Referring to Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner power saving control device 100 includes a memory 120 and a processor 110, the memory 120 stores a machine executable program 121, and the machine executable program 121 is executed by the processor 110 to implement the air conditioner power saving control method in any one of the following.

[0049] Among them, the control device 100 can be arranged as part of the air conditioner, arranged inside the air conditioner, connected with the controller of the air conditioner through data, and work together. The control device 100 can also be arranged outside the air conditioner, for example, a network side device such as a server, a cloud, etc. can be arranged, and connected with the air conditioner through data. For example, it can also be arranged in the environment where the user is located or the environment around the user, and the connection mode with the air conditioner includes but is not limited to wireless transmission, infrared transmission, ultrasonic transmission, etc.

[0050] Figure 2 is a flowchart of an air conditioner power saving control method according to an embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 2 As shown, the air conditioner power saving control method proposed by the present application includes at least the following steps S202, S204.

[0051] Step S202: When the air conditioner enters the power saving mode, the ambient temperature of the environment where the air conditioner is located is obtained, and the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is calculated.

[0052] In this step, the air conditioner can be controlled to enter the power saving mode when receiving the power saving control instruction for the air conditioner, or the air conditioner can be controlled to enter the power saving mode when the set time point is reached.

[0053] Step S204: obtaining the working time length of the air conditioner, determining the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction according to the heat exchange mode of the air conditioner, the working time length and the temperature difference, and reducing the compressor frequency according to the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction.

[0054] In this step, the working time length of the air conditioner refers to the working time length since the air conditioner is started.

[0055] In the embodiment of the application, when the air conditioner enters the power saving mode, the ambient temperature of the environment where the air conditioner is located is obtained first, the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is calculated, then the working time length of the air conditioner is obtained, and finally the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction is determined according to the heat exchange mode of the air conditioner, the working time length and the temperature difference, and the compressor frequency is reduced according to the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction, so as to avoid the frequent start and stop of the compressor, reduce the consumption of the air conditioner, and realize the power saving operation of the air conditioner.

[0056] In some embodiments of the application, the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction according to the heat exchange mode of the air conditioner, the working time length and the temperature difference mentioned in the above step S204 comprises: if the air conditioner is in the cooling mode, determining whether the working time length of the air conditioner is less than a first preset working time length; if the working time length is less than the first preset time length, determining whether the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is greater than a first preset temperature difference; if the temperature difference is greater than the first preset temperature difference, determining that the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction is a first preset percentage; and if the temperature difference is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference, determining that the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction is a second preset percentage, wherein the second preset percentage is greater than the first preset percentage.

[0057] The first preset time length can be selected as 20-40 min, preferably 30 min, the first preset temperature difference can be selected as 4℃, the first preset percentage can be selected as 20%, the adjusted compressor frequency is 80% of the current operating frequency, and the second preset percentage can be selected as 40%, the adjusted compressor frequency is 60% of the current operating frequency.

[0058] In the cooling mode, if the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is greater than the first preset temperature difference, it indicates that the ambient temperature is high, in this case, the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction is small, and the compressor frequency is reduced less, so that the air conditioner can be operated in the power saving mode while the ambient temperature is reduced as soon as possible. If the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference, it indicates that the ambient temperature is relatively low, and the corresponding percentage of the compressor frequency reduction is relatively large, and the compressor frequency is reduced more, and the compressor is operated at a relatively small frequency to reduce the number of start and stop of the air conditioner, so as to realize the power saving and energy saving operation of the air conditioner.

[0059] In one embodiment of the present application, the air conditioner is in a cooling mode and the working time is less than a first preset working time, after judging whether the temperature difference is greater than a first preset temperature difference, the method further comprises: if the temperature difference is greater than the first preset temperature difference, the target temperature is increased by a first preset temperature value; if the temperature difference is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference, the target temperature is increased by a second preset temperature value and the fan speed is reduced, wherein the second preset temperature value is less than the first preset temperature value, and the target temperature is less than the set temperature.

[0060] The first preset temperature value can be 3℃, and the second preset temperature value can be 2℃. The set temperature can be 27℃. Generally, the maximum temperature of the air conditioner is 30℃, and if the target temperature is increased by a compensation temperature above the set temperature, the maximum temperature will be exceeded, resulting in the shutdown of the compressor. Therefore, in the embodiment of adjusting the temperature, the target temperature is limited to be less than the set temperature.

