Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a control method, device and air conditioner for an air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] In modern life, air conditioners are an essential piece of equipment in indoor spaces. By controlling the indoor ambient temperature, air conditioners can provide users with a comfortable living or working environment.
[0003] In existing technologies, traditional air conditioners can quickly regulate the ambient temperature of a localized area near the unit after startup, but their regulation rate for other areas is slower. Therefore, for a period after startup, significant temperature differences can easily occur between different spaces, resulting in poor user comfort. Furthermore, traditional air conditioners typically operate at a fixed fan speed, which, in real-world scenarios, is insufficient for optimal temperature control, leading to low efficiency in temperature regulation. Therefore, how to achieve more flexible control of the air conditioner after startup, enabling more efficient and balanced regulation of indoor temperature, is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved in this field.

[0060] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0061] In the description of the invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.
[0062] It should be noted that the control method for the air conditioner provided by the present invention is applied within a preset time period from the moment the air conditioner is started; the air conditioner includes multiple air outlets; each air outlet is provided with a supplementary air fan, the supplementary air fan can rotate around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet, and the supplementary air fan can also rotate relative to the first rotation axis, the first rotation axis is the central axis of the support structure on which the supplementary air fan is installed, and the central axis is perpendicular to the plane where the air outlet is located.
[0063] Specifically, in order to achieve more efficient and balanced regulation of indoor ambient temperature after the air conditioner is turned on, the air conditioner can be specially controlled based on the control method of the present invention within a preset time after the air conditioner is turned on. This can increase the air blowing distance of the air conditioner within the preset time after the air conditioner is turned on, improve the heat exchange efficiency and heat exchange capacity of the air conditioner, and achieve more efficient and balanced regulation of indoor ambient temperature after the air conditioner is turned on.
[0064] It should be noted that the aforementioned preset duration can be determined based on prior knowledge; for example, the preset duration can be 10 minutes, 20 minutes, or 30 minutes. The specific value of the preset duration is not limited in this embodiment of the invention.
[0065] Optionally, the air conditioner control method provided by the present invention can also be used within a preset time period from the moment the air conditioner switches its operating mode, thereby increasing the air blowing distance of the air conditioner within the preset time period after the air conditioner switches its operating mode, improving the heat exchange efficiency and heat exchange capacity of the air conditioner, and realizing more efficient and balanced regulation of the indoor ambient temperature after the air conditioner switches its operating mode.
[0066] Air conditioner operating modes typically include: cooling mode, heating mode, fan mode, defrost mode, and self-cleaning mode. The airflow distance of an air conditioner refers to the farthest distance that the cool air, hot air, or natural wind blown out by the air conditioner can reach during operation.
[0067] It should be noted that traditional air conditioners typically rely on built-in centrifugal or cross-flow fans for airflow. Centrifugal fans have higher air pressure, so when an air conditioner uses a built-in centrifugal fan, the airflow distance is relatively long, but the user experiences a stronger draft and a less comfortable experience. Cross-flow fans have lower air pressure, resulting in a weaker draft for the user, but the airflow distance is relatively short.
[0068] Because cross-flow fans have the characteristics of long airflow distance but small airflow range, resulting in a weaker airflow sensation for users, the air supply device in the air conditioner of this embodiment includes a cross-flow fan and multiple rotatable supplementary air fans. Compared to air conditioners using centrifugal fans, cross-flow fans can increase the airflow distance of the air conditioner. At the same time, by utilizing multiple rotatable supplementary air fans, the airflow range of the air conditioner can be increased. Thus, it is possible to increase the airflow range and the airflow distance of the air conditioner without increasing the user's airflow sensation.
[0069] Figure 1 This is one of the perspective views of the air conditioner in the air conditioner control method provided by the present invention. Figure 2 This is a front view of the air conditioner in the air conditioner control method provided by the present invention. Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional view of the air conditioner in the air conditioner control method provided by the present invention. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the air supply device in the air conditioner includes a cross-flow fan 401 and a first number of supplementary air fans 201.
[0070] The surface of the air conditioner housing 203 is provided with a first number of air outlets 204. The first number is not less than 2; in this embodiment of the invention, a value of 2 is used as an example for explanation.
[0071] Each air outlet 204 is equipped with a supplementary air fan 201, which can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204. The supplementary air fan 201 is located outside the housing 203.
[0072] It should be noted that the structures of each air outlet 204 are identical. In this embodiment of the invention, an air outlet 204 and the air supply fan 201 disposed at the air outlet 204 are used as examples to describe the air conditioner and the control method of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. The air outlet 204 and the air supply fan 201 mentioned in the following description can refer to any air outlet 204 in the air conditioner and the air supply fan 201 disposed at the air outlet 204.
