[0036] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0037] The main solution of the present invention is: when receiving a refrigeration mode start instruction, obtaining the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module; if the working environment temperature is greater than a first temperature threshold, controlling the condenser fan to turn on to lower the working environment temperature; after the working environment temperature drops to less than or equal to the first temperature threshold, controlling the evaporator fan and the compressor to turn on.

[0038] When the stove or steam oven of the integrated stove is turned on, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module will rise. If the refrigeration module is operated in a high working temperature environment, it will cause damage to the refrigeration module, which is not conducive to improving the refrigeration reliability of the refrigeration module of the integrated stove. Therefore, the present invention provides the above solution to improve the refrigeration reliability of the refrigeration module of the integrated stove.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the control device of the integrated stove in the hardware operating environment involved in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the control device of the integrated stove may include: a communication bus 1002, a processor 1001, such as a CPU, a user interface 1003, a network interface 1004, and a memory 1005. Among them, the communication bus 1002 is used to realize the connection and communication between these components. The user interface 1003 may include a display screen (Display), an input unit such as a keyboard (Keyboard), and the optional user interface 1003 may also include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface. The network interface 1004 may optionally include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface (such as a WI-FI interface). The memory 1005 may be a high-speed RAM memory, or a stable memory (non-volatile memory), such as a disk memory. The memory 1005 may also be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.

[0041] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 1 The control device structure of the integrated stove shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation of the control device of the integrated stove, and may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or a combination of certain components, or a different arrangement of components.

[0042] exist Figure 1 In the control device of the integrated stove shown, the network interface 1004 is mainly used to connect to the background server and communicate data with the background server; the user interface 1003 is mainly used to connect to the client (user end) and communicate data with the client; and the processor 1001 can be used to call the control program of the integrated stove stored in the memory 1005, and execute the relevant steps of the following embodiments of the integrated stove control method.

[0043] Based on the above integrated stove control device, an embodiment of the integrated stove control method of the present invention is proposed. Figure 2 In this embodiment, the control method of the integrated stove includes the following steps:

[0044] Step S10: upon receiving a cooling mode start instruction, obtaining the working environment temperature of the cooling module;

[0045] It should be noted that the refrigeration module in this embodiment refers to the refrigeration module integrated in the integrated stove. That is, the integrated stove used in this embodiment may include a refrigeration module and at least one kitchen appliance, such as a stove, an oven, a disinfection cabinet, a heat preservation cabinet, and a range hood. In addition, the integrated stove may also include a smoke exhaust fan. Among them, a condenser, a condenser fan, an evaporator, an evaporator fan and a compressor are also provided in the refrigeration module. Because the integrated stove is a closed design, indoor air can enter the evaporator and condenser of the refrigeration module from the skirting position of the integrated stove. On the one hand, the indoor air entering the evaporator can, under the action of the evaporator fan, discharge the cold air after heat exchange through the evaporator from the heat exchange duct to the room; on the other hand, the indoor air entering the condenser can, under the action of the condenser fan, discharge the hot air after heat exchange through the condenser and compression by the compressor from the duct where the condenser is located to the smoke exhaust duct, and then discharge it to the outside from the smoke exhaust duct.

