Therefore, the environmental parameter adjustment achieved by the "scene linkage" control strategy cannot meet the user's comfort needs. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.

[0004] Therefore, a first aspect of the present invention is to provide one of the control methods.

[0005] A second aspect of the present invention is that a second control method is provided.

[0006] A third aspect of the invention is that it provides one type of control device.

[0007] A fourth aspect of the present invention is that a second control device is provided.

[0008] A fifth aspect of the present invention is that a third type of control device is provided.

[0009] A sixth aspect of the present invention is that a readable storage medium is provided.

[0010] A seventh aspect of the present invention is that a temperature regulating device is provided.

[0011] An eighth aspect of the present invention is to provide a humidity regulating device.

[0012] A ninth aspect of the present invention is that a control system is provided.

[0013] In view of this, according to a first aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a control method for a humidity regulating device, comprising: acquiring the ambient temperature and ambient humidity of the environment in which the temperature regulating device is located; determining the rate of change of the ambient temperature when the ambient temperature reaches a target temperature value in a first stage; determining the rate of change of the ambient humidity when the ambient humidity reaches a target humidity value in the first stage; and determining an operating strategy of the temperature regulating device in a second stage based on a comparison result of the rate of change of temperature and the rate of change of humidity.

[0014] The technical solution of this application proposes a control method that enables rapid adjustment of environmental parameters and predicts the next stage of operation during the adjustment process. This improves the matching degree between environmental humidity and temperature during the adjustment to target temperature and humidity values, thereby enhancing the user's comfort experience during the adjustment process.

[0015] Specifically, by determining the rates of temperature and humidity change in the first stage, the comparison of these rates allows for the assessment of the temperature and humidity changes during that stage. This helps identify whether the temperature or humidity adjustment is too rapid, and based on this, the operating strategy for the second stage is determined. Adjusting the operating strategy improves the matching between temperature and humidity during the adjustment process, reducing the likelihood of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0016] In addition, the control method proposed in this application has the following additional technical features.

[0017] In the above technical solution, the operating strategy of the temperature control device in the second stage is determined based on the comparison results of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate, including: determining that the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, and in the second stage, sending the target temperature value of the second stage after a first delay; and / or determining that the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, and in the second stage, lowering the operating level of the temperature control device.

[0018] In this technical solution, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively fast. In this case, the target temperature value of the second stage is sent after a delay of the first duration in the second stage, so as to delay the operation of the temperature regulation device, thereby creating the control effect of waiting for the humidity to rise.

[0019] Furthermore, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively rapid. In this case, the operating level of the temperature control device is lowered in the second stage to reduce the influence of the temperature control device on the ambient temperature, thereby slowing down the rate of increase in ambient temperature and creating a control effect of waiting for the humidity to rise.

[0020] The above technical solutions can reduce the degree of mismatch between ambient humidity and ambient temperature in the second stage, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0021] In one of the technical solutions, the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change is related to the first duration. Specifically, the greater the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change, the longer the first duration; conversely, the smaller the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change, the shorter the first duration.

[0022] In any of the above technical solutions, the operating strategy of the temperature control device in the second stage is determined based on the comparison results of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate, including: determining that the temperature change rate is less than the humidity change rate, and increasing the operating level of the temperature control device in the second stage.

[0023] In this technical solution, when the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be slow. In this case, the operating level of the temperature regulation device is increased in the second stage to enhance the influence of the temperature regulation device on the ambient temperature, thereby increasing the rate of increase of the ambient temperature and creating a control effect of waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0024] In one of the technical solutions, the operating levels of the temperature regulating device can be pre-defined so that in the first stage, the temperature regulating device is controlled to operate at the default operating level, and in the second stage, the operating level is adjusted up or down based on the default operating level.

[0025] In any of the above technical solutions, the method further includes: determining the temperature change value of the ambient temperature and the second duration corresponding to the temperature change value in the first stage; and determining the temperature change rate based on the temperature change value and the second duration.

[0026] In this technical solution, a method for determining the rate of temperature change is given. The temperature change value of the ambient temperature can be understood as the difference between the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the second duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient temperature to change from the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of temperature change can be understood as the absolute ratio of the temperature change value to the second duration.

[0027] In any of the above technical solutions, the method further includes: determining the humidity change value of the ambient humidity in the first stage and the third duration corresponding to the humidity change value; and determining the humidity change rate based on the humidity change value and the third duration.

[0028] In this technical solution, a method for determining the rate of humidity change is given. The humidity change value of the environment can be understood as the difference between the environment humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the third duration can be understood as the time taken for the environment humidity to change from the environment humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of humidity change can be understood as the absolute ratio of the humidity change value to the third duration.

[0029] In any of the above technical solutions, the method further includes: receiving a set temperature value and a set humidity value; and determining a first stage and a second stage based on the ambient temperature, ambient humidity, set temperature value, and set humidity value.

Specifically, the temperature difference required to adjust from the ambient temperature to the set temperature value can be determined based on the ambient temperature and the set temperature value, and multiple stages can be obtained based on the temperature difference.

[0031] Similarly, the humidity difference required to adjust from the ambient humidity to the set humidity value can be determined based on the ambient humidity and the set humidity value, and the target humidity value for each stage can be determined based on the number of stages obtained.

[0032] In one of the technical solutions, to ensure a comfortable user experience, the target humidity value and target temperature value at each stage are matched and meet the requirements for temperature and humidity within the human comfort range.

[0033] In any of the above technical solutions, the method further includes: determining the human body's perceived comfort level based on the ambient temperature and humidity; in the case where the human body's perceived comfort level is dry and cold or humid and hot, controlling the temperature regulating device to operate at the operating level of the first stage in the second stage; in the case where the human body's perceived comfort level is dry and hot, sending the target temperature value of the second stage after a first delay in the second stage; and / or lowering the operating level of the temperature regulating device in the second stage; in the case where the human body's perceived comfort level is humid and cold, raising the operating level of the temperature regulating device in the second stage.

[0034] This technical solution provides a control strategy for the temperature regulation device in dry-cold, humid-hot, dry-hot, and humid-cold scenarios. In dry-cold or humid-hot scenarios, the device maintains the operating level of the first stage to keep the temperature adjustment speed up. At this time, it does not wait for the humidity to rise, so as to ensure the user's need for a warm environment and reduce the time the user spends in a cold environment or a humid-hot environment.

