Patent EP-1433400-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MATSUNAGA HIDEAKI
IPC: A47C1/04
Filed: 2002-10-03
Abstract: There is a demand for an automatic shampoo machine
used in beauty solons and the like which dispenses with
an all-purpose chair to be prepared separately and has
a better appearance and an improved feeling of use. 
     In an automatic shampoo machine 1, a seat 2 for
seating a person to be shampooed thereon during shampooing
and a basin 13 for receiving the person's head for the
shampooing are supported by a common housing 3. The
housing 3 accommodates and supports spout means 4 for
spouting warm water automatically in the basin 13. Since
the seat 2 is integrated in the automatic shampoo machine
1, the need for separately preparing a chair is obviated
and the automatic shampoo machine 1 has an improved
appearance. By using a space below the seat 2 effectively,
functional components of the spout means 4 such as a warm
water reservoir tank 45 are disposed in the space and
the components can more flexibly be laid out. Aback-rest
8 of the seat 2 is arranged to incline so that the person' s
face is naturally oriented vertically upward, thereby
alleviating a burden on the neck of the person. A seating
portion 7 of the seat 2 is adjustable in height, thereby
making it possible to properly position the person' s neck
in the basin 13, accommodating the variations in sitting
height.

Abstract: By using a target voltage Vc* of a capacitor connected to
the output side of a DC/DC converter and a voltage Vb of a battery
connected to the input side of the DC/DC converter, a duty ratio
D (Vb/Vc*) as a drive instruction of the DC/DC converter is
calculated (S100, S102). By using the voltage Vb, the
electromotive force Vbo of the battery, and the charge/discharge
current Ib of the battery, an internal resistance Rb ((Vbo-Vb)/Ib)
is calculated (S104). According to the internal resistance Rb
and the electromotive force Vbo, the current value (value Vbo/2Rb)
when the battery output becomes maximum is set as the upper limit
value of the optimal current range IR (S106), the DC/DC converter
is driven/controlled by limiting the duty ratio Dso that the current
Ib is within the range of the optimal current range IR (S108, S110,
S112). Thus, it is possible to appropriately convert the battery
input voltage.
