[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] The following combination Figure 1-Figure 4 The present invention describes an air conditioner fault detection method, device, air conditioner and electronic equipment.

[0045] It should be noted that the air conditioner in the embodiment of the present invention can be a wall-mounted air conditioner, a cabinet-type air conditioner, a ceiling-mounted air conditioner, etc., and there is no limitation on the type of air conditioner.

[0046] The air conditioner fault detection method according to the embodiment of the present invention may be executed by a controller. Of course, in some embodiments, the air conditioner fault detection method according to the embodiment of the present invention may also be executed by a server. This is not a limitation on the execution entity. The air conditioner fault detection method according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described below using a controller as an example.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 The air conditioner fault detection method provided by the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0048] Step 110: Acquire multiple stop frequency spectrum data groups of the air conditioner outdoor unit in a stop state, and multiple running frequency spectrum data groups of the air conditioner outdoor unit in a running state.

[0049] Specifically, this embodiment acquires spectrum data sets for the air conditioner when it is in the stopped and running states, respectively, at different indoor and outdoor temperatures, as well as user-set temperatures. These data sets are recorded as the stopped spectrum data set and the running spectrum data set. The running spectrum data set represents the frequency and intensity (i.e., the sound pressure level corresponding to the frequency) of the air conditioner's operation.

[0050] It should be noted that the sound pressure level is a logarithmic quantity used to represent the size of a sound as the sound intensity level based on the characteristics of the human ear's response to changes in sound intensity. According to research, the square of the sound pressure is proportional to the sound intensity, so the sound intensity level can be converted into the sound pressure level.

[0051] The sound pressure level in this embodiment is the characteristic of the sound intensity of the air conditioner operation that can be heard by the human ear. The operating status of the compressor module and the fan module of the air conditioner is represented by the sound pressure level at different operating frequencies.

[0052] Step 120 : Compare the multiple shutdown spectrum data groups with the multiple operating spectrum data groups to obtain a target comparison spectrum data group.

[0053] Specifically, this embodiment matches data from the shutdown state with data from the running state. Specifically, based on the temperature conditions of any running spectrum data set, the spectrum and sound pressure level corresponding to the shutdown spectrum data set under that temperature condition are found. In other words, by controlling irrelevant variables, factors other than air conditioner operation are eliminated, and only the spectrum data sets in the shutdown and running states are considered.

[0054] By using the difference between the running state and the shutdown state as the comparison spectrum data group, other factors that affect the air conditioner's operating frequency and sound pressure level are eliminated, thereby improving the accuracy of the data and being able to more accurately detect air conditioner fault information.

[0055] Step 130 : Send the target comparison spectrum data set to the air-conditioning cloud, perform matching analysis on the target comparison spectrum data set through the air-conditioning cloud, and output the analysis result.

[0056] Specifically, the air conditioning cloud in this embodiment can be a remote Internet used for cloud computing. The comparison spectrum data group is analyzed through cloud data, and the indoor temperature, outdoor temperature and air conditioning user set temperature of the comparison spectrum data group are respectively matched one by one with the cloud data. The difference between the sound pressure level under the actual operating state corresponding to the comparison spectrum data group and the standard data on the cloud is obtained as the analysis result and output.

[0057] Step 140: Determine whether there is any abnormality in the air-conditioning operating system based on the analysis result and prompt the user.

[0058] Specifically, this embodiment determines whether there is an abnormality in the air conditioner's operating system based on the difference between the sound pressure level in the actual operating state and the standard data in the cloud at different frequencies of the air conditioner operation, so that the user can further determine whether there is an abnormality in the fan module and the compressor module. If an abnormality occurs, the user will be prompted in time. If it is normal, the operating state will be maintained and continued.

[0059] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when an abnormality occurs in the compressor module and fan module of the air conditioner, that is, the air conditioner fails, it can be directly displayed on the screen of the air conditioner indoor unit, and a fault light can be used to send a warning signal to prompt the user. A fault code can also be generated and sent to the user end. The user end can feed back the fault code to the maintenance personnel through the cloud for fault inspection.

