Abstract: The patent discloses a method of verifying that a dialysis machine audio alarm has been sounded. The method senses a waveform of electric power, such as a waveform of the current or voltage that drives a speaker. When the speaker produces sound, power consumption changes the waveform in a manner that is detectable by electrical and electronic sensors. The amplitude envelope and frequency or period of waveform is specific to the electrical and mechanical characteristics of the speaker. The waveform may be detected by a current-sensing resistor in series with the speaker power source, by a non-contact current transformer or hall-effect sensor, or may be sampled by an ADC. A computer program then compares this resulting signal to an expected signal or waveform and verify the speaker is working. If the speaker is not working, the machine sends a visual alarm or places itself in safe state.

Abstract translation: 该专利公开了一种验证透析机音频报警器已被发声的方法。 该方法检测电力波形，例如驱动扬声器的电流或电压的波形。 当扬声器产生声音时，功耗会以电子和电子传感器可检测的方式改变波形。 波形的幅度包络和频率或周期特定于扬声器的电气和机械特性。 波形可以由与扬声器电源串联的电流检测电阻器，非接触式电流互感器或霍尔效应传感器来检测，或者可以由ADC采样。 然后，计算机程序将此结果信号与预期信号或波形进行比较，并验证扬声器是否正常工作。 如果扬声器不工作，机器会发出视觉警报或将其置于安全状态。
