[0040] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, but are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0041] In order to clearly illustrate the air conditioning equipment and the air outlet control method, device and medium based on the embodiment of the present invention, the following is combined with Figure 1 The flow chart of the air outlet control method based on the air conditioning equipment is described as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the air outlet control method based on the air conditioning equipment in the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:
[0042] S11: Determine spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room, wherein the spatial position information includes the installation position of the air conditioning equipment and the corresponding position characteristic angle;
[0043] S13: Determine compensation parameters according to the position characteristic angle and the installation position;
[0044] S15: Correcting and controlling the air outlet parameters of the air conditioning equipment according to the compensation parameters.
[0045] According to the air outlet control method based on air conditioning equipment of the present invention, the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room can be automatically detected, and the air outlet parameters of the air conditioning equipment can be automatically adjusted according to the detected spatial position information, and the operation of the air conditioning equipment can be controlled according to the adjusted air outlet parameters, thereby reducing the user's operating cost, providing the user with intelligent and accurate air supply services, and improving the user experience.
[0046] It can be understood that in the relevant technology, ordinary air-conditioning equipment cannot self-detect its own installation position in the room, and its corresponding remote control does not have relevant function settings. When the air-conditioning equipment is installed near the left wall or the right wall, the air-conditioning equipment sweeps the air left and right according to the pre-set air outlet control strategy. There may be a situation where air is supplied to the left wall or the right wall for a long time, which easily causes waste of cooling capacity and reduces the overall energy saving of the air-conditioning equipment. The solution is to require the user to manually adjust and fix the air outlet angle of the left and right air guide plates. However, this not only increases the user's operating cost, but also when the air-conditioning equipment continues to supply air at a fixed angle, on the one hand, it cannot meet the user's demand for uniform air supply, and on the other hand, it is easy to cause harm to the user's health. High-end air-conditioning equipment cannot self-detect its own installation position in the room, and requires the installer to set the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment on its corresponding remote control. However, the relevant settings are relatively rough and can only set the rough installation position of the air-conditioning equipment. The accuracy of air outlet control is still poor, and when the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment changes, the installation position needs to be reset. Otherwise, the same defects as ordinary air-conditioning equipment will exist.
[0047] That is to say, in the related art, the air-conditioning equipment cannot automatically detect its own installation position indoors, and automatically adjust the air outlet parameters of the air-conditioning equipment according to its own installation position indoors. As a result, the air-conditioning equipment in the related art has problems such as low intelligence, low air outlet control accuracy, complex operation, and impact on user experience.
[0048] In the air outlet control method based on air conditioning equipment of the present invention, the air conditioning equipment can automatically determine its own installation position in the room and the position of the indoor user, as well as the position characteristic angle corresponding to the installation position, and determine the compensation parameters according to the automatically determined installation position and the automatically determined position characteristic angle, and correct the air outlet parameters of the air conditioning equipment according to the compensation parameters. Therefore, when performing air outlet control, the air conditioning equipment can be automatically controlled according to the corrected air outlet parameters, thereby improving the intelligence level of the air conditioning equipment, and achieving more accurate air outlet control without the user performing complicated operations, which is conducive to improving user experience.
[0049] Specifically, air conditioning equipment includes but is not limited to wall-mounted air conditioners. In some embodiments, the air conditioning equipment itself may include a radar or other position detection sensor, and the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room can be automatically determined by analyzing the acquired radar data or other position detection sensor data. In some embodiments, the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room can also be automatically generated by other household appliances. The air conditioning equipment can communicate with other household appliances and obtain its own spatial position information. Other household appliances include but are not limited to televisions, water dispensers, sweeping robots or other air conditioning equipment. In other embodiments, the spatial position information can also be actively input by the user to meet the control needs of different users, which is not limited here.
[0050] The correspondence between different position characteristic angles, different installation positions, and compensation parameters can be pre-calibrated and stored. This allows for the rapid and direct determination of the corresponding compensation parameters based on the correspondence after the installation position and position characteristic angle are determined. Alternatively, the correspondence can be calculated in real time after the installation position and position characteristic angle are determined without pre-calibrating the correspondence, thus saving storage space.
[0051] The air flow parameters of the air conditioning equipment include, but are not limited to, left-right air flow angles, up-down air flow angles, and air flow duration. The air flow parameters of the air conditioning equipment may be pre-set without considering different spatial location information. These parameters may be stored on the air conditioning equipment or in the cloud. When the air flow parameters are stored in the cloud, the air conditioning equipment may communicate with the cloud to obtain the air flow parameters.
[0052] In certain embodiments, the air output parameters of an air conditioning device may be related to the operating mode of the air conditioning device and the user's location. Operating modes may include functional modes and air supply modes. Functional modes may include wind-away mode and normal mode. Air supply modes may include cooling mode, dehumidification mode, heating mode, etc. The air output parameters corresponding to each operating mode and user's location may be partially the same or completely different.
