[0017] Therefore, the solution of the present invention is to set an electric heating element (such as a first electric heating plate 21 and a second electric heating plate 22) on the inner wall of the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner, and the position range of the air guide plate of the air conditioner includes a first position, a second position, a third position, a fourth position and a fifth position; the first position is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the smallest, and the fifth position is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the largest.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments of the present invention and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] In related solutions, in order to control the condensation of the air conditioner, the condensation effect is optimized by pasting a sponge insulation layer around the air outlet of the air conditioner and reducing the compressor frequency. However, the method of pasting the sponge insulation layer around the air outlet of the air conditioner has the problem of the sponge insulation layer falling off, which affects the user experience. At the same time, reducing the compressor frequency will result in the inability to quickly reduce the indoor ambient temperature in the initial stage of the air conditioner operation, causing the indoor temperature to drop slowly and affecting the user experience. Therefore, the solution of the present invention proposes an anti-condensation control method for an air conditioner, specifically an anti-condensation control method for a vertical air conditioner. By adjusting the current position of the air guide plate at the air outlet of the air conditioner and the action of the electric heating element (such as a heating wire) on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner in an environment with high indoor humidity, while ensuring the user's comfort experience, the problem of condensation easily occurring on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner is solved to improve the user experience.
[0035] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an anti-condensation control method for an air conditioner is provided. Figure 1The flow chart of an embodiment of the method of the present invention is shown. The indoor unit of the air conditioner has an air guide plate 3 and an air outlet 4. Electric heating elements, such as a first electric heating plate 21 and a second electric heating plate 22, are provided on the inner wall of the decorative panel surrounding the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner. The position range of the air guide plate 3 includes: from the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the smallest to the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the largest, the first position 31, the second position 32, the third position 33, the fourth position 34 and the fifth position 35 are distributed in sequence; that is, in the direction facing the air guide plate 3, from the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the leftmost angle to the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the rightmost angle, the first position 31, the second position 32, the third position 33, the fourth position 34 and the fifth position 35 are distributed in sequence; the first position is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the smallest, and the fifth position is the position 35 where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the largest; the first position 31 is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the smallest, and the fifth position 35 is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the largest.
[0036] Specifically, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the main structure of an embodiment of an indoor unit of an air conditioner, that is, a schematic diagram of the front structure. Figure 8 FIG. 1 is a rear structural diagram of an embodiment of an indoor unit of an air conditioner, i.e., a rear structural diagram. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the front of the air conditioner's indoor unit is equipped with an infrared sensor 1, a first electric heating plate 21, a second electric heating plate 22, an air guide plate 3, and an air outlet 4. A temperature and humidity sensor 5 is provided on the back of the air conditioner's indoor unit. The air guide plate 3 is located in the air outlet 4. The first and second electric heating plates 21, 22 are located near the air outlet 4 and on the inner wall of the decorative panel surrounding the air outlet 4. In the embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner's indoor unit comprises an indoor heat exchanger, a fan, a temperature and humidity sensor 5, an infrared sensor 1, an air guide plate 3, and electric heating plates (such as the first and second electric heating plates 21, 22) arranged on the decorative panel. The fan draws conditioned air from the air inlet, passes through the indoor heat exchanger, and blows cold air out of the air outlet 4. The temperature and humidity sensor 5 is used to detect the current indoor ambient temperature and humidity, the infrared sensor 1 is used to obtain the user's location, and the air guide plate 3 is used to adjust the air outlet angle of the air conditioner.
