Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a heater in which power supply to a controller controlling a heating section is controlled, and relates to a hair care device including the heater.
  • One of such conventional techniques is a technique for a futon hot blower described in PTL 1, in which an energization control circuit turns a heater on and off based on signals from a microcomputer to control the temperature of the heater.
  • a direct-current power circuit is configured to give a driving power supply for driving a microcomputer and an energization control circuit when the blower is supplied with commercial power source.
  • the microcomputer and energization control circuit are given the driving power supply and are supplied with current regardless of whether or not the heater is on. Accordingly, the electric power is consumed even when the drawer does not blow hot air, thus causing high standby power consumption and increasing the operating cost.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a heater with reduced operating cost and a hair care device including the same.
  • a heater includes: a power supply section supplying predetermined power; a heating section which is supplied with power from the power supply section to be heated; a first power supply path for supplying the power from the power supply section to the heating section; a power control switch section which is inserted in the first power supply path and selectively supplies power to the heating section; a controller which is supplied with power from the power supply section and controls the selective power supply by the power control switch section; a second power supply path for supplying power from the power supply section to the controller; and a body switch section which is inserted in the second power supply path and selectively supplies power to the controlled.
  • Such a configuration reduces standby power consumption and therefore reduces operating cost.
  • the controller changes an energization period in which the heating section is energized, thereby changing an energization ratio of the heating section.
  • Such a configuration enables the temperature of the heating section to smoothly change and implements stable temperature control. This reduces unnecessary power consumption, thus achieving low power consumption. The operating cost can be therefore reduced.
  • the heater may further include a temperature detecting section for detecting temperature of the heating section.
  • the energization ratio of the heating section is changed based on a difference between a target setting temperature of the heating section and the temperature of the heating section detected by the temperature detecting section.
  • the temperature of the heating section can be controlled so as to quickly rise and not to vary a lot with respect to the setting temperature, implementing stable temperature control and achieving low power consumption..
  • the operating cost can be therefore reduced.
  • the controller calculates a change in temperature of the heating section per unit time and decreases the energization ratio when an increment in temperature increases while increasing the energization ratio when a decrement in temperature decreases.
  • the temperature of the heating section can be controlled so as not to vary a lot with respect to the setting temperature, implementing stable temperature control and achieving low power consumption.
  • the operating cost can be therefore reduced.
  • the controller may calculate a change in temperature of the heating section per unit time, calculate an amount of feedback negative-proportional to the calculated change in temperature, weight the change in temperature and the amount of feedback according to heat capacity of the heating section, and change the energization ratio based on the weighted change in temperature and amount of feedback.
  • Such a configuration allows stable temperature control to be performed for devices with different heat capacities, reducing the power consumption and reducing the operating cost.
  • a hair care device includes the heater according to the first aspect of the present invention.
  • Such a configuration can provide a hair care device in which the operating cost is reduced by reducing the stand-by power consumption.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a heater according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
  • the heater of Embodiment 1 includes a power supply section 1, a body switch section 2, a controller 3, a heating section 4, a temperature detecting section 5, and a power control switch section 6.
  • the power supply section 1 includes a direct-current (DC) power source with a predetermined power output or receives electric power supply from an alternate-current (AC) power source to supply electric power to the entire heater.
  • the body switch section 2 is connected to between the power supply section 1 and controller 3 and turns a switch on/off to control switching of power supply from the power supply section 1 to the controller 3.
  • the controller 3 receives power supply from the power supply section 1 through the body switch section 2.
  • the controller 3 controls switching (on/off) of the power control switch section 6 based on temperature of the heating section 4 to control driving current supplied to the heating section 4.
  • the heating section 4 is supplied with the driving current from the power supply section 1 through the power control switch section 6 under the control of the controller 3 and generates heat to be heated so as to reach a previously set temperature.
  • the temperature detecting section 5 detects the temperature of the heating section 4 and gives the detected temperature to the controller 3.
  • the power control switch section 6 is directly connected to the power supply section 1 and controls the switching of power supply to the heating section 4
  • FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a specific configuration example of the heater illustrated in FIG. 1 .