[0035] In the case of dry heat, in the second stage, the target temperature value for the second stage is sent after a first delay; and / or in the second stage, the operating level of the temperature regulation device is lowered to wait for the humidity to rise, thereby ensuring the matching degree of temperature and humidity.

[0036] In any of the above technical solutions, the following is also included: obtaining the current season; based on the current season being winter, controlling the temperature regulation device to operate at the operating level of the first stage.

[0037] In this technical solution, the current season is obtained. If the current season is winter, the user's temperature needs are prioritized. Specifically, the system is operated at the operating level of the first stage to ensure a rapid increase in ambient temperature.

[0038] In one of the technical solutions, in the current winter season, the temperature control device operates at the first stage operating level until the ambient temperature rises to above 18 degrees Celsius.

[0039] In one of the technical solutions, in order to ensure that the user's temperature needs are met, the heating level of the temperature regulating device is increased in the second stage when the current season is winter.

This improves the matching degree between environmental humidity and temperature during the adjustment to target temperature and humidity values, thereby enhancing the user's comfort experience during the adjustment process.

[0042] Specifically, by determining the rates of temperature and humidity change in the first stage, the comparison of these rates allows for the assessment of the temperature and humidity changes during that stage. This helps identify whether the temperature or humidity adjustment is too rapid, and based on this, the operating strategy for the second stage is determined. Adjusting the operating strategy improves the matching between temperature and humidity during the adjustment process, reducing the likelihood of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0043] In addition, the control method proposed in this application has the following additional technical features.

[0044] In the above technical solution, the operating strategy of the humidity control device in the second stage is determined based on the comparison results of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate, including: if the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, the operating level of the humidity control device is increased in the second stage; if the temperature change rate is less than the humidity change rate, the operating level of the humidity control device is decreased in the second stage.

[0045] In this technical solution, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively fast. In this case, the operating level of the humidity control device is increased in the second stage to enhance the influence of the humidity control device on the ambient humidity and the matching degree between temperature and humidity, thereby reducing the probability of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, and thus ensuring user comfort.

[0046] Furthermore, if the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be slow. In this case, the operating level of the humidity control device is lowered in the second stage to reduce the influence of the humidity control device on the ambient humidity, thereby slowing down the rate of increase in ambient humidity and creating a control effect of waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0047] The above technical solutions can reduce the degree of mismatch between ambient humidity and ambient temperature in the second stage, thereby ensuring user comfort.

The temperature change value of the ambient temperature can be understood as the difference between the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the second duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient temperature to change from the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of temperature change can be understood as the absolute ratio of the temperature change value to the second duration.

[0050] In any of the above technical solutions, the method further includes: determining the humidity change value of the ambient humidity in the first stage and the third duration corresponding to the humidity change value; and determining the humidity change rate based on the humidity change value and the third duration.

[0051] In this technical solution, a method for determining the rate of humidity change is given. The humidity change value of the environment can be understood as the difference between the environment humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage.

Specifically, the temperature difference required to adjust from the ambient temperature to the set temperature value can be determined based on the ambient temperature and the set temperature value, and multiple stages can be obtained based on the temperature difference.

[0054] Similarly, the humidity difference required to adjust from the ambient humidity to the set humidity value can be determined based on the ambient humidity and the set humidity value, and the target humidity value for each stage can be determined based on the number of stages obtained.

[0057] This technical solution provides a control strategy for the temperature regulation device in dry-cold, humid-hot, dry-hot, and humid-cold scenarios. In dry-cold or humid-hot scenarios, the device maintains the operating setting of the first stage to keep the humidity adjustment speed up, without waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0058] In hot and dry conditions, increase the operating level of the humidity control device to enhance its effect on ambient humidity, thereby improving the humidity level and enhancing the experience of hot and dry environments.

[0059] In damp and cold conditions, lower the operating level of the humidity control device to reduce its impact on the ambient humidity, slow down the rate of humidity change in the environment, and wait for the ambient temperature to rise, thus improving the experience of a damp and cold environment.

[0102] In one of the technical solutions, to ensure a comfortable user experience, the target humidity value and target temperature value at each stage are matched and meet the requirements for temperature and humidity within the human comfort range.

[0103] In any of the above technical solutions, the second control unit is further configured to: determine the human body's perceived comfort level based on the ambient temperature and humidity; when the perceived comfort level is dry and cold or humid and hot, control the humidity regulating device to operate at the operating level of the first stage in the second stage; when the perceived comfort level is dry and hot, increase the operating level of the humidity regulating device in the second stage; when the perceived comfort level is humid and cold, decrease the operating level of the humidity regulating device in the second stage.

[0104] This technical solution provides a control strategy for the temperature regulation device in dry-cold, humid-hot, dry-hot, and humid-cold scenarios. In dry-cold or humid-hot scenarios, the device maintains the operating setting of the first stage to keep the humidity adjustment speed up, without waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0105] In hot and dry conditions, increase the operating level of the humidity control device to enhance its effect on ambient humidity, thereby improving the humidity level and enhancing the experience of hot and dry environments.

[0106] In damp and cold conditions, lower the operating level of the humidity control device to reduce its impact on the ambient humidity, slow down the rate of humidity change in the environment, and wait for the ambient temperature to rise, thus improving the experience of a damp and cold environment.

[0125] To better understand the above aspects, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0126] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the scope of protection of the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0127] like Figure 1 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the present invention provides a control method for a humidity regulating device, comprising:

[0128] Step 102: Obtain the ambient temperature and humidity of the environment where the temperature control device is located;

[0129] Step 104: Determine the ambient temperature to reach the target temperature value of the first stage, and the rate of change of the ambient temperature.

[0130] Step 106: Determine the rate of change of ambient humidity when the target humidity value for the first stage is reached.

[0131] Step 108: Determine the operating strategy of the temperature control device in the second stage based on the comparison results of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate.

[0132] The embodiments of this application propose a control method that enables rapid adjustment of environmental parameters and predicts the next stage of operation during the adjustment process. This improves the matching degree between environmental humidity and environmental temperature during the adjustment to target temperature and humidity values, thereby enhancing the user's comfort experience during the adjustment process.

