  • Patent number: 10660467
    Abstract: A method for monitoring the safe use of a cooker uses a monitoring device in which set values for safety limits based on temperature and humidity or gas content measurements are set for sounding an alarm or cutting off the electricity or gas supply to the cooker. The temperature and humidity and/or gas content are measured above the cooker. The set safety limit values for the temperature and the humidity and/or gas content and/or their rates of change are set and the presence of the user is monitored on the basis of the use of the cooker and/or by a sensor which detects the presence of a person and/or by direct control feedback given by the user. The monitoring device is taught user-specific safety limit values automatically and intuitively on the basis of the use of the cooker, and are automatically changed or adjusted on the basis of the teaching.

  • Patent number: 10347112
    Abstract: A supervision and control method for preventing poor air quality and fire uses an indicator unit mounted to the ceiling or on a wall and provided with an air quality sensor, and one or more control and supervision units as additional devices or as integrated or programmatic characteristics connected to home appliances or electrical devices. The air quality information measured by the air quality sensor is sent from the indicator unit to the control and supervision unit, which monitors, ventilates, and controls the operation and/or energy supply of home appliances or electrical devices on the basis of air quality information. The effect of control on air quality is monitored by the air quality sensor and an alarm is issued and/or the supply of electricity to predetermined home appliances and/or electrical devices is cut off if, regardless of control, a preset alarm limit is exceeded, when the presence of a user is not detected.

  • Patent number: 9196101
    Abstract: An automated control system for multi-level authority to operate electronic and electrical equipment, the system including one or more wireless or wired controlled devices and one or more separate communicator and/or transmitter devices for an operation authorizing code and/or separate user identifiers for communicating the codes to a customer or a device. In the process of granting authorities to operate, the system utilizes, as positional data for a user or a device, the base station information of a mobile phone network and/or at close range a wired or wireless communication link, such as a bluetooth communication link.

  • Publication number: 20090312883
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for controlling a power (6), water (18) or gas (17) supply in emergency and energy saving situations. The system comprises one or more detectors (2, 8, 14, 15, 16) for indicating various service conditions of a monitored space, a control unit (1) as well as a mains-connected fault (7) or overload protector (8) or other control relay for controlling the operating power or water or gas (6, 18, 17) for appliances. The sound of one or more ambient condition monitoring detectors (14, 15, 16) or the presence of persons occupying the space is identified by the control unit's (1) sound defector (2, 3) connected with a monitored or controlled space and on the basis of the alarm sound or the presence of occupants the mains' grounding wire (GND) and neutral wire (N) or the mains' neutral wire (N) and phase lead (L) are actuated to connect with each other by means of a semiconductor switch (4).