[0037] Figure 9The schematic diagram of the top view of an embodiment of the indoor unit of an air conditioner, wherein (a) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure showing the air outlet and the air guide plate, (b) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the first position, (c) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the second position, (d) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the third position, (e) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the fourth position, and (f) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the fifth position. Figure 9 As shown, the air deflector 3 can be positioned in five positions, namely, a first position 31, a second position 32, a third position 33, a fourth position 34, and a fifth position 35. The second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34 are provided between the first position 31 and the fifth position 35 to meet the different needs of users. When the air deflector 3 is in the third position 33, the air flow is smoothest and the air volume is maximum, but it is easy to blow on people; the second position 32 and the fourth position 34 can adjust the air flow direction, so that the air-conditioned air is deflected to the left or right, preventing the air-conditioned air from blowing on the user; the first position 31 and the fifth position 35 are more deflected, allowing users to choose the position of the air deflector 3 that they need. For example: taking the state of the air guide plate 3 of the indoor unit of the air conditioner when it is closed as the starting position (that is, the horizontal position as the starting position), the first position 31 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the horizontal position is the first set angle such as 30°, the second position 32 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the horizontal position is the second set angle such as 60°, the third position 33 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the horizontal position is the third set angle such as 90°, the fourth position 34 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the horizontal position is the fourth set angle such as 120°, and the fifth position 35 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the horizontal position is the fifth set angle such as 150°.
[0038] When air from the air conditioner's air outlet 4 passes through the air guide plate 3, the air is directed in the air outlet 4 by the air guide plate 3. The user can choose whether to have the air from the air conditioner's air outlet 4 blow directly at the user by adjusting the current position of the air guide plate 3. The air outlet 4's airflow differs depending on the current position of the air guide plate 3, as the air flows in different directions after passing through the air guide plate 3.
[0039] According to the placement direction of the indoor unit of the air conditioner, when the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is located at the first position 31, the blowing direction of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner will be more inclined to the left side of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. Since the air outlet angle is small, the blowing direction of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner will easily blow to the decorative panels around the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner. When the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is lower than the current indoor dew point temperature, condensation water will easily form on the decorative panels. When the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is located at the fifth position 35, the blowing direction of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner will be more inclined to the right side of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. The air outlet angle is also small, and it will also blow to the decorative panels on the right side of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. When the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is located at any of the second position 32, the third position 33 and the fourth position 34, the air outlet angle is large, and the blowing direction of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner will not easily blow to the decorative panels around the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner. Therefore, condensation water will not easily form on the decorative panels. Figure 1 As shown, the anti-condensation control method for the air conditioner includes: steps S110 to S140.
[0040] In step S110, when the air conditioner is operating in cooling mode, the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, the current indoor temperature and humidity of the room where the air conditioner is located, and the current position of the air guide plate 3 are obtained. The current location of the user of the room where the air conditioner is located is also obtained and recorded as the current location of the user of the air conditioner.
[0041] In step S120, the current indoor dew point temperature of the room where the air conditioner is located is determined based on the current indoor temperature and current indoor humidity of the room where the air conditioner is located, which is recorded as the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner. It is also determined whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner.
[0042] At step S130, if it is determined that the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is lower than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, then within the position range of the air guide plate 3, the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the current position of the user of the air conditioner are combined to control the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element to achieve anti-condensation control of the decorative panel around the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner. Figures 7 to 9 In the example shown, during cooling operation, the air conditioner uses temperature and humidity sensor 5 to obtain the current air outlet temperature and the indoor ambient temperature and humidity. The indoor dew point temperature is then determined based on these values. When the air conditioner's current air outlet temperature is lower than the indoor dew point temperature, the current position of air deflector 3 is detected, and the user's location is detected using infrared sensor 1. The air outlet angle of air deflector 3 is adjusted based on the user's location, preventing condensation on the decorative panels surrounding the air outlet 4.
[0043] In some embodiments, in step S130, within the position range of the air guide plate 3, the specific process of controlling the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element is combined with the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the current position of the user of the air conditioner. Please refer to the following exemplary description.
[0044] The following combination Figure 2 The method of the present invention is shown as a flow chart of an embodiment of controlling the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element within the position range of the air guide plate 3, in combination with the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the current position of the user of the air conditioner, further illustrating the specific process of controlling the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element within the position range of the air guide plate 3, in combination with the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the current position of the user of the air conditioner in step S130, including: steps S210 to S230.
[0045] Step S210 , determining whether the current position of the air guide plate 3 is the first position 31 or the fifth position 35 .
