[0044] The realization, functional features and advantages of the object of the present invention will be further described with reference to the embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Detailed implementation manners

[0045] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0046] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of an air conditioner which is the hardware operating environment involved in the solution of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0047] As Figure 1 shown, the air conditioner may include: a processor 1001, such as a central processing unit (CPU), a communication bus 1002, a user interface 1003, a network interface 1004, and a memory 1005. Among them, the communication bus 1002 is used to realize the connection and communication between these components. The user interface 1003 may include a display screen (Display), an input unit such as a keyboard (Keyboard). Optionally, the user interface 1003 may further include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface. The network interface 1004 may optionally include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface (such as a wireless fidelity (WI-FI) interface). The memory 1005 may be a high-speed random access memory (Random Access Memory, RAM) or a stable non-volatile memory (Non-Volatile Memory, NVM), such as a disk memory. Optionally, the memory 1005 may also be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.

[0048] Those skilled in the art can understand, Figure 1The structure shown does not constitute a limitation on the air conditioner, and it may include more or fewer components than shown, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0049] As Figure 1 shown, the memory 1005, as a storage medium, may include an operating system, a network communication module, a user interface module, and an aroma release control program.

[0050] In Figure 1 the air conditioner shown, the network interface 1004 is mainly used for data communication with a network server; the user interface 1003 is mainly used for data interaction with a user; the processor 1001 and the memory 1005 in the air conditioner of the present invention may be arranged in the air conditioner. The air conditioner calls the aroma release control program stored in the memory 1005 through the processor 1001 and executes the aroma release control method provided by the embodiments of the present invention.

[0051] Embodiments of the present invention provide an aroma release control method. Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a schematic flowchart of the first embodiment of an aroma release control method of the present invention.

[0052] In this embodiment, the aroma release control method includes the following steps:

[0053] Step S10: When the intelligent aroma function of the air conditioner is turned on, obtain the operating air volume gear.

[0054] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment is the air conditioner. The processor and the memory in the air conditioner may be arranged in the air conditioner, and this embodiment does not limit this. The air conditioner has an intelligent aroma function. Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the installation position of the aroma generating device in the air conditioner in an embodiment of the present invention. Among them, the air conditioner may be equipped with an aroma generating device composed of an odor hole and an odor module. The aroma generating device may be located at a suitable position in the air conditioner. This embodiment does not limit the specific position of the aroma generating device in the air conditioner.

[0055] Specifically, the size of the air volume during the operation of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner directly affect the diffusion speed and dilution multiple of the fragrance released by the fragrance generating device. Under different air volumes of the air conditioner, the actual experience effect of the user on the fragrance is affected. Therefore, when the intelligent fragrance function of the air conditioner is turned on, the way to obtain the size of the air volume during the operation of the air conditioner is to obtain the operating air volume gear, and detect the operating air volume of the air conditioner through the operating air volume gear. For example, the operating air volume gear can be gear 1, gear 2, gear 3, gear 4, and gear 5. The higher the gear number of the operating air volume gear, the larger the air volume and the faster the wind speed of the air conditioner. The specific operating air volume gear can be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0056] Step S20: Determine the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship.

[0057] It is easy to understand that the preset fragrance mapping relationship can be the mapping relationship between the operating air volume gear and the released fragrance concentration established in advance. It can be understood that the larger the air volume of the air conditioner and the faster the wind speed, the greater the dilution multiple of the fragrance released by the fragrance generating device, and the farther the released fragrance is blown and spread. At this time, it is necessary to increase the fragrance concentration and duration released by the fragrance generating device. On the contrary, the smaller the air volume, the lower the fragrance concentration and duration released by the fragrance generating device need to be reduced.

[0058] Specifically, when determining the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, it can be implemented in various ways. Here, one way is taken as an example to illustrate. For example, the operating air volume gear can be gear 1, gear 2, gear 3, gear 4, and gear 5. Among them, the higher the gear number of the operating air volume gear, the larger the air volume and the faster the wind speed of the air conditioner. The released fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be low gear, medium-low gear, medium gear, medium-high gear, and high gear. Among them, the higher the gear of the released fragrance concentration, the higher the fragrance concentration and the longer the duration released by the fragrance generating device. According to the operating air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined to be medium-high gear. Of course, at least one way can also be used to determine the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device. In addition, the specific operating air volume gear, released fragrance concentration, and preset fragrance mapping relationship can also be set in other ways according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0059] Step S30: Obtain the swing mode of the air conditioner, and determine the target fragrance concentration according to the swing mode and the current fragrance concentration.