[0053] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, step S11 includes:
[0054] S111: Determine a first target corner and a second target corner in the room, wherein the first target corner, the second target corner, and an air conditioning device are located on the same horizontal plane, the first target corner and the second target corner are both located on one side of the air conditioning device, and the first target corner and the air conditioning device are located on the same wall surface;
[0055] S113: Using a line connecting the first target wall corner and the location of the air conditioning device as a first angle line, using a line connecting the second target wall corner and the location of the air conditioning device as a second angle line, and using an angle between the first angle line and the second angle line as a position feature angle;
[0056] S115: Determine the installation position according to the position feature angle.
[0057] In this way, the characteristic position angle and installation position of the air conditioning equipment when installed indoors can be automatically determined. It is understandable that because the installation position of the air conditioning equipment has a greater impact on horizontal airflow, i.e., left-right airflow, and a smaller impact on vertical airflow, i.e., up-and-down airflow, the characteristic position angle of the air conditioning equipment is determined based on two wall corners on the same horizontal plane as the air conditioning equipment, rather than two wall corners on the same vertical plane as the air conditioning equipment. The compensation parameters determined based on the characteristic position angle can better correct the airflow parameters of the air conditioning equipment.
[0058] Specifically, the air conditioning equipment can be installed on the first wall of the room. In this case, the installation position can be understood as the position of the air conditioning equipment relative to the first wall. The room may include a first side wall and a second side wall respectively connected to the first wall where the air conditioning equipment is installed, and a second wall connected to the first side wall and the second side wall and arranged opposite to the first wall. The horizontal plane where the air conditioning equipment is located may intersect with the first wall at a first line segment, may intersect with the second wall at a second line segment, may intersect with the first side wall at a third line segment, and may intersect with the second side wall at a fourth line segment. Please combine Figure 3 The first line segment Q1Q2, the second line segment Q3Q4, the third line segment Q1Q3, and the fourth line segment Q2Q4 form a quadrilateral closed space. The four vertices Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 of the quadrilateral closed space can be understood as four corners. The first target corner can be understood as the vertex at one end of the third line segment Q1Q3, and the second target corner can be understood as the vertex at the other end of the third line segment Q1Q3. Alternatively, the first target corner can be understood as the vertex at one end of the fourth line segment Q2Q4, and the second target corner can be understood as the vertex at the other end of the fourth line segment Q2Q4.
[0059] Furthermore, the air conditioning equipment may include a radar, and a rectangular coordinate system may be established with the location of the air conditioning equipment as the coordinate origin O. Based on the echo data received by the radar, the coordinates of the four wall corners in the room that are on the same horizontal plane as the location of the air conditioning equipment can be determined, and then the angle value of the angle between the second angle line and the first angle line can be calculated, and the angle value can be used as the position feature angle, and the installation position can be determined based on the angle value.
[0060] In an example, the first target corner is Q1 and the second target corner is Q3, then the first angle line is OQ1 and the second angle line is OQ3. Since the coordinates of the second target corner Q3 and the coordinates of the first target corner Q1 are known, and the connecting line Q1Q3 between the first target corner Q1 and the second target corner Q3 together with the first angle line OQ1 and the second angle line OQ3 form a right triangle, the position feature angle α can be calculated by the following formula: α = arccos(a / b), where a represents the length of the first angle line OQ1 and b represents the length of the second angle line OQ3.
[0061] It should be noted that the position characteristic angle is the acute angle formed by the first angle line and the second angle line, rather than the obtuse angle formed by the first angle line and the second angle line. The position characteristic angle is less than or equal to 90 degrees.
[0062] In one embodiment, the third target corner, the first target corner, and the air conditioning equipment are located on the same wall surface, and the first target corner and the third target corner are located on either side of the air conditioning equipment, respectively. Step S115 includes:
[0063] S1157: When the position characteristic angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to the first angle, determine that the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target wall corner is greater than the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target wall corner;
[0064] S1158: When the position characteristic angle is greater than the first angle and less than or equal to the second angle, determining that the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target wall corner is approximately equal to the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target wall corner;
[0065] S1159: When the position characteristic angle is greater than the second angle and less than or equal to 90°, determine that the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target wall corner is less than the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target wall corner.
[0066] In this way, it is possible to automatically determine whether the air conditioning equipment is close to the first target corner, close to the third target corner, or is substantially equidistant from the first target corner and the third target corner according to the position characteristic angle.
[0067] Specifically, the first angle can be 40°, and the second angle can be 50°, that is, when the position characteristic angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 40°, it can be automatically determined that the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target wall corner is greater than the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target wall corner; when the position characteristic angle is greater than 40° and less than or equal to 50°, it can be automatically determined that the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target wall corner is approximately equal to the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target wall corner; when the position characteristic angle is greater than 50° and less than or equal to 90°, it can be automatically determined that the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target wall corner is less than the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target wall corner.