[0061] In the case that the air conditioner is in a cooling mode and the working time is less than a first preset working time, if the temperature difference is greater than a first preset temperature difference, the target temperature is increased by a first preset temperature value; if the temperature difference is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference, the target temperature is increased by a second preset temperature value and the fan speed is reduced, thereby further enabling the air conditioner to operate in an energy-saving and power-saving mode.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present application, the air conditioner is in a cooling mode, after judging whether the working time is less than a first preset working time, the method further comprises: if the working time is greater than or equal to the first preset working time, judging whether the temperature difference is greater than a second preset temperature difference, wherein the second preset temperature difference is less than the first preset temperature difference. If the temperature difference is greater than the second preset temperature difference, the percentage of the decrease of the compressor frequency is determined to be a third preset percentage, wherein the third preset percentage is greater than the first preset percentage and less than the second preset percentage. If the temperature difference is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the percentage of the decrease of the air conditioner is determined to be a fourth preset percentage, wherein the fourth preset percentage is greater than the second preset percentage.

[0063] The second preset temperature difference can be 3℃, the third preset percentage is 30%, the corresponding adjusted compressor frequency is 70% of the current operating frequency, and the fourth preset percentage is 50%, the corresponding adjusted compressor frequency is 50% of the current operating frequency.

[0064] The working time of the air conditioner being greater than the first preset working time indicates that the working time of the air conditioner is relatively long, and the indoor temperature is relatively low. At this time, if the temperature difference is greater than the second preset temperature difference, the percentage of the decrease of the compressor frequency is determined to be a third preset percentage, wherein the third preset percentage is greater than the first preset percentage and less than the second preset percentage. If the temperature difference is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the percentage of the decrease of the air conditioner is determined to be a fourth preset percentage, wherein the fourth preset percentage is greater than the second preset percentage. Thus, the air conditioner can be further enabled to operate in an energy-saving and power-saving mode.

[0065] In one embodiment of the present application, when the air conditioner is in the cooling mode and the working time is greater than or equal to the first preset working time, after determining whether the temperature difference is greater than the second preset temperature difference, the method further comprises: if the temperature difference is greater than the second preset temperature difference, increasing the target temperature by a third preset temperature value; and if the temperature difference is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, increasing the target temperature by a fourth preset temperature value and reducing the fan speed, wherein the third preset temperature value is equal to the second preset temperature value, and the fourth preset temperature value is less than the third preset temperature value.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present application, the fourth preset temperature value can be 1℃, and the fan speed can be adjusted to a speed which is one level lower than the current speed.

[0067] Similarly, when the working time of the air conditioner is greater than the first preset working time, it indicates that the working time of the air conditioner is relatively long, and the indoor temperature is relatively low. At this time, if the temperature difference is greater than the second preset temperature difference, the target temperature is increased by a third preset temperature value; and if the temperature difference is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the target temperature is increased by a fourth preset temperature value and the fan speed is reduced, wherein the third preset temperature value is equal to the second preset temperature value, and the fourth preset temperature value is less than the third preset temperature value. This can achieve further energy saving and power saving operation of the air conditioner.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present application, the step S204 of determining the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction according to the heat exchange mode, the working time and the temperature difference of the air conditioner comprises: if the air conditioner is in the heating mode, determining whether the working time is less than a second preset working time; if yes, determining whether the temperature difference is greater than a third preset temperature difference; if the temperature difference is greater than the third preset temperature difference, determining the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction as a fifth preset percentage; and if the temperature difference is less than or equal to the third preset temperature difference, determining the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction as a sixth preset percentage, wherein the sixth preset percentage is greater than the fifth preset percentage.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present application, the second preset working time can be 30 minutes, the third preset temperature difference can be 5℃, the fifth preset percentage can be 20%, and the sixth preset percentage can be 40%.

[0070] In one embodiment of the present application, in the heating mode, when the temperature difference is greater than the third preset temperature difference, it indicates that the ambient temperature is low. At this time, the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction is determined as the fifth preset percentage, which can make the air conditioner operate in power saving mode while the temperature rises rapidly. When the temperature difference is less than or equal to the third preset temperature difference, it indicates that the ambient temperature is relatively high. At this time, the percentage of the compressor frequency reduction is determined as the sixth preset percentage, which can avoid frequent start and stop of the compressor, reduce the consumption of the air conditioner, and achieve power saving operation of the air conditioner.
