    The invention relates to a network for data communication, comprising at least one metering device, in particular a sanitary dispenser, and at least one data communication device, wherein both the at least one metering device and the at least one data communication device has at least one transmitting device for transmitting data and at least one receiving device for receiving data and these transmitting and receiving devices enable bidirectional communication between the at least one metering device and the at least one data communication device.
    Dosing devices are devices for the demand-controlled delivery of products that are consumed in toilets, washrooms, in washing devices and / or in the kitchen area. In connection with the toilet and / or washrooms, the dosing devices are, for example, sanitary dispensers for dispensing soap, towels, toilet paper, fragrances and disinfectants. However, the present invention is not limited to any particular type of metering device.
    In particular, in larger toilets and / or washrooms, efforts are increasingly being made to avoid unnecessary consumption of the products to be dispensed and to keep the maintenance of the dosing device as low as possible. A prerequisite to achieving these two goals is to provide a quick, easy and inexpensive way of communicating with the dosing devices. It is not just about reading data from the dispensers, but also data to the dispensers - e.g. to optimize the delivery parameters - to submit. The invention thus relates to a bidirectional data communication.
    The above-mentioned bidirectional data communication networks comprising at least one dosing device and at least one data communication device are known e.g. known from WO 2005/065509 A1.
    The present invention is based on the finding that it would be advantageous to provide such networks not only in newly set up toilet and / or washrooms, but also to integrate into existing structures, without replacing the already installed dosing with new equipment or to convert complex. This means that the object of the invention is to provide bidirectional data communication e.g. to adapt to the existing circuitry conditions and thereby an easier and more cost-effective compared to the prior art alternative to the construction of a network for data communication, comprising at least one metering device and at least one data communication device to specify.
    This object is achieved by the features of the main claim.
    In general, a code is understood to mean an assignment list for the conversion of characters or terms (generally information) into a different representation or, more mathematically, an assignment rule for the unique mapping of a character set to another, different in connection with the present invention Coding method, such as the biphase marking code (better known by the name "Biphase Mark Code") or a coding according to the "KEELOQ PWM TRANSMISSION" format, wherein it has proved to be advantageous when the at least one of the at least one dosing device Data communication device according to the two-phase marker code and / or the data transmitted from the at least one data communication device to the at least one dosing device according to the "KEELOQ PWM TRANSMISSION" format encoded.
    The two mentioned coding methods are described in detail below in the course of the description of the figures. At this point, the question why it is advantageous if the data transmitted from the at least one dosing device to the at least one data communication device according to the two-phase marking code and / or the data transmitted from the at least one data communication device to the at least one dosing device in accordance with " KEELOQ PWM TRANSMISSION "format are encoded. In the case of the communication direction of the at least one metering device to the at least one
    The reason for this is that a signal coded according to the two-phase tag code is comparatively easily amplified due to its specific symmetry property (the high state corresponds to a signal increase of 50%, the low state of a signal decrease by 50%) can and relatively insensitive to interference, such as the sunlight, lamps or the like is.
    In the case of the communication direction from the at least one data communication device to the at least one metering device, encoding according to the "KEELOQ PWM TRANSMISSION" format is advantageous because a signal coded in this way can be queried comparatively easily, ie, that the technical outlay for the at least one metering device is minimal. This circumstance is particularly advantageous for older device types.
    Advantageously, the data exchanged in the network according to the invention is incorporated in a network protocol which preferably comprises one or more of the following components: start signal, header data, status and / or checksum. This network protocol will also be discussed in detail in the description of the figures.
    In the smallest embodiment, the network according to the invention consists of a metering device and a data communication device. Optionally, it can be extended by the inclusion of a computer, for example in the form of a personal computer, a notebook, a smartphone or a so-called "mobile device". For this purpose, it is expedient if the data communication device comprises at least one interface for data communication with a computer, preferably a USB, a serial, a WLAN, a LAN or a BLUETOOTH interface. * * * * 4 * * · * * * * * * * * * * * * «* *« * * * * *
    Ideally, the data communication device is mobile. In this case, for example, a person who is entrusted anyway with the maintenance of the dosing devices or the cleaning of the toilet and / or laundry, take over in a simple manner also any data communication tasks by carrying the data communication device and carry out the data communication in the proximity of the metering device stops.
