Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning equipment technology, such as a control method and device for air conditioning, an air conditioner, and a storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, as people's living standards have continued to improve, they have also paid increasing attention to indoor environments. Because indoor environmental regulation is so important, many households choose to install air conditioners in every room of their homes to regulate the indoor environment. While in most rooms air conditioners can achieve good indoor environmental regulation by only considering the user's comfort, the kitchen is different. Not only are there many ingredients that require specific environmental parameters, but cooking processes also involve steps with special environmental requirements.

[0003] Currently, kitchen air conditioners still regulate the environment based on the user's temperature and humidity needs. That is, the air conditioner obtains the user's activity information or facial expression information to determine whether the user has a need for temperature or humidity adjustment, and then controls the air conditioner to adjust the ambient temperature or humidity accordingly. In implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related technology:

[0004] In certain cooking stages, the air conditioning's control methods described above can hinder the smooth progress of the cooking process. For example, during the dough-making stage, the air conditioning lowers the ambient temperature based on the user's temperature requirements. This not only increases the time required for dough to rise but also affects the rising effect, thus delaying the user from using the dough for the next cooking step.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0037] Optionally, the entity performing the above steps can be an air conditioner, which is a smart home appliance. Specifically, when the air conditioner determines that the current scene in the room is a cooking scene, it obtains the current cooking status information; based on the cooking status information, the air conditioner determines its target operating mode; the air conditioner controls itself to execute the target operating mode to adjust the air circulation and temperature environment in the room. This ensures that the environmental conditions in the room match the cooking status of the current scene, thereby effectively controlling the cooking time and ensuring the cooking effect.

[0038] Optionally, the air conditioner can also have a associated server, which can be deployed on a cloud server or a separately configured smart gateway. The server has a communication connection with the air conditioner, enabling information transmission. Specifically, when the server determines that the current scene in the room is a cooking scene, it obtains the current cooking status information; based on the cooking status information, the server determines the target operating mode of the air conditioner; the server controls the air conditioner to execute the target operating mode to adjust the air circulation and temperature environment in the room. This ensures that the environmental conditions in the room match the cooking state of the current scene, effectively controlling the cooking time and thus guaranteeing the cooking effect.

[0039] Combination Figure 1 As shown, this disclosure provides a control method for an air conditioner, including:

[0040] S01. If it is determined that the current scene in the room belongs to a cooking scene, obtain the current cooking status information.

[0041] S02. Determine the target operating mode of the air conditioner based on the cooking status information.

[0042] S03. Control the air conditioner to execute the target operating mode in order to regulate the air circulation and temperature environment in the room.

[0043] The air conditioning control method provided in this disclosure adjusts the air circulation and temperature environment in the room according to the current cooking status information in the room in a target operating mode, so that the environmental conditions in the room are adapted to the cooking status in the current scenario, so that the cooking process can be completed smoothly and conditions are provided for the execution of the next cooking operation, thereby effectively controlling the cooking time in the room and ensuring the cooking effect.

[0044] In some embodiments, the air conditioner can determine that the current scene in the room belongs to a cooking scene by obtaining installation information and determining that the current scene belongs to a cooking scene if the installation information indicates that the air conditioner is installed in the kitchen.

[0045] In other embodiments, the air conditioner can also determine that the current scene in the room belongs to a cooking scene by acquiring image information of the room and detecting cooking appliances in the image information. Optionally, the air conditioner can also determine that the current scene in the room belongs to a cooking scene by determining user detection information based on image information and determining whether the current scene belongs to a cooking scene based on the user detection information. Specifically, determining whether the current scene belongs to a cooking scene based on user detection information includes: determining that the current scene belongs to a cooking scene when the user detection information indicates that the user is performing a preset cooking operation.

[0046] In some embodiments, cooking status information includes cooking type information and current cooking stage; determining the target operating mode of the air conditioner based on the cooking status information may include: acquiring a cooking information database, which stores at least one cooking type and operating modes associated with different cooking stages under different cooking types; and determining a target operating mode from the cooking information database that matches the cooking type information in the room and conforms to the current cooking stage.