[0060] It should be noted that determining the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship means that the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner can be detected, and the optimal fragrance concentration can be selected and released according to the operating air volume gear, but the fragrance concentration cannot be adjusted or the fragrance concentration gear is fixed. For example, according to the operating air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, it can be determined that the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device is medium-high gear, then the fragrance generating device maintains the current fragrance concentration at medium-high gear for release, and cannot automatically adjust the fragrance concentration according to actual use needs. Therefore, the optimal fragrance concentration and release logic can be adjusted and released by combining the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner with the swing mode of the air conditioner, that is, the swing mode of the air conditioner is obtained, and the target fragrance concentration is determined according to the swing mode and the current fragrance concentration.

[0061] Specifically, the air-swinging mode of the air conditioner may include an up-and-down swinging mode, a left-and-right swinging mode, and a no-wind mode. In addition, the air-swinging mode of the air conditioner may also be set to a number of swinging modes according to actual needs, which is not limited in this embodiment. The target fragrance concentration is determined according to the swinging mode and the current fragrance concentration. For example, according to the 4 operating air volume gears and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device may be determined to be a medium-high gear, and the obtained air-swinging mode of the air conditioner is an up-and-down swinging mode. Due to the upward volatility of the fragrance gas, when the air is swung upward, according to the up-and-down swinging mode and the current fragrance concentration medium-high gear, it is determined that the fragrance release concentration should be reduced. Then, the target fragrance concentration may be determined to be a low gear, or the intelligent fragrance function of the air conditioner may be turned off to avoid wasting fragrance from the fragrance generating device.

[0062] Step S40: determining the opening degree corresponding to the target fragrance concentration, and controlling the operation of the fragrance generating device according to the opening degree.

[0063] It should be understood that by combining the air volume gear of the air conditioner with the swing mode of the air conditioner, the optimal fragrance concentration and release logic are adjusted and released automatically, that is, the swing mode of the air conditioner is obtained, the target fragrance concentration is determined according to the swing mode and the current fragrance concentration, the opening corresponding to the target fragrance concentration is determined, and the operation of the fragrance generating device is controlled according to the opening. For example, according to the 4 gears of the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, it can be determined that the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device is a medium-high gear, and the swing mode of the air conditioner obtained is an up-and-down swing mode. According to the up-and-down swing mode and the current fragrance concentration medium-high gear, it is determined that the fragrance release concentration should be reduced, then the target fragrance concentration can be determined to be a low gear, the opening of the solenoid valve in the fragrance generating device corresponding to the low gear of the target fragrance concentration is determined, and the operation of the fragrance generating device is controlled according to the opening of the solenoid valve to achieve the release of the fragrance concentration corresponding to the low gear.

[0064] Specifically, refer toFigure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic structural diagram of an aroma generating device in an embodiment of the present invention. The aroma generating device may include a heating air pump (1), an intake electromagnetic valve (2), an odor box (3), an outlet electromagnetic valve (4), and other pipeline parts. Among them, the odor box (3) contains slow-release particles (5). The operation process of the aroma generating device may be that air is heated by the heating air pump (1) and then transmitted to the odor box (3) through the intake electromagnetic valve (2) and the intake pipeline. The slow-release particles (5) in the odor box (3) are excited by the heated air to generate fragrance, which is output through the outlet electromagnetic valve (4) and the outlet pipeline. In this embodiment, the opening degree of the electromagnetic valve in the aroma generating device corresponding to the target fragrance concentration can be determined, and the operation of the aroma generating device can be controlled according to the opening degree of the electromagnetic valve. The fragrance concentration output by the aroma generating device can be controlled by controlling the opening degree of the intake electromagnetic valve (2), or the fragrance concentration output by the aroma generating device can be controlled by the opening degree of the outlet electromagnetic valve (4), or the fragrance concentration output by the aroma generating device can be controlled by the opening degrees of both the intake electromagnetic valve (2) and the outlet electromagnetic valve (4). In addition, the specific opening degree control method can be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0065] It is easy to understand that the operating air volume of the air conditioner can change. In order to provide a better fragrance experience for users, after determining the opening degree corresponding to the target fragrance concentration and controlling the operation of the aroma generating device according to the opening degree, after a preset time, the step of obtaining the operating air volume gear can be returned to and executed; continue to execute the step of determining the current fragrance concentration of the aroma generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship; continue to execute the step of obtaining the swing mode of the air conditioner and determining the target fragrance concentration according to the swing mode and the current fragrance concentration; continue to execute the step of determining the opening degree corresponding to the target fragrance concentration and controlling the operation of the aroma generating device according to the opening degree. Among them, the preset time can be 5 minutes, and the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner can be obtained every 5 minutes. In addition, the length of the preset time can also be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0066] In this embodiment, when the intelligent aromatherapy function of the air conditioner is turned on, the operating air volume gear is obtained; the current aromatherapy concentration of the aromatherapy generating device is determined according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship; the swing mode of the air conditioner is obtained, and the target aromatherapy concentration is determined according to the swing mode and the current aromatherapy concentration; the opening degree corresponding to the target aromatherapy concentration is determined, and the aromatherapy generating device is controlled to operate according to the opening degree. In this embodiment, compared with the existing situation where the aromatherapy concentration cannot be adjusted or the aromatherapy concentration gear is fixed and cannot be automatically adjusted according to actual usage requirements, this embodiment intelligently and automatically adjusts the aromatherapy release concentration in combination with the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner releases the optimal aromatherapy concentration, giving users a good aromatherapy experience, and solving the technical problem that the existing aromatherapy concentration gear is fixed and cannot meet the actual usage requirements.

