TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, in particular to an upgrading method of an air conditioner, a server and a computer readable storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] The main function of an air conditioner is to adjust the indoor temperature. For a heat pump type air conditioner, it has both refrigeration and heating functions.

[0003] When the air conditioner is running in refrigeration mode and heating mode, its temperature adjustment capability (refrigeration capacity and heating capacity) directly affects the user's cooling and heating experience. The temperature adjustment capability is not only related to the hardware structure of the air conditioner, but also closely related to the operation condition and control logic. However, the control logic of the air conditioner is determined at the time of factory shipment and cannot be updated in real time according to the change of the operation condition, which affects the performance of the air conditioner and the user's cooling and heating experience. SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide an upgrading method of an air conditioner, a server and a computer readable storage medium which can overcome the above problems or at least partially solve the above problems.

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to make the temperature adjustment logic of the air conditioner more match the current operation condition, so that the temperature adjustment capability of the air conditioner can fully meet the user's demand.

[0006] In one aspect, the present application provides an upgrading method of an air conditioner, comprising:

[0007] obtaining a load duration ratio parameter of the air conditioner in a preset collection period and a current temperature adjustment logic;

[0008] determining whether the current temperature adjustment logic needs to be upgraded according to the load duration ratio parameter, so as to adjust the temperature adjustment capability of the air conditioner;

[0009] if yes, generating an upgrading program of the temperature adjustment logic according to the load duration ratio parameter and the current temperature adjustment logic;

[0010] controlling the air conditioner to upgrade the temperature adjustment logic based on the upgrading program.

[0011] Optionally, each of the collection periods is a preset time period before the corresponding data collection time.

[0012] Optionally, obtaining the load duration ratio parameter of the air conditioner in the collection period comprises:

[0013] obtaining the load duration of the compressor running at a frequency higher than a preset frequency and / or the number of self-stops of the compressor in the collection period of the air conditioner, and the total duration of the interval duration between all adjacent on / off events based on user operation.

[0014] The ratio parameter of the loaded duration is calculated according to the loaded duration and / or the number of self-stops and the total duration.

[0015] Optionally, the ratio parameter of the loaded duration of the air conditioner in the collection period comprises:

[0016] The ratio parameter of the loaded duration is calculated according to the following formula: C=a(T / T0)-b(N / T0).

[0017] In the formula, C is the ratio parameter of the loaded duration, T is the loaded duration, T0 is the total duration, N is the number of self-stops, and a and b are preset coefficients.

[0018] Optionally, the determination whether the temperature regulation logic needs to be upgraded according to the ratio parameter of the loaded duration comprises:

[0019] determining the relationship between the ratio parameter of the loaded duration and a preset duration parameter standard interval;

[0020] if the ratio parameter of the loaded duration falls into the duration parameter standard interval, it is determined that the temperature regulation logic does not need to be upgraded;

[0021] if the ratio parameter of the loaded duration does not fall into the duration parameter standard interval, it is determined that the temperature regulation logic needs to be upgraded.

[0022] Optionally, the upgrade program of the temperature regulation logic is generated according to the ratio parameter of the loaded duration and the current temperature regulation logic, and the upgrade program comprises:

[0023] determining the relationship between the ratio parameter of the loaded duration and a preset duration parameter standard interval;

[0024] if the ratio parameter of the loaded duration falls to the right of the duration parameter standard interval, an upgrade program of the temperature regulation logic aiming to improve the temperature regulation capacity of the air conditioner is generated;

[0025] if the ratio parameter of the loaded duration falls to the left of the duration parameter standard interval, an upgrade program of the temperature regulation logic aiming to reduce the temperature regulation capacity of the air conditioner is generated.

[0026] Optionally, in the upgrade program, the adjustment range of the temperature regulation capacity of the air conditioner is proportional to the distance of the ratio parameter of the loaded duration from the duration parameter standard interval.

[0027] Optionally, in the collection period, the operation mode of the air conditioner is a cooling mode or a heating mode.

[0028] The temperature regulation capacity is a cooling capacity or a heating capacity.

[0029] In another aspect, the present application also provides a server comprising a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores a computer program, and the computer program is executed by the processor to implement the control method according to any one of the above.

[0030] In yet another aspect, the present application also provides a computer readable storage medium storing a computer program, and the computer program is executed by a processor to implement the upgrading method according to any one of the above.

