Definitions
- the invention relates to a system according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a dry shaving apparatus according to the preamble of patent claim 7.
- Such systems can be designed for various possible applications; For example, electric hair clippers, electric toothbrushes or electric household appliances can work together as small electrical appliances with an additional device for the purpose of charging, cleaning and / or diagnosis.
- a cleaning and loading device for a dry shaver is known. This is used to clean the shaving head and the electrical charge of the electrical storage cells arranged in the dry shaver.
- the dry shaver with its shaving head is inserted into a receiving part, which is then filled with a cleaning liquid.
- the cleaning liquid loosens hair residues and deposits adhering to the shaving head, which are then returned to a liquid container together with the cleaning liquid.
- the dry shaver is also used temporarily to increase the cleaning effect. For this purpose it is electrically connected to the cleaning device. This connection not only transmits electrical energy for operating and, if necessary, charging the electrical storage cells, but information and control signals can also be exchanged between the two devices.
- the dry shaver is contacted with the cleaning device via the device socket of the dry shaver, which is connected to the electrical connections in the cleaning device.
- the appliance socket is arranged at the end of the housing of the dry shaver opposite the shaving head; it is also used to connect a power cord.
- the electrical connections of the cleaning device are arranged in the upper end of a contact dome, where they can be moved by means of a button in the direction of the device socket of the dry shaver. With its contacting, the electrical connections are held in this position by locking hooks; the dry shaver is then electrically connected to the cleaning device and mechanically locked.
- Small electrical devices with a separate charging station have the disadvantage that they do not allow mains operation, so that when the battery is discharged, use must be dispensed with until the charging process is complete.
- Another disadvantage is that on longer journeys the mostly large-volume and heavy charger must always be carried along in order to ensure the operation or the electrical energy supply of the small device.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of improving a system described at the outset in such a way that, on the one hand, it can be produced with significantly less effort and, on the other hand, it allows extremely simple and at the same time comfortable use.
- use of the small electrical device should also be made possible independently of the additional device.
- the additional electrical coupling means is advantageously arranged separately from the first coupling means so that one of the two coupling means can be positioned optimally for docking to the additional device and the other coupling means can be positioned optimally for the best possible use of the small electrical device in network operation.
- a particularly convenient, safe and user-friendly type of docking can be implemented if automatic electrical or electromagnetic contacting takes place when the small electrical device is positioned in the receiving device of the additional device.
- a simple contact-making option associated with a high degree of efficiency for both battery-operated and mains-operated devices can be implemented if the additional coupling means is an electrical plug connection in the form of a device socket.
- the first electrical coupling means can be designed as electrical contact elements, which means very little structural effort. In order to realize comfortable and safe contacting, it is advantageous if the electrical contact elements of at least one of the two devices are designed to be resilient.
- the first coupling means can also be designed as inductive energy and / or signal transmission means.
- One field of application of the invention consists in an embodiment of the small electrical device as a dry shaver with a shaving head and the additional device as a cleaning and charging device for cleaning the shaving head and for charging the energy storage cell of the dry shaver.
- a dry razor used in such a system is designed in such a way that its first coupling means is arranged near or directly in the area of the shaving head and the additional coupling means is arranged on the end of the housing of the dry shaver opposite the shaving head .
- a dry shaving apparatus in an associated cleaning and loading device is shown in the single figure in a schematic and greatly simplified representation.
- the drawing shows a dry shaver 1 with a shaving head 2, which is inserted upside down - that is, with the shaving head facing downwards - into the receiving device 3 of the cleaning and charging device 4.
- the shaving head 2 can be cleaned in a manner known per se by means of a cleaning fluid.
- the cleaning and loading device 4 comprises a liquid container and corresponding means for transporting liquid.
- the cleaning and charging device 4 is also used to charge the electrical storage cells of the dry shaver 1, if it is a battery-operated device. Another function of the cleaning and charging device 4 is that of storing the dry shaving apparatus 1, so it also serves as a device holder that can optionally be attached to a wall.
- the receiving device 3 is trough-shaped, the rear wall 5 being slightly higher than the front wall 6.
- the rear wall 5 is also used to plant the dry shaver 1 shown in the side view.
- the cleaning and charger 4 has an electrical connection designed as a device socket 7, through which it can be supplied with electrical voltage from the mains.
