Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Erkennen eines Fehlers einer Messeinrichtung zur Erfassung der zugelaufenen Wassermenge in den Spülbehälter einer programmgesteuerten Geschirrspülmaschine mit einer Umwälzpumpe, mit einem Sensor zur Erfassung eines für den stabilen Betrieb der Umwälzpumpe notwendigen Mindestniveaus Nmin, und mit einer Auswerteschaltung zur Verarbeitung der von der Messeinrichtung und vom Niveausensor empfangenen Signale, und mit einer Einrichtung zur Begrenzung des in den Spülbehälter einfließenden Volumenstroms.The invention relates to a method for detecting a fault of a measuring device for detecting the accumulated amount of water in the washing container of a program-controlled dishwasher with a circulation pump, with a sensor for detecting a necessary for the stable operation of the circulating pump minimum level N min , and with an evaluation circuit for processing the signals received by the measuring device and the level sensor, and with a device for limiting the volume flow flowing into the washing container.
Es ist bei wasserführenden Haushaltsgeräten bekannt, die zur Durchführung des Programms benötigte Wassermenge durch Messeinrichtungen zu ermitteln und hierdurch festzulegen. Als Beispiel kann hier ein Flügelradzähler genannt werden, der in der Wasserzuleitung einer von der Anmelderin hergestellten und vertriebenen Geschirrspülmaschine G 892-4 SCi PLUS angeordnet ist und von dort elektrische Impulse an die Programmsteuerung abgibt, die vom Volumenstrom des zufließenden Wassers abhängig sind. Bedingt durch ein Klemmen oder Schleifen des Flügelradzählers in seiner Lagerung kann es zu Fehlfunktionen in der Mengenmessung kommen. In den vorgenannten Geschirrspülmaschinen wird deshalb zu Beginn des Wassereinlaufs geprüft, ob der Flügelradzähler Impulse abgibt. Hierdurch kann aber nur ein vollständiger Ausfall festgestellt werden. Ein Fehler, der sich durch die Abgabe von zu wenig Zählerimpulsen im Verhältnis zur eingelaufenen Wassermenge bemerkbar macht, kann nicht erkannt werden. Um die Auswirkungen eines solchen Fehlers zu mindern, wird die Wassereinlaufmenge durch eine sogenannte Stauscheibe im Magnetventil reguliert. Diese begrenzt ab einem Wasserdruck von 1 bar die Durchflussmenge auf ca. 5 Liter pro Minute (abhängig vom Öffnungsquerschnitt). Somit kann der mengengesteuerte Wasserzufluss zur Sicherheit durch eine Zeitsteuerung überlagert werden. Zusätzliche Sicherheit kann durch einen zweiten Niveausensor erlangt werden, der das Erreichen eines Überlaufniveaus erkennt und dann über eine in der Steuerung integrierte Auswerteschaltung das Magnetventil schließt. Ein Nachteil der Stauscheibe besteht darin, dass diese erst bei einem Wasserdruck von 1 bar wirkt. Bei niedrigeren Druckverhältnissen in der Wasserversorgung und gleichzeitigem Defekt des Flügelradzählers kann letzterer nicht erkannt werden und es fließt eine Wassermenge in den Spülbehälter, welche zu hoch ist und damit einen erhöhten Wasserbrauch und schlimmstenfalls das Überlaufen der Maschine zur Folge hat.It is known in water-conducting household appliances to determine the amount of water required by the implementation of the program by measuring devices and thereby determine. As an example, here an impeller counter can be mentioned, which is arranged in the water supply of a manufactured and sold by the Applicant dishwasher G 892-4 SCi PLUS and from there emits electrical pulses to the program control, which are dependent on the volume flow of the inflowing water. Due to a jamming or grinding of the impeller counter in its storage can lead to malfunction in the quantity measurement. In the above-mentioned dishwashers, therefore, it is checked at the beginning of the water inlet, whether the impeller emits pulses. As a result, only a complete failure can be detected. An error that makes itself felt by the delivery of too few meter pulses in relation to the amount of water introduced, can not be detected. In order to reduce the effects of such an error, the water inlet quantity is regulated by a so-called baffle plate in the solenoid valve. From a water pressure of 1 bar, this limits the flow rate to approx. 5 liters per minute (depending on the opening cross-section). Thus, the quantity-controlled water supply can be superimposed for safety by a time control. Additional safety can be achieved by a second level sensor, which detects the reaching of an overflow level and then closes the solenoid valve via an integrated in the control evaluation circuit. A disadvantage of the baffle plate is that it only works at a water pressure of 1 bar. At lower pressure conditions in the water supply and the same defect of the impeller counter, the latter can not be detected and it flows a quantity of water in the washing container, which is too high and thus has an increased water consumption and at worst the overrun of the machine result.

Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art zu offenbaren, bei dem auch ein Fehler in der Messeinrichtung zur Erfassung der zugelaufenen Wassermenge erkannt wird, welcher nicht deren vollständigen Ausfall zur Folge hat.The invention thus presents the problem to disclose a method of the type mentioned, in which an error in the measuring device for detecting the accumulated amount of water is detected, which does not result in their complete failure.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Problem durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der Erfindung ergibt sich aus dem nachfolgenden Unteranspruch.According to the invention, this problem is solved by a method having the features of patent claim 1. An advantageous development of the invention results from the following subclaim.
Die mit der Erfindung erreichbaren Vorteile bestehen neben der genauen Erkennung des vorbeschriebenen Fehlers darin, dass auf einen zweiten Niveausensor zur Erkennung eines Überlaufniveaus verzichtet werden kann.The advantages achievable with the invention are, in addition to the exact recognition of the above-described error, that it is possible to dispense with a second level sensor for detecting an overflow level.
Es hat sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, vor dem zweiten Füllschritt einen Zwischenabschnitt durchzuführen, in welchem dem Spülbehälter eine Teilmenge zugeführt wird, welche von der Messeinrichtung als vorgegebene Menge V3 identifiziert wird, wobei die Menge V3 einem Niveau entspricht, welches oberhalb des Mindestniveaus Nmin liegt; und in welchem dann die Umwälzpumpe für eine vorgegebene Zeit tU eingeschaltet wird und anschließend der Spülbehälter entleert wird. Hierdurch wird bei der Niveaumessung im zweiten Füllschritt der Einfluss der für das Benetzen des Spülguts abhängigen Wassermenge eliminiert, welche bekanntlich von der Art und Menge des Spülguts abhängt.It has proven to be advantageous to carry out an intermediate section before the second filling step, in which a partial amount is supplied to the washing container, which is identified by the measuring device as a predetermined amount V 3 , wherein the amount V 3 corresponds to a level above the minimum level N min is; and in which then the circulation pump for a predetermined time t U is turned on and then the washing container is emptied. As a result, in the level measurement in the second filling step, the influence of the amount of water that is dependent on the wetting of the ware is eliminated, which, as is known, depends on the type and quantity of ware.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend näher beschrieben. Die zur Durchführung des Verfahrens geeignete Geschirrspülmaschine besitzt in bekannter Weise ein Gehäuse, in dem ein frontseitig durch eine Tür verschließbarer Spülbehälter mit einer Ablaufwanne angeordnet ist. Die Tür ist an ihrem bodenseitigen Abschnitt um eine horizontal verlaufende Achse schwenkbar am Gerätekörper gelagert. Im Spülraum sind Geschirrkörbe vorhanden, denen Sprüharme zur Reinigung des abgestellten Geschirrs zugeordnet sind. Die Versorgung des Sprüharms mit Spülflüssigkeit erfolgt über eine Umwälzpumpe. Hierzu wird zu Beginn verschiedener Programmabschnitte über eine Zulaufleitung Wasser zum Spülbehälter zugeführt, zum Ende dieser Programmabschnitte erfolgt die Entleerung der Ablaufwanne über eine Entleerungspumpe. Die Einstellung der einzelnen Spülprogramme wird dem Benutzer durch verschiedene Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente ermöglicht, die Durchführung dieser Programme wird durch eine Programmsteuereinrichtung kontrolliert, wobei vorzugsweise eine Mikroprozessor-Steuerung zum Einsatz kommt.An embodiment of the invention will be described in more detail below. The dishwashing machine suitable for carrying out the method has, in a known manner, a housing in which a washing container, which can be closed at the front by a door, is arranged with a drain pan. The door is pivotally mounted on its bottom-side portion about a horizontally extending axis on the device body. In the dishwasher crockery baskets are available, which are associated with spray arms for cleaning the parked dishes. The supply of the spray arm with rinsing liquid via a circulation pump. For this purpose, water is supplied to the washing at the beginning of various program sections via a supply line, at the end of this program sections, the emptying of the drain pan via a drain pump. The adjustment of the individual wash programs is made possible for the user by various operating and display elements, the execution of these programs is controlled by a program control device, whereby preferably a microprocessor control is used.
