Disclosure of Invention
It is an object of the present invention to propose an improved garment care device which avoids or mitigates the above-mentioned problems.
The invention is defined by the independent claims. The independent claims define advantageous embodiments.
To this end, the garment care device according to the invention comprises:
-a sensor (101) connected to the control unit (104) for generating an output signal characterizing the movement of the garment care device;
-a display (102, 302) for displaying at least one light indicator (103, 303), wherein the control unit (104) is adapted to:
a) identifying some movement characteristics in the output signal that reflect that the garment care device is moving,
b) controlling the switching of the at least one light indicator (103, 303) based on the movement characteristics, and
c) switching the at least one light indicator (303) according to a given light pattern.
The present solution gives the user visual feedback on the movement characteristics of the device. First, this visual feedback through the light indicator provides an informative movement characteristic. For example, the visual feedback may indicate that the user is performing short strokes or long strokes. Second, visual feedback is also helpful for the way the user modifies the mobile device. For example, if the switching of the light indication reflects the movement characteristic of the device as a short stroke, the user may decide to move the device with a longer stroke, especially if he knows that the device may enter a particular operation mode associated with a long stroke.
The invention also relates to a method of controlling at least one light indicator in a garment care device as described above.
A detailed description of the present invention and other aspects will now be given below.

Detailed Description
Fig. 1 illustrates a first embodiment of a garment care device 100 according to the invention.
The garment care device 100 comprises a sensor 101 connected to the control unit 104 for generating an output signal characterizing the movement of the garment care device.
The garment care device further comprises a display 102 for displaying at least one light indicator 103.
The control unit 104 is adapted to:
a) identifying in the output signal a movement characteristic that reflects that the garment care device is moving,
b) controlling the switching of said at least one light indicator 103 based on said movement characteristics, an
c) The at least one light indicator 303 is switched according to a given light pattern.
This also applies to the apparatus illustrated in fig. 3.
For example, light indicator 103 corresponds to a surface mounted light emitting diode ("LED"). Alternatively, the light indicator corresponds to a separate LED or LED module.
For example, the sensor 101 is an accelerometer of the micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) type, adapted to generate at least one acceleration signal along any axis X, Y, Z, the X, Y, Z axis forming the orthogonal reference: z corresponds to the vertical direction and X-Y forms the horizontal plane.
In order to generate steam, the garment care device illustrated in fig. 1 comprises: a water tank 105; a steam generator 106 which receives water from the water tank 105. The steam generated in the steam generator 106 exits via a steam burst opening 107, the steam burst opening 107 being arranged in the soleplate S. In order to control the amount of steam generated, a water pump 108 (preferably controlled by the control unit 104) is used to send water from the water tank 105 to the steam generator 106.
Preferably, the sensor 101 is arranged in the handle 109. For example, by doing so, the risk of damage to the sensor 101 as a result of water leaking from the water tank 105 may be reduced. Furthermore, an additional protective housing (not shown) may provide additional protection to the sensor 101 (and/or the control unit 102).
Controlling the switching of the light indicators means any of the following types of control:
-switching-to full brightness,
-switching-off of the switching-on state,
-increasing the intensity of the lamp light by a certain percentage,
-reducing the lamp light intensity by some percentage.
The brightness of a given light indicator is illustrated in fig. 2 and 4 by the corresponding light indicator blackened surface (fully or partially).
Fig. 2 illustrates a display 102 for displaying at least one light indicator in a garment care device according to fig. 1.
In this example, for simplicity of illustration, only two light indicators are arranged: a first light indicator 103a, and a second light indicator 103 b. However, a larger number of light indicators may be similarly used.
Preferably, the light indicators have different sizes.
The movement characteristic corresponds to the amount of linear displacement of the garment care device along a given direction D.
The amount of linear displacement may preferably correspond to the stroke length of the user in the given direction D when using the garment care device.
For example, the given direction D corresponds to the X axis.
Fig. 5A is an exemplary illustration of a signal AS generated by a sensor 101 for use in a garment care device according to the present invention.
In the present case, the sensor 101 is an accelerometer, and the output signal generated by the sensor 101 is an acceleration signal AS, which varies over time in a given direction DChemotherapeutics, such as, for example: the X axis. The unit for the vertical axis of the image is milli g (or abbreviated "mg"), where 1 g-9.81 m/s2。
The characteristic of the output signal corresponds to the time period d1 between two consecutive zero crossings of the output signal. To classify the stroke length of the user, the time period d1 is compared with a given duration threshold d 0:
-if the measured time period d1 is less than the given duration threshold d0, the user's stroke using the garment care device is considered a short stroke.