    It has further been found to be advantageous if the data communication in the network according to the invention is non-contact, preferably by means of electromagnetic radiation, particularly preferably by means of visible light, i. by means of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between 490 and 790 nm, takes place. The advantage of using visible light lies in the fact that most of the dosing devices installed so far have devices (e.g., for status indication) which operate with visible light anyway and whose functionality is comparatively easy to extend in terms of data communication.
    Advantageously, the data communication takes place with pulsed visible light, wherein the pulse duration is preferably in the microsecond range.
    Further embodiments are characterized in that the at least one data communication device comprises at least one memory device, at least one display device for visualizing data, at least one, preferably visual, status display device, at least one acoustic signaling device, at least one real-time clock device and / or at least one power supply device. These components essentially serve to increase the ease of use for the user and are particularly relevant with regard to the optional feature of the mobility of the data communication device. • ♦
    With regard to the data transmitted in the network according to the invention, it should be noted that this is e.g. can be counter readings, serial and / or identification numbers, names, error messages, production data and / or information about the voltage state of at least one battery.
    Further details and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the

    Fig. 1 shows a schematic overview of the preferred embodiment of the network 1 for data communication. The network 1 comprises (viewed from left to right) a metering device 2, which is a device for dispensing soap, towel, toilet paper, perfume or disinfectant, a data communication device 3 which is designed to be mobile and a computer 9, which may be a PC, a notebook, a smartphone or a so-called "mobile device". is. Between the dosing device 2 and the data communication device 3 data can be transmitted in both directions of communication, i. that bidirectional data communication is possible. In this case, this data communication takes place without contact, by means of electromagnetic radiation, more precisely by means of visible light L. In the drawing, this is symbolized by means of visible light L bidirectional data communication by arrows and schematically indicated wavefronts. Typically, the distance A for this data communication between the dosing device 2 and the data communication device 3 is a few centimeters. Technically, the data communication is made possible by the fact that both the dosing device 2 and the data communication device 3 each have a transmitting device 4 or 5 for transmitting data and a receiving device 6 or 7 for receiving data, the essential components or the mode of operation of these Transmitting or receiving devices 4, 5, 6 and 7 are explained in detail with reference to the following figures. The data communication device 3 and the computer 9 can also exchange bidirectional data. For this purpose, the data communication device 3 has an interface 8 usually used for this purpose by a person skilled in the art, such as e.g. a USB, serial, Wi-Fi, LAN, or BLUETOOTH interface. In general, it should be noted that the data stored in the network 1 between the dosing device 2 and the data communication device 3 or between the
    Data communication device 3 and the computer 9, e.g. Counter readings, serial and / or identification numbers, names, error messages, production data and / or information about the voltage state of batteries.
    FIG. 2 schematically shows the components of the dosing device 2 and the data communication device 3 which are essential in connection with the invention. The receiving devices 6 and 7 each comprise a receiving component PT and PD for converting visible light L into electrical energy, and the transmitting devices 4 and 5 comprise transmitting components LED1, LED2, LED3a and LED3b for converting electrical energy into visible light L.
    In the case of the dosing device 2, the receiving component is a phototransistor PT, in the case of the data communication device 3 is a photodiode PD. The principle of operation of a photodiode PD or a phototransistor PT is the same in principle, except that the phototransistor PT already has an integrated amplifier circuit for amplifying the measurement signal. This means that the signal of the photodiode PD usually has to be amplified. Therefore, the data communication device 3 consequently has a corresponding amplifier device 10. The phototransistor PT is designed so that its sensitivity to infrared radiation is greatest, but also visible light L can convert into electrical energy. In contrast, the photodiode PD has a narrowband sensitivity and essentially converts only visible light L into electrical energy.
