[0038] The above drawings illustrate specific embodiments of the present disclosure, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and textual descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art by reference to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0040] The following detailed description of the technical solution of the present disclosure and how the technical solution of the present disclosure solves the above-mentioned technical problems is provided with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0041] When installing existing air conditioners, the installation location is usually selected by the installer based on experience, without specifically considering the relationship between the air conditioner and other objects on the wall after it is installed, such as calendars, stickers, wall lamps and other decorative objects. This results in poor coordination between the air conditioner installation location and the surrounding environment. In addition, since the installer has no clear standards for selecting the installation location, installation errors are prone to occur, such as the air outlet duct being insufficient in length and needing to be stretched, or the installation location being at an inappropriate height, resulting in poor drainage, which will also bring many inconveniences to subsequent inspections and maintenance.

[0042] In order to solve this problem, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for determining the installation position of an air conditioner. By obtaining the model of the air conditioner to be installed and the image of the wall to be installed, the installation position of the air conditioner to be installed on the wall to be installed is automatically determined, thereby ensuring the reliability and accuracy of the installation and facilitating subsequent inspection and maintenance.

[0043] The following explains the application scenarios of the embodiments of the present disclosure:

[0044] Figure 1 This is an application scenario diagram of the method for determining the installation location of an air conditioner provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1As shown, when installing the air conditioner 100, the required installation size 101 of the air conditioner 100 is determined according to the position of the obstacle 111 on the wall 110 to be installed (wherein, the position of the through hole 112 and the socket 113 for installing the air conditioning pipe also needs to be determined), so as to ensure the installation effect.

[0045] It should be noted that Figure 1 In the illustrated scenario, the air conditioner, obstacle, and obstacle are illustrated by taking only one as an example, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this, that is, the number of air conditioners, obstacles, and obstacles can be arbitrary.

[0046] The following describes in detail the method for determining the installation position of an air conditioner provided by the embodiments of the present application through specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments.

[0047] Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a method for determining an air conditioner installation location provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method for determining an air conditioner installation location is applied to a processor. Figure 2 As shown, the method for determining the air conditioner installation position provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0048] Step S201: In response to the input of the model of the air conditioner to be installed, determine the model of the air conditioner to be installed and the size required for installation.

[0049] Specifically, the air conditioner that needs to determine the installation location is generally a wall-mounted air conditioner, because the vertical air conditioner can be placed directly on the ground, and the central air conditioner needs to be installed during the decoration, and there is no need to install it on the wall.

[0050] Different air conditioners to be installed have different sizes and therefore require different installation space.

[0051] The model of the air conditioner to be installed can be a three-dimensional model, such as a model generated based on the appearance, structure and size of the air conditioner to be installed, or it can be a three-dimensional model that only includes the size of the air conditioner to be installed (such as a model of a long cube); it can also be a two-dimensional model, such as only including the outline of the side of the air conditioner to be installed that contacts the wall, used to determine the area occupied by the air conditioner to be installed; it can also be a simple shape parameter of the air conditioner to be installed. When determining the installation position of the air conditioner, calculations are only performed based on the shape parameters, and the corresponding three-dimensional or two-dimensional graphics are generated when finally displayed to the staff.

[0052] The dimensions required for installation include the dimensions of the air conditioner, plus the dimensions set to ensure the air conditioning's heat dissipation, air outlet, or convenient installation. For example, there must be no obstructing objects within 30 cm below the air conditioner, and no obstructing objects within 10 cm on both sides of the air conditioner. By combining the dimension requirements with the air conditioner's dimensions, the dimensions required for installation can be obtained.

[0053] Step S202 : Determine obstacles on the wall to be installed and their relative positions in response to the input first image of the wall to be installed and the height of the wall to be installed.

[0054] Specifically, the first image includes an image of the entire wall to be installed, or at least includes an image of the part of the wall to be installed from the connection with the ceiling to the connection with the floor, so as to facilitate determining various parameters of the wall to be installed based on the first image, such as the shape parameters of the wall to be installed, the position and size of each obstacle object, etc.

