Definitions
- the invention relates to a household appliance, having a treatment room that can be closed by means of a pivotable door, at least one camera arranged in the door for recording images from the treatment room when the door is open, and a door movement sensor for detecting values of at least one parameter of a door movement, the household appliance being set up for this purpose is to trigger at least one device function by detecting at least one trigger value.
- the invention can be applied particularly advantageously to cooling devices, in particular refrigerators.
- door movement is detected by Hall sensors and magnets, one component of which is located on the door and the other component is located on a fixed part of the home appliance (hereinafter also referred to as “body”).
- body a fixed part of the home appliance
- reaching or overrunning a fixed predetermined door opening angle also referred to as “trigger angle”
- a new trigger angle can only be determined by manually readjusting the position of the components on the device.
- the practically non-existent possibility for easy readjustment of the position of the Hall sensor and/or magnet is particularly disadvantageous when changes in the position of the door on the household appliance occur due to use, e.g. a door lowering.
- Deviations from the target trigger angle are disadvantageous, for example, in the event that a camera is installed in a door of a refrigerator, which, when the door is open, namely when the trigger angle is reached during an opening movement, begins to record images of a refrigerator compartment that can be closed by the door. If the trigger angle is misaligned, the camera triggers at the wrong time, which reduces the ability to evaluate the images recorded with it.
- U.S. 2014/0293060 A1 reveals a refrigerator.
- the refrigerator has a main body or body with a storage compartment, a first door rotatably installed on a first side of the main body to open and close a first portion of the storage space, and a second door rotatably installed on a second side of the Main body is installed to open and close-up a second section of the storage compartment.
- a first camera may be installed on the first door to capture an image of an interior of the storage compartment during rotation of the first door
- a second camera may be installed on the second door to capture an image of an interior of the storage compartment during rotation of the second door .
- a controller may combine multiple images captured by the first camera and the second camera into a single corrected image of an area of the storage compartment that extends from the first door to the second door.
- US 2014/0313331 A1 discloses a refrigerator and method of operation therefor.
- the operating method of the refrigerator which may include a drawer and a camera, may include detecting the beginning of a drawer closing operation, capturing an internal image of the drawer using the camera at a time when the drawer closing operation is initiated, and a external viewing and/or transmission of the final image.
- U.S. 2016/0182764 A1 discloses a camera system having a camera device serving as an image capture unit; a communication unit configured to transmit image information captured by the camera device to an external device; and a display configured to display image information captured by the camera device, the display configured to display at least one of image information captured by the camera device according to prescribed conditions and image information captured according to user instructions were recorded.
- U.S. 2016/0182768 A1 discloses a camera device for use in a storage facility.
- the camera device is provided with a housing configured to be installed in a storage facility; an image pickup element provided inside the case; and an image pickup window provided on a first surface portion of the case and configured for capturing an image within the storage device by the image pickup element.
- the image capturing element is configured to capture an image in the storage device in which the case is installed.
- WO 2018/142136 A1 discloses an imaging device on a movable structure, the imaging unit comprising a motion sensor and a position sensor, wherein the imaging unit can be placed in a low power mode by the motion sensor.
- WO 2019/025443 A1 discloses a household refrigeration appliance with a pivoting door to which a sensor device can be attached.
- the sensor device comprises an inertial sensor for providing a movement signal; and a processing device which is set up to determine a pivoting angle of the pivoting door on the basis of the movement signal and to output a signal when the pivoting angle has reached a predetermined threshold value.
- U.S. 2016/138860 A1 discloses a refrigerator including a storage compartment, a drawer movably provided in the storage compartment and provided with a mark, a camera photographing inside the drawer from outside the drawer, and a controller controlling a position of the mark in by the camera captured photographs at time intervals, and determines the state information about the drawer based on a change in position of the marker.
- DE 10 2013 216759 A1 discloses a refrigeration device with a camera module for accommodating items to be cooled inside the refrigeration device, which includes a camera housing module for hermetically encapsulating the camera module relative to the interior of the refrigeration device.
- the at least one door movement parameter is a door opening angle, a door movement direction (e.g. a door opening or door closing) and/or a door speed (eg an angular speed when the door is pivoted).
- This household appliance has the advantage that the at least one door movement parameter can be determined continuously or quasi-continuously over the entire door movement and not only a single trigger angle is detected, as is the case with Hall sensors, for example. This in turn results in the possibility that device functions can be controlled as a function of several trigger values, e.g. as a function of different door opening angles that have been reached.