    The transmitting components LED1, LED2, LED3a and LED3b, which are components of the transmitting devices 4 and 5, are light-emitting diodes which emit visible light L. It should be noted that in the preferred embodiment both the transmitting device 4 of the metering device 2 and the transmitting device 5 of the data communication device 3 each comprise two light-emitting diodes LED1 and LED2 or LED3a and LED3b. In the case of the metering device 2, the reason for this is that the transmitting device 4 fulfills a dual function. In addition to sending data, it also serves as a status indicator. By means of this status indication, e.g. are displayed, if the donated Good the metering device 2 must be refilled or a battery needs to be renewed. In such cases, the status indicator lights red. If there are no faults and the dosing device 2 is ready for operation at any time, the status indicator lights up green. In the simplest case, this two-color status display can be realized technically in that the transmitting device 4 comprises both a red LED LED1 and a green LED2 LED. Alternatively, it may of course also comprise a two-color LED, in the case of the data communication device 3, the reason why the transmitter 5 comprises two light-emitting diodes LED3a and LED3b (which are two identical light emitting diodes) is that in this way increase the signal strength for the transmission of data from the data communication device 3 to the dosing device 2.
    The receiving components PT and PD for converting visible light L into electrical energy or the transmitting components LED1, LED2, LED3a and LED3b for converting electrical energy into visible light L are electrically both in the case of the metering device 2 and in the case of the data communication device 3 a central processor pC1 or pC2, more specifically connected to a microcontroller. This combination of the receiving or transmitting components with the microcontroller pC1 and pC2 represent the transmitting and receiving devices 4, 5, 6 and 7, which should be indicated in the drawing with the help of four smaller curly brackets. The task of the two microcontrollers pC1 and pC2 is to prepare or evaluate the data packets intended for the communication. Depending on the type of microcontroller pC1 and pC2, different operating programs for data processing are stored either directly on the microcontrollers or in memory devices 22 and 11 connected to the microcontrollers.
    It should also be noted that not only the transmitting device 4 of the metering device 2 fulfills a multiple function, but also the receiving device 6 of the metering device 2 serves several purposes: it functions not only as a device for receiving data transmitted by means of electromagnetic radiation but also as a brightness measuring device 6 '. for measuring the brightness of the ambient light. In the case of a dispensing device 2 for dispensing soap or a disinfectant, this device is also used as a detection device 6 " for detecting at least one object located in the vicinity of the metering device 2, e.g. for detecting the hand of a m · 9
    People used. This multiple functions of the transmitting or receiving device 4 or 6 of the metering device 2 will be explained in detail with reference to Figures 3 and 4.
    In addition to the components already mentioned (reception component PD, transmission components LED3a and LED3b, microcontroller μ02 and memory device 11), the data communication device 3 further comprises a display device 12 for visualizing data, a visual status display device 13, an acoustic signaling device 14 (buzzer), a real time clock device 15 as well as a power supply device 16, which comprises a plurality of batteries, as well as the already addressed in connection with FIG. 1 interface 8 for data communication with a computer 9. The metering device 2 also includes several components, such as a motor, sensors, adjustment elements that are commonly used in the prior art to allow the delivery of a sanitary product. These components, which are summarized in the drawing by the reference symbol P, will not be discussed in more detail here, since they do not serve the understanding of the present invention and are already known to a person skilled in the art.
    The basic electronic structure of the receiving device 6, the brightness measuring device 6 'and the detection device 6 "of the metering device will be explained below with reference to FIG. Shown are only the essential electronic components required for basic understanding.
    The central component is a phototransistor PT, which converts visible light and infrared radiation into an analogue electrical signal and forwards this signal to a microcontroller pC1 for further processing. The phototransistor PT together with the resistor R2 forms a voltage divider, wherein the resistor R2 is connected to the positive voltage supply V + and the emitter of the phototransistor PT to pin 12 of the microcontroller pC1. When using the phototransistor PT, this pin is switched to ground GND. Because the pin is not permanently connected to ground GND, it is possible to disable the circuit in periods when it is not needed, thus saving energy. If (in the operating state) light or infrared radiation on the phototransistor PT, the conductivity increases through the phototransistor, whereby the voltage at the tap of the voltage divider, which is connected to pin 4 of the microcontroller pC1, decreases. Conversely, the voltage increases when the intensity of the light or infrared radiation decreases. It is therefore an inverting behavior.
    If this circuit is now used as a receiving device 6 for receiving data transmitted by means of electromagnetic radiation, the analog signal of the phototransistor PT is read in at pin 4 of the microcontroller pC1 and sampled in a specific time interval. In this case, sudden increases (positive and negative edges) of this analog value are detected and the time intervals between these increases are converted into a bit pattern (data).
