[0107] The purpose, features and advantages of the present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0108] It should be noted that if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or suggesting their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features specified as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the meaning of "and / or" appearing throughout the text is to include three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes Solution A, Solution B, or solutions that meet both A and B.

[0109] The present invention provides an air conditioner indoor unit, which can be wall-mounted or floor-standing. The following description uses a floor-standing indoor unit as an example. This indoor unit can relay the heat exchange airflow from the main unit to a target location through a slave unit, thereby achieving flexible air delivery throughout the entire house, extending the air supply distance and coverage of the entire air conditioner.

[0110] In the embodiment of the present invention, Figures 14 to 18 、 Figures 21 to 23As shown, the air-conditioning indoor unit includes a main unit 100 and a sub-unit 200; the main unit 100 includes an indoor heat exchange module; the sub-unit 200 can be detachably installed on the main unit 100, and the sub-unit 200 includes a shell 240, a first fan 221 and a second fan 230. The shell 240 is provided with a sub-air inlet 241, a sub-air outlet 210, and a sub-unit air duct 250 connecting the sub-air inlet 241 and the sub-air outlet 210. The second fan 230 is arranged in the sub-unit air duct 250. The second fan 230 is used to drive the air flow from the sub-air inlet 241 into the sub-unit air duct 250 and blow it toward the first fan 221. The first fan 221 is used to drive the air flow in the sub-unit air duct 250 to be blown out through the sub-air outlet 210.

[0111] In this embodiment, the overall shape of the main unit 100 and the sub-unit 200 can be cylindrical, elliptical, square, or other shapes. The shapes of the main unit 100 and the sub-unit 200 can be the same or different. The specific selection and design can be based on actual usage requirements and are not limited here. The main unit 100 extends in an overall vertical direction. The main unit 100 and the sub-unit 200 can have a uniform cross-section or a variable cross-section in the vertical direction. The main unit 100 is provided with a main air outlet, a main air inlet, and a heat exchange duct connecting the main air outlet and the main air inlet. The indoor heat exchange module is installed in the heat exchange duct and is used to exchange heat with the air flowing through the heat exchange duct to achieve cooling or heating. The indoor heat exchange module can have only cooling functions or both cooling and heating functions. The indoor heat exchange module includes a heat exchanger and a heat exchange fan. The heat exchange fan drives air from the main air inlet into the heat exchange duct, and after heat exchange in the heat exchanger, it is blown out of the main air outlet, thereby achieving indoor cooling or heating. Other specific structures of the air conditioner indoor unit can refer to existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0112] If the sub-unit 200 is detachably mounted on the main unit 100, the sub-unit 200 can be connected to the interior of the main unit 100, such as by providing a receiving cavity within the main unit 100 so that the sub-unit 200 is installed within the receiving cavity. In this case, the receiving cavity can be located at the top, middle, or bottom of the main unit 100. The sub-unit 200 can also be connected to the exterior of the main unit 100, such as by being spliced ​​to the bottom, top, or side surface of the main unit 100. The connection between the sub-unit 200 and the main unit 100 can be a structural connection, such as through a snap-on connection, a magnetic connection, or a plug-in connection. The connection between the sub-unit 200 and the main unit 100 can also be a simple channel connection, such as connecting the sub-unit air duct 250 of the sub-unit 200 to an air duct within the main unit 100, such as the fresh air duct or heat exchange duct of the main unit 100. It is understood that the sub-unit 200 can be separated from the main unit 100 by manual disassembly by the user, or the sub-unit 200 can be automatically separated from the main unit 100 by a control device without manual operation by the user. When the slave unit 200 is separated from the main unit 100, it can autonomously circulate and operate independently within the room to meet the air treatment needs of the entire room and ensure uniform air supply throughout the space. The user can also manually move the slave unit 200 to a desired location in the room, or autonomously move it to a specific location, such as a crowded area. This allows for targeted air supply to a specific area, achieving long-range, targeted, and directional air supply, and improving air treatment efficiency. Compared to moving the entire indoor air conditioner, the movement of the slave unit 200 is more flexible and convenient, meeting the user's diverse needs. Furthermore, when the slave unit 200 is installed outside the main unit 100, it can relay the airflow from the main air outlet of the main unit 100, thereby extending the heat exchange airflow to a greater distance and wider range, and enabling targeted and directional air supply, significantly improving user comfort.

[0113] It is understood that the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 are arranged sequentially in the direction of the air outlet of the sub-unit air duct 250. The second fan 230 is installed in the sub-unit air duct 250, and the first fan 221 can be installed in the sub-unit air duct 250 or at the sub-air outlet 210. The second fan 230 can then drive the airflow from the sub-air inlet 241 into the sub-unit air duct 250 and send air toward the first fan 221. The first fan 221 can relay the airflow blown out by the first fan 221 so that the airflow is blown out through the sub-air outlet 210. The first fan 221 and the second fan 230 can specifically be axial flow fans, centrifugal fans, cross-flow fans, etc. The first fan 221 and the second fan 230 can be the same or different types. It is understood that the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 can be turned on simultaneously or one of them can be turned on alternately. The user can select different air supply modes according to usage requirements, and then choose whether to turn on the first fan 221 and the second fan 230.

[0114] The air conditioning indoor unit of the present invention allows the sub-unit 200 to be detachably mounted on the main unit 100, and allows the sub-unit 200 to operate independently from the main unit 100. While ensuring rapid heat exchange throughout the entire room, the sub-unit 200 can be separated from the main unit 100 to achieve mobile air supply throughout the room, etc., and the air supply demand of a certain area or the entire area in the room can be flexibly adjusted through the sub-unit 200, thereby making the entire air conditioning indoor unit highly flexible and able to meet the different air supply needs of users. In addition, the sub-unit 200 can relay the heat exchange airflow blown out by the main unit 100 to achieve long-distance, multi-directional and fixed-point directional air supply. At the same time, while allowing the air conditioning indoor unit to provide multi-directional, long-distance and whole-room air supply, the sub-unit 200 is installed on the main unit 100, thereby realizing the storage and integration of multiple machines, saving room space and improving space utilization. In addition, by providing the sub-machine 200 with a first fan 221 and a second fan 230, the air supply volume, air supply distance and air supply range of the sub-machine 200 can be greatly improved compared to only providing a single fan in the sub-machine 200, thereby achieving a longer air supply distance and better air supply effect for the relay air supply to the main machine 100.

[0115] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 17 、 Figure 18 、 Figure 21 and Figure 22 The first fan 221 can be movably installed at the sub-air outlet 210 to adjust the air outlet direction and / or air outlet height of the sub-air outlet 210.

[0116] In this embodiment, the first fan 221 can be installed at the sub-air outlet 210 in a reversible, liftable, and rotatable manner to adjust the air outlet direction and / or air outlet height of the sub-air outlet 210. When the first fan 221 can adjust the air outlet direction of the sub-air outlet 210, the first fan 221 can be installed at the sub-air outlet 210 in a reversible manner so that the air outlet direction of the first fan 221 can be set at an angle to the air outlet direction of the sub-air outlet 210, and the air inlet end of the first fan 221 is set toward the sub-air outlet 210. In this way, the second fan 230 drives the airflow from the sub-air inlet 241 into the sub-machine air duct 250, blown out from the sub-air outlet 210, and then into the first fan 221 and blown out through the first fan 221. The first fan 221 can then change the direction of the airflow blown out of the sub-air outlet 210, and make the airflow blow further, with a larger air volume and a wider air supply range. When the first fan 221 can adjust the air outlet height of the sub-air outlet 210, the first fan 221 can be installed at the sub-air outlet 210 so that it can be raised or lowered or flipped upside down. The second fan 230 then drives the airflow to be blown out of the sub-air outlet 210, and then the first fan 221 relays the airflow blown out of the sub-air outlet 210, changing the air outlet height of the airflow blown out of the sub-air outlet 210, thereby meeting the user's needs for different air outlet heights and increasing the air supply angle and air supply range.

