[0049] Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 . An embodiment of the present application provides a purification device 100 . The purification device 100 includes a main body 10 , a disinfection component 11 , and a purification component (not shown).

[0050] Among them, the main body 10 has a flow space, and an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102 connected to the flow space. External air can enter the flow space from the air inlet 101 and then be discharged through the air outlet 102. The disinfection component 11 is arranged in the flow space, and is connected between the air outlet 102 and the flow space, and the disinfection component 11 can release gas with a disinfection function. In this way, the airflow flowing in the main body 10 will drive the disinfection gas to be discharged from the air outlet 102 to the outside world to achieve a disinfection effect on the external environment. The purification component is arranged in the flow space, and is connected between the air inlet 101 and the flow space, and the purification component can purify the external air entering the main body 10 from the air inlet 101. In this way, the purification component can remove foreign matter and odor carried by the external air itself, and the purified air will drive the disinfection gas released by the disinfection component 11 to be discharged from the air outlet 102 to the outside world.

[0051] It is understandable that the disinfectant gas will mix with the outside air after being discharged from the main body 10, and the mixed air will enter the main body 10 again from the air inlet 101. In this way, the purification component can further remove the odor of the disinfectant gas in the mixed air, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the external environment, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0052] It should be noted that, according to the different functions of the disinfection component 11 and the purification component, the purification device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application has two different working states, namely, the disinfection state and the purification state. Specifically, when the purification device 100 is in the disinfection state, the disinfection component 11 operates and can release gas with a disinfection function, and the disinfection gas can be discharged to the outside from the air outlet 102 to achieve a disinfection effect on the external environment. When the purification device 100 is in the purification state, the purification component operates and can purify the outside air entering the main body 10 from the air inlet 101 to remove foreign matter and odor carried by the outside air itself, as well as the odor of the disinfection gas.

[0053] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 2 and 3, the disinfection component 11 includes a liquid storage component 111, an electrolytic component 112 and an atomization component 113. The liquid storage component 111 has a liquid storage chamber 1111 and an atomization channel 1112 separated from each other, an air inlet 1113 and an air outlet 1114 connected to the atomization channel 1112, and a connecting port connected between the liquid storage chamber 1111 and the atomization channel 1112, the air inlet 1113 is connected to the flow space, and the air outlet 1114 is connected to the air outlet 102.

[0054] It is understandable that the airflow entering the flow space from the air inlet 101 will pass through the air inlet 1113 , the atomization channel 1112 and the air outlet 1114 , and finally be discharged to the outside from the air outlet 102 .

[0055] The liquid storage chamber 1111 is used to store the solution to be electrolyzed. The electrolytic component 112 and the atomizing component 113 are both connected to the liquid storage chamber 1111. The electrolytic component 112 is used to electrolyze the solution to be electrolyzed to form a disinfectant solution. The atomizing component 113 is used to atomize the disinfectant solution to form a disinfectant gas.

[0056] It can be understood that when the purification equipment 100 is in a disinfection state, the electrolytic element 112 will perform an electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed so that the solution to be electrolyzed is electrolyzed to form a disinfection solution, and the electrolytic element 112 needs to perform an electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed for a first preset time so that the disinfection solution has sufficient capacity or concentration to achieve a sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0057] Furthermore, after the electrolytic element 112 continues the electrolysis operation on the electrolytic solution for the first preset time, the atomizing element 113 will atomize the disinfectant solution, and the atomized disinfectant solution will flow from the liquid storage chamber 1111 into the atomizing channel 1112 through the connecting port, and driven by the airflow flowing in the atomizing channel 1112, it will flow through the air outlet 1114 and the air outlet 102 and be discharged to the outside to achieve a disinfection effect on the external environment.

[0058] It should be noted that the specific value range of the first preset time is not limited. The first preset time for the electrolytic element 112 to perform the electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed is affected by many factors, such as: the concentration of the active ingredient in the solution to be electrolyzed, the power of the electrolytic element 112, etc. In the present application, the first preset time satisfies the condition: 3min (minute) ≤ first preset time ≤ 5min, preferably, the first preset time is 4min.