[0047] In this embodiment, the current cooking stage may include an ingredient preparation stage, a fermentation and marinating stage, and a cooking stage. Correspondingly, the target operating mode may include: an ingredient preservation mode, a fermentation mode, and a forced ventilation mode. The ingredient preservation mode includes: using a direct-blowing airflow method to prevent direct airflow to the user and ingredients; the fermentation mode includes: operating at a set temperature and issuing a check reminder to the user after the target fermentation time is reached; the forced ventilation mode includes: controlling the fresh air fan to operate in the first direction and closing the indoor air outlet of the air conditioner. Thus, by adjusting the air circulation and temperature environment in the room using the target operating mode, the environmental conditions in the room can be adapted to the cooking state in the current scenario.

[0048] Optionally, the current cooking status information can be determined by: detecting the operation detection information of the target stove; and determining the cooking status information based on the operation detection information of the target stove.

[0049] In this solution, the operational detection information of the target stove includes at least: the target stove being in a flame combustion state and the target stove being in a non-combustion state. The air conditioner can directly determine the corresponding cooking stage as cooking status information based on the operational detection information of the target stove. Furthermore, after determining the operational detection information of the target stove, the air conditioner can further determine the current cooking status information in the room based on other detection information.

[0050] Combination Figure 2 As shown, this disclosure provides another control method for an air conditioner, including:

[0051] S11. Detect the operational monitoring information of the target stove.

[0052] S12. Determine the cooking status information based on the operation detection information of the target stove.

[0053] The air conditioning control method provided in this embodiment determines the current cooking status information in the room based on the operation detection information of the target stove. Then, based on the cooking status information, the air conditioning controls the air conditioning to adjust the air circulation and temperature environment in the room in the target operating mode, so that the environmental conditions in the room are adapted to the cooking status in the current scenario, so that the cooking process can be completed smoothly and conditions are provided for the execution of the next cooking operation, thereby effectively controlling the cooking time in the room and ensuring the cooking effect.

[0054] Optionally, cooking status information is determined based on the operation detection information of the target stove, including: when the operation detection information indicates that the target stove is in a non-combustion state, obtaining food detection information and / or user detection information in the room; and determining cooking status information based on user detection information and / or food detection information.

[0055] Optionally, determining the cooking status information based on user detection information may include: obtaining user activity information and / or user location coordinates; determining the cooking operation being performed by the user based on the user activity information and / or user location coordinates; and determining the user's cooking status information based on the determined cooking operation.

[0056] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the user detection information includes: user activity information, and / or, user location coordinates. In some embodiments, the air conditioner can determine the cooking operation being performed by the user in the room based on the user activity information. In other embodiments, when the room is a kitchen, the air conditioner obtains a kitchen information database, which stores multiple functional areas within the kitchen, and the cooking operations that the user is performing in different functional areas; the air conditioner determines the cooking operation that matches the user's location coordinates from the kitchen information database and uses it as the user's current cooking operation.

[0057] In this solution, the kitchen's multiple functional areas can include storage areas, washing areas, food preparation areas, and cooking areas. Taking the food preparation area as an example, when the air conditioner detects that a user is in the food preparation area, it determines that the cooking status information matches the food preparation stage.

[0058] Combination Figure 3 As shown, this disclosure provides another control method for an air conditioner, including:

[0059] S21. When the target stove is in a non-combustion state, obtain food detection information and / or user detection information in the room.

[0060] S22. Determine the cooking status information based on user detection information and / or ingredient detection information.

[0061] The air conditioning control method provided in this disclosure allows the air conditioner to determine the current cooking status information in the room based on user detection information and / or food detection information when the target stove is in a non-combustion state. Then, based on the cooking status information, the air conditioner is controlled to adjust the air circulation and temperature environment in the room in a target operating mode, so that the environmental conditions in the room are adapted to the cooking status in the current scenario, so that the ongoing cooking process can be completed smoothly and conditions are provided for the execution of the next cooking operation, thereby effectively controlling the cooking time in the room and ensuring the cooking effect.