- the at least one trigger value can be adjusted as desired without having to make mechanical changes to the device.
- This can be used to advantage, for example, to compensate for signs of use and/or assembly tolerances.
- This also makes it easy to use different cameras that require different trigger values for triggering, e.g. due to different fields of view, in series or when replaced by customer service by adjusting the trigger value, etc.
- the advantage of reduced assembly effort in production is achieved.
- a number of lines in the device and in particular to the device door can be significantly reduced.
- the possibility of a system failure due to incorrect assembly or damaged electrical wiring is also reduced.
- a particularly compact structure is made possible.
- An inertial sensor can be understood to mean a sensor that is set up to independently measure translational and/or rotational accelerations. Provision is made for the camera/sensor module to have one or more inertial sensors, in particular of different types and/or orientations. For example, a yaw rate sensor, an acceleration sensor or a combination thereof can be installed in the camera/sensor module. With an inertial sensor, a measured value resolution of +/- 1° can be achieved with a maximum opening speed of 90°/s or even better.
- At least one inertial sensor is a yaw rate sensor. This is particularly suitable for determining a current opening angle of the door with high accuracy and little effort.
- the angular velocity of the door can also be measured by means of the yaw rate sensor and the door opening angle can be determined therefrom—for example by integrating the measured angular velocity over time.
- a door opening angle of zero (corresponding to a closed door) can be determined by switching a door switch.
- the yaw rate sensor is a vibrating structure gyroscope (VSG). This is particularly robust, small and inexpensive.
- At least one inertial sensor is an acceleration sensor.
- the acceleration sensor is intended in particular for measuring linear accelerations.
- a door opening angle can also be determined with an acceleration sensor, in particular when the door is only slightly open.
- an acceleration sensor for a single acceleration sensor, a determination accuracy drops noticeably with larger door opening angles. This can be compensated for by using several differently aligned acceleration sensors.
- an acceleration sensor is to determine a drift of a yaw rate sensor. Taking into account the drift determined in this way, a door movement parameter determined by the yaw rate sensor, in particular a door opening angle, can be corrected and thus determined even more precisely.
- at least one yaw rate sensor and at least one (linear) acceleration sensor is advantageous for at least one yaw rate sensor and at least one (linear) acceleration sensor to be installed in at least one camera/sensor module.
- At least one inertial sensor is a MEMS sensor.
- a MEMS (“micro-electro-mechanical system”) sensor has the advantage that it can be implemented directly in integrated circuits
- At least one inertial sensor can be a piezoelectric sensor.
- This can have quartz rods, for example, which are slightly bent during acceleration and slightly detune an electrical oscillating circuit.
- a further development that is advantageous for reducing the computing effort is that one or more axes of at least one inertial sensor are excluded from the evaluation. For example, if an inertial sensor measures an acceleration in all three Cartesian spatial axes, only the spatial axes that are perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the door need to be evaluated, since the door performs no or no practically usable movement along its axis of rotation.
- the camera can be designed as a module (“camera module”), which can have, for example, a semiconductor-based image recording sensor (e.g. a CCD chip), camera electronics for operating the image recording sensor, optics upstream of the image recording sensor, etc.
- the camera can be a black and white camera or, advantageously, a color camera.
- the camera/sensor module is connected to an energy store for its operation, which can be charged wirelessly at least when the door is closed.
- the energy store can have at least one supercapacitor, for example. Electrically operated components of the camera/sensor module, such as the camera, the at least one inertial sensor, etc., can be supplied with energy by means of the energy store.
- the fact that the energy store can be charged wirelessly at least when the door is closed can mean that the energy supply is no longer effective when the door is noticeably opened. It is a development that the energy store can be charged inductively.
- a pick-up coil in which an induction voltage can be induced by means of an inductive alternating field in order to charge the energy store and, if necessary, to operate further components of the camera/sensor module.
- at least one primary coil configured and arranged for generating the inductive (“charging") alternating field can be present in the body of the household appliance. The primary coil faces the pickup coil for effective energy transfer when the door is closed.
- the camera/sensor module can be supplied with power by a cable. This results in the advantage that an energy store can be dispensed with. To do this, a power supply line can be routed from the body into the door, e.g. a simple two-wire line.
- the camera/sensor module can be charged wirelessly and at least one other camera located in the door can be supplied with power by a cable.
- the camera/sensor module is set up to, with the detection of at least one trigger value by the at least one inertial sensor, at least one device function (“camera function”) or action assigned to the camera of the camera/sensor module (“internal module camera”) trigger.
