[0048] The application discloses a method for controlling the gap between a deflector and a panel, so as to realize the uniformity of the gap between the deflector and the panel after the deflector is closed, and improve the appearance of an air conditioner.

[0049] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the application.

[0050] Please refer to Figures 1-5 .

[0051] The application discloses a method for controlling the gap between a deflector and a panel, comprising the following steps:

[0052] S1, obtaining a first stress of the deflector 1 when and / or after the deflector 1 is closed in a first set working mode;

[0053] S2, controlling the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the deflector 1 to move to a first specific direction according to the first deformation amount, so that the deflector 1 is in a flat state, wherein the relationship between the first stress and the first deformation amount is a stress-deformation amount curve obtained through CAE analysis.

[0054] The application discloses a method for controlling the gap between a deflector and a panel, wherein a stress-deformation amount curve obtained through CAE analysis and parameters corresponding to the curve are pre-stored in a controller;

[0055] The controller receives the first stress of the deflector 1 when and / or after the deflector 1 is closed, and obtains the first deformation amount of the deflector 1 corresponding to the first stress according to the stress-deformation amount curve;

[0056] The controller controls the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the deflector 1 to move to a first specific direction according to the obtained first deformation amount, so that the deflector 1 is in a flat state.

[0057] For the deflector 1 structures of different shapes and different materials, the stress-deformation amount curve of the deflector 1 is obtained through CAE analysis, and the parameters corresponding to the stress-deformation amount curve are recorded, and the stress-deformation amount curve and the parameters are stored in the controller.

[0058] The method for controlling the gap between the air deflector and the panel disclosed in the present application is to collect the first stress of the air deflector 1 in real time to obtain the real-time first deformation of the air deflector 1, and to control the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the air deflector 1 to move in the first specific direction according to the first deformation, so as to reduce the deformation of the air deflector 1 and make the air deflector 1 in a flat state, thereby ensuring that the gap between the air deflector 1 and the panel is uniform when the air deflector 1 is closed and / or after the air deflector 1 is closed.

[0059] During the closing process of the air deflector 1, the first set working mode is also ended, and the temperature of the air deflector 1 gradually tends to the room temperature. At this time, the first stress of the air deflector 1 changes with the temperature change of the air deflector 1, and accordingly, the first deformation of the air deflector 1 also changes in real time. The adjusting assembly 3 changes the distance of driving the air deflector 1 to move in the first specific direction according to the real-time first deformation of the air deflector 1, so as to ensure that the air deflector 1 can be kept in the flat state as much as possible during the closing process.

[0060] Since the time for closing the air deflector 1 is short, the temperature of the air deflector 1 has not reached the room temperature after the air deflector 1 is closed. At this time, the temperature of the air deflector 1 still gradually changes to the room temperature, and at this time, the first stress of the air deflector 1 also changes in real time. Accordingly, the first deformation of the air deflector 1 also changes in real time. The adjusting assembly 3 needs to continue to change the distance of driving the air deflector 1 to move in the first specific direction according to the real-time first deformation of the air deflector 1, so as to ensure that the air deflector 1 is in the flat state, and until the first stress of the air deflector 1 no longer changes.

[0061] The method for controlling the gap between the air deflector and the panel disclosed in the present application is a real-time collection and real-time adjustment process, which makes the air deflector 1 keep in the flat state and gradually releases the stress of the air deflector 1. When the first stress of the air deflector 1 no longer changes, the air deflector 1 is in the flat state, and at this time, the controller controls the adjusting assembly 3 to stop working.

[0062] The first set working mode of the air conditioner disclosed in the present application has two modes, the first mode is the heating mode, and the second mode is the cooling mode.

[0063] When the air conditioner is in the heating mode, the ambient temperature is low, the air deflector 1 is heated, the temperature of the air deflector 1 gradually rises, stress occurs and the air deflector 1 is in the outward convex deformation state. When the air deflector 1 is closed, it is still in the outward convex deformation state, which causes the gap between the air deflector 1 and the panel to be uneven.

[0064] In order to change the problem that the gap between the air deflector and the panel is uneven, the adjusting assembly 3 applies a force to the air deflector 1 towards the panel, so as to change the outward convex deformation state of the air deflector 1 and gradually make the air deflector 1 in the flat state. When the air deflector 1 is in the flat state, the gap between the air deflector 1 and the panel is uniform.

[0065] The first specific direction is a direction away from the panel when the working mode is set to the heating mode.