[0133] Specifically, by determining the rates of temperature and humidity change in the first stage, the comparison of these rates allows for the assessment of the temperature and humidity changes during that stage. This helps identify whether the temperature or humidity adjustment is too rapid, and based on this, the operating strategy for the second stage is determined. Adjusting the operating strategy improves the matching between temperature and humidity during the adjustment process, reducing the likelihood of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0134] In the above embodiments, the operating strategy of the temperature control device in the second stage is determined based on the comparison result of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate, including: determining that the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, and in the second stage, sending the target temperature value of the second stage after a first delay; and / or determining that the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, and in the second stage, lowering the operating level of the temperature control device.

[0135] In this embodiment, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively fast. In this case, the target temperature value of the second stage is sent after a first delay in the second stage, so as to delay the operation of the temperature regulation device, thereby creating a control effect of waiting for the humidity to rise.

[0136] Furthermore, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively rapid. In this case, the operating level of the temperature control device is lowered in the second stage to reduce the influence of the temperature control device on the ambient temperature, thereby slowing down the rate of increase in ambient temperature and creating a control effect of waiting for the humidity to rise.

[0137] Through the above embodiments, the degree of mismatch between ambient humidity and ambient temperature can be reduced in the second stage, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0138] In one embodiment, the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change is related to the first duration. Specifically, the larger the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change, the longer the first duration; conversely, the smaller the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change, the shorter the first duration.

[0139] In any of the above embodiments, determining the operating strategy of the temperature control device in the second stage based on the comparison result of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate includes: determining that the temperature change rate is less than the humidity change rate, and increasing the operating level of the temperature control device in the second stage.

[0140] In this embodiment, when the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be slow. In this case, the operating level of the temperature regulating device is increased in the second stage to enhance the influence of the temperature regulating device on the ambient temperature, thereby increasing the rate of increase of the ambient temperature and creating a control effect of waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0141] In one embodiment, the operating levels of the temperature regulating device can be predefined so that in the first stage, the temperature regulating device is controlled to operate at the default operating level, and in the second stage, the operating level is adjusted up or down based on the default operating level.

[0142] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: determining the temperature change value of the ambient temperature and the second duration corresponding to the temperature change value in the first stage; and determining the temperature change rate based on the temperature change value and the second duration.

[0143] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of temperature change is given. The temperature change value of the ambient temperature can be understood as the difference between the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the second duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient temperature to change from the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of temperature change can be understood as the absolute ratio of the temperature change value to the second duration.

[0144] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: determining the humidity change value of the ambient humidity and the third duration corresponding to the humidity change value in the first stage; and determining the humidity change rate based on the humidity change value and the third duration.

[0145] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of change of humidity is given. The change value of ambient humidity can be understood as the difference between the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the third duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient humidity to change from the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of change of humidity can be understood as the absolute ratio of the change value of humidity to the third duration.

[0146] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: receiving a set temperature value and a set humidity value; and determining a first stage and a second stage based on the ambient temperature, ambient humidity, set temperature value, and set humidity value.

[0147] In this embodiment, a possible method for determining the first stage and the second stage is given. Specifically, the temperature difference required to adjust from the ambient temperature to the set temperature value can be determined based on the ambient temperature and the set temperature value, and multiple stages can be obtained based on the temperature difference.

[0148] Similarly, the humidity difference required to adjust from the ambient humidity to the set humidity value can be determined based on the ambient humidity and the set humidity value, and the target humidity value for each stage can be determined based on the number of stages obtained.

[0149] In one embodiment, to ensure a comfortable user experience, the target humidity value and target temperature value for each stage are matched and conform to the temperature and humidity requirements within the human comfort range.

[0150] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: determining a human body temperature assessment based on ambient temperature and ambient humidity; if the human body temperature assessment is dry and cold or humid and hot, in the second stage, controlling the temperature regulating device to operate at the operating level of the first stage; if the human body temperature assessment is dry and hot, in the second stage, delaying the transmission of the target temperature value of the second stage for a first duration; and / or lowering the operating level of the temperature regulating device in the second stage; if the human body temperature assessment is humid and cold, raising the operating level of the temperature regulating device in the second stage.

[0151] In this embodiment, a control strategy for the temperature regulation device is given in dry-cold, humid-hot, dry-hot, and humid-cold scenarios. In dry-cold or humid-hot scenarios, the device maintains the operating level of the first stage to keep the temperature adjustment speed up. At this time, it does not wait for the humidity to rise to ensure the user's need for a warm environment and reduce the time the user spends in a cold environment or a humid-hot environment.

[0152] In the case of dry heat, in the second stage, the target temperature value for the second stage is sent after a first delay; and / or in the second stage, the operating level of the temperature regulation device is lowered to wait for the humidity to rise, thereby ensuring the matching degree of temperature and humidity.

[0153] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: obtaining the current season; and controlling the temperature regulation device to operate at the operating level of the first stage based on the current season being winter.

[0154] In this embodiment, the current season is obtained. If the current season is winter, the user's temperature needs are prioritized. Specifically, the system is operated at the operating level of the first stage to ensure a rapid increase in ambient temperature.

[0155] In one embodiment, when the current season is winter, the temperature control device operates at the operating level of the first stage until the ambient temperature rises to above 18 degrees Celsius.

[0156] In one embodiment, to ensure the user's temperature needs are met, the heating level of the temperature regulating device is increased during the second stage, assuming the current season is winter.

[0157] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a control method for a humidity regulating device, comprising:

[0158] Step 202: Obtain the ambient temperature and humidity of the environment where the humidity control device is located;

[0159] Step 204: Determine the ambient temperature to reach the target temperature value of the first stage, and the rate of change of the ambient temperature.

[0160] Step 206: Determine the rate of change of ambient humidity when the target humidity value for the first stage is reached.

[0161] Step 208: Determine the operating strategy of the humidity control device in the second stage based on the comparison results of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate.

[0162] The embodiments of this application propose a control method that enables rapid adjustment of environmental parameters and predicts the next stage of operation during the adjustment process. This improves the matching degree between environmental humidity and environmental temperature during the adjustment to target temperature and humidity values, thereby enhancing the user's comfort experience during the adjustment process.

[0163] Specifically, by determining the rates of temperature and humidity change in the first stage, the comparison of these rates allows for the assessment of the temperature and humidity changes during that stage. This helps identify whether the temperature or humidity adjustment is too rapid, and based on this, the operating strategy for the second stage is determined. Adjusting the operating strategy improves the matching between temperature and humidity during the adjustment process, reducing the likelihood of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0164] In the above embodiments, the operating strategy of the humidity control device in the second stage is determined based on the comparison result of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate, including: if the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, the operating level of the humidity control device is increased in the second stage; if the temperature change rate is less than the humidity change rate, the operating level of the humidity control device is decreased in the second stage.