[0073] The supplementary air fan 201 is rotatably connected to the support structure. In this embodiment of the invention, the central axis of the support structure perpendicular to the plane where the air outlet 204 is located can be used as the first axis of rotation. The supplementary air fan 201 can rotate relative to the first axis of rotation. By controlling the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first axis of rotation, the air delivery direction of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled.
[0074] Optionally, the aforementioned support structure can be a support frame, a support shaft, or a support plate. The embodiments of the present invention do not limit the specific structure of the aforementioned support structure.
[0075] Optionally, the supplementary air fan 201 may include an integrated filter, fan blades, and a rotary motor. The rotary motor can drive the fan blades to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. The filter is located on the outer side of the fan blades and can be used to filter the air blown out or drawn in by the supplementary air fan 201. The outer side of the fan blades refers to the side closest to the indoor space.
[0076] Optionally, a ring gear mechanism 301 can be provided within the housing 203 along the inner diameter of the air outlet 204. The diameter of the ring gear mechanism 301 is slightly larger than the diameter of the air outlet 204, and the difference between the diameter of the ring gear mechanism 301 and the diameter of the air outlet 204 is less than a preset value. This difference ensures that the diameter of the ring gear mechanism 301 is not excessively large. The preset value can be determined based on prior knowledge, and the specific value of the preset value is not limited in this embodiment of the invention.
[0077] Accordingly, the supplementary air fan 201 can be fixedly connected to any point on the ring gear mechanism 301 through the support structure, and the ring gear mechanism 301 can be driven to rotate by the first stepper motor 207. In turn, the ring gear mechanism 301 can drive the supplementary air fan 201 connected to the support structure to rotate along the inner diameter of the air outlet 204.
[0078] Optionally, when the support structure is a support frame, the bottom of the support frame can be fixedly connected to any point on the ring gear mechanism 301, and the top of the support frame can be equipped with an air supply fan 201; or, when the support structure is a support shaft, one end of the support shaft can be fixedly connected to any point on the ring gear mechanism 301, and the other end of the support shaft can be equipped with an air supply fan 201; or, when the support structure is a support plate, one end of the support plate can be fixedly connected to any point on the ring gear mechanism 301, and the other end of the support plate can be equipped with an air supply fan 201.
[0079] It is understandable that during the rotation of the air supply fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204, the first rotation axis and the reference horizontal plane also move up and down with the rotation of the air supply fan 201.
[0080] A cross-flow fan 401 is located below the evaporator 402. The blades of the cross-flow fan 401 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise.
[0081] Optionally, the air conditioner also includes a movable baffle 206. The movable baffle 206 can be extended when the air conditioner is turned on to allow air to be drawn into the air conditioner through the air inlet 205. The movable baffle 206 can also be pushed in when the air conditioner is turned off to cover the air inlet 205.
[0082] The movable baffle 206 can be driven by a second stepper motor 208 located near the air inlet 205.
[0083] It should be noted that in this embodiment of the invention, each supplementary air fan 201 can rotate synchronously around the inner diameter of each air outlet 204; each supplementary air fan 201 can also rotate independently along the inner diameter of its respective air outlet 204 according to a preset rule. The specific manner in which each supplementary air fan 201 rotates around each air outlet 204 is not limited in this embodiment of the invention.
[0084] It should be noted that in this embodiment of the invention, each air supply fan 201 can rotate synchronously relative to each first rotation axis; each air supply fan 201 can also rotate independently relative to its corresponding first rotation axis according to a preset rule. The specific manner in which each air supply fan 201 rotates relative to each first rotation axis is not limited in this embodiment of the invention.
[0085] Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating the control method for an air conditioner provided by the present invention. The following is a summary of the process. Figure 4 The control method of the air conditioner of the present invention is described. For example... Figure 4 As shown, the method includes: step 4001, acquiring the operating mode of the air conditioner, the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space, and the frequency of the compressor in the air conditioner.
[0086] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment of the invention is the control device of an air conditioner.
[0087] It should be noted that the air conditioner in this embodiment of the invention can be used to regulate the ambient temperature of an indoor space.
[0088] Typically, users can control the air conditioner's compressor to start, its operating mode to control, or its shutdown to control its operation, according to their actual needs. User control can be based on user-inputted commands. For example, the air conditioner's controller can receive a first user-inputted command and, in response, start the compressor for cooling; or, the controller can receive a second user-inputted command and, in response, operate the air conditioner in fan mode; or, the controller can receive a third user-inputted command and, in response, shut down the air conditioner.
