Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioner technology, and more specifically, to an air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method, an air conditioner aromatherapy switch control device, an air conditioner, and a readable storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, aromatherapy has become popular worldwide. It can soothe the mind, nourish the skin, relax, and reduce stress. Pure plant essential oils contain many polyphenols, which can stimulate the autonomic nervous system, stabilize the endocrine system, and naturally make one feel refreshed and energetic. In addition, setting aromatherapy diffusers on air conditioners to promote the volatilization of aromatherapy through the air conditioning has also become a popular option.

[0003] However, in actual implementation, there is a problem: when the existing aromatherapy diffuser is closed, a lot of volatile aromatherapy remains inside. When the air conditioner is turned on and the air conditioner blows directly on the user, a large amount of accumulated volatile aromatherapy will evaporate directly from the diffuser opening and blow directly on the user, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, embodiments of the present invention provide a method for controlling the air conditioner's aromatherapy switch to prevent the aromatherapy from blowing directly onto the user.

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a method for controlling the air conditioner's aromatherapy switch. The air conditioner is equipped with an aromatherapy component. The method includes: when the air conditioner receives an aromatherapy start command or an aromatherapy stop command, recording the air conditioner's first air outlet speed W1; adjusting the air conditioner's air outlet speed to a second air outlet speed W2, where the second air outlet speed W2 is less than the first air outlet speed W1; and after a first preset time T1 when the aromatherapy component is fully turned on or fully turned off, adjusting the air conditioner's speed back to the first air outlet speed W1.

[0006] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: By installing an aromatherapy component on the air conditioner, and when the aromatherapy component is turned on while the air conditioner is running, the fan speed is reduced, and the fan speed is only adjusted back to the original speed after a first preset time T1 when the air conditioner is fully turned on or off. This reduces the risk of accumulated aromatherapy diffuser dissipating during operation, and also reduces the risk of it dissipating during shutdown. To prevent the aroma diffuser from dissipating, the fan speed will be adjusted back to its original speed only after the first preset time T1 when the fan is completely turned off. This is to prevent the aroma diffuser from blowing directly on the user and to prevent the fan speed from dropping so low that the cooling or heating effect is reduced.

[0007] In one embodiment of the present invention, the aromatherapy component can be controlled to open and close as the air guide plate of the air conditioner rotates. The air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method further includes: when the air conditioner receives an aromatherapy open command or an aromatherapy close command, recording the air outlet angle A1 of the air guide plate; after the aromatherapy component is fully opened or fully closed by the rotation of the air guide plate, controlling the air guide plate to adjust to the air outlet angle A1.

[0008] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: by setting the aromatherapy component and the air conditioner's air guide plate to be linked, the opening and closing of the aromatherapy component can be controlled by the air guide plate without the need for an additional motor; on the other hand, by recording the current air outlet angle of the air guide plate, the air outlet angle is adjusted back to the original angle when the aromatherapy component is fully open or closed, preventing changes in the air outlet angle from causing a decrease in the user experience.

[0009] In one embodiment of the present invention, an aromatherapy component is disposed on an air guide plate. The aromatherapy component includes: an aromatherapy housing, on which at least one first aromatherapy evaporation port is provided, and the aromatherapy is disposed inside the aromatherapy housing; a rotating member, which is sleeved on the aromatherapy housing, and on which at least one second aromatherapy evaporation port is provided; wherein, when the aromatherapy component is turned on, when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A1, A2), the rotating member and the aromatherapy housing rotate with the air guide plate; when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A2, A3], the rotating member abuts against the air conditioner base and does not rotate, and the aromatherapy housing rotates with the air guide plate, aligning the first aromatherapy evaporation port and the second aromatherapy evaporation port; when the aromatherapy component is turned off, when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of (A4, A3), the rotating member and the aromatherapy housing rotate with the air guide plate; when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A1, A3], the first aromatherapy evaporation port and the second aromatherapy evaporation port are aligned; when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A1, A3], the first aromatherapy evaporation port and the second aromatherapy evaporation port are aligned; when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A1, A3], the second aromatherapy evaporation port and the third ... third aromatherapy evaporation port and the fourth aromatherapy evaporation port are aligned; when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A4, A3], the fifth aromatherapy evaporation port and the sixth aromatherapy evaporation port are aligned; when the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A4, A3 When A4 is in contact with the air conditioner base, the rotating part does not rotate, and the aromatherapy housing rotates with the air guide plate, causing the first aromatherapy evaporation port and the second aromatherapy evaporation port to be misaligned.