[0165] In this embodiment, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively fast. In this case, the operating level of the humidity control device is increased in the second stage to enhance the influence of the humidity control device on the ambient humidity and the matching degree between temperature and humidity, thereby reducing the probability of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, and thus ensuring user comfort.

[0166] Furthermore, if the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be slow. In this case, the operating level of the humidity control device is lowered in the second stage to reduce the influence of the humidity control device on the ambient humidity, thereby slowing down the rate of increase in ambient humidity and creating a control effect of waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0167] Through the above embodiments, the degree of mismatch between ambient humidity and ambient temperature can be reduced in the second stage, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0168] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: determining the temperature change value of the ambient temperature and the second duration corresponding to the temperature change value in the first stage; and determining the temperature change rate based on the temperature change value and the second duration.

[0169] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of temperature change is given. The temperature change value of the ambient temperature can be understood as the difference between the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the second duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient temperature to change from the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of temperature change can be understood as the absolute ratio of the temperature change value to the second duration.

[0170] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: determining the humidity change value of the ambient humidity and the third duration corresponding to the humidity change value in the first stage; and determining the humidity change rate based on the humidity change value and the third duration.

[0171] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of change of humidity is given. The change value of ambient humidity can be understood as the difference between the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the third duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient humidity to change from the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of change of humidity can be understood as the absolute ratio of the change value of humidity to the third duration.

[0172] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: receiving a set temperature value and a set humidity value; and determining a first stage and a second stage based on the ambient temperature, ambient humidity, set temperature value, and set humidity value.

[0173] In this embodiment, a possible method for determining the first stage and the second stage is given. Specifically, the temperature difference required to adjust from the ambient temperature to the set temperature value can be determined based on the ambient temperature and the set temperature value, and multiple stages can be obtained based on the temperature difference.

[0174] Similarly, the humidity difference required to adjust from the ambient humidity to the set humidity value can be determined based on the ambient humidity and the set humidity value, and the target humidity value for each stage can be determined based on the number of stages obtained.

[0175] In one embodiment, to ensure a comfortable user experience, the target humidity value and target temperature value for each stage are matched and conform to the temperature and humidity requirements within the human comfort range.

[0176] In any of the above embodiments, the method further includes: determining the human body's perceived comfort level based on the ambient temperature and humidity; when the perceived comfort level is dry and cold or humid and hot, controlling the humidity regulating device to operate at the operating level of the first stage in the second stage; when the perceived comfort level is dry and hot, increasing the operating level of the humidity regulating device in the second stage; and when the perceived comfort level is humid and cold, decreasing the operating level of the humidity regulating device in the second stage.

[0177] In this embodiment, a control strategy for the temperature regulation device is given in dry-cold, humid-hot, dry-hot, and humid-cold scenarios. In dry-cold or humid-hot scenarios, the device maintains the operating level of the first stage to keep the humidity adjustment speed up, without waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0178] In hot and dry conditions, increase the operating level of the humidity control device to enhance its effect on ambient humidity, thereby improving the humidity level and enhancing the experience of hot and dry environments.

[0179] In damp and cold conditions, lower the operating level of the humidity control device to reduce its impact on the ambient humidity, slow down the rate of humidity change in the environment, and wait for the ambient temperature to rise, thus improving the experience of a damp and cold environment.

[0180] In one embodiment, the heating device is exemplified by a heater, which can be connected to a network for online or offline control. Figure 3 As shown, the control flow of the heater in offline mode includes:

[0181] Step 302: Receive the set temperature value;

[0182] Step 304: The temperature and humidity detection device collects the temperature value in the environment;

[0183] Step 306: Determine if the temperature value is less than the set temperature value. If the determination result is yes, proceed to step 308. If the determination result is no, proceed to step 310.

[0184] Step 308: The heater operates at full power;

[0185] Step 310: Dynamically adjust based on the judgment result that the temperature value is greater than the set temperature value + 0.5℃.

[0186] In this embodiment, the user sets the heating temperature via an app or sets the desired ambient temperature directly on the device, i.e., sets a temperature value. Sensors continuously monitor ambient temperature and humidity data and send the status to the heater in real time. In offline mode, the heater has a preset cold start algorithm, which was developed by a research institute based on human comfort studies, matching appropriate temperature and humidity according to human comfort levels. Figure 4 As shown, the heater operates at full power when the temperature does not reach the set temperature value; if the heater fails to reach the set temperature value for a long time, the humidifier will adjust according to comfort; when the temperature reaches or exceeds the set temperature value, the heater will dynamically control the device to keep the temperature within the range of ±0.5℃.

[0187] In one embodiment, when online, the heater and humidifier can be considered as home appliances, and their control logic is as follows: Figure 5 As shown:

[0188] Step 502: Determine if the home appliance is connected to the network. If the result is no, end the process. If the result is yes, proceed to step 504.

[0189] Step 504: Home appliance data reporting;

[0190] Step 506: Determine whether the adaptive function is enabled. If the result is yes, proceed to step 508. If the result is no, the process ends.

[0191] Step 508: Adjust the heater temperature to a comfortable level;

[0192] Step 510: Adjust the humidifier humidity and fan speed according to the cold start algorithm;

[0193] Step 512: Continuous monitoring and adjustment.

[0194] In one embodiment, the above solution can be applied to the control of various products, specifically, such as... Figure 6 As shown, it includes:

[0195] Step 602, set the target temperature;

[0196] Step 604: AI issues target values ​​for temperature and humidity;

[0197] Step 606: The heater and humidifier execute according to the target.

[0198] Step 608: Determine if the running time is greater than 1 minute. If the result is yes, proceed to step 610; otherwise, repeat step 608.

[0199] Step 610: Assess the current situation and adjust the strategy;

[0200] Step 612: Determine if the cumulative running time is less than 5 minutes. If the result is yes, proceed to step 604; otherwise, end.

