Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Geschirrspülmaschine, insbesondere Haushaltsgeschirrspülmaschine, mit einem eine, insbesondere vorderseitige, Beladeöffnung aufweisenden Spülbehälter, einer die Beladeöffnung verschließenden Tür und wenigstens einem aus dem Spülbehälter heraus- und in diesen hineinbeweglichen Aufnahmekorb für Spülgut.The invention relates to a dishwasher, in particular domestic dishwasher, with a one, in particular front, loading port having rinse tank, the loading opening occlusive door and at least one out of the washing and in this movable into receiving basket for items to be washed.
Geschirrspülmaschinen weisen häufig optische Anzeigen auf, welche die Bedienung erleichtern sollen, beispielsweise indem sie zur Vornahme bestimmter Handlungen, beispielsweise zum Nachfüllen von Salz in einen Regeniersalzbehälter auffordern. Solche optische Anzeigen können z.B. an einer türfrontseitigen Blende, auf der Oberkante der Tür, auf der Innenwandung der Tür und/oder im Spülbehälter vorgesehen sein.Dishwashers often have visual displays which are intended to facilitate operation, for example by prompting them to perform certain operations, for example to replenish salt in a regeneration salt container. Such visual displays may e.g. be provided on a door front panel, on the upper edge of the door, on the inner wall of the door and / or in the washing.
Die
Die
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Geschirrspülmaschine der eingangs genannten Art vorzuschlagen, die hinsichtlich der Bedienung mindestens eines Aufnahmekorbs für Spülgut verbessert ist.The object of the invention is to propose a dishwasher of the aforementioned type, which is improved with regard to the operation of at least one receiving basket for items to be washed.
Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß Anspruch 1 durch folgende Geschirrspülmaschine gelöst: Geschirrspülmaschine, insbesondere Haushaltsgeschirrspülmaschine, mit einem eine, insbesondere vorderseitige, Beladeöffnung aufweisenden Spülbehälter, einer die Beladeöffnung verschließenden Tür und wenigstens einem aus dem Spülbehälter heraus- und in diesen hineinbeweglichen Aufnahmekorb für Spülgut, wobei die Geschirrspülmaschine eine, insbesondere berührungslos arbeitende, Einrichtung zur Erkennung wenigstens einer Verfahrposition des Aufnahmekorbs und eine Steuereinrichtung umfasst, die wenigstens eine in und/oder an der Geschirrspülmaschine angeordnete Lichtquelle in Abhängigkeit von der wenigstens einen Verfahrposition des Aufnahmekorbs steuert,
- wobei mehrere Lichtquellen vorhanden sind, und wobei die Steuereinrichtung so ausgestaltet ist, dass sie in Abhängigkeit vom Verfahrweg des Aufnahmekorbs eine unterschiedliche Anzahl von Lichtquellen, insbesondere mit zunehmendem Verfahrweg des Aufnahmekorbs eine zunehmende Anzahl von Lichtquellen, ansteuert,
- und/oder wobei die Steuereinrichtung so ausgestaltet ist, dass sie eine langgestreckte Lichtquelle oder in einer Reihe angeordnete Lichtquellen so ansteuert, dass sich die Veränderung eines Parameters der langgestreckten Lichtquelle oder der in einer Reihe angeordneten Lichtquellen in Bewegungsrichtung des Aufnahmekorbs fortpflanzt.
- wherein a plurality of light sources are present, and wherein the control device is designed such that it, depending on the travel path of the receiving basket, a different number of light sources, in particular with increasing travel of the receiving basket an increasing number of light sources, drives,
- and / or wherein the control means is arranged to drive an elongated light source or series-arranged light sources such that the variation of a parameter of the elongated light source or the arrayed light sources propagates in the direction of movement of the receiving basket.