[0089] It should be noted that user input can take the form of touch input on the target interface, including but not limited to click, swipe, and press input. User input can also be expressed as physical button input or voice input. The target interface can be the user terminal's display interface or the air conditioner's control interface. The physical buttons can be located on the air conditioner itself or on the air conditioner's external controller.
[0090] It is understood that the inputs listed above are merely exemplary examples, meaning that the embodiments of this application include, but are not limited to, the inputs listed above. In actual implementation, user input may include any other possible inputs, which can be specifically determined according to actual usage needs, and the embodiments of this application do not impose any limitations.
[0091] In this embodiment of the invention, when the air conditioner is started, the operating mode of the air conditioner and the frequency of the compressor in the air conditioner can be obtained in a variety of ways. For example, the operating mode of the air conditioner can be obtained by detecting the control commands received by the controller of the air conditioner; or, the operating mode of the air conditioner can be obtained according to the working status of the compressor; or the frequency of the compressor can be obtained by using the controller of the air conditioner.
[0092] The operating modes of an air conditioner may include, but are not limited to: cooling mode, heating mode, fan mode, defrost mode, and self-cleaning mode. In cooling mode, the air conditioner blows out cold air to lower the indoor temperature; in heating mode, it blows out hot air to raise the indoor temperature; in fan mode, it blows out natural air to increase indoor air circulation; in defrost mode, it automatically defrosts; and in self-cleaning mode, it performs self-cleaning.
[0093] In this embodiment of the invention, when the air conditioner is turned on, the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space can be obtained in a variety of ways. For example, multiple sampling points can be evenly set in the indoor space, and a temperature sensor can be set at each sampling point to collect the ambient temperature data at each sampling point. Based on the ambient temperature data at each sampling point, the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space can be obtained.
[0094] Step 4002: Based on the operating mode, control the rotation direction of the air supply fan 201 blades and the way the air supply fan 201 rotates relative to the first rotation axis.
[0095] Specifically, after obtaining the operating mode of the air conditioner, the rotation direction of the blades of the cross-flow fan 401 and the rotation direction of the blades of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled based on the operating mode of the air conditioner.
[0096] It should be noted that when the blades of the cross-flow fan 401 and the air supply fan 201 rotate clockwise, the cross-flow fan 401 and the air supply fan 201 can blow out gas; when the blades of the cross-flow fan 401 and the air supply fan 201 rotate counterclockwise, the cross-flow fan 401 and the air supply fan 201 can draw in gas.
[0097] After obtaining the operating mode of the air conditioner, the rotation of the air supply fan 201 relative to the first rotating axis can also be controlled based on the operating mode of the air conditioner.
[0098] Step 4003: Based on the operating mode, the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis and the ambient temperature distribution data, as well as the preset speed or frequency, control the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 and the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204.
[0099] Specifically, since the air supply fan 201 rotates relative to the first rotation axis within a preset time period starting from the start of the air conditioner, the relative position of the air supply fan 201 is different for any two adjacent moments within the preset time period starting from the start of the air conditioner.
[0100] For each moment within a preset time period starting from the start of the air conditioner, condition judgments can be made based on the air conditioner's operating mode, the rotation angle of the air supply fan relative to the first rotation axis at each moment, and the ambient temperature distribution data. Based on the results of the condition judgments and the preset speed, the fan blade speed of the air supply fan 201 at each moment can be controlled more flexibly. Based on the results of the condition judgments and the frequency of the compressor, the rotation speed of the air supply fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can be controlled more flexibly.
[0101] It should be noted that the preset speed can be determined based on prior knowledge or the speed of the compressor in the air conditioner. The specific value of the preset speed is not limited in this embodiment of the invention.
[0102] Optionally, the preset speed can be between 800 and 1300 r / min, for example, the preset speed can be 800 r / min, 1000 r / min, 1100 r / min, 1200 r / min or 1300 r / min.
[0103] It should be noted that when the air conditioner is running, the cross-flow fan 401 can be controlled to execute a preset speed H0.
