Method for controlling a motor of a hand-held power tool
The disclosure relates to a method for controlling a motor of a hand-held power tool by means of a blockable operating element, wherein a first position and a second position of the operating element are ascertained. According to the disclosure, the motor remains deactivated if a deviation of the ascertained first position from the ascertained second position is less than a threshold value.
1. A method for controlling a motor of a hand-held power tool having a lockable operator control element, the method comprising:
initializing an electronics system in response to the lockable operator control element being moved from an inoperative position;
ascertaining (i) a first position of the lockable operator control element at a first time after the initialization of the electronic system has begun and (ii) a second position of the lockable operator control element at a second time after the initialization of the electronic system has begun, the second time being subsequent to the first time by a predetermine time interval; and
activating the motor after the initialization of the electronic system in response to a deviation of the ascertained second position from the ascertained first position being at least a threshold value, wherein the motor remains deactivated in response to the deviation falling below the threshold value.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
ascertaining at least one third position of the lockable operator control element; and
comparing the at least one third position with the first position and with the second position.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electronics system is not energized while the lockable operator control element is at the inoperative position.
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , the initializing further comprising:
initializing the electronics system in response to (i) the motor being deactivated and (ii) the lockable operator control element being moved out of the inoperative position of the lockable operator control element by a threshold value.
5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , the ascertaining further comprising:
ascertaining the first position and the second position of the lockable operator control element during the initialization of the electronic system.
6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the time interval is less than 100 ms.
7. The method as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the time interval is less than 40 ms.
8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the time interval is less than 10 ms.
9. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
ascertaining that the hand-held power tool is not being held,
wherein the motor remains deactivated in response to the ascertaining that the hand-held power tool is not being held.
10. A non-transitory machine-readable memory that stores a computer program for controlling a motor of a hand-held power tool having a lockable operator control element, the computer program being configured to, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:
initialize an electronics system in response to the lockable operator control element being moved from an inoperative position;
ascertain (i) a first position of the lockable operator control element at a first time after the initialization of the electronic system has begun and (ii) a second position of the lockable operator control element at a second time after the initialization of the electronic system has begun, the second time being subsequent to the first time by a predetermine time interval; and
activate the motor after the initialization of the electronic system in response to a deviation of the ascertained second position from the ascertained first position being at least a threshold value, wherein the motor remains deactivated in response to the deviation falling below the threshold value.
11. A hand-held power tool comprising:
a motor;
an electronics system
a lockable operator control element; and
a non-transitory machine-readable memory that stores a computer program for controlling the motor, the computer program being configured to, when executed, cause the hand-held power to:
initialize the electronics system in response to the lockable operator control element being moved from an inoperative position;
ascertain (i) a first position of the lockable operator control element at a first time after the initialization of the electronic system has begun and (ii) a second position of the lockable operator control element at a second time after the initialization of the electronic system has begun, the second time being subsequent to the first time by a predetermine time interval; and
activate the motor after the initialization of the electronic system in response to a deviation of the ascertained second position from the ascertained first position being at least a threshold value, wherein the motor remains deactivated in response to the deviation falling below the threshold value.