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: The aromatherapy component is installed on the air guide plate of the air conditioner base. During the air conditioner's operation, the air guide plate rotates within a certain angle range. This rotation causes the aromatherapy component mounted on the air guide plate to rotate as well. When the rotating part abuts against the air conditioner base, the rotating part stops rotating while the aromatherapy housing continues to rotate. This aligns the first and second aromatherapy evaporation ports of the aromatherapy component when the aromatherapy is on, and when the aromatherapy is off... When closed, the first and second aroma diffuser vents of the aroma diffuser assembly are not aligned. When the first and second aroma diffuser vents are aligned, the aroma diffuser assembly reaches its maximum opening position, and the aroma diffuses out of the air conditioner with the air conditioner's airflow, maximizing the aroma diffusion efficiency.

[0011] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating component includes: a rotating housing, at least one second aroma evaporation port disposed on the rotating housing; and a rotating rod disposed on the rotating housing and extending out of the rotating housing; wherein, when the rotating rod abuts against the air conditioner base, the rotating component does not rotate with the air conditioner base.

[0012] Compared with the existing technology, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is as follows: both the rotating part and the aroma diffuser housing are provided with aroma diffuser vents. The rotating part is sleeved outside the aroma diffuser housing. When the rotating rod abuts against the air conditioner base, the rotating part stops rotating, while the aroma diffuser housing continues to rotate with the rotation of the air guide plate. When the aroma diffuser is turned on, the first aroma diffuser vent and the second aroma diffuser vent of the aroma diffuser assembly are aligned. When the aroma diffuser is turned off, the first aroma diffuser vent and the second aroma diffuser vent of the aroma diffuser assembly are not aligned, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the aroma diffuser to turn on or off.

[0013] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating rod includes: a first abutting surface, which abuts against the air conditioner base when the aromatherapy component is closed and the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A1, A4]; and a second abutting surface, which abuts against the air conditioner base when the aromatherapy component is open and the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A2, A3].

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: During the opening or closing of the aromatherapy diffuser, the diffuser housing and rotating component rotate along with the air guide plate. The rotating component rotates within the air conditioner base. Since the rotating rod rotates to different positions to abut against the air conditioner base during opening and closing, the rotating rod has a first abutting surface and a second abutting surface. When the aromatherapy diffuser is closed and the air guide plate rotates at angles [A1, A4], the first abutting surface is in contact with the air conditioner base, thus facilitating the closing of the aromatherapy component; when the aromatherapy diffuser is open and the air guide plate rotates at angles [A2, A3], the second abutting surface is in contact with the air conditioner base, thus facilitating the opening of the aromatherapy component.

[0015] In one embodiment of the present invention, at least one first aroma diffuser is provided with multiple first aroma diffusers, the distance between adjacent first aroma diffusers is L, and the relative rotation angle between the rotating member and the aroma diffuser housing is nL / 2, where n is a positive integer odd number.

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: Because the distance between adjacent first aroma diffusers is L, the evaporation ports of the first aroma diffusers are set more regularly; n is a positive integer odd number, which allows for… This ensures that the angle of rotation is consistent each time, making it easier to control the opening and closing of the aromatherapy components.

[0017] In one embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes: detecting the open state of the aromatherapy component; when the aromatherapy component is open, recording the opening time of the aromatherapy component; when the opening time is greater than a first preset time T1, controlling the aromatherapy component to close, and recording the closing time of the aromatherapy component; when the closing time of the aromatherapy component is greater than a second preset time T2, controlling the aromatherapy component to open.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is as follows: Since the aromatherapy component will also lead to a high concentration of aromatherapy in the room when it is turned on for a long time, which will reduce the user's experience with aromatherapy, the aromatherapy component can be turned off when the air conditioner is set to be on for a long time, and then turned on again after a certain period of time.

[0019] The present invention also provides an air conditioner aromatherapy switch control device, comprising: an acquisition module for acquiring an aromatherapy start command or receiving an aromatherapy stop command; and a control module for controlling the air outlet speed of the air conditioner; wherein the acquisition module and the control module cooperate to implement the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method as described in any one of the above embodiments.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is as follows: by using the acquisition module and the control module in conjunction, the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method described in any of the above-mentioned methods is realized, thus having all the beneficial effects of the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method in any embodiment of the present invention, which will not be elaborated here.

[0021] The present invention also provides an air conditioner, comprising: a packaged IC and a memory electrically connected to the packaged IC, the memory storing a computer program, the computer program being read and executed by the packaged IC, the air conditioner implementing the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method as described above.

[0022] The air conditioner of this invention implements the steps of the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method of any embodiment of this invention, and therefore has all the beneficial effects of the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method of any embodiment of this invention, which will not be repeated here.

