Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of smart home appliance technology, such as a method, apparatus, air conditioner, and storage medium for controlling an air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] Nowadays, bakeries are constantly introducing new pastries, attracting young people and children to try and buy them. Although there are many varieties and flavors of pastries, their shelf life is relatively short due to the limited amount of preservatives. Therefore, bakeries have very strict requirements for environmental temperature. If the indoor temperature is too high, the raw materials used in baking may spoil. If the air conditioning is set too high, the crust of the pastries will harden due to moisture loss, affecting the taste. Even worse, the strong smell of pastries in the bakery can make the staff feel uncomfortable.
[0003] The relevant technologies do not disclose how to humanely control air conditioners in baking rooms with strict environmental requirements to meet the environmental needs of baking rooms. Summary of the Invention

[0026] In this embodiment, the air conditioner is used in a baking room where various types of pastries are made. Pastries can be broadly categorized as follows: meat-based pastries, refrigerated pastries, and boxed pastries. Meat-based pastries refer to those containing bacon, ham, meat floss, or other meat-based ingredients. Boxed pastries are pastries with outer packaging. The baking room is equipped with appropriate storage facilities for displaying and storing these pastries. For example, display cases are divided into different areas, and these cases are typically transparent and closable. The display case for meat-based pastries has a heating plate with adjustable temperature. The display case for refrigerated pastries has a cooling system, and can be either closed or open. The storage facilities for boxed pastries can be ordinary cabinets. Furthermore, the storage facilities are usually transparent and closable boxes.
[0027] Combination Figure 1 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, a method for controlling an air conditioner is provided, comprising:
[0028] S101, when the air conditioner is running according to the set parameters, the processor obtains the baking information of the pastries.
[0029] S102, when baked pastries are being taken out of the oven, the processor controls the air conditioner to work in conjunction with the storage equipment for that type of baked pastry, according to the type of baked pastry being taken out, to provide a suitable environment for the baked pastries.
[0030] Here, during the baking room's operation, staff will turn on the air conditioning according to the indoor environment and set parameters for the air conditioners to maintain a suitable temperature and humidity level. The baking room temperature is generally lower than ambient temperature, such as 22°C, and the humidity is generally around 50%. This helps preserve the pastries, preventing spoilage or affecting their taste and appearance due to high or low temperatures. Furthermore, by combining information on the baked pastries coming out of the oven, the air conditioner and corresponding storage equipment are precisely controlled. Specifically, the information on the baked pastries coming out of the oven is obtained. This is achieved through a communication connection with the baking equipment to obtain its operating status (which may include the remaining working time). Based on the operating status of the baking equipment, it is determined whether any pastries have come out of the oven. Thus, based on the information on the baked pastries coming out of the oven, the timing for controlling the linkage between the air conditioner and the storage equipment can be determined. In some embodiments, for meat pastries, because their oven temperature is relatively high and will not drop significantly in a short time, the linkage control between the air conditioner and the storage equipment can be implemented after they come out of the oven. In other embodiments, the pastries require secondary processing after coming out of the oven before being stored in the storage equipment. For example, birthday cakes. For this type of pastry, image acquisition devices can be installed on the baking workbench to determine if any pastries are being processed. Based on the processing status, the timing of the linkage between the air conditioner and the storage equipment can be determined. For refrigerated pastries, since the storage equipment requires a period of cooling, the air conditioner and storage equipment can be controlled before the pastries undergo secondary processing to prevent problems such as melting due to insufficient temperature reduction. Furthermore, the communication connection with the baking equipment can be a cloud server or a local server, or it can be a direct communication connection between the air conditioner and the baking equipment.
[0031] When baked pastries are removed from the oven, the air conditioner and corresponding storage equipment are controlled based on the type of pastry. The type of pastry can be determined by a combination of parameters such as the baking equipment's operating time and temperature. Alternatively, the type of pastry can be determined through image processing after it has been removed from the oven. Type analysis can then determine the required storage environment for that type of pastry, allowing for the control of the air conditioner and storage equipment. For example, if the pastry is refrigerated, the corresponding storage equipment needs to provide a refrigeration temperature of 2℃-6℃. Simultaneously, the air conditioner's airflow direction and speed should be adjusted to prevent direct airflow from the refrigerated area, which could cause moisture loss from the refrigerated pastries or compromise the freshness of any fruit on the surface.
[0032] The method for controlling an air conditioner provided in this embodiment determines whether baked goods are being removed from the oven during the operation of the air conditioner in the baking room. If baked goods are being removed, the air conditioner and the storage equipment for that type of pastry are linked according to the type of pastry. In this way, the air conditioner and storage equipment can provide different environments for different types of pastries, thereby ensuring a suitable storage environment for the pastries.
[0033] Optionally, the type of baked pastry is meat-based, and the corresponding storage device is a heat preservation device; step S102, the processor controls the air conditioner to be linked with the storage device for that type of baked pastry according to the type of baked pastry that has come out of the oven, including:
[0034] S121, the processor controls the temperature of the insulation equipment to the first temperature; and acquires the vibration frequency of the vibration sensor in the insulation equipment.