[0046] Step S220: If it is determined that the current position of the air guide plate 3 is neither the first position 31 nor the fifth position 35, the air conditioner is controlled to maintain the current state of operation.
[0047] Step S230: If it is determined that the current position of the air guide plate 3 is the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element are controlled according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner.
[0048] Specifically, Figure 10 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an embodiment of an anti-condensation control method for an air conditioner. Figure 10 As shown, the anti-condensation control method of the air conditioner includes:
[0049] Step 11: During the cooling operation of the air conditioner, when it is detected that the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is lower than the current indoor dew point temperature, the current position of the air guide plate 3 is detected, and the current user position is obtained, and then the control of step 12 and subsequent steps is executed.
[0050] Step 12: Determine whether the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is the first position 31 or the fifth position 35. If so, proceed to step 13; otherwise, the air conditioner is controlled to maintain its current operating state. Specifically, if the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is detected to be at an angle other than the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, it indicates that the air flowing out of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner will not blow into the decorative panels surrounding the air outlet 4 in this state, and the air conditioner maintains its current operating state.
[0051] Step 13. When it is detected that the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is at the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, the current user position is obtained, and step 14 is executed to control the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner.
[0052] In some embodiments, the specific process of controlling the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner in step S230 is described in the following exemplary embodiment.
[0053] The following combination Figure 3 The flowchart of an embodiment of the method of the present invention for controlling the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner is shown, further illustrating the specific process of controlling the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner in step S230, including: steps S310 to S330.
[0054] Step S310, determining whether the current position of the user of the air conditioner is within the position range that the air outlet of the air conditioner can blow when the current position of the air guide plate 3 is any one of the second position 32, the third position 33 and the fourth position 34.
[0055] Step S320: If not, the current position of the air deflector 3 is controlled to switch from the first position 31 or the fifth position 35 to any one of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34. The air conditioner is then controlled to continue operating until the current position of the air deflector 3 is no longer any one of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34. The current position of the air deflector 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element are then controlled again based on the current position of the user of the air conditioner. Specifically, based on the current position of the user of the air conditioner, it is first determined whether the position of the air deflector 3 can be switched to any one of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34. If the position of the air deflector 3 can be switched to any one of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34, the air will not blow to the user of the air conditioner. If it is determined that the air will not blow to the user of the air conditioner, the position of the air deflector 3 is switched.
[0056] Step S330, if yes, maintain the current position of the air guide plate 3, and control the electric heating element to turn on. After that, when the electric heating element is turned on, after the electric heating element runs for the set time, combined with the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner and the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner, the operating frequency of the air conditioner compressor and the opening and closing of the electric heating element are controlled to continue to achieve anti-condensation control of the decorative panel around the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner.
[0057] Specifically, if Figure 10 As shown, the anti-condensation control method for the air conditioner further includes:
[0058] Step 14: Determine whether the user's location is within the range of any of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34 of the air deflector 3: If so, execute step 15; otherwise, execute step 16.
[0059] Step 15. When the user is in the range of any of the second position 32, third position 33 and fourth position 34 of the air guide plate 3, the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is maintained at the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, and the first electric heating plate 21 and the second electric heating plate 22 in the decorative panels on the left and right sides of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner are turned on to make the surface temperature of the decorative panels higher than the current indoor dew point temperature to avoid condensation.
[0060] Step 16. When the user's position is not within the range of any of the second position 32, the third position 33 and the fourth position 34 of the air guide plate 3, the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is adjusted to any of the second position 32, the third position 33 and the fourth position 34. This can prevent condensation from forming on the surface of the decorative panel while preventing cold air from blowing towards the user.
[0061] At step S140, when the electric heating element is turned on, after the electric heating element runs for a set time, the operating frequency of the air conditioner's compressor and the opening and closing of the electric heating element are controlled in combination with the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner and the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner to continue to achieve anti-condensation control of the decorative panel around the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner.