[0117] Furthermore, if Figure 17 、 Figure 18 、 Figure 21 and Figure 22 As shown, the sub-machine 200 also includes a mounting shell 220, and the first fan 221 is installed in the mounting shell 220. The mounting shell 220 can be flipped and installed at the sub-air outlet 210 to have a first position covering the sub-air outlet 210 and a second position set at an angle to the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located.

[0118] In this embodiment, the mounting shell 220 can be specifically configured in a cylindrical shape, with the overall shape of the mounting shell 220 being compatible with the shape of the sub-air outlet 210. Typically, the sub-air outlet 210 is configured in a circular shape, and the cross-section of the mounting shell 220 is also configured in a circular shape. The mounting shell 220, on the one hand, provides mounting and support for the first fan 221, and on the other hand, can guide the airflow of the first fan 221, thereby making the airflow blown by the first fan 221 more concentrated and delivering air over a longer distance. The mounting shell 220 is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet, and the first fan 221 is used to drive the airflow within the mounting shell 220 from the air inlet to the air outlet. To protect the first fan 221, a grille structure can be provided at both the air inlet and the air outlet. By allowing the mounting shell 220 to be reversibly mounted on the sub-air outlet 210, the mounting shell 220 can drive the first fan 221 to rotate together.

[0119] It is understandable that when the mounting shell 220 covers the sub-air outlet 210, the axis of the mounting shell 220 is parallel to or coincides with the axis of the sub-air outlet 210. By making the mounting shell 220 reversibly installed at the sub-air outlet 210, the axis of the mounting shell 220 and the axis of the sub-air outlet 210 can be set at an angle. For example, the mounting shell 220 is flipped as a whole toward the outside of the sub-air outlet 210. Define the cross section of the mounting shell 220 parallel to the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located when the mounting shell 220 is in the first position as the mounting surface of the mounting shell 220. Then, when the mounting shell 220 is flipped to the second position, the mounting shell 220 is set at an angle to the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located, that is, the mounting surface of the mounting shell 220 is set at an angle to the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located. The angle between the mounting surface of the mounting shell 220 and the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located can be 0 degrees to 180 degrees. Optionally, the angle between the mounting surface of the mounting shell 220 and the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located can be 30 degrees to 80 degrees. This facilitates the drive mechanism to adjust the overall angle of the mounting shell 220 and meets the user's air supply needs at different angles.

[0120] When the sub-air outlet 210 is provided on the peripheral wall surface of the shell 240, the mounting shell 220 can be flipped up and down and / or left and right to drive the first fan 221 to adjust the up and down and left and right air outlet direction of the sub-air outlet 210. When the sub-air outlet 210 is provided on the top wall surface of the shell 240, the mounting shell 220 can be flipped up and down to drive the first fan 221 to adjust the up and down air outlet direction of the sub-air outlet 210. By making the mounting shell 220 flippable and mounted at the sub-air outlet 210, it has a first position covering the sub-air outlet 210 and a second position set at an angle to the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located. When the mounting shell 220 is in the first position, the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 both drive the airflow from the sub-air inlet 241 into the sub-machine air duct 250 and blow it out through the sub-air outlet 210. This significantly increases the air volume of the entire sub-unit 200, achieving efficient indoor air processing and powerful air delivery. When the mounting housing 220 is in the second position, the airflow from the second fan 230 is delivered to the first fan 221. Due to the negative pressure, some indoor air also enters the first fan 221 and is blown out by the first fan 221. The first fan 221 then changes the airflow direction of the sub-air outlet 210, meeting the user's air delivery needs at different angles and directions.

[0121] On the basis of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 18 、 Figure 22 and Figure 23 The sub-machine 200 further includes a driving device 260, which is connected to the mounting shell 220 to drive the mounting shell 220 to switch between the first position and the second position.

[0122] In this embodiment, the drive device 260 may specifically include a drive motor, and the output shaft of the drive motor is directly connected to the mounting shell 220 to drive the mounting shell to flip between the first position and the second position. Of course, in other embodiments, the drive device 260 may also include a drive motor and a gear, and an arc-shaped rack structure that meshes with the gear is provided on the mounting shell 220. The drive motor drives the gear to rotate to drive the arc-shaped rack structure to move, thereby achieving the switching of the first position and the second position of the mounting shell 220. There are many other structures for the drive device 260 to drive the mounting shell 220 to flip, which are not listed here one by one. It is understandable that the drive device 260 can switch the first position and the second position of the mounting shell 220 in real time, that is, after receiving the flip command, control the mounting shell 220 to continue to flip. Of course, after receiving the flip command, the drive device 260 can also only drive the mounting shell 220 to switch from the first position to the second position or from the second position to the first position. By using the driving device 260 to drive the mounting shell 220 to switch between the first position and the second position, compared with manually adjusting the first position and the second position of the mounting shell 220, it is more automated and intelligent, which can improve the user experience. In other embodiments, the first position and the second position of the mounting shell 220 can also be switched manually.

[0123] In one embodiment, if Figure 17 、 Figure 18 、 Figures 21 to 23 As shown, the cross-section of the housing 240 is rectangular, and the tilt axis of the mounting shell 220 is aligned with the diagonal extension direction of the cross-section of the housing 240. The rectangular cross-section of the housing 240 gives the housing 240 a square cabinet-like shape. To facilitate the overall tilting of the mounting shell 220 and the first fan 221, the cross-section of the mounting shell 220 and the shape of the sub-air outlet 210 are circular. The tilt axis of the mounting shell 220 is aligned with the diagonal extension direction of the cross-section of the housing 240. The two can be completely aligned or have an angle of no more than 5 degrees. By aligning the tilt axis of the mounting shell 220 with the diagonal extension direction of the cross-section of the housing 240, the space within the housing 240 can be maximized, allowing the size of the mounting shell 220 and the first fan 221 to be larger, further increasing the overall air supply volume and air supply distance of the sub-unit 200.

[0124] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 16 to 18 、 Figures 21 to 23 The sub-air outlet 210 is opened on the top wall of the shell 240. The sub-machine 200 also includes a lifting mechanism 222. The lifting mechanism 222 is installed on the shell 240. The lifting mechanism 222 is connected to the mounting shell 220 to drive the mounting shell 220 to switch between a raised position extending out of the sub-air outlet 210 and a lowered position accommodated in the sub-air outlet 210.

[0125] In this embodiment, when the mounting shell 220 is in the raised position extending beyond the sub-air outlet 210, the second fan 230 can drive the airflow within the sub-unit air duct 250 to be blown upward from the sub-air outlet 210. The airflow from the sub-air outlet 210 can be delivered to positions at different heights by the first fan 221, thereby meeting air supply requirements at different heights. Furthermore, due to the partial blocking effect of the mounting shell 220, the airflow from the sub-air outlet 210 is also discharged in all directions, thereby achieving a top-outlet and all-around-outlet mode for the sub-unit 200, increasing the air supply range and angle of the sub-unit 200, and meeting air processing and air supply requirements in different directions. Combined with the above-described embodiment in which the mounting shell 220 is reversibly mounted at the sub-air outlet 210, it has a first position covering the sub-air outlet 210 and a second position arranged at an angle to the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located. The mounting shell 220 can be flipped to the second position when in the raised position, thereby reducing the movement space inside the main body required for the mounting shell 220 when flipping, making the overall structure of the sub-machine 200 more compact, and at the same time increasing the air supply height to achieve air volume adjustment at different heights.