[0104] This invention, within a preset time period starting from the moment the air conditioner is started, controls the rotation direction of the air supply fan blades and the way the air supply fan rotates relative to the first rotation axis based on the air conditioner's operating mode. Based on the air conditioner's operating mode, the rotation angle of the air supply fan relative to the first rotation axis, indoor ambient temperature distribution data, and a preset speed or the frequency of the compressor in the air conditioner, the speed of the air supply fan blades and the speed at which the air supply fan rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet are controlled. This allows for more flexible control of the air supply fan blade speed and the speed at which the air supply fan rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet within a preset time period after the air conditioner starts, according to the indoor ambient temperature distribution. This improves the heat exchange efficiency and capacity of the air conditioner, enabling more efficient and balanced regulation of the indoor ambient temperature within a short period after the air conditioner starts, thus enhancing user experience.
[0105] Based on the above embodiments, based on the operating mode, the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis, and the ambient temperature distribution data, as well as the preset speed or frequency, the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 and the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 are controlled, including: when the air conditioner is in cooling mode and the rotation angle is within the first target angle range, controlling the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 to execute the first target speed, and controlling the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 to execute the second target speed.
[0106] The first, second, and third target angle intervals are determined based on ambient temperature distribution data. The average ambient temperature in the first target space corresponding to the first target angle interval, the average ambient temperature in the second target space corresponding to the second target angle interval, and the average ambient temperature in the third target space corresponding to the third target angle interval decrease sequentially. The first, third, and fifth target rotational speeds are determined based on preset rotational speeds, and the first, third, and fifth target rotational speeds decrease sequentially. The second, fourth, and sixth target rotational speeds are determined based on frequency, and the second, fourth, and sixth target rotational speeds decrease sequentially.
[0107] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present invention, the first target speed H1, the third target speed H3 and the third target speed H5 can be determined by numerical calculation based on a preset speed H0, and the second target speed H2, the fourth target speed H4 and the sixth target speed H6 can be determined by numerical calculation based on the compressor frequency H.
[0108] Optionally, the first target rotational speed H1 can be the product of a preset rotational speed H0 and a first preset value x1, i.e., H1 = H0 × x1. The first preset value x1 can range from 1 / 3 to 1, for example, the first preset value x1 can be 1 / 3, 1 / 2 or 1.
[0109] Preferably, the first preset value x1 can be 1 / 2, that is, H1 = H0 × 1 / 2.
[0110] Optionally, the third target speed H3 can be the product of the preset speed H0 and the third preset value x3, i.e., H3 = H0 × x3. The value of the third preset value x3 can be between 1 / 4 and 1 / 2, for example, the third preset value x3 can be 1 / 4, 1 / 3 or 1 / 2.
[0111] Preferably, the third preset value x3 can be 1 / 3, that is, H3 = H0 × 1 / 3.
[0112] Optionally, the fifth target speed H5 can be the product of the preset speed H0 and the fifth preset value x5, i.e., H5 = H0 × x5. The value of the fifth preset value x5 can be between 1 / 5 and 1 / 3, for example, the fifth preset value x5 can be 1 / 5, 1 / 4 or 1 / 3.
[0113] Preferably, the fifth preset value x5 can be 1 / 4, that is, H5 = H0 × 1 / 4.
[0114] Optionally, the second target speed H2 can be the product of the compressor frequency H and the second preset value x2, i.e., H2 = H × x2. The value of the second preset value x2 can be between 1 and 3, for example, the second preset value x2 can be 1, 2 or 3.
[0115] Preferably, the second preset value x2 can be 2, that is, H2 = H × 2.
[0116] Optionally, the fourth target speed H4 can be the product of the compressor frequency H and the fourth preset value x4, i.e., H4 = H × x4. The value of the fourth preset value x4 can be between 1 / 2 and 3 / 2, for example, the fourth preset value x4 can be 1 / 2, 1 or 3 / 2.
[0117] Preferably, the fourth preset value x4 can be 1, that is, H4 = H.
[0118] Optionally, the sixth target speed H6 can be the product of the compressor frequency H and the sixth preset value x6, i.e., H6 = H × x6. The value of the sixth preset value x6 can be between 1 and 1 / 3, for example, the sixth preset value x6 can be 1, 1 / 2 or 1 / 3.
[0119] Preferably, the sixth preset value x6 can be 2, i.e., H2 = H × 1 / 2.
[0120] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the invention, the angle between the central axis of the projection of the supplementary air fan 201 onto the plane where the air outlet 204 is located and the central axis of the air outlet 204 in the vertically upward direction, in the clockwise direction, can be taken as the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis. The central axis of the projection of the supplementary air fan 201 onto the plane where the air outlet 204 is located passes through the center point of the air outlet 204.
[0121] Figure 5 This is the second perspective view of the air conditioner in the control method of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. When the rotation angle of the air supply fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is 0° or 360°, the perspective view of the air conditioner is as follows. Figure 5 As shown.