[0046] When the user needs to turn on the cooling mode of the integrated stove, such as when the user is preparing to cook, the control instruction can be triggered by voice or button to control the cooling module of the integrated stove to turn on the cooling mode to meet the user's cooling needs. Of course, the way to turn on the cooling mode can also be: determine whether to turn on the cooling mode by detecting the operating status of the kitchenware integrated in the integrated stove. For example, whether the stove is turned on can be used as a condition for turning on the cooling mode. When it is detected that the stove is in the on state, the control instruction can be automatically triggered to control the cooling module of the integrated stove to turn on the cooling mode. It can also be: the ambient temperature of the indoor environment where the integrated stove is located is used as a condition for turning on the cooling mode. For example, when the ambient temperature of the indoor environment exceeds 25°C, the control instruction is automatically triggered to control the cooling module of the integrated stove to turn on the cooling mode; it can also be: the user status information in the indoor environment where the integrated stove is located is used as a condition for turning on the cooling mode. For example, when the user has been in the indoor environment where the integrated stove is located for a preset time (such as 20 minutes), the control instruction is automatically triggered to control the refrigeration module of the integrated stove to turn on the cooling mode; alternatively, the facial state information of the user in the indoor environment where the integrated stove is located can be collected through an image acquisition device (such as a camera). If it is determined based on the facial state information that the user is sweating or anxious, the control instruction is automatically triggered to control the refrigeration module of the integrated stove to turn on the cooling mode, etc., wherein the image acquisition device can be integrated in the integrated stove, or can be independent of the integrated stove and communicated with the integrated stove. At this time, the image acquisition device can send the collected facial state information to the control device of the integrated stove.

[0047] However, in order to prevent the refrigeration module from being damaged by high-temperature operation, the starting method of the corresponding refrigeration mode will be different depending on the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module. That is, in this embodiment, the control of the refrigeration mode is related to the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module in different application environments. Therefore, after the control device of the integrated stove receives the refrigeration mode start-up instruction triggered by the user, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module in different application environments can be detected first, so as to determine the refrigeration start-up method of the integrated stove according to the detected working environment temperature.

[0048] It should be noted that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module may include not only the internal environment temperature inside the cavity of the refrigeration module, but also the heat conduction temperature between the refrigeration module and the heat source modules such as the stove, steam oven, etc. included in the integrated stove, wherein a temperature detection device is provided inside the refrigeration module for detecting the internal environment temperature in the cavity of the refrigeration module; a temperature detection device is also provided outside the refrigeration module, and the temperature detection device is provided between the refrigeration module and the heat source module of the integrated stove, and can be used to detect the heat conduction temperature between the refrigeration module and each heat source module such as the stove, steam oven, etc. However, the installation positions of the refrigeration module and the heat source module in the integrated stove are different, and the number and position of the corresponding temperature detection devices provided outside the refrigeration module may also be different. For example, when the refrigeration module is installed in the lower right corner of the integrated stove, and a stove is installed above the integrated stove, and an oven is installed on the left, the temperature detection devices can be respectively provided above and on the left of the refrigeration module; when the refrigeration module is installed in the lower left corner of the integrated stove, and a stove is installed above the integrated stove, and an oven is installed on the right, the temperature detection devices can be respectively provided above and on the right of the refrigeration module. Of course, in order to improve the reliability of temperature detection, more temperature detection devices may be provided according to actual needs, which is not specifically limited here.

[0049] It should be noted that the temperature detection device may be a temperature sensor or other device that can be used for temperature detection, which is not specifically limited here.

[0050] Step S20: If the working environment temperature is greater than a first temperature threshold, controlling the condenser fan to turn on to lower the working environment temperature;

[0051] When the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high, if the compressor is started, the compressor will be shut down or damaged due to the overheat protection function of the compressor, so the compressor cannot be started immediately, that is, the compressor, condenser fan and evaporator fan cannot be started at the same time. However, if only the evaporator fan is started, the evaporator fan will also discharge hot air, which not only fails to achieve the purpose of lowering the indoor ambient temperature, but also as the indoor ambient temperature increases, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module will still not reach the temperature requirement for starting the compressor, and thus cannot effectively cool the indoor environment. Therefore, when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high, in order to play a cooling role and prevent high temperature operation from causing damage to the refrigeration module, the condenser fan can be turned on first for heat exchange to reduce the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module to the temperature requirement for safe startup of the compressor, and then the evaporator fan and the compressor can be turned on for refrigeration to ensure that the compressor will not be damaged due to excessive temperature, thereby being able to more efficiently reduce the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module and the indoor ambient temperature.

