Detailed Implementation

[0044] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] The method for linking air conditioners and display screen appliances provided in this embodiment of the invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0046] Acquire information; the information includes: environmental information and / or operating information of the display screen appliances;

[0047] Based on the information obtained, control the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner.

[0048] In this solution, it should be noted that the environmental information includes: ambient humidity (see below for details), which is the humidity of the environment in which the display screen electrical appliances are located; the operating information of the display screen electrical appliances includes: the operating time of the display screen electrical appliances (see below for details);

[0049] Furthermore, this solution controls the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner based on the acquired information until an eye-protection state is achieved. For example, when the display screen appliances run for a longer than a preset time, the display screen appliances are turned off; or when the ambient humidity is lower than a preset humidity, the air conditioner is controlled to humidify. In other words, this solution provides a linkage control method between ambient humidity and / or the operating time of the display screen appliances, which can effectively avoid excessive eye strain and / or eye dryness, thereby protecting the eyes and improving the user experience. Of course, this solution can also use the air conditioner as the main component, acquiring the above information through the air conditioner's air conditioning acquisition module (i.e., the air conditioner eye protection module), and then using the air conditioner's air conditioning control module to control the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner based on the acquired information, achieving a highly integrated and low-cost linkage control effect.

[0050] As can be seen from the above technical solution, in the linkage method between air conditioner and display screen appliance provided in the embodiments of the present invention, environmental information and / or operating information of display screen appliance are first obtained, and then the operation of display screen appliance and / or air conditioner is controlled according to the obtained information. In this way, the linkage control between display screen appliance and air conditioner is realized, which can effectively avoid the problem of excessive eye use or dry eyes caused by display screen appliance, thereby achieving the purpose of protecting the eyes and thus helping to improve the user experience.

[0051] In this solution, to avoid prolonged use of the display screen and reduce concerns about excessive eye strain, thus protecting the eyes, this solution requires control over the operating time of the display screen. Accordingly, the information acquired includes:

[0052] Obtain the operating time of the display screen's electrical components;

[0053] The step of controlling the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner based on the acquired information includes:

[0054] Control the operation of the display screen's electrical components based on their operating time.

[0055] Specifically, controlling the operation of the display screen appliance based on its operating time includes: determining whether the operating time of the display screen appliance exceeds a preset time (reasonable screen usage time); if so, sending a reminder that the display screen appliance has timed out. This design serves as a warning of timeout, and based on this warning, a decision is made on whether to shut down the display screen appliance. Furthermore, the operating information of the display screen appliance in this solution may also include its operating temperature; the corresponding control principle is the same as above and will not be elaborated here.

[0056] Furthermore, the sending of the reminder for the timeout of the display screen appliance includes:

[0057] The system sends a timeout reminder to the cloud control module for the display screen appliance. This design allows guardians to receive reminders remotely about when children have exceeded the timeout limit for using the display screen appliance, enabling them to further control the appliance as needed, such as turning it off. This makes the system convenient for both timeout monitoring and remote monitoring.

[0058] In this solution, the method for linking the air conditioner and the display screen appliance further includes:

[0059] Obtain control commands from the display device and / or air conditioner via the app;

[0060] According to control commands, the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner is controlled. In other words, this solution uses the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner as the main control entities, and then controls the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner (themselves and / or another type of appliance), thereby helping to achieve deep linkage control between the display screen appliances and air conditioner, thus better achieving the effect of protecting the eyes.

[0061] Furthermore, in order to make the air conditioner the main component of the linkage control (i.e., this solution sets the linkage control method within the air conditioner for control), so as to achieve a linkage control effect with high integration and low cost; accordingly, the information acquisition includes:

[0062] The running time of the display device is obtained through the air conditioner's eye protection module; more specifically, the power-on signal of the display device is sent to the air conditioner's eye protection module, and the air conditioner's eye protection module starts timing after receiving the signal;

[0063] The step of controlling the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner based on the acquired information includes:

[0064] The operation of the display screen appliance is controlled by the air conditioner's eye protection module based on the operating time of the display screen appliance. More specifically, the air conditioner's eye protection module first determines whether the operating time of the display screen appliance exceeds a preset time. If so, the air conditioner's eye protection module sends a reminder that the display screen appliance has exceeded the time limit. After the guardian confirms the timeout reminder, the air conditioner's eye protection module finally sends a shutdown command to the display screen appliance, which is received by the display screen appliance's data transceiver.

[0065] Furthermore, to better achieve air conditioner control over the display screen appliance, the display screen appliance must first be within the air conditioner's preset control range (preset distance range). Therefore, this solution requires the ability to identify the presence of the display screen appliance within the air conditioner's preset distance range. Accordingly, before acquiring the information, the solution also includes:

[0066] The system identifies whether there are display screen appliances within a preset distance range of the air conditioner; if so, it retrieves the information.

