[0035] Combine Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an air conditioner, including: a housing 1, a wind deflector 3, a first oil baffle 4, and a second oil baffle 5. The housing 1 has an air outlet 2 provided at the front bottom. The wind deflector 3 is arranged outside the air outlet 2 and is connected to the housing 1 through a rotatable first link mechanism, and can be controlled to rotate to change the air outlet direction. The first oil baffle 4 is connected to the front part of the housing 1 through a rotatable second link mechanism and is arranged below the outside of the wind deflector 3. The second oil baffle 5 is provided with a wind speed detection device 7 for detecting the air outlet wind speed at the upper part, and is connected to the lower part of the housing 1 through a third link mechanism 6 that can be pushed downward and rotated, and is arranged outside and below the wind deflector 3.

[0036] Optionally, the air conditioner further includes an odor sensor 8. The odor sensor 8 is arranged at the upper end outside the housing 1 and is used to detect whether there is cooking behavior in the kitchen.

[0037] Combined with Figure 4 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling an air conditioner, including:

[0038] S401, when there is cooking behavior in the kitchen, the air conditioner controls the wind deflector to rotate.

[0039] S402, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectories of the first oil baffle and the second oil baffle according to the air outlet wind speed and the movement trajectory of the wind deflector, so as to prevent oil fume from being adsorbed onto the wind deflector.

[0040] By adopting the method for controlling an air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, a first oil baffle and a second oil baffle can be arranged outside the wind deflector. When there is cooking behavior in the kitchen, the wind deflector is first controlled to rotate, and then the movement trajectories of the first oil baffle and the second oil baffle are controlled according to the air outlet wind speed and the movement trajectory of the wind deflector. This is beneficial to preventing oil fume from being adsorbed onto the wind deflector, keeping the wind deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0041] Optionally, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectories of the first oil baffle and the second oil baffle according to the air outlet wind speed and the movement trajectory of the wind deflector, including: when the air outlet wind speed is greater than a preset wind speed, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the first oil baffle to rotate counterclockwise to the preset position of the first oil baffle, and controls the movement trajectory of the second oil baffle to be pushed vertically downward to the preset position of the second oil baffle. The air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the second oil baffle according to the movement trajectory of the wind deflector. Wherein, the preset wind speed is the minimum wind speed for blowing away oil fume. In this way, it is beneficial to better control the movement trajectories of the first oil baffle and the second oil baffle according to the air outlet wind speed and the movement trajectory of the wind deflector. This is beneficial to better blowing away oil fume, preventing oil fume from being adsorbed onto the wind deflector, keeping the wind deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0042] Optionally, there is an associated relationship between the value of the preset wind speed and the air outlet mode. Specifically, when the air outlet mode is the normal wind speed mode, the value of the preset wind speed is the first preset wind speed. When the air outlet mode is the high wind mode, the value of the preset wind speed is the second preset wind speed. The first preset wind speed is less than the second preset wind speed. More specifically, the value of the first preset wind speed can be 3 m / s, and the value of the second preset wind speed can be 5 m / s. In this way, it is beneficial to better determine the preset wind speed according to the air outlet mode of the air conditioner, thereby facilitating better control of the movement trajectories of the first baffle and the second baffle based on the air outlet wind speed and the movement trajectory of the air deflector. Furthermore, it is beneficial to better blow away the oil fume, prevent the oil fume from adsorbing onto the air deflector, keep the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improve the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0043] Optionally, the preset position of the first baffle is the position where the first baffle is at a first preset angle upward from the horizontal direction. Specifically, the first preset angle can be 15°. In this way, rotating the first baffle to the preset position of the first baffle that does not interfere with the rotation of the air deflector and then controlling the rotation of the air deflector is beneficial for better air outlet and refrigeration, and improving the refrigeration effect.

[0044] Optionally, the preset position of the second baffle is the position where the second baffle is at a second preset angle downward from the horizontal direction and the linear distance from the air deflector is at a first preset distance. Specifically, the second preset angle can be 20°. The value of the first preset distance can be 30 cm. In this way, rotating the second baffle to the preset position of the second baffle is beneficial for taking into account both not interfering with the rotation of the air deflector and preventing the oil fume from adsorbing onto the air deflector, keeping the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0045] Optionally, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the second baffle according to the movement trajectory of the air deflector, including: when the movement trajectory of the air deflector is to rotate clockwise to the first preset position of the air deflector, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the second baffle to rotate counterclockwise to the third preset position of the baffle. When the movement trajectory of the air deflector is to swing freely between the first preset position of the air deflector and the second preset position of the air deflector, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the second baffle to rotate between the third preset position of the baffle and the fourth preset position of the baffle according to the angle between the air deflector and the horizontal direction. In this way, by controlling the rotation of the air deflector to the first preset position of the air deflector or swinging freely between the first preset position of the air deflector and the second preset position of the air deflector, and controlling the movement trajectory of the second baffle, it is beneficial for taking into account both not interfering with the rotation of the air deflector and preventing the oil fume from adsorbing onto the air deflector, keeping the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0046] Optionally, the preset position of the first air deflector is a position where the air deflector is at a third preset angle downward from the horizontal direction. Specifically, the value of the third preset angle can be 15°. In this way, it is beneficial to control the air conditioner to blow air upward and ensure the refrigeration effect.

[0047] Optionally, the preset position of the second air deflector is a position where the air deflector is at a fourth preset angle downward from the horizontal direction. Specifically, the value of the fourth preset angle can be 70°. In this way, it is beneficial to control the air deflector to blow air downward and ensure the refrigeration effect.