- the electrical contact between the dry shaver 1 and the cleaning and charging device 4 takes place via two contact buttons 8, which are arranged in the rear wall 5 of the cleaning and charging device 4 and two corresponding contact elements 9, which are in one of the broad sides, i.e. the front - Or the back of the dry shaver 1 are integrated. Both the contact buttons 8 and the contact elements 9 are convex.
- the contact buttons 8 are elastically biased in the wall by means of the compression spring 10 in the direction of the dry shaver 1 and are thus resiliently mounted.
- Each contact button 8 has a circumferential collar 11 which secures it against falling out. If a dry shaver is not used in the receiving direction 3, this collar 11 rests against the wall 5, loaded by the compression spring 10.
- control signals and information between the dry shaver and the cleaning and charging device are transmitted via this electrical contact point, for example information on the device type, the state of soiling and the frequency and duration of use as well as signals for controlling the cleaning process can be transmitted.
- the electrical contact is also used to transfer energy for charging electrical storage cells that are integrated in the dry shaver 1, provided that it is intended for battery operation.
- the dry shaver 1 can be inserted very easily and conveniently into the cleaning and charging device 4.
- the cleaning and charging device can therefore also be designed in a very compact design.
- the electrical contact is made automatically after it has been placed in the receiving device 3 and the dry shaving apparatus 1 leaned against the rear wall 5.
- the dry shaver is provided at its end 12 opposite the shaving head 2 with a device socket 13 through which it can electrical contact can be made with a power cord.
- This device socket 13 preferably corresponds to the electrical connection 7 of the cleaning and charging device 4, so that one and the same power cord can be used both for operating the cleaning and charging device 4 and for operating the dry shaver 1 itself.
- an electrical coupling between the dry shaver 1 and the cleaning and charging device can also be used 4 take place via inductive means, so that then both in the dry shaver 1 and in the cleaning and charging device 4, coil arrangements known per se are provided.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein System nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 und einen Trockenrasierapparat nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 7.The invention relates to a system according to the preamble of
Derartige Systeme können für diverse Anwendungsmöglichkeiten ausgebildet sein; beispielsweise können elektrische Haarschneidegeräte, elektrische Zahnbürsten oder elektrische Haushaltsgeräte als Elektrokleingeräte mit einem Zusatzgerät zum Zwecke der Ladung, Reinigung und/oder der Diagnose zusammenarbeiten.Such systems can be designed for various possible applications; For example, electric hair clippers, electric toothbrushes or electric household appliances can work together as small electrical appliances with an additional device for the purpose of charging, cleaning and / or diagnosis.
Aus der
Die Kontaktierung des Trockenrasierers mit der Reinigungsvorrichtung erfolgt bei dem bekannten System über die Gerätesteckdose des Trockenrasierers, die mit den elektrischen Anschlüssen in der Reinigungsvorrichtung verbunden werden. Die Gerätesteckdose ist an dem dem Scherkopf gegenüberliegenden Ende des Gehäuses des Trockenrasierapparates angeordnet; sie dient aucht dem Anschluß eines Netzkabels. Die elektrischen Anschlüsse der Reinigungsvorrichtung sind im oberen Ende eines Kontaktdoms angeordnet, wo sie mittels eines Tasters in Richtung auf die Gerätesteckdose des Trockenrasierers bewegbar sind. Mit dessen Kontaktierung werden die elektrischen Anschlüsse von Rasthaken in dieser Position gehalten; der Trockenrasierapparat ist dann mit der Reinigungsvorrichtung elektrisch verbunden und mechanisch verriegelt. Dabei ist es nachteilig, daß der Aufbau der Reinigungsvorrichtung bzw. des Kontaktdomes sehr komplex und aufwendig in der Herstellung und Montage ist. Darüber hinaus kann es durch Lageabweichungen oder Fertigungstoleranzen zu Steck- oder Klemmproblemen während des Kontaktierens kommen. Dies erschwert dann ein exaktes leichtgängiges und damit komfortables Andocken des Trockenrasierapparates an das Reinigungsgerät mit sicherer elektrischer Kontaktierung.In the known system, the dry shaver is contacted with the cleaning device via the device socket of the dry shaver, which is connected to the electrical connections in the cleaning device. The appliance socket is arranged at the end of the housing of the dry shaver opposite the shaving head; it is also used to connect a power cord. The electrical connections of the cleaning device are arranged in the upper end of a contact dome, where they can be moved by means of a button in the direction of the device socket of the dry shaver. With its contacting, the electrical connections are held in this position by locking hooks; the dry shaver is then electrically connected to the cleaning device and mechanically locked. It is disadvantageous that the construction of the cleaning device or the contact dome is very complex and expensive to manufacture and assemble. In addition, positional deviations or manufacturing tolerances can lead to plugging or clamping problems during contacting. This then makes it more difficult to dock the dry shaving apparatus to the cleaning device with reliable electrical contact, which is easy to move and therefore comfortable.

