  • Operating module and methods for dynamic adapatation of a user interface for a machine
    Patent number: 10976909
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an operating module for dynamically creating the user interface on the operating module for controlling and operating a machine of the food industry, in particular the beverage industry. The operating module comprises a plurality of operating elements having attributes, which can assume the value of a parameter and can be activated or deactivated depending on the user. By means of an operating module context, operating elements having certain attributes and values can be selected in order to be displayed on the operating module. The invention further relates to a method for dynamically creating and displaying an operating interface for operating a machine of the food industry.

  • Data exchange between a machine and an external control module in the beverage industry
    Patent number: 10534357
    Abstract: The application relates to a device for a machine in the beverage industry, comprising an HMI for user input of control commands for the machine. The device is configured to be connectable to an external control module via a wireless communication connection. The device can then exchange an HMI data record with the external control module by use of this wireless connection. The device can receive at least one HMI data record from the external control module, said data record comprising data or parameters for configuring the HMI. Furthermore, at least one HMI data set can be transferred from the HMI to the external control module and comprise data or parameters for evaluation or storage by the external control module. The device can be a separate module of the machine and can accordingly be connected to the HMI, communicate with the HMI, or at least control the HMI.
