An example of an operating parameter is the temperature of the household refrigerator or its cold room, so that for example the desired temperature of the cold room can be set and possibly displayed with the display / input module. But it may also be possible that the display / input module displays the actual temperature of the cold room.

Das erfindungsgemäße Haushaltskältegerät schafft demnach eine modularisierte Lösung für die Steuerung/Regelung eines Haushaltskältegerätes mit einem Eisbereiter und/oder Wasserspender. Das Steuerungs-/Regelungssystem weist das Bussystem, z.B. einen sogenannten Dbuss-II auf. Das Steuerungs-/Regelungssystem weist gegebenenfalls separate Steuer-/Regelmodule auf, das Eisbereiter und/oder Wasserspendersystem verwendet jedoch gegebenenfalls dieselbe Anzeige und dasselbe Eingabemodul, das auch für die Steuerung/Regelung des Haushaltskältegerätes als solches vorgesehen ist.The domestic refrigerator according to the invention thus provides a modularized solution for the control / regulation of a household refrigerator with an icemaker and / or water dispenser.

Damit das Anzeige-/Eingabemodul 12 mit dem ersten Elektronikmodul 20 kommunizieren kann, umfasst die Gefrier-Kühlkombination 1 ein Bussystem 21, das u.A. das Anzeige-/ Eingabemodul 12 mit dem ersten Elektronikmodul 20 verbindet. Das Bussystem 21 weist insbesondere einen Datenbus (Lese-/Schreibleitung) 22 zum Austausch von Daten zwischen dem Anzeige-/Eingabemodul 12 und dem ersten Elektronikmodul 20 auf. Im Falle des vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiels weist das Bussystem 21 noch ein oder mehrere, vorzugsweise zwei, Energieleitungen 23, 24 auf, die vorgesehen sind, das Anzeige-/ Eingabemodul 12 und das erste Elektronikmodul 20 mit elektrischer Energie zu ver-sorgen.So that the display /

Damit das Anzeige-/Eingabemodul 12 mit dem zweiten Elektronikmodul 25 kommunizieren kann, ist das Eisbereiterelektronikmodul 25 ebenfalls am Bussystem 21 angeschlossen. Somit können das Anzeige-/Eingabemodul 12 und das zweite Elektronikmodul 25 über den Datenbus 22 Daten austauschen und miteinander kommunizieren. Im Falle des vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiels ist das zweite Elektronikmodul 25 auch an den Energieleitungen 23, 24 angeschlossen, um mit elektrischer Energie versorgt zu werden.So that the display /
Durch diese Kopplung des zweiten Elektronikmoduls 25, das für die Kontrolle des Wasserspenders und/oder des Eisbereiters zuständig ist, und des Anzeige-/Eingabemoduls 12 an das erste Elektronikmodul 20 über ein gemeinsames Bussystem, wie z.B. 21, ist in einfacher Weise eine zuverlässige Einstellung von ein oder mehreren Betriebsparametern des Wasserspenders und/oder des Eisbereiters am selben Bedienort wie die sonstigen Funktionseinstellungen, wie z.B. die Temperatureinstellung für das Kühlfach und Gefrierfach, des Gefrier-Kühlkombinationsgeräts sichergestellt. Insbesondere ist das Zusammenspiel der Funktionen der verschiedenen Funktionskomponenten des Gefrier-Kühlkombinationsgeräts vereinfacht.By this coupling of the second
Verallgemeinert betrachtet benutzt also das zweite Elektronikmodul 25 über das Datenbussystem 21 des ersten Elektronikmoduls 20 dasselbe gemeinsame, d.h. einheitlich vorgesehene, Anzeige-/ Eingabemodul 12 wie die übrigen Funktionskomponenten, wie z.B. der Kältekreislauf für das Kältefach oder das Gefrierfach, des Gefrier-Kühlkombi-nationsgeräts. Ein Tastendruck auf eine der Tasten 18, 19, 13-16 initiiert jeweils mindestens ein Steuersignal, das über das gemeinsame Bussystem 21 an das erste Elektronikmodul 20 übertragen wird. Dieses leitet Steuersignale, die das zweite Elektronikmodul 25 betreffen, an dieses über das Bussystem 21 weiter: In umgekehrter Richtung übermittelt das erste Elektronikmodul 20 ein Steuersignal, das vom zweiten Elektronikmodul 25 ausgeht, über das Bussystem 21 an das gemeinsame Anzeige-/Eingabemodul 12 weiter.In general, therefore, the second
Da das zweite Elektronikmodul 25 steuerungstechnisch an das erste Elektronikmodul 20 über das Bussystem 21 angekoppelt ist, und das Anzeige-/Eingabemodul 12 mitnutzt, lassen sich nun die Eisbereiter-/Wasserspenderkomponenten in einfacher Weise in verschiedene Gefrier-Kühlkombinationsgerätetypen einbauen und mittels dem sowieso schon vorhandenen ersten Elektronikmodul steuern bzw. einstellen. Insbesondere ist durch diese Vereinheitlichung die Integration der Eisbereiter-/Wasserspenderkomponenten in neue Kältegeräte erleichtert.Since the second