[0126] When the handset 200 is powered off, the mounting housing 220 can be placed in a lowered position within the handset air duct 250, thereby preventing dust accumulation on the mounting housing 220 and the first fan 221. This also reduces the overall footprint of the handset 200 and enhances its aesthetics. Furthermore, when the mounting housing 220 and the second fan 230 are in a lowered position, housed and hidden within the handset air duct 250, the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 can simultaneously deliver air upward, thereby increasing the airflow and improving the efficiency and effectiveness of air treatment while preventing airflow from directly hitting the user.

[0127] The lifting mechanism 222 is connected to the mounting housing 220 through a transmission mechanism, driving the mounting housing 220 to drive the first fan 221 to switch between the raised position and the lowered position. Compared to manually adjusting the raised and lowered positions of the mounting housing 220, this is more intelligent and can enhance the user experience. The lifting mechanism 222 can specifically include a drive motor, a gear, and a rack structure connected in a transmission manner. The drive motor is fixed to the housing 240, and the rack structure is connected to the mounting housing 220. The drive motor drives the gear to rotate, driving the rack structure to move up and down, thereby driving the entire mounting housing and the first fan 221 to move up and down, thereby achieving switching between the raised position and the lowered position.

[0128] Furthermore, if Figure 23As shown, the sub-unit 200 also includes a drive motor mounted on the lifting mechanism 222. The output shaft of the drive motor is connected to the mounting shell 220 to drive the mounting shell 220 to switch between the first position and the second position. By directly driving the mounting shell 220 to flip, the drive motor has a simpler structure and is easier to control than driving the mounting shell 220 to flip via other transmission structures. The drive motor can be specifically a stepper motor. A drive motor can be provided on opposite sides of the mounting shell 220 to synchronously drive the mounting shell 220 to flip between the first position and the second position, or only one drive motor can be provided to drive the mounting shell 220 to flip. By mounting the drive motor that drives the mounting shell 220 to flip on the lifting mechanism, on the one hand, the drive device 260 that drives the mounting shell 220 to lift and flip is integrated, making the overall structure more compact. On the other hand, the lifting mechanism 222 can drive the entire mounting shell 220, the first fan 221, and the drive motor to lift and lower together, thereby enabling the drive motor to drive the mounting shell 220 to flip in real time when the mounting shell 220 is in the raised position.

[0129] Based on the above embodiment with the lifting mechanism 222, please refer to Figures 16 to 18 、 Figures 21 to 23 Two lifting mechanisms 222 are provided, one on each side of the mounting shell 220. By providing a lifting mechanism 222 on each side of the mounting shell 220, the overall lifting and lowering motion of the mounting shell 220 is made smoother and more reliable. It will be appreciated that the two lifting mechanisms 222 move synchronously, thereby synchronously driving the mounting shell 220 to move up and down.

[0130] Figure 24 This is a simulated wind speed diagram of an embodiment of the present invention in which the mounting shell of the sub-unit 200 is reversibly mounted on the sub-air outlet 210, and is connected to the lifting mechanism 222 through the mounting shell 220. The horizontal axis of the simulated wind speed diagram represents the horizontal position, the vertical axis represents the height position, and the center of the wind tunnel is the position with the highest wind speed. The simulated wind speed diagram on the left shows the wind speed diagram of a certain area near the sub-unit 200 when the sub-unit 200 is not turned on, and the simulated wind speed diagram on the right shows the wind speed diagram of the area after the sub-unit 200 is turned on for a period of time. The simulated wind speed diagram shows that after the air-conditioning indoor unit adopts the embodiment of the present invention, it can adjust areas at different heights, and the wind speed and air volume in areas at different heights can be effectively improved.

[0131] In one embodiment, the housing 240 has a vertically extending rotation axis, and the housing 240 can rotate circumferentially around the rotation axis. Specifically, a universal wheel can be provided at the bottom of the housing 240, and the universal wheel can be used to achieve circumferential rotation of the entire sub-machine 200. Of course, the sub-machine 200 can also include a chassis, so that the housing 240 is mounted on the chassis so that it can rotate circumferentially. In other words, the chassis is stationary, and the housing 240 can rotate circumferentially relative to the chassis. In short, it is sufficient to allow the housing 240 to rotate circumferentially around its vertically extending rotation axis. By allowing the housing 240 to rotate circumferentially around the rotation axis of the vertically extending rotation axis, the entire sub-machine 200 can not only adjust the air outlet angle up and down, but also rotate 360 ​​degrees horizontally to discharge air, thereby greatly increasing the air supply range of the sub-machine 200 and meeting the user's usage requirements for different air supply angles.

[0132] Figure 25 This is a simulated wind speed diagram of an embodiment of the air-conditioning indoor unit of the present invention, in which the mounting shell 220 of the sub-unit 200 can be flipped and mounted on the sub-air outlet 210, is connected to the lifting mechanism 222 through the mounting shell 220, and the housing 240 can rotate circumferentially around a vertically extending rotation axis. The horizontal axis of the simulated wind speed diagram represents the horizontal position, the vertical axis represents the height position, and the center of the wind tunnel is the position with the highest wind speed. The simulated wind speed diagram on the left shows the wind speed diagram of a certain area near the sub-unit 200 when the sub-unit 200 is not turned on, and the simulated wind speed diagram on the right shows the wind speed diagram of the area after the sub-unit 200 is turned on for a period of time. The simulated wind speed diagram shows that after the air-conditioning indoor unit adopts the embodiment of the present invention, it can adjust areas at different heights and different positions in the circumferential direction, and the wind speed and air volume in areas at different heights and different positions in the circumferential direction can be effectively improved.

[0133] In one embodiment, if Figures 15 to 18 、 Figures 21 to 23 As shown, the sub-air inlet 241 is opened on the peripheral wall surface of the shell 240 , and the sub-air outlet 210 is opened on the top wall surface of the shell 240 .

[0134] In this embodiment, by providing the sub-air inlet 241 on the peripheral wall of the housing 240, the area of ​​the sub-air inlet 241 can be increased, thereby increasing the air intake into the sub-unit air duct 250. Specifically, the peripheral wall of the housing 240 is provided with a sub-air inlet 241, which can specifically be a plurality of micropores, which can be circular, elliptical, rectangular, triangular, etc. This can increase the air intake into the sub-unit air duct 250 and improve the air supply effect. By providing the sub-air outlet 210 on the top wall of the housing 240, the airflow blown out by the sub-air outlet 210 is directed upward, thereby meeting the user's need to avoid direct wind blowing on the body.

[0135] In conjunction with the above-described embodiment in which the mounting housing 220 is reversibly mounted at the sub-air outlet 210, when the mounting housing 220 is in the first position, the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 can simultaneously blow air upwards. This not only achieves high air volume and rapid air delivery, thereby improving the overall air treatment efficiency and effectiveness of the sub-unit 200, but also satisfies the user's need to avoid direct airflow, thereby achieving a windless mode for the air conditioner indoor unit. When the mounting housing 220 is adjusted from the first position to the second position, the air outlet direction of the sub-air outlet 210 can be adjusted. The airflow from the sub-air outlet 210 can be directed upwards and outwards, while the sub-unit 200 can concentrate the heat exchange airflow from the main air outlet of the main unit 100 at a specific location and deliver it over a long distance, thereby providing air treatment to the specific location. This, in turn, achieves a wind-mixed air mode for the air conditioner indoor unit, thereby meeting the diverse user needs.

[0136] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 18 The sub-machine air duct 250 includes a main air duct 251 and a humidification air duct 252 connected to the main air duct 251. The sub-machine 200 also includes a switch door for blocking and conducting the main air duct 251 and the humidification air duct 252. The first fan 221 and the second fan 230 are installed in the main air duct 251, and a humidification module 280 is provided in the humidification air duct 252.