[0067] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 5 is a schematic flowchart of the second embodiment of an aromatherapy release control method of the present invention. Based on the above first embodiment, in step S30 of the aromatherapy release control method of this embodiment, it specifically includes:

[0068] Step S301: Obtain the swing mode of the air conditioner, and determine whether the swing mode is an up-and-down swing mode.

[0069] It should be noted that in this embodiment, by combining the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner, the optimal aromatherapy concentration and release logic are adjusted and released by itself, that is, the swing mode of the air conditioner is obtained, and the target aromatherapy concentration is determined according to the swing mode and the current aromatherapy concentration. The swing mode of the air conditioner can include an up-and-down swing mode, a left-and-right swing mode, and a no-wind-sensation mode. Among them, the up-and-down swing mode can include an up-and-down mode and an up-and-down-and-left-and-right mode. The up-and-down-and-left-and-right mode can be that the up-and-down swing and the left-and-right swing are alternated, that is, the up-and-down swing is performed for a certain period of time and the left-and-right swing is performed for a certain period of time. In addition, the swing mode of the air conditioner can also be set with several swing modes according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0070] Specifically, obtaining the swing mode of the air conditioner and determining whether the swing mode is an up-and-down swing mode can be: obtaining the swing mode of the air conditioner and determining whether the swing mode is an up-and-down-up-and-down mode or an up-and-down-and-left-and-right mode. When the swing mode is in the up-and-down mode or the up-and-down-and-left-and-right mode, the aromatherapy concentration needs to be adjusted according to the windshield direction, that is, the target aromatherapy concentration is determined according to the windshield direction and the current aromatherapy concentration.

[0071] Step S302: When the swing mode is in the up-and-down swing mode, obtain the windshield direction of the air conditioner.

[0072] It is easy to understand that the up-and-down air swing mode may include the up-and-down mode and the up-and-down-and-left-and-right mode. When the air swing mode is in the up-and-down air swing mode, obtaining the air deflector direction of the air conditioner may be as follows: when the air swing mode is in the up-and-down mode or the up-and-down-and-left-and-right mode, it is necessary to adjust the fragrance concentration according to the air deflector direction, that is, to determine the target fragrance concentration according to the air deflector direction and the current fragrance concentration, and then obtain the air deflector direction of the air conditioner.

[0073] Step S303: Determine the target fragrance concentration according to the air deflector direction and the current fragrance concentration.

[0074] It should be noted that determining the target fragrance concentration according to the air deflector direction and the current fragrance concentration may be as follows: determine whether the air deflector direction is the upward direction; when the air deflector direction is the upward direction, reduce the current fragrance concentration to obtain the target fragrance concentration.

[0075] In addition, when the air deflector direction is the upward direction, the intelligent fragrance diffuser function may also be turned off. After turning off the intelligent fragrance diffuser function, return to execute the step of determining whether the air deflector direction is the upward direction.

[0076] Specifically, determine the target fragrance concentration according to the air deflector direction and the current fragrance concentration. For example, according to the operation air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined to be medium-high gear. The obtained air swing mode of the air conditioner is the up-and-down air swing mode, and the air deflector direction is the upward direction. Due to the upward volatility of the fragrance gas, when swinging upward, according to the upward air deflector direction and the medium-high current fragrance concentration, it is determined that the fragrance release concentration should be reduced, so the target fragrance concentration can be determined to be low gear, or the intelligent fragrance diffuser function of the air conditioner should be turned off to avoid wasting the fragrance of the fragrance generating device.

