[0049] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0050] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0051] Wall-mounted boilers are commonly used heating and water supply equipment. To ensure a good user experience, it's crucial to ensure a high ignition success rate and stability. Related technologies typically increase the ignition power gradually when ignition fails to occur to improve the boiler's ignition success rate. However, this success rate is affected by multiple factors. Simply adjusting the ignition power alone cannot address ignition failures caused by other factors, such as low gas pressure, and thus has limited impact on improving the ignition success rate.

[0052] Based on this, the present invention provides an ignition control method for a wall-mounted boiler, comprising responding to a start-up instruction of the wall-mounted boiler, controlling the wall-mounted boiler to perform an ignition operation; judging whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful, and when an ignition failure is detected, increasing the valve opening current and controlling the wall-mounted boiler to perform a re-ignition operation, and returning to execute the operation of judging whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful; when the valve opening current is greater than a preset current threshold, detecting the fan speed of the wall-mounted boiler; when the fan speed is greater than a preset speed threshold, adjusting the fan speed to the preset speed threshold, and controlling the wall-mounted boiler to perform a re-ignition operation. When the ignition operation fails, the valve opening current is first adjusted. When the valve opening current is less than the preset current threshold, the valve opening current is increased to increase the opening of the gas proportional valve, thereby increasing the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler by increasing the air intake pressure. When the valve opening current is greater than the preset current threshold, the fan speed is adjusted. By reducing the fan speed, the air flow is reduced, and the ignition failure caused by flame separation and flame transmission failure is avoided by reducing the cold air intake volume, thereby improving the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler. Therefore, the ignition operation of the wall-mounted boiler is controlled by combining the adjustment of the valve opening current and the fan speed, and the ignition success rate is improved from two aspects of increasing the air intake pressure and reducing the cold air intake volume, which can greatly improve the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler.

[0053] The following combination Figures 1 to 5 , describing embodiments of the present invention.

[0054] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, a wall-mounted boiler is provided, which includes at least a combustion system and a controller, wherein the controller is used to execute the ignition control method of the wall-mounted boiler shown in the following embodiment to control the ignition operation of the combustion system, thereby achieving the effect of improving the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler. Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of a combustion system in a wall-mounted boiler according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1As shown, the combustion system includes: a burner 1, a feedback pin 2, an ignition pin 3, and an ignition probe 4; wherein, the feedback pin 2, ignition pin 3, and ignition probe 4 are all mounted on the burner 1. When the wall-mounted boiler is ignited, the ignition pin 3 discharges high voltage and breaks down, generating an arc between it and the air between it and the ignition probe 4. This arc ignites the gas-air mixture ejected from the burner 1 and transmits the flame. The flame burns the feedback pin 2, generating an ion current. If the controller detects this ion current and combustion is maintained, ignition is successful; otherwise, ignition fails.

[0055] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, a method for controlling the ignition of a wall-mounted boiler is provided, which can be applied to the controller of the wall-mounted boiler shown above. Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an ignition control method for a wall-mounted boiler according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0056] Step S201: In response to a start-up instruction of the wall-mounted boiler, the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform an ignition operation.

[0057] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the wall-mounted boiler is started, a start-up instruction of the wall-mounted boiler is generated. At this time, the controller responds to the start-up instruction of the wall-mounted boiler and controls the wall-mounted boiler to perform an ignition operation. Figure 1 The combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler shown in FIG. 1 performs combustion to generate flames.

[0058] Step S202, determining whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful.

[0059] Step S203, when it is detected that the ignition failure of the wall-mounted boiler is detected, the valve opening current of the gas proportional valve of the wall-mounted boiler is detected. When the valve opening current is less than the preset current threshold, the valve opening current is increased and the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform the re-ignition operation, and the operation of determining whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful is returned to be executed.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present invention, when it is detected that the ignition failure of the wall-mounted boiler is detected, the valve opening current of the gas proportional valve of the wall-mounted boiler is detected to be less than a preset current threshold, and the valve opening current is increased to increase the opening of the gas proportional valve, thereby increasing the intake pressure and controlling the wall-mounted boiler to perform a re-ignition operation, wherein the preset current threshold is the value of the valve opening current of the wall-mounted boiler when no explosion occurs during ignition.