[0137] In this embodiment, the humidification module 280 can specifically be a wet membrane assembly. The main air duct 251 and the humidification air duct 252 can be specifically connected through an air flow opening, and the switch door can be movably installed at the air flow opening to block and connect the main air duct 251 and the humidification air duct 252. The outflow of the humidified air flow can be achieved by connecting the sub-air outlet 210 to the humidification air duct 252, or by providing a humidification air outlet connected to the humidification air duct 252 on the housing 240. When the switch door connects the main air duct 251 and the humidification air duct 252, the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 drive the air flow into the main air duct 251, and part of the air flow flows into the humidification air duct 252, and is blown out from the sub-air outlet 210 and / or the humidification air outlet after being humidified by the humidification module 280. When the door is opened and closed, blocking the main air duct 251 and the humidification air duct 252, the air in the main air duct 251 does not flow through the humidification module 280 for humidification, but is blown directly out of the sub-air outlet 210. In this way, by providing the humidification air duct 252, the humidification mode of the slave unit 200 can be turned on and off by opening and closing the door, thereby achieving the humidification mode of the slave unit 200 being turned on and off, thereby meeting the user's humidification needs.

[0138] In one embodiment, if Figure 18As shown, the first fan 221 is an axial flow fan, and the second fan 230 is a centrifugal fan. By making the second fan 230 a centrifugal fan, the centrifugal fan can drive a sufficient amount of airflow from the sub-air inlet 241 into the sub-unit air duct 250, and blow it toward the first fan 221. By making the first fan 221 an axial flow fan, the airflow blown by the centrifugal fan can be quickly and evenly delivered through the sub-air outlet 210, thereby enhancing the air supply effect of the sub-unit 200, that is, greatly improving the overall air supply volume, air supply distance, and air supply range of the air conditioner indoor unit. Of course, the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 can be turned on simultaneously, or one can be turned on selectively, so that the sub-unit 200 has different air supply modes, and the user can select different air supply modes according to usage requirements. The first fan 221 can also be configured as a bladeless fan.

[0139] In one embodiment, an air treatment module is provided within the slave air duct 250 for treating the airflow entering the slave air duct 250 before blowing it out. The air treatment module may specifically be one or more of a purification module, a humidification module 280, a heating module, a dehumidification module, a fragrance module, and an allergen removal module. The humidification module 280 may specifically be a wet membrane assembly, the heating module may specifically be an electric heating assembly, and the purification module may specifically include a plasma module, a negative ion module, a sterilization module, an electrostatic dust removal module, and a filter module, such as a HEPA filter. The allergen removal module may specifically include a dust removal module, a mite removal module, and the like. Users can choose to install different air treatment modules within the slave air duct 250 to meet different usage requirements.

[0140] The present invention also proposes an air conditioner, which includes an air-conditioning outdoor unit and an air-conditioning indoor unit connected by a refrigerant pipe. The specific structure of the air-conditioning indoor unit refers to the above-mentioned embodiment. Since this air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

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), and a remote control. Optionally, the user interface 1003 may also 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 memory (non-volatile memory), such as a disk storage. The memory 1005 may also be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.

[0144] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 1 The structure of the terminal shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation of the terminal, and the terminal may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or arrange the components differently.

[0145] like Figure 1 As shown, the memory 1005 as a computer storage medium may include an operating system, a network communication module, a user interface module, and a control program for the air conditioner 10 .

[0146] exist Figure 1 In the terminal shown, the network interface 1004 is mainly used to connect to the backend server and communicate data with the backend server; the user interface 1003 is mainly used to connect to the client (user end) and communicate data with the client; and the processor 1001 can be used to call the control program of the air conditioner 10 stored in the memory 1005 and perform the following operations:

[0147] The slave unit 200 receives and transmits the air supply instruction;

[0150] When it is determined that the slave unit 200 is currently in the automatic air supply mode according to the air supply instruction, the position of the host unit 100, the target air supply position and the current position of the slave unit 200 are obtained;

[0155] After the slave unit 200 is controlled to move to the air supply working position, the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 is adjusted to the target air supply angle.

[0156] Furthermore, the processor 1001 may call the control program of the air conditioner 10 stored in the memory 1005 and perform the following operations:

[0157] After determining that the target air supply position is within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, the slave unit 200 is controlled to move to the line connecting the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 and the target air supply position, and then the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 is adjusted to the target air supply angle;

[0158] After determining that the target air supply position is outside the air supply area of ​​the host 100, the slave 200 is controlled to move to the air supply boundary of the main air outlet 110 of the host 100 close to the target air supply position, and then the air supply angle of the slave 200 is adjusted to the target air supply angle.

[0159] Furthermore, the processor 1001 may call the control program of the air conditioner 10 stored in the memory 1005 and perform the following operations:

[0160] When it is determined that the target air supply position is located in the air supply area of ​​the main unit, the sub-unit is controlled to move to the line between the main air outlet of the main unit and the target air supply position, and the ratio of the distance between the sub-unit and the main air outlet of the main unit to the distance between the sub-unit and the target air supply position is controlled to be greater than or equal to 0.5 and less than or equal to 2, and the air supply angle of the sub-unit is adjusted to the target air supply angle.

[0200] Reference photo Figure 2 and Figure 15 In one embodiment, the control method of the air conditioner indoor unit includes:

[0201] Step S10, receiving and transmitting an air supply instruction;

[0202] Step S20 : ​​controlling the slave unit 200 to perform the air-transfer action according to the air-transfer instruction, so as to deliver the air flow blown out by the main unit 100 to the target air-transfer position.

[0203] The air supply transmission instruction can be issued by the user, for example, by the user transmitting the air supply transmission instruction through a remote control, a button, voice, etc. The air supply transmission instruction can also be issued autonomously by the air conditioner, for example, when the air conditioner senses that the user has entered the air supply area through a sensor such as an infrared sensor, it will autonomously issue the air supply transmission instruction. The air conditioner then includes a detection module and a control module. The detection module is used to detect whether the user is in the air supply area in real time or at a fixed time through sensing technologies such as voice sensors, infrared sensors, and video images. The control module is used to receive data detected by the detection module and send the air supply transmission instruction to the slave 200 based on the received data. The control module can be set on the slave 200 or the main unit 100. The air supply transmission instruction can be sent directly to the slave 200, or it can be sent to the main unit 100 first and then sent to the slave 200 by the main unit 100.

[0204] The slave unit 200 performs the air supply transfer action according to the air supply transfer instruction, and the slave unit 200 specifically turns on the fan of the slave unit 200, so that the fan of the slave unit 200 is running. In this way, the heat exchange air flow blown out by the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 can be blown to the slave unit 200, and then the slave unit 200 performs relay air supply to transport the air flow blown out by the main unit 100 to the target position. In other words, the cooling or heating air blown out by the main unit 100 is transported to the target position through the slave unit 200. Of course, the slave unit 200 can also move or rotate autonomously according to the target air supply position to adjust the air supply direction of the slave unit 200 so that the slave unit 200 can transport the air flow from the main unit 100 to the target position. Alternatively, the user can move or rotate the slave unit 200 to the corresponding position by manual movement or other means, so that the slave unit 200 can transport the air flow blown out by the main unit 100 to the target air supply position.

[0205] The control method for an air conditioner indoor unit provided by the present invention enables the slave unit 200 to receive a transfer air supply command and execute the transfer air supply action according to the transfer air supply command, thereby delivering the airflow blown by the main unit 100 to the target air supply location. The slave unit 200 can then relay the heat exchange airflow blown by the main unit 100, allowing the entire air conditioner to achieve flexible air supply throughout the house, with a longer air supply distance and a wider air supply range, and can achieve targeted and directional air discharge, significantly improving the user comfort of the air conditioner.