[0077] It is easy to understand that when the air deflector direction is the downward direction, increase the current fragrance concentration to obtain the target fragrance concentration. For example, according to the operation air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined to be medium-high gear. The obtained air swing mode of the air conditioner is the up-and-down air swing mode, and the air deflector direction is the downward direction. Due to the upward volatility of the fragrance gas, when swinging upward, the fragrance release concentration should be reduced or the intelligent fragrance diffuser function should be turned off to avoid wasting the fragrance. When swinging downward, the current fragrance concentration should be increased for fragrance release. When swinging downward, according to the downward air deflector direction and the medium-high current fragrance concentration, it is determined that the fragrance release concentration should be increased, so the target fragrance concentration can be determined to be high gear to increase the current fragrance concentration for fragrance release.

[0078] In this embodiment, the swing mode of the air conditioner is obtained, and it is determined whether the swing mode is the up-and-down swing mode; when the swing mode is in the up-and-down swing mode, the direction of the wind deflector of the air conditioner is obtained; and the target fragrance concentration is determined according to the direction of the wind deflector and the current fragrance concentration. In this embodiment, compared with the prior art in which the fragrance concentration cannot be adjusted or the fragrance concentration levels are fixed and cannot be automatically adjusted according to actual usage requirements, this embodiment intelligently and automatically adjusts the fragrance release concentration in combination with the operating air volume level of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner releases the optimal fragrance concentration, providing a good fragrance experience for the user, and solving the technical problem that the existing fragrance concentration levels are fixed and cannot meet the actual usage requirements.

[0079] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 is a schematic flowchart of the third embodiment of a method for controlling fragrance release according to the present invention. Based on the above first and second embodiments, after the step S301 in the fragrance release control method of this embodiment, it further includes:

[0080] Step S302': When the swing mode is not in the up-and-down swing mode, it is determined whether the swing mode is the windless feeling mode.

[0081] It should be noted that the swing mode of the air conditioner may include the up-and-down swing mode, the left-and-right swing mode, and the windless feeling mode. In addition, the swing mode of the air conditioner may be set with several swing modes according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this. When the swing mode is not in the up-and-down swing mode, the swing mode of the air conditioner may be the left-and-right swing mode or the windless feeling mode, and it is determined whether the swing mode is the windless feeling mode. In addition, when the swing mode is not in the up-and-down swing mode, it may first be determined whether the swing mode is the left-and-right swing mode, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0082] Step S303': When the swing mode is in the windless feeling mode, increase the current fragrance concentration to obtain the target fragrance concentration.

[0083] It is easy to understand that when the swing mode of the air conditioner is the windless feeling mode, the wind deflector is closed and the wind speed is small in this windless feeling mode, and the current fragrance concentration should be increased for fragrance release. For example, according to the operating air volume level 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined to be medium-high. The obtained swing mode of the air conditioner is the windless feeling mode. When the swing mode of the air conditioner is the windless feeling mode, the current fragrance concentration should be increased for fragrance release. According to the windless feeling mode and the current fragrance concentration of medium-high, it is determined that the fragrance release concentration should be increased, and then the target fragrance concentration can be determined to be high to increase the current fragrance concentration for fragrance release.

[0084] It should be noted that when the swing mode is not in the no-wind-sensation mode, the swing mode of the air conditioner is the left-right swing mode. In the left-right swing mode, the fragrance is released according to the current fragrance concentration, and the current fragrance concentration can be used as the target fragrance concentration.

[0085] In this embodiment, when the swing mode is not in the up-down swing mode, it is determined whether the swing mode is the no-wind-sensation mode; when the swing mode is in the no-wind-sensation mode, the current fragrance concentration is increased to obtain the target fragrance concentration. In this embodiment, compared with the existing situation where the fragrance concentration cannot be adjusted or the fragrance concentration levels are fixed and cannot be automatically adjusted according to actual usage requirements, this embodiment intelligently and automatically adjusts the fragrance release concentration in combination with the operating air volume level of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner releases the optimal fragrance concentration, giving users a good fragrance experience, and solving the technical problem that the existing fragrance concentration levels are fixed and cannot meet actual usage requirements.

[0086] In addition, an embodiment of the present invention also proposes a computer-readable storage medium, on which a fragrance release control program is stored, and the fragrance release control program is executed by a processor to perform the steps of the fragrance release control method as described above.