[0067] Specifically, to avoid using display screens in dry environments and thus reduce eye discomfort and protect the eyes, this solution requires an adaptive humidity control function; correspondingly, the information acquisition includes:

[0068] Obtain ambient humidity;

[0069] The step of controlling the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner based on the acquired information includes:

[0070] The system controls the air conditioning operation based on ambient humidity. More specifically, it first determines whether the ambient humidity is lower than the preset humidity; if so, it controls the air conditioning to humidify the environment and ensure a suitable humidity level for eye use. Of course, to better ensure the humidity of the eye-use environment, the humidity adaptive adjustment function in this solution must be used when the display screen's electrical components are not in overdue condition.

[0071] In this solution, when it is detected that a guardian is using the display screen appliance, there is no need to activate the eye protection function, meaning there is no need to link the operation of the display screen appliance and the air conditioner. In other words, if the guardian is using the display screen appliance, the eye protection function of the air conditioner can be turned off. Therefore, this solution requires the ability to identify whether the display screen appliance is being used by a guardian. Accordingly, before acquiring the information, the solution also includes:

[0072] Obtain the usage mode of the display screen's electrical appliances;

[0073] Determine if the display screen is in eye protection mode; if not, obtain the information.

[0074] This invention also provides an air conditioner that is linked to the display screen's electrical appliances, comprising: an air conditioner body, the air conditioner body comprising:

[0075] An information acquisition module for obtaining environmental information and / or operating information of display screen appliances;

[0076] An air conditioning eye protection module is used to control the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner based on the acquired information. In this solution, the air conditioner is the main control unit. The air conditioner's acquisition module obtains the aforementioned information, and then the air conditioner's control module controls the operation of the display screen appliances and / or air conditioner based on the acquired information. In this way, the solution achieves a highly integrated and low-cost linkage control effect.

[0077] The following will further describe this solution with reference to specific embodiments:

[0078] This control method combines the time acquisition and humidity analysis functions of the LCD screen with the air conditioning control to achieve eye protection.

[0079] This control method combines LCD screen time acquisition and humidity analysis with air conditioning to achieve eye protection. Figure 3 As shown, first, install data transceivers on all appliances with displays and connect them to the air conditioner eye protection module. Then connect the air conditioner humidification module and the cloud control module (APP) to the air conditioner eye protection module. For example... Figure 2 As shown, appliances N1, N2, and N3 with LCD screens are connected to the air conditioner eye protection module. Once the air conditioner is powered on, the eye protection module will also be powered on. When an appliance with a display screen is turned on, it sends a signal to the air conditioner eye protection module, which is simultaneously sent to the app. The homeowner can then determine whether the air conditioner eye protection module needs to be turned on (if a parent is using the appliance with a display screen, they can choose to turn it off) and start timing Tn.

[0080] When Tn < m, the humidification module is turned on. When the detected ambient humidity s < a, humidification is automatically started to ensure the humidity of the eye - using environment and reach the state of protecting the eyes.

[0081] When the duration reaches the preset duration and Tn > m (m is the reasonable eye - using time), a reminder is sent to the APP to remind the parents. The parents can choose whether to turn off the electrical appliances with displays according to the actual situation.

[0082] In addition, the embodiment of the present invention also provides an air conditioner linked with the display electrical appliance, as Figure 4 shown, including: an air - conditioner body 10, and the air - conditioner body 10 includes:

[0083] An information acquisition module 11 for acquiring the operation information of the display electrical appliance 20;

[0084] An air - conditioner eye - protection module 12 communicatively connected to the information acquisition module 11;

[0085] An air - conditioner operation module 13 communicatively connected to the air - conditioner eye - protection module 12.

[0086] In this solution, it should be noted that the information acquisition module 11 sends the acquired information to the air - conditioner eye - protection module 12. The air - conditioner eye - protection module 12 then analyzes this information and then sends corresponding control instructions to the air - conditioner operation module 13 based on the analysis conclusion to achieve the state of protecting the eyes when using the display electrical appliance 20. For example, if the information acquired by the information acquisition module 11 is the information of the ambient humidity (the humidity of the environment where the display electrical appliance 20 is located), the air - conditioner eye - protection module 12 sends corresponding control instructions to the air - conditioner operation module 13 according to the ambient humidity, so as to adjust the ambient humidity, effectively avoid the problem of dry eyes during eye use, play a role in protecting the eyes, and thus help improve the user experience effect.

[0087] In the air conditioner linked with the display electrical appliance provided by the embodiment of the present invention, this solution takes the air - conditioner body 10 as the main body, acquires the operation information of the display electrical appliance 20 through its information acquisition module 11, and then controls the operation of the air - conditioner operation module 13 by the air - conditioner eye - protection module 12 according to the acquired information, thus realizing the eye - protection adjustment of the air conditioner linked with the display electrical appliance 20 to achieve the purpose of protecting the eyes; this solution is designed in this way, with the characteristics of high integration, low cost, and good eye - protection adjustment effect; at the same time, this solution also helps to improve the user experience effect.