    If the described circuit is used as a brightness measuring device 6 'for measuring the brightness of the ambient light, the signal of the phototransistor PT at pin 4 of the microcontroller pC1 is in turn read in and processed. A special feature is that an average value is determined over several measurements in order to filter out possible disturbances. The brightness value of the ambient light detected in this way can subsequently be used, e.g. to regulate the brightness of the already mentioned in connection with FIG. 2 status display of the metering device. This brightness control of the status display is e.g. In hospital rooms, it is important to avoid disturbing a patient who is in the hospital room at night by flashing the status indicator.
    As stated, the phototransistor PT can finally also be part of a detection device 6 " for detecting at least one object, e.g. a human hand. For the technical realization of this detection device 6 ", the electronic circuit further comprises a light emitting diode LED4 which emits infrared radiation. An object in the vicinity of the metering device can then be detected as follows: 1. The brightness of the ambient light is measured (in the manner described above). 2. The infrared LED4 is switched on. 3. A new measurement of the brightness of the ambient light is performed. 4. The infrared LED4 is switched off again. 5. The two measured values are compared with each other.
    If there is now an object in the vicinity of the metering device or in the vicinity of the phototransistor PT, the two measured values deviate from one another, since part of the infrared radiation is reflected back at the object. This deviation of the measured values is greater, the smaller the distance of the object to the phototransistor PT. If the difference of the measured values exceeds a predetermined limit value, then the dosing device "knows" that an object is in its vicinity. This information can subsequently be used to activate the delivery mode.
    But what determines whether the phototransistor PT is used to receive data, to measure the brightness of the ambient light, or to detect an object For this purpose, several comments are made: Since the first step for detecting an object anyway is to measure the brightness of the ambient light, it is possible to simultaneously operate the brightness measuring device 6 'and the detection device 6 "in the operating state of the dosing device. Activation of the receiving device 6 is achieved in a preferred embodiment in that a cover 17 of the metering device is opened and / or at least one command transmitter 18, preferably a button, which is located on the metering device is actuated. The cover 17 and the button 18 can be seen in Fig. 8, which will be described below.
    A further preferred embodiment is characterized in that the receiving device 6, the brightness measuring device 6 'and the detection device 6 "are automatically active at predetermined time intervals in the operating state of the metering device and do not have to be activated by operating a mechanical component of the metering device.
    How such a timing of the status display of the metering device, the data communication between the metering device and the data communication device, the measurement of the brightness of the ambient light and the detection of an object that is located in the vicinity of the metering may look like, is shown schematically in FIG shown. The time axis extending from left to right is provided with the reference symbol t. Events that are exactly superimposed in the drawing take place simultaneously. As a guide dashed lines are shown.
    As already mentioned, the two light-emitting diodes LED1 and LED2 arranged on the dosing device serve to indicate the status of the dosing device in the colors red and green. For this purpose, one of the two light-emitting diodes LED1 or LED2 (depending on whether there is a malfunction) is switched on at periodic intervals ΔΤ1 for a period of time ΔΤ4. The time interval ΔΤ1 is in the second, the time interval ΔΤ4 in the millisecond range, so that the status of the metering device for a person who is in its vicinity, can be seen by a red or green flashing.
    It has also been stated that the two LEDs LED1 and LED2 are also used, in addition to the status display, to send data D1 to a data communication device. This is achieved by "hiding" the data D1 in the form of a rapid succession of comparatively short light pulses in the status indication flashing of the two light-emitting diodes LED1 and LED2. The pulse duration of the data bits is in the microsecond range, which means that the data bits are not recognizable to the human eye due to its inertia. The data D1 is preferably sent at the end of a status light signal (in the time window ΔΤ7). If a ready-to-use data communication device is located in the vicinity of the metering device, then the photodiode PD or the amplifier circuit in electrical contact with it is triggered by a start signal preceding the actual data Dt
    Data communication device placed in standby and the data reception of the data D1 in the time window ΔΤ7 allows.
    Preferably, in the time window ΔΤ8, ie immediately after the receipt of the data D1 from the dosing device, data D2 is sent in the reverse direction with the aid of the light emitting diodes LED3a and LED3b from the data communication device to the dosing device. This immediate succession of the "data sending" and "receiving data" events has the advantage that the phototransistor PT of the metering device is automatically placed ready to receive the data D2 immediately after the end of the status light signal, and not specifically by a specific event must be activated.