[0122] Figure 6 This is the third perspective view of the air conditioner in the control method of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. With the air supply fan 201 rotating at a 90° angle relative to the first rotation axis, the perspective view of the air conditioner is as follows. Figure 6 As shown.
[0123] Figure 7 This is the fourth perspective view of the air conditioner in the control method of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. With the air supply fan 201 rotating at an angle of 180° relative to the first rotation axis, the perspective view of the air conditioner is as follows. Figure 7 As shown.
[0124] Figure 8 This is the fifth perspective view of the air conditioner in the control method of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. With the air supply fan 201 rotating at an angle of 270° relative to the first rotation axis, the perspective view of the air conditioner is as follows. Figure 8 As shown.
[0125] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, when the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within [0°, 90°] and within [270°, 360°], the angle between the air supply direction of the supplementary air fan 201 and the vertical upward direction is not greater than 90°, that is, the supplementary air fan 201 blows gas upward to the reference horizontal plane; when the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within (90°, 270°), the angle between the air supply direction of the supplementary air fan 201 and the vertical downward direction is less than 90°, that is, the supplementary air fan 201 blows gas downward to the reference horizontal plane.
[0126] The rotation angle of the air supply fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis can be obtained in various ways, such as by using an angle sensor.
[0127] Specifically, based on the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space, it can be determined whether there is a large temperature difference in the indoor space. If it is determined that there is a large temperature difference in the indoor space, the fan speed of the air supply fan 201 and the speed at which the air supply fan rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet can be controlled to provide differentiated air supply to the indoor space. This can quickly eliminate the temperature difference in the indoor space and achieve more efficient and balanced regulation of the ambient temperature of the indoor space after the air conditioner is turned on.
[0128] In this embodiment of the invention, the first target angle interval, the second target angle interval, and the third target angle interval can be determined based on the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space. Thus, based on the target angle interval in which the air supply area of the air supply fan 201 is located relative to the first rotation axis, the average ambient temperature corresponding to the air supply area of the air supply fan 201 can be determined to be high, moderate, or low.
[0129] Based on the above embodiments, the first target angle interval, the second target angle interval, and the third target angle interval are obtained by the following steps: based on the ambient temperature distribution data, the indoor space is divided into the first target space, the second target space, and the third target space, and the location information of the first target space, the second target space, and the third target space is obtained.
[0130] Specifically, based on the indoor space's ambient temperature distribution data, the indoor space can be divided into a first target space, a second target space, and a third target space. The average ambient temperature in the first target space is higher than that in the second target space, and the average ambient temperature in the second target space is higher than that in the third target space.
[0131] It should be noted that indoor spaces are typically cuboid spaces, and correspondingly, the first target space, the second target space, and the third target space in this embodiment of the invention can be cuboid spaces.
[0132] Based on the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space, after dividing the indoor space into a first target space, a second target space, and a third target space, the location information of the first target space, the second target space, and the third target space can be obtained.
[0133] Based on the position information of the first target space, the first target angle interval is determined; based on the position information of the second target space, the second target angle interval is determined; and based on the position information of the third target space and the third target angle interval, the third target angle interval is determined.
[0134] Specifically, after obtaining the position information of the first target space, the second target space, and the third target space, the first target angle interval can be determined by numerical calculation based on the position information of the first target space, the second target angle interval can be determined by numerical calculation based on the position information of the second target space, and the third target angle interval can be determined by numerical calculation based on the position information of the third target space. For example, based on the position information of the first target space, the second target space, and the third target space, the first target angle interval can be determined to be [225°, 315°], the second target angle interval can be (315°, 360°), [0°, 45°], and [135°, 225°), and the third target angle interval can be (45°, 135°).
[0135] Correspondingly, when the air conditioner is in cooling mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the first target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 intersects with the first target space with a higher average ambient temperature. The fan speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the first target speed, so that the air conditioner delivers cold air to the first target space at a higher wind speed, and the cooling capacity of the air conditioner in the first target space is maximized. The speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can also be controlled to execute the second target speed, so that the air flow speed in the first target space is faster, thereby controlling the cooling speed of the first target space to be the fastest.
[0136] When the air conditioner is in cooling mode and the rotation angle is within the second target angle range, the fan speed of the air supply fan 201 is controlled to execute the third target speed, and the rotation speed of the air supply fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 is controlled to execute the fourth target speed.