- camera function device function
- internal module camera action assigned to the camera of the camera/sensor module
- the at least one camera function may include waking or bringing the camera from a powered off state to an operable standby state, triggering the camera to take a picture, turning off the camera, and so on.
- the data communication device has or is a wireless or wired data interface for wireless or wired communication with at least one other component of the household appliance, e.g. with a central control device, at least one additional camera, a screen, etc.
- a wireless data interface results the advantage that no data transmission lines need to be routed into or in the door to the module.
- the data communication device of the camera/sensor module has or is a bidirectional data interface and can use it to send and receive data, e.g. now also calibration data, control commands such as waking up a camera from a switched-off state to a standby state , triggering the camera, heating a case window, etc.
- data e.g. now also calibration data
- control commands such as waking up a camera from a switched-off state to a standby state , triggering the camera, heating a case window, etc.
- the data communication facility can then also be referred to as a transceiver.
- the bidirectional data interface also saves space in comparison to the provision of a unidirectional interface for data reception and a unidirectional interface for data transmission, which is also possible in principle.
- the data communication device has a bidirectional data interface
- the camera/sensor module or one or more of its components can be controlled externally.
- the advantage achieved in this way is that the camera/sensor module can be used particularly flexibly. For example, at least one camera of the camera/sensor module can be woken up, triggered, switched off, etc. via a command received via the bidirectional data interface. If the camera/sensor module has a number of cameras, a received command can in particular trigger a specific camera for image recording, or a number of cameras, in particular all cameras, can be triggered. It is also possible to calibrate or reconfigure the evaluation device externally, e.g. to change, add, delete trigger values, etc.
- the data communication device can only be connected to the camera.
- the data communication device can be connected to the camera and the at least one inertial sensor.
- the household appliance has at least one additional camera that does not belong to the camera/sensor module ("module-external") and is set up to detect at least one trigger value by the at least one inertial sensor of the camera/sensor module to trigger the device function or camera function assigned to the module-external camera.
- module-external the camera/sensor module
- the camera/sensor module can be coupled with the at least one module-external camera in terms of data technology either directly or indirectly, for example via a control device.
- module-internal and/or module-external cameras can be triggered independently of one another based on a respective door opening angle. This results in the advantage that images can be recorded from a particularly advantageous direction or perspective.
- the cameras can trigger at the same and/or different door opening angles.
- the household appliance is set up to trigger at least one further appliance function that is not a camera function when at least one trigger value is detected by the at least one inertial sensor of the camera/sensor module.
- the further device function can also be referred to as a "non-camera device function”.
- the at least one further device function includes a light control of the household appliance.
- Light generation can thus advantageously be adapted to the current door opening angle in a particularly varied manner.
- the light control can include a change in brightness and/or a change in color of the light generated by the household appliance.
- the household appliance can have at least one light-generating device that can be controlled, for example, directly by the camera/sensor module or via the control device.
- the light-generating device can have, for example, one or more LEDs.
- the light control comprises a light control of a light radiated into the treatment room by at least one light generating device.
- the smaller the door opening angle the brighter the treatment room can be illuminated. This is advantageous in order to standardize an overall brightness in the treatment room—possibly taking into account incident ambient light.
- a treatment room can be understood, for example, in the case of refrigeration devices as a cold room of a refrigerator, in the case of cooking devices, a cooking chamber, in the case of dishwashers, a rinsing chamber, etc.
- the at least one further device function can in particular include a brief increase in an illuminance in the treatment room at the time the at least one camera is triggered, which depends on the door opening angle.
- a brief increase in an illuminance in the treatment room at the time the at least one camera is triggered which depends on the door opening angle.
- this can include the emission of one or more flashes of light into the treatment room synchronously with a triggering time of a camera.
- the illuminance can be briefly increased in a targeted manner when the door is open at several angles.
- the light control includes light control of a light emitted by the household appliance into the environment.
- a color of light that is emitted by operating elements and/or decorative elements can be changed depending on the door opening angle. This can be advantageous, for example, in order to communicate the door open status to a user even more effectively.
- Voice control using the at least one inertial sensor can also be implemented particularly advantageously as a further device function.
- voice control can be activated or deactivated depending on the opening angle of the door.
- the camera/sensor module has a housing in which the at least one camera and on or in which the at least one inertial sensor are arranged.
- a housing in which the at least one camera and on or in which the at least one inertial sensor are arranged.
