A module may include hardware circuits, various suitable sensors, communication ports, and memories, and may also include software parts, such as program codes, or a combination of software and hardware.

[0043] As described in the background technology section, the temperature sensor of the air conditioner is installed close to the evaporator due to transportation, which reduces the accuracy of monitoring the indoor temperature and causes the air conditioner to be in standby mode for a long time. The present invention provides an air conditioner control method.

[0044] See attached Figure 1 , Figure 1 1 is a flow chart of the main steps of the air conditioning control method according to the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioning control method of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0045] Step S101: obtaining a first operating time required for the indoor temperature to return to the set temperature after the indoor temperature changes by a first preset temperature value on the basis of reaching the set temperature of the air conditioner.

[0046] In some embodiments, the first preset temperature value may be 2°C, that is, the air conditioner enters the standby state after the indoor temperature reaches the air conditioner set temperature, and when the indoor temperature changes by 2°C from the air conditioner set temperature, the air conditioner re-enters the running state from the standby state, and the indoor temperature returns to the first running time required for the air conditioner set temperature. The above-mentioned first preset temperature value is only for illustrative purposes, and can be selected according to actual needs in actual applications.

[0047] Step S102: determining whether the temperature sensor of the air conditioner is abnormal based on the first operating time.

[0048] In some embodiments, if the temperature sensor of the air conditioner works normally, then under the same circumstances, the time required for the air conditioner to return to the set temperature after the air conditioner re-enters the running state from the standby state is the same; if the temperature sensor of the air conditioner is abnormal, the accuracy of the air conditioner in monitoring the indoor temperature will be reduced, thereby causing the running time of the air conditioner to fluctuate after the air conditioner re-enters the running state from the standby state. Therefore, it is possible to determine whether the temperature sensor of the air conditioner is abnormal based on the first running time.

[0049] Step S103: Based on the determination result of the temperature sensor, the air conditioner is controlled to perform corresponding operations.

[0050] In some embodiments, based on the judgment result of the temperature sensor, controlling the air conditioner to perform corresponding operations includes: when the judgment result of the temperature sensor is normal, controlling the air conditioner to enter a standby state when the indoor temperature reaches the air conditioner set temperature; when the indoor temperature changes by a first preset temperature value based on the air conditioner set temperature, controlling the air conditioner to re-enter the operation stage.

[0051] Based on the above steps S101 to S103, the present invention can obtain the operating time required for the indoor temperature to return to the set temperature after the indoor temperature changes by the first temperature value on the basis of reaching the set temperature of the air conditioner; use the operating time as the continuous operating time threshold of whether the temperature sensor is abnormal to determine whether the temperature sensor is abnormal; and control the air conditioner to perform corresponding operations based on the judgment result of the temperature sensor. Such a setting can prevent the temperature sensor from reducing the accuracy of the standby time due to the influence of the evaporator, effectively ensure the cooling and heating of the air conditioner, and improve the user experience.

[0052] See attached Figure 2 , Figure 2 1 is a flowchart of the main steps of determining whether the temperature sensor of the air conditioner is abnormal based on the first operating time according to the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, judging whether the temperature sensor of the air conditioner is abnormal based on the first operating time includes the following steps:

[0053] Step S201: based on the air conditioner setting temperature, obtaining a continuous operation time threshold of a temperature sensor corresponding to the air conditioner setting temperature.

[0054] Step S202: Compare the first running time with the continuous running time threshold.

[0055] Step S203: When the first running time is greater than the continuous running time threshold, it is determined that the temperature sensor is abnormal; otherwise, it is determined that the temperature sensor is normal.

[0056] For example, the air conditioner set temperature can be 26°C, that is, the continuous operation time threshold of the temperature sensor when the air conditioner set temperature is 26°C under the same ambient temperature and the same operation mode is obtained, so as to judge whether the temperature sensor is abnormal based on the magnitude relationship between the first operation time and the continuous operation time threshold. The above-mentioned values ​​of the air conditioner set temperature are only for illustrative purposes and can be selected according to actual needs in actual applications.