[0137] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in cooling mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the second target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 intersects with the second target space with a moderate average ambient temperature. The fan speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the third target speed, so that the air conditioner delivers cold air to the second target space at a moderate wind speed, and the cooling capacity of the air conditioner in the second target space is moderate. The speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can also be controlled to execute the fourth target speed, so that the air flow speed in the second target space is moderate, thereby controlling the cooling speed of the second target space to be moderate.
[0138] When the air conditioner is in cooling mode and the rotation angle is within the third target angle range, the fan speed of the air supply fan 201 is controlled to execute the fifth target speed, and the rotation speed of the air supply fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 is controlled to execute the sixth target speed.
[0139] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in cooling mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the third target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 intersects with the third target space with a lower average ambient temperature. The fan speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the fifth target speed, so that the air conditioner delivers cold air to the third target space at a lower wind speed, and the cooling capacity of the air conditioner in the second target space is minimized. The speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can also be controlled to execute the sixth target speed, so that the air flow speed in the third target space is slower, thereby controlling the cooling speed of the third target space to be the slowest.
[0140] This invention, when the air conditioner is in cooling mode, allows for more flexible control of the air supply fan's blade speed and the speed at which the air supply fan rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet. This is achieved by using different cooling rates to cool different spaces with temperature differences within the indoor space, thereby enabling a more even reduction of the indoor ambient temperature in a short period of time after the air conditioner is turned on.
[0141] Based on the above embodiments, based on the operating mode, the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis, and the ambient temperature distribution data, as well as the preset speed or frequency, the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 and the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 are controlled, including: when the air conditioner's operating mode is heating mode and the rotation angle is within the first target angle range, controlling the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 to execute the fifth target speed, and controlling the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet to execute the sixth target speed.
[0142] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in heating mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the first target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 covers the first target space with a higher average ambient temperature. The fan speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the fifth target speed, so that the air conditioner delivers hot air to the first target space at a lower wind speed, and the heat output of the air conditioner in the first target space is minimized. The rotation speed of the supplementary air fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can also be controlled to execute the sixth target speed, so that the air flow speed in the first target space is slower, thereby controlling the temperature rise rate of the first target space to be the slowest.
[0143] When the air conditioner is in heating mode and the rotation angle is within the second target angle range, the fan speed of the supplementary air fan 201 is controlled to execute the third target speed, and the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 is controlled to execute the fourth target speed.
[0144] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in heating mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the second target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 covers the second target space with a moderate average ambient temperature. The fan speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the third target speed, so that the air conditioner delivers hot air to the second target space at a moderate wind speed, and the heating capacity of the air conditioner in the second target space is moderate. The speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can also be controlled to execute the fourth target speed, so that the air flow speed in the second target space is moderate, thereby controlling the heating rate of the second target space to be moderate.
[0145] When the air conditioner is in heating mode and the rotation angle is within the third target angle range, the fan speed of the air supply fan 201 is controlled to achieve the first target speed, and the rotation speed of the air supply fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 is controlled to achieve the second target speed.
[0146] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in heating mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the third target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 covers the third target space with a lower average ambient temperature. The fan speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the first target speed, so that the air conditioner delivers hot air to the first target space at a higher wind speed, and the air conditioner has the maximum heating capacity in the third target space. The speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can also be controlled to execute the second target speed, so that the air flow speed in the third target space is faster, thereby controlling the heating speed of the third target space to be the fastest.
[0147] This invention, when the air conditioner is in heating mode, allows for more flexible control of the fan blade speed and the speed at which the fan rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet. This is achieved by using the rotation angle of the air supply fan relative to the first rotation axis and the first, second, and third target angle ranges determined based on the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space. This enables different spaces with temperature differences to be heated at different rates, thereby achieving a more balanced increase in indoor ambient temperature within a short period of time after the air conditioner is turned on.
[0148] Based on the above embodiments, based on the operating mode, the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis, and the ambient temperature distribution data, as well as the preset speed or frequency, the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 and the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 are controlled, including: when the air conditioner's operating mode is the air supply mode and the rotation angle is within the first target angle range, controlling the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 to execute the first target speed, and controlling the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 to execute the sixth target speed.
[0149] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in the air supply mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the first target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 covers the first target space with a high average ambient temperature. The fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the first target speed, and the rotation speed of the supplementary air fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can be controlled to execute the sixth target speed, thereby reducing the ambient temperature in the first target space.
[0150] When the air conditioner is in the air supply mode and the rotation angle is within the second target angle range, the fan speed of the air supply fan 201 is controlled to execute the third target speed, and the speed at which the air supply fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 is controlled to execute the fourth target speed.
