BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The foregoing and further aspects of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Reference will now be made in detail to the embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 illustrates a combined vacuum cleaning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a composite vacuum cleaning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

Referring to FIG. 1, the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus includes an air gun, a vacuum cleaner, a display unit, and a coin inlet. Of course, other configurations than those described above may be included in the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus proposed by the present invention.

The coin input port 100 is fed with a coin, and the composite vacuum cleaner is driven by the inserted coin. That is, when the coin is input, either the air gun 300 or the vacuum cleaner 400 is driven in the composite vacuum cleaner.

The air gun 300 injects high-pressure air to the outside, and the vacuum cleaner 400 sucks air.

The display unit 200 displays the driving state of the composite vacuum cleaner. Contents displayed on the display unit 200 will be described later.

2 is a diagram showing a configuration of a display unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, a configuration of a display unit according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

2, the display unit is divided into two display units. The first timer display unit 210 displays the time when the compound vacuum cleaner can be driven by the input coin and the second timer display unit 22 displays the time using the actual air gun or the vacuum cleaner. Hereinafter, the time displayed on the first timer display unit 210 is referred to as a first time, and the time displayed on the second timer display unit 220 is referred to as a second time.

Particularly, in the present invention, the first time is set to be longer than the second time.

The timer displayed on the first timer display unit 210 is driven regardless of whether the customer uses the air gun or the vacuum cleaner. On the other hand, the time displayed on the second timer display unit 220 is driven only when the customer uses the air gun or the vacuum cleaner, and the timer is stopped when the customer does not use the air gun or the vacuum cleaner.

To this end, the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus includes a pneumatic sensor for sensing whether air is injected into the inside of the vacuum cleaner and a vacuum sensor (or vacuum switch) for sensing whether the vacuum cleaner actually operates. Therefore, the time displayed on the second timer display unit 220 is driven by a timer when the air gun operates by the pneumatic sensor or when the vacuum cleaner is operated by the vacuum sensor. The vacuum switch may be formed in the body of the composite vacuum cleaner or may be installed in the hose of the vacuum cleaner. In this case, the operation signal of the vacuum switch is wirelessly transmitted to the control board installed inside the composite vacuum cleaner.

Therefore, the time displayed on the first timer display unit 210 is set to be longer than the time displayed on the second timer display unit 220 at the time when the composite vacuum cleaner is driven by coin insertion. For example, if the time displayed on the first timer display unit 210 is five minutes, the time displayed on the second timer display unit 220 is set to two minutes.

If the time displayed on the first timer display unit 210 is '0' and the time displayed on the second timer display unit 220 is '0', the time of '0' ', The driving is terminated. By doing so, the customer can use the air gun or the vacuum cleaner for the time displayed in the second timer display unit 220 within the time range displayed on the first timer display unit 210.

In addition, since the customer uses the combined vacuum cleaner during the time displayed on the first timer display unit 210, the time for the customer to stay in front of the combined vacuum cleaner increases compared to the conventional vacuum cleaner . In other words, if an existing customer does not use a hybrid vacuum cleaner, he or she will stay in front of the vacuum cleaner for a certain period of time to clean the inside of the vehicle.

3 is a flowchart illustrating an operation of a combined vacuum cleaning apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, the operation of the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

In step S300, the complex vacuum cleaner confirms that coins are inserted into the coin inlet. When the coin is inserted into the coin inlet, the composite vacuum cleaner displays a first time on the first timer display unit and a second time on the second timer display unit. As described above, the first time is set relatively larger than the second time.

In step S305, the hybrid vacuum cleaner waits for driving and decreases the time displayed on the first timer display part by the timer driving.

In step S310, the compound vacuum cleaner determines whether the time displayed on the first timer display unit is '0' or the time displayed on the second timer display unit is '0'. When the time displayed on the first timer display unit is '0' or the time displayed on the second timer display unit is '0', the composite vacuum cleaner cuts off the power supply so that the combined vacuum cleaner is not driven. When the time indicated on the first timer display unit And the time displayed on the second timer display unit is not '0', the process proceeds to step S315.

In step S315, the compound vacuum cleaner determines whether an air gun or a vacuum cleaner is driven by using a pneumatic sensor or a vacuum sensor (or a vacuum switch). The hybrid vacuum cleaner moves to step S320 when the air gun or the vacuum cleaner operates, and moves to step S325 if the air gun or the vacuum cleaner does not operate.

In step S320, when the air gun or the vacuum cleaner operates, the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus reduces the time displayed on the second timer display unit by the timer driving.

In step S325, the compound vacuum cleaner determines whether the time displayed on the first timer display unit is '0' or the time displayed on the second timer display unit is '0'. When the time displayed on the first timer display unit is '0' or the time displayed on the second timer display unit is '0', the composite vacuum cleaner cuts off the power supply so that the combined vacuum cleaner is not driven. When the time indicated on the first timer display unit And if it is not '0', the flow goes to step S330.

