(Embodiment 1)
As shown in FIG. 1, the control means 1 built in the main body 102 includes a power signal determination means 2 that determines an energization state of the main body 102 as a signal, an electric motor energization means 3 that controls energization of the electric motor, Electric appliance energizing means 4 for controlling energization of the equipment, and power supply means capable of holding the power supply of the power signal determining means 2 even when the power is turned off for a certain time (about 2 seconds) using a high capacity capacitor such as an electric double layer capacitor 5, and further includes a power switch 108 for turning on / off the energization of the main body 102 and an electric device 6 supplied with power from the main body 102. Further, the power signal determination means 2 performs power signal determination according to the flowchart shown in FIG. When the power supply signal rise is determined in the determination 14 of FIG. 3 and the power supply signal rise is detected, the processing is divided according to the power-off time before the power supply signal rises in the determinations 15 and 17. If the power-off time is 2 seconds or more in the decision 15, the motor is operated in the process 16; if the power-off time is 0.3 to 2 seconds in the decision 17, When the electrical device is energized and the electrical device is energized, the electrical device is shut off in process 19, and when the electrical device is not energized, the electrical device is energized in process 20. It is configured. The basis for the time of 0.3 seconds used for the judgment is generally a time to prevent misjudgment between the operation of the power switch and the instantaneous power failure because the instantaneous power failure of the power source is 0.2 seconds or less. . Further, the basis for the time of 2 seconds used for the determination is set to a time that is not too long in consideration of user convenience. As the power supply signal determination means 2, there is a microcomputer or the like.

  In the above configuration, first, when the power switch 108 is turned on, the power signal determination unit 2 determines that the power supply is started in a state where the power source is turned off for 2 seconds or more, and sends a signal to the motor energization unit 3 to send a signal to the motor 101. Turn on the power. The electric motor energizing means 3 and the electric equipment energizing means 4 only need to have a function of switching between energization and de-energization of the power source, and are constituted by semiconductor switching elements such as relays and triacs, for example. Next, as shown in FIG. 2, when the power switch 108 is turned off for a certain time (between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds) and turned back on, the power signal determination means 2 gives an energization control command to the electrical equipment. The electric device energizing means 4 is sent and the electric device 6 is energized, and the electric device 6 is energized. The power switch 108 is again turned off for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds) and turned back on. In this case, the power signal determination unit 2 determines that the command is an energization control command to the electric device, and cuts off the signal to the electric device energization unit 4 and cuts off the power to the electric device 6. As described above, when the user operates the power switch 108, in addition to the operation of the electric motor, it is possible to operate the electric device connected to the ventilation blower.

(Embodiment 2)
As shown in FIG. 4, the electric device 6 is built in the main body 102 and integrated.

  In the above-described configuration, by integrating the main body 102 and the electric device 6, it is possible to omit the work of wiring the main body 102 and the electric device 6, and to provide an inexpensive ventilation blower that does not require a remote control device. Can do.

(Embodiment 3)
As shown in FIG. 5, the illuminator 7 is built in the main body 102 and integrated.

  In the above configuration, the motor and the illuminator can be operated by operating the power switch. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the motor and the illuminator are naturally off when the power switch is in the off state, but the illuminator is turned on by turning on the power switch. Further, when the power switch is turned off for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds), the illuminator is energized while maintaining the lighting state. Further, when the power switch is turned on for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds), the power supply to the motor is cut off. Thus, both the illuminator and the electric motor can be operated by operating the power switch.

  On the other hand, when using in combination with other lighting devices such as an office, it is more convenient to give priority to the operation of the electric motor. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the electric motor is operated when the power switch is turned on from the off state. Further, when the power switch is turned off for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds), the illuminator is energized while maintaining the operation of the electric motor. Further, when the power switch is turned off for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds), the power supply to the illuminator is cut off. Thus, when ventilation ventilation is used fundamentally, operation of an electric motor can be performed preferentially. Note that the operation state transition tables shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 are examples, and the effects are the same even if the operation state combinations are not described.

(Embodiment 4)
As shown in FIG. 8, the power supply signal determination unit 2 is connected to a setting unit 8 that can set a priority device.

  In the above configuration, the initial operation when the power is turned off is changed to the setting of the setting unit 8. The setting unit 8 only needs to have a switch function that can be easily operated by the user. For example, the setting unit 8 includes a slide switch. For example, when mainly used as illumination, the setting unit is set to illumination priority. When the lighting is set to be prioritized, the illuminator 7 is turned on when the power is turned off. Thereafter, when the electric motor 101 is operated, the electric motor 101 can be operated by turning on and off the power switch for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 second and 2 seconds). Moreover, when using mainly as ventilation ventilation, a setting part is set to ventilation ventilation priority. When ventilation ventilation is set with priority, the motor 101 is operated when the power supply is turned off. Thereafter, when the illuminator 7 is turned on, the illuminator 7 can be operated by turning on and off the power switch for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds). Thus, the priority operation device can be switched by the setting of the setting unit 8.

(Embodiment 5)
As shown in FIG. 9, the power detection unit 9 for determining the day and night is connected to the power signal determination unit 2.

  In the above configuration, the initial operation when switching from the power-off state to the on-state is switched between day and night. The light detection unit 9 measures the illuminance with an optical sensor, determines day and night from the result, and sends the signal to the power signal determination means 2. The power signal determination unit 2 determines an initial operation when the power switch is turned on by the received signal. In the subsequent on / off operation of the power switch for a certain time, the energized and deenergized devices are switched over. By doing in this way, when the power switch is turned on in the daytime, priority is given to the operation of the electric motor, and when the power switch is turned on at night, priority can be given to lighting the illuminator.

(Embodiment 6)
As shown in FIG. 10, the motor speed switching means 11 is connected to the motor 10 having the speed switching between the strong operation and the weak operation. The motor speed switching means 11 only needs to have a function of switching the energization state of the power source, and is configured by combining a plurality of semiconductor switching elements such as relays and triacs, for example.

  In the above configuration, the operation of switching between the strong and weak driving of the motor and the operation of the illuminator can be performed by operating the power switch. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the power switch is off, the motor and the illuminator are naturally off, but the illuminator is turned on by turning on the power switch. Furthermore, when the power switch is turned on for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds), the motor is operated weakly. Further, when the power switch is turned off for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds), the electric motor is strongly operated. Further, when the power switch is turned on for a certain time (for example, between 0.3 seconds and 2 seconds), the operation of the electric motor is stopped. In this way, the speed of the electric motor can be switched and the illuminator can be operated by operating the power switch.

(Embodiment 7)
As shown in FIG. 12, the power supply signal determination unit 2 is connected to a storage unit 12 that stores an operation state. The storage unit 12 is composed of, for example, an EEPROM (electrically erasable / rewritable read-only storage device).

  In the above configuration, the storage unit 12 stores the operation state every time the operation state is switched. Then, the power supply signal determination unit 2 sets the operation state to the operation state stored in the storage unit 12 when detecting that the power supply off state is changed to the on state. In this way, when the power switch is turned on, the previous operating state is restored.

(Embodiment 8)
As shown in FIG. 13, the main body 102 is provided with a display unit 13 that displays an operation state.

  The display unit 13 is composed of, for example, an LED or a liquid crystal display.

  In the above configuration, the operation state is displayed on the display unit 13. The user can easily recognize the operating state and can provide an easy-to-use ventilation blower.

  The ventilation blower according to the present invention can provide an inexpensive ventilation blower that does not require a remote control device because an electric device connected to the electric motor can be operated by turning on and off the power switch for a certain time. it can.
