Definitions
- the invention relates to a dishwasher, in particular a domestic dishwasher, with a washing compartment providing a washing area, which has a loading opening that can be closed by means of a washing area door, in particular fluid-tight, for loading items to be cleaned, and with a camera unit for visual detection of the washing area.
- Dishwashers of the generic type are well known per se from the prior art, for example from US Pat DE 100 48 081 A1 and the EP 3 205 764 A1 .
- a dishwasher of the typical type has a washing container which provides a washing area. This is accessible on the user side via a loading opening which can be closed in a fluid-tight manner by means of a pivotably mounted wash cabinet door.
- the washing container is used to hold items to be cleaned, which can be, for example, dishes, cutlery and / or the like.
- a wash ware carrier is generally used, which can be moved through the loading opening, either into or out of the wash space, depending on the direction of movement.
- a dishwasher typically has two or three wash ware carriers, depending on the design.
- the items to be washed are designed as washing baskets, with a lower basket, an upper basket arranged above the upper basket in the height direction of the dishwasher and, optionally, a cutlery drawer arranged above the upper basket in the height direction, according to a typical design.
- a generic dishwasher which has two cleaning cameras arranged in the washing area. These cameras are used to detect soiling of items to be cleaned that are arranged in wash baskets.
- a camera for load detection is also known from the prior art.
- the WO 2017/032629 A1 a generic dishwasher which has a camera unit arranged in the washing compartment. This camera unit is used to detect the loading of the wash baskets with items to be cleaned.
- a camera unit - whether for contamination detection or for load detection - is fundamentally problematic insofar as it enables visual detection of a user operating the dishwasher and / or at least in some areas of the atmosphere surrounding the dishwasher when the wash cabinet door is open. Users are often not aware of this or it causes the user to experience a surprise effect that is mostly perceived as negative. A remedy is to be found here, which is why it is the object of the invention to further develop a dishwasher of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the above-described surprise effect is structurally excluded and trust is created with the user.
- the invention proposes a generic dishwasher which is characterized by an information carrier that can be viewed by the user when the wash cabinet door is open, which is set up and intended to indicate the presence of the camera unit and / or a status display that can be viewed by the user when the wash cabinet door is open, which is set up and intended to display a current operating state of the camera unit.
- the invention proposes an information carrier which informs a user about the presence of a camera unit, ie indicates the camera unit.
- the information carrier can be viewed by the user when the wash cabinet door is open, so that when the wash cabinet door is opened, the user is immediately informed that the dishwasher is equipped with a camera unit.
- This advantageously ensures that a user is not surprised by the presence of a camera unit. This creates trust in the user and also enables him to behave accordingly, for example to be able to consciously switch off the function of the camera unit. In any case, it is effectively avoided that the camera unit goes unnoticed by the user and possibly even unwanted images from User and / or the ambient atmosphere created.
- a status display that can be viewed by the user when the wash cabinet door is open is provided, which is set up and intended to display a current operating state of the camera unit.
- This status display not only serves to inform a user about the presence of a camera unit, it also indicates the current operating state of the camera unit, for example whether it is activated or deactivated.
- both an information carrier and a status display are provided. According to this preferred solution, there is an even clearer indication to the user that the dishwasher is equipped with a camera unit. In addition, according to this variant of the invention, the user receives the additional information about the operating state of the camera unit. A user therefore not only knows about the presence of the camera unit, but also whether it is activated or deactivated, for example.
- the configuration according to the invention ensures that the presence of the camera unit can be recognized quickly and immediately whenever the door is open. This is enlightening for a user and creates trust. In particular, if a user is not satisfied, it is possible to switch off the camera unit. In any case, unwanted surprise effects due to the presence of a camera unit are avoided.

A dishwasher typically has two or three wash ware carriers, depending on the design. As a rule, the items to be washed are designed as washing baskets, with a lower basket, an upper basket arranged above the upper basket in the height direction of the dishwasher and, optionally, a cutlery drawer arranged above the upper basket in the height direction, according to a typical design.
