Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Currently, due to different usage scenarios, users have varying needs for household air conditioners. For example, air conditioners installed in the kitchen are used less frequently and mostly operate in cooling mode. Because they are mostly used during the hot summer months, remote controls are often lost. Also, because each use is for a short period, frequent on / off cycles are necessary, making them inconvenient to use.

[0003] The related technology discloses a control method for a kitchen air conditioner, including: acquiring environmental information of the kitchen, including the on / off status of the range hood and whether anyone is in the kitchen; determining whether a total heat exchanger is turned on based on the environmental information; entering a fresh air mode when the total heat exchanger is turned on; acquiring the ambient temperature and clothing information of the kitchen; controlling the working mode of the total heat exchanger based on the ambient temperature and clothing information, wherein when the ambient temperature is less than a first preset temperature and the person is wearing winter clothing, the total heat exchanger turns on the heating mode and exchanges fresh air; when the ambient temperature is greater than a second preset temperature and the person is wearing summer clothing, the total heat exchanger turns on the cooling mode and exchanges fresh air, and the second preset temperature is greater than the first preset temperature.

[0004] In the process of implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related art:

[0005] While the above solution can enable the kitchen air conditioner to turn on automatically, its control method adjusts based on the user's clothing. Therefore, during airflow, it prioritizes ensuring the user's perceived temperature and cannot account for the impact of the stove flame on the surrounding temperature.

[0006] 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.

[0007] To provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments, a brief summary is given below. This summary is not intended as a general commentary, nor is it intended to identify key / important components or describe the scope of protection of these embodiments, but rather as a prelude to the detailed description that follows.

[0008] This disclosure provides a control method and control device for a kitchen air conditioner, an air conditioner, and a storage medium, to ensure accurate temperature regulation while the kitchen air conditioner is running automatically.

[0014] Optionally, the air conditioner further includes a second temperature detection device for detecting the ambient temperature; if the first temperature value is less than a high temperature threshold, it further includes: if indoor occupants are detected, acquiring a second temperature value detected by the second temperature detection device; if the second temperature value is greater than a set temperature, controlling the air conditioner to start operation.

[0015] Optionally, if the second temperature value is greater than the set temperature, the method further includes: if the first temperature value is greater than or equal to a high temperature threshold, acquiring a temperature change curve of the first temperature detection device within a set time period; determining the current user's cooking strategy based on the temperature change curve; and adjusting the operating status of the air conditioner based on the cooking strategy.

[0019] The control method and control device for kitchen air conditioners, the air conditioner itself, and the storage medium provided in this disclosure can achieve the following technical effects:

[0020] If the first temperature value detected by the first temperature detection device is greater than or equal to the high-temperature threshold, it is determined that the user has turned on the stove. At this point, the specific location of the first temperature value is determined, thereby identifying the target range that the air conditioner needs to consider during operation. Based on the first temperature value and the target range, a target temperature control strategy for the air conditioner is determined. This strategy ensures the air conditioner's temperature control efficiency without affecting the normal operation of the stove. Therefore, while achieving automatic operation of the kitchen air conditioner, the accuracy of its temperature regulation is guaranteed.

[0029] To provide a more detailed understanding of the features and technical content of the embodiments of this disclosure, the implementation of the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this disclosure. In the following technical description, for ease of explanation, several details are used to provide a full understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may still be implemented without these details. In other cases, well-known structures and devices may be simplified in their depiction to simplify the drawings.

[0030] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this disclosure are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate for the embodiments of this disclosure described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0031] Unless otherwise stated, the term "multiple" means two or more.

[0032] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the character " / " indicates that the objects before and after it are in an "or" relationship. For example, A / B means: A or B.

[0033] The term "and / or" describes an association between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or A and B.

[0034] The term "correspondence" can refer to an association or binding relationship. The correspondence between A and B means that there is an association or binding relationship between A and B.

[0035] In addition, the term "settings" should be interpreted broadly.

[0036] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0037] In the disclosed embodiments, the terminal device refers to an electronic device with wireless connectivity. The terminal device can communicate with smart home appliances via the internet, or directly via Bluetooth, WiFi, or other methods. In some embodiments, the terminal device may be, for example, a mobile device, a computer, or an in-vehicle device built into a hovercraft, or any combination thereof. Mobile devices may include, for example, mobile phones, smart home devices, wearable devices, smart mobile devices, virtual reality devices, or any combination thereof. Wearable devices may include, for example, smartwatches, smart bracelets, pedometers, etc.

[0038] This disclosure provides an air conditioner including a first temperature detection device, a second temperature detection device, and a processor. The first temperature detection device detects whether a sudden change in local temperature occurs, i.e., whether the stove is turned on. The second temperature detection device detects overall changes in the indoor ambient temperature. The processor is electrically connected to the first and second temperature detection devices and controls the operating state of the air conditioner based on the detection information from the first and second temperature detection devices.