[0035] S122, when the vibration frequency is within the target vibration frequency range, the processor controls the air conditioner to adjust the air outlet direction to the location of the insulation equipment.
[0036] Here, when the baked goods are meat-based, it's necessary to control the insulation equipment to provide a relatively high temperature to extend the optimal shelf life of these pastries. Therefore, the temperature of the insulation equipment is designated as the "first temperature." This first temperature is higher than the normal operating temperature of the baking room. Specifically, the value of the first temperature is determined based on the type of insulation equipment. If the insulation equipment is a transparent insulated box, the first temperature is the ambient temperature inside the box, such as 25°C. If the insulation equipment is a display case with a heated base, the first temperature is the heating temperature of the base, such as 40°C.
[0037] Understandably, meat and pastry products, due to their high temperature, easily attract flying insects. Therefore, the storage equipment is a sealable device. Vibration sensors can be installed within the storage equipment to collect internal vibration data and determine the presence of flying insects. The target vibration frequency range is the frequency of flying insects, and this range can be set to 500Hz-600Hz. If the vibration frequency falls within the target range, it indicates the presence of flying insects, requiring notification to store staff for handling. Simultaneously, to prevent flying insects from entering the storage equipment or gathering around it, the air conditioner's airflow direction is adjusted to blow towards the storage equipment, thus repelling flying insects outside the equipment.
[0038] Combination Figure 2 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, another method for controlling an air conditioner is provided, including:
[0039] S101, when the air conditioner is running according to the set parameters, the processor obtains the baking information of the pastries.
[0040] S121, when baked pastries are being taken out of the oven, and the type of baked pastry is meat pastry, and the corresponding storage device is a heat preservation device, the processor controls the temperature of the heat preservation device to the first temperature.
[0041] S123, the processor controls the ion generator in the heat preservation equipment to operate according to the set ion release amount, and obtains the vibration frequency of the vibration sensor in the heat preservation equipment.
[0042] S122, when the vibration frequency is within the target vibration frequency range, the processor controls the air conditioner to adjust the air outlet direction to the location of the insulation equipment.
[0043] Here, the ion generator releases negative ions. These negative ions purify the air, including removing odors and particulate matter. When meat and pastries are stored for extended periods, the relatively enclosed environment of the insulation equipment leads to poor air circulation and quality, causing insects to thrive inside. Therefore, an ion generator is installed within the insulation equipment to purify the air and ensure good air quality. This reduces the likelihood of insect aggregation and also decreases dust accumulation. Furthermore, to improve air quality and avoid resource waste, the ion generator's operating parameters can be set. For example, the ion release rate can be set to 10 million ions / cm³. 3 .
[0044] Optionally, the type of baked pastry is boxed pastry, and the corresponding storage device is a display case; step S102, the processor controls the air conditioner to link with the storage device of that type of baked pastry according to the type of baked pastry that has come out of the oven, including:
[0045] S121', a temperature sensor detects the ambient temperature of the area where the display case is located.
[0046] S122' When the ambient temperature is higher than the second temperature, the processor corrects the set temperature and set fan speed of the air conditioner; and controls the air guide vane of the air conditioner to move in an up-and-down sweeping manner.
[0047] Here, the second temperature is generally the highest permissible temperature for storing boxed pastries, such as 25℃. Due to various factors, the temperature inside the baking room will not always remain at the air conditioner's set temperature. In this case, for boxed pastries containing fillings such as cream, a rise in temperature will cause the filling to melt. Therefore, the ambient temperature of the area where the display case is located is monitored. The temperature sensor is a tablecloth-style structure, installed below the display case panels. This temperature sensor can be integrated into the display case structure. When the ambient temperature exceeds the set second temperature, the air conditioner's operating parameters need to be adjusted. For example, the set temperature of the air conditioner can be lowered, and the set fan speed increased. Simultaneously, the airflow direction can be controlled, using air guides to sweep air up and down, accelerating the heat exchange efficiency of the area where the display case is located. This, in turn, allows the ambient temperature in that area to decrease promptly.
[0048] Optionally, in step S122', the processor controls the air deflector of the air conditioner to move in a vertical sweeping manner, including:
[0049] The processor controls the air guide plate to move in a sweeping mode where the maximum vertical movement angle is the first angle.
[0050] Here, the first angle can be 60°. In cases where the upper and lower sweeping angles of some air guides differ, the upper and lower sweeping angles can be set separately. The sweeping angle refers to the angle between the air guide and the horizontal plane.
[0051] Optionally, the type of baked pastry is boxed pastry, and the corresponding storage device is a display case; step S102, the processor controls the air conditioner to be linked with the storage device of that type of baked pastry according to the type of baked pastry that comes out of the oven, and also includes:
[0052] S123', the processor determines whether there is sunlight in the area where the display cabinet is located. If there is sunlight, it activates the smart curtains to cover the area.
[0053] Here, determining whether sunlight exposure exists can be done when the ambient temperature is high, or after the boxed pastries have been stored in a display case. This serves two purposes: firstly, it blocks sunlight, preventing the temperature from rising; secondly, it prevents sunlight from accelerating the spoilage of the pastries.
