[0002] The outdoor fan of an air conditioner is an important component of heat exchange of the air conditioner. The outdoor fan is installed in an external environment and is prone to various faults such as dirt blocking and damage. The faults occur repeatedly, but the air conditioner has poor ability of automatic identification and automatic adjustment, which leads to frequent start and pause of the air conditioner and cannot properly solve the problem of the outdoor fan of the air conditioner, thereby affecting the experience of the user. SUMMARY

[0003] Therefore, the present application provides an air conditioner, a control method and device thereof, and a readable storage medium to improve the fault identification and self-repairing ability of the air conditioner. By obtaining the operating parameters of the air conditioner, the abnormal conditions of the operating parameters are determined, so that the fault causes are more accurately identified, the fault problem is timely solved, the repeated start and stop of the air conditioner are avoided, the hardware of the air conditioner is protected, and the experience of the user is improved.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the present application provides an air conditioner and a control method and device thereof. The air conditioner comprises an outdoor fan. The control method comprises: obtaining operating parameters of the air conditioner in the case that the air conditioner executes an outdoor fan protection mode; determining a fault type of the outdoor fan according to the operating parameters; and controlling the air conditioner to execute a repair operation corresponding to the fault type.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects achieved by adopting the technical scheme are as follows: in the case that the air conditioner executes the fan protection mode, the operating parameters of the air conditioner are obtained, the fault causes of the outdoor fan can be more accurately determined, different repair operations are set according to different fault types, the fault is solved, and the experience of the user is improved.

[0006] Further, the operating parameters comprise: a current growth rate of the outdoor fan, and / or a high-pressure pressure of the air conditioner, and / or a saturation temperature of the air conditioner.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects achieved by adopting the technical scheme are as follows: the current growth rate of the outdoor fan can reflect the working condition of the outdoor fan, the high-pressure pressure of the air conditioner can reflect the working state of the condenser of the air conditioner, the condenser operates by absorbing the energy of gas or steam, and the saturation temperature of the air conditioner refers to the temperature at which the refrigerant in the condenser is condensed from high-temperature gaseous refrigerant to liquid refrigerant. When the high-pressure pressure is too high and / or the saturation temperature is too high, it indicates that the air intake and / or air exhaust of the outdoor fan is abnormal, which leads to current overload of the outdoor fan.

[0008] Further, according to the running parameter of the air conditioner, the fault type of the outdoor fan is judged, specifically including: comparing the running parameter with the parameter threshold value, and judging the fault type of the outdoor fan according to the comparison result.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects achieved by adopting the technical scheme are: the size relationship between the running parameter and the parameter threshold value can reflect the fault type of the outdoor fan to a certain extent, so that the fault type can be more accurately identified, the high-pressure pressure and the saturation temperature value are high, which indicates that the fan rotation of the outdoor fan is blocked, and the fan rotation blockage can cause the current of the outdoor fan to be too high, the current growth rate to be too large, and a single running parameter cannot accurately identify the fault cause, so multiple running parameters need to be obtained to accurately judge the fault type.

[0010] Further, the air conditioner further comprises an outdoor heat exchanger, the running parameter comprises: the current growth rate of the outdoor fan and the high-pressure pressure of the air conditioner, and according to the running parameter, the fault type of the outdoor fan is judged, specifically including: comparing the current growth rate with the growth rate threshold value, and comparing the high-pressure pressure with the pressure threshold value; in the case that the current growth rate is greater than the growth rate threshold value and the high-pressure pressure is greater than the pressure threshold value, it is judged that the fault type is a first type of fault; in the case that the current growth rate is less than the growth rate threshold value and the high-pressure pressure is less than the pressure threshold value, it is judged that the fault type is a second type of fault; wherein the first type of fault is that the air inlet and / or the air outlet of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is abnormal, and the second type of fault is that the efficiency of the outdoor heat exchanger is abnormal.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects achieved by adopting the technical scheme are: the current growth rate is compared with the growth rate threshold value, and the high-pressure pressure is compared with the pressure threshold value, the mathematical operation of the two is not affected by the order, when the current growth rate is greater than the growth rate threshold value, the current of the outdoor fan grows slowly, the output power of the outdoor fan is reduced, at the same time, the high-pressure pressure is greater than the pressure threshold value, the air inlet and / or the air outlet of the outdoor fan is abnormal, it is judged that the outdoor fan is a first type of fault, and the air inlet and / or the air outlet is blocked. When the current growth rate is less than the growth rate threshold value, the current of the outdoor fan grows too fast, and the high-pressure pressure is less than the pressure threshold value, there is foreign matter between the fans of the outdoor fan, it is judged that the outdoor fan is a second type of fault, and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor fan is abnormal.

