The machine IGNIS K12 (PHILIPS) AWF627/IG P.M. SYSTEM is illustrated in the figures but typically it can comprise a drum mounted on a shaft in bearings so as to be rotatable on a horizontal axis within a liquid containing cylinder which is suspended by means of cooperating springs and dampers within an outer cabinet. A DC electric drive motor of the series-type is secured to the liquid containing cylinder and is drivingly connected by means of a `V` or multi-V belt-drive system to a pulley wheel secured to the drum shaft outside the liquid cylinder. The system is such that the drum is rotated at a speed below the motor speed and in a fixed relationship of say 1:18 or thereabout. Liquid may be supplied to the cylinder through an electromagnetically actuated inlet valve and removed by an electric motor-driven pump. Liquid in the cylinder may be heated by an electric sheathed wire heating element mounted in a lower wall of the cylinder, the heating element being disposed within the cylinder.
In operation of the washing machine its various functions are sequentially controlled by a program controller comprising a synchronous electric timer motor actuating, via a stepping linkage, a number of cams and hence switches which control the supply of electrical power to the various parts of the machine in sequence so as to cause a particular program of operations to be performed on clothes placed in the drum, and a solid state switching circuit, also controlled by the timer motor for the drive motor of the machine, which controls the speed and acceleration of the drum motor even with a manually adjustable user controlled potentiometer.
A motor speed control circuit for use in a washing machine includes a timer which in normal operation accelerates the motor from a wash speed to a distribution speed (50 to 100 rpm) before a fast acceleration to the spin dry speed. The control circuit includes speed measurement means for maintaining the motor at 0 speed in the event of a power interruption during a spin cycle provided the drum speed remains above a given critical speed when the power returns. If not, 0 speed cycle takes place.
The IGNIS K12 (PHILIPS) AWF627/IG P.M. SYSTEM was first Electronic driven motor washing machine featuring a control circuit for permanent magnet (PM SYSTEM) or constant excitation direct current motors, particularly for washing machines, characterized by a circuit for regulating the rotational speed of a DC motor. In the modern actual known circuit, a tachometer dynamo is fixed onto the shaft of said motor, said dynamo generating a signal which is proportional to the motor rotational speed and is fed to an electronic circuit which acts on the motor to regulate its speed when required.In the case of tachometer dynamos, their cost is relatively high and their installation is often laborious and costly.The main object of the present invention featured in the IGNIS K12 (PHILIPS) AWF627/IG P.M. SYSTEM is therefore to provide an electric motor control circuit which operates accurately without such costly dynamo.A further object is to provide an electric motor control circuit which enables the motor to operate substantially at constant power within determined limits of torque and rotational speed.
IN BRIEF....The Technicals......During the motor drive time, motor velocity is proportional to the applied energizing voltage for constant loads. As the load of the motor changes the motor velocity will be controlled as a function of applied energizing voltage by sensing the back emf and comparing the back emf signal with a commanded motor velocity signal. By controlling the motor with the back emf, it is thus possible to have a very precise and constant motor velocity for changing loads by varying the level of applied energizing voltage. An advantage of the present invention is thus to provide velocity regulation of a motor that is reasonably constant for a commanded input signal, even though the motor may inherently have poor speed regulation if constant voltage is applied because of D.C. motor. The amount of power a motor is required to deliver has little effect on motor velocity.To control motor velocity with the Control Unit of the present invention the behavior of a rotating armature in a field to generate a back emf is utilized. If the armature isn't moving through the field, then there is no back emf and the level of any generated back emf is an immediate indication of the operation of the motor (In example when NO self restart of the drum is mandatory performed when stopped during distribution / spind-drain and or spinning). The Control Unit of the present invention does not rely on a signal provided by an independent generator, but rather utilizes the basic operation of the motor. There is also no reliance on the variation in armature resistance, which as explained, may vary with armature construction. Furthermore the speed of the motor is resulting indipendent of the Mains supply voltage for the aformementioned features.
