[0029] 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.

[0030] The following combination Figure 1-Figure 4 The present invention describes the electrical appliance linkage control method, device, air conditioner and electronic equipment.

[0031] The present invention provides an electrical appliance linkage control method, comprising:

[0032] Step 110: Acquire indoor air quality data, and control the purifier to operate if it is determined that the indoor air quality data does not meet preset requirements.

[0033] It is understandable that the electrical appliance linkage control method provided by the present invention can be executed by a controller of an air conditioner, and the electrical appliance includes an air conditioner and a purifier.

[0034] Air conditioners are equipped with air detectors to monitor indoor air quality. The air quality data can be indoor target pollutant concentration data, such as indoor formaldehyde concentration data or sulfur dioxide concentration data.

[0035] A purifier, also known as an air washer, air cleaner, or air refresher, refers to a product that can adsorb, decompose, or transform various air pollution sources and air pollutants (indoor biological pollution. Mainly including bacteria, fungi, mold, viruses, dust mites, pollen, pet dander, organic components of organisms, etc.), effectively improving air cleanliness. It mainly uses household and industrial purifiers to remove indoor air pollution.

[0036] If the indoor target pollutant concentration data is greater than the preset concentration threshold, it is determined that the indoor air quality data does not meet the preset requirements.

[0037] Step 120: After the purifier runs for a first target time, control the air conditioner to send the air from the purifier to the outdoors.

[0038] It is understood that the first target duration can be set according to user needs, for example, the first target duration can be 24 hours. After the purifier runs for the first target duration, it can be determined that the purifier has completed processing the polluted gas in the room and the indoor air can be discharged outdoors.

[0039] Furthermore, the air conditioner is provided with a fresh air system, through which the air from the purifier can be sent to the outdoors.

[0040] The electrical appliance linkage control method provided by the present invention can be applied to newly renovated houses. There is a large amount of formaldehyde gas in the newly renovated houses. Through the linkage control of the air conditioner and the purifier, the indoor formaldehyde gas can be sent outdoors to ensure the health of users.

[0041] In some embodiments, the electrical appliance linkage control method further includes:

[0042] After controlling the air conditioner to send the air from the purifier to the outside of the room, the air conditioner is controlled to send the outdoor air to the room after a second target time has passed.

[0043] It is understandable that the air conditioner is equipped with a fresh air system, which can deliver outdoor air to the room through the fresh air system.

[0044] The second target duration can be set according to user needs. After the air conditioner sends the air from the purifier to the outside, after the second target duration, it stops sending the air from the purifier to the outside and starts sending the outdoor air into the room to complete the indoor ventilation operation.

[0045] In some embodiments, the electrical appliance linkage control method further includes:

[0046] After the purifier runs for a first target time, human detection data is obtained. When it is determined based on the human detection data that there is no person in the room where the air conditioner is located, the air conditioner is controlled to turn off the ventilation function, and the windows of the room where the air conditioner is located are controlled to open, so as to ventilate through the windows and save electricity.

[0047] It is understandable that when the ventilation function of the air conditioner is turned off, that is, the fresh air system is turned off, the indoor air cannot be sent to the outdoors through the air conditioner, nor can the outdoor air be sent to the indoor through the air conditioner.

[0048] The air conditioner can be provided with an infrared sensor. The infrared sensing information collected by the infrared sensor, that is, the person detection data, can be used to determine whether there is anyone in the room.

[0049] Furthermore, before controlling the window opening, the air conditioner also obtains weather data and determines the window opening degree based on the weather data. The air conditioner can control the window opening degree to be different in different weather conditions. For example, in rainy or snowy weather, the window opening degree is smaller than that on sunny days to prevent rain and snow from entering the room.

[0050] Determining the window opening degree based on weather data can be based on a preset window opening degree table to determine the window opening degree under the weather data. The window opening degree table can be set by the user.

[0051] After controlling the windows to open, the concentration of the indoor target gas, such as the concentration of carbon dioxide, is obtained. When the indoor target pollutant concentration is less than or equal to the preset concentration threshold, it can be determined that the ventilation is completed and the windows can be controlled to close.