[0201] The process involves users configuring the heater, humidifier, and sensors to their account and binding them via the app. The temperature and humidity sensors, acting as intermediaries, report the environmental status to the IoT server through a data reporting link. When the user activates the adaptive function, a prompt will appear if the three devices are not yet bound. The AI ​​server will then send a temperature of 18°C ​​to the heater or a preferred temperature learned from the user's habits. Based on the temperature and humidity algorithm, the humidifier will automatically turn on or off.

[0202] Specifically, when the ambient temperature is ≤13℃ or ≥21℃, perform the following steps:

[0203] The ambient humidity is ≤40%, and the humidifier's mist output and fan speed are both on the high end.

[0204] The ambient humidity is >40% and ≤60%, and the humidifier's mist output and fan speed are both at the medium setting.

[0205] When the ambient humidity is greater than 60%, the humidifier's mist output and fan speed are both set to low.

[0206] Humidifier should be turned off when the ambient humidity is greater than 80%.

[0207] During the adjustment process, the ambient humidity is maintained between 40% and 60%. Different humidity levels are matched to different temperatures, calculated automatically by the AI ​​server.

[0208] In one embodiment, the system continuously learns the current environmental state and predicts the timeliness of environmental control, and calculates an adaptive algorithm in real time.

[0209] like Figure 7 As shown, the range of humidity and temperature values ​​within the human comfort zone is defined. Specifically, users set the heating temperature through the APP page or the device itself. The AI ​​platform performs calculations based on the collected data, including: 1. Temperature and humidity information from the internal sensors of the heater / humidifier; 2. Temperature and humidity from external sensors; 3. Temperature and humidity of the current area; and 4. User usage habits.

[0210] After the user sets the heating temperature, such as 25℃, the system calculates the user's desired temperature and the target humidity value. It then sends the high-power operation mode and the calculated target temperature X℃ to the heater. Next, it determines whether the current temperature is within the human comfort range. If the humidity is too high, the humidifier is turned on; if the humidity is below 40%, the maximum airflow and maximum humidification are activated; if it is within the comfort range, the medium fan speed and humidification level 2 are activated.

[0211] The AI ​​sends out the target temperature and humidity level, which are not user-defined values, but rather values ​​learned by the system through matching historical user behavior and achievable environmental conditions. For example, if the user sets 25℃, and the current ambient temperature is low, the system will set the target temperature to the maximum of 35℃ and operate at maximum power, then continuously adjust the target temperature. At this time, the machine's buzzer will sound, and the digital display will show the temperature.

[0212] After receiving the command, the humidifier will display the set humidity for 3 seconds, followed by the ambient temperature from the external sensor. Within one minute, the machine will act according to the instructions from the server, recording the temperature and humidity changes every 2 seconds. After one minute, it will start calculating the derivative (rate of change) of the temperature and humidity changes. If the human comfort zone is in a damp and cold environment, the humidifier will stop working and wait for the temperature to rise. If the human comfort zone is in a damp and hot environment, the humidifier will operate at medium mist and medium fan speed. If there is still no improvement after one minute, it will continue to reduce the mist output and fan speed until it stops.

[0213] The local device's temperature and humidity dynamic adjustment function will perform a strategy adjustment every minute. During this stage, adjustments will be made based on the actual achievable state of the environment, and a total of 4 machine adjustments will be performed.

[0214] The machine's self-adjusting strategy is synchronized to the AI ​​server in real time. The AI ​​server focuses on whether to raise the target temperature and humidity in the next round of adjustment, or to wait for the environment to diffuse before adjusting. The ultimate goal is to achieve the temperature set by the user and match the temperature and humidity. If this cannot be achieved, the target temperature is adjusted according to the achievable humidity level.

[0215] Every 5 minutes, the AI ​​server adjusts the target based on the actual situation.

[0216] In one embodiment, the heating device is a heater. Users can set the heating temperature via an app or by setting the desired ambient temperature (i.e., the set temperature value) on the device itself. The temperature and humidity detection device continuously monitors the ambient temperature and humidity data and sends the status to the heater in real time. In offline mode, the heater has a preset cold start algorithm, which was obtained by the research institute in combination with human comfort research and matches the appropriate temperature and humidity according to human comfort. When the temperature does not reach the set target temperature, the heater operates at full power. If the heater cannot reach the target temperature for a long time, the humidifier will adjust according to comfort. When the temperature reaches or exceeds the target temperature, the heater will dynamically control the device to keep the temperature within ±0.5℃.

[0217] When connected to the internet, the AI ​​platform performs calculations based on the collected data, including: 1. Temperature and humidity information from the internal sensors of the heater / humidifier; 2. Temperature and humidity information from external sensors; 3. Temperature and humidity of the current area; and 4. User habits.

[0218] After the user sets the heating temperature, such as 25℃, the system calculates the user's desired temperature and the target humidity value. It then sends the high-power operation mode and the calculated target temperature X℃ to the heater. Next, it determines whether the current temperature is within the human comfort range. If the humidity is too high, the humidifier is turned on; if the humidity is below 40%, the maximum airflow and maximum humidification are activated; if it is within the comfort range, the medium fan speed and humidification level 2 are activated.

[0219] The AI ​​sends out the target temperature and humidity level, which are not user-defined values, but rather values ​​learned by the system through matching historical user behavior and achievable environmental conditions. For example, if the user sets 25℃, and the current ambient temperature is low, the system will set the target temperature to the maximum of 35℃ and operate at maximum power, then continuously adjust the target temperature. At this time, the machine's buzzer will sound, and the digital display will show the temperature.

[0220] After receiving the command, the heater will display the set temperature for 3 seconds, followed by the ambient temperature from the external sensor. Within one minute, the machine will act according to the instructions from the server, recording the temperature and humidity changes from the temperature and humidity sensors every 2 seconds. After one minute, it will start calculating the derivative (rate of change) of the temperature and humidity changes. If the human comfort zone is dry and cold at this time, the heater will continue to operate at high power without waiting for the humidity to rise; if the human comfort zone is dry and hot at this time, the heater will operate at medium power and wait for the humidity to rise.

[0221] The local device's temperature and humidity dynamic adjustment function will perform a strategy adjustment every minute. During this stage, adjustments will be made based on the actual achievable state of the environment, and a total of 4 machine adjustments will be performed.

[0222] The machine's self-adjusting strategy is synchronized to the AI ​​server in real time. The AI ​​server focuses on whether to raise the target temperature and humidity in the next round of adjustment, or to wait for the environment to diffuse before adjusting. The ultimate goal is to achieve the temperature set by the user and match the temperature and humidity. If this cannot be achieved, the target temperature is adjusted according to the achievable humidity level.