[0206] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the steps of controlling the slave unit 200 to perform the air delivery action according to the air delivery instruction to deliver the air flow blown out by the main unit 100 to the target air delivery position include:

[0207] Step S30: When it is determined that the slave unit 200 is currently in the automatic air supply mode according to the air supply instruction, the position of the main unit 100, the target air supply position, and the current position of the slave unit 200 are obtained;

[0208] That is, the air transfer command includes information about the air transfer mode. Therefore, when the slave 200 receives the air transfer command, it can simultaneously receive a air transfer mode selection signal to determine the user's selected air transfer mode. Specifically, the user-selected mode can be used to determine whether the slave 200 is currently in automatic air transfer mode. For example, the user can select different air transfer modes via a remote control, a button, or voice commands. When the user selects automatic air transfer mode, a air transfer command is sent to the slave 200, along with a signal indicating the automatic air transfer mode selection. The slave 200 can then determine that the automatic air transfer mode is currently in operation. Of course, the user can also select manual air transfer mode or semi-automatic air transfer mode. The slave 200 will then execute the corresponding air transfer operation according to the air supply command for the corresponding air transfer mode. When the slave 200 is determined to be in automatic air transfer mode based on the air transfer command, infrared sensors, ultrasonic sensors, Hall effect sensors, and the like can be used to obtain the position of the main unit 100, the target air supply position, and the current position of the slave 200. The methods for obtaining the position of the host 100, the target air supply position, and the current position of the slave 200 may be the same or different, and may be selected and designed according to actual needs, and are not specifically limited here.

[0209] Step S40: determining the air supply area of ​​the host 100 according to the position of the host 100;

[0210] It is understood that the main air outlet 110 of the host 100 has a maximum air outlet range, for example, the horizontal air outlet angle range of the main air outlet 110. The air outlet range of the host 100 is determined at the factory. The air supply area of ​​the host 100 can be determined by determining the current position of the host 100 and the air outlet range parameter value of the main air outlet 110.

[0211] Step S50: The slave 200 is controlled to be in the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 according to the current position of the slave 200, and the slave 200 is controlled to supply air so as to deliver the air flow blown out by the main unit 100 to the target air supply position.

[0212] By obtaining the current position parameters of the slave 200 and comparing them with the determined air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 in a simulated three-dimensional coordinate system, it is determined whether the current position of the slave 200 is within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100. If the current position of the slave 200 is determined to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, it indicates that the slave 200 is now able to relay the air flow from the main unit 100. Therefore, the fan of the slave 200 is turned on and the slave 200 delivers the air flow from the main unit 100 to the target air supply position. If the current position of the slave 200 is determined to be outside the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, it indicates that the slave 200 is now unable to relay the air flow from the main unit 100. In this case, the slave 200 needs to be controlled to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100. Specifically, the slave 200 can be controlled to move autonomously into the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100. Of course, the air conditioner can also issue a prompt, such as an indicator light or voice message, to remind the user to move the slave 200 into the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100. Thus, when the slave 200 is within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, it can relay the airflow from the main unit 100, thereby turning on the fan to deliver the airflow from the main unit 100 to the target location. The steps of controlling the slave 200 to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 and controlling the slave 200 to supply air can be performed simultaneously, or one step can be performed first and the other step can be performed later.

[0213] By determining the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 based on its position, controlling the slave unit 200 to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 based on its current position, and turning on the fan of the slave unit 200 to deliver the airflow from the main unit 100 to the target air supply position, the slave unit 200 can be ensured to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 when relay air supply is required, thereby improving the air supply stability of the air conditioner in the relay air supply mode and preventing the slave unit 200 from being unable to deliver air to the target air supply position after moving out of the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100.

[0214] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The steps of controlling the slave 200 to be in the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 according to the current position of the slave 200 and controlling the slave 200 to supply air so as to deliver the air flow blown out by the main unit 100 to the target air supply position include:

[0215] Step S51: Controlling the slave 200 to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 based on the current position of the slave 200 and controlling the slave 200 to supply air, and then determining the air supply operating position and target air supply angle of the slave 200 within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 based on the position of the main unit 100, the air supply target position, and the current position of the slave 200;

[0216] Step S52: Control the slave unit 200 to move to the air supply working position, and adjust the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 to the target air supply angle.

[0217] In this embodiment, it is understood that simply controlling the slave 200 to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 does not accurately deliver the airflow from the main unit 100 to the target air supply position. Therefore, controlling the slave 200 to be within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 is equivalent to roughly adjusting the relay air supply position of the slave 200. Then, after determining the air supply operating position and target air supply angle of the slave 200 within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 based on the position of the main unit 100, the target air supply position, and the current position of the slave 200, the position of the slave 200 is precisely adjusted. After the slave 200 moves to the air supply operating position, the air supply angle of the slave 200 is adjusted, thereby achieving fine adjustment of the position and air outlet angle of the slave 200, enabling the slave 200 to accurately deliver the airflow from the main unit 100 to the target air supply position. It should be noted that the air supply operating position refers to the position in which the slave 200, once within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, can accurately deliver the airflow from the main unit 100 to the target air supply position. The air supply working position and target air supply angle of the slave unit 200 can be determined based on parameters such as the shortest air supply distance and the minimum switching angle.

[0218] The acquired position of the main unit 100, the target air supply position, and the current position of the slave unit 200 are then subjected to data fitting and difference calculation based on a pre-established mapping table or calculation formula to determine the air supply operating position and target air supply angle of the slave unit 200 within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100. In this way, the slave unit 200 can be fine-tuned at its current position in the air supply area based on the determined air supply operating position and target air supply angle, so that after the slave unit 200 moves to the air supply operating position, it can accurately transfer the heat exchange airflow from the main unit 100 to the target air supply position. The steps of controlling the movement of the slave unit 200 to the air supply operating position and adjusting the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 to the target air supply angle can be performed simultaneously, or one step can be performed first and the other second.

[0219] Furthermore, if Figure 5 、 Figure 19 and Figure 20 As shown, the steps of controlling the slave unit 200 to move to the air supply working position and adjusting the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 to the target air supply angle include:

[0220] Step S521: When the target air supply position is determined (e.g. Figure 19 The position shown by point C in FIG) is located in the air supply area of ​​the host 100 (as shown in FIG). Figure 19 When the straight line AB in the figure rotates around point A through the angle θ, the slave unit 200 is controlled to move to the line between the main air outlet 110 of the host unit 100 and the target air supply position (as shown in FIG. Figure 19On the straight line AC), and adjust the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 to the target air supply angle;

[0221] After determining that the target air supply position is within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, the slave 200 is controlled to move to the line connecting the main unit 100's main air outlet 110 and the target air supply position, thereby aligning the main unit 100's main air outlet 110, the slave 200, and the target air supply position. Simulation can then be performed in a coordinate system based on the position of the main unit 100 and the target air supply position to determine the air supply operating position of the slave 200. This minimizes the distance that the slave 200 needs to relay the airflow from the main unit 100's air outlet to the target air supply position, thereby minimizing air volume loss during the relay air supply by the slave 200, providing a more concentrated airflow and a stronger wind sensation. Furthermore, compared to controlling the slave 200 to move to another position within the air supply area and then adjusting the slave 200's air supply angle, minimizing the adjustment range of the slave 200's air supply angle makes control easier. The step of controlling the slave unit 200 to move to the line between the main air outlet 110 of the host unit 100 and the target air supply position and the step of adjusting the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 to the target air supply angle can be performed simultaneously, or one step can be performed first and the other step can be performed later.

[0222] Furthermore, step S521 is specifically as follows: when it is determined that the target air supply position is located within the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, the sub-unit 200 is controlled to move to the line between the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 and the target air supply position, and the ratio of the distance between the sub-unit 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the sub-unit 200 and the target air supply position is controlled to be greater than or equal to 0.5 and less than or equal to 2, and the air supply angle of the sub-unit 200 is adjusted to the target air supply angle.