Eine solche Ausgestaltung eröffnet völlig neue Möglichkeiten für eine optisch basierte Benutzerunterstützung und Benutzerführung, insbesondere Nutzeranimation. So kann der Benutzer beispielsweise durch das Aufleuchten einer Lichtquelle darauf aufmerksam gemacht werden, dass der Aufnahmekorb etwa nach dem Beladen mit Spülgut nicht vollständig in den Spülbehälter hinein verfahren wurde. Auf diese Weise kann verhindert werden, dass die Tür beim Schließen gegen den Aufnahmekorb prallt und sich dabei Spülgut aus seiner Halterung löst und beschädigt wird. Eine ähnliche Situation ist auch beim Ausfahren des Aufnahmekorbs gegeben, wenn dieser mit zu hoher Geschwindigkeit in seine äußere Endlage gefahren wird. Denn auch hierbei könnte sich Spülgut lösen. Weiterhin bietet die vorgeschlagene Ausgestaltung die Möglichkeit, den Fortgang des Aus- und Einfahrens des Aufnahmekorbs optisch nachzubilden und anzuzeigen.Such an embodiment opens up completely new possibilities for optically based user support and user guidance, in particular user animation. Thus, the user can be made aware, for example, by lighting up a light source, that the receiving basket was not moved completely into the washing container, for example, after being loaded with items to be washed. In this way, it can be prevented that the door bounces against the receiving basket when closing and thereby wicks items from its holder and is damaged. A similar situation is also given when extending the receiving basket when it is driven at too high a speed in its outer end position. Because even this could be washed dishes. Furthermore, the proposed embodiment offers the possibility of optically simulating the progress of the extension and retraction of the receiving basket and display.
Zweckmäßigerweise ist die Steuereinrichtung derart ausgebildet, dass durch die Steuereinrichtung mindestens ein Parameter der wenigstens einen Lichtquelle steuerbar, insbesondere deren Beleuchtungsstärke, Farbe, Leuchtmodus, Ein- und/oder Ausschaltzeitpunkt, und/oder Taktung variierbar, ist. Dadurch kann eine Veränderung der jeweiligen Ortsposition des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs durch eine Veränderung mindestens eines Parameters der ein oder mehreren Lichtquellen dynamisch signalisiert bzw. angezeigt werden. Dies verbessert die Benutzerführung. Insbesondere lässt sich dadurch die Handhabung des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs erleichtern.
Ein in Abhängigkeit von der jeweiligen Verfahrposition des Aufnahmekorbs steuerbarer Parameter einer Lichtquelle ist also z.B. deren Betriebszustand, d.h. die Lichtquelle kann, um den Benutzer auf eine bestimmte Verfahrposition des Aufnahmekorbs aufmerksam zu machen, einfach eingeschaltet bzw. zum Leuchten gebracht werden. Weiterhin kann ein Hinweis auf die jeweilige Verfahrposition des Aufnahmekorbs dadurch erfolgen, dass die Beleuchtungsstärke oder die Farbe einer Lichtquelle verändert werden. Im Falle einer Farbänderung ist der Einsatz von Farbfiltern denkbar oder es werden Lichtquellen vorgesehen, die Beleuchtungsmittel wie z.B. LEDs unterschiedlicher Farbe aufweisen, wobei eine bestimmtes Beleuchtungsmittel oder - zur Erzeugung einer Mischfarbe - mehrere Beleuchtungsmittel angesteuert werden.The control device is expediently designed such that at least one parameter of the at least one light source can be controlled by the control device, in particular its illuminance, color, lighting mode, switching on and / or off time, and / or timing can be varied. As a result, a change in the respective spatial position of the respective receiving basket can be signaled or displayed dynamically by a change in at least one parameter of the one or more light sources. This improves the user guidance. In particular, this makes the handling of the respective receiving basket easier.
A parameter of a light source which can be controlled as a function of the respective movement position of the receiving basket is thus, for example, its operating state, ie the light source can simply be switched on or lit up in order to make the user aware of a certain movement position of the receiving cage. Furthermore, an indication of the respective movement position of the receiving basket can take place in that the illuminance or the color of a light source is changed. In the case of a color change, the use of color filters is conceivable or light sources are provided which have illumination means, such as LEDs of different colors, whereby a specific illumination means or - to generate a mixed color - a plurality of illumination means are activated.
Wenn insbesondere eine berührungslos arbeitende Einrichtung für die Positionserkennung des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs verwendet wird, ist eine aufwendige Anpassung des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs nicht erforderlich, so dass Aufnahmekörbe mit bisheriger Ausgestaltung und Lagerung unverändert beibehalten werden können.