[0087] Since this computer-readable storage medium adopts all the technical solutions of the above-mentioned all embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, and will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0088] Refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 , which is the structural block diagram of the first embodiment of the fragrance release control device of the present invention.

[0089] As Figure 7 shown, the fragrance release control device of the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0090] An acquisition module 10, configured to acquire the operating air volume level when the intelligent fragrance function of the air conditioner is turned on.

[0091] It should be noted that the size of the air volume during the operation of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner directly affect the diffusion speed and dilution multiple of the fragrance released by the fragrance generating device. Under different air volumes of the air conditioner, the actual experience effect of the fragrance by the user is affected. Therefore, when the intelligent fragrance function of the air conditioner is turned on, the way to acquire the size of the air volume during the operation of the air conditioner is to acquire the operating air volume level, and the operating air volume of the air conditioner is detected through the operating air volume level. For example, the operating air volume level can be gear 1, gear 2, gear 3, gear 4, and gear 5. The higher the gear number of the operating air volume level, the greater the air volume and the faster the wind speed of the air conditioner. The specific operating air volume level can be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0092] A determination module 20, configured to determine the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship.

[0093] It is easy to understand that the preset fragrance mapping relationship can be a mapping relationship between the operating air volume gear and the released fragrance concentration established in advance. It can be understood that the larger the air volume of the air conditioner and the faster the wind speed, the greater the dilution multiple of the fragrance released by the fragrance generating device, and the farther the released fragrance is blown and spread. At this time, it is necessary to increase the fragrance concentration and duration released by the fragrance generating device. Conversely, the smaller the air volume, the lower the fragrance concentration and duration released by the fragrance generating device need to be reduced.

[0094] Specifically, when determining the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, it can be implemented in various ways. Here, one way is taken as an example to illustrate. For example, the operating air volume gear can be gear 1, gear 2, gear 3, gear 4, and gear 5. Among them, the higher the gear number of the operating air volume gear, the larger the air volume and the faster the wind speed of the air conditioner. The released fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be low gear, medium-low gear, medium gear, medium-high gear, and high gear. Among them, the higher the gear of the released fragrance concentration, the higher the fragrance concentration and the longer the duration released by the fragrance generating device. According to the operating air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined to be medium-high gear. Of course, at least one way can also be used to determine the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device. In addition, the specific operating air volume gear, released fragrance concentration, and preset fragrance mapping relationship can also be set in other ways according to actual needs. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0095] An adjustment module 30, configured to obtain the swing mode of the air conditioner, and determine the target fragrance concentration according to the swing mode and the current fragrance concentration.

[0096] It should be noted that determining the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship means that the optimal fragrance concentration can be selected and released by detecting the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner. However, this fragrance concentration cannot be adjusted or the fragrance concentration gear is fixed. For example, according to the operating air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined to be medium-high gear, then the fragrance generating device releases the fragrance with the current fragrance concentration of medium-high gear and cannot automatically adjust the fragrance concentration according to actual usage requirements. Therefore, by combining the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner, the optimal fragrance concentration and release logic can be adjusted and released by itself, that is, obtaining the swing mode of the air conditioner and determining the target fragrance concentration according to the swing mode and the current fragrance concentration.

[0097] Specifically, the air swing mode of the air conditioner may include an up-and-down air swing mode, a left-and-right air swing mode, and a draft-free mode. In addition, the air swing mode of the air conditioner may be set with several air swing modes according to actual needs, which is not limited in this embodiment. Determine the target fragrance concentration according to the air swing mode and the current fragrance concentration. For example, according to the operating air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined as medium-high gear, and the obtained air swing mode of the air conditioner is the up-and-down air swing mode. Due to the upward volatility of the fragrance gas, when swinging upward, according to the up-and-down air swing mode and the current fragrance concentration of medium-high gear, it is determined that the fragrance release concentration should be reduced, then the target fragrance concentration can be determined as low gear, or the intelligent fragrance function of the air conditioner should be turned off to avoid wasting the fragrance of the fragrance generating device.

[0098] The operation module 40 is used to determine the opening degree corresponding to the target fragrance concentration and control the operation of the fragrance generating device according to the opening degree.