[0062] Optionally, cooking status information is determined based on user detection information, including: if the user detection information indicates that the user is chopping vegetables, determining that the cooking status information meets the food preparation stage; and determining the target operating mode of the air conditioner based on the cooking status information, including: if the cooking status information meets the food preparation stage, determining that the target operating mode is the food preservation mode; wherein, the food preservation mode includes: using an air outlet method that prevents direct airflow to the user and the food.

[0063] Specifically, preventing direct airflow can include ensuring the air conditioner's airflow is horizontal. This allows the air conditioner to regulate environmental parameters while preventing moisture loss from food, thus maintaining freshness and user comfort. Preventing direct airflow also involves setting a target airflow temperature for the food preservation mode, which can be manually set by the user.

[0064] In some embodiments, the food preservation mode may further include: continuously acquiring food detection information; determining the food placement time based on the food detection information; and pushing a storage reminder message to the user if the food placement time exceeds a preset external time, to remind the user to dispose of the externally placed food in a timely manner. In this solution, the preset external time can be 10 minutes.

[0065] Optionally, the push notification for food storage may include: the air conditioner playing a voice prompt containing a reminder, or the air conditioner sending a reminder message containing a reminder to the user's portable device. The reminder content may include: reminding the user to seal and store food, or reminding the user to put food in the refrigerator.

[0066] Optionally, cooking status information is determined based on user detection information and ingredient detection information, including: if user detection information indicates that the user is not in the room and fermenting dough is detected, the cooking status information is determined to be in the fermentation and marinating stage; the target operating mode of the air conditioner is determined based on the cooking status information, including: if the cooking status information is determined to be in the fermentation and marinating stage, the target operating mode is determined to be the fermentation mode.

[0067] In this way, when it is confirmed that dough is fermenting in the room, the air conditioner is controlled to start the fermentation mode. The air conditioner is controlled to adjust the air circulation and temperature environment in the room in the fermentation mode, so that the environmental conditions in the room are more suitable for dough fermentation, thereby avoiding the fermentation time being too long and ensuring the fermentation effect of the dough.

[0068] Optionally, the air conditioner operates in fermentation mode, including: acquiring outdoor temperature parameters and determining the air circulation status in the room; determining the set temperature and target fermentation time based on the outdoor temperature parameters and air circulation status; the air conditioner operates at the set temperature and sends a check reminder to the user after the target fermentation time is reached. Here, sending a check reminder to the user includes reminding the user to check the fermentation status.

[0069] Optionally, determining the temperature setting and target fermentation time based on outdoor temperature parameters and air circulation conditions may include: acquiring a fermentation information database containing at least one fermentation strategy, as well as the corresponding outdoor temperature parameters and air circulation conditions for different fermentation strategies; and determining a target fermentation strategy from the fermentation information database that matches the air circulation conditions and conforms to the outdoor temperature parameters. Specifically, the target fermentation strategy includes a temperature setting and a target fermentation time.

[0070] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target fermentation time may include a first fermentation time, a second fermentation time, a third fermentation time, and a unit fermentation time.

[0071] In some embodiments, when the air conditioner is operating in fermentation mode, the control method for the air conditioner further includes: determining the weight information of the dough being fermented; and determining the target operating mode of the fermentation mode based on the weight information and outdoor temperature parameters.

[0072] Optionally, the weight information of the fermenting dough can be determined by: acquiring the dough-making materials and determining the weight information of the fermenting dough based on the weight of the materials; or, acquiring the detection information from an associated weight sensor and using the weight detected by the weight sensor as the weight information of the fermenting dough. The weight sensor can be located at the bottom of the container where the dough is placed.

[0073] Optionally, determining the target operating mode of the fermentation mode based on the weight information and outdoor temperature parameters may include: determining a reference temperature threshold based on the weight information; and determining the target operating mode of the fermentation mode based on the outdoor temperature parameters and the reference temperature threshold.