Die berührungslos arbeitende Einrichtung zur Positionserkennung kann beispielsweise induktiv oder kapazitiv arbeiten und entsprechende Sensoren verwenden. Bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung wird ein Hall-Sensor eingesetzt, wobei am Aufnahmekorb wenigstens ein mit dem genannten Sensor zusammenwirkender Magnet angebracht ist.If, in particular, a non-contact device is used for the position detection of the respective receiving basket, a complex adaptation of the respective receiving basket is not required, so that receiving baskets can be maintained unchanged with previous design and storage.
The non-contact device for position detection can, for example, work inductively or capacitively and use corresponding sensors. In a preferred embodiment, a Hall sensor is used, wherein the receiving basket at least one cooperating with said sensor magnet is mounted.
Zweckmäßigerweise ist die wenigstens eine Lichtquelle außerhalb des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs in und/oder an der Geschirrspülmaschine angeordnet und in Abhängigkeit von der wenigstens einen Verfahrposition des Aufnahmekorbs variierbar. Insbesondere ist die jeweilige Lichtquelle im Spülbehälter, bevorzugt in und/oder an dessen Boden und/oder dessen Seitenwänden, und/oder insbesondere in und/oder an derjenigen Innenwandfläche der Tür vorgesehen, die in deren Schließendstellung dem Behandlungsinnenraum des Spülbehälters zugewandt ist.The at least one light source is expediently arranged outside the respective receiving basket in and / or on the dishwasher and can be varied as a function of the at least one movement position of the receiving basket. In particular, the respective light source is provided in the washing container, preferably in and / or at its bottom and / or its side walls, and / or in particular in and / or on that inner wall surface of the door, which faces the treatment interior of the washing container in its closing end position.
Dadurch ist es in einfacher Weise ermöglicht, unter einer Vielzahl von praktischen Gegebenheiten den Innenraum der Geschirrspülmaschine, zu dem insbesondere der Behandlungsraum der Geschirrspülmaschine, die in der Schließendstellung der Tür dem Behandlungsraum zugewandte Innenwandfläche der Tür sowie sonstige Bereiche zählen, die in der Schließendstellung der Tür für einen Benutzer von vorne betrachtet unsichtbar, d.h. verdeckt sind, für den Benutzer ansprechend zu illuminieren und/oder sichtbar zu machen. Im Gegensatz zu einer Geschirrspülmaschine mit einem beweglichen Aufnahmekorb, der mit einer Lichtquelle bestückt ist und die zu ihrer elektrischen Verbindung mit einer elektrischen Stromversorgungsleitung aufwendige Koppelmechanismen benötigen würde, genügt bei der erfindungsgemäßen Geschirrspülmaschine eine stationäre, d.h. feststehende Unterbringung der ein oder mehreren Lichtquellen und deren zugehörigen, elektrischen Anschlüsse.This makes it possible in a simple manner, among a variety of practical conditions, the interior of the dishwasher to which in particular the treatment room of the dishwasher, which count in the final closing position of the door the treatment room facing inner wall surface of the door and other areas in the final closing position of the door invisible to a user viewed from the front, ie are concealed, for the user to illuminate and / or make visible. In contrast to a dishwasher with a movable receiving basket, which is equipped with a light source and would require to their electrical connection to an electrical power supply line consuming coupling mechanisms, sufficient in the dishwasher according to the invention, a stationary, i. fixed housing of the one or more light sources and their associated electrical connections.
Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsvariante ist vorgesehen, dass mehrere Lichtquellen vorhanden sind und dass die Steuereinrichtung so ausgestaltet ist, dass sie mit zunehmendem Verfahrweg des Aufnahmekorbs eine zunehmende Anzahl von Lichtquellen ansteuert. Auf diese Weise entsteht, wenn in bevorzugter Weise die Lichtquellen in einer sich in Bewegungsrichtung des Aufnahmekorbs erstreckenden Reihe angeordnet sind, ein sich optisch veränderndes Leucht- bzw. Lichtband. Die Lichtquellen können dabei von der Steuereinrichtung so angesteuert werden, dass sich die Anzahl der erleuchteten Lichtquellen in Ausfahrrichtung des Aufnahmekorbs vergrößert und in Einfahrrichtung verkleinert. Die durch die Lichtquellen gebildete Reihe bzw. ein Leuchtband verlängert sich somit in Ausfahrrichtung und verkürzt sich in Einfahrrichtung. Denkbar ist aber auch, dass die Länge des Leuchtbandes bzw. der Lichtquellenreihe während der Ein- oder Ausfahrbewegung des Aufnahmekorbs gleichbleibt, dass aber in Abhängigkeit von dem Fortgang der Ein- oder Auszugsbewegung des Aufnahmekorbs das Leuchtband bzw. die Lichtquellenreihe insgesamt seine Farbe ändert oder ein leuchtender, beispielsweise farbiger Abschnitt des Leuchtbandes sich entsprechend der Bewegung des Aufnahmekorbs vor oder zurückbewegt. Ggf. kann anstelle der Vielzahl von in einer Reihe angeordneten Lichtquellen lediglich eine langgestreckte Lichtquelle wie z.B. ein aktiv leuchtender Leuchtstreifen vorgesehen sein, der beispielsweise durch ein oder mehrere LED- oder OLED- Leuchtelemente gebildet ist.In a particularly preferred embodiment, it is provided that a plurality of light sources are present and that the control device is designed so that it controls an increasing number of light sources with increasing travel of the receiving basket. In this way, when the light sources are arranged in a preferred manner in a row extending in the direction of movement of the receiving basket, an optically changing light or light band is formed. The light sources can be controlled by the control device so that increases the number of illuminated light sources in the extension of the receiving basket and reduced in the retraction direction. The row formed by the light sources or a light strip thus extends in the extension direction and shortens in the retraction direction. It is also conceivable that the length of the light strip or the light source row remains the same during the retraction or extension movement of the receiving basket, but that the light strip or the light source row changes or changes its color as a function of the progress of the retraction or withdrawal movement of the receiving basket luminous, for example, colored portion of the light strip moves forward or backward according to the movement of the receiving basket. Possibly. can instead of the variety arranged in a row of light sources only an elongated light source such as an actively illuminated light strip may be provided, which is formed for example by one or more LED or OLED lighting elements.
Vorzugsweise ist eine Reihe von Lichtquellen oder ein Leuchtband in unmittelbarer Nähe zu einer den Aufnahmekorb in Ein- und Ausfahrrichtung führenden Führungsbahn, also möglichst an diese angrenzend angeordnet, so dass es die Einschubebene des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs bzw. die Führungsbahnen während des Ein- und Ausfahrens des Aufnahmekorbs hervorhebt. Bei einem seitlich an den Seitenwänden des Spülbehälters gelagerten Aufnahmekorb sind die Führungsbahnen meist durch Teleskopauszüge gebildet, damit der Aufnahmekorb ausreichend weit aus dem Spülbehälter heraus gefahren werden kann. Bei einem im unteren Teil des Spülbehälters angeordneten Aufnahmekorb ist ein Teleskopauszug nicht erforderlich, da der Aufnahmekorb sich auf der Tür bzw. an einer deren Innenseite bildenden Türinnenwand abstützen kann. Der Aufnahmekorb ist in diesem Fall in der Regel mit unterseitigen Rollen oder Gleitelementen versehen, die mit sich in Bewegungsrichtung des Aufnahmekorbs erstreckenden Laufflächen an der (in der Endschließstellung der Tür dem Innenraum des Spülbehälters zugewandten) Türinnenwand zusammenwirken. Auch innerhalb des Spülbehälters sind Laufflächen vorhanden, die beispielsweise an dem Boden des Spülbehälters vorhanden sind. Eine Lichtquellenreihe oder ein Leuchtband ist dann vorzugsweise direkt an der Lauffläche positioniert. Dabei sind die Lichtquellen vorzugsweise versenkt, etwa in Ausnehmungen, so angeordnet, dass sich die Rollen oder Gleitelemente weitgehend behinderungsfrei längs der Lauffläche bewegen können.Preferably, a series of light sources or a light strip in the immediate vicinity of a receiving basket in the direction of entry and extension leading guideway, so as possible adjacent to this arranged so that it is the insertion level of the respective receiving basket or the guideways during the extension and retraction of the Highlight basket. In a laterally mounted on the side walls of the Spülbehälters receiving basket, the guideways are usually formed by telescopic extensions, so that the receiving basket can be sufficiently far out of the washing out. In a arranged in the lower part of the washing container receiving a telescopic extension is not required because the receiving basket can be supported on the door or on an inner side forming the inner door wall. The receiving basket is provided in this case usually with underside rollers or sliding elements, which cooperate with in the direction of movement of the receiving basket extending running surfaces on the (in the Endschließstellung the door facing the interior of the washing) door inner wall. Also within the washing tub running surfaces are present, which are present for example at the bottom of the washing. A row of light sources or a light band is then preferably positioned directly on the tread. The light sources are preferably recessed, for example, in recesses, arranged so that the rollers or sliding elements can move largely disability-free along the tread.