[0223] The ratio of the distance between the slave unit 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave unit and the target air supply position may be greater than 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, or 2. It is understood that when the ratio of the distance between the slave unit 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave unit 200 and the target air supply position is less than 0.5, the slave unit 200 is too close to the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100, and the distance for the airflow from the slave unit 200 to reach the target air supply position is too far, so that the cooling or heating received by the slave unit 200 from the main unit 100 is lost after being transmitted to the target air supply position, and the air volume is small. When the ratio of the distance between the slave 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave 200 and the target air supply location is greater than 2, the slave 200 is too close to the target air supply location. Although the air volume at the target air supply location is large, the excessive distance between the slave 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 causes excessive cooling and heat loss after the heat exchange airflow from the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 reaches the slave 200, thus preventing effective heat exchange at the target air supply location. However, by ensuring that the ratio of the distance between the slave 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave 200 and the target air supply location is greater than or equal to 0.5 and less than or equal to 2, the slave 200 can effectively transfer the cooling or heat of the heat exchange airflow from the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the target air supply location, while also increasing the air volume at the target air supply location and concentrating the wind force.

[0224] Optionally, the distance between the sub-machine 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main machine 100 is less than or equal to the distance between the sub-machine 200 and the target air supply position. In this way, the heat exchange airflow blown out from the main air outlet 110 of the main machine 100 can be directly blown into the sub-machine 200, and the cooling or heat loss of the heat exchange airflow of the main machine 100 is small, so that the relay air supply effect of the heat exchange airflow of the main machine 100 by the sub-machine 200 is better.

[0225] Step S522: When the target air supply position is determined (e.g. Figure 20 The position shown by point C in FIG) is located in the air supply area of ​​the host 100 (as shown in FIG). Figure 20 When the straight line AB rotates around point A and passes through the area indicated by angle θ), the slave unit 200 is controlled to move to the air supply boundary of the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 close to the target air supply position, and the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 is adjusted to the target air supply angle.

[0226] It is understood that the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 has a certain range of air supply area, and this air supply area has a corresponding air supply boundary. That is, the airflow from the main unit 100 can be felt within the air supply boundary, but not outside the air supply boundary. The air supply operating position of the slave unit 200 can be determined by obtaining the position of the main unit 100 and the air supply boundary position of the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100. By moving the slave unit 200 to the air supply boundary of the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 close to the target air supply position, the airflow from the main unit 100 is relayed and delivered to the target air supply position. Compared to moving the slave unit 200 to another position in the air supply area for relay air supply, this minimizes the distance between the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 and the slave unit 200 and the distance between the slave unit 200 and the target air supply position. This reduces air volume loss during the relay air supply of the slave unit 200, and provides a more concentrated airflow and a stronger sense of wind. At the same time, compared to controlling the slave 200 to move to another position in the air supply area and then adjusting the air supply angle of the slave 200, minimizing the adjustment range of the slave 200 air supply angle makes control easier. The steps of controlling the slave 200 to move to the air supply boundary of the main unit 100 air supply area near the target air supply position and adjusting the slave 200 air supply angle to the target air supply angle can be performed simultaneously, or one can be performed first and the other can be performed later.

[0227] Further, step S522 is specifically as follows: when it is determined that the target air supply position is outside the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100, the sub-machine 200 is controlled to move to the air supply boundary of the air supply area of ​​the main unit 100 close to the target air supply position, and is located between the main unit 100 and the target air supply position, and the ratio of the distance between the sub-machine 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the sub-machine 200 and the target air supply position is controlled to be greater than or equal to 0.3 and less than or equal to 3, and the air supply angle of the sub-machine 200 is adjusted to the target air supply angle.

[0228] The ratio of the distance between the slave unit 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave unit 200 and the target air supply position can be 0.3, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 0.85, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.5, 2.8, 3, etc. Specifically, it is understood that when the ratio of the distance between the slave unit 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave unit 200 and the target air supply position is less than 0.3, the slave unit 200 is too close to the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100, and the distance for the airflow from the slave unit 200 to reach the target air supply position is too far, so that the cooling or heating received by the slave unit 200 from the main unit 100 is lost when it is transferred to the target air supply position, and the air volume is small. When the ratio of the distance between the slave 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave 200 and the target air supply location is greater than 3, the slave 200 is too close to the target air supply location. Although the air volume at the target air supply location is large, the excessive distance between the slave 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 causes excessive cooling and heat loss after the heat exchange airflow from the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 reaches the slave 200, thus preventing effective heat exchange at the target air supply location. However, by ensuring that the ratio of the distance between the slave 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the distance between the slave 200 and the target air supply location is greater than or equal to 0.3 and less than or equal to 3, the slave 200 can effectively transfer the cooling or heat of the heat exchange airflow from the main air outlet 110 of the main unit 100 to the target air supply location, while also increasing the air volume at the target air supply location and concentrating the wind force.

[0229] Optionally, the distance between the sub-machine 200 and the main air outlet 110 of the main machine 100 is less than or equal to the distance between the main target air supply positions of the sub-machine 200. In this way, the heat exchange airflow blown out from the air outlet of the main machine 100 can be directly blown into the sub-machine 200, and the cooling or heat loss of the heat exchange airflow of the main machine 100 is small, so that the relay air supply effect of the heat exchange airflow of the main machine 100 by the sub-machine 200 is better.

[0230] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 The steps of controlling the slave unit 200 to move to the air supply working position and adjusting the air supply angle of the slave unit 200 to the target air supply angle include:

[0231] Step S61: After the slave unit 200 is controlled to move to the air supply working position, the amount and direction of rotation from the current air outlet angle to the target air supply angle are determined;

[0232] In step S62, the slave unit 200 rotates circumferentially to a target air supply angle according to the rotation amount and the rotation direction.

[0233] In this embodiment, the sub-unit 200 specifically comprises a chassis assembly and a main body mounted on the chassis assembly, with a sub-air inlet and a sub-air outlet 210 defined on the main body. The chassis assembly can be controlled by a drive mechanism to rotate, thereby driving the entire sub-unit 200 in a circumferential rotation. Of course, the chassis assembly can also be left stationary, while the entire main body is driven to rotate relative to the chassis assembly to adjust the airflow direction of the sub-unit 200. It should be understood that when the sub-unit 200 is moved to the airflow operating position, the airflow from the sub-unit 200 at this time may not necessarily be delivered to the target airflow position. At this time, after determining the rotation amount and rotation direction of the sub-machine 200 to the target air supply position based on the current position of the sub-machine 200, the air outlet direction of the sub-machine 200 and the target air supply position, by controlling the sub-machine 200 to rotate circumferentially in the determined rotation direction and rotate by a determined amount, the air outlet angle of the sub-machine 200 can be adjusted to the target air supply angle, so that the sub-machine 200 can accurately deliver the outlet airflow of the main machine 100 to the target air supply position.

[0234] Furthermore, if Figure 7 、 Figures 16 to 18 As shown, after controlling the sub-unit 200 to move to the air supply working position, the step of determining the rotation amount and rotation direction from the current air outlet angle to the target air supply angle further includes:

[0235] Step S611, determining the target position of the air outlet height;

[0236] The slave unit 200 rotates circumferentially to the target air supply angle according to the rotation amount and the rotation direction, and further includes:

[0237] Step S621 : controlling the first fan 221 to adjust the height of the air flow out of the slave unit 200 according to the target air outlet height.

[0238] In this embodiment, the first fan 221 can be a housing that can be installed on the sub-machine 200 in a liftable manner, or a housing that can be installed on the sub-machine 200 in a flip-up manner, or a housing that can be installed on the sub-machine 200 in a liftable and flip-up manner. It can be understood that due to the different heights of users, their air outlet height requirements are different. When the user is an adult, the air outlet height required is higher, and when the user is a child, the air outlet height required is lower. The different states of the same user will also lead to different air outlet height requirements. For example, when the user is sitting or squatting, the air outlet height required is lower, and when the user is standing, the air outlet height required is higher. The air outlet height target position refers to the height of the target object at the target air supply position, that is, the height of the user. Specifically, the height of the air supply target object can be detected by sensing technologies such as infrared sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and video images.