[0061] In one embodiment, the valve opening current can be detected in real time, and the valve opening current can be obtained when the ignition failure of the wall-mounted boiler is detected, so as to adjust the air intake pressure of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler based on the adjustment of the valve opening current, and thereby control the wall-mounted boiler to perform the re-ignition operation.

[0062] Step S204: When the valve opening current is greater than or equal to the preset current threshold, the fan speed of the wall-mounted boiler is detected.

[0063] In this embodiment of the present invention, the valve opening current is compared with its corresponding preset current threshold to determine the specific adjustment operation. If the valve opening current is greater than the preset current threshold, it indicates that the valve opening current can no longer be adjusted. In this case, the fan speed of the fan is adjusted. The fan speed of the wall-mounted boiler is detected and the cold air intake of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler is adjusted based on the fan speed.

[0064] In one embodiment, the fan speed can be detected in real time, and the fan speed can be obtained when the valve opening current is greater than a preset current threshold, so as to adjust the cold air intake of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler based on the fan speed.

[0065] In one embodiment, when the valve opening current is less than a preset current threshold, the boiler is controlled to perform a re-ignition operation and adjust the valve opening current to the preset current threshold. Specifically, if the valve opening current is less than or equal to the preset current threshold, it indicates that there is still room for adjustment of the valve opening current. Therefore, the boiler is controlled to perform a re-ignition operation and adjust the valve opening current to the preset current threshold.

[0066] The control unit controls the wall-mounted boiler to perform the ignition operation again, and gradually increases the valve opening current within the ignition time corresponding to the ignition operation until the preset current threshold is reached, or detects that the ignition operation is successfully performed and the wall-mounted boiler is successfully ignited and started, or detects that the ignition operation fails, and stops adjusting the valve opening current. If the wall-mounted boiler still fails to ignite successfully when the valve opening current increases to the preset current threshold within the ignition time corresponding to the ignition operation, or detects that the ignition failure occurs when the ignition time corresponding to the ignition operation is reached, then the above-mentioned step S204 is executed to adjust the cold air intake of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler based on the fan speed.

[0067] Step S205, when the fan speed is greater than the preset speed threshold, adjust the fan speed to the preset speed threshold, control the wall-mounted boiler to perform the re-ignition operation, and return to the operation of determining whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present invention, the fan speed is compared with its corresponding preset speed threshold to determine a specific adjustment operation. If the fan speed is greater than the preset speed threshold, the fan speed adjustment operation is performed. Specifically, when the wall-mounted boiler performs an ignition operation again, the fan speed is gradually reduced within the ignition time corresponding to the previous ignition operation until the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold. Alternatively, the fan speed adjustment is stopped upon detecting that the ignition operation is successful and the wall-mounted boiler is successfully ignited and started, or upon detecting that the ignition operation fails and the wall-mounted boiler has an ignition fault. The preset speed threshold is the value of the fan speed when the wall-mounted boiler is ignited without explosion.

[0069] Among them, since in an ignition operation of a wall-mounted boiler, the fan needs to be started for pre-cleaning before the combustion equipment is ignited, the fan is started for pre-cleaning when the wall-mounted boiler performs the ignition operation. After the pre-cleaning is completed, the fan speed is adjusted once, that is, the fan speed is reduced, and the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform the ignition operation and the combustion system to ignite and burn. At the same time, within the ignition time corresponding to an ignition operation, the fan speed is gradually reduced until the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold, or, it is detected that the ignition is successful and the wall-mounted boiler is successfully ignited and started, or it is detected that the ignition fails and there is an ignition failure in the wall-mounted boiler, and the adjustment of the fan speed is stopped.

