Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air-conditioning equipment, and in particular to air-conditioning equipment and a method for adjusting its operating parameters. Background Art
[0002] As users' demand for intelligent home appliances increases, air-conditioning equipment can automatically determine the operating mode corresponding to the ambient temperature based on the detected ambient temperature, such as running in heating mode when the ambient temperature is very low, or running in cooling mode when the ambient temperature is very high.
[0003] However, when operating in each mode, the operating temperature of the air conditioner is determined based on the ambient temperature. This only considers the relationship between ambient temperature and operating temperature, without intelligently factoring in the user's desired temperature. Consequently, existing air conditioners, under the same ambient temperature, can only operate at the same operating temperature for users with different needs. They cannot provide different operating temperatures for different user types within the same operating mode, resulting in a poor user experience for users with specialized needs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The embodiment of the present application provides an air-conditioning device and a method for adjusting its operating parameters, so as to at least solve the problem in the related art that the air-conditioning device cannot provide different operating temperatures for different types of users under the same operating mode, resulting in poor user experience.
[0005] In a first aspect, an air-conditioning device is provided, comprising a controller, and an indoor unit, an outdoor unit, and a temperature detection device connected to the controller; the indoor unit and the outdoor unit are connected via a pipeline; the temperature detection device is configured to detect a first temperature of a first part of a user and a second temperature of a second part of a user; the controller is configured to control the flow direction of the refrigerant in the pipeline to determine an operating mode of the air-conditioning device; the controller is further configured to: obtain a first target temperature and a second target temperature of the target user from the temperature detection device in response to a target operating instruction of the target user to the air-conditioning device; the target operating instruction instructs the air-conditioning device to operate in a target operating mode; determine a target user type to which the target user belongs from the user type based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature; and adjust preset operating parameters corresponding to the target operating mode based on the target user type to obtain target operating parameters.
[0006] The beneficial effects achieved by the embodiments of the present application are as follows: when the target user turns on the air-conditioning device and prepares to operate in the target mode, the temperature detection device is first controlled to detect the temperature of the first part and the second part of the target user, so as to obtain the first target temperature and the second target temperature from the temperature detection device. The controller then determines the user type to which the target user belongs, i.e., the target user type, based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature. Based on the operating parameters adapted to the target user type, the pre-set preset operating parameters are adjusted to determine the target operating parameters under the target operating mode for the user type to which the target user belongs, thereby enabling the air-conditioning device to provide different operating parameters for different user types under the same operating mode to meet the different needs of different users for the air-conditioning device.
[0007] Therefore, the air-conditioning equipment can automatically determine the target user type to which the target user belongs based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature of the temperature detection device, and at the same time adjust the preset operating parameters corresponding to the target operating mode based on the parameter requirements corresponding to the target user type to ensure that the target operating parameters are adapted to the user type of the target user, thereby ensuring the comfort of the target user using the air-conditioning equipment and improving the user's usage effect.
[0008] In some embodiments, user types include a first type, a second type, and a third type, and one indoor temperature corresponds to a set of ratio threshold values, and a set of ratio threshold values includes a first ratio threshold corresponding to the first type, a second ratio threshold corresponding to the second type, and a third ratio threshold corresponding to the third type; the controller is also configured to: determine the ratio threshold value set corresponding to the current indoor temperature as a target ratio threshold value set according to the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the ratio threshold value set, and the target ratio threshold value set includes a first target ratio threshold value, a second target ratio threshold value, and a third target ratio threshold value; determine the first type target threshold value and the second type target threshold value according to the first target ratio threshold value, the second target ratio threshold value, and the third target ratio threshold value; the first type target threshold value is the average value of the first target ratio threshold value and the second target ratio threshold value; the second type target threshold value is the average value of the second target ratio threshold value and the third target ratio threshold value.
[0009] The first type mentioned above is the heat-loving type; the second type is the type that likes neither heat nor cold; and the third type is the cold-loving type.
[0010] In this embodiment, the air conditioning system is pre-classified into three user types. Each user type corresponds to a different set of ratio thresholds at different indoor temperatures. This set of ratio thresholds includes three ratio thresholds, the same number as the number of user types. Therefore, if both the indoor temperature and the user type are fixed, the set of ratio thresholds is also fixed.
[0011] Based on this, this embodiment determines the target ratio threshold through the correspondence between the indoor environment and the ratio threshold set, and thus obtains the first type target threshold and the second type target threshold for determining the target user type based on the target ratio threshold, providing a basis for determining the target user type.
[0012] In some embodiments, when the controller determines the target user type to which the target user belongs from the user type based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature of the target user, the controller is specifically configured as follows: when the target ratio of the first target temperature to the second target temperature is less than or equal to the first type target threshold, the target user type is the first type; when the target ratio is greater than the first type target threshold and less than the second type target threshold, the target user type is the second type; when the target ratio is greater than or equal to the second type target threshold, the target user type is the third type.
[0013] In this embodiment, the target user type is determined based on the three threshold ranges determined by the first type target threshold and the second type target threshold, and according to the range of the target ratio.
[0014] In some embodiments, the first fitting model represents the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the first ratio threshold, the second fitting model represents the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the second ratio threshold, and the third fitting model represents the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the third ratio threshold; when the controller executes the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the ratio threshold set, and determines the ratio threshold set corresponding to the current indoor temperature as the target ratio threshold set, it is specifically configured as follows: inputting the current indoor temperature into the first fitting model to obtain the first target ratio threshold; inputting the current indoor temperature into the second fitting model to obtain the second target ratio threshold; inputting the current indoor temperature into the third fitting model to obtain the third target ratio threshold.