  • the power supply section 1 is composed of a DC power supply VCC supplying a predetermined electric power.
  • the body switch section 2 is composed of a slide switch SW1, for example.
  • the power supply section 1 has a function of rectifying and smoothing the AC power into DC power.
  • the controller 3 includes a microcomputer M1 having a CPU, a storage unit, input/output units, and the like, which are resources necessary for a computer controlling various operating processes based on programs.
  • the controller 3 includes a resistor R1 connected to the temperature detecting section 5 in series between the DC power supply VCC and temperature detecting section 5.
  • the heating section 4 is composed of a resistor R.
  • the temperature detecting section 5 is composed of a thermistor R2.
  • the voltage of the DC power supply VCC is divided by the resistor R1 and the thermistor R2: The divided voltage obtained at a connection point where the resistor R1 and thermistor R2 are connected in series is given to the microcomputer M1 as a temperature detection signal.
  • the power control switch section 6 is composed of a thyristor Q connected to between the heating section 4 and DC power supply VCC. Switching of the thyristor Q is controlled with gate current thereof which is controlled by the microcomputer M1.
  • the DC power supply VCC supplies the microcomputer M1 with rated current previously set for the microcomputer M1 to activate the microcomputer M1. Thereafter, the divided voltage obtained by dividing the voltage of the DC power supply VCC with the resistor R1 and thermistor R2 is given to the microcomputer M1.
  • the microcomputer M1 compares the divided voltage and a voltage value obtained by converting the setting temperature of the heating section 4 (heating target temperature). The setting temperature is previously determined as a predetermined value and is stored in the storage unit of the microcomputer M1 or the like.
  • the microcomputer M1 gives a high-level switching control signal to the thyristor Q. This causes the thyristor Q to be turned from a not-conducting state to a conducting state, thus supplying the driving current from the DC power supply VCC to the resistor R of the heating unit 4.
  • the heating section 4 thus generates heat, and the temperature of the heating section 4 gradually increases from the room temperature as illustrated in FIG. 3 .
  • the switching control signal given from the microcomputer M1 to the thyristor Q changes from high (H) to low (L).
  • the thyristor Q is turned from the conducting state to a not-conducting state to shut off the driving current supplied to the heating section 4.
  • the heat generation of the heating section 4 is stopped, and the temperature of the heating section 4 falls.
  • the power control switch section 6 is off when the body switch section 2 is off and the controller 3 is not supplied with electric power. This prevents current from the power supply section 1 from being supplied to the controller 3 and power control switch 6 when the power body switch section 2 is off. It is therefore possible to reduce standby power consumption and therefore reduce operating cost.
  • the controller 3 is not supplied with electric power when the body switch section 2 is off and the heater does not work. This can prevent the controller 3 from being affected by noise or the like and causing errors. Furthermore, it is avoided that the driving current supplied to the heating section 4 is conducted to the body switch section 2. Accordingly, the operating current of the microcomputer M1, which is smaller than the driving current supplied to the heating section 4, is applied to the body switch section 2.
  • the body switch section 2 can be composed of a switch with a smaller rated current in Embodiment 1 than that in the case where the driving current for the heating section 4 is conducted to the body switch section 2. Accordingly, the heater can be miniaturized.
  • FIG. 4 is a time chart in temperature control employed in a heater of Embodiment 2 of the present invention.
  • the switching control signal which is given from the microcomputer M1 to the gate terminal of the thyristor Q, changes from H to L, or from L to H according to the temperature of the heating section 4 as illustrated in FIG. 3 .
  • Embodiment 2 is characterized in that the switching of the thyristor Q is controlled according to energization (on/off) patterns previously set.
  • the switching control signal supplied from the microcomputer M1 to the gate terminal of the thyristor Q includes six patterns of energization periods illustrated in FIG. 4 , patterns 0 to 5. Specifically, these patterns have energization periods and ratios for unit period as follows:
  • the switching control signals having the different energization patterns are properly selected and combined to be supplied to the thyristor Q.