Aus der schon eingangs genannten
Aus dem Stand der Technik ist ferner die Verwendung einer Kamera zur Beladungserkennung bekannt. So offenbart beispielsweise die
Die Verwendung einer Kameraeinheit - ob nun zur Anschmutzungserkennung oder zur Beladungserkennung - ist insofern grundsätzlich problematisch, als dass sie bei geöffneter Spülraumtür eine visuelle Erfassung auch eines die Geschirrspülmaschine bedienenden Verwenders und/oder zumindest bereichsweise der die Geschirrspülmaschine umgebenden Atmosphäre ermöglicht. Dies ist Verwendern häufig nicht bewusst oder sorgt verwenderseitig für einen zumeist als negativ empfundenen Überraschungseffekt. Hier gilt es Abhilfe zu schaffen, weshalb es die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist, eine Geschirrspülmaschine der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend weiterzuentwickeln, dass der vorbeschriebene Überraschungseffekt konstruktiv ausgeschlossen und Vertrauen beim Verwender geschaffen ist.The use of a camera unit - whether for contamination detection or for load detection - is fundamentally problematic insofar as it enables visual detection of a user operating the dishwasher and / or at least in some areas of the atmosphere surrounding the dishwasher when the wash cabinet door is open. Users are often not aware of this or it causes the user to experience a surprise effect that is mostly perceived as negative. A remedy is to be found here, which is why it is the object of the invention to further develop a dishwasher of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the above-described surprise effect is structurally excluded and trust is created with the user.

Gemäß einer ersten Alternative wird mit der Erfindung ein Informationsträger vorgeschlagen, der einen Verwender über das Vorhandensein einer Kameraeinheit informiert, d.h. auf die Kameraeinheit hinweist. Verwenderseitig ist der Informationsträger bei geöffneter Spülraumtür einsehbar, womit der Verwender bei einem Öffnen der Spülraumtür unmittelbar darüber informiert ist, dass die Geschirrspülmaschine mit einer Kameraeinheit ausgerüstet ist. Damit ist in vorteilhafter Weise sichergestellt, dass ein Verwender von dem Vorhandensein einer Kameraeinheit nicht überrascht wird. Dies schafft beim Verwender Vertrauen und versetzt ihn zudem in die Lage, sich entsprechend verhalten zu können, beispielsweise die Funktion der Kameraeinheit bewusst auszuschalten zu können. In jedem Fall ist wirkungsvoll vermieden, dass die Kameraeinheit vom Verwender unbemerkt bleibt und ggf. sogar ungewollte Bilder vom Verwender und/oder der Umgebungsatmosphäre erstellt.According to a first alternative, the invention proposes an information carrier which informs a user about the presence of a camera unit, ie indicates the camera unit. The information carrier can be viewed by the user when the wash cabinet door is open, so that when the wash cabinet door is opened, the user is immediately informed that the dishwasher is equipped with a camera unit. This advantageously ensures that a user is not surprised by the presence of a camera unit. This creates trust in the user and also enables him to behave accordingly, for example to be able to consciously switch off the function of the camera unit. In any case, it is effectively avoided that the camera unit goes unnoticed by the user and possibly even unwanted images from User and / or the ambient atmosphere created.
Gemäß einer Alternative der Erfindung ist eine vom Verwender bei geöffneter Spülraumtür einsehbare Statusanzeige vorgesehen, die dazu eingerichtet und bestimmt ist, einen momentanen Betriebszustand der Kameraeinheit anzuzeigen. Diese Statusanzeige dient nicht nur dazu, einen Verwender über das Vorhandensein einer Kameraeinheit zu informieren, sie weist den Verwender auch auf den momentanen Betriebszustand der Kameraeinheit hin, beispielsweise ob diese aktiviert oder deaktiviert ist.According to an alternative of the invention, a status display that can be viewed by the user when the wash cabinet door is open is provided, which is set up and intended to display a current operating state of the camera unit. This status display not only serves to inform a user about the presence of a camera unit, it also indicates the current operating state of the camera unit, for example whether it is activated or deactivated.

Gemäß dieser bevorzugten Lösung erfolgt ein noch deutlicherer Hinweis an den Verwender, dass die Geschirrspülmaschine mit einer Kameraeinheit ausgerüstet ist. Darüber hinaus erhält der Verwender gemäß dieser Erfindungsvariante die zusätzliche Angabe über den Betriebszustand der Kameraeinheit. Ein Verwender weiß mithin nicht nur über das Vorhandensein der Kameraeinheit Bescheid, sondern auch, ob diese beispielsweise aktiviert oder deaktiviert ist.According to a third alternative of the invention, both an information carrier and a status display are provided. According to this preferred solution, there is an even clearer indication to the user that the dishwasher is equipped with a camera unit. In addition, according to this variant of the invention, the user receives the additional information about the operating state of the camera unit. A user therefore not only knows about the presence of the camera unit, but also whether it is activated or deactivated, for example.
Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung ist insgesamt sichergestellt, dass ein Vorhandensein der Kameraeinheit bei jeder Türoffenstellung schnell und unmittelbar erkannt werden kann. Dies ist für einen Verwender aufklärend und schafft Vertrauen. Insbesondere ist es einem Verwender bei Nichtgefallen ermöglicht, die Kameraeinheit abschalten zu können. Ungewollte Überraschungseffekte über das Vorhandensein einer Kameraeinheit sind jedenfalls vermieden.Overall, the configuration according to the invention ensures that the presence of the camera unit can be recognized quickly and immediately whenever the door is open. This is enlightening for a user and creates trust. In particular, if a user is not satisfied, it is possible to switch off the camera unit. In any case, unwanted surprise effects due to the presence of a camera unit are avoided.