[0055] The method for determining various parameters of the wall can be that the installer directly measures the height or other characteristic parameters of the wall to be installed (such as the size of a specific obstacle object or the distance between specific obstacle objects), determines the scale of the first image and the actual wall by the distance between the corresponding features on the first image, and then determines the other parameters based on the scale.

[0056] Although there may be some image stretching and deformation at the edge of the first image, since the accuracy of air conditioner installation does not need to be accurate to the millimeter level, a certain degree of image stretching and deformation is acceptable.

[0057] Obstacles can be identified by using an image recognition algorithm to identify color blocks in the first image that differ from the main wall color as obstacles. Obstacles can include objects such as wallpaper, posters, and maps affixed to the wall where the air conditioner is to be installed that would not collide with the air conditioner, or objects such as wall lamps, sockets, and cabinets that could collide with the air conditioner.

[0058] Step S203: Determine the installation location of the air conditioner to be installed based on the required installation dimensions and the relative positions of the obstructing objects.

[0059] Specifically, after determining the relative position of the obstacle, the area on the wall to be installed that meets the required installation dimensions and has no obstacles can be determined as the installation area. Then, according to the preset installation principles, such as the distance from the socket is optimal within the set distance range, the height from the ceiling is optimal within the set distance range, etc., the installation position of the air conditioner to be installed is selected from the installation area.

[0060] After the installation location is determined, the relative position parameters of the installation location and the ceiling, floor, obstacles, etc. can be output to the installer (such as displayed to the installer in the form of an image containing annotations). Thus, the installer can install the air conditioner to be installed conveniently and quickly according to the determined installation location of the air conditioner to be installed, while effectively ensuring the reliability and accuracy of the installation.

[0061] The method for determining the installation location of an air conditioner provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure determines the model of the air conditioner to be installed and the required installation dimensions in response to an input of the model of the air conditioner to be installed; determines obstacles on the wall to be installed and their relative positions in response to an input of a first image of the wall to be installed and the height of the wall to be installed; and determines the installation location of the air conditioner to be installed based on the required installation dimensions and the relative positions of the obstacles. Thus, after determining the model of the air conditioner to be installed and the parameters of the wall to be installed, the optimal installation location of the air conditioner to be installed on the wall to be installed can be automatically determined, while ensuring the coordination between the air conditioner to be installed and various objects on the wall to be installed, avoiding installation errors or poor installation, and facilitating subsequent inspection and maintenance.

[0062] Figure 3a This is a flow chart of a method for determining an air conditioner installation location according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3a As shown, the method for determining the air conditioner installation position provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0063] Step S301: Determine the external dimensions of the air conditioner to be installed in response to the input model of the air conditioner to be installed and the built-in air conditioner parameters.

[0064] Specifically, the smart terminal or smart terminal application is configured with built-in air conditioning parameters (such as parameters corresponding to each model saved in a form or database), including the external dimensions of each model of air conditioner, the dimensions required for installation and other data. By entering the model of the air conditioner to be installed, the built-in air conditioning parameters can be directly queried to obtain its corresponding external dimensions.

[0065] Step S302: Determine the required installation dimensions of the air conditioner to be installed in response to the input pipe outlet method of the indoor unit of the air conditioner to be installed and the external dimensions of the air conditioner to be installed.

[0066] Specifically, since the indoor unit of the air conditioner needs to be connected to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner through the air conditioning pipe passing through the through hole, it is necessary to determine the relative position of the air conditioning pipe and the through hole, that is, the pipe outlet method of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. For example, some air conditioners require the air conditioning through hole to be located below the indoor unit of the air conditioner, and some air conditioners do not have any requirements for the position of the through hole.

[0067] Due to the different piping methods used by air conditioners, the dimensional requirements for installation vary. For example, if the through-hole is required to be located below the air conditioner, the height difference between the air conditioner and the through-hole must be within a set range (e.g., 5cm to 20cm). If the air conditioner does not have this requirement, the distance from the air conditioner to the through-hole only needs to be greater than the set value (e.g., greater than 10cm). Therefore, based on the different piping methods used by the air conditioner, the dimensional requirements for installation can be determined. By combining these dimensional requirements with the air conditioner's external dimensions, the required installation dimensions can be determined.

