Problems solved by technology

[0003] The air conditioners currently on the market can only work according to the working mode set by the user, which is not user-friendly and intelligent enough.
For example, when the user forgets to turn off the air conditioner when he goes out in the morning, the air conditioner will always be in a high-load operation state, resulting in waste of energy
For another example, when the air conditioner is turned off, the indoor temperature cannot be adjusted. When the user enters the room again after leaving for a period of time, the indoor temperature will often be too cold or too hot
At this time, since it takes a long time to turn on the air conditioner to adjust the temperature again, the air conditioner cannot immediately provide the user with a comfortable environment.
[0004] Therefore, the existing air-conditioning control method cannot adjust the working state of the air-conditioning according to the specific conditions in the room, so it will lead to waste of energy or make the user in an uncomfortable state.

Embodiment 1

[0024] figure 1 It is a schematic flow chart of an air conditioner control method provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations such as intelligent control of the air conditioner when the user leaves the room. The method can be executed by the air conditioner control device, and specifically includes the following steps :

[0025] Step 110, when the preset opening condition of the going-out energy-saving mode is met, start the going-out energy-saving mode corresponding to the preset opening condition.

[0026] Wherein, the going-out energy-saving mode is an energy-saving mode for enabling the air conditioner to operate with low energy consumption when the user goes out for a short time or a long time. Preferably, different energy-saving modes for going out can be set according to the length of time the user goes out.

[0027] The preset enabling condition of the going-out energy-saving mode may be: detection of a manual activa...

Embodiment 2

[0041] Figure 4 It is a schematic flowchart of an air conditioner control method provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In this embodiment, the step "when the preset enabling condition of the going out energy saving mode is met, start the going out energy saving mode corresponding to the preset turning on condition" in the first embodiment is optimized to "if the manual opening corresponding to the going out energy saving mode is detected signal, and the user leaves the room for longer than the set short-time leave time, start the short-time going out energy saving mode; if no manual start signal corresponding to the going out energy saving If the set duration of long-time absence is set, the energy-saving mode for long-time absence will be activated." refer to Figure 4 , the embodiment of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:

[0042] Step 210, acquire attribute information of the air conditioner remote controller.

[0043] Wherein...

Embodiment 3

[0065] Figure 5 It is a schematic flowchart of an air conditioner control method provided in Embodiment 3 of the present invention. This embodiment refines the process after the step "starting the energy-saving mode for going out for a short time" in the above-mentioned embodiment. refer to Figure 5 , the embodiment of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:

[0066] Step 310, start the energy-saving mode of going out for a short time.

[0067] Step 320, obtaining the current outdoor temperature, the current indoor temperature and the current operating frequency.

[0068] Exemplarily, since the air conditioner has two modes of cooling and heating, in different modes, the operating frequency of the air conditioner needs to be adjusted accordingly according to the current indoor and outdoor temperatures. The main board of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner obtains the outdoor temperature, the indoor temperature and the current operating freque...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses an air conditioner control method and device. The method includes the steps that when a preset starting condition of a go-out energy saving mode is met, the go-out energy saving mode corresponding to the preset starting condition is started; and according to the go-out energy saving mode, the running state of an air conditioner is adjusted in combination with the environment temperature or the running time of the go-out energy saving mode. By the adoption of the above technical solution, the problem that a current air conditioner does not have the go-out energy saving mode or the go-out energy saving mode is not intelligent enough can be solved, it is achieved that the running state of the air conditioner is intelligently adjusted, and the purpose of reducing energy consumption of the air conditioner and providing a comfortable indoor temperature for a use is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of automation, and in particular to an air conditioner control method and device. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of air-conditioning technology and the continuous improvement of users' requirements for air-conditioning performance, comfort and energy saving have become a hot and difficult point in air-conditioning control. [0003] The air conditioners currently on the market can only work according to the working mode set by the user, which is not user-friendly and intelligent enough. For example, when a user forgets to turn off the air conditioner when he goes out in the morning, the air conditioner will always be in a high-load operation state, thereby causing energy waste. For another example, when the air conditioner is turned off, the indoor temperature cannot be adjusted. When the user enters the room again after leaving for a period of time, the i...