[0039] In conjunction with the above-described air conditioner, this disclosure provides a control method for a kitchen air conditioner. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the above method includes:

[0040] S10, the processor obtains the first temperature value detected by the first temperature detection device.

[0041] S11, if the first temperature value is greater than or equal to the high temperature threshold, the processor determines the target range based on the first temperature value.

[0042] Optionally, determining the target range based on the first temperature value includes: the processor determining the temperature location information corresponding to the first temperature value; the processor acquiring the location information of indoor users; and the processor determining the corresponding target range based on the temperature location information and the personnel location information.

[0043] This allows for a better determination of the target airflow range of the air conditioner based on the specific location of the user and the stove. This ensures a lower perceived temperature for the user while avoiding any impact on the stove's flame. For example, an initial temperature adjustment range can be determined based on the user's location. Then, areas potentially affecting the stove's flame that fall within this initial range can be eliminated. Alternatively, the stove's location can be determined first, and its location can be avoided during the target range determination process based on the user's location. For instance, when the stove is on and the user is detected near it, the relative positions of the stove and user are analyzed to determine the potential impact of the air conditioner's airflow on the stove's flame. Based on the analysis results, the specific area to be avoided can be determined. This could be the vertical projected area of ​​the cookware, half the total area of ​​the stove, or the entire area of ​​the stove; the specific avoidance range depends on the actual analysis results. The high-temperature threshold is any value within the range of [400, 600]℃. Preferably, the temperature can be 490℃, 500℃, or 550℃. Furthermore, different high-temperature thresholds can be set depending on the location of the temperature sampling. For example, when sampling the flame core temperature, the high-temperature threshold can be any value within [750, 850]℃. Preferably, it can be 780℃, 800℃, or 810℃. When sampling the edge flame temperature, the high-temperature threshold can be any value within [1250, 1350]℃. Preferably, it can be 1270℃, 1300℃, or 1320℃. Alternatively, a comprehensive determination can be made by simultaneously sampling the flame core temperature and the edge flame temperature, and then a corresponding high-temperature threshold can be set; no specific limitation is made here.

[0044] S12, the processor determines the target temperature control strategy for the air conditioner based on the first temperature value and the target range.

[0045] Optionally, the processor determines the target temperature control strategy for the air conditioner based on the first temperature value and the target range, including: the processor determining the airflow angle of the air conditioner based on the target range; and the processor determining the target temperature and airflow speed of the air conditioner based on the first temperature value.

[0046] This allows for better adjustment of the air conditioner's temperature control strategy based on the user's specific location and the location of the stove flame, thus ensuring the air conditioner's temperature control effect. For example, when the stove is on and the user is detected near it, the relative positions of the stove and the user are analyzed to determine the potential impact of the air conditioner's airflow on the stove flame. This analysis of the relative positions of the stove and the user can be performed by the processor based on multi-angle images and / or video information acquired by a camera or image acquisition device, analyzing the relative distance and angle. This allows for the determination of how to ensure efficient temperature control for the user while avoiding any impact on the air conditioner's airflow angle, outlet temperature, and airflow speed, or the corresponding airflow range, outlet temperature, and airflow speed, caused by the stove flame.

[0047] The control method for a kitchen air conditioner provided in this embodiment ensures accurate temperature regulation while the air conditioner operates automatically. When a first temperature value detected by the first temperature detection device is greater than or equal to a high-temperature threshold, it is determined that the user has turned on the stove. At this point, the specific location of the first temperature value is determined, and a target range is then defined. This target range can include or exclude the specific location of the first temperature value. It is determined based on actual usage needs and is not specifically limited here. Based on the first temperature value and the target range, a target temperature regulation strategy is determined that ensures the air conditioner's temperature regulation efficiency without affecting the normal operation of the stove. Thus, the accuracy of temperature regulation is ensured while the kitchen air conditioner operates automatically.

[0048] Optionally, after determining the target temperature control strategy for the air conditioner, the method further includes: the processor acquiring the identity information of the indoor user. Based on the identity information, the processor modifies the target temperature control strategy to obtain a first modified temperature control strategy.

[0049] This allows for better adjustments to the temperature control strategy based on varying user habits. Identification methods include, for example, using facial recognition to identify the user, accessing information from wearable devices in the kitchen, or pre-learning and storing the usage habits of other users in the household. The specific method of obtaining user identification information is not limited here. Based on the user's identification, the temperature control habits of the current user are determined by calling relevant data models. For instance, whether the user prefers direct airflow, and if so, whether they prefer face-to-face or back-to-back airflow. The correlation between ambient temperature and perceived temperature, the user's clothing habits in the kitchen during different seasons, and the impact of different clothing on perceived temperature are also considered. Furthermore, based on different user habits, the initially determined target temperature control strategy can be modified to improve the user experience.