[0068] In one embodiment, the first target corner is located on the right side of the air conditioning equipment, and the third target corner is located on the left side of the air conditioning equipment. Step S13 includes:
[0069] S134: When the distance between the air conditioning device and the first target wall corner is greater than the distance between the air conditioning device and the third target wall corner, using an angle parameter corresponding to the position feature angle as a compensation parameter;
[0070] S135: When the distance between the air conditioning device and the first target wall corner is approximately equal to the distance between the air conditioning device and the third target wall corner, use 0° as a compensation parameter;
[0071] S136: When the distance between the air conditioning device and the first target wall corner is smaller than the distance between the air conditioning device and the third target wall corner, use the negative value of the angle parameter corresponding to the position feature angle as a compensation parameter.
[0072] In this way, selecting a more appropriate compensation parameter based on the installation location of the air conditioning equipment facilitates corrective control for different installation locations. It will be appreciated that, typically, the air flow parameters of the air conditioning equipment are pre-set based on the assumption that the air conditioning equipment is installed in an intermediate position, i.e., the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target corner is approximately equal to the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target corner. Therefore, when the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the first target corner is automatically determined to be approximately equal to the distance between the air conditioning equipment and the third target corner, no correction is made to the pre-set air flow parameters, i.e., the compensation parameter is determined to be 0°, thereby directly controlling the operation of the air conditioning equipment using the pre-set air flow parameters.
[0073] Specifically, the angle parameter corresponding to the position characteristic angle is a positive value. If the angle parameter corresponding to the position characteristic angle is denoted as α, then the negative value of the angle parameter corresponding to the position characteristic angle is -α. When the air conditioner is closer to the corner of the wall to its right, the compensation parameter is a negative value; when the air conditioner is closer to the corner of the wall to its left, the compensation parameter is a positive value. The compensation parameter is the angle value used to compensate for the angle.
[0074] See also Figure 4 In one embodiment, the first target corner and the second target corner are both located on the right side of the air conditioning equipment, wherein step S115 includes:
[0075] S1151: When the position characteristic angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to the first angle, determine that the air conditioning device is installed at the left position;
[0076] S1152: When the position characteristic angle is greater than the first angle and less than or equal to the second angle, determine that the air conditioning device is installed in the middle position and the first angle is less than or equal to the second angle;
[0077] S1153: When the position characteristic angle is greater than the second angle and less than or equal to 90°, determine that the air conditioning equipment is installed at the right position.
[0078] In this way, it is possible to automatically determine whether the installation position of the air conditioning equipment is located at the left position, the middle position, or the right position according to the position characteristic angle.
[0079] Specifically, the first angle can be 40°, and the second angle can be 50°, that is, when the position characteristic angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 40°, the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment can be automatically determined to be on the left; when the position characteristic angle is greater than 40° and less than or equal to 50°, the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment can be automatically determined to be in the middle; when the position characteristic angle is greater than 50° and less than or equal to 90°, the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment can be automatically determined to be on the right.
[0080] It should be noted that the right side of the air conditioning device should be understood as the right side of the air conditioning device itself, that is, the right side along the air outlet direction of the air conditioning device, and should not be directly understood as the right side of the user's line of sight, because the right side of the user's line of sight may be in two completely opposite directions from the right side of the air conditioning device. The air conditioning device can pre-determine its two target wall corners on the right side, and determine the first target wall corner and the second target wall corner of the two target wall corners on the right side, and then determine the installation position of the air conditioning device based on its two target wall corners on the right side. Similarly, the left position should be understood as the left position of the wall itself, and should not be directly understood as the left position of the user's line of sight; the right position should be understood as the right position of the wall itself, and should not be directly understood as the right position of the user's line of sight.
[0081] See also Figure 5 In one embodiment, the first target corner and the second target corner are both located on the left side of the air conditioning equipment, wherein step S115 includes:
[0082] S1154: When the position characteristic angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to the first angle, determine that the air conditioning device is installed at the right position;
[0083] S1155: When the position characteristic angle is greater than the first angle and less than or equal to the second angle, determine that the air conditioning device is installed in the middle position and the first angle is less than or equal to the second angle;
[0084] S1156: When the position characteristic angle is greater than the second angle and less than or equal to 90°, determine that the air conditioning equipment is installed at the left position.
[0085] In this way, it is possible to automatically determine whether the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment is the left position, the middle position or the right position according to the position characteristic angle.
[0086] In this way, it is possible to automatically determine whether the installation position of the air conditioning equipment is located at the left position, the middle position, or the right position according to the position characteristic angle.
[0087] Specifically, the first angle can be 40°, and the second angle can be 50°, that is, when the position characteristic angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 40°, the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment can be automatically determined to be on the right side; when the position characteristic angle is greater than 40° and less than or equal to 50°, the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment can be automatically determined to be in the middle position; when the position characteristic angle is greater than 50° and less than or equal to 90°, the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment can be automatically determined to be on the left side.
[0088] It should be noted that the left side of the air conditioning device should be understood as the left side of the air conditioning device itself, that is, the left side along the air outlet direction of the air conditioning device, and can be directly understood as the left side of the user's line of sight, because the left side of the user's line of sight may be in two completely opposite directions from the left side of the air conditioning device. The air conditioning device can pre-determine the two target wall corners on its left side, and determine the first target wall corner and the second target wall corner of the two target wall corners on its left side, and then determine the installation position of the air conditioning device based on the two target wall corners on its left side. Similarly, the left position should be understood as the left position of the wall itself, and cannot be directly understood as the left position of the user's line of sight; the right position should be understood as the right position of the wall itself, and cannot be directly understood as the right position of the user's line of sight.