[0066] When the air conditioner is in the cooling mode, the ambient temperature is high, the deflector 1 is cooled, the temperature of the deflector 1 gradually decreases, stress occurs and the deflector 1 is deformed inwardly, and the deflector 1 is still in the inwardly deformed state when the deflector 1 is closed, resulting in uneven gaps between the deflector 1 and the panel.

[0067] In order to change the uneven gaps between the deflector and the panel, the adjusting assembly 3 applies a force to the deflector 1 in a direction away from the panel to change the state of the deflector 1 being deformed inwardly and gradually to a flat state. When the deflector 1 is in the flat state, the gaps between the deflector 1 and the panel are uniform.

[0068] The first specific direction is a direction away from the panel when the working mode is set to the heating mode.

[0069] The method for controlling the gaps between the deflector and the panel disclosed in the application further comprises the following steps:

[0070] S3, obtaining a second stress of the deflector 1 when and / or after the deflector 1 is opened in a second set working mode;

[0071] S4, controlling the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the deflector 1 to move in a second specific direction according to the second deformation amount, so as to reduce the force with which the deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move, wherein the relationship between the second stress and the second deformation amount is a stress-deformation amount curve obtained through CAE analysis.

[0072] In the heating mode, the temperature of the deflector 1 gradually increases during the opening process of the deflector 1, and even after the deflector 1 is completely opened, the deflector 1 is still in a state of gradually increasing temperature, until the temperature of the deflector 1 reaches the set temperature in the heating mode.

[0073] During the opening process of the deflector 1 or the process in which the deflector 1 is gradually increasing in temperature, the deflector 1 will be deformed outwardly, at which time a pulling force away from the panel will be applied to the adjusting assembly 3.

[0074] In the cooling mode, the temperature of the deflector 1 gradually decreases during the opening process of the deflector 1, and even after the deflector 1 is completely opened, the deflector 1 is still in a state of gradually decreasing temperature, until the temperature of the deflector 1 reaches the set temperature in the cooling mode.

[0075] During the opening process of the deflector 1 or the process in which the deflector 1 is gradually decreasing in temperature, the deflector 1 will be deformed inwardly, at which time a pushing force toward the panel will be applied to the adjusting assembly 3.

[0076] No matter whether the air deflector 1 exerts a pulling force on the adjusting assembly 3 in the heating mode or exerts a pushing force on the adjusting assembly 3 in the cooling mode, the adjusting assembly 3 will be damaged.

[0077] The controller controls the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the air deflector 1 to move in a second specific direction according to the second deformation amount, so as to reduce the force with which the air deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move, thereby protecting the adjusting assembly 3 and reducing damage to the adjusting assembly 3.

[0078] Specifically, the second set mode is the heating mode, and the second specific direction is a direction away from the panel.

[0079] Since the air deflector 1 exerts a pulling force on the adjusting assembly 3 in the heating mode, the direction in which the adjusting assembly 3 drives the air deflector 1 to move is consistent with the direction of the force exerted by the air deflector 1 on the adjusting assembly 3, so that the motor of the adjusting assembly 3 is not in a passive pulling state, thereby increasing the service life of the motor.

[0080] Specifically, the second set mode is the cooling mode, and the second specific direction is a direction toward the panel.

[0081] Since the air deflector 1 exerts a pushing force on the adjusting assembly 3 in the cooling mode, the direction in which the adjusting assembly 3 drives the air deflector 1 to move is consistent with the direction of the force exerted by the air deflector 1 on the adjusting assembly 3, so that the motor of the adjusting assembly 3 is not in a passive pushing state, thereby increasing the service life of the motor.

[0082] During the opening process of the air deflector 1, the set working mode is also opened, and the temperature of the air deflector 1 gradually tends to the temperature set by the set working mode. At this time, the second stress of the air deflector 1 changes with the temperature change of the air deflector 1, and accordingly, the second deformation amount of the air deflector 1 also changes in real time. The adjusting assembly 3 changes the force with which the air deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move in real time according to the real-time change of the second deformation amount of the air deflector 1, so as to prevent the air deflector 1 from damaging the driving part of the adjusting assembly 3.

[0083] Since the time for opening the air deflector 1 is short, the temperature of the air deflector 1 has not reached the set temperature of the set working mode after the air deflector 1 is opened. At this time, the temperature of the air deflector 1 still gradually changes to the set temperature, and at this time, the second stress of the air deflector 1 also changes in real time. Accordingly, the second deformation amount of the air deflector 1 also changes in real time. The adjusting assembly 3 changes the force with which the air deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move in real time according to the real-time change of the second deformation amount of the air deflector 1, so as to prevent the air deflector 1 from damaging the driving part of the adjusting assembly 3.