Die Zulaufleitung kann mittels eines Magnetventils durch Stromzufuhr von der Mikroprozessor-Steuerung geöffnet werden, im stromlosen Zustand ist das Magnetventil und damit die Zulaufleitung geschlossen. Während der Öffnung des Ventils läuft in der Mikroprozessor-Steuerung ein Timer und misst die Zeit, in denen eine Stromzufuhr erfolgt. Diese Zeit wird im Folgenden als Füllzeit t bezeichnet. In der Zulaufleitung ist außerdem als Messeinrichtung zur Erfassung der zugelaufenen Wassermenge ein Flügelradzähler angeordnet. Dieser gibt Impulse an die Mikroprozessor-Steuerung, deren Anzahl proportional zu dem die Leitung passierenden Volumenstrom sind, so dass die Steuerung aus der Impulszahl bei bekanntem Querschnitt die eingelaufenen Wassermengen, nachfolgend als Vi bezeichnet, ermitteln kann.The supply line can be opened by means of a solenoid valve by supplying power from the microprocessor control, in the de-energized state, the solenoid valve and thus the supply line is closed. During opening of the valve, a timer runs in the microprocessor control and measures the time during which power is supplied. This time is referred to below as filling time t. In the supply line is also arranged as a measuring device for detecting the accumulated amount of water an impeller. This gives pulses to the microprocessor control, the number of which are proportional to the volume flow passing through the line, so that the control of the number of pulses with a known cross-section can determine the amount of water introduced, hereinafter referred to as V i .
Der Ablaufwanne ist ein Niveausensor zugeordnet, mit dem ein sogenanntes Mindestniveau Nmin erfasst werden kann, welches für einen stabilen Lauf der Umwälzpumpe erforderlich ist. Der Niveausensor kann als Druckschalter ausgeführt sein, welcher in der Leitung hinter der Umwälzpumpe angeordnet ist und bei Förderung von Wasser betätigt wird. Alternativ kann die Drehzahl oder andere Regelparameter der Umwälzpumpe ausgewertet werden, da diese sich niveauabhängig ändern.The drain pan is associated with a level sensor, with which a so-called minimum level N min can be detected, which is required for a stable running of the circulating pump. The level sensor may be designed as a pressure switch, which is arranged in the line behind the circulation pump and is actuated when pumping water. Alternatively, the speed or other control parameters of the circulation pump can be evaluated, since these change depending on the level.
Die Messgrößen des Timers, des Flügelradzählers und die Ausgangsgröße des Niveausensors werden in der Mikroprozessor-Steuerung durch eine integrierte Auswerteschaltung verarbeitet, um einen Fehler in der Erfassung der zugelaufenen Wassermenge in den Spülbehälter erkennen zu können. Dieses Verfahren arbeitet wie nachfolgend beschrieben:The measured variables of the timer, the vane counter and the output of the level sensor are processed in the microprocessor control by an integrated evaluation circuit in order to detect an error in the detection of the amount of accumulated water in the washing. This procedure works as follows:
Zunächst wird in einem ersten Füllschritt das Magnetventil solange geöffnet, bis der Flügelradzähler eine vorgegebene Wassermenge V1, beispielsweise 1 Liter, sensiert hat. Dabei wird, wie oben beschrieben, die für diesen Wassereinlauf benötigte Füllzeit t gemessen. Liegt die Füllzeit unterhalb einer vorgegebenen Mindestzeit tN, so erkennt die Auswerteschaltung, dass weder ein Defekt im Flügelradzähler noch ein zu geringer Leitungsdruck unter 1 bar vorliegt. Es erfolgt dann eine mengengesteuerte Befüllung des Spülbehälters, wobei zur Sicherung eine Zeitsteuerung überlagert wird.First, in a first filling step, the solenoid valve is opened until the impeller counter has sensed a predetermined amount of water V 1 , for example 1 liter. As described above, the filling time t required for this water inlet is measured. If the filling time is below a predetermined minimum time t N , the evaluation circuit detects that there is neither a defect in the impeller counter nor too low a line pressure below 1 bar. There then takes place a quantity-controlled filling of the washing container, whereby a time control is superimposed for the purpose of securing.