[0089] See also Figure 6 In one embodiment, step S13 includes:
[0090] S131: When the air conditioning device is installed on the left side, an angle parameter corresponding to the position characteristic angle is used as a compensation parameter;
[0091] S132: When the air conditioning equipment is installed in the middle position, 0° is used as the compensation parameter;
[0092] S133: When the air conditioning device is installed at the right position, the negative value of the angle parameter corresponding to the position characteristic angle is used as a compensation parameter.
[0093] In this way, selecting the most appropriate compensation parameter based on the installation location of the air conditioning device facilitates corrective control for different installation locations. It is understood that, typically, the air conditioning device's outlet parameters are pre-set based on the situation where the air conditioning device is installed in a neutral position. Therefore, when the air conditioning device's installation location is automatically determined to be in a neutral position, no correction is made to the pre-set outlet parameters, i.e., the compensation parameter is determined to be 0°, thereby directly controlling the operation of the air conditioning device using the pre-set outlet parameters.
[0094] Specifically, the angle parameter corresponding to the position feature angle is a positive value. If the angle parameter corresponding to the position feature angle is denoted as α, the negative value of the angle parameter corresponding to the position feature angle is -α. The compensation parameter is also the angle value used to compensate for the angle.
[0095] See also Figure 7 In one embodiment, step S15 includes:
[0096] S151: Determine the target angles of the left and right air guides of the air conditioning equipment;
[0097] S153: Correcting and controlling the target angle according to the compensation parameters.
[0098] In this way, users can be provided with intelligent and accurate air supply services.
[0099] Specifically, in one embodiment, the target angles of the left and right air guides of the air-conditioning equipment are determined according to the working mode of the air-conditioning equipment and the position of the user. The working mode may include a functional mode and an air supply mode. The functional mode may include a wind avoidance mode and a normal mode. The air supply mode may include a cooling mode, a dehumidification mode, a heating mode, etc. The position of the user may be determined by a radar installed on the air-conditioning equipment. The target angles of the left and right air guides corresponding to each working mode and the position of the user may be partially the same or completely different. A mapping relationship between each working mode, the position of the user and the target angles of the left and right air guides can be established in advance, so that the target angles of the left and right air guides of the air-conditioning equipment can be quickly determined based on the mapping relationship, the working mode of the air-conditioning equipment and the position of the user.
[0100] Furthermore, in one embodiment, step S153 includes: S1531 calculating a sum of the compensation parameter and the target angle, using the sum as a corrected target angle, and controlling the air conditioning device according to the corrected target angle.
[0101] In one embodiment, when the air conditioning device is in the wind avoidance mode, the method further includes:
[0102] S21: When the user is in the first position, determining that the target angle of the left and right air guides of the air conditioning device corresponds to the third position;
[0103] S23: When the user is in the second position, determining that the target angles of the left and right air guides of the air conditioning device correspond to the first position and the third position, wherein the first position, the second position, and the third position are arranged in sequence in the horizontal direction, and the second position is located between the first position and the third position;
[0104] S25: When the user is in the third position, determining that the target angle of the left and right air guides of the air conditioning device corresponds to the first position.
[0105] In this way, the wind parameter control strategy in the wind-avoiding-people mode is established in advance, thereby achieving the wind-avoiding-people effect.
[0106] Specifically, the user's position can include both horizontal position and near position. Figure 8 and Figure 9 The user's horizontal position may include the first position ①, the second position ②, and the third position ③, and the user's near and far position may include position A, position B, and position C. In this way, the air flow parameters of the air conditioning equipment are pre-set for the purpose of avoiding people from the horizontal direction and the near and far direction.
[0107] The first position ①, the second position ②, and the third position ③ can be set based on the effective range of the left-right air flow of the air conditioning device. For example, when the effective range of the left-right air flow of the air conditioning device is 120°, each area can be divided into 40° intervals to determine the first position ①, the second position ②, and the third position ③. Position A, Position B, and Position C can be set based on the effective range of the up-down air flow of the air conditioning device. For example, when the effective range of the up-down air flow of the air conditioning device is 60°, each area can be divided into 20° intervals to determine Position A, Position B, and Position C.