[0062] The solution of the present invention proposes an anti-condensation control method for an air conditioner. During the cooling operation of the air conditioner, when it is detected that the current outlet air temperature of the air conditioner is lower than the current indoor dew point temperature, the current position of the air guide plate of the air conditioner is obtained, and the user's location is obtained through an infrared sensing device. The position of the air guide plate is adjusted according to the user's location, and the operation of the electric heating element (such as a heating wire) on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner is controlled to ensure that the cold air from the air conditioner does not blow directly on the user while solving the problem of condensation on the decorative panel. In this way, in an environment with high indoor humidity, by adjusting the current position of the air guide plate at the air outlet of the air conditioner and the operation of the electric heating element (such as a heating wire) on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner, the problem of condensation on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner can be solved while ensuring the user's comfort experience, thereby improving the user experience. Thus, the problem that in an indoor high humidity environment, the low outlet air temperature during the cooling operation of the air conditioner causes condensation on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner, thereby affecting the user experience, is solved.
[0063] In the related scheme, the electric heating module is controlled to be turned on when the indoor environmental humidity meets the requirements; while in the scheme of the present invention, the position requirement of the air guide plate 3 is added. Only when the position of the air guide plate 3 is in the first position 31 or the fifth position 35 and the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is detected to be less than the dew point temperature, the first electric heating plate 21 and the second electric heating plate 22 will be turned on. Therefore, the control of the first electric heating plate 21 and the second electric heating plate 22 in the scheme of the present invention is more accurate, which can avoid the first electric heating plate 21 and the second electric heating plate 22 being turned on when they do not need to be turned on, causing energy waste and affecting the user's comfort experience. In the scheme of the present invention, the user's feelings are also taken into consideration. Before adjusting the position of the air guide plate 3, it is first confirmed whether the air conditioning wind will blow towards the user after adjusting the position of the air guide plate 3 to avoid causing discomfort to the user. It is more humane and provides a better user comfort experience.
[0064] In some embodiments, the specific process of controlling the operating frequency of the air conditioner's compressor and the on / off of the electric heating element in step S130 in combination with the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner and the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner is described in the following exemplary embodiment.
[0065] The following combination Figure 4 The method of the present invention is shown as a flow chart of an embodiment of controlling the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner and the opening and closing of the electric heating element in combination with the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner and the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner, further illustrating the specific process of controlling the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner and the opening and closing of the electric heating element in combination with the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner and the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner in step S140, including: steps S410 to S430.
[0066] Step S410: Determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner.
[0067] Step S420: If it is determined that the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, the electric heating element is controlled to be turned off, and then the air conditioner is controlled to continue running until the current position of the air guide plate 3 is not any of the second position 32, the third position 33 and the fourth position 34, and the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element are controlled again according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner.
[0068] Step S430: If it is determined that the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, the electric heating element is controlled to continue operating, and the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner is controlled according to the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner.
[0069] Specifically, Figure 11 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of another embodiment of an air conditioning anti-condensation control method. Figure 11 As shown, the anti-condensation control method for the air conditioner further includes:
[0070] Step 21. Since the air conditioner has a dehumidifying effect when running in cooling mode, the indoor humidity will decrease after running for a period of time. Therefore, after the air conditioner runs for time t1 (recommended value 1h) according to step 15, the current indoor ambient temperature and humidity of the air conditioner are detected, and the current dew point temperature of the air conditioner is calculated based on the current indoor ambient temperature and humidity of the air conditioner, and then step 22 is executed.
[0071] Step 22: Determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner: if so, execute step 23 to turn off the electric heating element; otherwise, execute step 24 to control the operating frequency of the compressor.
[0072] Step 23: When the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, the first electric heating plate 21 and the second electric heating plate 22 of the air conditioner are both turned off.
[0073] In some embodiments, the specific process of controlling the electric heating element to continue operating in step S430 and controlling the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner according to the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner is described in the following exemplary embodiments.
[0074] The following combination Figure 5 The flowchart of an embodiment of the method of the present invention for controlling the electric heating element to continue operating and controlling the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner according to the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner further illustrates the specific process of controlling the electric heating element to continue operating and controlling the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner according to the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner in step S430, including: steps S510 to S530.
