Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a clock timer for a domestic appliance. Further, the present invention relates to a domestic appliance with at least one clock timer.
  • the duration of some procedures in domestic appliances can be controlled by a clock timer.
  • cooking procedures can be advantageously controlled by the clock timer.
  • the user sets a predetermined time period before the procedure starts.
  • the clock timer is connected to a control unit of the domestic appliances. After the time period set by the user has been finished, the procedure stops automatically.
  • EP 0 056 335 B1 discloses a cooking appliance with a clock timer including a display device and a keyboard.
  • the user can set a predetermined time corresponding with the duration of cooking process.
  • the keyboard comprises a high number of keys, so that the clock timer is very complex. Further, it is not easy for the user to set up the predetermined time.
  • DE 196 06 115 A1 discloses an operating panel for a domestic appliance.
  • parameters like starting time for cooking, duration of cooking and end time of cooking can be modified.
  • the present invention relates to a clock timer for a domestic appliance, wherein:
  • the core idea of the present invention is the setting of the hours and minutes in different steps by the same keys.
  • the separate setting of the hours and minutes by switch-up key and switch-down key allows a fast setting up of the desired time period.
  • the use of the same switch-up key and the same switch-down key for setting the hours as well as the minutes allows a simple operation and contributes to a low complexity of the clock timer.
  • the display portions display the numerical values of the hours and the minutes of the time period by a two-digit number in each case.
  • the control unit confirms automatically the displayed numerical values of the hours and the minutes, respectively, in one of the setting modes, if the confirmation key has not been operated within a predetermined holding time.
  • the time period can also be set, if the user forgets the operation of the confirmation key.
  • the predetermined holding time is between one and two seconds.
  • the predetermined holding time is one and a half seconds.
  • the mode selection key can respond to an operation by the user, whereas the switch-up key, the switch-down key and the confirmation key are deactivated in the basic mode. This excludes faulty operation steps.
  • the switch-up key, the switch-down key and the confirmation key can respond to an operation by the user, whereas the mode selection key is deactivated in the setting modes.
  • the optical signals for the keys may be realized by an illumination or a blinking light behind, below, besides and/or around said keys. Further, the optical signals for the display portions may be realized by a blinking light of the two-digit numbers in each case.
  • the setting mode for the numerical value of the hours can be activated in the setting mode for the numerical value of the minutes by sufficient operations of the switch-up key, so that the numerical value of the minutes exceeds the value "60". This feature simplifies the operation of the clock timer.
  • the display device comprises an additional display portion for displaying the seconds of the time period. This allows a more exact setting of the time period.
  • the object of the present invention is further achieved by a domestic appliance according to the claim 12.
  • the domestic appliance according to the present invention comprises at least one clock timer as described above.
  • FIG 1 illustrates a schematic front view of a clock timer in a basic state according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • the clock timer includes a display device 10, a keyboard 16 and a control unit, which is not shown.
  • the display device 10 illustrates a numerical value of a time period.
  • the display device 10 comprises two display portions 12 and 14.
  • the one display portion 12 illustrates a numerical value of the hours of the time period.
  • the other display portion 14 illustrates a numerical value of the minutes of the time period.
  • each of the display portions 12 and 14 illustrates a double-digit number.
  • the keyboard 16 comprises a mode selection key 18, a switch-up key 20, a switch-down key 22 and a confirmation key 24.
  • the mode selection key 18, the switch-up key 20, the switch-down key 22 and the confirmation key 24 are arranged in a row below the display device 10.
  • optical signal 26 which respond to an operation, i.e. a touch by the user, are recognizable by an optical signal 26.
  • Said optical signal 26 may be realized by an illumination or by a blinking light behind, above, below, besides and/or around said key.
  • the optical signals 26 are represented by dashed frames enclosing the corresponding key. In FIG 1 the dashed frame encloses the mode selection key 18. Thus, in the basic state of the clock timer only the mode selection key 18 responds to an operation by the user.
  • optical signal 28 may also be realized by an illumination of the display portion 12 or 14 or by a blinking light behind, above, below, besides and/or around the display portions 12 or 14.
  • the optical signal 28 is a blinking light of the two-digit number.
  • the numerical value of the marked display portion 12 or 14 can be increased by the switch-up key 20 or decreased by the switch-down key 22.
  • the switch-up key 20 and the switch-down key 22 may be formed as one key, which is tiltable in two different directions corresponding to the functions of the switch-up key 20 and the switch-down key 22, respectively.
  • the switch-up key 20 and the switch-down key 22 may be formed as a rotary switch, wherein each rotating direction of said rotary switch corresponds to the functions of the switch-up key 20 and the switch-down key 22, respectively.
  • FIG 2 illustrates a schematic front view of the clock timer in a first setting mode according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • Said first setting mode has been activated after operating the mode selection key 18 by the user.
  • the first setting mode relates to the change of the numerical value of the minutes illustrated by the display portion 14.
  • the switch-up key 20, the switch-down key 22 and the confirmation key 24 respond to an operation by the user in the first setting mode, the switch-up key 20, the switch-down key 22 and the confirmation key 24 are marked by the optical signal 26.
  • the display portion 14 for the value of the minutes is marked by an optical signal 28, after operating the mode selection key 18 by the user.
  • the optical signal 28 is a blinking light of the two-digit number.
  • the optical signal 28 may be an illumination of the display portion 14 or a blinking light behind, above, below, besides and/or around the display portion 14.
  • the blinking light of the two-digit number is interrupted for a predetermined holding time. If no key is operated during said holding time, then the blinking light of the two-digit number is activated again.
  • said holding time is one and a half seconds.
  • the display portion 12 for the value of the hours is marked by the optical signal 28, which is the blinking light of the two-digit number as shown in FIG 3 . Now, the user can change of the numerical value of the hours.
  • the user can set the complete time period, i.e. the minutes as well as the hours, within the first setting mode by operating the switch-up key 20 until the numerical value exceeds the value "60".
  • the clock timer and the display device 10 are switched into the next setting mode, e.g. the end of the setting modes.
  • FIG 3 illustrates a schematic front view of the clock timer in a second setting mode according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • the second setting mode relates to the change of the numerical value of the hours.
  • the display portion 12 for the value of the hours is marked by the optical signal 28, i.e. the blinking light of the two-digit number.
  • the switch-up key 20, the switch-down key 22 and the confirmation key 24 are marked by the optical signal 26.
  • the numerical value of the hours can be set.
  • the optical signal 28, i.e. the blinking light of the two-digit number is interrupted. If none of the keys is operated during the predetermined holding time, which is preferably one and a half seconds, then the blinking light of the two-digit number is started again.
  • the clock timer and the display device 10 are switched into the basic state. If the user waits in the second setting mode, then automatically the basic state of the clock timer and the display device 10 is activated and the set time period is assumed.