[0023] The present invention also provides a readable storage medium, the readable storage medium including a stored computer program, wherein, when the computer program is run by a processor, it controls the device where the storage medium is located to execute the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method as described above.

[0024] The readable storage medium of this invention implements the steps of the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method as described in any embodiment of this invention, and thus has the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method as described in any embodiment of this invention. The full benefits of the law will not be elaborated here.

[0025] By adopting the technical solution of the present invention, the following technical effects can be achieved: (1) By setting up an aromatherapy component on the air conditioner, and when the aromatherapy component is turned on when the air conditioner is turned on, the fan speed is reduced, and the fan speed is adjusted back to the original speed only after the first preset time T1 when the air conditioner is fully turned on or fully turned off. Since the accumulated aromatherapy will easily dissipate when the air conditioner is turned on, and the aromatherapy will also easily dissipate when the air conditioner is turned off, the fan speed is adjusted back to the original speed only after the first preset time T1 when the air conditioner is fully turned off. This is to prevent the aromatherapy from blowing directly on the user and to prevent the cooling or heating effect from being reduced due to the decrease in fan speed. (2) By setting the aromatherapy component and the air conditioner's air guide plate to be linked, the opening and closing of the aromatherapy component can be controlled by the air guide plate without the need for an additional motor; on the other hand, by recording the current air outlet angle of the air guide plate, the air outlet angle is adjusted back to the original angle when the aromatherapy component is fully opened or closed, to prevent the change in air outlet angle from causing a decrease in the user's experience. (3) Since the aromatherapy component will also lead to a high concentration of aromatherapy in the room when it is turned on for a long time, it will reduce the user's experience of aromatherapy. Therefore, when the air conditioner is set to be turned on for a long time, turn off the aromatherapy component and turn it on again after a certain period of time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0036] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Referring to Figure 1, which is a flowchart of an air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The air conditioner 100 is equipped with an aromatherapy component 200, and the air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method specifically includes: S100, when the air conditioner 100 receives an air freshener turn-on command or an air freshener turn-off command, record the first air outlet speed W1 of the air conditioner 100; S200, the air outlet speed of the air conditioner is adjusted to the second air outlet speed W2, and the second air outlet speed W2 is less than the first air outlet speed W1; S300, after the first preset time T1 when the aromatherapy component 200 is fully turned on or fully turned off, the air conditioner's fan speed is adjusted back to the first air outlet speed W1.

[0038] For example, by installing an aromatherapy unit 200 on an air conditioner, and turning on the aromatherapy unit 200 while the air conditioner is on, reducing the fan speed, and only adjusting the fan speed back to the original speed after a first preset time T1 when the air conditioner is fully on or fully off, the accumulated aromatherapy will easily dissipate when the air conditioner is on, and the aromatherapy will also easily dissipate when the air conditioner is off. Therefore, when the air conditioner is fully off... The fan speed will be adjusted back to the original speed only after the first preset time T1, on the one hand to prevent the aromatherapy from blowing directly on the user; on the other hand, to prevent the cooling or heating effect from being reduced due to the decrease in fan speed.

[0039] Preferably, the first air outlet speed W1 is the air speed set by the user, and the second air outlet speed W2 is the air outlet speed for quiet operation of the air conditioner.

[0040] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2-4, the aromatherapy component 200 can be turned on and off by rotating the air guide plate of the air conditioner. The air conditioner aromatherapy switch control method also includes: when the air conditioner receives an aromatherapy turn-on command or an aromatherapy turn-off command, recording the air outlet angle A1 of the air guide plate; when the aromatherapy component 200 is fully turned on or fully turned off by rotating the air guide plate, controlling the air guide plate to adjust to the air outlet angle A1.

[0041] For example, by setting the aroma diffuser component 200 and the air conditioner's air deflector to be linked, the opening and closing of the aroma diffuser component 200 can be controlled through the air deflector without the need for an additional motor. On the other hand, by recording the current air outlet angle of the air deflector, the air diffuser component 200 is adjusted back to the original air outlet angle after it is fully opened or closed, preventing changes in the air outlet angle from causing a decrease in the user experience.