[0075] Step S510: While controlling the electric heating element to continue operating, determining the difference between the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the indoor set temperature of the air conditioner, which is recorded as the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner, and determining whether the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner is less than a preset temperature.
[0076] Step S520: If it is determined that the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner is less than the preset temperature, the operating frequency of the compressor is controlled to be reduced while the electric heating element is controlled to continue to operate, and then the process returns to re-determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner.
[0077] Step S530: If it is determined that the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, the electric heating element is controlled to continue to operate, and the air conditioner is controlled to continue to operate, and then returns to re-determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner.
[0078] Specifically, if Figure 11 As shown, the anti-condensation control method for the air conditioner further includes:
[0079] Step 24: When the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, obtain the difference Δt between the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the set temperature of the air conditioner, and then execute step 25.
[0080] Step 25: When the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, obtain the difference △t between the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the set temperature of the air conditioner, and determine whether the difference △t is less than the preset temperature t 预设值 (Recommended value 3°C): If yes, go to step 26; otherwise, go to step 27.
[0081] Step 26: When the difference △t is less than the preset temperature t 预设值 (recommended value 3℃), reduce the compressor operating frequency to increase the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, and then return to step 22 to perform cyclic control until the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current dew point temperature of the air conditioner, stop reducing the compressor operating frequency, and then continue to return to step 22 to continue cyclic control.
[0082] Step 27: When the difference △t is greater than or equal to the preset temperature t 预设值 (recommended value 3°C), the air conditioner is controlled to maintain the current state of operation, and then returns to step 22 to perform loop control.
[0083] The technical solution of this embodiment is adopted, by setting an electric heating element (such as a first electric heating plate 21 and a second electric heating plate 22) on the inner wall of the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner, and the position range of the air guide plate of the air conditioner includes a first position, a second position, a third position, a fourth position and a fifth position; the first position is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the smallest, and the fifth position is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the largest. When the air conditioner is in cooling operation, if the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, then when the current position of the air guide plate of the air conditioner is neither in the first position nor in the fifth position, the air conditioner is controlled to maintain the current state of operation. When the current position of the air guide plate of the air conditioner is in the first position or the fifth position, the user's location is obtained. If the user's location is within the range of any of the second position, the third position and the fourth position of the air guide plate, the current position of the air guide plate is maintained unchanged, and the electric heating element is controlled to turn on and heat. If the user's location is not within the range of any of the second, third, and fourth positions of the air deflector, the current position of the air deflector is adjusted to any of the second, third, and fourth positions of the air deflector. Furthermore, after the electric heating element has been operating for a period of time, it is determined whether the current outlet air temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current dew point temperature of the air conditioner. If so, the electric heating element is turned off. Otherwise, the difference between the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the set temperature of the air conditioner is determined. When the difference is less than the preset temperature, the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced. When the difference is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, the current operating state is maintained (i.e., the compressor frequency remains at the current frequency and the electric heating element continues to operate). The system then returns to re-determine whether the current outlet air temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current dew point temperature of the air conditioner, until the current outlet air temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current dew point temperature of the air conditioner. Therefore, by adjusting the current position of the air guide plate at the air outlet of the air conditioner and the action of the electric heating element (such as a heating wire) on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner when the air conditioner is in cooling operation, it is possible to prevent excessive condensation generated on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner from dripping onto the ground, thereby ensuring the user's human comfort experience and usage experience.