The IGNIS K12 (PHILIPS) AWF627/IG P.M. SYSTEM was therefore first Electronic driven motor washing machine but as per performance and technology is far above all modern technology. The speed control precision is equal if not better than best microprocessor inverter types of todays..............toys....................and is reliable and undestroyable (Collector carbon brushes lasting forever.............and Permanent magnets too...............)
IGNIS, GIOVANNI BORGHI HISTORY.
Investing in the industrial development of artisan villages
in Varese, Italy, Giovanni Borghi builds a factory for 200
employees to manufacture not only ovens and cooktops, but
also an appliance previously unknown in Italy: the refrigerator.
Ignis workers produce appliances for third-party companies
like Fiat, Atlantic, Philco, Emerson and Philips. Borghi builds
the “Villages of Ignis,” with affordable one- and two-family
houses (Borghi Villages), as well as a pool and sports center
in Comerio, Italy, and a hostel vvith recreational facilities for
young workers in Cassinetta, Italy, all intended to promote a
comfortable, healthy lifestyle.

comfortable, healthy lifestyle.
The Milan industrialist Giovanni Borghi founded
the IGNIS brand of household appliances. His factories would turn out
one appliance every eight seconds, and make billions selling them to
Italy's exploding middle class. Borghi was famous for his early
support of cycling, and his yellow IGNIS jerseyed squadra won more than a
few great races in the late fifties and early sixties.Borghi was aggressive, flamboyant and flashy. And he took care of his stars - famously buying Spanish sprinter Miguel Poblet a Lancia convertible after his Milan San Remo win. On top of his 25 million lire per year salary.
Giovanni
Borghi, was an Italian industrialist pioneer in the field of domestic
appliances, returned from a trip in the USA with a real
illumination: refrigerators insulated with Polyurethane foam were much more
efficient and capacious than those hand-filled with mineral wood.
His refrigerators Group, Ignis, developed internally this technology and the
related equipment, a suitable alternative to the imported foam dispensers, which
were difficult to get, fix and maintain, stimulating an industrial supply of
similar machines.

His refrigerators Group, Ignis, developed internally this technology and the
related equipment, a suitable alternative to the imported foam dispensers, which

similar machines.
Borghi kept control of IGNIS in the family. In the paternalistic Italian industrial model - like Ferrari, Maserati or Campagnolo. He later turned the reins over to his son, who in turn finally sold the company to Dutch conglomerate, Philips.
When Philips decided to get into the major household appliances
market, its procedure was to buy increasing quantities of these goods from the Italian firm, Ignis, then at the height of its prosperity.
Once it became the principal client of the manufacturer, it took over supplying the latter by purchasing 50 percent of its capital. It took over the firm completely in 1972, to the satisfaction of the founder of Ignis, Giovanni Borghi.
In
1988, IRE-Ignis became a joint venture between Philips and Whirlpool,
which entered the capital with 53% of the shares, becoming the majority
shareholder.
The American company in 1991, acquired the whole of the Ignis, which became Italy s.r.l, Whirlpool and Whirlpool Europe later, and since then is a part of the group, which produced household appliances in the Italian plants, still active
BORGHI DIED IN 1975.
Borghi is still remembered in Italia. RAI even aired TV miniseries about his life this past year, "Mister Ignis".
Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. (Royal Philips Electronics Inc.), most commonly known as Philips, (Euronext: PHIA, NYSE: PHG) is a multinational Dutch electronics corporation.
Philips is one of the largest electronics companies in the world. In 2009, its sales were €23.18 billion. The company employs 115,924 people in more than 60 countries.[1]
Philips is organized in a number of sectors: Philips Consumer Lifestyles (formerly Philips Consumer Electronics and Philips Domestic Appliances and Personal Care), Philips Lighting and Philips Healthcare (formerly Philips Medical Systems).