    Relative to these three events (display the status of the dosing device, send data D1 and receive data D2), the measurement of the brightness of the ambient light (in the time window ΔΤ5) or the detection of an object (in the time window ΔΤ6) takes place at specific time intervals ΔΤ2 and ΔΤ3 the manner described in connection with FIG. 3 instead.
    A special feature is that the data D1 and D2 transmitted in the two directions of communication are coded differently. In general, a code is understood to mean a rule for converting data for its transmission. In connection with the present invention, different coding methods are available, wherein the data D1 transferred from the metering device to the at least one data communication device preferably in accordance with the so-called two-phase marking code C1 and the data D2 transferred from the data communication device to the metering device preferably according to the "KEELOQ PWM TRANSMISSION" Format C2 are encoded. The two-phase marking code C1 is explained schematically with reference to FIG. 5a and the "KEELOQ PWM TRANSMISSION" format C2 with reference to FIG. 5b:
    The two-phase mark code C1 (better known as the "Biphase Mark Code") is comparable to the Manchester differential code, but differs in a different phase of the encoded data stream: it is an additional one-half skew of the uncoded data signal Bit cell time necessary to convert the Biphase Mark code into the Manchester differential code. For each bit of data, two states are transmitted. At the beginning of a bit, in contrast to the Manchester code, a change of state is always made. After that the coding differs as follows: At a one the state changes in the middle of the bit and at a zero the state remains the same until the end of the bit. In the upper line of Fig. 5a, the clock signal C1a is shown schematically. The middle row shows an exemplary sequence of data C1b to be transmitted, and the bottom row shows the coded data signal C1c.
    FIG. 5b serves to illustrate the "KEELOQ PWM TRANSMISSION" format C2. One bit in this case consists of three signal units E. The first third of the signal is always "high", the third third is always "low", only the difference in the second third of the signal indicates whether it is a zero bit or a one-bit.
    As already indicated above, the data D1 and D2 are not transmitted in isolation, but are integrated into a predetermined network protocol N whose main components are shown schematically in FIG. First, a start signal N1 is transmitted, with the aid of which - in the case of the data transmission from the metering device to the data communication device - the photodiode or the amplifier circuit of the data communication device is put into operational readiness. This targeted activation of the amplifier circuit serves to reduce the power consumption of the data communication device. Following the start signal N1, some important information N2, designated by the term "header data", is transmitted. This is followed by status bytes N3, the actual data D1 and D2 and a checksum N4. In principle, these components N1, N2, N3 and N4 of the network protocol N are known to a person skilled in the field of information technology or telecommunications, and therefore need not be explained in more detail. It should be noted that this network protocol N is applied in a similar form for both directions of communication.
    FIG. 7 shows a section of a schematic cross-sectional representation of the dosing device 2 relevant to understanding the invention, together with a schematic top view of the data communication device 3. The central element for the technical realization of the data communication, the status display, the brightness measuring device and the detection device is a circuit board 20, on which essentially the electronic circuit shown in FIG. 3 and the two light-emitting diodes LED1 and LED2 are arranged. This board 20 is located inside the metering device 2, which is covered by the cover 17 to the outside. Below the two light-emitting diodes LED1 and LED2, which serve (as described) for the transmission of data or the status display, a light ring 19 is arranged, which distributes the rather punctiform emitted light homogeneously to a wider area.
    Visible to the outside in the data communication device 3 - seen from above - are the two light-emitting diodes LED 3a and LED 3b, which are used to transmit data, and the photodiode PD, which is used to receive data. Further visible is a battery compartment 16, in which the batteries for powering the data communication device 3 are arranged, a USB interface 8, via which the data communication device 3 can exchange data with a computer, a visual status display device 13 and a power button 21.
    Finally, FIG. 8 shows a detail of a schematically illustrated perspective view of a metering device 2 from obliquely below, in which case the metering device 2 is a device for dispensing soap. The soap outlet opening is provided with the reference numeral 23. Concentric with this outlet opening of the light ring 19 is arranged, which serves the status display of the soap dispenser 2. Furthermore, a button 18, which is also used to activate the receiving device, the phototransistor PT and the infrared LED LED4 can be seen on the underside of the soap dispenser 2.
