A first embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to FIGS. 1-7. A washing machine 1 comprises a water-receiving tub and a dehydration tub rotatively mounted in the water-receiving tub and is arranged into a conventional fully automatic washing machine wherein a washing operation from a wash step to a dehydration step is automatically performed. The washing machine 1 includes a top cover 2 mounted on its top. A folded lid 3 is mounted on the top cover 2 for closing and opening an access opening (not shown) through which clothes are put into and taken out of the tub.
A cavity 6 is formed in the front portion of the top cover 2 as shown in FIG. 1 and further in FIG. 2. An operation panel 5 equipped with a transmitter 4 is drawably housed in the cavity 6. The cavity 6 has two guide grooves (not shown) formed in its right-hand and left-hand inner side walls respectively. The operation panel 5 is inserted along the guide grooves to be housed in the cavity 6. In the condition that the operation panel 5 is housed in the cavity 6, a user's hand is applied to a hand-catching portion 7 formed in the lower front of the operation panel 5 to be pulled toward the user's side such that the operation panel 5 is drawn out toward the user's side together with the transmitter 4.
FIG. 3 shows an arrangement of the operation panel 5.
The transmitter 4 is drawably put into a right-hand half concave mounting section 8 from above. The operation panel 5 has in the other left-hand half portion key switches 9-11 for manually setting operation steps of WASH, RINSE and
DEHYDRATION respectively. The operation panel 5 also includes a digital display 12, key switches 13-16 for
BUZZER-OFF, RINSE WITH WATER-SUPPLY, STARCHING and TUB
CLEANING and corresponding LED's 17-20. The operation panel 5 further includes display sections 21-24 for displaying the steps of SOAKING, WASH, RINSE and DEHYDRATION respectively.
The transmitter 4 includes a START/INTERRUPT key switch 25, a NEURAL & FUZZY CONTROL course setting key switch 26, a
COURSE-CHANGING key switch 27, display sections 28-32 displaying the set courses, a WATER-LEVEL setting key switch 33, a display section 34 displaying the set water level, a
RESERVE key switch 35, a current time setting key switch 36, a CANCEL key switch 37 for canceling the reserved operation, an operation knob 38 for setting a reserved time for initiation of the washing operation, a display section 39 displaying the current time in the digital mode, and a display section 40 displaying the reserved time in the digital mode.The transmitter 4 is further provided with a display section 41 displaying an indication of "IN
OPERATION" and a display section 43 serving as signal delivery display means for flashing several times, for example, when the contents of a washing operation set by the above-described various key switches and the operation knob 38 are transferred to the washing machine 1 by means of infrared rays radiated from a light-emitting section 42 provided in the rear of the washing machine 1. Of the above-described control command setting key switches, those having a lower frequency of operation are mounted in the operation panel of the washing machine 1 and those having a higher frequency of operation are mounted in the transmitter 4.
A first light-receiving section 44 serving as an attachment mode receiving section is provided in the inner portion of the cavity 6 formed in the top cover 2 so that it corresponds to the light-emitting section 42 of the transmitter 4. A second light-receiving section 45 serving as remote control mode receiving section is provided in the right-hand end of the front of the top cover 2. A
START/INTERRUPT key switch 46 is provided in the vicinity of the second light-receiving section 45, as shown in detail in
FIG. 5.
First and second detection switches 47 and 48 are provided on the bottom of the cavity 6 of the top cover 2, as shown in FIG. 6. First and second ribs 49 and 50 are provided on the underside of the operation panel 5, as shown in FIG. 7. When the operation panel 5 is drawn out of the cavity 6, the first detection switch 47 is actuated by the first rib 49 so that the first light-receiving section 44 is rendered effective. When the operation panel 5 is retracted into the cavity 6, the second detection switch 48 is actuated by the second rib 50 so that the second lightreceiving section 45 is rendered effective.
In operation, the various switches mounted on the operation panel 5 and the various switches and the operation knob 38 on the transmitter 4 are operated in the condition that the operation panel 5 is drawn out of the cavity 6.
Upon operation of these switches, the infrared rays representative of the commands regarding the washing operation are radiated from the light-emitting section 42.
The infrared rays are received by the first light-receiving section 44 to be supplied to the washing machine 1.
The transmitter 4 is detached from the operation panel 5 drawn out of the cavity 6, and then, the operation panel 5 is returned into the cavity 6. When the key switches and the operation knob 38 on the transmitter 4 are operated in this condition, the infrared rays representative of the commands regarding the washing operation are radiated from the light-emitting section 42 and received by the second light-receiving section 45 to be supplied to the washing machine 1.
The transmitter 4 is detachable from the washing machine 1. The commands regarding the washing operation can be supplied to the washing machine 1 by the transmitter 4 even when the user is away from the washing machine 1.
Accordingly, although the user needs to go to the washing machine to operate the switches in the prior art, he or she is not forced to access the washing machine 1 to operate the various switches every time he or she needs to operate them.
The transmitter 4 is housed in the concave portion 8 formed in the operation panel 5. Accordingly, the place to put the transmitter 4 in is provided and a possibility of loss of the transmitter 4 is reduced.
The control command signals can be transmitted even in the condition that the transmitter 4 is housed in the concave portion 8. Thus, the signal transmission can be performed without the transmitter 4 being taken out of the concave portion 8, which provides convenience.
Additionally, the transmitter 4 can be easily taken out of the concave portion 8 of the operation panel 5 since the operation panel 5 can be drawn out of the washing machine forwardly.
FIGS. 8 and 9 illustrate another embodiment of the invention. A light-emitting section 51 is provided next to the second light-receiving section 45 in the front of the top cover 2. The infrared rays from the light-emitting section 51 is used to transmit data of progress of the washing operation, for example, data of an operation step in progress, a residual time period of the step and the like.
On the other hand, the transmitter 4 is provided with a light-receiving section 52 as well as the light-emitting section 42. Data transmitted from the washing machine 1 is received by the light-receiving section 52. Furthermore, the transmitter 4 includes a display section 53 for displaying the operation step in progress on the basis of the received data. A display section 54 provided instead of the display section 39 displays in the digital mode the residual time period of the operation step in progress as well as the current time.
In the second embodiment, progress of the washing operation and the like can be confirmed even at a place away from the washing machine 1, which provides further convenience. Furthermore, the dehydration tub sometimes produces abnormal vibration when clothes are unbalanced in the tub. In this case, the dehydration step takes an unusually long time to be completed and consequently, smooth progress of the washing operation is prevented. Even in the occurrence of such an abnormal condition as described above, the user can recognize the abnormal condition by looking at the contents displayed on the transmitter 4. Consequently, the washing machine 1 can be interrupted for the user to balance the clothes in the dehydration tub. Thus, measures can be quickly taken against the abnormal condition of the washing machine 1.
The foregoing disclosure and drawings are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention and are not to be interpreted in a limiting sense. The only limitation is to be determined from the scope of the appended claims.