[0099] It should be understood that by combining the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner with the air swing mode of the air conditioner, the optimal fragrance concentration and release logic are adjusted and released by itself, that is, obtain the air swing mode of the air conditioner, determine the target fragrance concentration according to the air swing mode and the current fragrance concentration, determine the opening degree corresponding to the target fragrance concentration, and control the operation of the fragrance generating device according to the opening degree. For example, according to the operating air volume gear 4 and the preset fragrance mapping relationship, the current fragrance concentration of the fragrance generating device can be determined as medium-high gear, and the obtained air swing mode of the air conditioner is the up-and-down air swing mode. According to the up-and-down air swing mode and the current fragrance concentration of medium-high gear, it is determined that the fragrance release concentration should be reduced, then the target fragrance concentration can be determined as low gear, determine the opening degree of the solenoid valve in the fragrance generating device corresponding to the low gear of the target fragrance concentration, and control the operation of the fragrance generating device according to the opening degree of the solenoid valve to achieve the release of the fragrance concentration corresponding to the low gear.

[0100] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4FIG. 0 is a schematic structural diagram of an aromatherapy generating device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The aromatherapy generating device may include a heating air pump (1), an intake electromagnetic valve (2), an odor box (3), an outlet electromagnetic valve (4), and the rest of the pipeline parts. Among them, the odor box (3) contains slow-release particles (5). The operation process of the aromatherapy generating device may be that air is heated by the heating air pump (1) and then transmitted to the odor box (3) through the intake electromagnetic valve (2) and the intake pipeline. The slow-release particles (5) in the odor box (3) are excited by the heated air to generate fragrance, which is output through the outlet electromagnetic valve (4) and the outlet pipeline. In this embodiment, the opening degree of the electromagnetic valve in the aromatherapy generating device corresponding to the target fragrance concentration can be determined, and the operation of the aromatherapy generating device can be controlled according to the opening degree of the electromagnetic valve. The fragrance concentration output by the aromatherapy generating device can be controlled by controlling the opening degree of the intake electromagnetic valve (2), or the fragrance concentration output by the aromatherapy generating device can be controlled by the opening degree of the outlet electromagnetic valve (4), or the fragrance concentration output by the aromatherapy generating device can be controlled by the opening degrees of both the intake electromagnetic valve (2) and the outlet electromagnetic valve (4). In addition, the specific opening degree control method can be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0101] It is easy to understand that the operating air volume of the air conditioner can change. In order to provide a better fragrance experience for users, after determining the opening degree corresponding to the target fragrance concentration and controlling the operation of the aromatherapy generating device according to the opening degree, after a preset time, the step of obtaining the operating air volume gear is returned to be executed; the step of determining the current fragrance concentration of the aromatherapy generating device according to the operating air volume gear and the preset fragrance mapping relationship is continued to be executed; the step of obtaining the swing mode of the air conditioner, and determining the target fragrance concentration according to the swing mode and the current fragrance concentration is continued to be executed; the step of determining the opening degree corresponding to the target fragrance concentration and controlling the operation of the aromatherapy generating device according to the opening degree is continued to be executed. Among them, the preset time can be 5 minutes, and the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner can be obtained every 5 minutes. In addition, the length of the preset time can also be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0102] In this embodiment, the aroma release control device includes: an acquisition module 10, configured to acquire the operating air volume gear when the intelligent aroma function of the air conditioner is turned on; a determination module 20, configured to determine the current aroma concentration of the aroma generating device according to the operating air volume gear and a preset aroma mapping relationship; an adjustment module 30, configured to acquire the swing mode of the air conditioner, and determine a target aroma concentration according to the swing mode and the current aroma concentration; and an operation module 40, configured to determine the opening degree corresponding to the target aroma concentration, and control the operation of the aroma generating device according to the opening degree. In this embodiment, compared with the prior art where the aroma concentration cannot be adjusted or the aroma concentration gears are fixed and cannot be automatically adjusted according to actual usage requirements, this embodiment intelligently and automatically adjusts the aroma release concentration in combination with the operating air volume gear of the air conditioner and the swing mode of the air conditioner, so as to enable the air conditioner to release the optimal aroma concentration and provide a good aroma experience for the user, solving the technical problem that the existing aroma concentration gears are fixed and cannot meet the actual usage requirements.

[0103] In one embodiment, the adjustment module 30 is further configured to acquire the swing mode of the air conditioner and determine whether the swing mode is an up-and-down swing mode;

[0104] When the swing mode is in the up-and-down swing mode, acquire the direction of the wind deflector of the air conditioner;

[0106] In one embodiment, the adjustment module 30 is further configured to determine whether the direction of the wind deflector is an upward direction;

[0107] When the direction of the wind deflector is an upward direction, reduce the current aroma concentration to obtain the target aroma concentration.