[0042] Further, referring to Figure 5, the aromatherapy component 200 is fixed to the air guide plate 110, and the aromatherapy component 200 includes: an aromatherapy housing 210, which has at least one first aromatherapy evaporation port 211, and an aromatherapy diffuser 220 disposed inside the aromatherapy housing 210; a rotating member 230, which is sleeved on the aromatherapy housing 210, and has at least one second aromatherapy evaporation port 231; when the aromatherapy component is turned on, when the air guide plate rotates at an angle [A1, A2), the rotating member and the aromatherapy housing rotate with the air guide plate; when the air guide plate rotates at an angle [A2, A3], the rotating member and the aromatherapy housing rotate with the air guide plate. When the air conditioner is closed, the rotating part is in contact with the air conditioner base and does not rotate. The aromatherapy housing rotates with the air guide plate, aligning the first aromatherapy vent and the second aromatherapy vent. When the aromatherapy assembly is closed, the air guide plate rotates at an angle of (A4, A3), and the rotating part and the aromatherapy housing rotate with the air guide plate. When the air guide plate rotates at an angle of [A1, A4], the rotating part is in contact with the air conditioner base and does not rotate. The aromatherapy housing rotates with the air guide plate, causing the first aromatherapy vent and the second aromatherapy vent to become misaligned.

[0043] For example, the aromatherapy component 200 is installed on the air guide plate of the air conditioner base 100. During the air conditioner's operation, the air guide plate 110 rotates within a certain angle range. The rotation of the air guide plate 110 can drive the aromatherapy component 200 installed on the air guide plate 110 to rotate as well. When the rotation reaches the rotating part... When component 200 abuts against the air conditioner base 100, the rotating component 230 stops rotating while the aromatherapy housing 210 continues to rotate. This aligns the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 of the aromatherapy assembly 200 when the aromatherapy is on, and disaligns them when the aromatherapy is off. When the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 are aligned, the aromatherapy assembly 200 reaches its maximum opening position, and the aromatherapy 220 diffuses out of the air conditioner with the airflow, achieving optimal diffusion efficiency.

[0044] Preferably, when the air conditioner is turned on, the air guide plate 110 starts to rotate. When the rotation angle is [A1, A2), the rotating part 230 is not in contact with the air conditioner base 100. The rotating part 230 and the aroma diffuser housing 210 rotate together with the air guide plate 110. When the air guide plate 110 rotates to the angle [A2, A3], the rotating part rotates to the air conditioner base 100 and abuts against it. The rotating part 230 stops rotating, and only the aroma diffuser housing 210 continues to rotate with the rotation of the air guide plate 110. When the air guide plate 110 stops rotating, at least one first aroma diffuser vent 211 on the aroma diffuser housing 210 is aligned with at least one second aroma diffuser vent 231 on the rotating part. The aroma diffuser assembly 200 is turned on, and the aroma diffuser 220 diffuses into the room with the air blown by the air conditioner. Due to the first aroma diffuser vent 211 When aligned with the second aroma diffuser vent 231, the aroma diffuser component 200 reaches its maximum opening range, and the aroma diffuser 220 achieves the best diffusion efficiency.

[0045] Preferably, when the air conditioner is turned off, the rotating component of the air guide plate 110 rotates together with the aroma diffuser housing 210 when the rotation angle is (A4, A3]. When the air guide plate 110 rotates to the angle [A1, A4], the rotating component 230 abuts against the air conditioner base 100. At this time, the rotating component 230 no longer rotates with the air guide plate 110, and only the aroma diffuser housing 210 rotates with the air guide plate 110, causing the first aroma diffuser vent 211 and the second aroma diffuser vent 231 to be misaligned. The aroma diffuser assembly 200 closes when the air conditioner is turned off.

[0046] Preferably, when the aromatherapy assembly 200 is turned on, the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 are not aligned. When the air guide plate 110 rotates at an angle of [0°, 98°), the rotating component 230 and the aromatherapy housing 210 rotate with the air guide plate 110. When the air guide plate 110 rotates at an angle of [98°, 110°], the rotating component 230 abuts against the air conditioner base 100 and does not rotate, while the aromatherapy housing 210 rotates with the air guide plate 110. When the aromatherapy assembly 200 is turned off, the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 are aligned. When the air guide plate 110 rotates at an angle of (110°, 12°), the rotating component 230 and the aromatherapy housing 210 rotate with the air guide plate 110. When the air guide plate 110 rotates at an angle of [0°, 12°], the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 are aligned. At this time, the rotating part 230 abuts against the air conditioner base 100 and does not rotate, while the aromatherapy housing 210 rotates with the air guide plate 110.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present invention, the rotating member 230 includes: a rotating housing 232, at least one The second aroma diffuser vent 231 is located in the rotating housing 232; the rotating rod 233 is located in the rotating housing 232 and extends out of the rotating housing 232; wherein, when the rotating rod 233 abuts against the air conditioner base 100, the rotating component 230 does not rotate with the air conditioner base 100.