[0057] In some embodiments, the control method includes obtaining the continuous operation time threshold of the temperature sensor based on the following steps: before the air conditioner leaves the factory, respectively collect the operation time required for the indoor temperature to return to the set temperature after the indoor temperature changes by the first preset temperature value on the basis of reaching the air conditioner set temperature when the air conditioner is operated in the cooling mode and the heating mode at different ambient temperatures, as the continuous operation time threshold corresponding to different ambient temperatures of the air conditioner in the cooling mode and the heating mode. Exemplarily, when the air conditioner is operated in the cooling mode, the air conditioner set temperature may be 26°C, when the air conditioner is operated in the heating mode, the air conditioner set temperature may be 28°C, and the first preset temperature value may be 2°C, that is, respectively collect the operation time required for the indoor temperature to return to 26°C after the indoor temperature changes by 2°C on the basis of reaching 26°C when the air conditioner is operated in the cooling mode at different ambient temperatures, and use the waiting operation time as the continuous operation time threshold corresponding to different ambient temperatures of the air conditioner in the cooling mode; and respectively collect the operation time required for the indoor temperature to return to 28°C after the indoor temperature changes by 2°C on the basis of reaching 28°C when the air conditioner is operated in the heating mode at different ambient temperatures, and use the waiting operation time as the continuous operation time threshold corresponding to different ambient temperatures of the air conditioner in the heating mode. The above-mentioned set temperature values ​​of the air conditioner in heating mode, the set temperature values ​​of the air conditioner in cooling mode and the first preset temperature value are only for illustrative purposes and can be selected according to actual needs in actual applications.

[0058] In some embodiments, the control method further includes obtaining a standby time threshold value based on the following steps: before the air conditioner leaves the factory, respectively collecting the standby time required for the indoor temperature to change by a first preset temperature value on the basis of reaching the air conditioner set temperature when the air conditioner is operated in cooling mode and heating mode at different ambient temperatures; obtaining the standby time threshold value corresponding to different ambient temperatures of the air conditioner in cooling mode and heating mode based on the standby time. For example, when the air conditioner is operated in cooling mode, the air conditioner set temperature may be 26°C, and when the air conditioner is operated in heating mode, the air conditioner set temperature may be 28°C, and the first preset temperature value may be 2°C, that is, respectively collecting the standby time required for the indoor temperature to change by 2°C on the basis of reaching 26°C when the air conditioner is operated in cooling mode at different ambient temperatures, and obtaining the standby time threshold value corresponding to different ambient temperatures of the air conditioner in cooling mode based on the standby time is 1.2 times of the standby time; and respectively collecting the standby time required for the indoor temperature to change by 2°C on the basis of reaching 28°C when the air conditioner is operated in heating mode at different ambient temperatures, and obtaining the standby time threshold value corresponding to different ambient temperatures of the air conditioner in heating mode based on the standby time is 1.2 times of the standby time. The above-mentioned set temperature values ​​of the air conditioner in heating mode, the set temperature values ​​of the air conditioner in cooling mode, the value of the first preset temperature value, and the relationship between the standby time and the corresponding standby time threshold are only for illustrative purposes. In actual applications, they can be selected according to actual needs.

[0059] See attached Figure 3 , Figure 3 1 is a flowchart of the main steps of controlling the air conditioner to perform the first operation when the judgment result of the temperature sensor is abnormal according to the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, based on the judgment result of the temperature sensor, controlling the air conditioner to perform a corresponding operation includes: when the judgment result of the temperature sensor is abnormal, controlling the air conditioner to perform a first operation, wherein controlling the air conditioner to perform the first operation includes the following steps:

[0060] Step S301: after the indoor temperature reaches the air conditioner set temperature, when the continuous standby time of the air conditioner is greater than the standby time threshold corresponding to the air conditioner set temperature, the air conditioner is controlled to re-enter the running stage.

[0061] Step S302: After the air conditioner restarts, when the continuous operation time of the air conditioner is greater than the continuous operation time threshold, the air conditioner is controlled to enter a standby state.

[0062] Exemplarily, after the indoor temperature reaches the air conditioner set temperature, when the continuous operation time of the air conditioner is greater than the corresponding standby time threshold under the same ambient temperature, the same operation mode and the same air conditioner set temperature, the air conditioner is controlled to re-enter the operation stage. After the air conditioner restarts, when the continuous operation time of the air conditioner is greater than the corresponding continuous operation time threshold under the same ambient temperature, the same operation mode and the same air conditioner set temperature, the air conditioner is controlled to enter the standby state.

[0063] In some embodiments, the control method further includes: after controlling the air conditioner to perform the first operation, continuing to perform steps S101 and S102, and if the temperature sensor is still abnormal, looping to perform the first operation until the temperature sensor is normal.

[0064] In some embodiments, the control method further includes: when the number of cycles of the first operation is greater than a preset number, prompting the user that the temperature sensor is abnormal. Exemplarily, the preset number may be 2 times, that is, when the number of cycles of the first operation is greater than 2 times, the temperature sensor is still abnormal, and the user is informed of the abnormality of the temperature sensor. The above-mentioned preset number of values ​​is only for illustrative purposes, and can be selected according to actual needs in actual applications.

[0065] All the above optional technical solutions can be arbitrarily combined to form optional embodiments of the present application, which will not be described one by one here.