[0059] The specific value range of the first preset time is obtained through experimental tests, and the parameters, steps, etc. related to the experimental tests for the specific value range of the preset time are conventional technical means for those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0060] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the purification component has a circulation space (not shown), and an air inlet (not shown) and an air outlet (not shown) connected to the circulation space, the air inlet is connected to the air inlet 101, the air outlet is connected to the flow space, and the side of the purification component facing the circulation space forms a dust accumulation surface extending in a curved surface. The purification component is constructed to form an electric field in the circulation space, and the dust particles entering the circulation space from the air inlet are charged under the action of the electric field and then adsorbed onto the dust accumulation surface.

[0061] It is understandable that when the purification device 100 is in the purification state, the outside air enters the circulation space from the air inlet 101 and the air inlet, and an electric field is formed in the circulation space to adsorb foreign matter in the outside air to the dust accumulation surface, thereby removing foreign matter and odor carried by the outside air. The purified airflow flows into the flow space through the exhaust port, then flows through the disinfection component 11 and is discharged to the outside from the air outlet 102.

[0062] Specifically, to form an electric field in the circulation space, one part of the purification component can be energized, and the other part can be connected to electricity or energized with another voltage, so that a voltage difference is formed between the two parts of the purification component, thereby forming a relative positive pole and a relative negative pole, and an electric field can be formed between the relative positive pole and the relative negative pole.

[0063] In some embodiments, not shown in the figure, the purification device also includes a display, and the display is used to display the capacity of the solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage chamber.

[0064] In some embodiments, not shown in the figure, the purification device further includes a timer, and the timer is used to record the time for the electrolytic component to perform the electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed.

[0065] The embodiment of the present application also provides an air conditioner, which is not shown in the figure. The air conditioner includes a body and a purification device as described in the above embodiment. The body has an installation space, and an inlet and an outlet that are both connected to the installation space. The purification device is connected to the installation space, and the air inlet is connected to the inlet, and the air outlet is connected to the installation space.

[0066] It is understandable that during the operation of the air conditioner, the airflow enters the purification device from the inlet and the air inlet, and the airflow entering the purification device will enter the circulation space from the air inlet. An electric field is formed in the circulation space to adsorb foreign matter in the airflow to the dust accumulation surface, thereby removing foreign matter and odors carried by the outside air. The purified airflow flows into the flow space through the exhaust port, then flows through the disinfection component and is discharged from the air outlet to the installation space. The airflow entering the installation space will be cooled or heated under the action of other equipment, and finally discharged to the outside from the outlet. In this way, the purification device can purify the airflow flowing into the air conditioner so that the cooling or heating gas discharged from the air conditioner is clean and odorless.

[0067] Referring to FIG. 4 , the present application embodiment further provides a control method for the purification device 100 in the above embodiment, comprising:

[0068] S10: Detect whether there is a solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage element 111.

[0069] S20: Controlling the purification device 100 to switch to a corresponding working mode according to the detection result.

[0070] It is understandable that, according to the different functions of the disinfection component 11 and the purification component, the purification device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application has two different working states, namely, the disinfection state and the purification state. Specifically, when the purification device 100 is in the disinfection state, the disinfection component 11 operates and can release gas with a disinfection function, and the disinfection gas can be discharged to the outside from the air outlet 102 to achieve a disinfection effect on the external environment. When the purification device 100 is in the purification state, the purification component operates and can purify the outside air entering the main body 10 from the air inlet 101 to remove foreign matter and odor carried by the outside air itself, as well as the odor of the disinfection gas.

[0071] By detecting whether there is a solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage part 111, it is determined whether the disinfection component 11 can operate normally and generate disinfection gas using the solution to be electrolyzed, thereby correspondingly determining whether the purification equipment 100 can start the disinfection state.

