Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and more particularly, to an air conditioner and an air conditioner control method. Background Art
[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the emphasis on health, fresh air air conditioners have become a rapidly growing category of products in the air conditioner industry. While the fresh air function of fresh air air conditioners brings healthy air to consumers, the requirements for the appearance refinement, cost, and comfort of the products are also getting higher and higher.
[0003] Most of the existing fresh air air conditioners adopt two methods for the layout of fresh air outlets:
[0004] The first method is to independently set the fresh air outlet and the main air duct outlet. It is necessary to set related components such as baffles for opening and closing the air outlet and adjusting the wind direction and speed at both the fresh air outlet and the main air duct outlet, that is, it is necessary to set two sets of related components such as baffles for opening and closing the air outlet and adjusting the wind direction and speed; this makes the number of structural components of the product large, the movement mechanism complex, the manufacturing labor intensity high, the manufacturing efficiency low, the manufacturing cost high, and it will also affect the appearance refinement of the product.
[0005] The second method is to borrow the main air duct outlet for the fresh air outlet, that is, the fresh air blown out by the fresh air fan is then inhaled through the main fan air duct and blown out through the air outlet structure of the main fan. When the fresh air function of the product with this layout method is turned on, the main fan system must be turned on, and the air sent out is a mixture of fresh air and indoor recycled air, and the effect of fresh air cannot be directly felt. At the same time, the operation of the two fan systems affects the energy consumption and noise of the product. Summary of the Invention

[0065] Specifically, by turning on the fresh air motor 24, the fresh air blower 22 is turned on; by raising the rotation speed of the fresh air motor 24 to R2 for operation, the rotation speed of the fresh air blower 22 is raised to Q2 for operation; by raising the rotation speed of the fresh air motor 24 to R4 for operation, the rotation speed of the fresh air blower 22 is raised to Q4 for operation; by making R4 less than R2, Q4 is made less than Q2.
[0066] Specifically, in step S12: turn on the main air duct motor 12 and raise the rotation speed of the main air duct motor 12 to R1 for operation; do not start the fresh air motor 24.
[0067] Specifically, in step S21, turn on the fresh air motor 24 and raise the rotation speed of the fresh air motor 24 to R2 for operation; do not start the main air duct motor 12.
[0068] Optionally, the value range of R1 is 600 r / min to 1200 r / min; the value range of R2 is 500 r / min to 2000 r / min. Wherein, r / min is revolutions per minute.
[0069] Specifically, R1 - R3 = ΔR1; R2 - R4 = ΔR2. Optionally, the value range of ΔR1 is 0 to 1200 r / min; the value range of ΔR2 is 0 to 2000 r / min.
[0070] Specifically, the value range of the first preset value is 30 degrees to 50 degrees; the value range of the second preset value is 20 degrees to 40 degrees.
[0071] According to the above air conditioner control method, regardless of whether the air conditioner operates in the conventional mode, fresh air mode, or linkage mode, when the air conditioner is turned on, the baffle 40 will first act to open the preset opening 33. The purpose of this setting is to make the fresh air motor 24 and / or the main air duct motor 12 turn on later than the baffle 40, so as to effectively avoid the problem that when the motor starts, there is wind, but the baffle 40 blocks the preset opening 33, resulting in the wind not being able to blow out, thereby generating noise or causing problems with the reliability of use.
[0072] In addition, by adopting the air conditioner control method of the present application: 1. It can effectively avoid the problem that the fresh air motor 24 and / or the main air duct motor 12 start when the shielding part 25 and / or the baffle 40 are not opened, resulting in large fluctuations in the motor load and affecting the service life of the motor; 2. It can effectively avoid the problem of the reliability of the fresh air motor 24 during operation caused by the mismatch between the opening angle of the shielding part 25 and the operating speed of the fresh air motor 24, which leads to fluctuations in the load of the fresh air motor 24; 3. It can avoid the problem of noise quality caused by the mismatch between the on-off state and the air flow size of the air inlet channel 21 and the air outlet duct 23; 4. When the air conditioner operates in the linkage mode, by reducing the operating speed of the fresh air motor 24 and / or the main air duct motor 12, it is beneficial to reduce the overall noise value of the unit; 5. When operating in the fresh air mode, the main air duct motor 12 does not start, which is beneficial to controlling the energy consumption of the air conditioner.
[0073] The air conditioner of the present application has the following advantages: 1. It can solve the problems of a large number of structural parts, complex motion mechanisms, high product costs, and insufficient product appearance refinement of air conditioners with fresh air functions; 2. It can solve the problems of high energy consumption, high noise, and poor fresh air effect experience of air conditioners with fresh air functions; 3. It can improve the noise quality comfort and use reliability of air conditioners with fresh air functions.
[0074] The air conditioner of the present application can reduce the manufacturing cost of fresh air air conditioner products, improve the manufacturing efficiency of fresh air air conditioner products, improve the appearance refinement of products, and improve the noise quality comfort of products. At the same time, it can reduce the energy consumption of fresh air function use and contribute to the "dual carbon" goal.
[0075] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0076] In the air conditioner provided by the present invention, the air conditioner includes a housing 30, a main air component 10, a fresh air component 20, and a baffle 40. The housing 30 has an air conditioner air outlet part 31, a fresh air outlet part 32, and a preset opening 33. The air conditioner air outlet part 31 and the fresh air outlet part 32 are independently arranged. Both the air conditioner air outlet part 31 and the fresh air outlet part 32 are located inside the preset opening 33, and both the air conditioner air outlet part 31 and the fresh air outlet part 32 communicate with the preset opening 33, so that the air conditioner air blown out by the air conditioner air outlet part 31 and the fresh air blown out by the fresh air outlet part 32 both pass through the preset opening 33 and are blown to the outside of the air conditioner. The air conditioner air outlet part 31 and the fresh air outlet part 32 are distributed along a first direction. The baffle 40 is movably arranged at the preset opening 33 to open or close the preset opening 33. The main air component 10 includes a main air blower 11. The main air blower 11 is oppositely arranged with the air conditioner air outlet part 31 and is rotatably arranged, so that under the action of the main air blower 11, the air conditioner air outlet part 31 blows out air conditioner air. The fresh air component 20 includes a fresh air blower 22, an air inlet channel 21, and a shielding part 25. The outlet of the air inlet channel 21 is communicated with the inlet of the fresh air blower 22. At least part of the fresh air component 20 is oppositely arranged with the fresh air outlet part 32, so that under the action of the fresh air component 20, the fresh air outlet part 32 blows out fresh air. The shielding part 25 is rotatably arranged in the air inlet channel 21, so that the shielding part 25 stops in the air inlet channel 21, or the end of the shielding part 25 is spaced from the inner wall of the air inlet channel 21, and further the shielding part 25 is in a blocking state or a yielding state, so that the air inlet channel 21 is in a disconnected state or a connected state.
[0077] In the air conditioner of the present application, the air conditioner air outlet part 31 and the fresh air outlet part 32 are independently arranged and share the baffle 40, that is, only by the baffle 40 can the air outlet of both the air conditioner air outlet part 31 and the fresh air outlet part 32 be controlled at the same time, which simplifies the overall structure of the air conditioner, is beneficial to controlling the cost of the air conditioner and improving the manufacturing efficiency of the air conditioner, and solves the problem that the overall structure of the air conditioner in the prior art is complicated when the fresh air outlet and the main air duct outlet are independently arranged.