[0108] In the pre-set air outlet parameters of the air conditioning equipment, when the function mode is the wind avoidance mode and the air supply mode is the cooling mode, if the user's horizontal position is detected to be in the first position ①, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to correspond to the third position ③, and at the same time, the target angle of the up and down air guide is determined according to the user's distance position, that is, if the user's distance position is in position A, the target angle of the up and down air guide is determined to correspond to position C, if the user's distance position is in position C, the target angle of the up and down air guide is determined to correspond to position A, if the user's distance position is in position B, position AB, position BC, position AC or position ABC, the target angle of the up and down air guide is determined to be the upper limit of the cooling room, so as to avoid directly supplying air to the user's position as much as possible; if the user's horizontal position is detected to be in the second position ②, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to be a wide angle, and the target angle of the up and down air guide is set to the upper limit of the cooling room, so as to avoid directly supplying air to the user's position as much as possible. air is supplied at the position of the user; if the user's position is detected to be in the third position ③, the target angles of the left and right air guides are determined to correspond to the first position ①, and the target angles of the up and down air guides are determined according to the distance of the user; if the user's position is detected to be in the first position ① and the second position ②, the target angles of the left and right air guides are determined to correspond to the third position ③, and the target angles of the up and down air guides are set to the upper limit of the cooling room; if the user's position is detected to be in the second position ② and the third position ③, the target angles of the left and right air guides are determined to correspond to the first position ①, and the target angles of the up and down air guides are set to the upper limit of the cooling room; if the user's position is detected to be in the first position ① and the third position ③, the target angles of the left and right air guides are determined to be centered, and the target angles of the up and down air guides are set to the upper limit of the cooling room; if the user's position is detected to be in the first position ①, the second position ② and the third position ③, the target angles of the left and right air guides are determined to be centered, and the target angles of the up and down air guides are set to the upper limit of the cooling room.
[0109] In the pre-set air outlet parameters of the air conditioning equipment, when the functional mode is the wind avoidance mode and the air supply mode is the dehumidification mode, if the user's horizontal position is detected to be in the first position ①, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to correspond to the third position ③, and the target angle of the upper and lower air guide is determined according to the distance of the user, and can be uniformly set as the dehumidification upper limit, so as to avoid directly supplying air to the user's position as much as possible; if the user's horizontal position is detected to be in the second position ②, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to be a wide angle, and the target angle of the upper and lower air guide is set to the cooling room upper limit, so as to avoid directly supplying air to the user's position as much as possible; if the user's position is detected to be in the third position ③, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to correspond to the first position ①, and the target angle of the upper and lower air guide is determined according to the user's distance. The distance between the user and the home is determined, which can be uniformly set as the dehumidification upper limit; if the user's position is detected to be in the first position ① and the second position ②, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to correspond to the third position ③, and the target angle of the upper and lower air guide is set to the cooling room upper limit; if the user's position is detected to be in the second position ② and the third position ③, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to correspond to the first position ①, and the target angle of the upper and lower air guide is set to the cooling room upper limit; if the user's position is detected to be in the first position ① and the third position ③, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to be centered, and the target angle of the upper and lower air guide is set to the cooling room upper limit; if the user's position is detected to be in the first position ①, the second position ② and the third position ③, the target angle of the left and right air guide is determined to be centered, and the target angle of the upper and lower air guide is set to the cooling room upper limit.
[0110] In the pre-set air flow parameters for the air conditioning system, when the function mode is wind avoidance mode and the air supply mode is heating mode, if the user's horizontal position is detected to be in the first position (①), the target angles for the left and right airflow are set to correspond to the third position (③); if the user's horizontal position is detected to be in the second position (②), the target angles for the left and right airflow are set to wide angle; if the user's position is detected to be in the third position (③), the target angles for the left and right airflow are set to correspond to the first position (①); if the user's position is detected to be in the first and second positions (②), the target angles for the left and right airflow are set to correspond to the third position (③); if the user's position is detected to be in the second and third positions (③), the target angles for the left and right airflow are set to correspond to the first position (①); if the user's position is detected to be in the first and third positions (③), the target angles for the left and right airflow are set to center; if the user's position is detected to be in the first, second, and third positions (③), the target angles for the left and right airflow are set to center. In heating mode, the target angles of the upper and lower air deflectors are uniformly set to the lower limit for heating. The wind-free air deflector can also be opened to further achieve the effect of wind avoidance.
[0111] It should be pointed out that the air-conditioning equipment may include a left air guide plate and a right air guide plate, and the left air guide plate and the right air guide plate can operate independently. The above-mentioned "wide angle" can be understood as setting the target angle of the left and right air guide of the left air guide plate to correspond to the third position ③, and setting the target angle of the left and right air guide of the right air guide plate to correspond to the first position ①, so that the left air guide plate and the right air guide plate are in an "eight" shape and guide the air. The above-mentioned "centering" can be understood as setting the left air guide plate and the right air guide plate to be parallel and forward, so that the air-conditioning equipment supplies air to the area directly in front of itself. The above-mentioned "cooling room upper limit" can be understood as the upper limit position of the upper and lower air guide plates of the air-conditioning equipment in the cooling mode. The above-mentioned "dehumidification upper limit" can be understood as the upper limit position of the upper and lower air guide plates of the air-conditioning equipment in the dehumidification mode. In some embodiments, the upper and lower sweep angles corresponding to the cooling and dehumidification upper limits are the same. In some embodiments, to prevent water vapor from liquefying into droplets on the air guide plates during cooling mode and then flowing back into the air conditioning unit, the upper and lower sweep angles corresponding to the cooling and dehumidification upper limits are smaller than those corresponding to the dehumidification upper limits. For example, the cooling and dehumidification upper limits can be set at 20° above the horizontal, and the dehumidification upper limits can be set at 25° above the horizontal. The "lower heating limit" described above can be understood as the extreme downward rotation position of the upper and lower air guide plates of the air conditioning unit in heating mode, for example, 90° below the horizontal.