[0151] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in the air supply mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the second target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 covers the second target space with a moderate average ambient temperature. The fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the third target speed, and the rotation speed of the supplementary air fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can be controlled to execute the fourth target speed, so that the air flow speed in the second target space is moderate.
[0152] When the air conditioner is in the air supply mode and the rotation angle is within the third target angle range, the fan speed of the air supply fan 201 is controlled to execute the fifth target speed, and the rotation speed of the air supply fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 is controlled to execute the second target speed.
[0153] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in the air supply mode, if the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is within the third target angle range, it means that the air blowing range of the supplementary air fan 201 covers the third target space with a lower average ambient temperature. The fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 can be controlled to execute the fifth target speed, and the rotation speed of the supplementary air fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can be controlled to execute the second target speed, so that the air flow speed in the third target space is slower, thereby preventing the ambient temperature in the third target space from decreasing further.
[0154] This invention, when the air conditioner is in air supply mode, allows for more flexible control of the fan blade speed and the speed at which the air supply fan rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet. This is achieved by using the rotation angle of the air supply fan relative to the first rotation axis and the first, second, and third target angle ranges determined based on the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space. This enables different air supply effects for spaces with different temperature differences, simulates the effect of natural wind, improves user comfort, and avoids excessively cold air supply from the air conditioner in air supply mode.
[0155] Based on the above embodiments, based on the operating mode, the rotation angle of the supplementary air fan relative to the first rotation axis, and the ambient temperature distribution data, as well as the preset speed or frequency, the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 and the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 are controlled, including: when the temperature difference of the ambient temperature in the indoor space is determined to be no greater than a preset value based on the ambient temperature distribution data, the operating mode is cooling mode or heating mode, and the rotation angle is any angle, the fan blade speed of the supplementary air fan 201 is controlled to execute a third target speed, and the speed at which the supplementary air fan 201 rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 is controlled to execute a fourth target speed.
[0156] Specifically, after obtaining the ambient temperature distribution data of the indoor space, if it is determined based on the above ambient temperature distribution data that the temperature difference in the indoor space is not greater than a preset value, it indicates that the ambient temperature distribution in the indoor space is uniform.
[0157] Accordingly, if the temperature difference in the indoor space is determined to be no greater than the preset value based on the above-mentioned ambient temperature distribution data, and if the air conditioner is in cooling mode or heating mode and the rotation angle of the air supply fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is arbitrary, then the fan speed of the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to execute the third target speed, and the rotation speed of the air supply fan 201 around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204 can be controlled to execute the fourth target speed, so that the air supply fan 201 delivers air to the indoor space at a moderate wind speed and the air flow speed in the indoor space is moderate.
[0158] This invention, by determining, based on ambient temperature distribution data, that the temperature difference within the indoor space is no greater than a preset value, and that the operating mode is either cooling or heating, and the rotation angle of the air supply fan relative to the first rotation axis is arbitrary, controls the fan blade speed of the air supply fan to execute a third target speed, and controls the speed at which the air supply fan rotates around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet to execute a fourth target speed. This allows for more balanced regulation of the indoor ambient temperature when the ambient temperature distribution within the indoor space is uniform.
[0159] Based on the above embodiments, and based on the operating mode, controlling the rotation direction of the air supply fan 201 blades and the way the air supply fan 201 rotates relative to the first rotation axis includes: when the air conditioner's operating mode is cooling mode or heating mode, controlling the air supply fan 201 blades to rotate clockwise and controlling the air supply fan 201 to rotate circumferentially relative to the first rotation axis.
[0160] Specifically, within a preset time period from the moment the air conditioner is started, if the air conditioner is in cooling mode or heating mode, the fan blades of the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to rotate clockwise and the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to rotate 360° around the first rotation axis, so that the air supply fan 201 can rotate 360° to deliver air, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency and heat exchange capacity of the air conditioner in cooling mode.
[0161] It should be noted that within a preset time period from the moment the air conditioner is started, if the air conditioner is in cooling or heating mode, the blades of the cross-flow fan 401 can be controlled to rotate clockwise.
[0162] When the air conditioner is in the air supply mode, the blades of the air supply fan 201 are controlled to rotate clockwise, and the air supply fan 201 is controlled to reciprocate relative to the first rotation axis below the reference horizontal plane.
[0163] Specifically, within a preset time period from the start of the air conditioner, if the air conditioner is in the air supply mode, the blades of the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to rotate clockwise and the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to reciprocate relative to the first rotation axis below the reference horizontal plane, so that the air supply fan 201 can swing and supply air downwards to the reference horizontal plane, thereby improving the air supply effect of the air conditioner.