[0072] Specifically, when the test results determine that there is a solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage part 111, it means that the disinfection component 11 can operate normally and can use the solution to be electrolyzed to generate disinfection gas, and the purification device 100 can turn on the disinfection state. Correspondingly, when the test results determine that there is no solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage part 111, it means that the disinfection component 11 cannot operate normally, and cannot use the solution to be electrolyzed to generate disinfection gas, and the purification device 100 cannot turn on the disinfection state. In the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, if the purification device 100 cannot turn on the disinfection state, it is necessary to start the purification state when the purification device 100 is running. If the purification device 100 can turn on the disinfection state, it is necessary to start the disinfection state first when the purification device 100 is running, and then start the purification state after the external environment is disinfected. In this way, foreign matter and odor carried by the external air itself, as well as the odor of the disinfection gas, can be removed, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the external environment.

[0073] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 5 , the step of controlling switching of different working modes according to the detection result includes:

[0074] S201: Determine that there is a solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage unit 111, and control the purification device 100 to switch to a disinfection mode.

[0075] It is understandable that if the solution to be electrolyzed is determined to exist in the liquid storage part 111, it means that the disinfection component 11 can operate normally and can generate disinfection gas using the solution to be electrolyzed. Therefore, the purification device 100 is controlled to start the disinfection state to achieve disinfection effect on the external environment.

[0076] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 6 , the step of controlling the purification device 100 to switch to the disinfection mode includes:

[0077] S2011: Control the electrolytic element 112 to operate so as to electrolyze the solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage element 111, and obtain the first working time of the electrolytic element 112 in real time.

[0078] S2012: Determine that the first working time is equal to the first preset time, control the electrolysis element 112 to close, and control the atomization element 113 to atomize the electrolyzed solution.

[0079] It can be understood that when the electrolytic element 112 performs an electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed, the solution to be electrolyzed can be electrolyzed to form a disinfectant solution. By controlling the electrolytic element 112 to perform an electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed for a first preset time, the disinfectant solution can have a sufficient capacity or concentration to achieve a sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0080] Furthermore, after the electrolytic element 112 performs an electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed for a first preset time, it is necessary to control the electrolytic element to be closed and control the atomizing element 113 to perform an atomizing operation on the disinfecting solution, so that the disinfecting solution is atomized by the atomizing element 113 to form a disinfecting gas, thereby facilitating the disinfecting gas to flow from the liquid storage chamber 1111 into the atomizing channel 1112 through the connecting port, and driven by the airflow flowing in the atomizing channel 1112, it flows through the air outlet 1114 and the air outlet 102 and is discharged to the outside to achieve a disinfection effect on the external environment.

[0081] It should be noted that the specific value range of the first preset time is not limited. The first preset time for the electrolytic element 112 to perform the electrolysis operation on the solution to be electrolyzed is affected by many factors, such as: the concentration of the active ingredient in the solution to be electrolyzed, the power of the electrolytic element 112, etc. In the present application, the first preset time satisfies the condition: 3min (minute) ≤ first preset time ≤ 5min, preferably, the first preset time is 4min.

[0082] The specific value range of the first preset time is obtained through experimental tests, and the parameters, steps, etc. related to the experimental tests for the specific value range of the preset time are conventional technical means for those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0083] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 , after the step of controlling the atomizing element 113 to atomize the electrolyzed solution, the control method further includes:

[0084] S2013: Acquire the second working time of the atomizer 113 in real time.

[0085] S2014: Determine that the second working time is equal to the second preset time, control the atomizing element 113 to be turned off, and control the purification device 100 to switch to the purification mode.

[0086] It can be understood that by controlling the atomizer 113 to perform electrolysis operation on the disinfection solution for a second preset time, it is ensured that the atomizer 113 atomizes a sufficient and appropriate amount of disinfection gas, through which the external environment can be better disinfected, while avoiding excessive production of these disinfection gases, which may lead to waste of resources and harmful effects on people in the environment.

[0087] Furthermore, after the atomizer 113 performs the electrolysis operation on the disinfection solution for a second preset time, it is necessary to control the atomizer 113 to be turned off and control the purification device 100 to switch to the purification mode, so as to remove foreign matter and odor carried by the outside air itself, as well as the odor of the disinfection gas through the purification component, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the external environment.