[0048] Optionally, the preset position of the third oil baffle is a position where the second oil baffle is at a fifth preset angle to the right of the vertical direction, and is also a position where the second oil baffle is at a sixth preset angle to the preset position of the first air deflector. Specifically, the value of the fifth preset angle can be 70°, and the value of the sixth preset angle can be 5°. In this way, controlling the air deflector to swing freely between the preset position of the first air deflector and the preset position of the second air deflector, so as to control the movement trajectory of the second oil baffle to rotate between the preset position of the third oil baffle and the preset position of the fourth oil baffle, is beneficial to taking into account both not interfering with the rotation of the air deflector and avoiding oil fume from being adsorbed onto the air deflector, keeping the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0049] Optionally, the preset position of the fourth oil baffle is a position where the second oil baffle is at a seventh preset angle to the right of the vertical direction, and is also a position where the second oil baffle is at an eighth preset angle to the preset position of the second air deflector. Specifically, the value of the seventh preset angle can be 0°, and the value of the eighth preset angle can be 20°. In this way, controlling the air deflector to swing freely between the preset position of the first air deflector and the preset position of the second air deflector, so as to control the movement trajectory of the second oil baffle to rotate between the preset position of the third oil baffle and the preset position of the fourth oil baffle, is beneficial to taking into account both not interfering with the rotation of the air deflector and avoiding oil fume from being adsorbed onto the air deflector, keeping the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0050] Optionally, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the oil baffle to rotate between the preset position of the third oil baffle and the preset position of the fourth oil baffle according to the angle between the air deflector and the horizontal direction, including: the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the oil baffle to rotate between the preset position of the third oil baffle and the preset position of the fourth oil baffle, so that the angle between the second oil baffle and the vertical direction is negatively correlated with the angle between the air deflector and the horizontal direction. In this way, controlling the air deflector to swing freely between the preset position of the first air deflector and the preset position of the second air deflector, so as to control the movement trajectory of the second oil baffle to rotate between the preset position of the third oil baffle and the preset position of the fourth oil baffle, is beneficial to taking into account both not interfering with the rotation of the air deflector and avoiding oil fume from being adsorbed onto the air deflector, keeping the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0051] Optionally, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the second baffle to rotate between the preset position of the third baffle and the preset position of the fourth baffle, so that the angle between the second baffle and the vertical direction is negatively correlated with the angle between the air deflector and the horizontal direction, including: when the angle between the air deflector and the horizontal plane is the angle between the first preset position of the air deflector and the horizontal plane, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the second baffle to rotate to the preset position of the third baffle. When the angle between the air deflector and the horizontal plane is the angle between the second preset position of the air deflector and the horizontal plane, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectory of the second baffle to rotate to the preset position of the fourth baffle. In this way, the air deflector is controlled to swing freely between the first preset position of the air deflector and the second preset position of the air deflector, so as to control the movement trajectory of the second baffle to rotate between the preset position of the third baffle and the preset position of the fourth baffle, which is beneficial to both not interfering with the rotation of the air deflector and avoiding oil fume from being adsorbed on the air deflector, keeping the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improving the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0052] Combined with Figure 5 As shown in

[0053] S501, the air conditioner detects whether there is a cooking behavior in the kitchen.

[0054] S502, when there is a cooking behavior in the kitchen, the air conditioner controls the air deflector to rotate.

[0055] S503, the air conditioner controls the movement trajectories of the first baffle and the second baffle according to the air outlet speed and the movement trajectory of the air deflector to avoid oil fume from being adsorbed on the air deflector.

[0056] By using the method for controlling the air conditioner provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first baffle and the second baffle can be arranged outside the air deflector, and when there is a cooking behavior in the kitchen, the air deflector is first controlled to rotate, and then the movement trajectories of the first baffle and the second baffle are controlled according to the air outlet speed and the movement trajectory of the air deflector. Therefore, it is beneficial to avoid oil fume from being adsorbed on the air deflector, keep the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improve the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner.

[0057] Combined with Figure 6 As shown in

[0058] S601, the air conditioner detects whether there is a cooking behavior in the kitchen.

[0059] S602, when there is a cooking behavior in the kitchen, the air conditioner controls the air deflector to rotate.

[0060] S603. The air conditioner controls the movement trajectories of the first baffle and the second baffle according to the air outlet speed and the movement trajectory of the air deflector to prevent oil fume from being adsorbed onto the air deflector.

[0061] S604. When there is no cooking activity in the kitchen, the air conditioner controls the first baffle to rotate counterclockwise and the second baffle to rotate clockwise.

[0062] S605. When the first baffle rotates to the preset position of the first baffle and the second baffle rotates to the preset position of the second baffle, the air conditioner controls the air deflector to rotate.

[0063] By using the method for controlling an air conditioner provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first baffle and the second baffle can be arranged outside the air deflector. When there is cooking activity in the kitchen, the air deflector is first controlled to rotate, and then the movement trajectories of the first baffle and the second baffle are controlled according to the air outlet speed and the movement trajectory of the air deflector. This helps to prevent oil fume from being adsorbed onto the air deflector, keeps the air deflector of the air conditioner clean, and improves the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner. When there is no cooking activity in the kitchen, the first baffle and the second baffle are first controlled to be adjusted to positions that do not interfere with the rotation of the air deflector, and then the air deflector is controlled to rotate, which is beneficial for better air outlet and refrigeration and improves the refrigeration effect.