[0012] Further, in the case that the fault type is a first type of fault, the repair operation comprises: checking whether the air inlet and / or the air outlet is blocked and / or blocked by foreign matter; in the case that the fault type is a second type of fault, the repair operation comprises: controlling the outdoor fan to reverse.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects achieved by the technical scheme are as follows: in the case of a first type of fault of the outdoor fan, the air inlet and / or air outlet of the outdoor fan is checked to check whether the air inlet and / or air outlet is blocked or shielded by foreign matter, so that the air inlet and / or air outlet is abnormal, and timely repair operation is provided to avoid long-term abnormal operation of the air conditioner and damage to hardware, thereby reducing the maintenance cost; in the case of a second type of fault of the outdoor fan, the outdoor fan is seriously dirty and blocked, the outdoor fan is controlled to reverse to remove the dirty and blocked foreign matter, thereby avoiding manual cleaning of the outdoor fan by the user and increasing the safety in use.

[0014] Further, after the air conditioner is controlled to perform the repair operation corresponding to the fault type, the control method further includes: determining whether the outdoor fan fault is removed; in the case where the outdoor fan fault is not removed, controlling the air conditioner to perform a target protection mode, wherein the target protection mode includes: controlling the outdoor fan to reduce the frequency, and / or controlling the air conditioner to stop running, and in the case where the outdoor fan fault is removed, controlling the air conditioner to keep running.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects achieved by the technical scheme are as follows: after the repair operation is performed, it is determined whether the outdoor fan fault is removed to verify the effect of the repair operation, in the case where the outdoor fan fault is not removed, the target protection mode is performed to protect the hardware of the air conditioner from being damaged by adjusting the frequency of the outdoor fan and / or stopping the air conditioner, and in the case where the outdoor fan fault is removed, the air conditioner continues to run, thereby improving the experience of the user.

[0016] Further, the determination of whether the outdoor fan fault is removed specifically includes: obtaining a real-time current value of the outdoor fan, obtaining a protection current value of the outdoor fan, obtaining a calculation value by subtracting the real-time current value from the protection current value, and comparing the calculation value with a first standard value; in the case where the calculation value is greater than the first standard value, the outdoor fan protection mode is not triggered, and it is determined that the outdoor fan fault is removed; and in the case where the calculation value is less than or equal to the first standard value, it is determined that the outdoor fan fault is not removed.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects achieved by the technical scheme are as follows: the calculation value is compared with the first standard value, if the calculation value is less than or equal to the first standard value, the real-time current of the outdoor fan does not meet the requirement for normal operation of the outdoor fan, and thus the outdoor fan fault is not removed, and if the calculation value is greater than the first standard value, the real-time current of the outdoor fan meets the requirement for normal operation of the outdoor fan, and thus the outdoor fan fault is removed, thereby verifying the effect of the repair operation, and the running state of the outdoor fan can be determined in time, thereby improving the experience of the user.

[0036] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0037] Specifically, the present application provides a control method of an air conditioner, the air conditioner comprising an outdoor fan, the control method comprising: in the case that the air conditioner executes an outdoor fan protection mode, acquiring an operating parameter of the air conditioner, judging a fault type of the outdoor fan according to the operating parameter, and controlling the air conditioner to execute a repair operation corresponding to the fault type.

[0038] As shown in the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 when the air conditioner executes the fan protection mode,

[0039] S100, the air conditioner executes a fan protection mode;

[0040] S200, an operating parameter of the air conditioner is acquired;

[0041] S300, a fault type of the outdoor fan is judged;

[0042] S400, a repair operation corresponding to the fault type is executed;

[0043] The operating parameter of the air conditioner is acquired, and the operating parameter is judged to determine the fault cause of the outdoor fan. Different repair operations are adopted for different fault causes, and the corresponding repair operation is executed to improve the experience of the user.

[0044] For example, the operating parameter includes: a current growth rate of the outdoor fan, and / or a high-pressure pressure of the air conditioner, and / or a saturation temperature of the air conditioner.

[0045] Specifically, the current growth rate of the outdoor fan can be used to judge the operating condition of the outdoor fan. Therefore, a current sensor is installed to acquire the current growth rate of the outdoor fan. The high-pressure pressure of the air conditioner refers to the condensing pressure, which is directly acquired by a pressure sensor. The saturation temperature of the air conditioner refers to the condensing temperature, which is monitored by a temperature sensor. The condensing temperature rises, and the condensing pressure rises relatively. The two correspond to each other.

[0046] Preferably, the air conditioner further includes an outdoor unit heat exchanger. The operating parameter includes the current growth rate of the outdoor fan and the high-pressure pressure of the air conditioner. According to the operating parameter, the fault type of the outdoor fan is judged. Specifically, the current growth rate is compared with a growth rate threshold value in size, and the high-pressure pressure is compared with a pressure threshold value in size. In the case that the current growth rate is greater than the growth rate threshold value and the high-pressure pressure is greater than the pressure threshold value, it is judged that the fault type is a first type of fault. In the case that the current growth rate is less than the growth rate threshold value and the high-pressure pressure is less than the pressure threshold value, it is judged that the fault type is a second type of fault. The first type of fault is that the air inlet and / or the air outlet of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is abnormal, and the second type of fault is that the efficiency of the outdoor unit heat exchanger is abnormal.