[0088] In this solution, in order to avoid using the display electrical appliance 20 for a long time, reduce the worry of over - using eyes, and achieve the effect of protecting the eyes; this requires this solution to perform overtime control on the operation duration of the display electrical appliance; correspondingly, the information acquisition module 11 includes:

[0089] This module is used to obtain the runtime of the display appliance 20. The air conditioning eye protection module 12 sends a runtime overdue reminder based on the runtime of the display appliance 20, or sends a corresponding control command to the display appliance 20 based on the runtime overdue reminder. More specifically, the air conditioning eye protection module 12 first determines whether the runtime of the display appliance 20 exceeds a preset time (reasonable screen time). If so, it sends a runtime overdue reminder, thus serving as a warning. After the user confirms the reminder, it decides whether to turn off the display appliance 20 based on the actual situation. If the display appliance 20 is to be turned off, the air conditioning eye protection module 12 sends a shutdown command to the display appliance 20. Furthermore, the operating information of the display appliance 20 in this solution may also include the operating temperature of the display appliance 20; the corresponding linkage control principle is the same as above and will not be elaborated here.

[0090] Furthermore, in order to better reflect the air conditioning system as the main body of the linkage control, so as to achieve a better linkage control effect with high integration and low cost, the duration acquisition module preferably includes an air conditioning timing module; moreover, this solution is designed in this way, which also has the characteristics of convenient duration acquisition and high linkage integration.

[0091] Furthermore, to increase the convenience of remote monitoring or control for users (guardians), this solution needs to have remote monitoring and control functions; correspondingly, such as Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner body 10 also includes: a cloud control module 14;

[0092] The cloud control module 14 is communicatively connected to the air conditioner eye protection module 12 and the air conditioner operation module 13. Specifically, the air conditioner eye protection module 12 can send a reminder to the cloud control module 14 that the display appliance 20 has timed out, so that the user is aware of it. After the user confirms the timeout reminder on the cloud control module 14, if the user wants to turn off the display appliance 20, the cloud control module 14 can send a shutdown command to the air conditioner eye protection module 12, and then the air conditioner eye protection module 12 will send a shutdown command to the display appliance 20, thereby realizing the shutdown of the display appliance 20 after the timeout.

[0093] In this solution, to avoid using the display screen 20 in a dry environment and thus reduce eye discomfort and protect the eyes, the solution requires a humidity adaptive adjustment function; accordingly, the information acquisition module 11 includes:

[0094] A humidity acquisition module is used to obtain ambient humidity; the humidity acquisition module is communicatively connected to the air conditioner eye protection module 12;

[0095] The air conditioner operation module 13 includes: an air conditioner humidification module, and the air conditioner humidification module is communicatively connected to the air conditioner eye protection module 12. More specifically, after the humidity acquisition module acquires the ambient humidity, the air conditioner eye protection module 12 determines whether the ambient humidity is less than the preset humidity. If so, the air conditioner eye protection module 12 sends a humidification instruction to the air conditioner humidification module until the eye use environment reaches a suitable humidity, thus avoiding the problem of dry eyes. Of course, in order to better ensure the humidity of the eye use environment, it is required that the humidity adaptive adjustment function in this solution is used during the period when the display device 20 is operating without timeout. Thus, this solution provides an air conditioner system that联动控制 the display device 20 to control the ambient humidity and / or the operation duration of the display device 20.

[0096] Furthermore, as Figure 4 shown, the air conditioner联动控制 with the display device provided by the embodiment of the present invention further includes: a display device 20; the display device 20 includes: a data transceiver 21;

[0097] The data transceiver 21 is communicatively connected to the air conditioner eye protection module 12. This solution is designed in this way to实现 the communication connection between the display device 20 and the air conditioner eye protection module 12, and further facilitates the联动 control of the display device 20. That is to say, the air conditioner eye protection module 12 sends corresponding control instructions to the display device 20 through the data transceiver 21 according to the operation duration of the display device 20. More specifically, the air conditioner eye protection module 12 first determines whether the operation duration of the display device 20 is greater than the preset duration (reasonable eye use time). If so, it sends a reminder that the display device 20 is operating overtime. After the user confirms this reminder, it then decides whether to turn off the display device 20 according to the actual situation. If it is to turn off the display device 20, the air conditioner eye protection module 12 then sends a shutdown instruction to the data transceiver 21 to实现 the overtime shutdown of the display device 20, thus eliminating the problem of overusing eyes.

[0098] Still further, the air conditioner main body 10 further includes: a wireless communication module;

[0099] The air conditioner eye protection module 12 is wirelessly communicatively connected to the data transceiver 21 through the wireless communication module. This solution adopts the wireless communication connection method, which has the characteristics of simple structure, convenient communication, and economic practicality.

[0100] In this solution, the air conditioner main body 10 further includes: an air conditioner connection module;

[0101] It should be noted that the term "联动控制" in the original text may not be a standard English expression. You may need to further clarify or correct it according to the actual meaning to make the translation more accurate.The air conditioner connection module is communicatively connected to the display screen appliance 20 and the air conditioner eye protection module 12. This design facilitates the linkage control of the air conditioner with the display screen appliance 20, enabling the air conditioner eye protection module 12 to control the operation of the display screen appliance 20 based on its operating time, thereby achieving an eye-protection effect with an overtime reminder.