Darüber hinaus sind auch als Ladevorrichtungen ausgebildete Zusatzgeräte für akkubetriebene Kleingeräte bekannt, die das elektrische Kleingerät entweder direkt galvanisch oder auch induktiv kontaktieren.In addition, additional devices designed as charging devices for small battery-operated devices are known which contact the small electrical device either directly galvanically or inductively.
Elektrische Kleingeräte mit einer separaten Ladestation weisen allerdings den Nachteil auf, daß sie keinen Netzbetrieb zulassen, so daß bei einem entladenen Akku so lange auf die Benutzung verzichtet werden muß, bis der Ladevorgang abgeschlossen ist. Ein weiterer Nachteil besteht darin, daß auf längere Reisen stets das meist großvolumige und auch schwere Ladegerät mitgeführt werden muß, um den Betrieb bzw. die elektrische Energieversorgung des Kleingerätes sicherzustellen.Small electrical devices with a separate charging station, however, have the disadvantage that they do not allow mains operation, so that when the battery is discharged, use must be dispensed with until the charging process is complete. Another disadvantage is that on longer journeys the mostly large-volume and heavy charger must always be carried along in order to ensure the operation or the electrical energy supply of the small device.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein eingangs beschriebenes System derart zu verbessern, daß es zum einen mit deutlich verringertem Aufwand herstellbar ist, und zum anderen eine extrem einfache und gleichzeitig komfortable Benutzung erlaubt. Darüber hinaus soll ein Einsatz des elektrischen Kleingerätes auch unabhängig vom Zusatzgerät ermöglicht werden.The invention is therefore based on the object of improving a system described at the outset in such a way that, on the one hand, it can be produced with significantly less effort and, on the other hand, it allows extremely simple and at the same time comfortable use. In addition, use of the small electrical device should also be made possible independently of the additional device.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale der Patentansprüche 1 und 7 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the characterizing features of
Vorteilhafterweise ist das zusätzliche elektrische Ankoppelmittel örtlich getrennt vom ersten Ankoppelmittel angeordnet, so daß eines der beiden Ankoppelmittel optimal für ein Andocken an das Zusatzgerät und das andere Ankoppelmittel für eine bestmögliche Benutzung des elektrischen Kleingerätes im Netzbetrieb positioniert werden kann.The additional electrical coupling means is advantageously arranged separately from the first coupling means so that one of the two coupling means can be positioned optimally for docking to the additional device and the other coupling means can be positioned optimally for the best possible use of the small electrical device in network operation.
Eine besonders komfortable, sichere und benutzerfreundliche Art des Andockens läßt sich realisieren, wenn beim Positionieren des elektrischen Kleingerätes in die Aufnahmevorrichtung des Zusatzgerätes eine automatische elektrische oder elektromagnetische Kontaktierung erfolgt.A particularly convenient, safe and user-friendly type of docking can be implemented if automatic electrical or electromagnetic contacting takes place when the small electrical device is positioned in the receiving device of the additional device.
Eine einfache und mit einem hohen Wirkungsgrad verbundene Kontaktierungsmöglichkeit sowohl für akku- als auch für netzbetriebene Geräte läßt sich dann realisieren, wenn das zusätzliche Ankoppelmittel eine elektrische Steckerverbindung in Form einer Gerätesteckdose ist.A simple contact-making option associated with a high degree of efficiency for both battery-operated and mains-operated devices can be implemented if the additional coupling means is an electrical plug connection in the form of a device socket.
Die ersten elektrischen Ankoppelmittel können als elektrische Kontaktelemente ausgebildet sein, was einen sehr geringen baulichen Aufwand bedeutet. Um dabei eine komfortable und auch sichere Kontaktierung zu realisieren, ist es von Vorteil, wenn die elektrischen Kontaktelemente mindestens eines der beiden Geräte federnd ausgebildet sind.The first electrical coupling means can be designed as electrical contact elements, which means very little structural effort. In order to realize comfortable and safe contacting, it is advantageous if the electrical contact elements of at least one of the two devices are designed to be resilient.