[0031] In the upgrading method of the air conditioner, the on-load duration ratio parameter of the air conditioner in the previous collection period is obtained, which can reflect the duration of the effective operation of the compressor in the collection period (preferably excluding the duration of the operation of the compressor at an extremely low frequency of 1 Hz to maintain the non-stop operation), that is, the temperature regulation ability and the temperature regulation difficulty in the collection period. Specifically, if the on-load duration ratio parameter is large, it indicates that the refrigerating / heat capacity of the current temperature regulation logic is insufficient, and the compressor needs to be operated for a long time, and there is little opportunity to stop or operate at an extremely low frequency, and the temperature regulation difficulty is large. On the contrary, if the on-load duration ratio parameter is small, it indicates that the refrigerating / heat capacity of the existing temperature regulation logic is excessive, so that the operation time of the compressor in the collection period is too short, and the stop or extremely low frequency time is too long, and the temperature regulation difficulty is low. The above first case makes the user feel that the refrigeration / heat is too slow and the effect is not good, and the second case makes the air conditioner refrigeration / heat efficiency low. Therefore, when the above situation occurs, the upgrading program can be generated according to the on-load duration ratio parameter and the current temperature regulation logic to adjust the temperature regulation ability of the air conditioner to a reasonable range, which meets the user's demand and makes the efficiency higher. And the remote upgrading process is realized by the OTA mode to improve the user experience.

[0032] Further, in the air conditioner upgrading method, the on-load duration ratio parameter is calculated according to the on-load duration of the compressor running at a frequency higher than the preset frequency and the self-stopping number of the compressor in the collection period, so that the result of the on-load duration ratio parameter is more reasonable and effective, and the interference factors are excluded.

[0042] ​The application provides an upgrading method of an air conditioner. The air conditioner is used for adjusting indoor air, including adjusting temperature, humidity, air quality of the air, humidifying, dehumidifying, introducing fresh air and the like of the indoor air. The air conditioner is composed of an evaporator, a condensing device, a compressor, a throttling device and other elements to form a vapor compression refrigeration cycle system. The upgrading method of the air conditioner is used for upgrading a control program of the air conditioner. Specifically, an OTA mode can be adopted, that is, the latest software upgrade package is downloaded from a remote server through a mobile communication interface of the air conditioner to upgrade the control program of the air conditioner, so that remote management of the air conditioner by the air conditioner manufacturer is realized.

[0043] It should be understood that the upgrading method of the embodiment of the application is described from the server side, that is, the server performs the related steps.

[0044] The inventor of the application realizes that when the air conditioner is in a refrigeration or heating operation, the temperature adjustment capability is not only related to the hardware structure of the air conditioner (mainly the size of the refrigeration system), but also closely related to the operation condition and control logic of the air conditioner. However, in reality, the design of the control logic often only considers the conventional condition and does not consider the special condition, so that the control logic and the condition are not matched, which leads to the situation that the air conditioner is difficult to operate at the optimal efficiency and meet the cooling and heating demand of the user.

[0045] Based on this realization, the application specially designs the following optimization scheme. Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an upgrading method of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the application.

[0046] As shown in FIG. 1, the upgrading method of the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the application can generally include the following steps: Figure 1

[0047] Step S102: acquiring a load duration ratio parameter of the air conditioner in a preset acquisition period and a current temperature adjustment logic.

[0048] Step S104: confirming whether the temperature adjustment logic needs to be upgraded according to the load duration ratio parameter, so as to adjust the temperature adjustment capability of the air conditioner;

[0049] Step S106: if yes, generating an upgrading program of the temperature adjustment logic according to the load duration ratio parameter and the current temperature adjustment logic;

[0050] Step S108: controlling the air conditioner to upgrade the temperature adjustment logic based on the upgrading program.

[0051] In the upgrading method of the embodiment of the application, the server acquires the operation parameter of the air conditioner in a remote communication mode. In the above acquisition period, the operation mode of the air conditioner is a refrigeration mode or a heating mode, and the temperature adjustment capability of the air conditioner is a refrigeration capability or a heating capability, for example, a refrigeration capacity or a heating capacity. ​

[0052] Each collection period is a preset time period before the corresponding data collection time. For example, the A time point of each day can be set as the data collection time point, and the relevant data in the X length of time from the A-X time point to the A time point of the day can be collected. The time period between A-X and A constitutes the "collection period" of the collection time point. The server can obtain the relevant operation data of the air conditioner in real time, and perform screening, summarization and calculation at the collection time point. Alternatively, the controller of the air conditioner can record the relevant operation data in real time, and provide the data to the server at the collection time point.

[0053] The load duration refers to the duration of the effective operation of the compressor, and preferably deducts the duration of the extremely low frequency operation of the compressor at 2Hz, 1Hz, etc., because the most important purpose of such extremely low frequency operation is to ensure that the compressor does not stop and reduce the start-stop loss, and the main purpose is not to refrigerate / heat. The load duration ratio parameter is related to the load duration, and is used to reflect the load degree of the compressor in the collection period, that is, to reflect the temperature regulation ability and temperature regulation difficulty of the air conditioner in the period.

