MANIPULATOR AND HOME APPLIANCE INCLUDING MANIPULATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240288173 titled 'MANIPULATOR AND HOME APPLIANCE INCLUDING MANIPULATOR

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a home appliance with a knob that generates a device operating signal related to a heat source, and a separate knob setting switch that generates a knob operating signal when manipulated. The device operating signal is generated when the knob is turned while the knob operating signal is active.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Home appliance with a knob for heat source operation signal and a separate knob setting switch for generating a knob operating signal.
  • Knob operating signal is generated independently of the heat source operation signal.
  • Turning the knob while the knob operating signal is active generates the device operating signal.

Potential Applications: The technology can be applied in various home appliances such as stoves, ovens, and heaters where separate control signals are required for different functions.

Problems Solved: This technology solves the issue of having a single knob control multiple functions in a home appliance, providing more precise and independent control.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced control and flexibility in operating home appliances.
  • Improved user experience with separate control signals for different functions.
  • Increased efficiency and accuracy in adjusting heat sources.

Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Control System for Home Appliances This technology can be commercialized in the kitchen appliance industry, HVAC systems, and other consumer electronics markets where precise control is essential for optimal performance.

Prior Art: Readers can start searching for prior art related to this technology in the field of home appliance control systems, knob-operated devices, and user interface design for household products.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in home appliance control systems, user interface technologies, and smart home integration for potential synergies with this innovation.

Questions about Home Appliance Control System: 1. What are the potential cost savings associated with implementing this technology in home appliances? 2. How does this innovation compare to existing knob-operated control systems in terms of user experience and efficiency?


Original Abstract Submitted

a home appliance is provided that may include at least one knob that is turned to generate a device operating signal related to an operation of at least one heat source, and a knob setting switch configured to manipulated separately from the at least one knob to generate a knob operating signal. the knob may be turned while the knob operating signal is generated to generate the device operating signal.