[0052] Specifically, the maximum critical temperature value that the refrigeration module can support after startup can be pre-set, and the maximum critical temperature value is used as the first temperature threshold. Among them, the first temperature threshold can be any temperature between 0 and 100°C, which can be set according to the actual application scenario and is not specifically limited here. Then, after detecting the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module, the detected working environment temperature is compared with the pre-set first temperature threshold, and it is confirmed whether the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high according to the comparison result. When the comparison result is that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module exceeds the pre-set first temperature threshold, it is considered that the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high; when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module does not exceed the first temperature threshold, it is considered that the refrigeration module is currently at a normal working environment temperature.

[0053] Since the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module may include the internal environment temperature inside the cavity of the refrigeration module, and the heat conduction temperature between the refrigeration module and each heat source module included in the integrated stove, when confirming whether the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high, in order to improve the flexibility of over-temperature detection, it can be specifically: any one of the heat conduction temperature and the internal environment temperature is used as the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module. That is, when any temperature value of the heat conduction temperature and the internal environment temperature is higher than the first temperature threshold, it is considered that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module exceeds the preset first temperature threshold; in order to improve the accuracy of over-temperature detection, it can also be: the minimum value of the heat conduction temperature and the internal environment temperature is used as the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module. That is, when the minimum value of the heat conduction temperature and the internal environment temperature exceeds the preset first temperature threshold, it is considered that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module exceeds the first temperature threshold, etc.

[0054] In one embodiment, in order to improve the over-temperature detection efficiency, the maximum value of the heat conduction temperature and the internal environment temperature is preferably used as the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module. That is, when the maximum value of the heat conduction temperature and the internal environment temperature exceeds a preset first temperature threshold, it is considered that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module exceeds the first temperature threshold. Correspondingly, when the maximum value of the heat conduction temperature and the internal environment temperature does not exceed the first temperature threshold, it is considered that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module does not exceed the first temperature threshold.

[0055] If it is determined through the above method that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module exceeds the pre-set first temperature threshold, that is, the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module exceeds the temperature at which the compressor can start normally, in order to effectively reduce the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module without causing damage to the compressor, the compressor and the evaporator fan may not be turned on first, and only the condenser fan may be turned on to lower the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module.

[0056] Of course, in order to further improve the cooling effect, in some other embodiments, when the condenser fan is turned on for cooling, the evaporator fan can also be controlled to reverse to assist the condenser fan in heat dissipation and accelerate the reduction of the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module.

[0057] In addition, in one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, after step S10, the control method of the integrated stove further includes:

[0058] Step S21: If the working environment temperature is less than or equal to a first temperature threshold, the condenser fan, the evaporator fan and the compressor are controlled to turn on.

[0059] That is, if the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is determined by the above method to be less than the preset first temperature threshold, it means that the compressor can be started normally without shutting down due to overheating protection or being damaged due to overtemperature. At this time, the condenser fan, the evaporator fan and the compressor can be turned on at the same time to reduce the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module more quickly and effectively while reducing the indoor environment temperature.

[0060] Step S30: After the working environment temperature drops to less than or equal to a first temperature threshold, controlling the evaporator fan and the compressor to turn on.

[0061] After the condenser fan is turned on, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module can be further detected, and the working environment temperature at this time can be compared with the preset first temperature threshold. If the comparison result shows that the working environment temperature at this time has been reduced to no longer exceed the first temperature threshold, it means that the compressor can be started normally without overheating protection or damage to the compressor. At this time, the evaporator fan and the compressor can be turned on for cooling to accelerate the reduction of the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module and the indoor environment temperature.

[0062] In this embodiment, when the refrigeration mode start instruction is received, the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is compared with the first temperature threshold to confirm whether the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high. Then, when it is confirmed that the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high, the condenser fan is first turned on to cool down the temperature, and the working environment temperature is reduced to no longer exceed the first temperature threshold, and then the evaporator fan and the compressor are turned on. This can avoid starting the compressor when the temperature is too high, which will cause damage to the compressor or shut down due to overheating protection, and starting the evaporator fan when the temperature is too high will cause the evaporator fan to blow out hot air, which is not conducive to refrigeration. In this way, when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high, the condenser fan is first turned on to cool down the temperature, and then the evaporator fan and the compressor are turned on, which can improve the refrigeration reliability of the refrigeration module of the integrated stove.