[0068] Step S303: Building a model of the outer contour of the air conditioner to be installed based on the outer dimensions of the air conditioner to be installed and the dimensions required for installation.

[0069] Specifically, the model of the outer contour includes both the contour corresponding to the outer dimensions and the contour corresponding to the dimensions required for installation. For example, when displayed in a graphical manner, two mutually containing rectangular frames can be displayed on the wall at the same time. The inner frame corresponds to the outer dimensions of the air conditioner, and the outer frame corresponds to the dimensions required for installation (at this time, the corresponding positions of the installation holes of the air conditioner to be installed can also be marked in the inner frame).

[0070] Step S304: In response to the input first image of the wall to be installed, and based on an image recognition algorithm, determine the pixel points corresponding to the obstacle in the first image.

[0071] Specifically, after the installer manually selects (eg, determined in combination with air conditioner user needs) a wall surface to be installed, the installer first uses the smart terminal to capture an overall image of the wall surface to be installed, ie, a first image.

[0072] After receiving the first image, the smart terminal can use an image recognition algorithm to determine the corresponding pixels of the obstacle. Consecutive pixels corresponding to obstacles are considered the same obstacle. The image recognition algorithm can be any existing one; since the algorithm itself is not the end point of this solution, it will not be detailed here.

[0073] Step S305: Determine the relative position of the obstacle based on the height of the wall to be installed, the size of the wall in the first image, and the pixel points corresponding to the obstacle.

[0074] Specifically, after the installer takes the first image, he needs to measure the actual distance of the feature points in the first image. Generally, the height of the wall to be installed can be directly used as the distance of the feature points, and then the distance of each obstacle in the first image can be determined by conversion.

[0075] Step S306: Based on the relative position of the obstacle, it is determined that there is an installation area on the wall to be installed that is larger than the size required for installation, and there is no obstacle in the installation area.

[0076] Specifically, when determining the relative positions of various obstacles, an algorithm can be called to determine whether there is an area on the wall to be installed that meets the required installation dimensions and does not have any obstacles. If so, the area can be used as the installation area. Any position in the installation area where the air conditioner outer contour model can be placed is an air conditioner installation position that can meet the installation requirements.

[0077] Step S307: Generate a model of the air conditioner to be installed in the installation area, and calculate the distance from the model to adjacent obstacles.

[0078] Specifically, using graphical calculations, the aforementioned outer contour model of the installation area can be generated, and the distance between the model and each obstacle can be calculated. If there are multiple obstacles on the same side of the model, the obstacle closest to the model can be considered as the adjacent obstacle, and the optimal installation location of the air conditioner can be further determined based on the distance to the adjacent obstacles.

[0079] Step S308: Determine the optimal installation position of the model based on the distance between the model and adjacent obstacles and the height of the model.

[0080] Specifically, the smart terminal can pre-configure rules for the optimal installation position of the calculation model (such as the optimization model), such as the distance between the model's location and adjacent obstacles is greater than a set minimum value (such as 10 cm) and the larger the better, the height of the model should be greater than a set minimum height (such as 1.8 m) and less than a set maximum height (such as 10 cm below the ceiling), the higher the better, and the distance between the model and the socket and through-hole is within a set range (such as 0.5 m to 1.5 m). Based on these rules, the ball model installation position is optimized to determine the optimal installation position of the model.

[0081] Step S309: Determine the installation location of the model as the installation location of the air conditioner to be installed.

[0082] Specifically, the optimal installation position of the model relative to the wall to be installed in the first image is the installation position of the air conditioner to be installed on the wall to be installed.

[0083] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3b As shown, it is a flow chart for determining the specific installation location, and determining the installation location also includes the following steps:

[0084] Step S3091: Based on the external dimensions of the air conditioner to be installed, determine the relative position of the wall plate mounting hole relative to the air conditioner to be installed.