The company was founded in 1891 by Gerard Philips, a maternal cousin of Karl Marx, in Eindhoven, Netherlands. Its first products were light bulbs and other electro-technical equipment. Its first factory survives as a museum devoted to light sculpture.[2] In the 1920s, the company started to manufacture other products, such as vacuum tubes (also known worldwide as 'valves'), In 1927 they acquired the British electronic valve manufacturers Mullard and in 1932 the German tube manufacturer Valvo, both of which became subsidiaries. In 1939 they introduced their electric razor, the Philishave (marketed in the USA using the Norelco brand name).
Philips was also instrumental in the revival of the Stirling engine.
As a chip maker, Philips Semiconductors was among the Worldwide Top 20 Semiconductor Sales Leaders.
In December 2005 Philips announced its intention to make the Semiconductor Division into a separate legal entity. This process of "disentanglement" was completed on 1 October 2006.
On 2 August 2006, Philips completed an agreement to sell a controlling 80.1% stake in Philips Semiconductors to a consortium of private equity investors consisting of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (KKR), Silver Lake Partners and AlpInvest Partners. The sale completed a process, which began December 2005, with its decision to create a separate legal entity for Semiconductors and to pursue all strategic options. Six weeks before, ahead of its online dialogue, through a letter to 8,000 of Philips managers, it was announced that they were speeding up the transformation of Semiconductors into a stand-alone entity with majority ownership by a third party. It was stated then that "this is much more than just a transaction: it is probably the most significant milestone on a long journey of change for Philips and the beginning of a new chapter for everyone – especially those involved with Semiconductors".
In its more than 115 year history, this co
unts
as a big step that is definitely changing the profile of the
company. Philips was one of few companies that successfully made the
transition from the electrical world of the 19th century into the
electronic age, starting its semiconductor activity in 1953 and
building it into a global top 10 player in its industry. As such,
Semiconductors was at the heart of many innovations in Philips over
the past 50 years.Agreeing to start a process that would ultimately lead to the decision to sell the Semiconductor Division therefore was one of the toughest decisions that the Board of Management ever had to make.
On 21 August 2006, Bain Capital and Apax Partners announced that they had signed definitive commitments to join the expanded consortium headed by KKR that is to acquire the controlling stake in the Semiconductors Division.
On 1 September 2006, it was announced in Berlin that the name of the new semiconductor company founded by Philips is NXP Semiconductors.
Coinciding with the sale of the Semiconductor Division, Philips also announced that they would drop the word 'Electronics' from the company name, thus becoming simply Koninklijke Philips N.V. (Royal Philips N.V.).
PHILIPS FOUNDATION:
The
foundations of Philips were laid in 1891 when Anton and Gerard
Philips established Philips & Co. in Eindhoven, the
Netherlands. The company begun manufacturing carbon-filament lamps
and by the turn of the century, had become one of the largest
producers in Europe. Stimulated by the industrial revolution in
Europe, Philips’ first research laboratory started introducing its
first innovations in the x-ray and radio technology. Over the years,
the list of inventions has only been growing to include many
breakthroughs that have continued to enrich people’s everyday lives.In the early years of Philips & Co., the representation of the company name took many forms: one was an emblem formed by the initial letters of Philips & Co., and another was the word Philips printed on the glass of metal filament lamps.
One of the very first campaigns was launched in 1898 when Anton Philips used a range of postcards showing the Dutch national costumes as marketing tools. Each letter of the word Philips was printed in a row of light bulbs as at the top of every card. In the late 1920s, the Philips name began to take on the form that we recognize today.
The now familiar Philips waves and stars first appeared in 1926 on the packaging of miniwatt radio valves, as well as on the Philigraph, an early sound recording device. The waves symbolized radio waves, while the stars represented the ether of the evening sky through which the radio waves would travel.