- the components of the module housed in the housing are particularly protected against external influences such as dirt, dust and/or moisture.
- the housing can consequently in particular be a dust-tight and/or moisture-tight housing.
- the housing has a transparent window ("see-through window") arranged in the field of view of the camera.
- the window can be in the form of a housing opening, for example, which is covered by a transparent pane, for example a glass pane or a plastic pane.
- a transparent pane for example a glass pane or a plastic pane.
- the use of a glass pane in particular has the advantage that the window is highly resistant, optically transparent and discolouration-proof.
- the transparent window or its pane can be heated, for example by means of a window heater, in particular of the module.
- the window heater can, for example, have one or more thin wires or electrically conductive, transparent conductor tracks (e.g. made of ITO) which serve as electrical resistance heating lines.
- ITO electrically conductive, transparent conductor tracks
- the use of window heating has the advantage, particularly in the case of refrigerators, that the window does not fog up when the door is opened.
- the window heating can be activated and deactivated as a function of a trigger value detected by the at least one inertial sensor, in particular a specific door opening angle. In this way, the advantage is achieved that the window heating is only heated in practically relevant movement states of the door, which saves on electricity costs.
- the window heating can be activated when the at least one inertial sensor detects that a first door opening angle has been reached when the door is opened, and deactivated when a second, larger door opening angle has been reached when the door is opened.
- the window heating cannot be activated when the door is closed.
- the housing of the camera/sensor module can also have an uncovered housing opening, which is arranged in the door behind a transparent window in the inner wall of the door.
- the transparent window on the inside wall of the door or its pane can also be heated.
- the housing and/or a door wall has a transparent, heatable window arranged in the field of view of the camera, the pane of which can be heated depending on at least one trigger value of at least one door movement parameter detected by the module or its at least one inertial sensor being reached.
- the camera/sensor module has an evaluation device that is set up, in particular programmed, to evaluate measurement signals from the at least one inertial sensor to determine the at least one parameter value, to compare them with one or more trigger values or setpoint values, and to detect at least one trigger value trigger action. So will achieves the advantage that the camera/sensor module has a higher level of "intelligence" and can therefore also carry out more complex control processes autonomously.
- the at least one action can include, for example, triggering the at least one camera of the module, triggering at least one additional camera of the household appliance, and so on.
- the evaluation device can have at least one processor unit such as a microprocessor, an FPGA, an ASIC, etc.
- the camera/sensor module can be controlled at least partially by the control device of the household appliance.
- the camera/sensor module can thus be designed in a particularly simple manner.
- the evaluation device is set up to be configured via the data interface. This achieves the advantage that flexible adjustment of the camera/sensor module is made possible, for example for the adjustment of trigger values such as predetermined door opening angles ("trigger angles"). For example, trigger values can be changed, newly added and/or deleted.
- the evaluation device has a data memory for this purpose, in particular a programmable non-volatile data memory such as an EEPROM or the like.
- the camera/sensor module has a housing, in particular as described above, the housing has an insertion opening for inserting the camera, and the insertion opening is closed by the communication circuit board or is covered.
- the communication circuit board can therefore serve as a cover for the housing and can be arranged in or on the housing, in particular inserted into the housing.
- the at least one camera, the at least one inertial sensor, the data communication device, the evaluation device and/or other components such as a light source for illuminating a field of view of the camera etc. can be accommodated in the housing.
- each camera or each camera module of the household appliance has a device-unique code.
- an identification routine for identifying the cameras e.g. a door camera and a treatment room camera
- the code is provided by means of a hardware-side coding of the camera or the camera module.
- this data can also be generated by the camera/sensor module itself, in particular its evaluation device.
- the camera in the standby state can be triggered using a corresponding control command.
- the household appliance is a refrigeration appliance and the treatment space is a refrigerated space.
- the refrigerating appliance may comprise a refrigerator, e.g.
- a camera for taking pictures of the refrigerator compartment can also be referred to as a "camera in fridge", CiF.
- the household appliance can in principle also be any other household appliance, in particular an electrically operated one, e.g. a large household appliance or a small household appliance, in particular a kitchen appliance, specifically in the sense of white goods.
- the household appliance can also be a cooking appliance, a laundry care appliance, a dishwasher, etc.
- Fig.1 shows a sectional top view of a sketch of a household appliance in the form of a refrigerator 1.
- the refrigerator 1 has a treatment chamber in the form of a refrigerator 2, the loading opening 3 of which on the front side can be closed by means of a door 5 that can be pivoted about a vertically aligned axis of rotation 4, as well as by the indicated by a double arrow.