[0085] Specifically, since different types of air conditioners to be installed have different distances between their wall plate mounting holes and the outer contour of the air conditioner to be installed, it is necessary to determine the specific position of the wall plate mounting holes relative to the outer contour based on the model and external dimensions of the air conditioner to be installed.

[0086] Step S3092: Determine the installation position of the wall plate mounting hole in the air conditioner to be installed based on the relative position of the wall plate mounting hole relative to the air conditioner to be installed and the installation position of the model.

[0087] Specifically, after determining the optimal installation position of the model, combined with the specific position of the wall panel mounting hole relative to the outer contour, the specific position of the wall panel mounting hole relative to the wall to be installed, that is, the installation position, can be further determined. Based on the installation position, a hole can be drilled in the wall or directly hooked to install the wall panel.

[0088] Step S310: If it is determined based on the relative position of the obstacle that there is no installation area on the wall to be installed that is larger than the required installation area, a prompt message indicating that the air conditioner to be installed cannot be installed on the wall to be installed is output.

[0089] Specifically, if there is no installation area on the wall to be installed, it means that the model of the air conditioner to be installed cannot be installed on the wall to be installed. The user or installer needs to reselect another wall to install the air conditioner to be installed, or re-shoot the first image and repeat steps S304 to S309 to re-determine the installation location of the air conditioner to be installed.

[0090] Step S311: Acquire a second image of the wall to be installed, and determine that the second image is the same as the first image.

[0091] Among them, the smart terminal has a projection function.

[0092] Specifically, the installation location of the air conditioner to be installed determined in the above steps can only display the corresponding parameters on the smart terminal, and the specific installation location still needs to be marked on the wall to be installed based on the parameters for installation by the installer.

[0093] In some embodiments, if the smart terminal has a projection function, the air conditioner installation location can be projected onto the wall to be installed, allowing the installer to quickly and intuitively determine the installation location of the air conditioner based on the projection.

[0094] Before projection, it is necessary to determine that the position of the smart terminal is the same as the position when the first image was taken, so as to ensure the accuracy of the projection position. Therefore, it is necessary to take a second image.

[0095] To ensure that the second image is consistent with the first image, a shooting stand can be provided, the smart terminal can be fixed on the shooting stand, the first image can be shot first, and then the second image can be shot to ensure the consistency of the two images.

[0096] Step S312: Based on the installation position of the air conditioner to be installed on the wall to be installed, project the corresponding positions of the installation holes of the air conditioner to be installed onto the wall to be installed.

[0097] Specifically, the projection content can be multiple frame lines including the wall to be installed, the outer contour of the air conditioner to be installed, and the position of the installation hole. Then, after aligning the frame line of the wall to be installed with the actual wall to be installed, the position of the installation hole can be ensured to be the determined corresponding position.

[0098] The method for determining the installation position of an air conditioner provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure determines the outer contour model and the required installation dimensions of the air conditioner to be installed in response to the input model of the air conditioner to be installed and the pipe outlet method; determines obstacles on the wall to be installed and the relative positions of the obstacles in response to the input first image of the wall to be installed and the height of the wall to be installed; determines the installation position of the air conditioner to be installed based on the required installation dimensions and the relative positions of the obstacles, and then determines the installation position of the wall panel mounting holes and projects them onto the wall to be installed. Thus, after determining the model of the air conditioner to be installed and the parameters of the wall to be installed, the optimal installation position of the air conditioner to be installed on the wall to be installed can be automatically determined and directly projected onto the wall to be installed, allowing the installer to directly determine the corresponding installation position based on the projection, which is convenient and quick, does not require complicated procedures, and at the same time ensures the coordination between the air conditioner to be installed and the various objects on the wall to be installed, avoids installation errors or poor installation, and facilitates later inspection and maintenance.

Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner installation position determination device 400 is applied to a processor, and the air conditioner installation position determination device 400 includes: an acquisition module 410, an identification module 420 and a determination module 430. Among them:
