[0030] See also Figures 1 to 7 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a floor-standing air conditioner is provided, comprising a housing 1, the housing 1 having an upper air outlet 11 and a lower air outlet 12 spaced apart in a height direction, the housing 1 having an upper axial flow fan blade 31 corresponding to the upper air outlet 11 and a lower axial flow fan blade 32 corresponding to the lower air outlet 12, the rotation axes of the upper axial flow fan blade 31 and the lower axial flow fan blade 32 being parallel and horizontal, at least one of the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 being provided with an air guide grille 2, the air guide grille 2 having a plurality of spaced apart air guide grille blades 21 The air guide grille 2 can rotate around the vertical axis so that the air guide grille pieces 21 of the air guide grille 2 can flip and switch between the first position and the second position. When the air guide grille 2 is in the first position, the deflection direction of the air guide grille pieces 21 around the rotation axis of the corresponding axial flow fan blade is opposite to the deflection direction of the air guide grille pieces 21 around the rotation axis of the corresponding axial flow fan blade when the air guide grille 2 is in the second position. That is, when the deflection direction of the air guide grille pieces 21 is clockwise in the first position, the deflection direction of the air guide grille pieces 21 is counterclockwise in the second position, and vice versa. In this technical solution, by providing a reversible air guide grille 2, the deflection direction of the air guide grille slats 21 thereon can be used to determine whether it is the same as the air outlet rotation direction of the corresponding axial flow fan blade, thereby achieving distance control of the air outlet distance of the corresponding air outlet. In this way, when the user is close to the air conditioner, the corresponding air guide grille 2 can be controlled to flip to the corresponding position to achieve close-range air supply without having to control the corresponding axial flow fan blade to stop operating. This ensures the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 5, fully utilizes energy, prevents the cold air flow from blowing directly onto the user in cooling mode, and improves user comfort. In a preferred embodiment, the angle difference between the first position and the second position is 180°, that is, the air guide grille 2 can be switched between the first position and the second position by flipping 180°.

[0031] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 As can be seen from the simulation diagram, see Figure 6 When the axial flow fan blades rotate in the opposite direction to the deflection direction of the air guide grille 21, the blown wind can form a columnar spiral wind, which can achieve a long-distance air supply mode; on the contrary, see Figure 7As shown, the rotation direction of the axial flow fan is the same as the deflection direction of the air guide grille, and the blown air is dispersed, so that the close-range air supply mode can be realized. It should be particularly pointed out that in the present application, the rotation direction of the axial flow fan is the rotation direction of the axial flow fan, which refers to the rotation direction in which the fan can normally blow air. When the rotation direction of the fan is opposite, the fan cannot effectively drive the airflow to blow out. The deflection direction of the air guide grille 21 refers to the direction opposite to the convex direction of the approximately arc-shaped air guide grille 21. For example, the counterclockwise direction in Figure 3 is the deflection direction, and Figure 4 is the deflection direction.

[0032] The wind speed data measured at the air outlet under the conditions that the rotation direction of the fan is the same as or opposite to the deflection direction of the air guide grille 21 is shown in the following table. It can be clearly seen from the table that the air supply distance when the rotation direction of the fan is the same as the deflection direction of the air guide grille 21 is obviously smaller than the air supply distance when the rotation direction of the fan is opposite to the deflection direction of the air guide grille 21.

[0033]

[0034]

[0035] In some embodiments, the air guide grille 2 is provided with a grille overturning driving component, which is drivingly connected with the air guide grille 2 to drive the air guide grille 2 to overturn along its vertical axis inside and outside the shell 1. The automatic switching of the air guide grille 2 between the first position and the second position is realized by controlling the operation of the grille overturning driving component, which is beneficial to the intelligent control of the air conditioner.

[0036] The grille overturning driving component includes a rotary motor 4, which is fixedly connected with the shell 1. The air guide grille 2 further includes an outer frame 22, the radial outer end of the air guide grille 21 is connected with the radial inner side of the outer frame 22, and the radial outer side of the outer frame 22 has a driving sleeve 23, and the output shaft of the rotary motor 4 is sleeved in the driving sleeve 23. In this technical solution, the rotary motor 4 and the driving sleeve 23 are sleeved to realize the reliable driving of the rotary motor 4 to the air guide grille 2, which is simple in structure and has higher driving efficiency by using direct driving.

[0037] In another preferred embodiment, the radial outer side of the outer frame 22 further has a support shaft (not shown in the figure, not referenced), which is coaxial with the driving sleeve 23 and is located on the side of the outer frame 22 away from the driving sleeve 23. The support shaft is rotatably connected with the shell 1. In this technical solution, one side of the air guide grille 2 is reliably supported by the rotary motor 4, and the other side is reliably supported by the support shaft, so that the overall overturning is more stable and reliable.

[0038] As a preferred solution, the air guide grilles 2 are arranged in the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 respectively, so that the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 can have the switching function of close-range air supply and long-range air supply.

[0039] In order to simplify the control logic of the air supply distance, preferably, the air supply rotation directions of the upper axial fan blades 31 and the lower axial fan blades 32 are the same, so that the switching of the close-range air supply and the long-range air supply of the corresponding air outlets can be realized by only turning over the air guide grilles 2.

[0040] Referring to Figure 2 The heat exchanger 5 is arranged in the shell 1, and the upper axial fan blades 31 and the lower axial fan blades 32 are located on the side of the heat exchanger 5 facing the upper air outlet 11, so that the small spacing between the axial fan blades and the air guide grilles 2 can be realized, and the relative relationship of the rotation directions of the two can be utilized to achieve the purpose of close-range air supply and long-range air supply.

[0041] According to the embodiment of the present application, a control method of the floor type air conditioner is also provided, which is used for controlling the operation of the floor type air conditioner, and the control method comprises the following steps:

[0042] Obtaining the activity area of the user and the operation mode of the air conditioner, the activity area comprising a first area far away from the floor type air conditioner and a second area close to the floor type air conditioner;

[0043] When the obtained activity area of the user is the first area alone, the position switching of the air guide grilles 2 in the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 is controlled, so that the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 both perform long-range air supply;

[0044] Otherwise, the position switching of the air guide grilles 2 in at least one of the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 is controlled according to the obtained operation mode, so that one of the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 performs long-range air supply, and the other performs close-range air supply.

[0045] In the technical solution, whether there is a person in the second area close to the air conditioner or the first area far away from the air conditioner, that is, the activity area of the user is obtained, and then the air supply mode of the upper air outlet and the lower air outlet of the air conditioner can be controlled according to the specific activity area of the user, which is beneficial to improve the temperature uniformity and the temperature adjusting efficiency of the temperature adjusting space, ensures the air conditioning use comfort of the user, and realizes the intelligent air supply of the air conditioner.

[0046] In a specific embodiment, the first area (such as the area 1 in Figure 5 ) and the second area (such as the area 2 in Figure 5 ) are limited by 2m away from the air outlet of the air conditioner, the area less than 2m is the second area, and the area more than 2m is the first area.

[0047] Specifically, the operation mode includes a heating mode and a cooling mode, and the position switching of the air guide grating 2 in at least one of the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 is controlled according to the obtained operation mode, so that one of the upper air outlet 11 and the lower air outlet 12 performs long-distance air supply, and the other performs short-distance air supply, which specifically includes: when the obtained operation mode is the heating mode, the upper air outlet 11 is controlled to perform short-distance air supply, and the lower air outlet 12 is controlled to perform long-distance air supply, so that the physical characteristics of the smaller heat airflow density can be utilized, the heat airflow sent out by the lower air outlet 12 can rise from bottom to top, the long-distance air supply of the lower air outlet 12 can ensure that the heat airflow directly contacts the user in the first area and the second area to generate limb contact, thereby improving the comfort of the user and achieving the purpose of carpet heating, and at this time, the upper air outlet 11 performs short-distance air supply without sending out a long distance, which is more energy-saving; or when the obtained operation mode is the cooling mode, the upper air outlet 11 is controlled to perform long-distance air supply, and the lower air outlet 12 is controlled to perform short-distance air supply, so that the physical characteristics of the larger cold airflow density can be utilized, the cold airflow sent out by the upper air outlet 11 can sink from top to bottom, and the short-distance air supply of the lower air outlet 12 can avoid the direct limb contact between the cold air sent out by the lower air outlet 12 and the user as much as possible, thereby improving the comfort of the user and achieving the purpose of bathing cooling.

[0048] As described above, when the upper air outlet 11 and / or the lower air outlet 12 performs long-distance air supply, the deflection direction of the air guide grating piece 21 of the corresponding air guide grating 2 is controlled to be opposite to the air outlet rotation direction of the corresponding axial flow fan blade, that is, when the axial flow fan blade rotates clockwise, and the first position is the deflection of the air guide grating piece 21 of the corresponding air guide grating 2 is counterclockwise, the air guide grating 2 is controlled to be in the first position, and at this time, the deflection of the air guide grating piece 21 in the second position is clockwise; or when the upper air outlet 11 or the lower air outlet 12 performs short-distance air supply, the deflection direction of the air guide grating piece 21 of the corresponding air guide grating 2 is controlled to be the same as the air outlet rotation direction of the corresponding axial flow fan blade, that is, when the axial flow fan blade rotates clockwise, the air guide grating 2 is controlled to be in the second position, and specifically, the air guide grating 2 can be controlled to rotate 180° from the first position to the second position.

[0049] The following will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings Figure 5 Further illustrate the intelligent air supply function of the present application in the cooling mode and the heating mode, taking the rotation direction of the upper axial flow fan blade 31 and the lower axial flow fan blade 32 as counterclockwise as an example:

[0053] In region 1, representing more than 2 meters distance with human activity, considering the demand for cold, the upper air outlet and the lower air outlet are both far distance air supply mode, so the rotation angle of the guide grille of the upper air outlet and the lower air outlet is 0° (i.e. in the second position, same below). In region 2, representing the air outlet within 2 meters of the human activity, because of the cold air sinking problem in the refrigeration mode, and considering that the lower air outlet blows cold air mostly on the human body affecting the comfort, so the upper air outlet is a far distance air supply mode, and the lower air outlet is a near distance air supply mode, the rotation angle of the guide grille of the upper air outlet is 0°, and the rotation angle of the guide grille of the lower air outlet is 180° (i.e. in the first position, same below).

[0054] II. Refrigeration mode - detecting human activity area as multiple areas

[0055] Multiple air supply areas represent that there are human activities in region 1 and region 2, and because of the problem of near cooling air blowing on the human body affecting the comfort, the detection method is the same as single air supply region 2. The upper air outlet is a far distance air supply mode, and the lower air outlet is a near distance air supply mode, the rotation angle of the guide grille of the upper air outlet is 0°, and the rotation angle of the guide grille of the lower air outlet is 180°.

[0056] (2) Heating mode:

[0057]

[0058] I. Heating mode - detecting human activity area as a single area

[0059] In region 1, representing more than 2 meters distance with human activity, considering the demand for heat, the upper air outlet and the lower air outlet are both far distance air supply mode, so the rotation angle of the guide grille of the upper air outlet and the lower air outlet is 0°. In region 2, representing the air outlet within 2 meters of the human activity, because of the hot air floating problem in the heating mode, so the upper air outlet is a near distance air supply mode, and the lower air outlet is a far distance air supply mode, the rotation angle of the guide grille of the upper air outlet is 180°, and the rotation angle of the guide grille of the lower air outlet is 0°.

[0060] II. Heating mode - detecting human activity area as multiple air supply areas
