AI Technical Summary
Existing dehumidifiers do not consider the possibility of residual water dripping from the evaporator when the water is full, which can cause the bottom of the machine to get wet, affecting its appearance and creating a safety hazard.
By analyzing coil temperature, ambient humidity, and water volume in the drip tray, the fan speed is precisely controlled to prevent residual moisture from the evaporator from wetting the bottom of the machine. Combined with the real-time status of the liquid level switch, the fan operation mode is adjusted to ensure safety and energy saving.
This effectively avoids the safety hazard of residual moisture in the evaporator soaking the bottom of the machine, while reducing unnecessary energy consumption and ensuring the energy-saving and emission-reduction performance of the air conditioner.

In the water full protection mode, the coil temperature TE, the ambient humidity HI and the water pan water amount L are detected and judged by steps S421-S422. If the coil temperature TE < the first threshold temperature T1, HI < the first threshold humidity A1 and the water pan water amount L > the first threshold water amount L01, it indicates that it is more conducive to dehumidification, and the water amount L of the water pan has reached the first threshold water amount L01 of the water pan. Then, step S423 is entered, the fan is kept running at the high wind level for a third preset time t3, the water evaporation of the evaporator is accelerated to avoid safety hazards. In the water full protection mode, the coil temperature TE, the ambient humidity HI and the water pan water amount L after the fan is kept running at the high wind level for the third preset time t3 are detected and judged by steps S424-S425. If the first threshold temperature T1 ≤ the coil temperature TE < the second threshold temperature T2, the first threshold humidity A1 ≤ the ambient humidity HI < the second threshold humidity A2 and the second threshold water amount L02 < the water pan water amount L ≤ the first threshold water amount L01, it indicates that the coil temperature and humidity rise to a certain range value, and it is considered that the dehumidification capacity gradually decreases. Then, step S426 is entered, the fan is kept running at the medium wind level for a fourth preset time t4. In the water full protection mode, the coil temperature TE, the ambient humidity HI and the water pan water amount L after the fan is kept running at the medium wind level for the fourth preset time t4 are detected and judged by steps S427-S428. If the second threshold temperature T2 ≤ the coil temperature TE < the third threshold temperature T3, the second threshold humidity A2 ≤ the ambient humidity HI < the third threshold humidity A3 and the third threshold water amount L03 < the water pan water amount L ≤ the second threshold water amount L02, it indicates that the water amount L of the water pan continues to decrease. Then, step S429 is entered, the fan is kept running at the low wind level for a fifth preset time t5. In the water full protection mode, the coil temperature TE, the ambient humidity HI and the water pan water amount L after the fan is kept running at the low wind level for the fifth preset time t5 are detected and judged by steps S420-S421. If the third threshold temperature T3 ≤ the coil temperature TE < the fourth threshold temperature T4, the third threshold humidity A3 ≤ the ambient humidity HI < the fourth threshold humidity A4 and the fourth threshold water amount L04 < the water pan water amount L ≤ the third threshold water amount L03, it indicates that the coil temperature TE is about to rise to the fourth threshold temperature T4, the ambient humidity HI is about to rise to the fourth threshold humidity A4, and the water amount L of the water pan is about to decrease to the fourth threshold water amount L04, which is the minimum water amount that the water pan can bear. It indicates that the water amount L of the water pan is almost none, and no special treatment is needed. Then, step S42 is entered, at this time the fan is stopped, the display panel displays water full protection, and the user is reminded to pull out the water tank to pour water.
[0030] In summary, in step S42, steps S421-S4211 are interrelated and inseparable, and the overall situation of the dehumidification device is analyzed and processed in three dimensions by the three variable values of the coil temperature TE, the ambient humidity HI, and the water amount L of the water pan. Four levels of judgment are made on the coil temperature TE, the ambient humidity HI, and the water amount L of the water pan. First, the first level of judgment condition is met, then the second level of judgment condition is met after running for a period of time, then the third level of judgment condition is met after running for a period of time, then the fourth level of judgment condition is met after running for a period of time, and then step S42 is entered. At this time, the fan is stopped, the display panel displays the full water protection, and the user is reminded to pull out the water tank to pour water. On the one hand, the overall situation of the dehumidification device can be analyzed and processed through the layer-by-layer judgment conditions, and the operation of the fan can be more accurately controlled, so that the moisture in the evaporator is gradually evaporated, and the safety hazard of the machine bottom caused by the residual moisture in the evaporator is avoided. On the other hand, unnecessary fan rotation can be avoided, which is conducive to avoiding unnecessary energy consumption of the air conditioner and maximizing the energy-saving and emission-reducing performance of the air conditioner.
[0031] Further, in the process of step S4, the dehumidification device acquires the state of the liquid level switch in real time, and determines whether the liquid level switch is closed continuously for a period of t2. If yes, the full water protection mode is exited, and the dehumidification device is normally operated.

Four levels of judgment are made on the coil temperature TE, the ambient humidity HI, and the water pan water amount L. First, the first level of judgment condition is met, then the second level of judgment condition is met after running for a period of time, then the third level of judgment condition is met after running for a period of time, then the fourth level of judgment condition is met after running for a period of time, and then step S42 is entered. At this time, the fan is stopped, the display panel displays the water full protection, and the user is reminded to pull out the water tank to pour water. On the one hand, the overall situation of the dehumidifying device can be analyzed and processed through the layer-by-layer judgment conditions, and the operation of the fan can be more accurately controlled, so that the moisture in the evaporator is gradually evaporated, and the safety hazard of the machine bottom caused by the residual moisture in the evaporator is avoided.
