  • Publication number: 20240093534
    Abstract: A door-locking module for a door of a household appliance includes a housing; a printed circuit board (PCB), received within the housing and further includes at least one first actuator switch adapted to open and close a predetermined first circuit of the PCB. A locking pin is configured to move between a locked position, affecting the door into a locked state, and an unlocked position, affecting the door into an unlocked state. An actuator is operably coupled to the locking pin so as to controllably move the locking pin between the unlocked position and the locked position. A locking ring is operably coupled between the actuator and the at least one first actuator switch and includes a trigger member adapted to operably engage with the signal actuator, and at least one cam guide adapted to cooperate with a corresponding cam follower of the locking pin.

  • Patent number: 11378419
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a design for operating an angle sensor. A first sensor signal is output from a first sensor element on the basis of a magnetic field, which is dependent on an angle of rotation of a measurement object, at the location of the first sensor element. A second sensor signal is output from a second sensor element on the basis of the magnetic field that is dependent on the angle of rotation of the measurement object at the location of the second sensor element. During a calibration mode of the angle sensor, in which a rotation of the measurement object is performed, a first offset value of the first sensor signal, a second offset value of the second sensor signal and an amplitude correction value are determined on the basis of signal amplitudes of the first and second sensor signals. The first and second offset values ascertained during the calibration mode and the amplitude correction value are stored for use in an operating mode of the angle sensor.