[0048] Preferably, when the aromatherapy diffuser is turned on, the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 of the aromatherapy component 200 are aligned, and when the aromatherapy diffuser is turned off, the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 of the aromatherapy component 200 are not aligned. Therefore, by rotating the housing 232 and the aromatherapy housing 210, the alignment or misalignment between the first aromatherapy vent 211 and the second aromatherapy vent 231 can be controlled, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the aromatherapy component 200.

[0049] Preferably, the rotating component 230 consists of two parts: a rotating rod 233 and a rotating housing 232. The rotating rod 233 abuts against the air conditioner base 100 to control the rotating housing 232 to stop rotating. The rotating housing 232 is provided with at least one second aroma evaporation port 231 and is located outside the aroma evaporation housing 210. When the rotating housing 232 stops rotating while the aroma evaporation housing 210 continues to rotate a certain distance, the first aroma evaporation port 211 can be aligned with the second port 231.

[0050] Preferably, during the rotation of the rotating component 230 with the air guide plate 110, the rotating rod 233 of the rotating component 230 rotates between the air conditioner base 100. When the rotating rod 233 abuts against the air conditioner base 100, the rotating housing 232 is fixed by the rotating rod 233, and the rotating housing 232 no longer rotates with the air guide plate 110. The aromatherapy housing 210 continues to rotate, controlling the relative position between the first aromatherapy evaporation port 211 and the second aromatherapy evaporation port 231, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the aromatherapy component 200.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present invention, the rotating housing 232 and the rotating rod 233 are integrally formed.

[0052] Preferably, the rotating rod 233 and the rotating housing 232 are integrally formed, making the rotating component 230 a whole. When the rotating rod 233 abuts against the air conditioner base 100, the rotating housing 232 immediately stops rotating, which not only simplifies the manufacturing process, but also makes the rotating component 230 perform better during use.

[0053] Preferably, since the rotating housing 232 and the rotating rod 233 are integrally formed, the rotating housing 232 can stop rotating in time when the rotating rod 233 abuts against the air conditioner base 100. This avoids the situation where, when the rotating rod 233 and the rotating housing 232 are not integrally formed, the rotating housing 232 continues to rotate even when the rotating rod 233 abuts against the air conditioner base 100, resulting in the first aroma evaporation port 211 and the second aroma evaporation port 231 not being completely aligned, and the aroma evaporation component 200 not reaching its maximum opening width, thus affecting the evaporation efficiency of the aroma 220.

[0054] Preferably, the materials for the rotating rod 233 and the rotating housing 232 can be metal, resin, or other materials with specific properties. The material has a certain hardness and is not easily deformed or damaged, so that the rotating part 230 will not be deformed and damaged when it comes into contact with the air conditioner base 100.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, the rotating rod 233 includes: a first abutting plane, which is in contact with the air conditioner base 100 when the aromatherapy component 200 is closed and the air guide plate 110 is rotated at an angle of [A1, A4]; and a second abutting plane, which is in contact with the air conditioner base 100 when the aromatherapy component 200 is open and the air guide plate 110 is rotated at an angle of [A2, A3].

[0056] Preferably, during the opening or closing of the aromatherapy component 200, the rotating rod 233 moves within the air conditioner base 100. Due to different rotation angles, the rotating rod 233 rotates to different positions on the air conditioner base 100, and the rotating rod 233 also abuts against the air conditioner base 100 at different positions.

[0057] Preferably, a first abutting plane and a second abutting plane are provided on the rotating rod 233, so that the rotating rod can produce a good abutting effect with the air conditioner base 100 at any abutting position, and the rotating rod is not easily damaged.

[0058] Preferably, when the aromatherapy diffuser is off, and the air guide plate 110 rotates at an angle of [A1, A4], the first abutting plane is in contact with the air conditioner base 100, and the aromatherapy diffuser housing 210 continues to rotate so that the first aromatherapy evaporation port 211 is not aligned with the second aromatherapy evaporation port 231; when the aromatherapy diffuser is on, and the air guide plate 110 rotates at an angle of [A2, A3], the second abutting plane is in contact with the air conditioner base 100, and the aromatherapy diffuser housing 210 continues to rotate so that the first aromatherapy evaporation port 211 is aligned with the second aromatherapy evaporation port 231.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present invention, the aromatherapy housing 210 includes: an aromatherapy container 212, and an aromatherapy diffuser. 220 is disposed within the aroma diffuser 212, and at least one first aroma diffuser vent 211 is disposed within the aroma diffuser 212; a housing base 213 is connected to the aroma diffuser 212, and a rotating mounting position is provided between the housing base 213 and the aroma diffuser 212.