[0112] Furthermore, after determining the compensation parameter θ based on the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room, the above-preset air outlet parameters can be corrected and controlled. The corrected air outlet parameters are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

[0118] Please combine Figure 10 , Figure 10This is a scenario diagram of the air outlet control of the related technology and the air outlet control of the present method after the air conditioning device (air conditioner) is shifted. It can be seen from the figure that in the wind avoidance mode, when the user is in the first position ①, the target angle of the left and right air guides corresponds to the third position ③. After the air conditioning equipment is shifted to the right, when the user is still in the first position ①, the left and right air guide angles of the air conditioning equipment in the related technology remain unchanged, and there is a situation where the user is blown. The left and right air guide angles of the air conditioning equipment of the present application are corrected according to the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment, which can avoid blowing the user and realize the wind avoidance function.
[0119] Please combine Figure 11 , Figure 11 This is another scenario schematic diagram of the air outlet control of the related technology and the air outlet control of the present method after the air conditioning device (air conditioner) is shifted. It can be seen from the figure that in the wind avoidance mode, when the user is in the first position ①, the target angle of the left and right air guides corresponds to the third position ③. After the air conditioning equipment is shifted to the left, when the user is still in the first position ①, the left and right air guide angles of the air conditioning equipment in the related technology remain unchanged, and there is a situation where air is continuously supplied to the wall over a large area and cooling energy is wasted. The left and right air guide angles of the air conditioning equipment of the present application are corrected according to the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment, which can effectively reduce the situation of air supply toward the wall and ensure the wind avoidance function.
[0120] It should be noted that the principle of the corrective control of the air flow parameters of this method can be understood as follows: when the air conditioning device is installed on the left side, all the left and right air flow angles in the air flow parameters are offset to the right by the characteristic angle; when the air conditioning device is installed on the right side, all the left and right air flow angles in the air flow parameters are offset to the left by the characteristic angle. Therefore, when the angle value defined when the left and right air guides of the air conditioning device are facing left is smaller than the angle value defined when the left and right air guides are facing right, for example, when the angles when the left and right air guides are facing horizontally forward are preset to 0 degrees, the angles of the left and right air guides are rotated to the left as a negative value, and the angles of the left and right air guides are rotated to the right as a positive value, or when the limit angle of the left and right air guides is preset to 0 degrees and the angle of rotation of the left and right air guides gradually increases from left to right, the compensation parameters can be determined using the above steps S131, S132, and S133. When the angle value defined when the left and right air guide plates of the air-conditioning equipment are facing the left is greater than the angle value defined when the left and right air guide plates are facing the right, for example, when the angle of the left and right air guide plates when facing horizontally forward is pre-set to 0 degrees, the angle of the left and right air guide plates turning to the left is a positive value, and the angle of the left and right air guide plates turning to the right is a negative value, or when the limit angle of the left and right air guide plates turning to the right is pre-set to 0 degrees, and the angle of the left and right air guide plates turning from right to left gradually increases, if it is determined that the air-conditioning equipment is installed on the left, the negative value of the position characteristic angle can be determined as the compensation parameter; if it is determined that the air-conditioning equipment is installed in the middle, 0° can be determined as the compensation parameter; if it is determined that the air-conditioning equipment is installed on the right, the position characteristic angle can be directly determined as the compensation parameter.
[0121] In some embodiments, when the corrected left and right air guide angles exceed the rotation limits of the left and right air guide plates of the air conditioning device, air outlet control is performed according to the angles corresponding to the rotation limits of the left and right air guide plates.
[0122] It should be noted that the specific numerical values mentioned above are only used as examples to illustrate the implementation of the present invention in detail and should not be understood as limiting the present invention. In other examples, implementation methods, or embodiments, other numerical values can be selected according to the present invention and are not specifically limited here.
[0123] To implement the above embodiments, embodiments of the present invention further provide a computer-readable storage medium capable of implementing the air outlet control method for an air conditioning device according to any of the above embodiments. The computer-readable storage medium provided by the present invention stores an air outlet control program for an air conditioning device. When executed by a processor, the air outlet control program implements the air outlet control method for an air conditioning device according to any of the above embodiments.
[0124] According to the computer-readable storage medium of the present invention, it is possible to automatically detect the spatial position information of the air-conditioning equipment in the room, automatically adjust the air outlet parameters of the air-conditioning equipment according to the detected spatial position information, and control the operation of the air-conditioning equipment according to the adjusted air outlet parameters, thereby reducing the user's operating costs, providing the user with intelligent and accurate air supply services, and improving the user experience.
[0125] In one example, when the air outlet control program is executed by a processor, step S11 , step S13 , and step S15 of the above embodiment may be implemented.