[0074] Specifically, based on the outdoor temperature parameters and reference temperature thresholds, the target operating mode of the fermentation mode is determined, including: when the outdoor temperature parameter is greater than the first reference temperature, the target operating mode includes controlling the smart doors and windows associated with the air conditioner to close and activating the air conditioner's fresh air function; and after the first fermentation time, reminding the user to check the fermentation status. If feedback is received from the user that the fermentation status is unqualified after checking, the air conditioner is controlled to continue operating in fermentation mode for the next fermentation time.

[0075] When the outdoor temperature is greater than the second reference temperature but less than or equal to the first reference temperature, the target operating mode is determined, including closing the smart doors and windows associated with the air conditioner and activating the air conditioner's fresh air function. After the second fermentation time, the user is reminded to check the fermentation status. If feedback is received from the user that the fermentation status is unqualified, the air conditioner continues to operate in fermentation mode for another fermentation time. The second fermentation time is longer than the first fermentation time.

[0076] When the outdoor temperature is less than or equal to the second reference temperature, the target operating mode is determined by controlling the air conditioner to start heating operation and monitoring the indoor ambient temperature in real time. When the indoor ambient temperature exceeds the third reference temperature, the air conditioner stops heating operation and activates the fresh air function. The third reference temperature is greater than the second reference temperature and less than the first reference temperature.

[0077] Furthermore, when the outdoor temperature parameter is less than or equal to the second reference temperature, the target operating mode also includes reminding the user to check the fermentation status after the third fermentation time. If feedback is received from the user that the fermentation status is unqualified after inspection, the air conditioner will continue to operate in fermentation mode for another fermentation time. The third fermentation time is longer than the second fermentation time.

[0078] Combination Figure 4 As shown, this disclosure provides another control method for an air conditioner, including:

[0079] S31. Obtain outdoor temperature parameters and determine the air circulation status in the room.

[0080] S32. Determine the set temperature and target fermentation time based on outdoor temperature parameters and air circulation conditions.

[0081] S33. The air conditioner operates at the set temperature and sends a check reminder to the user after the target fermentation time is reached.

[0082] The air conditioning control method provided in this embodiment determines the set temperature and target fermentation time based on outdoor temperature parameters and air circulation status, making the room environment more suitable for dough fermentation, thereby avoiding situations such as excessively long fermentation time and ensuring the fermentation effect of the dough.

[0083] Optionally, based on the operational detection information of the target stove, the cooking status information is determined, including: if the operational detection information indicates that the target stove is in a flame combustion state, determining that the cooking status information conforms to the cooking stage; based on the cooking status information, the target operating mode of the air conditioner is determined, including: if the cooking status information conforms to the cooking stage, determining that the target operating mode is a forced exhaust mode; wherein, the forced exhaust mode includes: controlling the fresh air fan to operate in a first direction and closing the indoor air outlet of the air conditioner. In this way, the fresh air fan operating in the first direction can exhaust indoor smoke to the outside, and closing the indoor air outlet can prevent smoke drawn into the air duct from re-entering the room through the indoor air outlet.

[0084] Optionally, the target airflow speed for the forced exhaust mode can be set to the maximum speed setting of the fresh air fan. This ensures that the forced exhaust mode achieves good fume removal efficiency.

[0085] Optionally, after the air conditioner starts the forced ventilation mode, the control method for the air conditioner further includes: continuing to acquire the operation detection information of the target stove; and when the operation detection information indicates that the target stove is in a non-combustion state, controlling the air conditioner to start the cooling operation and blowing air in a way that does not directly blow on the user.

[0086] Combination Figure 5 As shown, this disclosure provides a control device 200 for an air conditioner, including a processor 201 and a memory 202. Optionally, the device may further include a communication interface 203 and a bus 204. The processor 201, communication interface 203, and memory 202 can communicate with each other via the bus 204.

[0087] Furthermore, the logical instructions in the aforementioned memory 202 can be implemented as software functional units and, when sold or used as independent products, can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium.

[0088] The memory 202, as a computer-readable storage medium, can be used to store software programs and computer-executable programs, such as program instructions / modules corresponding to the methods in the embodiments of this disclosure. The processor 201 executes functional applications and data processing by running the program instructions / modules stored in the memory 202, thereby implementing the control method for the air conditioner in the above embodiments.