Alternativ können die ersten Ankoppelmittel auch als induktive Energie- und/oder Signalübertragungsmittel ausgebildet sein.Alternatively, the first coupling means can also be designed as inductive energy and / or signal transmission means.
Ein Anwendungsgebiet der Erfindung besteht in einer Ausführung des elektrischen Kleingerätes als Trockenrasierer mit einem Scherkopf und des Zusatzgerätes als Reinigungs- und Ladegerät zum Reinigen des Scherkopfes und zum Laden der Energiespeicherzelle des Trockenrasierers.One field of application of the invention consists in an embodiment of the small electrical device as a dry shaver with a shaving head and the additional device as a cleaning and charging device for cleaning the shaving head and for charging the energy storage cell of the dry shaver.
Dabei ist es von besonderem Vorteil, wenn ein Trockenrasierer, der in einem solchen System Verwendung findet, derart ausgestaltet ist, daß dessen erste Ankoppelmittel nahebei oder unmittelbar im Bereich des Scherkopfes und das zusätzliche Ankoppelmittel an dem dem Scherkopf gegenüberliegenden Ende des Gehäuses des Trockenrasierers angeordnet ist.It is particularly advantageous if a dry razor used in such a system is designed in such a way that its first coupling means is arranged near or directly in the area of the shaving head and the additional coupling means is arranged on the end of the housing of the dry shaver opposite the shaving head .
Weitere Ziel, Merkmale, Vorteile und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten der vorliegenden Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachstehenden Beschreibung der Ausführungsbeispiele.Further aim, features, advantages and possible applications of the present invention emerge from the following description of the exemplary embodiments.
Hierzu ist in der einzigen Figur in schematischer und stark vereinfachter Darstellung ein Trockenrasierapparat in einer zugehörigen Reinigungs- und Ladevorrichtung dargestellt.For this purpose, a dry shaving apparatus in an associated cleaning and loading device is shown in the single figure in a schematic and greatly simplified representation.
Die Zeichnung zeigt einen Trockenrasierapparat 1 mit einem Scherkopf 2, der kopfüber - also mit dem Scherkopf nach unten - in die Aufnahmevorrichtung 3 des Reinigungs- und Ladegerätes 4 eingesetzt ist. Innerhalb der Aufnahmevorrichtung kann der Scherkopf 2 in an sich bekannter Weise mittels einer Reinigungsflüssigkeit gereinigt werden. Hierzu umfaßt das Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4 einen Flüssigkeitsbehälter und entsprechende Mittel für den Flüssigkeitstransport. Diese Mittel sowie die zugehörigen Antriebe und deren elektrische Versorgung sind der Übersichtlichkeit wegen zeichnerisch nicht dargestellt. Auch eine ggf. vorgesehene Vorrichtung zum Trocknen des Scherkopfes ist in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt.The drawing shows a
Das Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4 dient darüber hinaus auch dem Aufladen der elektrischen Speicherzellen des Trockenrasierapparates 1, falls es sich um ein Akku betriebenes Gerät handelt. Eine weitere Funktion des Reinigungs- und Ladegerätes 4 ist die des Aufbewahrens des Trockenrasierapparates 1, er dient also auch als Gerätehalter, der optional an einer Wand befestigt werden kann.The cleaning and charging device 4 is also used to charge the electrical storage cells of the
Die Aufnahmevorrichtung 3 ist wannenförmig ausgebildet, wobei die rückwärtige Wand 5 etwas höher ausgebildet ist als die Vorderwand 6. Die rückwärtige Wand 5 dient auch der Anlage des in der Seitenansicht dargstellten Trockenrasierapparates 1. Das Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4 besitzt einen als Gerätesteckdose ausgebildeten elektrischen Anschluß 7, über den es mit elektrischer Spannung aus dem Stromnetz versorgt werden kann. Die elektrische Kontaktierung zwischen dem Trockenrasierapparat 1 und dem Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4 erfolgt über zwei Kontaktknöpfe 8, welche in der rückwärtigen Wand 5 des Reinigungs- und