Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a household appliance wherein the switches, located in the control unit, are provided to operate safely.
  • Switches such as relay and triac. These switches are of vital importance in terms of providing safety since they, for example, provide the door to remain closed while the washing machine operates. Therefore, in accordance with the safety standards, a failure detection circuit, which controls whether the switch operates properly or not, is certainly situated in the switch driving circuits. However, in the situation that a failure occurs also in this failure detection circuit, the failure circuit cannot detect the failure that occurs in the switch and cannot transmit the message saying that a failure occurred, to the control unit. This situation causes a safety problem.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a household appliance wherein the switch, providing the components to be driven, is guaranteed to operate safely.
  • the household appliance realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises switches and detection circuits which perform the failure control of the switches.
  • the control unit does not drive the switch for a short time and controls the operation of the detection circuit.
  • the detection of the failure existence is controlled by creating an artificial failure.
  • the switch is a triac which allows the current to flow bidirectionally.
  • the switch is a relay.
  • control unit is operated by a microprocessor.
  • the household appliance can be a washing machine, a dryer or a dishwasher.
  • the operation of the switch the failure-free operation of which is critical in terms of safety, and of the detection circuit, which controls the failure of the switch, without any problems is guaranteed.
  • the household appliance (1) comprises more than one electrically controlled component (2) such as motor, door, valve and pump, an electronic switch (3) which provides the component (2) to be turned on and off, and a detection circuit (4) which controls whether the switches (3) of the door and pump operate properly or not ( Figure 1 ).
  • component (2) such as motor, door, valve and pump
  • electronic switch (3) which provides the component (2) to be turned on and off
  • detection circuit (4) which controls whether the switches (3) of the door and pump operate properly or not ( Figure 1 ).
  • the components (2) are controlled by the electronic switch (3).
  • the switch (3) provides electricity to be supplied to the components (2) by being driven by the commands received from the control unit (5).
  • the switches (3) are controlled by the detection circuit (4).
  • the household appliance (1) of the present invention comprises a control unit (5)
  • the detection circuit (4) While the detection circuit (4) operates failure-free, it controls whether the switch (3) operates properly or not, and when a failure occurs in the switch (3), it transmits a message saying that a failure occurred, to the control unit (5).
  • the control unit (5) does not drive the switch (3) for a short time, that is, creates an artificial failure in the switch (3), and controls whether the detection circuit (4) can detect the failure or not.
  • the period of time wherein the control unit (5) does not drive the switch (3) for test purposes is a period of time which does not change the on or off situation of the switch (3) and which does not affect the operation of the component (2).
  • the control unit (5) can control the operation of the detection circuit (4) by not driving the switch (3) for a short time at certain periods.
  • the control unit (5) determines that there is a failure in the detection circuit (4).
  • the control unit (5) controls the output signal (Vout) of the detection circuit (4) and determines that there is a problem if there is no change in the output signal (Vout) while not driving the switch (3).
  • control unit (5) when the control unit (5) detects a failure in the detection circuit (4), it terminates the program and provides a failure signal to be given.
  • the control unit (5) drives the switch (3) by the impulse signal (Vin) oscillating between (-5V- 0V) ( Figure 2 and 3 ).
  • the detection circuit (4) is connected to the switch (3), and when the switch (3) is driven (T1) and not driven (T2) by the control unit (5), different signals at its output (Vout) are observed ( Figures 4 and 5 ).
  • the control unit (5) drives (T1) the switch (3), the output signal (Vout) of the detection circuit (4) is read as -2,5V and the detection circuit (4) transmits a no failure-message to the control unit (5) ( Figures 2 and 4 ).
  • the control unit (5) receives this signal, it determines that the detection circuit (4) is not faulty.
  • the control unit (5) does not drive (T2) the switch (3), the input signal (Vin) of the switch (3) is 0V ( Figure 3 ).
  • the control unit (5) When the control unit (5) does not drive (T2) the switch (3), the output signal (Vout) becomes the impulse signal oscillating between (-5V - 0V) and the detection circuit (4) transmits a message saying that a failure occurred, to the control unit (5) ( Figure 4 ). If the control unit (5) measures the required values in the output signal (Vout) of the detection circuit (4) while driving (T1) and not driving (T2) the switch (3), it concludes that the detection circuit (4) operates properly ( Figure 4 ).
  • the control unit (5) when the control unit (5) does not drive (T2) the switch (3), the output signal (Vout) is measured -2,5V, that is, the same value as the output signal (Vout) measured while the switch (3) is driven (T1), whereas the output signal (Vout) is required to be the impulse signal oscillating between (-5V - 0V).
  • the detection circuit (4) detects the switch (3) as being driven although it is not, and transmits a signal as if the switch (3) is being driven ( Figures 2 and 5 ).
  • the control unit (5) since the control unit (5) does not receive the message saying that the switch (3) is not driven, from the detection circuit (4) although the control unit (5) does not drive the switch (3), the control unit (5) concludes that there is a failure in the detection circuit (4).
  • the switch (3) is not driven for a short time at a period, the data of which is stored in the memory of the microprocessor, and throughout this time, it is tested whether a change occurs in the detection circuit (4) or not.
  • the switch (3) is a triac which allows the current to flow bidirectionally ( Figure 2 ).
  • the switch (3) is a relay.
  • the household appliance (1) is a washing machine.
  • the switch (3) which controls the door of the washing machine, is controlled by the control unit (5) by not being driven for 3 periods at every 10 seconds. This 3 period-time is much shorter than the time required for the switch (3) to change to the on position after the electricity is cut off by the switch (3) not being driven.
  • the household appliance (1) is a laundry dryer.
  • the component (2) is the door or the pump.
  • the household appliance (1) is a dishwasher.
  • the component (2) is the pump.
  • control unit (5) is provided not to drive the switch (3) for a short time at certain periods and thus, the detection circuit (4) is provided to be controlled whether it can detect this artificial failure, created in the switch (3), or not.
  • the detection circuit (4) is provided to be controlled whether it can detect this artificial failure, created in the switch (3), or not.