  • the energization ratio is changed by intermittently controlling energization of the heating section 4.
  • the temperature of the heating section 4 can be controlled more accurately than the simple on/off control which supplies the driving current to the heating section 4 if the temperature of the heating section 4 is not more than the setting temperature and shuts off the driving current to the heating section 4 if the temperature of the heating section 4 exceeds the setting temperature.
  • the temperature control can be therefore improved.
  • the temperature of the heating section 4 smoothly changes and does not vary a lot, thus implementing stable temperature control. It is therefore possible to reduce unnecessary power consumption and achieve low power consumption, thus reducing the operating cost.
  • FIG. 5 is a time chart for temperature control employed in a heater of Embodiment 3 of the present invention.
  • Embodiment 3 is characterized by selecting a pattern from the energization patterns illustrated in FIG. 4 based on the difference between the setting temperature of the heating section 4 and the current temperature of the heating section 4 detected by a thermistor R2 constituting the temperature detecting section 5.
  • the heating section 4 is at room temperature after the body switch section 2 is turned from the OFF state to the ON state, the current temperature of the heating section 4 is much different from the setting temperature thereof. Accordingly, if the temperature of the heating section 4 is not more than (the setting temperature - 8°C), for example, the pattern 5 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected to set the energization ratio to 1.
  • the pattern 4 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected to reduce the energization ratio to 1/2. Subsequently, if the temperature of the heating section 4 further increases and reaches (the setting temperature 6°C), the pattern 3 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected to set the energization ratio to 1/3. Similarly, if the temperature of the heating section 4 reaches (the setting temperature - 4°C), the pattern 2 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected to set the energization ratio to 1/4. If the temperature of the heating section 4 reaches (the setting temperature - 2°C), the pattern 1 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected to set the energization ratio to 1/5.
  • the pattern 0 is selected so as not to energize the heating section 4, and such a state is maintained until the temperature of the heating section 4 falls to the setting temperature or below.
  • the pattern 1 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected to again start energization with the energization ratio of 1/5.
  • the pattern 2 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected at a temperature of (the setting temperature - 2°C) to set the energization ratio to 1/4
  • the pattern 3 illustrated in FIG. 4 is selected at a temperature of (the setting temperature - 4°C) to set the energization ratio to 1/3.
  • the temperature of the heating section 4 is controlled so as to converge to the setting temperature.
  • the temperature of the heating section 4 sometimes cannot be maintained without energization even after the temperature of the heating section 4 exceeds the setting temperature. In such a case, energization of the heating section 4 is continued even after the temperature of the heating section 4 exceeds the setting temperature.
  • Embodiment 3 when the temperature of the heating section 4 is considerably lower than the setting temperature, the temperature of the heating section 4 is quickly raised by setting the energization ratio to 1. Moreover, as the temperature of the heating section 4 increases to the setting temperature, the energization ratio is decreased in a stepwise manner. This prevents a rapid rise in temperature of the heating section 4 and avoids overshoot. Furthermore, when the temperature of the heating section 4 falls from the setting temperature, the energization ratio is increased as the difference between the temperature of the heating section 4 and the setting temperature thereof increases. The temperature of the heating section 4 can be thus raised close to the target temperature.
  • Such temperature control executed by the microcomputer M1 can provide a quick rise of the temperature of the heating section 4 and prevent the temperature of the heating section 4 from varying a lot with respect to the setting temperature. This leads to stable temperature control and reduces unnecessary power consumption, thus reducing the power consumption and therefore reducing the operating cost.
  • FIG. 6 is a time chart in temperature control employed in a heater according to Embodiment 4 of the present invention.
  • Embodiment 4 is characterized by adding an amount of feedback to selection of the energization pattern employed in Embodiment 3 above.