[0015] In some embodiments, the user type includes a first type, a second type, and a third type; the controller is further configured as: when the difference between the first target temperature and the second target temperature is less than or equal to a first difference threshold, the target user type is the first type; when the difference is greater than the first difference threshold and less than the second difference threshold, the target user type is the second type; when the difference is greater than or equal to the second difference threshold, the target user type is the third type; the first difference threshold and the second difference threshold correspond to the current indoor temperature.
[0016] The current indoor temperature is the target indoor temperature or the target ambient temperature.
[0017] In this embodiment, different indoor temperatures correspond to different difference threshold sets. When there are three types of users, the difference threshold set includes two difference thresholds. Therefore, based on the three types of users, when the indoor temperature is constant, the two difference thresholds are also constant.
[0018] Based on this, this embodiment can determine the first and second difference thresholds for the target indoor temperature based on the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the difference threshold set, thereby forming different difference ranges. The target user type is then determined based on the difference range within which the difference between the first and second target temperatures falls.
[0019] In some embodiments, the controller executes an adjustment on the preset operating parameters corresponding to the target operating mode according to the target user type, and when the target operating parameters are obtained, it is specifically configured as follows: when the target user type is the first type, if the target operating mode is the heating mode, the preset operating parameters are adjusted first, and the target operating parameters are obtained. The first preset adjustment on the preset operating parameters includes at least one or more of the following adjustment methods: increasing the preset air outlet temperature by a first preset temperature value, increasing the preset air outlet angle by a first preset angle value, and adjusting the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area includes the target user; when the target operating mode is the cooling mode, the preset operating parameters are adjusted second, and the target operating parameters are obtained. The second preset adjustment on the preset operating parameters includes at least one or more of the following adjustment methods: increasing the preset air outlet temperature by a second preset temperature value, decreasing the preset air outlet angle by a second preset angle value, and adjusting the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area does not include the target user.
[0020] In this embodiment, if the target user type is the first type, it means that the target user is a user with a heat-loving physique and prefers a higher indoor temperature than people with normal physiques. When the operating mode set by the user is heating mode, the hot air volume, hot air temperature, and area covered by the hot air in the heating mode are all increased to increase the temperature of the area where the heat-loving user is located in the heating mode. When the operating mode set by the user is cooling mode, the cold air volume and area covered by the cold air in the cooling mode are both reduced, and the cold air temperature is increased to increase the temperature of the area where the heat-loving user is located in the cooling mode.
[0021] Based on this, for the first type of users with a heat-loving constitution, in various operating modes, the preset operating parameters are adjusted with the purpose of increasing the user's perceived temperature.
[0022] In some embodiments, the controller is further configured to: when the target user type is the third type, if the target operating mode is the heating mode, perform a third preset adjustment on the preset operating parameters to obtain the target operating parameters; perform the third preset adjustment on the preset operating parameters at least including one or more of the following adjustment methods: lower the preset air outlet temperature by a third preset temperature value, reduce the preset air outlet angle by a third preset angle value; adjust the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area does not include the target user; when the target operating mode is the cooling mode, perform a fourth preset adjustment on the preset operating parameters to obtain the target operating parameters; perform the fourth preset adjustment on the preset operating parameters at least including one or more of the following adjustment methods: lower the preset air outlet temperature by a fourth preset temperature value, increase the preset air outlet angle by a fourth preset angle value, and adjust the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area includes the target user.
[0023] In this embodiment, if the target user type is the third type, it means that the target user has a cold-preferring physique and prefers a cooler indoor environment than people with normal physiques. When the operating mode set by the user is heating mode, the hot air volume, hot air temperature, and the area covered by the hot air in the heating mode are all reduced to reduce the temperature in the area where the user with a cold-preferring physique is located in heating mode. When the operating mode set by the user is cooling mode, the cold air volume and the area covered by the cold air in the cooling mode are both increased, and the cold air temperature is lowered to reduce the temperature in the area where the user with a cold-preferring physique is located in cooling mode.
[0024] Based on this, for the second type of users who prefer cold body constitution, in various operating modes, the preset operating parameters are adjusted with the purpose of lowering the user's perceived temperature.
[0025] In some embodiments, the controller is further configured to: when the target user type is the second type, determine the preset operating parameters as the target operating parameters.
[0026] In this embodiment, the target user type is the second type, which means that the target user is a normal physique user who does not like cold or heat. In this case, there is no need to adjust the preset operating parameters. Directly using the preset operating parameters and running under the target operating parameters can meet the temperature requirements of the normal physique user.
[0027] In some embodiments, the first part is a hand or a foot, and the second part is a head.
[0028] Based on this embodiment, the first target temperature is the hand or foot temperature of the target user detected by the temperature detection device. The second target temperature is the head temperature of the target user detected by the temperature detection device.
[0029] In a second aspect, a method for adjusting operating parameters of an air-conditioning device is provided, the method comprising: obtaining a first target temperature and a second target temperature of the target user from a temperature detection device in response to a target operating instruction of the target user to the air-conditioning device; determining a target user type to which the target user belongs from a user type based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature; the target operating instruction instructs the air-conditioning device to operate in a target operating mode; the first target temperature is a first temperature of a first part of the target user and the second target temperature is a second temperature of a second part of the target user; and adjusting the preset operating parameters corresponding to the target operating mode according to the target user type to obtain target operating parameters.

[0045] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments.

Thus, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. Throughout this application, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.
[0047] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "connected" and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0048] In the embodiments of this application, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of this application should not be interpreted as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a concrete manner.
[0049] As users' demand for intelligent home appliances increases, air-conditioning equipment can automatically determine the operating mode corresponding to the ambient temperature based on the detected ambient temperature, such as running in heating mode when the ambient temperature is very low, or running in cooling mode when the ambient temperature is very high.
[0050] However, when operating in each mode, the operating temperature of the air conditioner is determined based on the ambient temperature. This only considers the relationship between ambient temperature and operating temperature, without intelligently factoring in the user's desired temperature. Consequently, existing air conditioners, under the same ambient temperature, can only operate at the same operating temperature for users with different needs. They cannot provide different operating temperatures for different user types within the same operating mode, resulting in a poor user experience for users with specialized needs.
[0051] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides an air-conditioning device. When the target user turns on the air-conditioning device and prepares to operate in a target mode, the controller of the air-conditioning device first controls the temperature detection device to detect the temperature of the first part and the second part of the target user, so as to obtain the first target temperature and the second target temperature from the temperature detection device. The controller then determines the user type to which the target user belongs, that is, the target user type, based on the temperature ratio of the first target temperature and the second target temperature. Based on the operating parameters adapted to the target user type, the pre-set preset operating parameters are adjusted to determine the target operating parameters under the target operating mode for the user type to which the target user belongs, thereby enabling the air-conditioning device to provide different operating parameters for different user types under the same operating mode to meet the different needs of different users for the air-conditioning device.
[0052] Therefore, the air-conditioning equipment can automatically determine the target user type to which the target user belongs based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature of the temperature detection device, and at the same time adjust the preset operating parameters corresponding to the target operating mode based on the parameter requirements corresponding to the target user type to ensure that the target operating parameters are adapted to the user type of the target user, thereby ensuring the comfort of the target user using the air-conditioning equipment and improving the user's usage effect.
[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the air-conditioning equipment may be a multi-split air-conditioning equipment or a single-unit air-conditioning equipment, etc. The multi-split air-conditioning equipment includes one outdoor unit and multiple indoor units, while the single-unit air-conditioning equipment includes one outdoor unit and one corresponding indoor unit.
[0054] To further describe the solution of the present application, a structural diagram of an air-conditioning device provided in an embodiment of the present application is introduced below by taking a single-unit air-conditioning device as an example.
[0055] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The air conditioning device 100 may include: a temperature detection device 101, an outdoor unit 200, an indoor unit 300 and a controller 103. The controller 103 is connected to the indoor unit 300, the outdoor unit 200, the temperature detection device 101; the indoor unit 300 and the outdoor unit 200 through pipelines.
[0056] The outdoor unit 200 includes an outdoor heat exchanger 201 , a compressor 202 , a four-way valve 203 , a bypass stop valve 204 , an outdoor solenoid valve 205 , and an outdoor throttling device 206 .
[0057] In some embodiments, the temperature detection device 101 is used to collect a first temperature of a first part and a second temperature of a second part of a user.
[0058] Exemplarily, the temperature detection device 101 includes an image acquisition unit, an image processing unit, an image output unit, and a target part extraction unit. The image acquisition unit acquires a portrait of the target user to obtain image data. The image processing unit sequentially performs the following processing on the image data: data preprocessing, image noise reduction and filtering, and image histogram processing. The target part extraction unit, after obtaining the processed image data output by the image output unit, extracts the target user to obtain a human body frame image of the target user. Then, based on the characteristics of the target part, the target part of the target user is extracted from the human body frame image to accurately obtain the temperature of the target part.
[0059] Specifically, through the above-mentioned data preprocessing, bad pixels in the image data can be removed, and at the same time, the bad pixels are corrected to obtain uniform image data that removes the pot lid effect. Furthermore, through the above-mentioned image noise reduction and filtering processing, the vertical stripes in the image are removed to obtain low-noise image data with a higher signal-to-noise ratio. Furthermore, in the process of image histogram processing of the image data, a main peak smoothing parameter is added, and the image stretching strength is changed by changing the main peak suppression width. When obtaining the main peak of the image, smoothing and multi-frame processing are adopted to avoid image oscillation caused by drastic changes in the main peak, thereby improving image contrast and solving the problems of uniform picture and image flicker.
[0060] In some embodiments, the temperature detection device 101 includes an infrared temperature measurement imaging sensor.
[0061] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit further includes an outdoor liquid pipe temperature sensor 207 .
[0062] In some embodiments, the compressor 202, four-way valve 203, outdoor heat exchanger 201 in the outdoor unit 200 and the indoor expansion valve, indoor heat exchanger, and circulation branch solenoid valve in each indoor unit are connected in sequence through pipelines to form a refrigerant circulation loop.
[0063] In some embodiments, one end of the outdoor heat exchanger 201 is connected to the compressor 202 via a four-way valve 203, and the other end is connected to the indoor heat exchanger. The outdoor heat exchanger 201 is used to exchange heat between the refrigerant flowing in the heat transfer pipe of the outdoor heat exchanger 201 and the outdoor air.
[0064] In some embodiments, compressor 202 is located between indoor heat exchanger 301 and outdoor heat exchanger 201 to power the refrigerant circulation. In cooling mode, for example, compressor 202 delivers compressed refrigerant to outdoor heat exchanger 201 via four-way valve 203. Alternatively, compressor 202 may be a variable-capacity inverter compressor 202 controlled by the inverter's speed.
[0065] In some embodiments, the four ports of the four-way valve 203 are connected to the exhaust port of the compressor 202, the outdoor heat exchanger 201, the intake port of the compressor 202, and the indoor heat exchangers of each indoor unit. The four-way valve 203 is used to switch between cooling mode and heating mode by changing the flow direction of the refrigerant within the system piping.
[0066] In some embodiments, the bypass stop valve 204 is disposed between the four-way valve 203 and the indoor heat exchanger of each indoor unit. After the air-conditioning equipment is installed, the bypass stop valve 204 remains in a normally open state.
[0067] In some embodiments, the outdoor solenoid valve 205 is disposed on the refrigerant bypass branch between the four-way valve 203 and each indoor heat exchanger to control the connection and cutoff of the refrigerant bypass branch.
[0068] In some embodiments, the outdoor throttling device 206 is disposed between the outdoor solenoid valve 205 and the compressor 202 to reduce the pressure of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant delivered from the compressor exhaust port. Exemplarily, the outdoor throttling device 206 may include an electronic expansion valve and / or a capillary tube.
[0069] Optionally, the outdoor throttling device 206 may also be provided between the outdoor solenoid valve 205 and the bypass stop valve 204. Optionally, the outdoor throttling device 206 may also be provided between the bypass stop valve 204 and each indoor unit. This application does not impose any limitation on this.
[0070] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit 200 further includes an outdoor fan (not shown in the figure), which generates an airflow of outdoor air through the outdoor heat exchanger 201 to promote heat exchange between the refrigerant flowing in the heat transfer pipe of the outdoor heat exchanger 201 and the outdoor air.
[0071] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit 200 further includes an outdoor fan motor (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the outdoor fan and is used to drive or change the speed of the outdoor fan.
[0072] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit 200 also includes a high-pressure pressure switch (not shown in the figure). There is an electrical connection between the high-pressure pressure switch and the controller 103, which is used to monitor the pressure of the air-conditioning pipeline. When the pipeline pressure of the air-conditioning equipment 100 is abnormal, the abnormal information is sent to the controller 103 so that the controller 103 controls the system to shut down and ensure the normal operation of the air-conditioning equipment 100.
[0073] Furthermore, the indoor unit 300 includes an indoor heat exchanger 301 , an indoor expansion valve 302 , a bypass branch solenoid valve 303 , and a circulation branch solenoid valve 304 .
[0074] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 300 further includes an indoor liquid pipe temperature sensor 305 and an indoor fan 306 .
[0075] In some embodiments, the exhaust port of the compressor 202 in the outdoor unit 200, the outdoor throttling device 206, the outdoor solenoid valve 205, the bypass stop valve 204 and the bypass branch solenoid valve and the indoor heat exchanger in the indoor unit are connected in sequence through pipes to form a refrigerant bypass branch.
[0076] In some embodiments, the indoor heat exchanger 301 is used to perform heat exchange between the refrigerant flowing in the heat transfer tube of the indoor heat exchanger 301 and the indoor air.
[0077] In some embodiments, the indoor expansion valve 302 is disposed between the indoor heat exchanger 301 and the outdoor heat exchanger 201 and has the function of expanding and reducing the pressure of the refrigerant flowing through the electronic expansion valve, and can be used to adjust the supply of the refrigerant in the pipeline.
[0078] Optionally, the air conditioner 100 may be equipped with multiple electronic expansion valves. When the opening of an electronic expansion valve decreases, the flow resistance of the refrigerant through the electronic expansion valve increases. When the opening of the electronic expansion valve increases, the flow resistance of the refrigerant through the electronic expansion valve decreases. In this way, even if the states of other components in the circuit remain unchanged, the refrigerant flow rate to the indoor heat exchanger 301 or the outdoor heat exchanger 201 will also change when the opening of the electronic expansion valve changes.
[0079] It should be noted that Figure 1 The number of electronic expansion valves shown is only an example and is not specifically limited in this application.
[0080] In some embodiments, the bypass branch solenoid valve 303 is disposed between the indoor heat exchanger 301 and the four-way valve 203 to control the connection and shutoff of the refrigerant bypass branch of a single indoor unit. It should be understood that the bypass branch solenoid valve 303 may also be disposed between the bypass shutoff valve 204 and the four-way valve 203, or between the indoor heat exchanger 301 and the four-way valve 203, as long as it is disposed on the main branch of the bypass refrigerant branch of each indoor unit, and this application is not limited thereto.
[0081] In some embodiments, the circulation branch solenoid valve 304 is disposed between the indoor heat exchanger 301 and the four-way valve 203 to control the connection and cutoff of the refrigerant circulation branch of a single indoor unit.
[0082] In some embodiments, the indoor liquid pipe temperature sensor 301 is disposed on the liquid pipe of the indoor heat exchanger 301 to detect the liquid pipe temperature of the indoor heat exchanger 301 .
[0083] In some embodiments, the indoor fan 306 generates an airflow of indoor air through the indoor heat exchanger 301 to promote heat exchange between the refrigerant flowing in the heat transfer tubes of the indoor heat exchanger 301 and the indoor air.
[0084] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 300 further includes an indoor fan motor (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the indoor fan and is used to drive or change the speed of the indoor fan.
[0085] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 300 further includes a plurality of capillary tubes (not shown in the figure) for reducing the refrigerant pressure in the pipeline and reducing the pressure of the high-pressure refrigerant delivered by the condenser and delivering it to the evaporator.
[0086] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 300 further includes a humidity sensor (not shown in the figure) for detecting the relative humidity of the indoor air.
[0087] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 300 further includes a dew point meter (not shown in the figure) for detecting the ambient dew point temperature near the indoor heat exchanger.
[0088] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 300 further includes a display 102. The display 102 is electrically connected to the controller 103.
[0089] Optionally, the display 102 is used to display a control panel of the air conditioning device 100 . For example, the display 102 can be used to display the indoor temperature or the current operating mode.
[0090] Optionally, the display 102 is connected to the controller 103 , and the user can perform operations and set programs on the control panel through the display 102 .
[0091] Optionally, the display 102 may transmit user instructions to the controller according to user gesture operations, such as pressing a button, to implement a human-computer interaction function.
[0092] Optionally, the display 102 may be a liquid crystal display 102 or an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display 102. The specific type, size, and resolution of the display 102 are not limited. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the display 102 may be modified in terms of performance and configuration as needed.
[0093] In some embodiments, the controller 103 refers to a device that can generate an operation control signal based on an instruction operation code and a timing signal to instruct the air conditioning device 100 to execute the control instruction. Exemplarily, the controller 103 can be a central processing unit (CPU), a general-purpose processor network processor (NP), a digital signal processor (DSP), a microprocessor, a microcontroller, a programmable logic device (PLD), or any combination thereof. The controller 103 can also be other devices with processing functions, such as circuits, devices, or software modules, and the embodiments of the present application do not impose any restrictions on this.
[0094] In some embodiments, the controller 103 can respond to a target user's target operation instruction for the air conditioner and, based on the target operation mode, determine the direction of control of the refrigerant flow in the pipeline and obtain the target user's first target temperature and second target temperature from the temperature detection device. The target user type is determined based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature; and the previously preset operating parameters in the target operation mode are adjusted accordingly based on whether the target user type has a high temperature preference or a low temperature preference.
[0095] although Figure 1Not shown, the air conditioning equipment 100 may also include a power supply device (such as a battery and a power management chip) to supply power to each component. The battery can be logically connected to the controller through the power management chip, thereby realizing functions such as power consumption management of the air conditioning equipment 100 through the power supply device.
[0096] Figure 2 The circuit system architecture diagram of the air-conditioning device 100 is shown as an example.
[0097] like Figure 2 As shown, the air conditioning device 100 may further include: an alarm 104 , a communication device 105 , a human-computer interaction device 106 and a power supply 107 .
[0098] Among them, the indoor heat exchanger 301 , the outdoor heat exchanger 201 , the temperature detection device 101 , the four-way valve 203 , the early warning device 104 , the communication device 105 , the human-computer interaction device 106 and the power supply 107 are all connected to the controller 103 .
[0099] In some embodiments, the communication device 105 is a component used to communicate with external devices or external servers according to various communication protocols. For example, the communication device may include at least one of a Wi-Fi chip, a Bluetooth communication protocol chip, a wired Ethernet communication protocol chip, or other network communication protocol chip or a near-field communication protocol chip, as well as an infrared receiver.
[0100] In some embodiments, the air conditioning device 100 can transmit control signals and data signals with a terminal device used by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a wearable mobile device, etc.), other household devices (e.g., an air conditioner, a monitoring device, etc.), or a server through the communication device 105. For example, a user issues an instruction to turn on an operating mode (e.g., turning on a heating mode, a cooling mode, a dehumidification mode, or a sterilization mode) through a mobile phone, and the air conditioning device 100 receives the instruction through the communication device 105. In response to the user's instruction to turn on the operating mode, the controller 103 of the air conditioning device 100 turns on the corresponding operating mode.
[0101] In some embodiments, a human-computer interaction device 106 is used to enable interaction between a user and the air conditioner 100. The human-computer interaction device 106 may include one or more of physical buttons, a touch display panel, or a voice recognition device. For example, a user can use the human-computer interaction device 106 to start the air conditioner 100 or set an operating program for the air conditioner 100.
[0102] In some embodiments, the power supply 107 , under the control of the controller 103 , uses the power input from the external power source to provide power supply support for the air conditioning device 100 .
[0103] Based on the above air conditioning equipment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an operating parameter adjustment method, which includes the following steps:
[0104] Step S301 : In response to a target operation instruction of a target user to an air-conditioning device, a first target temperature and a second target temperature of the target user are acquired from a temperature detection device.
[0105] The target operation instruction instructs the air conditioner to operate in the target operation mode. The first target temperature is the temperature of a first part of the target user, and the second target temperature is the temperature of a second part of the target user.
[0106] In some embodiments, the first part is a hand or foot, and the second part is a head. Based on this, the first target temperature is the hand or foot temperature of the target user detected by the temperature detection device. The second target temperature is the head temperature of the target user detected by the temperature detection device.
[0107] In this step, when the target user turns on the air-conditioning device and prepares to operate in the target mode, the temperature detection device is first controlled to detect the temperature of the first part and the second part of the target user.
[0108] Step S302 : determining the target user type to which the target user belongs from the user types according to the first target temperature and the second target temperature.
[0109] Normally, in a constant temperature environment, the temperature of a person's forehead remains relatively constant. However, due to individual physical preferences, some prefer cooler environments, while others prefer warmer ones. Consequently, the temperature difference between hand and head temperature, or between foot and head temperature, can vary significantly for different individuals. Specifically, in a constant environment, if a person's hand temperature is significantly lower than their forehead temperature, this indicates that they prefer a warmer body type and prefer warmer environments. If a person's hand temperature is close to or even higher than their forehead temperature, this indicates that they prefer a cooler body type and prefer cooler environments.
[0110] In a constant environment, if a person's hand temperature is significantly lower than the forehead temperature, this person has a heat-loving constitution and would prefer a higher temperature. If a person's hand temperature is close to or even higher than the forehead temperature, this person has a cold-loving constitution and would prefer a lower temperature.
[0111] Therefore, using the temperature difference or temperature ratio between the target user's hand temperature and forehead temperature can more accurately determine the target user's physical type.
[0112] Step S303: adjusting the preset operating parameters corresponding to the target operating mode according to the target user type to obtain target operating parameters.
[0113] In this step, the controller determines the user type of the target user, i.e., the target user type, based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature. The controller then adjusts the pre-set operating parameters based on the operating parameters appropriate for the target user type to determine the target operating parameters under the target operating mode for the target user type. This allows the air conditioner to provide different operating parameters for different user types under the same operating mode, thereby meeting the diverse needs of different users.
[0114] Figure 3 The technical solution shown brings at least the following beneficial effects: the air-conditioning equipment can automatically determine the target user type to which the target user belongs based on the first target temperature and the second target temperature of the temperature detection device, and at the same time, based on the parameter requirements corresponding to the target user type, adjust the preset operating parameters corresponding to the target operating mode to ensure that the target operating parameters are adapted to the user type of the target user, thereby ensuring the comfort of the target user using the air-conditioning equipment and improving the user's usage effect.
[0115] In some embodiments, user types include a first type, a second type, and a third type. One indoor temperature corresponds to a set of ratio thresholds, where the set of ratio thresholds includes a first ratio threshold corresponding to the first type, a second ratio threshold corresponding to the second type, and a third ratio threshold corresponding to the third type. Based on this embodiment, the controller may further perform the following steps before executing step S302 to determine a numerical basis for determining the target user type.
[0116] Specifically, the controller determines the ratio threshold set corresponding to the current indoor temperature as the target ratio threshold set based on the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the ratio threshold set, and determines the first type target threshold and the second type target threshold based on the first target ratio threshold, the second target ratio threshold, and the third target ratio threshold.
[0117] The above-mentioned target ratio threshold set includes a first target ratio threshold, a second target ratio threshold and a third target ratio threshold, and the first type target threshold is the average value of the first target ratio threshold and the second target ratio threshold, and the second type target threshold is the average value of the second target ratio threshold and the third target ratio threshold.
[0118] The first type mentioned above is the heat-loving type; the second type is the type that likes neither heat nor cold; and the third type is the cold-loving type.
[0119] In this embodiment, the air conditioning system is pre-classified into three user types. Each user type corresponds to a different set of ratio thresholds at different indoor temperatures. This set of ratio thresholds includes three ratio thresholds, the same number as the number of user types. Therefore, if both the indoor temperature and the user type are fixed, the set of ratio thresholds is also fixed.
[0120] Based on this, this embodiment determines the target ratio threshold through the correspondence between the indoor environment and the ratio threshold set, and thus obtains the first type target threshold and the second type target threshold for determining the target user type based on the target ratio threshold, providing a basis for determining the target user type.
[0121] In addition, it should be noted that the above three types are only examples. The number of types of corresponding user types does not affect the implementation of the implementation of the present application. That is, when N types is greater than 3, the implementation steps of the implementation are similar to those of the above three types. The implementation of this case will not be described in detail in this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the case of N = 3, that is, this application does not specifically limit the number of user types.
[0122] Specifically, the above user types can be further divided into N categories, where N is greater than or equal to 3, i.e., the user types are type 1, type 2, type 3, and so on. For N types, the number of thresholds in the corresponding threshold set is (N-1), and the N types are determined by N intervals consisting of (N-1). The above threshold set typically corresponds to the indoor temperature.
[0123] The mapping relationship between the threshold sets corresponding to different types of user types can be specifically expressed in the form of a table, an algorithm model, or a function. The specific form of expression of this mapping relationship is not specifically limited.
[0124] As a way to represent this mapping relationship, a fitting model (i.e., a fitting function) can be generated by fitting a curve to represent the correspondence between indoor temperature and a set of ratio thresholds. This fitting curve is created by first classifying a large number of users by type; then collecting hand and forehead temperatures at different indoor temperatures for each of these classified users; and finally, fitting the collected data to the relationship between the hand-to-forehead temperature ratio and the indoor temperature to obtain a fitting function.
[0125] The above-mentioned indoor temperature may be referred to as the ambient temperature; and the current indoor temperature may be referred to as the target indoor temperature or the target ambient temperature.
[0126] For example, four indoor temperatures were selected as fitting temperatures: Ta = 15, Tb = 20, Tb = 25, and Tc = 30. Individuals of varying physical fitness, wearing appropriate clothing and with their hands exposed, were placed in the four indoor temperature environments. Their forehead temperature (denoted as Ht) and hand temperature (denoted as Dt) were measured sequentially to determine the temperature ratio (Ct = Dt / Ht). The Ct temperature ratios under different environments were then classified to yield Cta, Ctb, Ctc, and Ctd.
[0127] Specifically, in an environment of indoor temperature Ta, all personnel Cta are classified and counted according to three different types, and the average value of the sum of the three different types of Cta is calculated, namely: the first type average value Cta1, the second type average value Cta2, and the third type average value Cta3.
[0128] In an environment with an indoor temperature of Tb, the Ctb of all personnel are classified and counted according to three different types. At the same time, the average value of the sum of the three different types of Ctb is calculated, which are: the average value of the first type Ctb1, the average value of the second type Ctb2, and the average value of the third type Ctb3.
[0129] In the Tc indoor temperature environment, all personnel Ctcs are classified and counted according to three different types. At the same time, the average value of the sum of the three different types of Ctcs is calculated, namely: the first type average value Ctc1, the second type average value Ctc2, and the third type average value Ctc3.
[0130] Under the Td indoor temperature environment, all personnel Dtd are classified and counted according to three different types, and the average value of the sum of the three different types of Dtd is calculated, namely: the first type average value Dtd1, the second type average value Dtd2, and the third type average value Dtd3.
[0131] Based on Cta1, Ctb1, Ctc1, and Ctd1, a fitting function Ct1 can be obtained to determine the threshold curve Ct1 for the thermophilic user type with respect to indoor temperature. This curve is called Ct1. Ct1 = K1(t) + B1, where K1 and B1 are the constants of the fitted function corresponding to the thermophilic user type; t is the indoor temperature, and Ct1 is the first ratio threshold.
[0132] Based on Cta2, Ctb2, Ctc2, and Ctd2, a threshold curve Ct2 for indoor temperature can be fitted for users with a normal physique who dislike neither heat nor cold, i.e., the fitting function Ct2. Ct2 = K2(t) + B2, where K2 and B2 are the constants of the fitted function corresponding to the normal physique user type; t is the indoor temperature, and Ct2 is the second ratio threshold.
[0133] Based on Cta3, Ctb3, Ctc3, and Ctd3, a fitting function Ct3 can be obtained to determine the threshold curve Ct3 for users with a cold-preferring constitution with respect to indoor temperature. This curve is Ct3 = K3(t) + B3, where K3 and B3 are the constants of the fitted function corresponding to the normal constitution user type; t is the indoor temperature, and Ct3 is the third ratio threshold.
[0134] In one embodiment, a first fitting model is used to represent the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the first ratio threshold, a second fitting model is used to represent the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the second ratio threshold, and a third fitting model is used to represent the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the third ratio threshold. A set of ratio thresholds corresponding to the current indoor temperature is determined in the following manner. Specifically, the target indoor temperature is input into the first fitting model, the second fitting model, and the third fitting model, respectively, to obtain the first target ratio threshold, the second target ratio threshold, and the third target ratio threshold, respectively.
[0135] Illustratively, the first fitting model may be the aforementioned Ct1=K1(t)+B1; the second fitting model may be the aforementioned Ct2=K2(t)+B2; and the third fitting model may be the aforementioned Ct3=K3(t)+B3.
[0136] Based on this, in some embodiments, for users who prefer heat, the heat preference type is further divided more finely according to the degree of heat preference, and / or for users who prefer cold, the cold preference type is further divided more finely according to the degree of cold preference.
[0137] Exemplarily, when N is 7, the user types are level one heat-preferring type, level two heat-preferring type, level three heat-preferring type, type that dislikes neither heat nor cold, level one cold-preferring type, level two cold-preferring type, and level three cold-preferring type.
[0138] For the above three user types and the ratio threshold set is the first type target threshold and the second type target threshold application scenario. As an implementation method, combined with Figure 3 ,like Figure 4 As shown, the above step S302 can be specifically implemented through the following steps to determine the target user type according to the ratio threshold range to which the target ratio of the first target temperature to the second target temperature belongs.
[0139] Step S302A: when the target ratio of the first target temperature to the second target temperature is less than or equal to the first type target threshold, the target user type is the first type.
[0140] Step S302B: when the target ratio is greater than the first type target threshold and less than the second type target threshold, the target user type is the second type.
[0141] Step S302C: when the target ratio is greater than or equal to the second type target threshold, the target user type is the third type.
[0142] In this embodiment, the target user type is determined based on the three threshold ranges determined by the first type target threshold and the second type target threshold, and according to the range of the target ratio.
[0143] As another embodiment, combining Figure 3 ,like Figure 5 As shown, the above step S302 can also be specifically implemented through the following steps to determine the target user type according to the difference threshold range to which the difference between the first target temperature and the second target temperature belongs.
[0144] Step S501: When the difference between the first target temperature and the second target temperature is less than or equal to a first difference threshold, the target user type is the first type.
[0145] Step S502: When the difference is greater than the first difference threshold and less than the second difference threshold, the target user type is the second type.
[0146] Step S503: When the difference is greater than or equal to the second difference threshold, the target user type is the third type.
[0147] The first difference threshold and the second difference threshold correspond to the target indoor environment.
[0148] In this embodiment, different indoor temperatures correspond to different difference threshold sets. When there are three types of users, the difference threshold set includes two difference thresholds. Therefore, based on the three types of users, when the indoor temperature is constant, the two difference thresholds are also constant.
[0149] Based on this, this embodiment can determine the first and second difference thresholds for the target indoor temperature based on the correspondence between the indoor temperature and the difference threshold set, thereby forming different difference ranges. The target user type is then determined based on the difference range within which the difference between the first and second target temperatures falls.
[0150] The above target user types correspond to different operating modes and preset operating parameters, including preset air outlet temperature, preset air volume, and preset air outlet direction. The following, based on three application scenarios, provides different adjustment methods for operating parameters based on different target user types and explains the adjustment process of preset operating parameters in detail.
[0151] Scenario 1: The target user type is the first type of scenario.
[0152] As an implementation method, Figure 6As shown, in the scenario below, step S303 can be specifically implemented through the following steps to adjust the preset operating parameters.
[0153] Step S601: When the target operating mode is the heating mode, a first preset adjustment is performed on the preset operating parameters to obtain the target operating parameters.
[0154] The above-mentioned first preset adjustment of the preset operating parameters includes at least one or more of the following adjustment methods: raising the preset air outlet temperature by a first preset temperature value, increasing the preset air outlet angle by a first preset angle value, and adjusting the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area includes the target user.
[0155] Step S602: When the target operating mode is the cooling mode, a second preset adjustment is performed on the preset operating parameters to obtain the target operating parameters.
[0156] The above-mentioned execution of the second preset adjustment of the preset operating parameters includes at least one or more of the following adjustment methods: raising the preset air outlet temperature by a second preset temperature value, reducing the preset air outlet angle by a second preset angle value; adjusting the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area does not include the target user.
[0157] In this embodiment, if the target user type is the first type, it means that the target user is a user with a heat-loving physique and prefers a higher indoor temperature than people with normal physiques. When the operating mode set by the user is heating mode, the hot air volume, hot air temperature, and area covered by the hot air in the heating mode are all increased to increase the temperature in the area where the heat-loving user is located in heating mode. When the operating mode set by the user is cooling mode, the cold air volume and area covered by the cold air in the cooling mode are both reduced, and the cold air temperature is increased to increase the temperature in the area where the heat-loving user is located in cooling mode.
[0158] Based on this embodiment, for the first type of users with a thermophilic constitution, the preset operating parameters are adjusted in various operating modes with the purpose of increasing the user's perceived temperature.
[0159] Scenario 2: The target user type is the third type of scenario.
[0160] As an implementation method, Figure 7 As shown, in scenario 2, the above step S303 can be specifically implemented through the following steps to complete the adjustment of the preset operating parameters.
[0161] Step S701 : When the target operating mode is the heating mode, a third preset adjustment is performed on the preset operating parameters to obtain the target operating parameters.
[0162] The above-mentioned execution of the third preset adjustment on the preset operating parameters includes at least one or more of the following adjustment methods: lowering the preset air outlet temperature by a third preset temperature value, reducing the preset air outlet angle by a third preset angle value; adjusting the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area does not include the target user.
[0163] Step S702: When the target operating mode is the cooling mode, a fourth preset adjustment is performed on the preset operating parameters to obtain the target operating parameters.
[0164] The above-mentioned fourth preset adjustment of the preset operating parameters includes at least one or more of the following adjustment methods: lowering the preset air outlet temperature by a fourth preset temperature value, increasing the preset air outlet angle by a fourth preset angle value, and adjusting the preset air outlet direction to an angle where the air outlet area includes the target user.
[0165] In this embodiment, if the target user type is the third type, it means that the target user has a cold-preferring physique and prefers a cooler indoor environment than people with normal physiques. When the operating mode set by the user is heating mode, the hot air volume, hot air temperature, and the area covered by the hot air in the heating mode are all reduced to reduce the temperature in the area where the user with a cold-preferring physique is located in heating mode. When the operating mode set by the user is cooling mode, the cold air volume and the area covered by the cold air in the cooling mode are both increased, and the cold air temperature is lowered to reduce the temperature in the area where the user with a cold-preferring physique is located in cooling mode.
[0166] Based on this embodiment, for the second type of users who prefer cold body constitution, in various operating modes, the preset operating parameters are adjusted for the purpose of lowering the user's perceived temperature.
[0167] Scenario three: The target user type is the second type of scenario, and the preset operating parameters are determined as the target operating parameters.
[0168] In this embodiment, the target user type is the second type, which means that the target user is a normal physique user who does not like cold or heat. In this case, there is no need to adjust the preset operating parameters. Directly using the preset operating parameters and running under the target operating parameters can meet the temperature requirements of the normal physique user.
[0169] In the above three scenarios, the adjustment methods in different operating modes corresponding to the above target user types are the first preset adjustment, the second preset adjustment, the third preset adjustment, the fourth preset adjustment and no adjustment.
[0170] As a specific implementation method, the preset parameter adjustment process is as follows Figure 8 Steps shown.
[0171] Step S801: Determine the target parts of the target user: hands and head.
[0172] Step S802 , obtaining the current indoor temperature, and collecting the target part temperature of the target user to obtain the target hand temperature and the target head temperature.
[0173] The current indoor temperature is the target indoor temperature, the target hand temperature is the first target temperature, and the target head temperature is the second target temperature.
[0174] Step S803: Determine a first type target threshold and a second type target threshold according to the current indoor temperature.
[0175] Step S804 : Compare the ratio of the target hand temperature to the target head temperature with the first type target threshold and the second type target threshold to determine the target user type of the target user.
[0176] Step S805 , adjusting the preset operating parameters according to the adjustment methods in different operating modes corresponding to the target user types to obtain target operating parameters.
[0177] Step S806: Control the air-conditioning equipment to operate in a target operating mode with target operating parameters.
[0178] The target operating parameters include at least one or more of a target air outlet temperature, a target air outlet volume, and a target air outlet direction.
