摘要： A timer mechanism for an appliance such as a clothes dryer includes a pulser cam and a timer cam. The timer cam has a notch along its perimeter while the pulser cam has a step formed in its perimeter. The cams rotate in opposite directions with a cam follower biased against the cams. A clapper is connected to the cam follower and is adapted to strike a chime if the cam follower is aligned with the notch in the timer cam and the cam follower drops off the step in the pulser cam as the pulser cam rotates past the cam follower. The pulser cam is connected to the timer motor and continuously rotates at a first speed throughout a cycle while the timer cam is connected to the timer motor and the timer dial of the appliance and rotates in the opposite direction at a second slower speed.
摘要翻译：用于诸如干衣机的设备的定时器机构包括脉冲发生器凸轮和定时器凸轮。定时器凸轮沿其周边具有凹口，而脉冲发生器凸轮具有在其周边形成的台阶。凸轮沿相反方向旋转，凸轮从动件偏压凸轮。如果凸轮从动件与定时器凸轮中的凹口对准，并且当脉冲发生器凸轮旋转经过凸轮从动件时，凸轮从动件离开脉冲发生器凸轮中的台阶，则适配器能够撞击凸轮从动件。脉冲发生器凸轮连接到定时器电机，并且在定时器凸轮连接到定时器电动机和器具的定时拨盘并以相反的方向以第二慢的速度旋转时，在整个循环中以第一速度连续旋转。

摘要： A laundry appliance can be selectively operated in either manual or automatic modes of operation. In the automatic mode, a laundering operation is initiated upon receiving a single cycle input parameter from the user, preferably through a LCD touch screen display, while relying on additional operating cycle parameters established by factory preset settings or prior consumer established preferences. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, a consumer need merely select a single cycle parameter and the appliance will start based on temperature and other setting parameters taken from memory. However, even with the automatic start feature activated, the user will still be able to adjust pre-established cycle parameters by changing default values after the cycle has started.
摘要翻译：洗衣机可以选择性地以手动或自动操作模式操作。在自动模式中，在接收来自用户的单周期输入参数时，优选地通过LCD触摸屏显示器，同时依靠由工厂预置设置或先前消费者建立的偏好设置的附加操作周期参数，开始洗涤操作。根据本发明的优选实施例，消费者仅需选择单周期参数，并且器具将基于从存储器获取的温度和其他设置参数开始。然而，即使自动启动功能被激活，用户仍然可以通过在循环开始后更改默认值来调整预先建立的循环参数。

摘要： An agitator assembly for a fabric washer includes an agitator body having an elongated agitator barrel and a plurality of vanes extending radially outwardly from one end of the agitator barrel. An auger tube is telescopically mounted over the agitator barrel and includes a helical flighting on its outer surface. A bearing assembly is located between the outer surface of the agitator barrel and the inner surface of the auger tube, and holds the inner auger tube surface free from contact with the outer agitator barrel while at the same time permitting relative rotational movement between the auger tube and the agitator body. A ratchet clutch assembly is provided for permitting the auger tube to rotate only in one direction with respect to the agitator. The ratchet clutch assembly includes a circular array of ratchet teeth, and a plurality of ball bearings resting upon the ratchet teeth. The ball bearings move vertically in vertical tracks. A flexible friction ring is provided to increase the friction between the auger body and the bearing assembly, such that the auger body oscillates with the agitator body until sufficient resistance provided by larger fabric loads overcomes the internal friction, thereby allowing the auger body to rotate in a ratcheting manner.

摘要： A method and apparatus for operating an automatic cycle of a clothes dryer wherein after initiation of an automatic cycle, a CPU displays the expected time remaining during the current cycle. At various times during the cycle, the expected time remaining is updated by comparing the time required to reach certain moisture levels of the articles contained therein to reference times. The comparison also results in the expected times being updated for future uses of the clothes dryer. Finally, the invention includes a system for updating the amount of time required to reach a desired final temperature during a cooldown sequence.

摘要： An apparatus and method for infinitely variable adjustment of temperature range of a device in multiple selected temperature ranges. The method includes providing a plurality of operational temperature ranges of the device, selection of a desired temperature range, and infinitely variable selection of a specific temperature within a selected range. The apparatus includes a temperature range mechanism limiting operational temperature to first and second temperature ranges, and a control mechanism to select one of the first and second temperature ranges and then infinitely adjusting temperature within the selected range. In the example of a clothes dryer, the invention allows the selection of a higher or lower temperature range for the clothes dryer and, once the range is selected, infinitely variable temperature control within the selected range.

摘要： An appliance lid lock includes a sensing circuit which senses the position of the lid lock relative to the appliance lid. When the appliance lid is in its closed position and the lid lock retentively engages the appliance lid, a controller causes activation of the appliance driver. When the appliance lid is not in its closed position and the lid lock moves beyond its locked position to a third position, a sensing circuit causes the controller to maintain all the appliance drivers in a deactivated state and to return the lid lock to its original unlocked position.

摘要： A microprocessor controlled clothes dryer wherein the posture of a switch in the lint filter system is monitored and a signal to CHECK FILTER is displayed if the switch posture has not changed. The switched is a reed switch mounted stationary on the lint filter assembly and a magnet operator is attached to the removable filter screen. Movement of the filter screen into and out of filtering position in the lint filter assembly of the exhaust duct changes the posture of the magnet operated reed switch. Change of posture of the switch through its cycle impresses a change of voltage on the microprocessor. The microprocessor effects control over the CHECK FILTER signal that is visually illuminated on a VFD tube; such that, if the microprocessor sees the cycling of the switch the CHECK FILTER signal is extinguished.