[0070] In one embodiment, after the fan speed of the wall-mounted boiler is detected in the above step S204, and after the fan speed is adjusted in the above step S205, there is still a situation where the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold. Since the ignition control of the wall-mounted boiler is performed by first adjusting the valve opening current and then adjusting the fan speed, when the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold, the execution of the ignition operation of the wall-mounted boiler is still detected, indicating that there is an ignition fault in the wall-mounted boiler, and successful ignition cannot be achieved by only adjusting the combustion-related working parameters. Therefore, when the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold, a reminder message is issued to indicate that there is an ignition fault in the wall-mounted boiler.

[0071] In one embodiment, the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler can also be controlled by adjusting the fan speed first and then adjusting the valve opening current; accordingly, Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an ignition control method for a wall-mounted boiler according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0072] Step S301: In response to the start-up instruction of the wall-mounted boiler, the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform an ignition operation. Figure 2 Step S201 in the illustrated embodiment will not be described in detail here.

[0073] Step S302: determine whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful.

[0074] Step S303, when it is detected that the ignition failure of the wall-mounted boiler is detected, the fan speed of the wall-mounted boiler is detected. When the fan speed is greater than the preset speed threshold, the fan speed is reduced and the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform the ignition operation again, and the operation of determining whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful is returned to be executed.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present invention, when it is detected that an ignition operation is to be executed, the fan speed of the wall-mounted boiler is detected, and based on the adjustment of the fan speed, the cold air intake volume of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler is adjusted, and based on this, the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform the ignition operation again.

[0076] In one embodiment, the fan speed can be detected in real time, and the fan speed is obtained when the ignition operation is detected, so as to adjust the cold air intake of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler based on the fan speed.

[0077] Step S304: When the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold, the valve opening current of the gas proportional valve of the wall-mounted boiler is detected.

[0078] In this embodiment of the present invention, the fan speed is compared with its corresponding preset speed threshold to determine the specific adjustment operation. If the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold, it indicates that the fan speed can no longer be adjusted. At this time, the valve opening current of the gas proportional valve is adjusted. The valve opening current of the gas proportional valve of the wall-mounted boiler is detected and the intake pressure of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler is adjusted based on the valve opening current.

[0079] In one embodiment, the valve opening current can be detected in real time, and the valve opening current can be obtained when the fan speed is less than or equal to a preset speed threshold, so as to adjust the air intake pressure of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler based on the valve opening current.

[0080] In one embodiment, the fan speed is compared with a corresponding preset speed threshold to determine a specific adjustment operation. If the fan speed is greater than the preset speed threshold, the fan speed adjustment operation is performed. Specifically, when the wall-mounted boiler performs an ignition operation again, the fan speed is gradually reduced within the ignition time corresponding to the previous ignition operation until the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold, or when it is detected that the ignition operation is successfully executed and the wall-mounted boiler is successfully ignited and started, or when it is detected that the ignition operation fails, the fan speed adjustment is stopped. Taking into account that the fan needs to be started for pre-cleaning before the combustion equipment is ignited, the fan is started for pre-cleaning when the wall-mounted boiler performs the ignition operation. After the pre-cleaning is completed, the fan speed is adjusted once, that is, the fan speed is reduced, and the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform the ignition operation and the combustion system to ignite and burn. At the same time, within the ignition time corresponding to an ignition operation, the fan speed is gradually reduced until the fan speed is less than or equal to the preset speed threshold, or, if it is detected that the ignition operation is successfully performed and the wall-mounted boiler is successfully ignited and started, or if it is detected that the ignition operation fails, the above step S304 is executed to adjust the air intake pressure of the combustion system of the wall-mounted boiler based on the valve opening current.

[0081] Step S305, when the valve opening current is less than or equal to the preset current threshold, the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform a re-ignition operation, and the valve opening current is adjusted to the preset current threshold, and the operation of determining whether the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler is successful is returned to.