[0050] Optionally, after determining the target temperature control strategy for the air conditioner, the method further includes: if the number of people in the room is greater than one, the processor acquires the behavior information of each person in the room. Based on the behavior information, the processor modifies the target temperature control strategy to obtain a second modified temperature control strategy.

[0051] This allows for adjustments to the target temperature control strategy based on the states of multiple people in the room, ensuring a good user experience in multi-user scenarios. Multi-angle images and / or video information acquired by cameras or image acquisition devices can be used to determine the behavioral information of each user. For example, a user may be in different states such as chopping vegetables, plating, cooking, or washing vegetables. The temperature control strategy of the air conditioner is adjusted accordingly based on the different heat generated by each user's different behavioral states, thus meeting the needs of each user. Preferably, the temperature control strategy can be adjusted based on the user's identity information and their current behavioral state, using a personalized user model. This avoids a mismatch between the temperature control strategy and the heat generated by the user, which could reduce user comfort. For example, a user cooking might generate less heat than a user washing vegetables; in this case, following the conventional airflow logic would result in both experiencing discomfort.

[0052] Combination Figure 2 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, another control method for a kitchen air conditioner is provided, including:

[0053] S20, the processor obtains the first temperature value detected by the first temperature detection device.

[0054] S21, if the first temperature value is less than the high temperature threshold and an indoor person is detected, the processor acquires the second temperature value detected by the second temperature detection device.

[0055] S22, if the second temperature value is greater than the set temperature, the processor controls the air conditioner to start running.

[0056] The control method for a kitchen air conditioner provided in this disclosure allows the air conditioner to operate automatically even when the user is not using cooking utensils. This ensures that the user's temperature needs are met when preparing dishes that do not require a stove, such as sushi, healthy meals, and cold dishes. The set temperature can be determined based on information about the user in the kitchen, selected from the set temperatures of other rooms such as the living room, or set by the user themselves. User-set temperature can be done via voice or by sending corresponding control commands. Preferably, the user can set the processor to control the air conditioner to start operating when no occupants are detected in the room and the second temperature value is higher than the set temperature. The operating mode can be a low-fan speed cooling mode to prevent the temperature from being too high when the user first enters the kitchen.

[0057] Combination Figure 3 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, another control method for a kitchen air conditioner is provided, including:

[0058] S30, the processor obtains the first temperature value detected by the first temperature detection device.

[0059] S31, if the first temperature value is less than the high temperature threshold and an indoor person is detected, the processor acquires the second temperature value detected by the second temperature detection device.

[0060] S32, when the second temperature value is greater than the set temperature, the processor controls the air conditioner to start running.

[0061] S33, when the first temperature value is greater than or equal to the high temperature threshold, the processor obtains the temperature change curve of the first temperature detection device within a set time period.

[0062] S34, the processor determines the current user's cooking strategy based on the temperature change curve.

[0063] S35, the processor adjusts the air conditioner's operating status according to the cooking strategy.

[0064] The control method for a kitchen air conditioner provided in this disclosure can infer the user's cooking strategy based on changes in the stove flame temperature, thereby adjusting the indoor temperature in advance to ensure a good user experience. Preferably, to ensure the accuracy of the cooking strategy judgment, a comprehensive inference can be made based on the user's cooking utensils, the vegetables and meats being prepared during washing and cutting, etc. After determining the user's cooking strategy, the air conditioner's operating status can be pre-adjusted before changes in the stove flame temperature, thus ensuring the stability of the indoor temperature.

[0065] Optionally, if the first temperature value is less than the high-temperature threshold and no occupants are detected indoors, the processor obtains the duration of the occupants' absence. If the absence duration is greater than or equal to the duration threshold, the processor controls the air conditioner to stop operating.

[0066] This allows the air conditioner to automatically shut off. If no one is in the kitchen for an extended period, the air conditioner will stop operating to reduce energy consumption. Based on user habits analysis, if users frequently enter and exit the kitchen, the air conditioner can also be controlled to operate in a preset mode, such as low-speed cooling, to ensure the comfort of subsequent users. The specific operating mode can be determined according to actual usage needs and is not specifically limited here.

[0067] Optionally, if the first temperature value is less than the high temperature threshold and no occupants are detected indoors, and the second temperature value is less than or equal to the set temperature, the processor controls the air conditioner to stop operating.

[0068] In this way, the air conditioner can be automatically turned off while effectively reducing its energy consumption. Based on user habits analysis, such as frequent movement in and out of the kitchen, the air conditioner can also be controlled to operate in a pre-defined mode.

Optionally, the device may further include a communication interface 303 and a bus 304. The processor 301, communication interface 303, and memory 302 can communicate with each other via the bus 304.