[0054] Specifically, if the load duration ratio parameter is large, it indicates that the air conditioner controlled by the current temperature regulation logic has insufficient refrigerating / heating capacity under the working condition of the collection period, so that the compressor needs to run for a long time in the collection period, and the stop time or extremely low frequency operation time is very short, and the temperature regulation difficulty is very high. On the contrary, if the load duration ratio parameter is small, it indicates that the refrigerating / heating capacity of the air conditioner controlled by the current temperature regulation logic is excessive, so that the compressor runs for too short a time in the collection period, and the stop time or extremely low frequency operation time is too long, and the temperature regulation difficulty is too low. The above first case makes the user feel that the refrigeration / heating is too slow and the effect is not good, and the second case makes the refrigeration / heating efficiency low. Therefore, when the above situation occurs, an upgrade program can be generated according to the load duration ratio parameter and the current temperature regulation logic to adjust the temperature regulation ability of the air conditioner to a reasonable range, which not only meets the user's needs, but also makes the efficiency higher.

[0055] The remote upgrade can be specifically realized by the OTA mode. For example, automatic upgrade or manual upgrade can be adopted. The automatic upgrade refers to that the server sends the upgrade program to the air conditioner, and makes it automatically upgrade in a reasonable time period (for example, at night when the air conditioner stops). After the upgrade is completed, the server can report the prompt information to the user. The manual upgrade refers to that the server reports the upgrade prompt information to the user, which can be specifically realized by the terminal app, the remote controller, the air conditioner base control panel light mode. The user selects to upgrade or not to upgrade. When the user selects to upgrade, the server sends the upgrade program to the air conditioner, and the air conditioner executes the upgrade process after receiving the upgrade program.

[0056] In step S104, if it is judged that the temperature regulation logic does not need to be upgraded, the process is ended.

[0057] The above upgrading method can be run only once or multiple times in the entire service life of the air conditioner. For example, the server can be caused to collect air conditioner parameters periodically or aperiodically. If collected periodically, the collection frequency can be reasonably set, for example, collected once a day or collected every three days in turn, and after each collection, if it is judged that upgrading is needed, the temperature regulation logic is upgraded in time. As for aperiodic collection, the collection time can be determined by the manufacturer according to factors such as climate and working conditions to cope with the adverse effects of drastic changes in climate and working conditions on the air conditioner.

[0058] In some embodiments, in the foregoing step S102, obtaining the load duration ratio parameter of the air conditioner in the collection period includes: obtaining the load duration T of the compressor of the air conditioner running at a frequency higher than the preset frequency and / or the number N of self-stops of the compressor in the collection period, and the total duration T0 of all adjacent on / off event interval durations based on user operation; and calculating the load duration ratio parameter C based on the load duration T and / or the number N of self-stops and the total duration T0. It can be seen that the greater the load duration T and the fewer the number N of self-stops, the greater the compressor load and the higher the temperature regulation difficulty in the collection period. The smaller the load duration T and the greater the number N of self-stops, the smaller the compressor load and the lower the temperature regulation difficulty in the collection period.

[0059] The preset frequency can be reasonably set according to the original compressor control mode of the air conditioner. For example, if in the original compressor control mode, when the indoor temperature reaches the vicinity of the set temperature, the compressor is controlled to stop, and when the indoor temperature deviates from the set temperature by a preset temperature difference, the compressor is restarted, it indicates that all the running time of the compressor is for refrigeration / heat, and the foregoing "preset frequency" can be set to 0. If in the original compressor control mode, when the indoor temperature reaches the vicinity of the set temperature, the compressor is controlled to run at an extremely low frequency, for example, 2Hz, 1Hz, 0.5Hz, etc., the most important purpose of extremely low frequency operation is to ensure that the compressor does not stop and reduce the start-stop loss, and not mainly for refrigeration / heat. Therefore, the foregoing "preset frequency" can be set to 2Hz, 1Hz, 0.5Hz, etc. to exclude the time of extremely low frequency operation and not count it into the load duration T of the compressor.

[0060] In this step, the number of self-stops N of the compressor refers to the number of times that the compressor is automatically stopped by the air conditioner control when the indoor temperature reaches the vicinity of the set temperature. In each collection period, the user may use the air conditioner one or more times, and each time the user needs to operate the remote controller, terminal app, or control panel to turn on and turn off the air conditioner. There is an interval between each start and stop event, and the sum of the interval lengths of all start and stop events in the collection period constitutes the total length T0. For example, in a certain "collection period", the user uses the air conditioner a total of two times. The first time, the user starts at time t and stops at time v, with an interval of T1 hours, during which the compressor is automatically stopped N1 times. The second time, the user starts at time c and stops at time d, with an interval of T2 hours, during which the compressor is automatically stopped N2 times. Then the total length T0 = T1 + T2, and the number of self-stops N = N1 + N2.