Das Ende einer Verfahrbewegung des Aufnahmekorbs lässt dann besonders leicht erkennen, wenn das Leuchtband eine der Verschiebestrecke des Aufnahmekorbs entsprechende Länge aufweist. Es wird dann nämlich die von dem Aufnahmekorb zurückgelegte Strecke nahezu 1:1 von dem Leuchtband abgebildet. Eine weitere vorteilhafte Maßnahme, den Fortgang der Aus- und Einfahrbewegung des Aufnahmekorbs anhand des Leuchtbands zu erkennen, besteht darin, dass die Steuereinrichtung so ausgestaltet ist, dass sie die in einer Reihe angeordneten, mehreren Lichtquellen so ansteuert, dass sich die Veränderung eines Parameters der Lichtquellen in Bewegungsrichtung des Aufnahmekorbs fortpflanzt. Dabei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Ansteuerung der mehreren Lichtquellen derart erfolgt, dass sich der Parameter mit einer der Verfahrgeschwindigkeit des Aufnahmekorbs entsprechenden Geschwindigkeit fortpflanzt.The end of a movement of the receiving basket can then be particularly easily seen when the light strip has a length corresponding to the displacement distance of the receiving basket. In fact, the distance covered by the receiving basket is then imaged almost 1: 1 by the illuminated strip. A further advantageous measure to detect the progress of the extension and retraction movement of the receiving basket based on the light strip, is that the control device is designed so that it controls the arranged in a row, a plurality of light sources so that the change of a parameter of Transmitted light sources in the direction of movement of the receiving basket. It is advantageous if the control of the multiple light sources takes place such that the parameter with a the speed of movement of the receiving basket corresponding speed propagates.
Für die Anbringung von Lichtquellen in und/an der Geschirrspülmaschine bieten sich mehrere Möglichkeiten an. So kann eine Lichtquelle auf der dem Behandlungsraum zugewandten Innenseite einer Seitenwand und/oder Bodenwand des Spülbehälters und/oder auf der in der Schließendstellung der Tür dem Behandlungsraum des Spülbehälters zugewandten Innenseite der Türinnenwand abstehend aufgebracht sein. Alternativ zu einer solchen Montage, bei der die Lichtquelle erhaben aus der jeweiligen Wand vorsteht, kann auch in den genannten Wänden ein die Lichtquelle aufnehmender Durchbruch oder eine Ausnehmung vorhanden sein. Eine bevorzugte Variante sieht jedoch für den Fall einer Anordnung einer oder mehrerer Lichtquellen an der Tür vor, dass zumindest ein Teilbereich der Türinnenwand, vorzugsweise die gesamte Türinnenwand, lichtdurchlässig ausgebildet ist, also aus einem oder mehreren lichtdurchlässigen Materialien besteht. Eine oder mehrere Lichtquellen sind dann in einer oder mehreren von dem lichtdurchlässigen Teilbereich oder von der insgesamt lichtdurchlässigen Türinnenwand überdeckten Ausnehmungen oder Durchbrüchen der Tür angeordnet. Ein oder mehrere Lichtquellen können also zweckmäßigerweise in ein oder mehreren Aussparungen oder Durchbrüchen hinter einem lichtdurchlässigen Abdeckelement wie z.B. aus einem Glas- und/oder Kunststoffmaterial angeordnet sein, das einen Teilflächenbereich der ansonsten aus einem opaken Material wie z.B. Metall, insbesondere Edelstahl bestehenden Türinnenwand bildet. Insbesondere bei einer vollständig lichtdurchlässig ausgestalteten Türinnenwand können Lichtquellen im Inneren der Tür unterhalb deren Türinnenwand, die in der Schließendstellung der Tür dem Behandlungsraum des Spülbehälters zugewandt ist, angeordnet sein, ohne dass dabei Spalte zwischen Lichtquelle und Türinnenwand entstehen, welche die Gefahr in sich bergen, dass während des Betriebs der Spülmaschine Spülflüssigkeit in die Tür eintritt. Bei einer lichtdurchlässigen Türinnenwand oder einem Teilbereich davon wären neben den sich in der