Bei der Verwendung einer Statusanzeige kommt ferner der Vorteil hinzu, dass nicht nur über das Vorhandensein einer Kameraeinheit informiert wird, sondern dass dem Verwender darüber hinaus auch noch der Betriebszustand der Kameraeinheit angezeigt wird. So kann sich der Verwender insbesondere darüber informieren, ob die Kameraeinheit ausgeschaltet ist oder nicht.When using a status display, there is also the advantage that information is not only provided about the presence of a camera unit, but that the operating status of the camera unit is also displayed to the user. In this way, the user can find out in particular whether the camera unit is switched off or not.
Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der Informationsträger ein Piktogramm einer Kamera aufweist.

Insbesondere ist die Verwendung eines Piktogramms sprachenunabhängig.According to a further feature of the invention it is provided that the information carrier has a pictogram of a camera. Accordingly, the information carrier has a pictorial representation of a camera, which allows a quick and unmistakable communication of information to a user. In particular, the use of a pictogram is language-independent.
Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der Informationsträger eine in ein Türinnenblech der Spülraumtür eingebrachte Prägung ist. Die Ausbildung einer solchen Prägung kann bei der Herstellung des Türinnenbleches mit vorgenommen werden. Dies gestattet eine kostengünstige Herstellung. Darüber hinaus ist eine Prägung dem Grunde nach zerstörungsfrei, womit Langlebigkeit sichergestellt ist.According to a further feature of the invention, it is provided that the information carrier is an embossing made in an inner door panel of the wash cabinet door. The formation of such an embossing can be carried out with the production of the door inner panel. This allows inexpensive manufacture. In addition, an embossing is essentially non-destructive, which ensures a long service life.
Gemäß einer alternativen Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Informationsträger ein Aufkleber ist. Ein Aufkleber bringt den Vorteil mit sich, auch eine farbige Ausgestaltung aufweisen zu können. Die Informationsvermittlung an den Verwender kann hierdurch unterstützt und besser vom Verwender wahrnehmbar ausgestaltet sein. Des Weiteren kann der Informationsträger als spülbeständige Lackierung ausgebildet sein.According to an alternative embodiment it is provided that the information carrier is a sticker. A sticker has the advantage of being able to have a colored design. The transfer of information to the user can thereby be supported and made easier for the user to perceive. Furthermore, the information carrier can be designed as a wash-resistant coating.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der Informationsträger von einer die Kameraeinheit spülraumseitig abdeckenden Scheibe aus einem transparenten Material bereitgestellt ist.According to a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the information carrier is provided by a pane made of a transparent material that covers the camera unit on the wash space side.
Die Kameraeinheit ist spülraumseitig vorzugsweise mittels einer Scheibe aus einem transparenten Material abgedeckt. Sie dient einerseits dem Schutz der Kameraeinheit und gewährleistet andererseits eine klare Sicht der Kameraeinheit in den Spülraum hinein. Diese die Kameraeinheit abdeckende Scheibe trägt gemäß dieser Ausführungsform den Informationsträger. Der Informationsträger ist mithin in die die Kameraeinheit abdeckende Scheibe integriert. Auch diese Ausführungsform ist besonders preisgünstig in der Herstellung und erfordert keine zusätzliche Montage und/oder Herstellungsschritte.The camera unit is preferably covered on the wash space side by means of a pane made of a transparent material. On the one hand, it serves to protect the camera unit and, on the other hand, ensures a clear view of the camera unit into the wash cabinet. According to this embodiment, this disk covering the camera unit carries the information carrier. The information carrier is therefore integrated into the pane that covers the camera unit. This embodiment is also particularly inexpensive to manufacture and does not require any additional assembly and / or manufacturing steps.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der in die die Kameraeinheit abdeckende Scheibe eingebettete Informationsträger lichtleitend ausgebildet ist. Dies schafft die Möglichkeit, den Informationsträger bei Bedarf aufleuchten zu lassen. Dies verbessert die verwenderseitige Wahrnehmbarkeit. Darüber hinaus ist es möglich, eine Ausleuchtung farblich unterschiedlich auszugestalten. In diesem Fall dient der Informationsträger zugleich auch als Statusanzeige, da es die unterschiedliche Farbgebung ermöglicht, Betriebszustände der Kameraeinheit anzuzeigen.According to a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that the information carrier embedded in the pane covering the camera unit is designed to be light-conducting. This creates the possibility to light up the information carrier if necessary. This improves the perceptibility on the part of the user. In addition, it is possible to design an illumination in different colors. In this case, the information carrier also serves as a status display, since the different colors make it possible to display the operating states of the camera unit.
Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die die Kameraeinheit abdeckende Scheibe in den Informationsträger einstückig übergeht. Gemäß dieser Ausführungsform ist der Informationsträger nicht in die die Kameraeinheit abdeckende Scheibe integriert. Der Informationsträger ist der Scheibe vielmehr nebengeordnet, wobei es bevorzugt ist, Scheibe und Informationsträger einstückig auszubilden. Alternativ kann auch eine zweistückige Ausgestaltung gewählt sein, was es gestattet, den Informationsträger aus einem anderen Material als dem Scheibenmaterial auszubilden. Auch gemäß dieser Variante kann der Informationsträger lichtleitend ausgebildet sein, was es gestattet, den Informationsträger ausleuchten zu können. Im Falle eines Piktogramms ermöglicht dieser Ausführungsform, ein aufleuchtendes Kamerasymbol einzusetzen.According to a further feature of the invention it is provided that the pane covering the camera unit merges in one piece with the information carrier. According to this embodiment, the information carrier is not in the one covering the camera unit Integrated disc. Rather, the information carrier is arranged alongside the disk, it being preferred to form the disk and information carrier in one piece. Alternatively, a two-piece configuration can also be selected, which makes it possible to form the information carrier from a material other than the disk material. According to this variant, too, the information carrier can be designed to be light-conducting, which makes it possible to illuminate the information carrier. In the case of a pictogram, this embodiment makes it possible to use an illuminated camera symbol.
Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung weist die Statusanzeige ein Leuchtmittel auf. Dieses Leuchtmittel dient dazu, dem Verwender den Betriebszustand der Kameraeinheit anzuzeigen. Im einfachsten Fall leuchtet das Leuchtmittel dann auf, wenn die Kamera eingeschaltet ist. Bei nicht eingeschalteter Kameraeinheit leuchtet auch das Leuchtmittel nicht auf. Bevorzugterweise findet die Statusanzeige in Kombination mit einem Informationsträger Verwendung, so dass der Verwender auch bei ausgeschaltetem Leuchtmittel über das Vorhandensein der Kameraeinheit informiert ist.According to a further feature of the invention, the status display has a light source. This light source is used to display the operating status of the camera unit to the user. In the simplest case, the lamp lights up when the camera is switched on. If the camera unit is not switched on, the lamp does not light up either. The status display is preferably used in combination with an information carrier, so that the user is informed of the presence of the camera unit even when the lamp is switched off.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist ein Impulsgeber für das Leuchtmittel vorgesehen. Dies gestattet es, das Leuchtmittel aufblinken zu lassen. Es können dabei unterschiedliche Aufleuchttaktungen vorgesehen sein, beispielsweise ein schnelles Blinken im Unterschied zu einem verlangsamten Blinken. Es ist so gestattet, dem Verwender unterschiedliche Betriebszustände der Kameraeinheit darzustellen.According to a further embodiment of the invention, a pulse generator is provided for the lighting means. This allows the lamp to flash. Different flashing cycles can be provided, for example rapid flashing as opposed to slower flashing. It is thus permitted to show the user different operating states of the camera unit.
Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Statusanzeige ein weiteres Leuchtmittel aufweist. Dies schafft die Möglichkeit, unterschiedliche Betriebszustände der Kameraeinheit anzeigen zu können bzw. eines der Leuchtmittel als Informationsträger zu verwenden. So kann beispielsweise ein in einer ersten Farbe dauerhaft aufleuchtendes Leuchtmittel vorgesehen sein, das sich beim Öffnen der Spülraumtür automatisch einschaltet. Dieses Leuchtmittel dient einem Verwender dazu, das Vorhandensein der Kameraeinheit anzuzeigen. Sofern die Kameraeinheit in Betrieb sein sollte, leuchtet das zweite Leuchtmittel auf. Dabei kann ein Daueraufleuchten oder ein Blinkleuchten vorgesehen sein. In jedem Fall signalisiert das Aufleuchten des zweiten Leuchtmittels, dass die Kameraeinheit nicht nur vorhanden, sondern auch aktiviert ist.According to a further feature of the invention it is provided that the status display has a further illuminant. This creates the possibility of being able to display different operating states of the camera unit or of using one of the lighting means as an information carrier. For example, a lighting means that lights up permanently in a first color can be provided, which switches on automatically when the wash cabinet door is opened. This illuminant is used by a user to indicate the presence of the camera unit. If the camera unit is in operation, the second lamp lights up. Continuous lighting or flashing lights can be provided. In any case, the lighting up of the second light source signals that the camera unit is not only present but also activated.