In step S330, the combined vacuum cleaner determines whether the operation of the air gun or the vacuum cleaner is stopped. The composite vacuum cleaner moves to step S335 when the air gun stops operating the vacuum cleaner.

In step S335, the composite vacuum cleaner temporarily stops the time displayed on the second timer display unit.

In step S340, the complex vacuum cleaner determines whether the time displayed on the first timer display unit is '0' or the time displayed on the second timer display unit is '0'. When the time displayed on the first timer display unit is '0' or the time displayed on the second timer display unit is '0', the composite vacuum cleaner cuts off the power supply so that the combined vacuum cleaner is not driven. When the time indicated on the first timer display unit And if the time displayed on the second timer display unit is not '0', the process proceeds to step S345.

In step S345, the compound vacuum cleaner determines whether an air gun or a vacuum cleaner is driven by using a pneumatic sensor or a vacuum sensor (or a vacuum switch). The hybrid vacuum cleaner moves to step S320 when the air gun or the vacuum cleaner operates, and moves to step S325 if the air gun or the vacuum cleaner does not operate.

In this way, the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus of the present invention includes two timer display units, and when the time displayed on the timer display unit is '0', the operation of the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus is stopped. In addition, the time displayed on the first timer display unit is driven by the timer regardless of whether the air gun or the vacuum cleaner is operated, while the time displayed on the second timer display unit is set to a timer only when the air gun or the vacuum cleaner operates. The time is reduced.

In addition, the customer can confirm the driving time of the combined vacuum cleaning apparatus by using the time displayed on the two timer display portions, and the use time of the air gun or the vacuum cleaner can be checked within the time range displayed on the first timer display portion and the second timer display portion Can be adjusted.

In addition, the compound vacuum cleaner may additionally form a warning sound output unit to warn the customer of the remaining use time. The alarm sound output unit outputs a warning sound when the time displayed on the first timer display unit and the time indicated by the second timer reach the set time. Of course, the warning sound outputting unit does not set the time for outputting the warning sound to be the same. That is, the alarm sound output unit sets the time displayed on the first timer output unit relatively larger than the time displayed on the second timer output unit. For example, when the time displayed on the first timer output unit is '1', the alarm sound output unit outputs a warning sound, whereas when the time displayed on the second timer output unit is '30 seconds', the alarm sound output unit outputs a warning sound do. Also, the alarm sound output unit is configured to output a warning sound different from the existing alarm sound if the time displayed on the first timer output unit and the time displayed on the second timer display unit are all within the set time range.

The combined vacuum cleaner outputs the time output to the first timer output unit and the second timer output unit in a blinking manner at the same time as a warning sound is generated.

According to the present invention, a coin may be inserted into a coin input port according to a selection of a customer during driving of the first timer and the second timer. That is, when the customer intends to extend the time displayed on the first timer display section and the second timer display section, the coin is inserted into the coin input port.

In this case, the customer can select a timer to extend the time. That is, the customer can extend only the first timer if he wants to extend the time displayed on the first timer display part, and can extend only the second timer if he wants to extend the time displayed on the second timer display part. Of course, when the same amount is input, the time displayed on the first timer display portion is extended more than the time displayed on the second timer display portion. That is, when the same amount is inputted into the coin slot, the first timer is extended by '2 minutes', and the second timer is extended by '30 seconds'.

Further, the present invention can extend both the time displayed on the first timer display unit and the time displayed on the second timer display unit. In this case, the time displayed on the first timer display unit is extended by '1 minute 30 seconds', and the time displayed on the second timer display unit is extended by '20 seconds'. Thus, the present invention can extend the time displayed on the first timer display unit and the time displayed on the second timer display unit in various forms.

Further, in the present invention, when the time displayed on the first timer display unit is smaller than the time displayed on the second timer display unit, the information is externally output. That is, when the time displayed on the first timer display unit is smaller than the time displayed on the second timer display unit, the information is externally output so that the customer can recognize the time. The customer can extend the second timer by inserting a coin into the coin slot if necessary. In other words, the customer can use air guns or air cleaners for a relatively low cost during the time indicated on the second timer display.

The present invention can add another embodiment. For example, when the time displayed on the first timer display unit reaches the time initially set on the second timer display unit, a warning sound can be output. In addition, when the time indicated on the first timer display unit reaches the time initially set in the second timer display unit and the time displayed on the first timer display unit set earlier than the time displayed on the second timer display unit, When the time is displayed on the timer display unit, a warning sound can be output. That is, if the time displayed on the first timer display unit initially set is' 5 minutes' and the time displayed on the second timer display unit is' 2 minutes' as described above, the time displayed on the first timer display unit is' 5 minutes , And outputs a warning sound when the ratio of the time displayed on the second timer display unit to the time displayed on the first timer display unit is '2/5' or more. As described above, when the time displayed on the second timer display unit is equal to or greater than a preset ratio with respect to the time displayed on the first timer display unit, a warning sound is output to induce the customer to increase the use time of the air gun or the air cleaner, Thereby preventing the driving of the composite vacuum cleaner from being terminated without using a vacuum cleaner.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the scope of the present invention .