Ladegerätes 4 angeordnet sind und zwei korrespondierende Kontaktelemente 9, die in einer der breiten Seiten, also der Vorder- oder Rückseite, des Trockenrasierapparates 1 integriert sind. Sowohl die Kontaktknöpfe 8 als auch die Kontaktelemente 9 sind ballig ausgeführt. Dadurch vereinfacht sich das Einsetzen des Trockenrasierapparates 1 in das Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4, die Gefahr eines Verhakens wird dadurch vermieden. Die Kontaktknöpfe 8 sind in der Wand mittels der Druckfeder 10 in Richtung auf den Trockenrasierapparat 1 elastisch vorgespannt und somit federnd gelagert. Jeder Kontaktknopf 8 weist einen umlaufenden Kragen 11 auf, der ihn gegen ein Herausfallen sichert. Ist kein Trockenrasierapparat die Aufnahmerichtung 3 eingesetzt, so liegt dieser Kragen 11 belastet durch die Druckfeder 10 an der Wand 5 an. Beim Einsetzen des Trockenrasierapparates 1 wird mit der Beaufschlagung durch das Kontaktelement 9 der jeweils zugeordnete Kontaktknopf 8 etwas in die Wand 5 hineingedrückt, durch die elastische Vorspannung ist eine korrekte elektrische Kontaktierung stets sichergestellt.The
Über diese elektrische Kontaktstelle werden zum einen Steuersignale sowie Informationen zwischen dem Trockenrasierapparat und dem Reinigungs- und Ladegerät übermittelt, beispielsweise können Informationen über den Gerätetyp, den Verschmutzungszustand und die Häufigkeit und Dauer der Benutzung sowie auch Signale zum Steuern des Reinigungsprozesses übermittelt werden. Darüber hinaus dient die elektrische Kontaktierung auch der Energieübertragung zum Laden von elektrischen Speicherzellen, die im Trockenrasierapparat 1 integriert sind, sofern dieser für den Akkubetrieb vorgesehen ist.On the one hand, control signals and information between the dry shaver and the cleaning and charging device are transmitted via this electrical contact point, for example information on the device type, the state of soiling and the frequency and duration of use as well as signals for controlling the cleaning process can be transmitted. In addition, the electrical contact is also used to transfer energy for charging electrical storage cells that are integrated in the
Durch die offene, wannenförmige Ausführung der Aufnahmevorrichtung 3, und das Fehlen jeglicher Hindernisse, wie beispielsweise eines Kontaktierungsarmes, läßt sich der Trockenrasierapparat 1 sehr einfach und komfortabel in das Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4 einsetzen. Das Reinigungs- und Ladegerät läßt sich daher auch in sehr kompakter Bauform ausbilden. Die elektrische Kontaktierung erfolgt automatisch nach der Ablage in der Aufnahmevorrichtung 3 und dem Anlehnen des Trockenrasierapparates 1 an die rückwärtige Wand 5.Due to the open, tub-shaped design of the
Um auch unabhängig vom Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 3 dem Trockenrasierapparat 1 betreiben (beispielsweise wenn es sich um ein reines Netzgerät handelt) oder auch Laden zu können, ist der Trockenrasierapparat an seinem dem Scherkopf 2 gegenüberliegenden Ende 12 mit einer Gerätesteckdose 13 versehen, über die er mit einem Netzkabel elektrisch kontaktiert werden kann. Vorzugsweise entspricht diese Gerätesteckdose 13 dem elektrischen Anschluß 7 des Reinigungs- und Ladegerätes 4, so daß ein und dasselbe Netzkabel sowohl zum Betrieb des Reinigungs- und Ladegerätes 4, als auch für den Betrieb des Trockenrasierapparates 1 selbst verwendet werden kann.In order to be able to operate the
Selbstverständlich kann gemäß einer zeichnerisch nicht dargestellten Ausführung statt der galvanischen Kontaktelemente 9 und den Kontaktknöpfen 8 auch eine elektrische Ankoppelung zwischen dem Trockenrasierapparat 1 und dem Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4 über induktive Mittel erfolgen, so daß dann sowohl im Trockenrasierapparat 1 als auch im Reinigungs- und Ladegerät 4 jeweils an sich bekannte Spulenanordnungen vorgesehen sind.Of course, according to an embodiment not shown in the drawing, instead of the galvanic contact elements 9 and the contact buttons 8, an electrical coupling between the