[0239] When there's only one user, the detected user height can be directly used as the target air outlet height. However, when there are multiple users with varying heights, the heights of each user can be obtained and calculated to determine a more appropriate height value as the target air outlet height. Thus, after determining the target air outlet height, the sub-unit 200 can control the first fan 221 to adjust the air outlet height of the sub-unit 200 based on the target air outlet height, so that the sub-unit 200 can deliver the airflow to the corresponding height. The sub-unit 200 can then autonomously determine the user's height and deliver targeted air to different users, thereby meeting the needs of different users. It is understood that since the height of the sub-unit 200 is limited, the sub-unit 200 can be set to different height levels, allowing users of different heights to select different height levels to meet the air supply needs of different heights.

[0240] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 8 、 Figures 16 to 18 , according to the target air outlet height position, the first fan 221 is controlled to adjust the air outlet height position of the sub-machine 200 as follows:

[0241] Step S6211: adjusting the lifting height of the first fan 221 and / or adjusting the up and down flipping angle of the first fan 221 according to the target air outlet height position to adjust the air outlet height position of the slave unit 200.

[0242] In this embodiment, based on the target air outlet height and the current height of the first fan 221, it is determined whether the first fan 221 needs to be raised or lowered, and the height to which the first fan 221 should be raised or lowered. It is also determined whether the first fan 221 should be flipped upward or downward, and the flip angle, to ensure that the first fan 221 can deliver air toward the target air outlet height.

[0243] The sub-air outlet 210 of the sub-machine 200 can be specifically set on the top wall of the sub-machine 200. The first fan 221 is installed at the sub-air outlet 210 of the sub-machine 200. The airflow adjustment device as a whole can move up and down or flip up and down, thereby being able to adjust the height of the airflow blown out by the sub-air outlet 210. The air supply of the sub-machine 200 has a windless mode and a wind-mixed air mode. When the sub-machine 200 is in the windless mode, the first fan 221 is in the first position covering the sub-air outlet 210, and the air flow of the sub-machine 200 is blown upward, and the air flow will not blow directly on the user. When the sub-machine 200 is in the wind-mixed air mode, the first fan 221 is in the second position set at an angle to the plane where the sub-air outlet 210 is located, and the sub-machine 200 supplies air toward the user, which can meet the user's air supply needs at different heights and different angles.

[0244] In one embodiment, if Figure 9 and Figure 18 As shown, the slave unit 200 includes a first fan 221 and a second fan 230;

[0245] Executing the air delivery action according to the air delivery instruction to deliver the airflow blown out by the host 100 to the target air delivery position includes:

[0246] Step S21 : controlling the first fan 221 and / or the second fan 230 to operate according to the air supply instruction, so as to deliver the airflow blown out by the host 100 to the target air supply position.

[0247] In this embodiment, the operation of the first fan 221 and / or the second fan 230 can be controlled by controlling the rotation of the motors of the first fan 221 and the second fan 230. By arranging the first fan 221 and the second fan 230 in the sub-machine 200, the air volume of the entire sub-machine 200 can be increased. The first fan 221 is arranged above the second fan 230. The first fan 221 can be an axial flow fan, and the second fan 230 can be an axial flow fan or a centrifugal fan. Air treatment devices such as a purification module and a humidification module can also be specifically provided in the sub-machine 200 to achieve corresponding treatment of the air. The operation of the first fan 221 and / or the second fan 230 is controlled according to the transmitted air supply instruction to realize the air supply of the sub-machine 200, so as to transport the airflow blown out by the host 100 to the target air supply position.

[0248] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 18 The air conditioner has a humidification mode and a normal mode. After the slave 200 receives the air supply instruction, the following steps are included:

[0249] When the humidification mode is switched to, the switch door is controlled to open so that the air in the main air duct flows through the humidification air duct, is humidified by the humidification module, and is blown out from the sub-air outlet 210;

[0250] When the receiving mode is switched to the normal mode, the switch door is controlled to close to block the air flow in the main air duct from flowing into the humidification air duct, and the air flow in the main air duct is blown out from the sub-air outlet 210.

[0251] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the steps of executing the air delivery action according to the air delivery instruction to deliver the air flow blown out by the host 100 to the target air delivery position include:

[0252] Step S70: When it is determined that the slave unit 200 is currently in manual air supply mode according to the air supply instruction, the slave unit 200 moves according to the received manual adjustment signal and controls the slave unit 200 to supply air, so as to deliver the airflow blown out by the host unit 100 to the target air supply position.

[0253] In this embodiment, the air transfer instruction includes relevant information about the air transfer mode. Therefore, when the slave 200 receives the air transfer instruction, it can simultaneously receive a air transfer mode selection signal to determine the air transfer mode selected by the user. Specifically, the user-set mode can be used to determine whether the slave 200 is currently in manual air transfer mode. For example, the user can select different air transfer modes through a remote control, a button, voice, etc. When the user selects the manual air transfer mode (for example, by pressing a corresponding button), the air transfer instruction is sent to the slave 200, along with a manual adjustment signal. The slave 200 can then determine that the current mode is manual air transfer mode. The slave 200 adjusts its own movement position based on the received manual adjustment signal, and turns on the slave 200 fan to deliver the airflow blown out by the main unit 100 to the target air supply position.

[0254] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 10 The steps of adjusting the mobile position of the slave unit 200 according to the received manual adjustment signal include:

[0255] Step S71: Acquire a single operation signal of the user;

[0256] Step S72: Control the slave 200 to move along a preset motion trajectory and a preset amount of motion according to the acquired single operation signal of the user.

[0257] In this embodiment, this mode is referred to as full manual mode. The preset motion trajectory can be either circumferential or translational. When a single user operation signal is received, the sub-unit 200 is controlled to move along the preset motion trajectory by a preset amount. In other words, each user operation results in the sub-unit 200 moving once, and each movement amount is the preset amount. After several user adjustments, the sub-unit 200 can be adjusted to the desired air supply position. This allows for precise adjustment of the position of the sub-unit 200, ensuring that the airflow from the sub-unit 200 is delivered to the user's desired position.

[0258] In another embodiment, Figure 10 As shown, the steps of adjusting the mobile position of the slave 200 according to the received manual adjustment signal include:

[0259] Step S73: Acquire the user's first operation signal;

[0260] Step S74: controlling the slave 200 to move along a preset trajectory according to the acquired first operation signal of the user;

[0261] Step S75: Acquire the user's second operation signal;

[0262] Step S76: Control the slave 200 to stop moving according to the acquired second operation signal from the user.

[0263] In this embodiment, this mode is referred to as semi-automatic mode. Upon receiving the user's first operation signal, the slave 200 is controlled to continue moving along a preset trajectory. Upon receiving the user's second operation signal, the slave 200 is controlled to stop moving. In other words, the user only needs to press the start button for the slave 200 to continue moving, and press the end button for the slave 200 to stop moving. This allows the slave 200 to deliver airflow to the target location by manually controlling the duration and amount of movement, resulting in a simple and efficient control method.

[0264] Optionally, after controlling the slave unit 200 to stop moving based on the second user operation signal, the process further includes determining that the slave unit 200 has not reached the target air outlet height, and then proceeding to steps S71 and S72. In other words, after operating in semi-automatic mode once, the user can also enter full manual mode. Thus, after coarse adjustment in semi-automatic mode, the position of the slave unit 200 can be fine-tuned in full manual mode, thereby ultimately enabling the slave unit 200 to deliver precise air.