genannten Ausnehmung befindlichen Lichtquellen auch Konstruktionsteile der Tür sichtbar. Um eine Sicht auf die Konstruktionsteile zu verhindern, ist bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsvariante zweckmäßigerweise vorgesehen, dass der Teilbereich bzw. die Türinnenwand (Innentür) außen- oder innenseitig mit einer Beschichtung versehen sind, die eine geringere Lichtdurchlässigkeit aufweist als das den Teilbereich bzw. die Türinnenwand bildende Material. Ein sich über der oder den Lichtquellen befindlicher Bereich bleibt dagegen unbeschichtet, so dass ein Fenster entsteht, durch welches das Licht der Lichtquellen nach außen treten kann.For the attachment of light sources in and / or on the dishwasher, there are several possibilities. Thus, a light source on the inside of the treatment chamber facing a side wall and / or bottom wall of the washing and / or on the in the final closing position of the door to the treatment room of the washing container facing inside of the inner door wall be applied spreading. As an alternative to such a mounting, in which the light source protrudes from the respective wall in a raised manner, a breakthrough or a recess receiving the light source can also be present in said walls. However, a preferred variant provides for the case of an arrangement of one or more light sources on the door, that at least a portion of the door inner wall, preferably the entire door inner wall, is translucent, that is, consists of one or more light-transmitting materials. One or more light sources are then arranged in one or more of the light-transmissive portion or of the total translucent door inner wall covered recesses or openings of the door. One or more light sources can thus be expediently arranged in one or more recesses or openings behind a light-permeable cover element, such as a glass and / or plastic material, which forms a partial surface area of the otherwise made of an opaque material such as metal, especially stainless steel door inner wall. In particular, in a completely translucent designed door inner wall light sources inside the door below the inner door wall, which faces the treatment room of the washing container in the final closing position of the door, be arranged without causing gaps between the light source and the inner door wall, which hold the danger in itself that during operation of the dishwasher rinse enters the door. In the case of a translucent door inner wall or a partial area thereof, structural parts of the door would be visible in addition to the light sources located in said recess. In order to prevent a view of the construction parts, in a preferred embodiment it is expediently provided that the subarea or door inner wall (inner door) is provided on the outside or inside with a coating which has a lower light transmittance than that of the subarea or door inner wall forming material. An over the or the light sources The area located on the other hand remains uncoated, so that a window is formed through which the light from the light sources can pass outwards.
Wenn im Rahmen der Erläuterungen zur Erfindung sowie zu deren vorteilhaften Ausführungsvarianten der Begriff "aus- und einfahrbar" hinsichtlich des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs verwendet wird, so umfasst dieser eine Vielzahl von Möglichkeiten zum Hineinbewegen und Herausbewegen des jeweiligen Aufnahmekorbs in und aus dem Innenraum, d.h. Behandlungsraum des Spülbehälters.When the term "extendable and retractable" with respect to the respective receiving basket is used in the context of the explanation of the invention and to its advantageous embodiments, this includes a variety of ways for moving in and out of the respective basket in and out of the interior, i. Treatment room of the washing container.