[0060] It should be further explained that in order to enable maintenance personnel to clearly understand the fault location, the compressor module fault and the fan module fault can be set to different fault codes, such as the compressor module fault code is F1, and the fan fault code is F2.

[0061] The air conditioner fault detection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention obtains multiple downtime spectrum data groups of the air conditioner outdoor unit in the downtime state, as well as multiple operating spectrum data groups in the operating state, and then compares the multiple downtime spectrum data groups with the multiple operating spectrum data to obtain a target comparison spectrum data group. The air conditioner cloud further performs matching analysis on each target comparison spectrum data group and outputs the analysis results. Finally, based on the analysis results, it is determined whether there is an abnormality in the air conditioner operating system and a user is prompted. By obtaining the target comparison spectrum data group, the present invention obtains the spectrum data group of the downtime state that matches the air conditioner operating state, thereby being able to use the target comparison spectrum data group to eliminate other factors that affect the air conditioner operating frequency and sound pressure level. Then, analysis and processing are performed through the cloud, which can more accurately detect air conditioner fault information and promptly prompt the user.

[0062] Based on the above embodiment, the step of obtaining multiple shutdown spectrum data groups of the air conditioner outdoor unit in the shutdown state and multiple running spectrum data groups in the running state includes:

[0063] Collecting first outdoor temperature, first indoor temperature and first user setting data of the air conditioner outdoor unit under different conditions when the air conditioner outdoor unit is in a stopped state;

[0064] collecting a second outdoor temperature, a second indoor temperature, and second user setting data of the air conditioner outdoor unit under different operating conditions;

[0065] The operating spectrum data group includes the operating frequency of the air conditioner in the current operating state and the sound pressure level corresponding to the operating frequency;

[0066] A plurality of shutdown spectrum data groups are obtained based on the first outdoor temperature, the first indoor temperature and the first user setting data under different conditions, and a plurality of operating spectrum data groups are obtained based on the second outdoor temperature, the second indoor temperature and the second user setting data under different conditions.

[0067] Specifically, this embodiment involves the process of acquiring multiple off-state spectrum data sets and multiple on-state spectrum data sets. To ensure accurate air conditioner fault detection, spectrum data sets must be acquired for various off-state and on-state conditions, namely, for different outdoor temperatures, indoor temperatures, and user-set data in both off-state and on-state conditions. For example, off-state spectrum data sets A1, A2, and A3 are set for outdoor temperatures Tx1, Tx2, and Tx3, respectively; indoor temperatures tx1, tx2, and tx3, respectively; and user-set data Vx1, Vx2, and Vx3, respectively. Furthermore, spectrum data sets B1, B2, and B3 are set for outdoor temperatures Ty1, Ty2, and Ty3, respectively; indoor temperatures ty1, ty2, and ty3, respectively; and user-set data Vy1, Vy2, and Vy3, respectively; and operating frequencies H1, H2, and H3, respectively, with corresponding sound pressure levels Hy1, Hy2, and Hy3, respectively.

[0068] Refer to Table 1-3 below:

[0069] Table 1:

[0070] Data Group Outdoor temperature Indoor temperature Air Conditioner User Settings Spectrum data 1 Tx1 tx1 Vx1 A1 2 Tx2 tx2 Vx2 A2 3 Tx3 tx3 Vx3 A3 … … … … …

[0071] Table 2:

[0072] Data Group Outdoor temperature Indoor temperature Air Conditioner User Settings Spectrum data 1 Ty1 ty1 Vy1 B1 2 Ty2 ty2 Vy2 B2 3 Ty3 ty3 Vy3 B3

[0073] Table 3:

[0074] Spectrum data frequency sound pressure level B1 H1, H2, H3… Hy1, Hy2, Hy3… B2 H1, H2, H3… Hy1, Hy2, Hy3… … … …

[0075] This embodiment acquires spectrum data of different outdoor temperatures, indoor temperatures, and user-set data in the running state and the shutdown state to obtain multiple sets of common data, thereby ensuring that data matching the comparison spectrum data group can be found in the cloud data, and then obtaining the difference with the cloud data, thereby ensuring the accuracy of air conditioning fault detection and improving the efficiency of data matching.