-if the measured time period d1 is greater than the given duration threshold d0, the user's stroke using the garment care device is considered a long stroke.
The given duration threshold d0 corresponds to the average value of the time period between two consecutive zero crossings of the output signal, which corresponds to the average value of the length of the user stroke.
By definition, the stroke length along a given direction D corresponds to the linear distance between the starting position of the garment care device with zero velocity to the next position with zero velocity.
By definition, the average of the stroke length of a user is the average linear distance that allows classifying stroke lengths between short strokes and long strokes. The short stroke is less than the average linear distance and the long stroke is greater than the average linear distance.
Based on whether a short stroke or a long stroke is detected, the garment care device is preferably adapted to modify the characteristics of some operation modes of the device. Thus, for example: the temperature of the soleplate may be varied, the temperature of the steam chamber may be varied, and the amount of steam generated may be varied accordingly.
It is noted that if the output signal generated by the sensor 101 contains a certain level of noise, for example +/-50mg, the time period d1 between two consecutive zero crossings of the output signal should be calculated with a shift of the estimated value corresponding to the noise level. An example is illustrated in fig. 5B.
Preferably, a given duration threshold d0 has a duration in the range [ 200; 800 ms, preferably 550 ms.
The control unit 104 is configured to control the switching of a certain number of light indicators, and the number of light indicators depends on the amount of linear displacement (i.e. distance).
In particular, if the amount of linear displacement is below a given threshold, the number of light indicators switched to full brightness is smaller than the number of light indicators switched to full brightness if said amount of linear displacement is above said given threshold. The given threshold corresponds to a linear displacement value between short strokes and long strokes.
For example:
-if a short stroke is detected, a light indicator is switched-on.
-if a long stroke is detected, the two light indicators are switched-on.
Alternatively:
as shown in view (b) of fig. 2, if a short stroke is detected, one light indicator is switched to full brightness and one light indicator is switched-connected to have partial brightness,
as shown in view (c) of fig. 2, if a long stroke is detected, both light indicators are switched to full brightness.
Preferably, the movement characteristic reflects that the garment care device is not moving.
For example, a condition where the garment care device is not moving may be detected by measuring acceleration signals along either axis of X, Y, Z. In particular, if along a given axis the acceleration signal has a value lower than 50mg (or more generally, the noise level), where 1 g-9.81 m/s2It may be considered that the device is not moving along the given axis.
The absence of movement of the garment care device may be detected along one or more axes X, Y, Z. If multiple axes are considered, the acceleration signal must have a value below 50mg along each of these axes in order to conclude that the garment care device is not moving.
Preferably, the control unit 104 is adapted to switch at least one light indicator among said at least one light indicator 103 if a state of no movement of the garment care device is detected. This also applies to the apparatus illustrated in fig. 3.
For example, if a state in which the garment care device is not moving is detected:
switching only one light indicator (e.g. light indicator 103a) with less than full brightness, as illustrated in view (a) of fig. 2, or
Switching all light indicators with full brightness as illustrated in view (c) of fig. 2.
Preferably, the movement characteristic reflects that the garment care device is moving.
For example, the state in which the garment care device is moving may be detected by measuring acceleration signals along either axis of X, Y, Z. In particular, if along a given axis the acceleration signal has a value higher than 50mg (or more generally, the noise level), where 1 g-9.81 m/s2It may be considered that the device is moving along the given axis, so moving as a whole.
Preferably, if a state in which the garment care device is moving is detected, the control unit 104 is adapted to switch at least one light indicator 303 according to a given light pattern, wherein the given light pattern corresponds to a given number of the at least one light indicator being switched; a light brightness mode; or a running light effect (knight rider effect).
In a given number of conditions in which the light pattern corresponds to the at least one light indicator being switched, the light indicator may be switched on or off depending on the movement detected by the device. The actual number of light indicators switched (in the example a number) may vary depending on the detected movement.
In examples where the light pattern is a light intensity pattern, the intensity of the light indicator may vary depending on the movement detected by the device. In the example of a single light indicator, the indicator may occupy multiple levels of brightness depending on the movement detected by the device. Alternatively, in a situation where there are multiple light indicators, the brightness of the individual light indicators may be changed to a predetermined pattern in response to a given detected movement.
Fig. 3 illustrates a second embodiment of a garment care device 300 according to the invention.
This embodiment comprises an iron 301 cooperating with a base unit 302 via a hose line 308. The base unit 302 includes a water tank 304, a boiler 307, and a water pump 305, the water pump 305 being for supplying water from the water tank 304 into the boiler 307. The boiler 307 generates steam as a fluid in the hose line 308. The steam reaching the iron 301 is further heated in the steam generator 106. The control unit 104 is preferably arranged in the base unit 302 and communicates with the sensor 101 via wires embedded in the hose line 308. The hose line 308 is also adapted to supply electrical power to the steam generator 106.