[0082] In an embodiment of the present invention, the valve opening current is compared with its corresponding preset current threshold to determine a specific adjustment operation. When the valve opening current is less than or equal to the preset current threshold, the adjustment operation of the valve opening current is performed; specifically, when the wall-mounted boiler is controlled to perform the ignition operation again, the valve opening current is gradually increased within the ignition time corresponding to one ignition operation until the preset current threshold is reached, or, if it is detected that the ignition operation is successfully performed and the wall-mounted boiler is successfully ignited and started, or if it is detected that the ignition operation fails to be performed, the adjustment of the valve opening current is stopped. Among them, within the ignition time corresponding to one ignition operation, if the valve opening current increases to the preset current threshold and the wall-mounted boiler still fails to ignite successfully, or, if it is detected that the ignition operation fails to be performed and there is an ignition fault in the wall-mounted boiler when the ignition time corresponding to one ignition operation is reached, the adjustment of the valve opening current is stopped.

[0083] In the above embodiment, the preset current threshold is the maximum valve-opening current of the boiler, which represents the maximum value of the valve-opening current when the boiler is ignited without deflagration. When the valve-opening current exceeds the preset current threshold, the intake pressure is excessive, and there is a risk of deflagration when the boiler is ignited. The preset speed threshold is the boiler's minimum fan speed, which limits the minimum fan speed to which the boiler can reach when ignited without deflagration. When the fan speed is less than or equal to the minimum fan speed, the cold air intake is insufficient, and there is a risk of deflagration when the boiler is ignited.

[0084] In one embodiment, although the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler is improved by combining the valve opening current with the fan speed, the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler can be improved to a certain extent by adjusting only the valve opening current or the fan speed. Therefore, at least one parameter of the valve opening current and the fan speed can be selected to control the ignition of the wall-mounted boiler.

[0085] In one embodiment, in steps S202 and S302, the ion current of the feedback pin can be detected to determine whether the ignition operation of the wall-mounted boiler is successful. Specifically, the ion current of the feedback pin of the wall-mounted boiler is detected, wherein the feedback pin is provided on the burner of the wall-mounted boiler. When the ion current is detected, it is determined that the wall-mounted boiler has successfully performed the ignition operation. When the ion current is not detected within a set time, it is determined that the wall-mounted boiler has failed to perform the ignition operation.

[0086] In one embodiment, in steps S201 and S301, the boiler startup instruction carries a target temperature, where the target temperature is a desired temperature set by the user based on water supply or heating needs. After determining that the boiler has successfully ignited, the boiler load is adjusted based on the target temperature to ensure that the water outlet temperature reaches the target temperature, thereby meeting the user's needs.

[0087] The ignition control method for a wall-mounted boiler provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes controlling the wall-mounted boiler to perform an ignition operation in response to a start-up instruction of the wall-mounted boiler; when it is detected that the ignition operation fails, detecting the valve opening current of the gas proportional valve of the wall-mounted boiler; when the valve opening current is greater than a preset current threshold, detecting the fan speed of the wall-mounted boiler; when the fan speed is greater than a preset speed threshold, adjusting the fan speed to the preset speed threshold, and controlling the wall-mounted boiler to perform a re-ignition operation. When the ignition operation fails, the valve opening current is first adjusted. By increasing the valve opening current to increase the opening of the gas proportional valve, the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler is improved by increasing the air intake pressure. When the valve opening current is greater than the preset current threshold, the fan speed is adjusted. By reducing the fan speed, the ignition failure caused by flame separation and flame transmission failure is avoided by reducing the cold air intake volume, so as to improve the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler. Therefore, the ignition operation of the wall-mounted boiler is controlled by combining the adjustment of the valve opening current and the fan speed, and the ignition success rate is improved from two aspects of increasing the air intake pressure and reducing the cold air intake volume, which can greatly improve the ignition success rate of the wall-mounted boiler.

[0088] According to another aspect of the present invention, an ignition control device for a wall-mounted boiler is provided. The device is used to implement the above-described embodiments and preferred embodiments, and details already described are omitted. As used below, the term "module" may refer to a combination of software and / or hardware that implements a predetermined function. Although the devices described in the following embodiments are preferably implemented in software, implementation using hardware, or a combination of software and hardware, is also possible and contemplated.
