ABSTRACT:
A control device which may take the form of a plug adaptor is able to interrupt the power to a dryer when the load is dry. The only input is the pattern of the power consumption of the dryer, and this is used, together with a control algorithm, to provide the information needed for the control decision. The device, which provides a superior process for determining the cycle termination point, could also be incorporated directly into the dryers at the point of manufacture. In addition, the invention can correlate the moisture level and character of the laundry load with the pattern of power consumption of the clothes dryer. This correlation may be used to further optimize the performance of the drying cycle or to provide load-specific control and termination procedures.