[0084] After the temperature of the air deflector 1 reaches the room temperature or the set temperature, the first stress and the second stress of the air deflector 1 tend to be stable, and correspondingly, the first deformation amount and the second deformation amount also tend to be stable, at which time the adjusting assembly 3 does not act.

[0085] The application also discloses a control assembly for a gap between an air deflector and a panel, so that the air deflector 1 is in a flat state, and the gap between the air deflector 1 and the panel is uniform.

[0086] The control assembly for the gap between the air deflector and the panel comprises a stress sensor 2, an adjusting assembly 3 and a controller.

[0087] The stress sensor 2 is used for acquiring the first stress of the air deflector 1 when and / or after the air deflector 1 is closed in a first set working mode.

[0088] The adjusting assembly 3 is installed on a skeleton of the air conditioner and is used for driving the air deflector 1 to move.

[0089] The stress sensor 2 is used for acquiring the first stress of the air deflector 1 when and / or after the air deflector 1 is closed in a first set working mode.

[0090] The controller is used for controlling the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the air deflector 1 to move in a first specific direction, so that the air deflector 1 is in a flat state, wherein the relationship between the first stress and the first deformation amount is a stress and deformation amount curve obtained through CAE analysis.

[0091] The stress sensor 2 and the adjusting assembly 3 are in communication connection with the controller.

[0092] The stress sensor 2 transmits the first stress of the air deflector 1 when and / or after the air deflector 1 is closed in the first set working mode to the controller.

[0093] The adjusting assembly 3 is installed on the skeleton of the air conditioner and is connected with the air deflector 1, and is used for driving the air deflector 1 to move.

[0094] The controller pre-stores the first stress and the first deformation amount curve obtained through CAE analysis and parameters corresponding to the curve, the controller acquires the first deformation amount of the air deflector 1 according to the acquired first stress and the first stress and the first deformation amount curve, and then controls the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the air deflector 1 to move in the first specific direction.

[0095] The control assembly for the gap between the air deflector and the panel disclosed by the application cooperates the stress sensor 2, the adjusting assembly 3 and the controller, so that the first deformation amount of the air deflector 1 is acquired in real time according to the change of the first stress of the air deflector 1 when and / or after the air deflector 1 is closed, the adjusting assembly 3 is controlled according to the first deformation amount to drive the air deflector 1 to move in the first specific direction, so that the air deflector 1 is in a flat state, and the gap between the air deflector 1 and the panel is uniform after the air deflector 1 is closed.

[0096] The first set working mode of the air conditioner has two modes, the first one is heating mode, and the second one is cooling mode.

[0097] When the air conditioner is in the heating mode, the ambient temperature is low, the deflector 1 is heated, the temperature of the deflector 1 gradually rises, stress occurs and the deflector 1 is deformed outwardly, and the deflector 1 is still in the outwardly deformed state when it is closed, resulting in uneven gaps between the deflector 1 and the panel.

[0098] In order to change the uneven gaps between the deflector and the panel, the adjusting assembly 3 applies a force to the deflector 1 towards the panel to change the outwardly deformed state of the deflector 1 and gradually to a flat state. When the deflector 1 is in the flat state, the gaps between the deflector 1 and the panel are uniform.

[0099] When the set working mode is the heating mode, the first specific direction is the direction towards the panel.

[0100] When the air conditioner is in the cooling mode, the ambient temperature is high, the deflector 1 is cooled, the temperature of the deflector 1 gradually drops, stress occurs and the deflector 1 is deformed inwardly, and the deflector 1 is still in the inwardly deformed state when it is closed, resulting in uneven gaps between the deflector 1 and the panel.

[0101] In order to change the uneven gaps between the deflector and the panel, the adjusting assembly 3 applies a force to the deflector 1 away from the panel to change the inwardly deformed state of the deflector 1 and gradually to a flat state. When the deflector 1 is in the flat state, the gaps between the deflector 1 and the panel are uniform.

[0102] When the set working mode is the cooling mode, the first specific direction is the direction away from the panel.

[0103] The stress sensor 2 in the application can also be used to obtain a second stress of the deflector 1 when and / or after the deflector 1 is opened in a second set working mode;

[0104] The controller is configured to control the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the deflector 1 to move towards a second specific direction according to a second deformation amount, so as to reduce the force with which the deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move, wherein the relationship between the second stress and the second deformation amount is a curve of stress and deformation amount obtained through CAE analysis.

[0105] In the heating mode, the temperature of the deflector 1 gradually rises during the opening process of the deflector 1, and even after the deflector 1 is completely opened, the deflector 1 is still in the state of gradually rising temperature, until the temperature of the deflector 1 reaches the set temperature of the heating mode.