[0061] Further, in the aforementioned step S102, obtaining the load duration ratio parameter of the air conditioner in the collection period includes calculating the load duration ratio parameter according to the following formula: C = a(T / T0) - b(N / T0). In the formula, C is the load duration ratio parameter, T is the load duration, T0 is the total length, N is the number of self-stops, and a and b are preset coefficients. This calculation method takes into account the load duration, the number of self-stops, and the total length of the compressor, so that the load duration ratio parameter can better reflect the load degree of the compressor in the collection period. The skilled person can determine the degree to which T and N reflect the load degree of the compressor according to the specific model of the air conditioner and the existing control logic, and reasonably determine the values of a and b. It can be understood that a and b are both positive or one is 0 and the other is positive.

[0062] In some embodiments, the aforementioned step S104, i.e., determining whether the temperature regulation logic needs to be upgraded according to the load duration ratio parameter C, includes:

[0063] determining the relationship between the load duration ratio parameter C and a preset time parameter standard interval; if the load duration ratio parameter C falls within the time parameter standard interval, it is determined that the temperature regulation logic does not need to be upgraded; if the load duration ratio parameter C does not fall within the time parameter standard interval, it is determined that the temperature regulation logic needs to be upgraded.

[0064] Specifically, the time parameter standard interval represents a reasonable range, or ideal range, of the load duration ratio parameter C. When C falls within the time parameter standard interval, it indicates that the load degree of the compressor is within a normal range, and the temperature regulation logic does not need to be changed. The left endpoint of the time parameter standard interval is C1, and the right endpoint is C2, which can be an open interval, a closed interval, a left-open right-closed interval, or a left-closed right-open interval. The skilled person can reasonably determine the range of the time parameter standard interval according to the specific model of the air conditioner and the existing control logic.

[0065] Further, the aforementioned step S106, i.e., generating the upgrade program of the temperature adjustment logic according to the load duration ratio parameter C and the current temperature adjustment logic, comprises: judging the relationship between the load duration ratio parameter C and a preset duration parameter standard interval; if the load duration ratio parameter C falls on the right side of the duration parameter standard interval, generating an upgrade program of the temperature adjustment logic aiming to improve the temperature adjustment capacity of the air conditioner; if the load duration ratio parameter C falls on the left side of the duration parameter standard interval, generating an upgrade program of the temperature adjustment logic aiming to reduce the temperature adjustment capacity of the air conditioner. For example, the duration parameter standard interval is a closed interval [C1, C2], when C1≤C≤C2, it indicates that C falls in the interval. When C>C2, it indicates that C falls on the right side of the interval, indicating that the value of C is large, the load of the compressor in the collection period is large, and therefore the temperature adjustment capacity needs to be improved, i.e., the refrigerating capacity / heat capacity needs to be improved. When C<C1, it indicates that C falls on the left side of the interval, and the load of the compressor in the collection period is small, and therefore the temperature adjustment capacity needs to be reduced, i.e., the refrigerating capacity / heat capacity needs to be reduced.

[0066] Specifically, the temperature adjustment logic can be adjusted by adjusting multiple control parameters to improve / reduce the temperature adjustment capacity of the air conditioner. For example, if other parameters remain unchanged, increasing / decreasing the frequency of the compressor can increase / decrease the temperature adjustment capacity, i.e., increase / decrease the refrigerating capacity / heat capacity. If other parameters remain unchanged, increasing / decreasing the rotating speed of the heat exchange fan can increase / decrease the temperature adjustment capacity. If other parameters remain unchanged, increasing / decreasing the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve can increase / decrease the temperature adjustment capacity. These adjustment methods can be used alone or in combination. The above-mentioned methods of increasing / decreasing the temperature adjustment capacity of the air conditioner are well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described here.

[0067] Further, in the upgrade program, the adjustment range of the temperature adjustment capacity of the air conditioner is proportional to the distance of the load duration ratio parameter C from the duration parameter standard interval. The calculation method of the distance between the point and the interval is clear to those skilled in the art, and specifically, when C falls on the right side of the interval, the distance is C-C2, and when C falls on the left side of the interval, the distance is C1-C. The present embodiment makes the adjustment range proportional to the distance, so that the adjustment range can better meet the real needs of the air conditioner.

[0068] For example, taking the case of increasing the temperature adjustment capacity, the increment of the frequency of the compressor is ΔF=m(C-C2), the increment of the rotating speed of the heat exchange fan is Δn=k(C-C2), and the increment of the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is ΔB=r(C-C2), m, k, and r are all positive coefficients.

[0069] In some optional embodiments, higher technical effects can be achieved by further optimization and configuration of the above steps. The upgrading method of the present embodiment will be described in detail in combination with the introduction of an optional execution flow of the present embodiment. The present embodiment is only an example of the execution flow, and in specific implementation, the execution order and running conditions of some steps can be modified according to specific implementation requirements.
