Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent mismatching of respective hot water data, which the control means of a remote controller and a hot-water washing device main body store, by transmitting hot water washing control data to an appliance main body by a transmission means every constant time. SOLUTION: When a user inputs data for hot-water washing control such as a water quantity and hot water temperature for the switch part 22 of a remote controller, a memory part 24 stores the control data. Next, a control part 25 having a clock function transmits the control data from a transmission part 26 through an infrared ray emission element 27 to the control means 30 of a hot water washing device main body as infrared ray data at constant time everyday. Furthermore the infrared ray data are converted into data signals by a decoder part 32, input in the body control part 33 and washing and drying are performed. Thereby mismatching of the control data which the remote controller and the device body store respectively can be prevented by transmitting the control data at a constant time everyday even if the control data which the device body stores disappear by power failure.

The infrared light emitting element 27 is configured to transmit infrared data to the infrared light receiving element 31 of the main body of the hot water washing device.

The hot water washing data display section 3 is configured to display hot water washing data.

The control means 30 of the main body of the hot water cleaning apparatus is composed of an infrared light receiving element 31, a decoding section 32, a main body control section 33, a relay 34, a solenoid valve 35 and a fan 36.

The infrared light receiving element 31 is the infrared light emitting element 2
9 to receive infrared data.

The decoding unit 32 is configured to convert the signal output from the infrared light receiving element 31 into internally processable data.

The main body control unit 33 drives the solenoid valve 35 and the fan 36 via the relay 34 to perform cleaning and drying.

Next, the operation of the hot water washing remote control device according to the present embodiment having the above-described configuration will be described.

First, the user operates the switch section 2 of the remote controller 1.
When hot water washing control data such as the amount of water, hot water temperature, and drying temperature is input to 2, the hot water washing control data is stored in the storage unit 24. Then, the control unit 25 having a clock function transmits the warm water washing control data to the transmission unit 26 at 24 hours intervals at midnight every day regardless of the operation of the input unit 22.
Infrared data is transmitted from the infrared light emitting element 27 to the control means 30 of the main body of the hot water washing device.

Upon receiving the infrared data from the infrared light receiving element 31, the control means 30 of the main body of the hot water washing apparatus converts the infrared data into a data signal which can be internally processed by the decoding section 32 and inputs it to the main body control section 33. When the main body control unit 33 that has received the data signal performs cleaning and drying, the main body control unit 33, based on the information of the data signal, relays 34
The solenoid valve 35 and the fan 36 are driven via the to clean and dry.

When the user turns on the cleaning operation switch 11 and the drying operation switch 12 of the input section 22, that is, when the user performs cleaning or drying, the delay means 23 allows a certain time to elapse ( For example, 2 minutes later), the hot water washing control data is input to the control unit 25, and the control unit 25 sends the hot water washing control data to the hot water washing apparatus body and sends a washing / drying stop command to the hot water washing. Even if the user forgets to press the washing / drying stop switch, the washing and drying will automatically stop after 2 minutes because it will be sent to the main body of the device, and after that, the new hot water washing control data set by the user will be displayed. Based on this, washing and drying are performed.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the storage unit 24 stores the stored hot water washing control data at a fixed time every day by the transmitting unit 26 of the control means 3 of the hot water washing apparatus body.
No. 3 is transmitted to the hot water cleaning control data stored in the storage unit 24 and the hot water cleaning control data stored in the control means 33 of the main body of the hot water cleaning device.

Further, according to this embodiment, when the user performs cleaning or drying, the control section 25 transmits the hot water cleaning control data set by the user to the main body of the hot water cleaning device, and the cleaning / drying is performed. Since a stop command is sent to the main body of the hot water washing device, even if the user forgets to press the washing / drying stop switch, the washing and drying will automatically stop after 2 minutes, and the new setting set by the user will be performed thereafter. Washing and drying can be performed based on the hot water washing control data.

[0043]

As described above, according to the present invention, the hot water washing remote control device sets the hot water washing control data set by the user and stored in the storage means to the hot water washing device body at a certain time every day. Therefore, even if a power failure occurs and the hot water washing control data stored in the hot water washing device body is lost, the hot water washing control data stored in the storage means and the hot water washing control data stored in the hot water washing device body are stored. Inconsistencies can be prevented.

Further, according to the present invention, in the hot water washing remote control device, the hot water washing control data set by the user and stored in the storage means is stored in the hot water washing device main body even when the user performs washing or drying. Along with the transmission, a washing / drying stop command is sent to the main body of the hot water washing device, so even if the user forgets to press the washing / drying stop switch, washing and drying will automatically stop after a certain period of time. Since the washing and drying can be performed based on the new hot water washing control data set by the user, there is a discrepancy between the hot water washing control data stored in the storage means and the hot water washing control data stored in the hot water washing device body. Can be prevented.