[0106] During the opening process of the deflector 1 or during the process of the deflector 1 gradually rising in temperature, the deflector 1 will be deformed outwardly, at this time, a pulling force away from the panel will be applied to the adjusting assembly 3.

[0107] In the refrigeration mode, the temperature of the air deflector 1 gradually decreases during the opening process, and even after the air deflector 1 is fully opened, the air deflector 1 is still in a state of gradually decreasing temperature, until the temperature of the air deflector 1 reaches the set temperature of the refrigeration mode.

[0108] During the opening process of the air deflector 1 or when the air deflector 1 is in the gradually decreasing process, the air deflector 1 will undergo an inward deformation, at which time a pushing force towards the panel will be exerted on the adjusting assembly 3.

[0109] Whether the air deflector 1 exerts a pulling force on the adjusting assembly 3 in the heating mode or the air deflector 1 exerts a pushing force on the adjusting assembly 3 in the refrigeration mode, it will cause damage to the adjusting assembly 3.

[0110] The controller controls the adjusting assembly 3 to drive the air deflector 1 to move in a second specific direction according to the second deformation amount, so as to reduce the force with which the air deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move, thereby protecting the adjusting assembly 3 and reducing damage to the adjusting assembly 3.

[0111] Specifically, the second set mode is the heating mode, and the second specific direction is a direction away from the panel.

[0112] Since in the heating mode, the air deflector 1 will exert a pulling force on the adjusting assembly 3 in a direction away from the panel, at this time, the direction in which the adjusting assembly 3 drives the air deflector 1 to move is consistent with the direction of the force exerted by the air deflector 1 on the adjusting assembly 3, thereby ensuring that the motor of the adjusting assembly 3 is not in a passive pulling state, thereby increasing the service life of the motor.

[0113] Specifically, the second set mode is the refrigeration mode, and the second specific direction is a direction towards the panel.

[0114] Since in the refrigeration mode, the air deflector 1 will exert a pushing force on the adjusting assembly 3 in a direction towards the panel, at this time, the direction in which the adjusting assembly 3 drives the air deflector 1 to move is consistent with the direction of the force exerted by the air deflector 1 on the adjusting assembly 3, thereby ensuring that the motor of the adjusting assembly 3 is not in a passive pushing state, thereby increasing the service life of the motor.

[0115] During the opening process of the air deflector 1, the set working mode is also opened, and the temperature of the air deflector 1 will gradually tend to the temperature set by the set working mode, at which time the second stress of the air deflector 1 will change with the temperature change of the air deflector 1, and accordingly, the second deformation amount of the air deflector 1 will also change in real time, and the adjusting assembly 3 changes the force with which the air deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move in real time according to the real-time second deformation amount of the air deflector 1 obtained, so as to ensure that the air deflector 1 will not cause damage to the driving part of the adjusting assembly 3;

[0116] Because the time for which the deflector 1 is opened is short, the temperature of the deflector 1 has not reached the set temperature of the set working mode after the deflector 1 is opened, at this time, the temperature of the deflector 1 still gradually changes to the set temperature, at this time, the second stress of the deflector 1 also changes in real time, accordingly, the second deformation amount of the deflector 1 also changes in real time, the adjusting assembly 3 changes the force with which the deflector 1 drives the adjusting assembly 3 to move in real time according to the second deformation amount of the deflector 1 obtained in real time, so as to ensure that the deflector 1 will not cause damage to the driving part of the adjusting assembly 3.

[0117] After the temperature of the deflector 1 reaches the room temperature or the set temperature, the first stress and the second stress of the deflector 1 tend to be stable, accordingly, the first deformation amount and the second deformation amount also tend to be stable, at this time, the adjusting assembly 3 does not act.

[0118] In some embodiments of the present application, the adjusting assembly 3 comprises a gear 31, a first motor 32 and a rack 33.

[0119] The first motor 32 is installed on the framework, and the gear 31 is installed on the output shaft of the first motor 32;

[0120] A rack groove 4 is formed on the framework of the air conditioner, the rack 33 is installed in the rack groove 4, the rack 33 is engaged with the gear 31, and one end of the rack 33 close to the deflector 1 is hingedly connected with the deflector 1.

[0121] The first motor 32 drives the gear 31 to rotate, the gear 31 drives the rack 33 to rotate, and then the rack 33 drives the deflector 1 to move.

[0122] Specifically, the number of rotation of the gear 31 driven by the first motor 32 is controlled to control the force exerted by the rack 33 on the deflector 1;