[0084] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an air conditioner anti-condensation control device corresponding to the air conditioner anti-condensation control method is also provided. Figure 6The structure diagram of an embodiment of the device of the present invention is shown. The indoor unit of the air conditioner has an air guide plate 3 and an air outlet 4. An electric heating element, such as a first electric heating plate 21 and a second electric heating plate 22, is provided on the inner wall of the decorative panel around the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner. The position range of the air guide plate 3 includes: from the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the smallest to the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the largest, the first position is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the smallest, and the fifth position is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the largest; the first position 31 is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is the smallest, and the fifth position 35 is the position where the air outlet angle of the air guide plate is the largest. Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the main structure of an embodiment of an indoor unit of an air conditioner, that is, a schematic diagram of the front structure. Figure 8 FIG. 1 is a rear structural diagram of an embodiment of an indoor unit of an air conditioner, i.e., a rear structural diagram. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the front of the air conditioner's indoor unit is equipped with an infrared sensor 1, a first electric heating plate 21, a second electric heating plate 22, an air guide plate 3, and an air outlet 4. A temperature and humidity sensor 5 is provided on the back of the air conditioner's indoor unit. The air guide plate 3 is located in the air outlet 4. The first and second electric heating plates 21, 22 are located near the air outlet 4 and on the inner wall of the decorative panel surrounding the air outlet 4. In the embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner's indoor unit comprises an indoor heat exchanger, a fan, a temperature and humidity sensor 5, an infrared sensor 1, an air guide plate 3, and electric heating plates (such as the first and second electric heating plates 21, 22) arranged on the decorative panel. The fan draws conditioned air from the air inlet, passes through the indoor heat exchanger, and blows cold air out of the air outlet 4. The temperature and humidity sensor 5 is used to detect the current indoor ambient temperature and humidity, the infrared sensor 1 is used to obtain the user's location, and the air guide plate 3 is used to adjust the air outlet angle of the air conditioner.
[0085] Figure 9 The schematic diagram of the top view of an embodiment of the indoor unit of an air conditioner, wherein (a) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure showing the air outlet and the air guide plate, (b) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the first position, (c) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the second position, (d) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the third position, (e) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the fourth position, and (f) is a schematic diagram of the top view of the structure when the air guide plate is currently in the fifth position. Figure 9As shown, the position of the air deflector 3 can be in five positions, such as a first position 31, a second position 32, a third position 33, a fourth position 34, and a fifth position 35. For example, taking the state of the air deflector 3 of the indoor unit of the air conditioner when it is closed as the starting position (i.e., the horizontal position as the starting position), the first position 31 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air deflector 3 and the horizontal position is a first set angle, such as 30°, the second position 32 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air deflector 3 and the horizontal position is a second set angle, such as 60°, the third position 33 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air deflector 3 and the horizontal position is a third set angle, such as 90°, the fourth position 34 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air deflector 3 and the horizontal position is a fourth set angle, such as 120°, and the fifth position 35 indicates that the angle between the current position of the air deflector 3 and the horizontal position is a fifth set angle, such as 150°.
[0086] When air from the air conditioner's air outlet 4 passes through the air guide plate 3, the air is directed in the air outlet 4 by the air guide plate 3. The user can choose whether to have the air from the air conditioner's air outlet 4 blow directly at the user by adjusting the current position of the air guide plate 3. The air outlet 4's airflow differs depending on the current position of the air guide plate 3, as the air flows in different directions after passing through the air guide plate 3.
[0087] Depending on the placement of the air conditioner's indoor unit, when the air guide plate 3 is in the first position 31, the air from the air outlet 4 is directed more toward the left side of the air conditioner's indoor unit. Due to the narrow air outlet angle, the air from the air outlet 4 is more likely to hit the decorative panels surrounding the air conditioner's air outlet 4. When the current air outlet temperature is lower than the current indoor dew point, condensation is likely to form on the decorative panels. When the air guide plate 3 is in the fifth position 35, the air from the air outlet 4 is directed more toward the right side of the air conditioner's indoor unit, with a narrow air outlet angle. This also likely hits the decorative panels on the right side of the air conditioner's indoor unit. When the air guide plate 3 is in any of the second, third, and fourth positions 32, 33, and 34, the air outlet angle is wider, making it less likely for the air from the air outlet 4 to hit the decorative panels surrounding the air conditioner's air outlet 4. Consequently, condensation is less likely to form on the decorative panels. The anti-condensation control device for an air conditioner includes: an acquisition unit 102 and a control unit 104 .