[0126] In order to implement the above embodiments, an embodiment of the present invention further provides an air conditioning device, which can implement the air outlet control method based on the air conditioning device of any of the above embodiments. Figure 12 FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an air conditioning device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 12 As shown, the air conditioning device 100 proposed in the present invention includes a memory 102, a processor 104, and an air outlet control program 106 based on the air conditioning device 100 stored in the memory 102 and executable on the processor 104. When the processor 104 executes the air outlet control program 106 based on the air conditioning device 100, the air outlet control method based on the air conditioning device 100 of any of the above-mentioned embodiments is implemented.
[0127] According to the air conditioning equipment 100 of the present invention, it is possible to automatically detect the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment 100 in the room, automatically adjust the air outlet parameters of the air conditioning equipment 100 according to the detected spatial position information, and control the operation of the air conditioning equipment 100 according to the adjusted air outlet parameters, thereby reducing the user's operating costs, providing the user with intelligent and accurate air supply services, and improving the user experience.
[0128] It can be understood that in the relevant technology, ordinary air-conditioning equipment cannot self-detect its own installation position in the room, and its corresponding remote control does not have relevant function settings. When the air-conditioning equipment is installed near the left wall or the right wall, the air-conditioning equipment sweeps the air left and right according to the pre-set air outlet control strategy. There may be a situation where air is supplied to the left wall or the right wall for a long time, which easily causes waste of cooling capacity and reduces the overall energy saving of the air-conditioning equipment. The solution is to require the user to manually adjust and fix the air outlet angle of the left and right air guide plates. However, this not only increases the user's operating cost, but also when the air-conditioning equipment continues to supply air at a fixed angle, on the one hand, it cannot meet the user's demand for uniform air supply, and on the other hand, it is easy to cause harm to the user's health. High-end air-conditioning equipment cannot self-detect its own installation position in the room, and requires the installer to set the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment on its corresponding remote control. However, the relevant settings are relatively rough and can only set the rough installation position of the air-conditioning equipment. The accuracy of air outlet control is still poor, and when the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment changes, the installation position needs to be reset. Otherwise, the same defects as ordinary air-conditioning equipment will exist.
[0129] That is to say, in the related art, the air-conditioning equipment cannot automatically detect its own installation position indoors, and automatically adjust the air outlet parameters of the air-conditioning equipment according to its own installation position indoors. As a result, the air-conditioning equipment in the related art has problems such as low intelligence, low air outlet control accuracy, complex operation, and impact on user experience.
[0130] In the air-conditioning equipment of the present invention, the air-conditioning equipment can automatically determine its own installation position in the room, as well as the position characteristic angle corresponding to the installation position, and determine the compensation parameters based on the automatically determined installation position and the automatically determined position characteristic angle, and correct the air outlet parameters of the air-conditioning equipment according to the compensation parameters. Therefore, when performing air outlet control, the air-conditioning equipment can be automatically controlled according to the corrected air outlet parameters, thereby improving the intelligence level of the air-conditioning equipment. More precise air outlet control can be achieved without the user performing complicated operations, which is conducive to improving user experience.
[0131] Specifically, air conditioning equipment includes but is not limited to wall-mounted air conditioners. In some embodiments, the air conditioning equipment itself may include a radar or other position detection sensor, and by analyzing the acquired radar data or other position detection sensor data, the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room and the position of the indoor user can be automatically determined. In some embodiments, the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room can also be automatically generated by other household appliances. The air conditioning equipment can communicate with other household appliances and obtain its own spatial position information. Other household appliances include but are not limited to televisions, water dispensers, sweeping robots or other air conditioning equipment. In other embodiments, the spatial position information can also be actively input by the user to meet the control needs of different users, which is not limited here.
[0132] The correspondence between different position characteristic angles, different installation positions, and compensation parameters can be pre-calibrated and stored. This allows for the rapid and direct determination of the corresponding compensation parameters based on the correspondence after the installation position and position characteristic angle are determined. Alternatively, the correspondence can be calculated in real time after the installation position and position characteristic angle are determined without pre-calibrating the correspondence, thus saving storage space.
[0133] The air flow parameters of the air conditioning equipment include, but are not limited to, left-right air flow angles, up-down air flow angles, and air flow duration. The air flow parameters of the air conditioning equipment may be pre-set without considering different spatial location information. These parameters may be stored on the air conditioning equipment or in the cloud. When the air flow parameters are stored in the cloud, the air conditioning equipment may communicate with the cloud to obtain the air flow parameters.
[0134] In certain embodiments, the air output parameters of an air conditioning device may be related to the operating mode of the air conditioning device and the user's location. Operating modes may include functional modes and air supply modes. Functional modes may include wind-away mode and normal mode. Air supply modes may include cooling mode, dehumidification mode, heating mode, etc. The air output parameters corresponding to each operating mode and user's location may be partially the same or completely different.
[0135] In one example, when the air outlet control program 106 is executed by the processor 104 , step S11 , step S13 , and step S15 of the above embodiment may be implemented.