[0047] Specifically, in the case that the current growth rate is greater than the growth rate threshold value and the high-pressure pressure is greater than the pressure threshold value, the current growth is too fast, and the high-pressure pressure is too large, which indicates that the operating load of the outdoor fan is too high, the air volume is abnormal, the heat exchange effect is poor, and the outdoor fan has the first type of fault. In the case that the current growth rate is less than the growth rate threshold value and the high-pressure pressure is less than the pressure threshold value, the current growth is slow, the air inlet and / or the air outlet of the outdoor fan is normal, and the high-pressure pressure is small. The outdoor fan has the second type of fault. The outdoor unit heat exchanger of the outdoor fan is checked to check the dirty and blocked condition of the outdoor unit heat exchanger.

[0048] Specifically, in the case of the fault type being the first type of fault, the repair operation includes checking whether the air inlet and / or the air outlet is blocked and / or clogged by foreign matter; in the case of the fault type being the second type of fault, the repair operation includes controlling the outdoor fan to reverse.

[0049] Specifically, in the case of the first type of fault, it is checked whether the air inlet and / or the air outlet of the outdoor fan is blocked by foreign matter, which blocks the air inlet and / or the air outlet and causes abnormal air volume, and in the case of the second type of fault, the outdoor fan is reversed to remove foreign matter between the fans of the outdoor fan, thereby avoiding manual cleaning of the outdoor fan and improving the safety of use.

[0050] After the air conditioner is controlled to perform the repair operation corresponding to the fault type, the control method further includes: judging whether the outdoor fan fault is resolved; in the case that the outdoor fan fault is not resolved, controlling the air conditioner to perform a target protection mode, wherein the target protection mode includes: controlling the outdoor fan to reduce the frequency, and / or controlling the air conditioner to stop; in the case that the outdoor fan fault is resolved, controlling the air conditioner to keep running.

[0051] After the air conditioner performs the repair operation, it is necessary to judge whether the outdoor fan fault is resolved, which improves the reliability of the repair operation, in the case that the outdoor fan fault is not resolved, the air conditioner performs a target protection mode, which protects the hardware of the air conditioner by reducing the frequency and / or stopping, thereby avoiding damage to the hardware of the air conditioner and increasing the cost of maintenance, in the case that the outdoor fan fault is resolved, the air conditioner keeps running.

[0052] For example, judging whether the outdoor fan fault is resolved specifically includes: detecting the real-time current of the outdoor fan, obtaining a calculation value by calculating the real-time current, and comparing the calculation value with a first standard value; in the case that the calculation value is greater than the first standard value, it is judged that the outdoor fan fault is resolved; in the case that the calculation value is less than or equal to the first standard value, it is judged that the outdoor fan fault is not resolved.

[0053] Preferably, the first standard value is 0.1A, and the first standard value is used to judge whether the outdoor fan fault is resolved. The real-time current value of the outdoor fan is obtained, the calculation value is obtained by subtracting the protection current value of the outdoor fan from the real-time current value, and the calculation value is compared with the first standard value, in the case that the calculation value is greater than the first standard value, the outdoor fan fault is resolved, in the case that the calculation value is less than or equal to the first standard value, the outdoor fan fault is not resolved, the difference between the real-time current value of the outdoor fan and the protection current value of the outdoor fan is small, the real-time current value is large, and is close to the protection current value, and then it is inferred that the outdoor fan fault is not resolved.

[0054] Specifically, the target mode comprises: controlling the frequency of the outdoor fan to reduce at a target speed; the standard value is a difference between a real-time current value of the outdoor fan in a normal operating state and a protection current value of the outdoor fan; obtaining the real-time current value of the outdoor fan, and obtaining a calculation value by subtracting the real-time current value from the protection current value of the outdoor fan; comparing the calculation value with the second standard value, and continuously reducing the frequency of the outdoor fan and comparing again until the calculation value is greater than the second standard value in the case that the calculation value is less than or equal to the second standard value.

[0055] Specifically, in the case that the calculation value is less than the second standard value, the outdoor fan is reduced in frequency, and the frequency is reduced by 1-5 Hz each time until the calculation value is greater than the second standard value, and the frequency reduction is stopped.

[0056] Preferably, the second standard value is 0.1 A, wherein the second standard value can be the same as the first standard value.

[0057] Preferably, the outdoor fan is reduced in frequency by 2 Hz each time, so as to avoid that the frequency reduction is too large to trigger other protection systems of the air conditioner, and meanwhile, considering the system design margin, the total of the frequency reduction is 10 Hz, so as to avoid that the total of the frequency reduction is too large to affect the use effect of the air conditioner, trigger other protection devices and affect the user experience.

[0058] Preferably, in the case that the total of the frequency reduction is greater than 10 Hz and / or the air conditioner enters the outdoor fan protection mode again and / or the calculation value is still less than the standard value, the air conditioner is stopped, so as to avoid that other hardware is damaged and the maintenance cost is increased.