Wird die Mindestzeit tN überschritten so kann entweder ein Defekt des Flügelradzählers oder ein Niederdruck in der Hauswasserversorgung, d. h. ein Leitungsdruck unter 1 bar vorliegen. Um dies zu unterscheiden, wird vor der weiteren Kontrolle zunächst ein Zwischenabschnitt durchgeführt. Das Magnetventil wird so lange geöffnet bis dem Spülbehälter insgesamt eine weitere Teilmenge zugeführt ist, welche vom Flügelradzähler als Menge V3 , bspw. 3 Liter, identifiziert wird, wobei die Summe der Mengen V1 und V3 vorzugsweise einem Niveau entspricht, welches oberhalb des Mindestniveaus Nmin liegt und damit einen stabilen Betrieb der Unwälzpumpe ermöglicht. Anschließend wird die Umwälzpumpe für eine Minute eingeschaltet und Wasser durch die Sprüharme gepumpt; zuletzt wird der Spülbehälter durch Einschalten der Entleerungspumpe entleert. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass das in den Geschirrkörben vorhandene Spülgut benetzt ist, so dass die zum Benetzen notwendige Wassermenge nicht in die nachfolgenden Messungen eingeht.If the minimum time t N exceeded so either a defect of the impeller or a low pressure in the domestic water supply, ie a line pressure below 1 bar are present. To distinguish this, an intermediate section is first performed before the further control. The solenoid valve is opened until the rinsing tank a total of a further subset is supplied, which from the impeller counter as a set V 3 , for example. 3 liters, is identified, wherein the sum of the quantities V 1 and V 3 preferably corresponds to a level which is above the minimum level N min and thus enables stable operation of the unrolling pump. Subsequently, the circulation pump is turned on for one minute and water is pumped through the spray arms; Finally, the washing container is emptied by switching on the drain pump. This ensures that the items that are present in the dish racks are wetted, so that the amount of water necessary for wetting does not enter into the subsequent measurements.
Nach dem Abpumpen wird ein zweiter Füllschritt durchgeführt. Das Magnetventil wird geöffnet, bis in den Spülbehälter eine Teilmenge eingelaufen ist, welche vom Flügelradzähler bzw. der Mikroprozessor-Steuerung als vorgegebene Menge V2 identifiziert wird. Diese Menge V2 von ca. einem Liter entspricht einem Niveau, welches unterhalb des Mindestniveaus Nmin liegt. Danach wird die Umwälzpumpe zur Niveausensierung eingeschaltet. Schaltet der Druckwächter stabil, d. h. über einen längeren Zeitraum, so erkennt die Auswerteschaltung, dass die real im Spülbehälter befindliche Wassermenge größer als die vom Flügelradzähler sensierte und damit das Messergebnis definitiv falsch ist. Das laufende Programm wird abgebrochen und eine Fehlermeldung erzeugt. Schaltet der Druckwächter nur kurz nach dem Einschalten der Umwälzpumpe, erkennt die Auswerteschaltung, dass der Flügelradzähler intakt ist und lediglich der Leitungsdruck unter 1 bar liegt. Dann wird das Programm fortgesetzt und mengengesteuert die zur Durchführung des eingestellten Programms notwendige Wassermenge in den Spülbehälter eingefüllt.After pumping, a second filling step is performed. The solenoid valve is opened until a subset has run into the washing, which is identified by the impeller or the microprocessor control as a predetermined amount V 2 . This quantity V 2 of about one liter corresponds to a level which is below the minimum level N min . Thereafter, the circulation pump is switched on for level detection. If the pressure switch switches stable, ie over a longer period of time, then the evaluation circuit recognizes that the amount of water actually in the rinsing tank is greater than that sensed by the vane wheel meter and thus the measurement result is definitely wrong. The running program is aborted and an error message is generated. If the pressure switch only switches shortly after switching on the circulation pump, the evaluation circuit detects that the impeller counter is intact and only the line pressure is below 1 bar. Then the program is continued and volume controlled filled the necessary to carry out the set program amount of water in the washing.
Um die wiederholte Durchführung des Zwischenabschnitts und des zweiten Füllschritts bei intaktem Flügelradzähler und gleichzeitigem Niederdruck zu vermeiden, kann in der Mikroprozessor-Steuerung ein Speicher vorgesehen sein, in dem die im ersten Füllschritt benötigte Zeit zum Einfüllen der Menge V1 abgespeichert wird. Eine erneute Überprüfung findet nur dann statt, wenn die jeweils gemessene Zeit t für den aktuellen Füllschritt den abgespeicherten Wert um einen vorgegebenen Prozentsatz von bspw. 15% übersteigt.In order to avoid the repeated execution of the intermediate section and the second filling step with intact impeller counter and simultaneous low pressure, a memory may be provided in the microprocessor control, in which the time required in the first filling step for filling the amount V 1 is stored. A renewed check only takes place if the respectively measured time t for the current filling step exceeds the stored value by a predetermined percentage of, for example, 15%.