[0088] The acquisition unit 102 is configured to, when the air conditioner is operating in cooling mode, acquire the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, the current indoor temperature and humidity of the room where the air conditioner is located, and the current position of the air guide plate 3. Furthermore, the current location of the user of the room where the air conditioner is located is acquired, which is recorded as the current location of the user of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the acquisition unit 102 are described in step S110.
[0089] The control unit 104 is configured to determine the current indoor dew point temperature of the room where the air conditioner is located based on the current indoor temperature and current indoor humidity of the room where the air conditioner is located, recorded as the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner. The control unit 104 is also configured to determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are described in step S120.
[0090] The control unit 104 is further configured to, if it is determined that the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, control the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element within the position range of the air guide plate 3, in combination with the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the current position of the user of the air conditioner, so as to achieve anti-condensation control of the decorative panel around the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner. For the specific functions and processing of the control unit 104, please refer to step S130. Figures 7 to 9 In the example shown, during cooling operation, the air conditioner uses temperature and humidity sensor 5 to obtain the current air outlet temperature and the indoor ambient temperature and humidity. The indoor dew point temperature is then determined based on these values. When the air conditioner's current air outlet temperature is lower than the indoor dew point temperature, the current position of air deflector 3 is detected, and the user's location is detected using infrared sensor 1. The air outlet angle of air deflector 3 is adjusted based on the user's location, preventing condensation on the decorative panels surrounding the air outlet 4.
[0091] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 controls the current position of the air deflector 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element within the position range of the air deflector 3 in combination with the current position of the air deflector 3 and the current position of the user of the air conditioner, including:
[0092] The control unit 104 is further configured to determine whether the current position of the air guide plate 3 is the first position 31 or the fifth position 35. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are also described in step S210.
[0093] The control unit 104 is further configured to control the air conditioner to maintain the current state if it determines that the current position of the air guide plate 3 is neither the first position 31 nor the fifth position 35. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are also shown in step S220.
[0094] The control unit 104 is further configured to, if it is determined that the current position of the air deflector 3 is the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, control the current position of the air deflector 3 and the activation and deactivation of the electric heating element based on the current location of the user of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S230.
[0095] Specifically, Figure 10 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an embodiment of an anti-condensation control device for an air conditioner. Figure 10 As shown, the anti-condensation control device of the air conditioner includes:
[0096] Step 11: During the cooling operation of the air conditioner, when it is detected that the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is lower than the current indoor dew point temperature, the current position of the air guide plate 3 is detected, and the current user position is obtained, and then the control of step 12 and subsequent steps is executed.
[0097] Step 12: Determine whether the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is the first position 31 or the fifth position 35. If so, proceed to step 13; otherwise, the air conditioner is controlled to maintain its current operating state. Specifically, if the air outlet angle of the air guide plate 3 is detected to be at an angle other than the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, it indicates that the air flowing out of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner will not blow into the decorative panels surrounding the air outlet 4 in this state, and the air conditioner maintains its current operating state.
[0098] Step 13. When it is detected that the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is at the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, the current user position is obtained, and step 14 is executed to control the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner.
[0099] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 controls the current position of the air guide plate 3 and the opening and closing of the electric heating element according to the current position of the user of the air conditioner, including:
[0100] The control unit 104 is further configured to determine whether the current location of the user of the air conditioner is within a range where the air outlet of the air conditioner can reach when the current position of the air guide plate 3 is any of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S310.
[0101] The control unit 104 is further configured to, if not, control the current position of the air deflector 3 to switch from the first position 31 or the fifth position 35 to any one of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34, and then control the air conditioner to continue operating until the current position of the air deflector 3 is no longer any one of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34, and then re-control the current position of the air deflector 3 and the on / off of the electric heating element based on the current position of the air conditioner user. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S320.
[0102] The control unit 104 is further configured to, if so, maintain the current position of the air deflector 3 and control the electric heating element to be turned on. Thereafter, when the electric heating element is turned on and has operated for a set time, the control unit 104 controls the operating frequency of the air conditioner's compressor and the on / off of the electric heating element based on the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner and the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner, thereby continuing to implement anti-condensation control on the decorative panel surrounding the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S330.