[0265] For further information, please refer to Figure 11 The steps of controlling the sub-machine 200 to move a preset amount of motion along a preset motion trajectory according to the acquired single operation signal of the user specifically include:

[0266] Step S721: Control the handset 200 to rotate circumferentially by a preset angle based on the acquired single user operation signal. That is, each time the user operates the handset 200, the handset 200 rotates circumferentially by the preset angle. This allows for fully manual adjustment of the handset 200's circumferential rotation angle, thereby precisely adjusting the handset's circumferential airflow direction.

[0267] The steps of controlling the sub-machine 200 to move along a preset trajectory according to the acquired first operation signal of the user specifically include:

[0268] Step S741: Control the circumferential rotation of the sub-unit 200 according to the first user operation signal obtained. That is, the user can realize the circumferential rotation of the sub-unit 200 in the semi-automatic mode and adjust the circumferential air outlet direction of the sub-unit 200. The adjustment method is simple, fast, and easy to implement.

[0269] In one embodiment, adjusting the position of the slave unit 200 according to the received manual adjustment signal further includes:

[0270] Step S711: obtaining a single height adjustment signal from the user;

[0271] Step S722: Adjust the first fan 221 upward or downward by a preset adjustment amount according to the acquired single height adjustment signal from the user.

[0272] When a single height adjustment signal is received from the user, the first fan 221 is controlled to move upward or downward by a preset adjustment amount. Specifically, the corresponding operation button can be used to determine whether the first fan 221 is adjusted upward or downward. In other words, with each user operation, the first fan 221 moves upward or downward by a predetermined amount, and each adjustment amount is the preset adjustment amount. After the user adjusts the fan several times, the first fan 221 can be adjusted to the desired air supply height. In this way, the air supply height of the first fan 221 can be precisely adjusted, ensuring that the airflow from the sub-unit 200 reaches the user's desired position.

[0273] In another embodiment, Figure 12 As shown, adjusting the mobile position of the slave unit 200 according to the received manual adjustment signal also includes:

[0274] Step S731: obtaining the user's first height adjustment signal;

[0275] Step S742: Control the first fan 221 to move upward or downward according to the first height adjustment signal obtained from the user;

[0276] Step S751: obtaining a second height adjustment signal from the user;

[0277] Step S761 : Control the first fan 221 to stop moving upward or downward according to the second height adjustment signal obtained from the user.

[0278] In this embodiment, upon receiving the user's first height adjustment signal, the first fan 221 is controlled to continuously move upward or downward. Upon receiving the user's second operation signal, the first fan 221 is controlled to stop. In other words, the user only needs to press the start button to start the first fan 221's continuous upward or downward movement, and press the stop button to stop the first fan 221's movement. This allows the sub-unit 200 to deliver airflow to the target location by manually controlling the height of the airflow from the first fan 221, providing a simple and quick control method.

[0279] Optionally, after controlling the first fan 221 to stop its upward or downward movement based on the second height adjustment signal received from the user, the process further includes determining that the slave unit 200 has not reached the target air outlet height, and then proceeding to steps S711 and S722. In other words, after performing a semi-automatic height adjustment, the user can also enter full manual mode to fine-tune the air outlet height of the first fan 221. This allows the user to fine-tune the air outlet height of the first fan 221 in full manual mode after a rough adjustment in semi-automatic mode, thereby enabling the slave unit 200 to ultimately deliver precise air.

[0280] For further information, please refer to Figure 13 、 Figures 16 to 18 , the mobile position of the slave 200 is adjusted according to the received manual adjustment signal as follows:

[0281] Step S711: obtaining a single height adjustment signal from the user;

[0282] Step S7221 : adjusting the first fan 221 to a preset height and / or turning the first fan 221 up and down at a preset angle according to the acquired single height adjustment of the user.

[0283] In this embodiment, the user can determine whether the first fan 221 needs to be raised or lowered based on the target air outlet height and the current height of the first fan 221. The user can also determine whether the first fan 221 should be tilted upward or downward to ensure that the first fan 221 delivers air toward the target air outlet height. The user can adjust the height of the airflow from the first fan 221 by simply raising or lowering the first fan 221, tilting it upward or downward, or simultaneously raising or lowering the first fan 221 and tilting it upward or downward to ensure that the airflow from the sub-unit 200 is directed toward the target air outlet height. It is understood that the raising or lowering operation of the first fan 221 is separate from the tilting operation of the first fan 221. The user can select the raising or lowering operation key for the first fan 221 or the tilting operation key for the first fan 221 to achieve the raising or lowering or tilting operation of the first fan 221.

[0284] For example, when the user presses the raise or lower button, the first fan 221 moves upward or downward by a predetermined amount, and each adjustment is a preset amount. After several adjustments, the first fan 221 can be adjusted to the desired air supply height. When the user presses the flip-up or flip-down button, the first fan 221 flips upward or downward by a preset angle. After several adjustments, the first fan 221 can be adjusted to the desired air supply angle, so that the first fan 221 delivers air toward the target air outlet height. This allows precise adjustment of the air supply height of the first fan 221, ensuring that the airflow from the sub-unit 200 reaches the user's desired location.

[0285] Furthermore, if Figure 13 As shown, the mobile position of the slave 200 itself is adjusted according to the received manual adjustment signal as follows:

[0286] Step S731: obtaining the user's first height adjustment signal;

[0287] Step S7421: controlling the first fan 221 to move up and down and / or controlling the first fan 221 to flip up and down according to the first height adjustment signal obtained from the user;

[0288] Step S751: obtaining a second height adjustment signal from the user;

[0289] Step S761 : Control the first fan 221 to stop moving upward or downward according to the second height adjustment signal obtained from the user.

[0290] In this embodiment, the user can determine whether the first fan 221 needs to be raised or lowered based on the target air outlet height and the current height of the first fan 221. The user can also determine whether the first fan 221 should be tilted upward or downward to ensure that the first fan 221 delivers air toward the target air outlet height. The user can adjust the height of the airflow from the first fan 221 by simply raising or lowering the first fan 221, tilting it upward or downward, or simultaneously raising or lowering the first fan 221 and tilting it upward or downward to ensure that the airflow from the sub-unit 200 is directed toward the target air outlet height. It is understood that the raising or lowering operation of the first fan 221 is separate from the tilting operation of the first fan 221. The user can select the raising or lowering operation key for the first fan 221 or the tilting operation key for the first fan 221 to achieve the raising or lowering or tilting operation of the first fan 221.

[0291] For example, when the user presses the raise or lower button, the first fan 221 will correspondingly move upward or downward continuously. When the user presses the raise or lower button again, the handset 200 will stop moving. When the user presses the flip-up or flip-down button, the first fan 221 will correspondingly flip upward or downward, causing the first fan 221 to continue flipping upward or downward. When the user presses the flip-up or flip-down button again, the handset 200 will stop moving. In this way, the air supply height and angle of the first fan 221 can be precisely adjusted to ensure that the airflow from the handset 200 reaches the user's desired location.

[0292] Optionally, after the step of controlling the first fan 221 to stop moving upward or downward according to the second height adjustment signal obtained from the user, the step further includes: determining that the slave unit 200 has not moved to the target air outlet height position, obtaining a single height adjustment signal from the user;

[0293] Based on the user's single height adjustment, the control driving mechanism adjusts the first fan 221 to a preset height and / or tilts the first fan 221 up and down to a preset angle. In other words, after a single semi-automatic height adjustment, the user can enter full manual mode to fine-tune the air delivery height of the first fan 221. This allows the user to fine-tune the height of the airflow from the first fan 221 in full manual mode after a rough adjustment in semi-automatic mode, ultimately enabling the slave unit 200 to deliver precise air.

[0294] The present invention further provides a computer-readable storage medium, which includes a control program for an air conditioner.