- a camera/sensor module 6 is arranged in the door 5 .
- the camera/sensor module 6 has a camera 7 designed here as a camera module ("inherent in the module"), which is arranged in such a way that it can record images from the cold room 2 at least when the door 5 is only slightly open.
- the camera/sensor module 6 also has at least one door movement sensor in the form of an inertial sensor 8, a wired data communication device 9, for example, and an evaluation device 10. These components 7 to 10 are accommodated or attached in a housing 11 of the camera/sensor module 6 .
- the housing 11 can have a heatable see-through window (not shown) for the camera 7 .
- the at least one inertial sensor 8 is set up (i.e. arranged and designed) to detect at least one door movement parameter of the door 5 .
- these currently detected door movement parameters are compared with specified setpoint or trigger values. If the currently detected door movement parameters reach at least one trigger value such as a specific door opening angle (possibly also a combination of several trigger values such as a specific door opening angle in connection with a determination of a door opening), the evaluation device 10 can trigger a corresponding action, e.g. a corresponding trigger signal or trigger information output, specifically to an internal component 7 to 9 of the camera/sensor module 6 and/or via the data communication device 9 to a component external to the module.
- a corresponding action e.g. a corresponding trigger signal or trigger information output
- the camera/sensor module 6 is communicatively coupled to a control device 12 of the refrigerator 1, for example via a point-to-point data line or a bus system.
- the control device 12 is in particular a central control device for controlling the refrigerator 1.
- the refrigerator 1 also optionally has at least one additional camera 13, ie a camera that does not belong to the camera/sensor module 6 ("external to the module"), which is shown here is arranged, for example, in a body 14 of the refrigerator 1 (eg, as shown, on a side wall, on the ceiling, etc.), but can also be arranged in the door 5 .
- the module-external camera 13 can be directly communicatively coupled to the camera/sensor module 6 , for example via a point-to-point data line or a bus system, and/or coupled to the control device 12 .
- Each camera 7, 13 or the associated camera modules can each have several contacts or pins, e.g. for data transmission, power supply, etc. It is particularly advantageous if several of these pins are used as coding pins, which have fixed (possibly reconfigurable) signal states are occupied. From the signal assignment of these coding pins, a device-unique camera identifier can be linked to transmitted data.
- Image data can also be sent via the data communication device 9, e.g. to the control device 12 and/or to a screen 15 arranged on the outside, on which the images can be displayed.
- the data communication device 9 is in particular a bidirectional data communication device 9 for sending and receiving data, e.g. for receiving data such as control commands, calibration or configuration data from the control device 12. It has a bidirectional data interface for this purpose.
- the evaluation device 10 can be used to monitor or determine the achievement of a plurality of trigger values, one or more actions being able to be assigned to a trigger value.
- At least two actions can be associated with the same trigger value or different trigger values.

- the communication circuit board 20 is also fitted with a plug-in connection element 21 , which is connected to a matching mating plug-in connection element 25 of the camera 7 when the communication circuit board 20 is inserted into the housing 16 .
- the mating connector element 25 of the camera 7 can have a plurality of contacts or pins which are assigned fixed predetermined signal levels in order to encode the camera 7 .
- the camera 7 therefore has a device-unique hardware code or coding.
- the plug-in connection element 21 and the plug-in connection counter-element 25 are connected to one another by a simple plug-in movement to form a plug-in connection 21, 25 when the communication circuit board 20 is inserted into the housing 16.
- the plug connection 21, 25 also serves as a spacer between the communication circuit board 20 and the camera, in particular a base support 27 of the camera 7.
- the camera 7 can be held in the housing 16 by means of the communication circuit board 20.
- the camera 7, in particular its base support 27, and/or the communication circuit board 20 in the housing 16 can be held in the housing 16 by friction fit, positive fit (eg latching) and/or material connection (eg bonding).
- dedicated fasteners such as screws, clamps, pins, etc. can be used for mounting the camera 7, in particular its base support 27, and/or the communication circuit board 20 in or on the housing 16.
- the camera 7, in particular its base support 27, and/or the communication circuit board 20 can also be placed in a respective circumferential projection of the housing 16 which is formed on the inside.
- the communication circuit board 20 can also be placed on a rear edge of the housing 16 and thereby also forms a cover for the housing 16.
- a numerical specification can also include exactly the specified number as well as a usual tolerance range, as long as this is not explicitly excluded.