[0063] Based on the above embodiment, another embodiment of the control method of the multi-split air conditioner of the present invention is proposed. Figure 4 In this embodiment, after step S30 or step S21, the control method of the integrated stove further includes:

[0064] Step S40: After turning on the compressor, obtaining the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module;

[0065] Step S50: If the working environment temperature is greater than or equal to a second temperature threshold, increasing the rotation speed of the condenser fan.

[0066] After starting the compressor, the speed of the condenser fan can be adjusted according to the current working environment temperature to accelerate the discharge of hot air and prevent the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module from failing to effectively reduce the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module in a timely manner, causing the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module to reach the maximum temperature critical value allowed during the operation of the refrigeration module, thereby causing damage to the refrigeration module.

[0067] Specifically, the maximum critical temperature value allowed when the refrigeration module is running can be pre-set, and the maximum critical temperature value is used as the second temperature threshold. Among them, the second temperature threshold can be any temperature between 0-100°C, which can be set according to the actual application scenario, and is not specifically limited here. Then, after the compressor is turned on, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module at this time can be further obtained, and the working environment temperature at this time can be compared with the pre-set second temperature threshold to confirm whether the working environment temperature when the refrigeration module is running is too high according to the comparison result. Among them, when the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is not lower than the second temperature threshold, it is considered that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high; when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is less than the second temperature threshold, it is considered that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is normal. As for how to determine whether the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is less than the second temperature threshold, it can be determined by referring to the method listed in the previous embodiment, and it will not be repeated here.

[0068] When the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is not lower than the second temperature threshold, it means that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high. At this time, the hot air can be accelerated to be discharged from the air duct where the condenser is located by increasing the speed of the condenser fan, thereby accelerating the reduction of the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module and the indoor environment temperature. As for how much the speed of the condenser fan increases, it can be determined according to the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold. Among them, the greater the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold, the greater the speed of the condenser fan. For example, the mapping relationship between the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold and the speed of the condenser fan can be pre-set to determine the target speed of the condenser fan corresponding to different working environment temperatures according to the mapping relationship, and then the speed of the condenser fan is increased to the target speed corresponding to the current working environment temperature, so as to achieve an effective reduction in the indoor environment temperature and the working environment temperature. In addition, when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is currently lower than the second temperature threshold, it means that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is normal, and the existing operating state can be maintained for operation.

[0069] In one embodiment, a shunt pipe is provided at the outlet of the heat exchange air duct of the refrigeration module, and the shunt pipe may include a return pipe and a discharge pipe, wherein the return pipe is used to return the gas after heat exchange by the evaporator to the heat exchange air duct, and the discharge pipe is used to discharge the gas after heat exchange by the evaporator to the indoor environment, and a shunt valve is provided in the shunt pipe. When the shunt valve is opened, the return pipe and the heat exchange air duct are in a connected state, at which time, part of the gas after heat exchange by the evaporator can be returned to the heat exchange air duct through the return pipe, and part of the gas after heat exchange by the evaporator can be discharged to the indoor environment through the discharge pipe; when the shunt valve is closed, the return pipe and the heat exchange air duct are in a blocked state, at which time, part of the gas after heat exchange by the evaporator can only be discharged to the indoor environment through the discharge pipe, and the gas after heat exchange by the evaporator cannot be returned to the heat exchange air duct through the return pipe.