In 1930 it was the first time that the four stars flanking the three waves were placed together in a circle. After that, the
stars and waves started appearing on radios and gramophones,
featuring this circle as part of their design. Gradually the use of
the circle emblem was then extended to advertising materials and other
products.At this time Philips’ business activities were expanding rapidly and the company wanted to find a trademark that would uniquely represent Philips, but one that would also avoid legal problems with the owners of other well-known circular emblems. This wish resulted in the combination of the Philips circle and the wordmark within the shield emblem.
In 1938, the Philips shield made its first appearance. Although modified over the years, the basic design has remained constant ever since and, together with the wordmark, gives Philips the distinctive identity that is still embraced today.
Gerard Philips:
Gerard
Leonard Frederik Philips (October 9, 1858, in Zaltbommel – January
27, 1942, in The Hague, Netherlands) was a Dutch industrialist,
co-founder (with his father Frederik Philips) of the Philips Company
as a family business in 1891. Gerard and his younger brother Anton
Philips changed the business to a corporation by founding in 1912 the
NV Philips' Gloeilampenfabrieken. As the first CEO of the Philips
corporation, Gerard laid with Anton the base for the later Philips
multinational.Early life and education
Gerard was the first son of Benjamin Frederik David Philips (1 December 1830 – 12 June 1900) and Maria Heyligers (1836 – 1921). His father was active in the tobacco business and a banker at Zaltbommel in the Netherlands; he was a first cousin of Karl Marx.
Career
Gerard Philips became interested in electronics and engineering. Frederik was the financier for Gerard's purchase of the old factory building in Eindhoven where he established the first factory in 1891. They operated the Philips Company as a family business for more than a decade.
Marriage and family
On March 19, 1896 Philips married Johanna van der Willigen (30 September 1862 – 1942). They had no children.
Gerard was an uncle of Frits Philips, whom he and his brother brought into the business. Later they brought in his brother's grandson, Franz Otten.
Gerard and his brother Anton supported education and social programs in Eindhoven, including the Philips Sport Vereniging (Philips Sports Association), which they founded. From it the professional football (soccer) department developed into the independent Philips Sport Vereniging N.V.
Anton Philips:
Anton
Frederik Philips (March 14, 1874, Zaltbommel, Gelderland – October
7, 1951, Eindhoven) co-founded Royal Philips Electronics N.V. in 1912
with his older brother Gerard Philips in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
He served as CEO of the company from 1922 to 1939.Early life and education
Anton was born to Maria Heyligers (1836 – 1921) and Benjamin Frederik David Philips (December 1, 1830 – June 12, 1900). His father was active in the tobacco business and a banker at Zaltbommel in the Netherlands. (He was a first cousin to Karl Marx.) Anton's brother Gerard was 16 years older.
Career
In May 1891 the father Frederik was the financier and, with his son Gerard Philips, co-founder of the Philips Company as a family business. In 1912 Anton joined the firm, which they named Royal Philips Electronics N.V.
During World War I, Anton Philips managed to increas
e
sales by taking advantage of a boycott of German goods in several
countries. He provided the markets with alternative products.Anton (and his brother Gerard) are remembered as being civic-minded. In Eindhoven they supported education and social programs and facilities, such as the soccer department of the Philips Sports Association as the best-known example.
Anton Philips brought his son Frits Philips and grandson Franz Otten into the company in their times. Anton took the young Franz Otten with him and other family members to escape the Netherlands just before the Nazi Occupation during World War II; they went to the United States. They returned after the war.
His son Frits Philips chose to stay and manage the company during the occupation; he survived several months at the concentration camp of Vught after his workers went on strike. He saved the lives of 382 Jews by claiming them as indispensable to his factory, and thus helped them evade Nazi roundups and deportation to concentration camps.
Philips died in Eindhoven in 1951.
Marriage and family
Philips married Anne Henriëtte Elisabeth Maria de Jongh (Amersfoort, May 30, 1878 – Eindhoven, March 7, 1970). They had the following children:
* Anna Elisabeth Cornelia Philips (June 19, 1899 – ?), married in 1925 to Pieter Franciscus Sylvester Otten (1895 – 1969), and had:
