- the control panels related to the household appliances are projected to a surface, and the household appliances can be controlled therefrom.
- the household appliance control unit of the present invention comprises a transparent plate disposed in front of the projector.
- the transparent plate is in a detachable form. By means of the plate, materials such as vapor, oil, and dirt that rise during the cooking process realized on the cooker are prevented from reaching the projector. When dirty, the transparent plate can be cleaned by the user by being easily removed.
- the transparent plate is produced from glass.
- a more hygienic structure is provided, and the image that comes out from the projector is enabled to reach the desired surface without being refracted.
- the household appliance control unit comprises a board, and a pin and a bracket that enable the plate to be attached to the board. By means of the pin and the bracket, the plate is tightly seated on the board.
- the household appliance control unit comprises a pin housing and a bracket housing that enable respectively the pin and the bracket to be attached on the board.
- the pin is tightly seated in the pin housing, and the bracket is tightly seated in the bracket housing.
- the pin and the bracket are fixed on the plate by means of silicone.
- Operations such as the puncturing or the screwing of the glass damage the glass.
- the damaging of the glass also causes the damaging of the projector. Therefore, the pin and the bracket are adhered on the glass by means of silicone.
- a gasket is used between the plate and the board in order to prevent the materials such as oil, dirt, and vapor from reaching the projector.
- the projector is enabled to be insulated from any kind of external factors.
- the gasket can be cleaned by the user by easily being detached in case the gasket gets dirty.
- the projector is placed in the casing after being placed in a cassette.
- components such as sensors, Wi-Fi receiver etc. that enable the system to operate are also placed in the cassette.
- the service provider deals only with the cassette.
- the cassette is formed by the assembly of an upper cover, a front and rear cover, and a lower cover.
- the cassette comprises the lower cover that has slots so as to enable the projector and the sensors thereon to operate. By means of the slots, the signals are enabled to reach the respective units without any problem.
- an opening is arranged on the board. By means of the said opening, it is possible to access the cassette without opening the casing.
- the opening is closed by the plate being attached in front of the opening.
- the lower cover is placed so as to remain above the opening.
- a household appliance control unit realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention is illustrated in the attached figures, where:
- Figure 1 - is the schematic view of the household appliance control unit.
- Figure 2 - is the partial view of the household appliance control unit and the projector.
- Figure 3 - is the perspective view of the household appliance control unit and the plate.
- Figure 4 - is the schematic view of the board.
- Figure 5 - is the exploded view of the cassette and the board.
- the household appliance control unit (1) comprises a casing (2) and a projector (3) that is disposed in the casing (2), that reflects the images that are preloaded by the producer to a surface that enables the user to enter information through the transmitted image and that is suitable for one or more household appliance to be enabled to be controlled in accordance with the information entered.
- the household appliances can be controlled from a single point.
- the projector (3) is turned off. By preventing the multitude of buttons, an esthetic appearance is provided. At the same time, saving from the costs of the control panel is provided.
- the household appliance control unit (1) of the present invention comprises a transparent plate (4) that is disposed between the surface that the image is transmitted and the projector (3) and that is in detachable form.
- a transparent plate (4) that is disposed between the surface that the image is transmitted and the projector (3) and that is in detachable form.
- the household appliance control unit (1) comprises the plate (4) produced from glass.
- the plate (4) is produced from a glass that is heat-resistant and that has good optic features.
- the household appliance control unit (1) comprises a board (5) that is disposed on the casing (2), and at least one pin (6) and at least one bracket (7) that are disposed on the plate (4) and that enable the plate (4) to be attached on the board (5).
- the pin (6) and the bracket (7) By means of the pin (6) and the bracket (7), the plate (4) is tightly seated on the board (5) and the projector (3) surface is fully closed.
- the household appliance control unit (1) comprises a pin housing (8) wherein the pin (6) is seated, and that is disposed on the board (5); and a bracket housing (9) wherein the bracket (7) is seated and that is disposed on the board (5).
- the pin (6) and the bracket (7) are fixed respectively in the pin housing (8) and the bracket housing (8).
- the household appliance control unit (1) comprises the pin (6) and the bracket (7) that are fixed on the plate (4) by means of silicone.
- the pin (6) and the bracket (7) are enabled to be fixed on the plate (4) without the plate (5) being punctured or screwed. Since the plate (4) has no holes, a vapor-proof structure is obtained.
- the projector (3) is enabled to be fully protected from materials such as vapor, dirt oil etc. by means of the plate (4).
- the household appliance control unit (1) comprises a gasket (10) that is disposed between the plate (4) and the board (5) and that prevents materials such as dust, dirt, oil, humidity etc. from reaching the projector (3).
- a gasket (10) that is disposed between the plate (4) and the board (5) and that prevents materials such as dust, dirt, oil, humidity etc. from reaching the projector (3).