The garment care device further comprises a display 302 for displaying at least one light indicator 303, which works similarly to the display 102 described hereinbefore. One difference is that the number of light indicators is larger (i.e. five light indicators 303a, 303b, 303c, 303d, 303 e). The display 302, sensor 101 and control unit 104 function similarly to the embodiment of fig. 1.
Preferably, the control unit 104 is adapted to switch the at least one light indicator 303 according to a given light pattern if the movement status of the garment care device 300, in particular the movement status of the iron 301, is detected.
Preferably, the light pattern is a water light effect. The water-flowing light effect is characterized by one of the light indicators being at full brightness at any given time while the adjacent two light indicators have a limited brightness (e.g., 30%). The remaining light indicators are switched-off. The position of the full brightness light indicator on display 302 is shifted over time according to the sequence of displays shown in FIG. 4: (b) and (c), (d), (e), (f), (e), (d), (c), (b), etc.
In other words, the water-flowing light effect is defined as a light sequence in which, at a first stage in the light sequence, as shown in fig. 4(b), a single light indicator of the plurality of light indicators is illuminated to full brightness, light indicators adjacent to the illuminated indicator are illuminated to limited brightness, and the remaining indicators are turned off. As shown in fig. 4(c), in a second phase of the light sequence, one of the indicators of limited brightness is illuminated to full brightness, the indicators adjacent to that indicator are illuminated to limited brightness, and the remaining indicators are turned off. As shown by the transition from fig. 4(b) to fig. 4(c), this transition gives the visual effect that the fully illuminated indicator has been shifted to an adjacent indicator in the first direction. This transition is repeated sequentially until the fully illuminated indicator is the last indicator in the first direction, i.e.: as shown in fig. 4(f), there are no additional adjacent light indicators in the first direction. Here, the direction of progress is reversed and the fully illuminated indicators progress in a sequential manner along a second direction (which is opposite the first direction), as shown in the transition from fig. 4(f) to fig. 4 (e). The above transition is performed in the second direction until the fully illuminated indicator is the last indicator in the second direction. This sequence of lights above may then be repeated, switching between the first and second directions. Thus, the water-flowing light effect provides a visual effect that the fully illuminated light indicator progresses forward and backward in a step-wise manner across the plurality of light indicators.
Preferably, the movement characteristic corresponds to a speed (i.e. velocity) at which the garment care device is displaced along the given direction (D). This applies, for example, to the devices illustrated in fig. 1 and 3. For example, the velocity of the displacement may be obtained by integrating the corresponding acceleration signal.
Preferably, the control unit 104 is adapted to control the switching of a number of light indicators in said at least one light indicator 103, 303, while the number of light indicators depends on the speed of the displacement.
For example, the number of light indicators that are switched (with full or partial brightness) is proportional to the speed of displacement. In other words, the higher the speed of the device, the greater the number of light indicators that are switched.
Preferably, the portable device is a garment care device, corresponding to any one of the following types:
-a dry iron,
a steam iron, as illustrated in figure 1,
a pressurized steam generator (as illustrated in fig. 3, which has a base connected to the iron via a hose line, the hose carrying water, or the hose line carrying steam),
-a hand-held garment steamer (parent garment),
-a vertical garment steamer.
Fig. 6 illustrates a flow chart of a method according to the present invention for controlling at least one light indicator in a garment care device, such as the garment care devices illustrated in fig. 1 and 3. The method comprises the following steps:
-generating 601 an output signal characterizing a movement of the garment care device,
-identifying 602 some movement characteristics in said output signal,
-controlling 603 the switching of the at least one light indicator based on the movement characteristics.
Preferably, the step of identifying 602 comprises:
-identifying the amount of linear displacement of the garment care device along a given direction (D), or
-identifying that the garment care device is not moving, or
-identifying that the garment care device is moving, or is
-identifying a speed of displacement of the garment care device along a given direction (D).
In additional examples, the control unit 104 may be adapted to:
a) identifying in the output signal some movement characteristics that reflect the garment care device not moving, an
b) Controlling the switching of the at least one light indicator 103, 303 according to a given light pattern.
A given light pattern may correspond to:
-a given number of said at least one light indicator being switched, or
-a lamp brightness pattern.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical approaches of the present invention may be modified or equivalently substituted without departing from the scope of the present invention as defined by the claims. In the claims, the term "comprising" does not exclude other elements or steps, and the indefinite article "a" or "an" does not exclude a plurality. Any reference signs in the claims shall not be construed as limiting the scope.