[0223] Every 5 minutes, the AI ​​server adjusts the target based on the actual situation.

[0224] The embodiments of this application connect a heater, a humidifier, and a temperature and humidity sensor. After the adaptive function is enabled and the learned algorithm is activated, it will prioritize the use of a cold start algorithm based on human comfort to adjust the device. Since heating will result in the loss of humidity, the ambient humidity will be dynamically adjusted based on the ambient temperature that the heater can reach.

[0225] By leveraging big data, we can calculate and learn from user data who own both heaters and humidifiers. Based on user adjustments and learning, we can derive temperature and humidity change curves after user behavior adjustments. Then, through model analysis, we can derive the optimal curve. In human factors engineering, we can use temperature and humidity reported by sensors to achieve personalized user data changes and self-adjustment.

[0226] After the AI ​​platform calculates the achievable temperature and humidity of the environment, it generates a predictable temperature and humidity relationship value. The local device then proactively adjusts its operating status based on the target value and the actual operating status, achieving regional autonomy even offline. This enables more accurate monitoring of ambient temperature and humidity, reliable temperature and humidity linkage, and fully leverages big data, collective intelligence, and personalized solutions. The adaptive algorithm model can be trained and corrected in real time. It has low dependence on device models, making it easy to deploy and implement. Distributed computing ensures high reliability and high performance, avoiding poor user experience.

[0227] In one embodiment, the above only describes the control logic of the heating device. Taking a humidifier as an example, the humidity control device, in an offline state, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the control flow of the humidifier is as follows:

[0228] Step 802: Receive the set humidity value;

[0229] Step 804: The temperature and humidity detection device collects the humidity value in the environment;

[0230] Step 806: Determine if the humidity value is less than the set humidity value. If the determination result is yes, proceed to step 808. If the determination result is no, the process ends.

[0231] Step 808, Humidifier dynamic adjustment.

[0232] Among them, the humidity setting value is the desired ambient humidity, which users can set through the humidification APP or through the device itself; the sensor continuously monitors the ambient temperature and humidity data and sends the status to the humidifier in real time; in offline mode, the humidifier has a preset cold start algorithm, which was obtained by the research institute in combination with human comfort research, and matches the appropriate temperature and humidity according to human comfort.

[0233] If the ambient temperature remains unchanged at 17℃, the humidifier will adjust the humidity level according to comfort levels to maintain a comfortable range for the human body. During this process, the humidifier dynamically adjusts the target humidity level through settings and fan speed.

[0234] like Figure 9 As shown, the present invention provides a control device 900 for a temperature regulation device, comprising: a first acquisition unit 902 for acquiring the ambient temperature and ambient humidity of the environment in which the temperature regulation device is located; a first determination unit 904 for determining the rate of change of the ambient temperature when the ambient temperature reaches the target temperature value of the first stage; a second determination unit 906 for determining the rate of change of the ambient humidity when the ambient humidity reaches the target humidity value of the first stage; and a first control unit 908 for determining the operating strategy of the temperature regulation device in the second stage based on the comparison result of the rate of change of temperature and the rate of change of humidity.

[0235] The embodiments of this application propose a control device. A temperature regulation device with this control device can quickly adjust environmental parameters and predict the next stage of operation strategy during the adjustment process. This improves the matching degree between environmental humidity and environmental temperature during the adjustment to the target temperature and humidity values, thereby improving the user's comfort experience during the adjustment process.

[0236] Specifically, by determining the rates of temperature and humidity change in the first stage, the comparison of these rates allows for the assessment of the temperature and humidity changes during that stage. This helps identify whether the temperature or humidity adjustment is too rapid, and based on this, the operating strategy for the second stage is determined. Adjusting the operating strategy improves the matching between temperature and humidity during the adjustment process, reducing the likelihood of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0237] In the above embodiment, the first control unit 908 is specifically used to: determine that the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, and in the second stage, send the target temperature value of the second stage after a first delay; and / or determine that the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, and in the second stage, lower the operating level of the temperature regulating device.

[0238] In this embodiment, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively fast. In this case, the target temperature value of the second stage is sent after a first delay in the second stage, so as to delay the operation of the temperature regulation device, thereby creating a control effect of waiting for the humidity to rise.

[0239] Furthermore, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively rapid. In this case, the operating level of the temperature control device is lowered in the second stage to reduce the influence of the temperature control device on the ambient temperature, thereby slowing down the rate of increase in ambient temperature and creating a control effect of waiting for the humidity to rise.

[0240] Through the above embodiments, the degree of mismatch between ambient humidity and ambient temperature can be reduced in the second stage, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0241] In one embodiment, the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change is related to the first duration. Specifically, the larger the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change, the longer the first duration; conversely, the smaller the difference between the rate of temperature change and the rate of humidity change, the shorter the first duration.

[0242] In any of the above embodiments, the first control unit 908 is specifically used to: determine that the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, and in the second stage, increase the operating level of the temperature regulation device.

[0243] In this embodiment, when the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be slow. In this case, the operating level of the temperature regulating device is increased in the second stage to enhance the influence of the temperature regulating device on the ambient temperature, thereby increasing the rate of increase of the ambient temperature and creating a control effect of waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0244] In one embodiment, the operating levels of the temperature regulating device can be predefined so that in the first stage, the temperature regulating device is controlled to operate at the default operating level, and in the second stage, the operating level is adjusted up or down based on the default operating level.

[0245] In any of the above embodiments, the first determining unit 904 is specifically used to: determine the temperature change value of the ambient temperature and the second duration corresponding to the temperature change value in the first stage; and determine the temperature change rate based on the temperature change value and the second duration.

[0246] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of temperature change is given. The temperature change value of the ambient temperature can be understood as the difference between the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the second duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient temperature to change from the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of temperature change can be understood as the absolute ratio of the temperature change value to the second duration.

[0247] In any of the above embodiments, the second determining unit 906 is specifically used to: determine the humidity change value of the ambient humidity and the third duration corresponding to the humidity change value in the first stage; and determine the humidity change rate based on the humidity change value and the third duration.

[0248] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of change of humidity is given. The change value of ambient humidity can be understood as the difference between the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the third duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient humidity to change from the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of change of humidity can be understood as the absolute ratio of the change value of humidity to the third duration.