[0088] It should be noted that the specific value range of the second preset time is not limited. The second preset time for the atomizer 113 to atomize the disinfectant solution is affected by many factors, such as: the concentration of the active ingredient in the disinfectant solution, the power of the atomizer 113, etc. In the present application, the second preset time satisfies the condition: 5min (minute) ≤ second preset time ≤ 10min, preferably, the second preset time is 7min.

[0089] The specific value range of the second preset time is obtained through experimental tests, and the parameters, steps, etc. related to the experimental tests for the specific value range of the preset time are conventional technical means for those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0090] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 , the step of controlling the purification device 100 to switch to the purification mode includes:

[0091] S2015: Control the operation of the purification component and detect the air quality index of the air entering the purification component in real time.

[0092] S2016: If it is determined that the air quality index of the air entering the purification component is not greater than a preset air quality index, the purification component is controlled to be closed.

[0093] It can be understood that in the present application, the preset air quality index can be understood as that when the air meets the preset air quality index, the air contains fewer substances harmful to the human body and has no significant effect on human health.

[0094] Specifically, please refer to the pollutant concentration limit values ​​of the daily average level I, II, III, IV and V standards in the national air quality standards. Among them, level I represents that the air quality is assessed as excellent and has no impact on human health; level II represents that the air quality is assessed as good and has no significant impact on human health; level III represents mild pollution, and healthy people experience irritation symptoms; level IV represents moderate pollution, and healthy people generally experience irritation symptoms; level V represents severe pollution, and healthy people experience severe irritation symptoms. In this way, the preset air quality index in this application can correspond to level II and above.

[0095] During the operation of the purification component, the air quality index of the air entering the purification component is detected in real time, so that when the outside air meets the preset air quality index, the purification component can be controlled to be closed in time, thereby avoiding ineffective work of the purification component and effectively saving resources.

[0096] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 8 , the step of controlling switching to different working modes according to the detection result further includes:

[0097] S202: Determine that there is no solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage member 111, and control the purification device 100 to switch to the purification mode.

[0098] It is understandable that when it is determined that there is no solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage part 111, it means that the disinfection component 11 cannot operate normally, and cannot use the solution to be electrolyzed to generate disinfection gas, and the purification device 100 cannot start the disinfection state. In this way, by directly controlling the purification device 100 to switch to the purification mode, foreign matter and odor in the external air can be removed through the purification component, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the external environment.

[0099] In some embodiments, not shown in the figure, after determining that there is no solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage member 111, the control method further includes:

[0100] S203: Control the display to send a reminder signal that the solution to be electrolyzed needs to be added.

[0101] It is understandable that after determining that there is no solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage part 111, the disinfection component 11 cannot operate normally. Therefore, it is necessary to control the control display to send a reminder signal that the solution to be electrolyzed needs to be added to remind the user that the solution to be electrolyzed needs to be added to the liquid storage chamber 1111 to ensure the normal operation of the disinfection component 11, so that the purification equipment 100 can start the disinfection state to disinfect the external environment.

[0102] It should be noted that the specific operation mode of the display is not limited. For example, when it is determined that there is no solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage part 111, the display will emit red light and issue a specific voice broadcast to attract the user's attention, thereby playing a reminder role.

[0103] In some embodiments, not shown in the figure, after the step of obtaining the second working time of the atomizer 113 in real time, the control method further includes:

[0104] S2017: If it is determined that the first working time is less than the first preset time, return to step S202 and continue with subsequent steps.

[0105] It is understandable that when it is determined that the first working time is less than the first preset time, it means that the solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage chamber 1111 has been electrolyzed, and the electrolytic element 112 cannot continue to work. In this case, the solution to be electrolyzed does not form a disinfectant solution with sufficient capacity or concentration, and the sterilization effect cannot be achieved.

[0106] Therefore, after determining that the first working time is less than the first preset time, it is necessary to re-detect whether there is a solution to be electrolyzed in the liquid storage member 111, and re-execute subsequent steps according to the detection result.

[0107] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described.