[0070] When the indoor air enters the evaporator from the skirting of the integrated stove, the indoor ambient temperature can be lowered by blowing cold air into the room through the refrigeration module, but the internal ambient temperature in the wall of the refrigeration module cannot be effectively lowered. Therefore, when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high, in order to further improve the refrigeration reliability and avoid damage to the refrigeration module caused by excessive temperature, the diverter valve set in the diverter pipe of the refrigeration module can be opened while increasing the condenser fan, so that not only the cold air after the evaporator heat exchange can be blown into the room through the diverter pipe to lower the indoor ambient temperature, but also part of the cold air after the evaporator heat exchange can be returned to the heat exchange pipe to lower the ambient temperature inside the refrigeration module. As for the specific amount of return cold air returned to the heat exchange pipe, it can be controlled by the opening of the diverter valve, and different diverter valve openings correspond to different amounts of return cold air. The opening of the diverter valve can be specifically determined according to the difference between the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module and the second temperature threshold. Among them, the larger the difference, the larger the opening of the diverter valve. For example, a mapping relationship between the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold and the opening of the diverter valve may be pre-established to control the opening of the diverter valve according to the mapping relationship, which is not specifically limited here.

[0071] Furthermore, a smoke exhaust fan is provided in the smoke exhaust duct of the integrated stove, and the smoke exhaust duct is connected to the duct where the condenser in the refrigeration module is located, that is, the hot air generated after heat exchange with the condenser will be transported from the duct where the condenser is located to the smoke exhaust duct, and then discharged from the smoke exhaust duct to the outside. When the smoke exhaust fan in the smoke exhaust duct is turned on, a negative pressure will be formed in the smoke exhaust duct. At this time, the pressure in the smoke exhaust duct will be lower than the pressure in the duct where the condenser is located, thereby accelerating the hot air generated after heat exchange with the condenser to be discharged from the duct where the condenser is located to the smoke exhaust duct, and then discharged from the smoke exhaust duct to the outside.

[0072] Therefore, after opening the diverter valve provided in the diverter pipe of the refrigeration module, in order to more effectively reduce the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module, the exhaust fan in the integrated stove can also be controlled to assist the condenser fan in exhausting heat through the exhaust fan. When controlling the exhaust fan, the control method adopted is related to the switch state of the exhaust fan in the integrated stove. Therefore, before controlling the exhaust fan, the switch state of the exhaust fan must be detected first, and then the exhaust fan must be controlled in a targeted manner according to the switch state of the exhaust fan.

[0073] On the one hand, after the diverter valve provided at the air outlet of the refrigeration module is opened, if the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is still detected to be not lower than the second temperature threshold within the preset time, when the smoke exhaust fan is detected to be in the closed state, the smoke exhaust fan can be started first to make the smoke exhaust fan run at the initial speed. After the main smoke exhaust fan is started, a negative pressure will be formed in the smoke exhaust duct, accelerating the hot air after heat exchange with the condenser to flow from the duct where the condenser is located to the smoke exhaust duct, thereby more efficiently discharging the hot air to the outside. After the smoke exhaust fan is started for a period of time, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module continues to be detected. If the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is still not lower than the second temperature threshold at this time, the speed of the smoke exhaust fan can be further increased to increase the negative pressure in the smoke exhaust duct, thereby increasing the flow rate of the hot air after heat exchange with the condenser from the duct where the condenser is located to the smoke exhaust duct, and further accelerating the discharge of the hot air. As for the specific increase in the speed of the smoke exhaust fan, it can also be determined according to the difference between the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module and the second temperature threshold. The larger the difference, the larger the speed of the smoke exhaust fan. The specific determination method may be: pre-establishing a mapping relationship between the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold and the speed of the smoke exhaust fan, and then determining the speed of the smoke exhaust fan corresponding to the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module according to the pre-established mapping relationship, and increasing the speed of the smoke exhaust fan to the determined speed of the smoke exhaust fan, etc., which is not specifically limited here.

[0074] After starting the smoke exhaust fan, in order to avoid waste of resources, after the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module drops to a certain temperature, the speed of the condenser fan can be reduced to the initial speed, and the smoke exhaust fan and the diverter valve can be closed to avoid the condenser fan still running at a high speed while the smoke exhaust fan and the diverter valve are still in the open state, which will cause the indoor ambient temperature to be too low and affect the user's comfort in the environment where the integrated stove is located.