  • the microcomputer M1 stores the temperature of the heating section 4 measured a unit time before as a previous temperature and calculates the difference between the stored previous temperature and current temperature of the heating section 4. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 6 , when the difference between the stored previous temperature and current temperature of the heating section 4 is 0, the change in temperature is represented as 0. If the current temperature is 1°C higher than the previous temperature, the change in temperature is represented as +1. If the current temperature is 2°C higher than the previous temperature, the change in temperature is represented as +2. If the current temperature is 1°C lower than the previous temperature, the change in temperature is represented as -1 If the current temperature is 2°C lower than the previous temperature, the change in temperature is represented as -2.
  • the unit time is previously set to an arbitrary time.
  • the microcomputer M1 calculates the amount of feed back which is negative-proportional to the change in temperature. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 6 , if the change in temperature is 0, the amount of feedback is set to 0. Similarly, the amount of feedback is set to -1, -2, +1, and +2 for changes in temperature of+1, +2, -1, and -2, respectively.
  • the energization patterns 0 to 5 which are the same as those of Embodiment 3, are quantified to numerical values. Specifically, the patterns 0 to 5 are represented as 0, +1, +2, +3, +4, and +5, respectively.
  • the microcomputer M1 adds up the thus-calculated amount of feedback and the numerical value obtained by quantifying the energization pattern and selects another energization pattern corresponding to the numerical value resulting from the addition. If the result of the addition is a negative value, the pattern 0 is selected.
  • an energization pattern is selected for the change in temperature of the heating section 4 based on the difference between the current temperature of the heating section 4 and the setting temperature thereof in a similar manner to Embodiment 3.
  • the amount of feedback is calculated for the selected energization pattern, and then the calculated amount of feedback is added to the numerical value for the selected energization pattern.
  • the amount of feedback is set to 0.
  • the numerical value +5 of the selected pattern is added to the amount of feedback of 0, and the pattern 5 corresponding to the sum of +5 is selected.
  • the amount of feedback is set to -1.
  • the amount of feedback of -1 is added to the numerical value of +5 for the pattern 5 selected, and the pattern 4 corresponding to the sum of +4 is then selected.
  • the energization pattern is determined by adding the amount of feedback to the energization pattern selected by the method employed in Embodiment 3.
  • the temperature of the heating section 4 is prevented from excessively rising much above the target temperature-
  • the detected increment in temperature of the heating section 4 per unit time is larger than a real increment in temperature of the heating section 4 per unit time because the temperature detected by the temperature detecting section 5 is much different from real temperature of the heating section 4. Even in such a case, the temperature of the heating section 4 is prevented from excessively rising much above the target temperature.
  • the temperature of the heating section 4 is prevented from excessively falling much below the target temperature.
  • the detected decrement in temperature of the heating section 4 per unit time is larger than a real decrement in temperature of the heating section 4 per unit time because the temperature detected by the temperature detecting section 5 is much different from real temperature of the heating section 4. Even in such a case, the temperature of the heating section 4 is prevented from excessively falling much below the target temperature.
  • the aforementioned temperature control executed by the microcomputer 1. allows the temperature of the heating section 4 to quickly rise and prevents the temperature of the heating section 4 from varying a lot with respect to the setting temperature. This leads to stable temperature control and reduces unnecessary power consumption, thus reducing the power consumption and therefore reducing the operating cost.
  • Embodiment 5 of the present invention is described. Compared to Embodiment 4 previously described, Embodiment 5 is characterized by weighting the change in temperature and the amount of feedback according to heat capacity of the heating section 4 for adjustment.
  • the microcomputer M1 adds up a product of a coefficient A and the difference between the current temperature and setting temperature of the heating section 4 and a product of a coefficient B and the amount of feedback calculated corresponding to the difference between the current temperature and setting temperature of the heating section 4.
  • the microcomputer M1 selects an energization pattern corresponding to the result of the addition.
  • the magnitude relation between the coefficients A and B which are weighting coefficients, is set according to the heat capacity of the heating section 4.
  • the coefficients A and B are set as: the coefficient A ⁇ the coefficient B for large heat capacity of the heating section 4; and the coefficient A > the coefficient B for small heat capacity of the heating section 4.