[0054] Optionally, in step S101, the air conditioner operates according to set parameters, including:
[0055] The processor controls the air conditioner to operate in fresh air mode and controls the air guide to blow air upwards; the target temperature of the fresh air mode is the third temperature, and the target humidity is the preset humidity range.
[0056] Here, based on the characteristics of the air in the baking room, the air conditioner is controlled to operate in fresh air mode. This continuously refreshes the indoor air, replenishing it with fresh air. Simultaneously, target temperature and humidity are set to ensure relatively stable temperature and humidity within the baking room while fresh air is exchanged. Furthermore, the air deflectors are controlled to direct airflow upwards, preventing direct airflow onto the pastries in the display cases, especially when the cases are open. This also avoids direct airflow onto people, preventing discomfort. The third temperature setting can be 22℃-23℃, and the target humidity setting can be 45%-55%.
[0057] Combination Figure 3 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, another method for controlling an air conditioner is provided, including:
[0058] S101, when the air conditioner is running according to the set parameters, the processor obtains the baking information of the pastries.
[0059] S203, when baked pastries are being taken out of the oven, the processor controls the air conditioner to execute the air purification mode.
[0060] S204: After the baked pastries are placed in the corresponding storage equipment, the processor controls the air conditioner to return to the operating parameters before adjustment.
[0061] S102, the processor controls the air conditioner to work in conjunction with the storage equipment for that type of baked pastry, based on the type of baked pastry that comes out of the oven, to provide a suitable environment for the baked pastry.
[0062] As mentioned earlier, the air conditioner operates according to set parameters. It operates in heating mode when the indoor temperature is low and in cooling mode when the indoor temperature is high. Similarly, the air conditioner's fresh air mode can be activated as needed, such as during the later stages of baking. In this embodiment, after the baked pastries are removed from the oven, the air conditioner is controlled to execute an air purification mode. That is, the air conditioner is equipped with a negative ion module, which can release a large number of negative ions to purify the sweet aroma emitted by the freshly baked pastries in the air. Staff or customers in the baking room may feel uncomfortable if they are in an environment with a strong sweet aroma for a long time. In this case, the fresh air mode may not be effective in eliminating the odor. Therefore, the air conditioner is controlled to operate in air purification mode to effectively reduce the odor. The air purification mode of the air conditioner can be turned off after the baked pastries are placed in the storage device. Because placing the baked pastries in the storage device slows down the diffusion rate of the aroma in the baking room, the fresh air mode of the air conditioner can effectively improve indoor air circulation. In some embodiments, an odor sensor can also detect the concentration of the sweet aroma in the air. When the concentration is below a concentration threshold, the air purification mode of the air conditioner is controlled to turn off.
[0063] Combination Figure 4As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, another method for controlling an air conditioner is provided, including:
[0064] S101, when the air conditioner is running according to the set parameters, the processor obtains the baking information of the pastries.
[0065] S102, when baked pastries are being taken out of the oven, the processor controls the air conditioner to work in conjunction with the storage equipment for that type of baked pastry, according to the type of baked pastry being taken out, to provide a suitable environment for the baked pastries.
[0066] S303: When a human head is detected in the air outlet area of the air conditioner, the processor determines whether the wind speed at the location of the human body is greater than the wind speed threshold.
[0067] S304 If the wind speed exceeds the threshold, the processor adjusts the current position of the air guide to avoid the human head and reduces the airflow speed.
[0068] In this embodiment, when providing a suitable environment for baking pastries, the air conditioner also needs to consider whether its air outlet parameters will cause discomfort to staff or customers in the baking room. Here, the main consideration is whether the air outlet area will blow directly onto a person's head. In the case of direct airflow, the wind speed at the person's location is further determined. If the wind speed is greater than a wind speed threshold, it indicates that the current air outlet parameters of the air conditioner will cause discomfort. Therefore, the current position of the air guide vane is adjusted to avoid the person's head. Simultaneously, the air outlet speed can be appropriately reduced to narrow the air outlet area of the air conditioner. The wind speed threshold can be set to 0.5 m / s.
[0069] It should be noted that once a certain type of pastry is baked and stored in the corresponding storage equipment, if there is no specific need for an air conditioner for that type of pastry, the air conditioner will operate according to the set parameters.
[0070] Combination Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides an apparatus for controlling an air conditioner, including an acquisition module 21 and a control module 22. The acquisition module 21 is configured to acquire baking information of baked goods when the air conditioner is operating according to set parameters; the control module 22 is configured to, when baked goods are being baked, control the air conditioner to work in conjunction with a storage device for that type of baked goods, based on the type of baked goods being baked, to provide a suitable environment for the baked goods.
[0071] The device for controlling an air conditioner provided in this embodiment detects whether baked pastries are being removed from the oven during the operation of the air conditioner in the baking room. If baked pastries are removed, the air conditioner and the storage equipment for that type of pastry are linked together according to the type of pastry. In this way, the air conditioner and storage equipment can provide different environments for different types of pastries, thereby ensuring a suitable storage environment for the pastries.
[0072] Combination Figure 6 As shown, this disclosure provides an apparatus for controlling an air conditioner, including a processor 100 and a memory 101.