[0052] Of course, after controlling the air conditioner to turn on the ventilation function of the fresh air system, the concentration of indoor target pollutants, such as the concentration of carbon dioxide, can also be obtained. When the concentration of indoor target pollutants is less than or equal to the preset concentration threshold, it can be determined that the ventilation is completed, and the air conditioner can be controlled to turn off the ventilation function of the fresh air system.

[0053] In some embodiments, the electrical appliance linkage control method further includes:

[0054] Before controlling the air conditioner to deliver the air from the purifier to the outdoors, obtaining weather data, and determining, based on a preset table, a required duration for indoor air purification corresponding to the weather data as a first target duration;

[0055] The preset form includes the time required for indoor air purification corresponding to different weather data.

[0056] It is understood that weather data can be obtained by accessing a cloud server via the Internet. The weather data includes sunny, rainy, snowy, cloudy, and other weather conditions. The required indoor air purification time for rainy and snowy weather may be different from that for sunny days. The required indoor air purification time for sunny days may be 24 hours. Since it is rainy and snowy outside, the gas exhausted from outdoor can be purified. Therefore, the required indoor air purification time for rainy and snowy weather is not limited by time and can be 1 hour, 3 hours, or 5 hours.

[0057] In some embodiments, the electrical appliance linkage control method further includes:

[0058] Under target weather conditions, the air conditioner is controlled to deliver outdoor air to the room, and then the air conditioner is controlled to turn on the heating function.

[0059] It is understandable that the target weather may be rainy or snowy weather. In rainy or snowy weather, the outdoor air temperature is low. In order to improve the user experience, the air conditioner is controlled to turn on the heating function to increase the indoor temperature.

[0060] In some embodiments, the electrical appliance linkage control method further includes:

[0061] Indoor humidity data is obtained, and when the indoor humidity data is greater than a preset humidity threshold, the dehumidifier is controlled to operate.

[0062] It is understandable that in rainy and snowy weather, when the outdoor air enters the room, the air humidity is relatively high, which affects the home experience. Therefore, when the indoor humidity data is greater than the preset humidity threshold, turn on the dehumidifier to dehumidify the indoor air.

[0063] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the air conditioner of the present invention is equipped with a controller 210 and a fresh air system 220. The fresh air system 220 and the purifier 230 form a circulation system. The fresh air system 220 is equipped with two air inlet pipes, one of which can be separated to connect to the outlet pipe of the purifier 230 for use by the purifier 230. When the air conditioner is used alone, the air inlet pipe of the fresh air system 220 is not used by the purifier 230. When the air conditioner is used in conjunction with the purifier 230, the main pipe of the two air inlet pipes serves as the air inlet pipe, and the auxiliary pipe serves as the outlet pipe of the purifier 230.

[0064] The appliance linkage control method includes: an air quality detector in the air conditioner detects indoor air quality and outputs the indoor air quality data to the air conditioner controller. If the controller determines that the air quality does not meet the standard, it prioritizes the operation of purifier 230, during which purifier 230 does not perform air exchange. After 24 hours of operation, purifier 230 begins exhausting air and sends indoor air to the outside through fresh air system 220. After a period of operation, purifier 230 stops operating, and the air conditioner controls fresh air system 220 to send outdoor air to the room.

[0065] In rainy weather, the operating time of the purifier 230 without ventilation is not subject to the 24-hour time limit. After the purifier 230 operates without ventilation, the air conditioner controls the fresh air system 220 to turn on, and the fresh air system 220 sends the humid outdoor air into the room. At the same time, the air conditioner heating is turned on to increase the indoor temperature to accelerate the evaporation of moisture after mixing with the indoor air, and finally the moisture is sent to the outdoors through the fresh air system 220 by the purifier 230.

[0066] In summary, the electrical appliance linkage control method provided by the present invention includes: obtaining indoor air quality data, and controlling the operation of a purifier when it is determined that the indoor air quality data does not meet preset requirements; after the purifier runs for a first target time, controlling the air conditioner to send the air from the purifier to the outdoors.

[0067] In the electrical linkage control method provided by the present invention, it is determined whether the indoor air quality meets the preset requirements, and then whether it is necessary to control the operation of the purifier. After the purifier runs for the first target time, the indoor polluted gas is fully purified, and then the indoor air is sent to the outdoors through the air conditioner, avoiding sending the polluted gas directly to the outdoors, thereby avoiding environmental pollution.