[0076] Based on the above embodiment, the plurality of shutdown spectrum data groups and the plurality of operating spectrum data groups are compared to obtain a target comparison spectrum data group, including:

[0077] Based on the second outdoor temperature, the second indoor temperature and the second user setting data of each of the running spectrum data groups, a matching comparison is performed with the first outdoor temperature, the first indoor temperature and the first user setting data of each of the shutdown spectrum data groups to obtain a plurality of comparison spectrum data groups;

[0078] A target operating spectrum data group is selected from multiple operating spectrum data groups, and based on the second outdoor temperature, the second indoor temperature and the second user setting data of the target operating spectrum data group, a target comparison spectrum data group corresponding to the target operating spectrum data group is confirmed in the multiple comparison spectrum data groups.

[0079] Specifically, this embodiment provides a specific method for obtaining target comparison spectrum data sets. Each collected shutdown spectrum data set is compared with an operating spectrum data set, and the difference between the data corresponding to the shutdown spectrum data set that matches the temperature conditions of the operating spectrum data set is calculated to obtain multiple comparison spectrum data sets.

[0080] It's important to note that in actual air conditioning operation, the intensity of the operating spectrum isn't solely determined by the air conditioner's operating frequency; it's also influenced by other factors, such as outdoor and indoor temperatures. Therefore, under the same external conditions, it's necessary to measure the difference in sound pressure levels between the air conditioner's running and stopped states, and then recalculate the difference between that and the standard value through the cloud.

[0081] From among the multiple comparison spectrum data sets, a data set under a specific temperature condition is selected as the target comparison spectrum data set K1. The values of the target comparison spectrum data set are the difference between the operating spectrum data set B1 and the shutdown spectrum data set A1 under this temperature condition. Specifically, based on the temperature value of B1, the value of A1 where Ty1 = Tx1, ty1 = Tx1, and Vy1 = Vx1 is found in the data of A1. The calculation K1 = B1 - A1 is then performed to generate data set K.

[0082] As shown in Tables 4 and 5 below.

[0083] Table 4:

[0084] Data Group Outdoor temperature Indoor temperature Air Conditioner User Settings Spectrum data 1 Tk1 tk1 Vk1 K1=B1-A1 2 Tk2 tk2 Vk2 K2=B2-A2 3 Tk3 tk3 Vk3 K3=B3-A3 … … … … …

[0085] Table 5:

[0086] Spectrum data frequency sound pressure level K1 H1, H2, H3… Hk1, Hk2, Hk3… K2 H1, H2, H3… Hk1, Hk2, Hk3… … … …

[0087] Reference Figure 2 Based on the above embodiment, the matching analysis of the target comparison spectrum data group is performed through the air conditioning cloud, and the analysis results are output, including:

[0088] Step 210: performing matching analysis on the target comparison spectrum data group and a preset standard spectrum group through the air conditioning cloud;

[0089] Step 220, obtaining a reference spectrum data group corresponding to the target comparison spectrum data group from the standard spectrum group;

[0090] The reference outdoor temperature, reference indoor temperature and reference user setting data of the reference spectrum data group correspond one-to-one to the second outdoor temperature, second indoor temperature and second user setting data of the target comparison spectrum data group;

[0091] Step 230 : Obtain the difference data between the sound pressure level of the target comparison spectrum data set corresponding to the operating frequency and the sound pressure level of the reference spectrum data set corresponding to the operating frequency, and output the difference data as the analysis result.

[0092] Specifically, this embodiment provides a detailed process for matching spectrum data sets through the air conditioning cloud. First, the obtained comparison spectrum data set is matched with the standard spectrum data set preset in the cloud. That is, K1, K2, and K3 are matched with the corresponding data sets C1, C2, and C3 in the cloud data. Refer to Tables 6 and 7 below:

[0093] Table 6:

[0094] Data Group Outdoor temperature Indoor temperature Air Conditioner User Settings Spectrum data 1 Tz1 tz1 Vz1 C1 2 Tz2 tz2 Vz2 C2 3 Tz3 tz3 Vz3 C3

[0095] Table 7:

[0096] Spectrum data frequency sound pressure level C1 H1, H2, H3… Hz1, Hz2, Hz3… C2 H1, H2, H3… Hz1, Hz2, Hz3… C3 H1, H2, H3… Hz1, Hz2, Hz3…

[0097] Then, using K1 as the target comparison spectrum data set, based on K1's corresponding Tk1, tk1, and Vk1, we find the standard spectrum data set C1 in the cloud data set where Tk1 = Tz1, tk1 = tz1, and Vk1 = Vz1, and use it as the reference spectrum data set to obtain the sound pressure level of C1. In other words, we find the standard sound pressure level data for the cloud data set under K1's outdoor temperature, indoor temperature, and user-set data.

[0098] Then, the difference X in the sound pressure level between the reference spectrum data group C1 and the target comparison spectrum data group K1 is calculated, and the difference X is output as an analysis result to perform fault analysis on the air conditioner.

[0099] Refer to Table 8 below:

[0100] frequency K1 C1 X 1Hz Hk1 Hz1 X1=Hk1-Hz1 2Hz Hk2 Hz2 X2=Hk2-Hz2 … … … …

[0101] This embodiment matches the data in the air-conditioning cloud with the comparison spectrum data group. Under the premise of excluding external factors, it can obtain the standard data of the sound pressure level of the cloud data under different outdoor temperatures, indoor temperatures and user-set data, and thus calculate the difference with the actual sound pressure level for fault analysis, thereby ensuring the accuracy of fault analysis and improving the efficiency of fault detection.

[0102] Based on the above embodiment, the method of determining whether there is an abnormality in the air-conditioning operation system based on the analysis result and prompting the user includes:

[0103] Matching the operating frequency of the target comparison spectrum data group with a preset abnormality determination data group, and performing abnormality determination on the air-conditioning operation system based on the difference data;

[0104] When the difference data is greater than the first target preset threshold, or the difference data is less than the second target preset threshold, the air-conditioning operation system is confirmed to be abnormal and a user is prompted to confirm that the fan module or compressor module of the air-conditioning operation system is abnormal based on the operating frequency.

[0105] Based on the above embodiment, after matching the operating frequency of the target comparison spectrum data group with the preset abnormality determination data group and performing abnormality determination on the air-conditioning operation system based on the difference data, the method further includes:

[0106] When it is confirmed that the difference data is less than or equal to the first target preset threshold and the difference data is greater than or equal to the second target preset threshold, it is confirmed that the air conditioning operation system is normal.

[0107] Specifically, the above embodiment provides a detailed process for determining compressor module and fan module faults based on the difference X in sound pressure levels between the reference spectrum data group C1 and the target comparison spectrum data group K1 at different operating frequencies.

[0108] The first preset range of the air conditioner operating frequency is set to 1Hz-50Hz, mainly used to determine whether there is an abnormality in the compressor module; the second preset range is set to be greater than or equal to 50Hz, mainly used to determine whether there is an abnormality in the fan module. The first target preset threshold is set to 10DB, and the second target preset threshold is set to -10DB.

[0109] Based on the above difference X, the preset range and the preset threshold, the following situations can be classified:

[0110] When the operating frequency is 1-50Hz, if X>10DB, or X<-10DB, the press module is judged to be abnormal;

[0111] When the operating frequency is 1-50Hz, if 10DB≤X≤10DB, the press module is judged to be normal;

[0112] When the operating frequency is above 50Hz, if X>10DB, or X<-10DB, the fan module is determined to be abnormal;

[0113] When the operating frequency is above 50 Hz, if 10DB≤X≤10DB, the fan module is determined to be normal.

[0114] The details are shown in Table 9 below:

[0115]

[0116] This embodiment performs fault judgment on the sound pressure level difference at different operating frequencies, thereby more accurately detecting faults in the compressor module and fan module of the air conditioner. Different fault detection results are obtained corresponding to different operating frequencies and different differences, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of fault detection.

[0117] The air conditioning fault detection device provided by the present invention is described below. The air conditioning fault detection device described below and the air conditioning fault detection method described above can be referenced to each other.