[0075] Specifically, a critical temperature value for closing the auxiliary heat exhaust can be pre-set, and the critical temperature value is used as the third temperature threshold. Among them, the third temperature threshold can be any temperature between 0-100°C, and the set third temperature threshold must be lower than the set second temperature threshold. It can be set according to the actual application scenario, and is not specifically limited here. Then, after starting the smoke exhaust fan, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is detected again, and the working environment temperature at this time is compared with the pre-set third temperature threshold. When the comparison result is that the working environment temperature at this time is lower than the pre-set third temperature threshold, it means that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is low. At this time, the speed of the condenser fan can be reduced to the initial speed, and the smoke exhaust fan and the diverter valve can be closed to reduce the energy consumption at this time. When the comparison result is that the working environment temperature at this time is not lower than the third temperature threshold and the working environment temperature at this time is lower than the second temperature threshold, continue to operate in the current state.

[0076] On the other hand, after the diverter valve provided at the air outlet of the refrigeration module is opened, if it is detected that the smoke exhaust fan is in the open state, in order to further reduce the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module, the speed of the smoke exhaust fan can be increased to increase the negative pressure formed in the outlet air duct of the condenser fan for exhausting hot air, accelerate the hot air to flow from the air duct where the condenser is located to the smoke exhaust air duct, and thus accelerate the discharge of the hot air. As for how much the speed of the smoke exhaust fan is increased, it can be determined by referring to the above embodiment, and will not be described here.

[0077] Furthermore, after increasing the speed of the smoke exhaust fan, in order to avoid wasting resources, after the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is lowered to a certain temperature, the speed of the condenser fan and the speed of the smoke exhaust fan can be reduced to the initial speed, and the diverter valve can be closed to prevent the condenser fan and the smoke exhaust fan from still running at a higher speed and the diverter valve from still being in the open state, resulting in the indoor ambient temperature being too low, which will affect the user's comfort in the environment where the integrated stove is located.

[0078] Specifically, after increasing the speed of the smoke exhaust fan, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module can be detected again, and the working environment temperature at this time can be compared with the preset third temperature threshold. When the comparison result shows that the working environment temperature at this time is lower than the preset third temperature threshold, it means that the current working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is relatively low. At this time, the speed of the condenser fan and the smoke exhaust fan can be reduced to the initial speed, and the diverter valve can be closed to reduce the energy consumption at this time. When the comparison result shows that the working environment temperature at this time is not lower than the third temperature threshold, and the working environment temperature at this time is lower than the second temperature threshold, the current state is maintained.

[0079] Of course, in some other embodiments, after the compressor is turned on, when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is not lower than the second temperature threshold, it can also be selected according to the actual situation and actual needs to "increase the speed of the condenser fan", "open the diverter valve", "start the smoke exhaust fan or increase the speed of the smoke exhaust fan" At least one of the methods is executed. For example, when the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold is within the first difference range, you can choose to enable the three methods at the same time; when the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold is within the second difference range, you can choose to enable at least two of the above three methods at the same time; when the difference between the working environment temperature and the second temperature threshold is within the third difference range, you can choose one of the three methods, etc., which is not specifically limited here. Among them, the first difference range is greater than the second difference range, and the second difference range is greater than the third difference range.

[0080] This embodiment increases the rotation speed of the condenser fan when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is not lower than the second temperature threshold, so that the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module can be reduced more quickly and effectively, and the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module can be reduced to less than the second temperature threshold, thereby avoiding damage to the refrigeration module caused by the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module rising to the second temperature threshold when the refrigeration module is running due to untimely refrigeration. Therefore, when the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module is too high when the refrigeration module is running, the working environment temperature of the refrigeration module can be timely and effectively cooled by increasing the rotation speed of the condenser fan, so as to improve the reliability of refrigeration of the refrigeration module.