[0164] It should be noted that, within a preset time period from the moment the air conditioner is started, if the air conditioner is in the air supply mode, the blades of the cross-flow fan 401 can be controlled to rotate clockwise.
[0165] When the air conditioner is in the target mode, the blades of the air supply fan 201 are controlled to rotate counterclockwise, and the air supply fan 201 is controlled to rotate relative to the first rotation axis to above the reference horizontal plane.
[0166] The target mode includes either a defrost mode or a self-cleaning mode; the reference horizontal plane is the horizontal plane where the first rotation axis is located.
[0167] Specifically, within a preset time period from the moment the air conditioner is started, if the air conditioner is in defrost mode or self-cleaning mode, the fan blades of the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to rotate counterclockwise and the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to rotate above the reference horizontal plane. This allows the air supply fan 201 to swing and draw in air from above the reference horizontal plane, thereby avoiding affecting the air conditioner's performance in the target mode and reducing the noise of the air conditioner.
[0168] It should be noted that if the air conditioner is in defrost mode or self-cleaning mode within a preset time period from the moment the air conditioner is started, the blades of the cross-flow fan 401 can be controlled to rotate counterclockwise.
[0169] It should be noted that when the air conditioner is in target mode, the air supply fan 201 is controlled to execute the second blade rotation speed.
[0170] Specifically, if the air conditioner is in target mode within a preset time period from the moment it is started, the air supply fan 201 is controlled to rotate above the reference horizontal plane. Therefore, when the air conditioner is in target mode, the rotation angle of the air supply fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis is always within [0°, 90°] and within [270°, 360°].
[0171] Accordingly, when the air conditioner is in the target mode, the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to execute the second blade rotation speed, and the rotation angle of the air supply fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis can be controlled to 0°, so that the air conditioner draws in air from above the reference horizontal plane at a medium fan speed. This can avoid affecting the air conditioner's performance in the target mode and can reduce the noise of the air conditioner.
[0172] This invention, in its embodiments, controls the air supply fan to rotate 360° to deliver air when the air conditioner is in cooling or heating mode; controls the air supply fan to swing downwards towards a reference horizontal plane when the air conditioner is in ventilation mode; and controls the air supply fan to swing upwards from above the reference horizontal plane to draw in air when the air conditioner is in defrost or self-cleaning mode. This allows for more flexible control over the rotation direction of the air supply fan blades and the way they rotate relative to the first rotation axis, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency, heat exchange capacity, and air delivery effect of the air conditioner in different operating modes. Ultimately, this enables more efficient and balanced regulation of the indoor ambient temperature within a short time after the air conditioner is started.
[0173] Based on the above embodiments, the method of controlling the rotation direction of the air supply fan 201 blades and the rotation of the air supply fan 201 relative to the first rotation axis based on the operating mode includes: when the temperature difference of the indoor ambient temperature is determined to be no greater than a preset value based on the ambient temperature distribution data, and the operating mode is cooling mode or heating mode, controlling the air supply fan 201 to rotate clockwise around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204.
[0174] Specifically, if the temperature difference in the indoor environment is determined to be no greater than the preset value based on the above-mentioned ambient temperature distribution data, and if the air conditioner is in cooling mode or heating mode, the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to rotate clockwise around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204.
[0175] It should be noted that, if the temperature difference in the indoor environment is greater than the preset value based on the above-mentioned ambient temperature distribution data, and if the air conditioner is in cooling mode or heating mode, the air supply fan 201 can be controlled to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet 204.
[0176] This invention, in the case of determining that the temperature difference in the indoor space is not greater than a preset value based on the ambient temperature distribution data and the operating mode is cooling or heating, controls the air supply fan to rotate clockwise around the inner diameter of the corresponding air outlet. This allows for more balanced regulation of the indoor space's ambient temperature when the ambient temperature distribution is uniform.
[0177] Based on the above embodiments, the rotation of each air supply fan relative to each first rotation axis is synchronous, and the rotation of each air supply fan around the inner diameter of each air outlet is synchronous.
[0178] In this embodiment of the invention, each air supply fan rotates synchronously around the inner diameter of each air outlet, and each air supply fan rotates synchronously relative to the first rotation axis. This can prevent the air supply area of the air conditioner from being dispersed or concentrated, further increase the air supply distance of the air conditioner, improve the heat exchange efficiency and heat exchange capacity of the air conditioner, and achieve more efficient and balanced control of the indoor ambient temperature in a short time after the air conditioner is started.