[0136] In order to implement the above embodiments, the embodiments of the present invention further provide an air outlet control device, which can implement the air outlet control method based on air conditioning equipment of any of the above embodiments. Figure 13 FIG. 1 is a structural block diagram of an air outlet control device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 13As shown, the air flow control device 200 for air conditioning equipment proposed in the present invention includes a first determination module 202, a second determination module 204, and a control module 206. The first determination module 202 is used to determine the spatial location information of the air conditioning equipment in the room, where the spatial location information includes the installation location of the air conditioning equipment and the corresponding location characteristic angle. The second determination module 204 is used to determine a compensation parameter based on the location characteristic angle and the installation location. The control module 206 is used to correct and control the air flow parameters of the air conditioning equipment based on the compensation parameter.
[0137] According to the air outlet control device 200 based on the air conditioning equipment of the present invention, it is possible to automatically detect the spatial position information of the air conditioning equipment in the room, automatically adjust the air outlet parameters of the air conditioning equipment according to the detected spatial position information, and control the operation of the air conditioning equipment according to the adjusted air outlet parameters, thereby reducing the user's operating costs, providing the user with intelligent and accurate air supply services, and improving the user experience.
[0138] In one embodiment, the first determination module 202 includes a first determination unit, a calculation unit, and a second determination unit. The first determination unit is used to implement the above step S111. The calculation unit is used to implement the above step S113. The second determination unit is used to implement the above step S115.
[0139] In this way, the characteristic position angle and installation position of the air conditioning equipment when installed indoors can be automatically determined. It is understandable that because the installation position of the air conditioning equipment has a greater impact on horizontal airflow, i.e., left-right airflow, and a smaller impact on vertical airflow, i.e., up-and-down airflow, the characteristic position angle of the air conditioning equipment is determined based on two wall corners on the same horizontal plane as the air conditioning equipment, rather than two wall corners on the same vertical plane as the air conditioning equipment. The compensation parameters determined based on the characteristic position angle can better correct the airflow parameters of the air conditioning equipment.
[0140] In one embodiment, the third target corner, the first target corner, and the air conditioning equipment are located on the same wall surface, and the first target corner and the third target corner are located on either side of the air conditioning equipment. The second determining unit includes a seventh determining subunit, an eighth determining subunit, and a ninth determining subunit. The seventh determining subunit is used to implement step S1157 above. The eighth determining subunit is used to implement step S1158 above. The ninth determining subunit is used to implement step S1159 above.
[0141] In one embodiment, the first target wall corner is located on the right side of the air conditioning equipment, and the third target wall corner is located on the left side of the air conditioning equipment. The second determination module includes a seventh determination unit, an eighth determination unit, and a ninth determination unit. The seventh determination unit is used to implement step S134 above. The eighth determination unit is used to implement step S135 above. The ninth determination unit is used to implement step S136 above.
[0142] In one embodiment, the first target wall corner is located on the left side of the air conditioning equipment, and the third target wall corner is located on the right side of the air conditioning equipment. The second determination module includes a tenth determination unit, an eleventh determination unit, and a twelfth determination unit. The tenth determination unit is used to implement the above-mentioned step S137. The eleventh determination unit is used to implement the above-mentioned step S138. The twelfth determination unit is used to implement the above-mentioned step S139.
[0143] In one embodiment, the second determining unit includes a first determining subunit, a second determining subunit, and a third determining subunit. The first determining subunit is used to implement the above step S1151. The second determining subunit is used to implement the above step S1152. The third determining subunit is used to implement the above step S1153.
[0144] In this way, it is possible to automatically determine whether the installation position of the air conditioning equipment is located at the left position, the middle position, or the right position according to the position characteristic angle.
[0145] In one embodiment, the second determining unit further includes a fourth determining subunit, a fifth determining subunit, and a sixth determining subunit. The fourth determining subunit is used to implement the above step S1154. The fifth determining subunit is used to implement the above step S1155. The sixth determining subunit is used to implement the above step S1156.
[0146] In this way, it is possible to automatically determine whether the installation position of the air-conditioning equipment is the left position, the middle position or the right position according to the position characteristic angle.
[0147] In one embodiment, the second determining module 204 includes a third determining unit, a fourth determining unit, and a fifth determining unit. The third determining unit is used to implement the above step S131. The fourth determining unit is used to implement the above step S132. The fifth determining unit is used to implement the above step S133.
[0148] In this way, selecting the most appropriate compensation parameter based on the installation location of the air conditioning device facilitates corrective control for different installation locations. It is understood that, typically, the air conditioning device's outlet parameters are pre-set based on the situation where the air conditioning device is installed in a neutral position. Therefore, when the air conditioning device's installation location is automatically determined to be in a neutral position, no correction is made to the pre-set outlet parameters, i.e., the compensation parameter is determined to be 0°, thereby directly controlling the operation of the air conditioning device using the pre-set outlet parameters.
[0149] In one embodiment, the control module 206 includes a sixth determining unit and a control unit. The sixth determining unit is used to implement the above step S151. The control unit is used to implement the above step S153.