[0103] Specifically, if Figure 10 As shown, the anti-condensation control device of the air conditioner also includes:
[0104] Step 14: Determine whether the user's location is within the range of any of the second position 32, the third position 33, and the fourth position 34 of the air deflector 3: If so, execute step 15; otherwise, execute step 16.
[0105] Step 15. When the user is in the range of any of the second position 32, third position 33 and fourth position 34 of the air guide plate 3, the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is maintained at the first position 31 or the fifth position 35, and the first electric heating plate 21 and the second electric heating plate 22 in the decorative panels on the left and right sides of the air outlet 4 of the air conditioner are turned on to make the surface temperature of the decorative panels higher than the current indoor dew point temperature to avoid condensation.
[0106] Step 16. When the user's position is not within the range of any of the second position 32, the third position 33 and the fourth position 34 of the air guide plate 3, the current position of the air guide plate 3 of the air conditioner is adjusted to any of the second position 32, the third position 33 and the fourth position 34.

The position of the air guide plate is adjusted according to the user's location, and the operation of the electric heating element (such as a heating wire) on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner is controlled to ensure that the cold air from the air conditioner does not blow directly on the user while solving the problem of condensation on the decorative panel. In this way, in an environment with high indoor humidity, by adjusting the current position of the air guide plate at the air outlet of the air conditioner and the operation of the electric heating element (such as a heating wire) on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner, the user's comfort experience can be ensured while solving the problem of condensation on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner, thereby improving the user experience. Thus, the problem that in an indoor high humidity environment, the low outlet air temperature during the cooling operation of the air conditioner causes condensation on the decorative panel around the air outlet of the air conditioner, thereby affecting the user experience, is solved.

Thereafter, the control unit 104 is configured to re-control the current position of the air deflector 3 and the on / off of the electric heating element based on the current position of the user of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S420.

[0115] Step 22: Determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner: if so, execute step 23 to turn off the electric heating element; otherwise, execute step 24 to control the operating frequency of the compressor.
[0116] Step 23: When the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, the first electric heating plate 21 and the second electric heating plate 22 of the air conditioner are both turned off.

[0118] The control unit 104 is further configured to, while controlling the electric heating element to continue operating, determine the difference between the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the indoor set temperature of the air conditioner, recording it as the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner. Furthermore, the control unit 104 is configured to determine whether the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner is less than a preset temperature. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S510.
[0119] The control unit 104 is further configured to, if it determines that the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner is less than the preset temperature, control the operating frequency of the compressor to decrease while continuing to operate the electric heating element, and then return to re-determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S520.
[0120] The control unit 104 is further configured to, if it is determined that the indoor ambient temperature difference of the air conditioner is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, control the electric heating element to continue operating, and control the air conditioner to continue operating, and then return to re-determine whether the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 are further described in step S530.
[0121] Specifically, if Figure 11 As shown, the anti-condensation control device of the air conditioner also includes:
[0122] Step 24: When the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, obtain the difference Δt between the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the set temperature of the air conditioner, and then execute step 25.
[0123] Step 25: When the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to the current indoor dew point temperature of the air conditioner, obtain the difference △t between the current indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the set temperature of the air conditioner, and determine whether the difference △t is less than the preset temperature t 预设值 (Recommended value 3°C): If yes, go to step 26; otherwise, go to step 27.
[0124] Step 26: When the difference △t is less than the preset temperature t 预设值 (recommended value 3℃), reduce the compressor operating frequency to increase the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, and then return to step 22 to perform cyclic control until the current air outlet temperature of the air conditioner is greater than the current dew point temperature of the air conditioner, stop reducing the compressor operating frequency, and then continue to return to step 22 to continue cyclic control.
[0125] Step 27: When the difference △t is greater than or equal to the preset temperature t 预设值 (recommended value 3°C), the air conditioner is controlled to maintain the current state of operation, and then returns to step 22 to perform loop control.