[0249] In any of the above embodiments, the first acquisition unit 902 is specifically used to: receive a set temperature value and a set humidity value; and determine a first stage and a second stage based on the ambient temperature, ambient humidity, set temperature value, and set humidity value.

[0250] In this embodiment, a possible method for determining the first stage and the second stage is given. Specifically, the temperature difference required to adjust from the ambient temperature to the set temperature value can be determined based on the ambient temperature and the set temperature value, and multiple stages can be obtained based on the temperature difference.

[0251] Similarly, the humidity difference required to adjust from the ambient humidity to the set humidity value can be determined based on the ambient humidity and the set humidity value, and the target humidity value for each stage can be determined based on the number of stages obtained.

[0252] In one embodiment, to ensure a comfortable user experience, the target humidity value and target temperature value for each stage are matched and conform to the temperature and humidity requirements within the human comfort range.

[0253] In any of the above embodiments, the first control unit 908 is further configured to: determine the human body's perceived comfort level based on the ambient temperature and ambient humidity; if the human body's perceived comfort level is dry and cold or humid and hot, in the second stage, control the temperature regulating device to operate at the operating level of the first stage; if the human body's perceived comfort level is dry and hot, in the second stage, delay sending the target temperature value of the second stage for a first duration; and / or in the second stage, lower the operating level of the temperature regulating device; if the human body's perceived comfort level is humid and cold, in the second stage, raise the operating level of the temperature regulating device.

[0254] In this embodiment, a control strategy for the temperature regulation device is given in dry-cold, humid-hot, dry-hot, and humid-cold scenarios. In dry-cold or humid-hot scenarios, the device maintains the operating level of the first stage to keep the temperature adjustment speed up. At this time, it does not wait for the humidity to rise to ensure the user's need for a warm environment and reduce the time the user spends in a cold environment or a humid-hot environment.

[0255] In the case of dry heat, in the second stage, the target temperature value for the second stage is sent after a first delay; and / or in the second stage, the operating level of the temperature regulation device is lowered to wait for the humidity to rise, thereby ensuring the matching degree of temperature and humidity.

[0256] In any of the above embodiments, the first control unit 908 is further configured to: obtain the current season; and control the temperature regulation device to operate at the operating level of the first stage based on the current season being winter.

[0257] In this embodiment, the current season is obtained. If the current season is winter, the user's temperature needs are prioritized. Specifically, the system is operated at the operating level of the first stage to ensure a rapid increase in ambient temperature.

[0258] In one embodiment, when the current season is winter, the temperature control device operates at the first stage operating level until the ambient temperature rises to above 18 degrees Celsius.

[0259] In one embodiment, to ensure the user's temperature needs are met, the heating level of the temperature regulating device is increased during the second stage, assuming the current season is winter.

This improves the matching degree between environmental humidity and environmental temperature during the adjustment to the target temperature and humidity values, thereby improving the user's comfort experience during the adjustment process.

[0262] Specifically, by determining the rates of temperature and humidity change in the first stage, the comparison of these rates allows for the assessment of the temperature and humidity changes during that stage. This helps identify whether the temperature or humidity adjustment is too rapid, and based on this, the operating strategy for the second stage is determined. Adjusting the operating strategy improves the matching between temperature and humidity during the adjustment process, reducing the likelihood of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0263] In the above embodiment, the second control unit 1008 is specifically used to: determine that the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, and in the second stage, increase the operating level of the humidity regulating device; determine that the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, and in the second stage, decrease the operating level of the humidity regulating device.

[0264] In this embodiment, if the rate of temperature change is greater than or equal to the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be relatively fast. In this case, the operating level of the humidity control device is increased in the second stage to enhance the influence of the humidity control device on the ambient humidity and the matching degree between temperature and humidity, thereby reducing the probability of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, and thus ensuring user comfort.

[0265] Furthermore, if the rate of temperature change is less than the rate of humidity change, the temperature change is considered to be slow. In this case, the operating level of the humidity control device is lowered in the second stage to reduce the influence of the humidity control device on the ambient humidity, thereby slowing down the rate of increase in ambient humidity and creating a control effect of waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0266] Through the above embodiments, the degree of mismatch between ambient humidity and ambient temperature can be reduced in the second stage, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0267] In the above embodiment, the third determining unit 1004 is specifically used to: determine the temperature change value of the ambient temperature and the second duration corresponding to the temperature change value in the first stage; and determine the temperature change rate based on the temperature change value and the second duration.

[0268] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of temperature change is given. The temperature change value of the ambient temperature can be understood as the difference between the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the second duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient temperature to change from the ambient temperature detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target temperature value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of temperature change can be understood as the absolute ratio of the temperature change value to the second duration.

[0269] In any of the above embodiments, the fourth determining unit 1006 is specifically used to: determine the humidity change value of the ambient humidity and the third duration corresponding to the humidity change value in the first stage; and determine the humidity change rate based on the humidity change value and the third duration.

[0270] In this embodiment, a scheme for determining the rate of change of humidity is given. The change value of ambient humidity can be understood as the difference between the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage and the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. Correspondingly, the third duration can be understood as the time taken for the ambient humidity to change from the ambient humidity detected at the beginning of the first stage to the target humidity value corresponding to the first stage. The rate of change of humidity can be understood as the absolute ratio of the change value of humidity to the third duration.

[0271] In any of the above embodiments, the second acquisition unit 1002 is further configured to: receive a set temperature value and a set humidity value; and determine a first stage and a second stage based on the ambient temperature, ambient humidity, set temperature value, and set humidity value.

[0272] In this embodiment, a possible method for determining the first stage and the second stage is given. Specifically, the temperature difference required to adjust from the ambient temperature to the set temperature value can be determined based on the ambient temperature and the set temperature value, and multiple stages can be obtained based on the temperature difference.

[0273] Similarly, the humidity difference required to adjust from the ambient humidity to the set humidity value can be determined based on the ambient humidity and the set humidity value, and the target humidity value for each stage can be determined based on the number of stages obtained.

[0274] In one embodiment, to ensure a comfortable user experience, the target humidity value and target temperature value for each stage are matched and conform to the temperature and humidity requirements within the human comfort range.

