Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dishwasher with an optical operating sequence display for displaying washing program sequences.
  • wash program sequences usually begin with a pre-wash cycle, which is followed by a main wash phase after an exchange of wash liquid. After the last rinsing process, there is a rinse phase, which is followed by a drying process in order to dry the cleaned dishes.
  • DE 101 44 668 discloses an operating sequence display in the form of a light strip for a washing machine, which consists of a larger number of light elements, a growing number of light elements of the light strip lighting up as the washing program progresses or the wash drum rotates at an increasing speed.
  • the use of light strips as an operating sequence indicator is disadvantageous for design reasons, since these are generally not recognizable from a distance in the case of a small version or produce a strong and thus disruptive light emission in the case of a large version.
  • such operating sequence displays cannot be used for dishwashers, since dishwashers do not have a rotating washing drum.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a dishwasher with an operating sequence display which displays both the current status and the progress of the washing program sequence of the dishwasher in a convenient and easily understandable manner.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a dishwasher with an operating sequence display which allows the dishwasher program sequence to be recognized from a distance.
  • the preferably infinitely variable regulation of the luminous intensity of the illumination elements of the operating sequence display means that the status and the progress of the washing program sequence can be displayed in a convenient and easily understandable manner.
  • the design of the operating sequence display and the luminous intensity of the illumination elements are selected so that the washing program sequence of the dishwasher can be recognized from a distance by an operator. Due to the adjustable luminous intensity of the illumination elements, excessive and therefore disruptive light radiation from the operating sequence display can be avoided.
  • Dishwashers generally have an electronic program control, which controls the components of the dishwasher involved in the operating sequence of the dishwasher in accordance with a preprogrammed washing program sequence.
  • the operating sequence display is also controlled by the electronic program control, the program control regulating the luminous intensity of the individual illumination elements of the operating sequence display in accordance with the current status of the washing program sequence.
  • the number of illuminating elements is controlled depending on the operation of the dishwasher.
  • the operating sequence display can be controlled by the program control in such a way that an increasing number of illumination elements lights up as the washing program progresses and a maximum number of illumination elements is illuminated at the end of the washing program sequence.
  • the operating sequence display can also be controlled by the program control in such a way that a maximum number of illumination elements illuminates at the beginning of the washing program sequence and a decreasing number of illumination elements illuminates as the washing program sequence progresses.
  • These different modes for controlling the operating sequence display serve the purpose of optically displaying the current status of the washing program sequence to an operator, even if the operator is at a distance from the dishwasher. The operator can thus see the current status at a glance Inform the dishwasher that you have reached the program step.
  • the information represented by the operating sequence display is easy to understand, since a change in the operating state of the dishwasher also causes a specific change either in the luminous intensity or in the number of illuminating elements of the operating sequence display that light up.
  • the program sequence display according to the invention also enables quick information about the time progress of the washing program currently being carried out, because it is presented as an optically easily detectable analog display.
  • a further possibility of optically displaying the operating state of the dishwasher is that, starting from a first illumination element of the operating sequence display, only the illumination element lights up whose position within the operating sequence display corresponds to the current status of the washing program sequence.
  • the operating sequence display is controlled in such a way that, starting with a first illumination element of the operating sequence display at the beginning of the washing program, an increasing number of illumination elements illuminate with increasing duration of the washing program sequence and at the end of the washing program a maximum number or all illumination elements of the operating sequence display light up.
  • the operating sequence display of the dishwasher according to the invention can also be regulated in such a way that all the illumination elements light up when the dishwasher is in operation.
  • the operating sequence display is controlled in such a way that all lighting elements of the operating sequence display light up during operation of the dishwasher, so that an operator can reliably determine at a glance whether the dishwasher is in operation or not, even from a distance.
  • the luminous intensity of the individual illumination elements is controlled as a function of the brightness of the surroundings of the dishwasher.
  • the luminous intensity of the operating sequence display can be adapted to the brightness of the surroundings of the dishwasher, on the one hand to avoid excessive and thus disruptive light emission from the operating sequence display and on the other hand to ensure the visibility of the operating sequence display from a distance from the dishwasher.
  • the operating sequence display of the dishwasher according to the invention can also be controlled such that a number or all of the illumination elements of the operating sequence display light up intermittently when the washing program sequence is one has reached a certain status or an accident has occurred.
  • the intermittent operation of the illumination elements has an attention-grabbing effect, which is particularly suitable for displaying accidents.
  • a further possibility of using the operating sequence display to indicate different operating states of the dishwasher is to equip the operating sequence display with illumination elements of different colors and to control them in such a way that each color symbolizes a different display function.
  • the illumination elements can consist of any desired illuminants, with light-emitting diodes or ends of light guides connected to light sources being particularly well-suited due to the free choice of color and their simple controllability.
  • the lighting elements of the operating sequence display are preferably arranged in a side surface of the dishwasher. This arrangement brings with it the special optical effect that when the illumination elements light up, the outlines of the dishwasher are at least partially illuminated.
  • the lighting elements of the operating sequence display can be arranged in the side of a cover forming the front of the dishwasher. Additionally or alternatively, the illumination elements of the operating sequence display can also be arranged in the border of a front door of the dishwasher.
  • dishwashers in particular, which are integrated in the substructure between other household machines or other cupboard components in a kitchen unit, the arrangement of the illumination elements in the. lateral area of the dishwasher, the optical effect that the gaps between the dishwasher and the neighboring cabinet components or household machines are illuminated more evenly when illuminating illumination elements.
  • a screen covers at least partially the illumination elements of the operating sequence display, so that the light rays generated by the illumination elements are at least partially indirectly emitted.
  • the household machines and cupboard components integrated in a kitchen unit are provided with similar panels or front panels or furniture leaves in order to obtain a uniform impression.
  • the furniture sheet covering the front of the dishwasher projects so far beyond the lateral dimensions of the dishwasher that it covers the lighting elements of the operating sequence display arranged on the side of the dishwasher and thereby a gap between the adjacent cabinet components or household machines and the dishwasher is retained.