[0275] In any of the above embodiments, the second control unit 1008 is further configured to: determine the human body's perceived comfort level based on the ambient temperature and ambient humidity; when the human body's perceived comfort level is dry and cold or humid and hot, in the second stage, control the humidity regulating device to operate at the operating level of the first stage; when the human body's perceived comfort level is dry and hot, in the second stage, increase the operating level of the humidity regulating device; when the human body's perceived comfort level is humid and cold, in the second stage, decrease the operating level of the humidity regulating device.

[0276] In this embodiment, a control strategy for the temperature regulation device is given in dry-cold, humid-hot, dry-hot, and humid-cold scenarios. In dry-cold or humid-hot scenarios, the device maintains the operating level of the first stage to keep the humidity adjustment speed up, without waiting for the temperature to rise.

[0277] In hot and dry conditions, increase the operating level of the humidity control device to enhance its effect on ambient humidity, thereby improving the humidity level and enhancing the experience of hot and dry environments.

[0278] In damp and cold conditions, lower the operating level of the humidity control device to reduce its impact on the ambient humidity, slow down the rate of humidity change in the environment, and wait for the ambient temperature to rise, thus improving the experience of a damp and cold environment.

This improves the matching degree between environmental humidity and environmental temperature during the adjustment to the target temperature and humidity values, thereby enhancing the user's comfort experience during the adjustment process.

[0285] Specifically, by determining the rates of temperature and humidity change in the first stage, the comparison of these rates allows for the assessment of the temperature and humidity changes during that stage. This helps identify whether the temperature or humidity adjustment is too rapid, and based on this, the operating strategy for the second stage is determined. Adjusting the operating strategy improves the matching between temperature and humidity during the adjustment process, reducing the likelihood of damp cold, damp heat, dry cold, or dry heat, thereby ensuring user comfort.

[0286] In the above embodiments, an environmental parameter sensor is also included, which is used to acquire the ambient temperature and ambient humidity, and send the ambient temperature and ambient humidity to the temperature regulating device and the humidity regulating device.

[0287] In one embodiment, determining the operating strategy of the temperature control device in the second stage based on the comparison result of the temperature change rate and the humidity change rate includes: determining that the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, and in the second stage, delaying the transmission of the target temperature value of the second stage for a first duration; and / or determining that the temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the humidity change rate, and in the second stage, lowering the operating level of the temperature control device.

[0290] In one embodiment, the control device is further configured to: receive a set temperature value and a set humidity value; and determine a first stage and a second stage based on the ambient temperature, ambient humidity, set temperature value, and set humidity value.

[0291] In one embodiment, the control device is further configured to: determine a human body temperature assessment based on ambient temperature and ambient humidity; if the human body temperature assessment is dry and cold or humid and hot, in the second stage, control the temperature regulating device to operate at the operating level of the first stage; if the human body temperature assessment is dry and hot, in the second stage, delay sending the target temperature value of the second stage for a first duration; and / or in the second stage, lower the operating level of the temperature regulating device; if the human body temperature assessment is humid and cold, in the second stage, raise the operating level of the temperature regulating device.

[0293] In one embodiment, the control device is further configured to: obtain the current season; and, based on the current season being winter, control the temperature regulation device to operate at the operating level of the first stage.

[0294] In one embodiment, 1. Set target temperature and target humidity; 2. Divide the current temperature to target temperature range into multiple target temperature and humidity stages; 3. Use the time to reach the first target temperature and humidity as a benchmark to predict the time to reach the second target temperature and humidity; 4. If the temperature rise rate and humidity rise rate are a preset difference, the next stage with a faster rise rate needs to be run at a lower speed to wait for the preset time of the slower rise rate; 5. In winter, it is necessary to prioritize ensuring that the temperature reaches 18°C, and the heater will not wait before 18°C ​​(other environmental requirements should be set accordingly); 6. The current temperature and humidity state is: dry heat (high temperature and low humidity) - next stage temperature equals humidity, dry cold (low temperature and low humidity) - next stage does not wait, humid heat (high temperature and high humidity) - next stage does not wait, humid cold (low temperature and high humidity) - next stage humidity equals temperature.

[0295] In one embodiment, 1. Regardless of whether the humidifier is on or off, it monitors whether the ambient temperature matches the current humidity; 2. It obtains the current temperature, obtains the corresponding humidity based on the current temperature, and adjusts the humidity to the corresponding parameters (e.g., 18℃ corresponds to 40% humidity, 19℃ corresponds to 45%, 20℃ corresponds to 45%, etc.); 3. During the adjustment process, it obtains the current humidity information; 4. If the current environment is dry and hot (high temperature and low humidity), it increases the humidification and turns off or runs the heater at a low speed; if it is dry and cold (low temperature and low humidity), it increases the heater speed and humidification; if it is humid and hot (high temperature and high humidity), it turns off the humidifier for a preset time and then lowers the heater speed; if it is humid and cold (low temperature and high humidity), it turns off the humidifier and increases the heater speed.

[0296] In one embodiment, in stage one, when the temperature or humidity has not reached the target, the heater or humidifier first determines the difference between the current environmental state and the target state and executes different operating levels to quickly reach the target parameters. In stage two, when the temperature or humidity reaches the target temperature or humidity, it activates constant temperature and humidity mode. When the temperature is 1°C higher than the target temperature, it activates medium power; when the temperature is 1°C lower than the target temperature, it activates high power, and so on, keeping the temperature fluctuating within the target temperature range and maintaining it in a comfortable range.

[0297] In one embodiment, 1. Temperature and humidity data are collected over a preset time; 2. The data change type is analyzed; 3. If the data is linear—that is, the temperature and humidity increase at a basically constant value—then the first training model is used for training; 4. If the data is non-linear—that is, the temperature and humidity change with both increases and decreases, such as a sudden temperature change caused by opening a door or window in winter—then the second training model is used for training; 5. The first training model predicts the time required to reach the target parameters based on the current data change trend, thereby adjusting the device speed and time; 6. The second training model adjusts the device operation strategy in real time based on the difference between the current value and the target temperature and humidity; 7. Room information is collected (data from different areas such as bedrooms, living rooms, and dining rooms are classified so that the product runs the corresponding training model in the corresponding room), so that users can experience environmental parameters suitable for their current comfort requirements in any room; 8. In the first training model, if it is detected that the user manually adjusts the target parameter value during operation, the user's identity and parameters are recorded, and the user's preferred target parameters are automatically set the next time the user uses the device (the target parameters can also be set according to room information).
