[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the specific embodiments of the present invention and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a control method for an air conditioner is provided, wherein the indoor unit of the air conditioner comprises an internal fan, an air guide plate, and a humidifying component; the humidifying component is as follows: Figure 3 The atomizing sheet 1 in the air conditioner; the humidifying component can generate water mist to humidify the interior of the indoor unit; the outdoor unit of the air conditioner has a compressor. Figure 1 The flowchart of an embodiment of the method of the present invention is shown in FIG. The air conditioner control method may include: steps S110 to S140.

[0030] In step S110, during the cooling operation of the air conditioner, the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature are obtained.

[0031] In step S120, a starting temperature point for judging whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit is determined according to the set temperature.

[0032] In some embodiments, in step S120, the specific process of determining the starting temperature point for judging whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit according to the set temperature includes: determining the sum of the set temperature and the preset temperature as the starting temperature point for judging whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit. The preset temperature may range from 0°C to 2°C. Compared to directly using the temperature set by the user as the starting temperature point for humidification, using a temperature higher than the set temperature as the starting temperature point can reduce the rate at which the indoor temperature reaches the set temperature, maintain the operating state of the compressor, and maintain the water film thickness on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger through humidification to prevent odor molecules in the water film from diffusing into the room as the water film evaporates.

[0033] In step S130, it is determined whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit according to the indoor ambient temperature and the starting temperature point.

[0034] In some embodiments, in step S130, the specific process of determining whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit is based on the indoor ambient temperature and the starting temperature point, including: judging whether the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the starting temperature point; if the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the starting temperature point, determining to start deodorizing the indoor unit; if the indoor ambient temperature is greater than the starting temperature point, not deodorizing the indoor unit.

[0035] Generally, when the indoor ambient temperature reaches the temperature set by the user, the compressor will reduce the frequency or stop. At this time, the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger tubes continues to rise, and the continuous rotation of the internal fan accelerates the evaporation of water on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger, blowing the odorous gas dissolved in the water film into the room. Therefore, the deodorization starts after the indoor ambient temperature reaches the starting temperature point higher than the set temperature, which can completely prevent the odorous gas from blowing into the room and remove the odor more thoroughly.

[0036] At step S140, if it is determined to start deodorizing the indoor unit, the humidifying component is turned on, and the humidifying rate of the humidifying component, the wind speed of the indoor fan, and the operating frequency of the compressor are controlled according to the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature, so that a thicker water film is always maintained on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger to prevent the odor in the water film from spreading indoors. Finally, the water film drips onto the water receiving tray and is discharged outdoors.

[0037] In some embodiments, in step S140, the specific process of controlling the humidification rate of the humidification component, the wind speed of the internal fan, and the operating frequency of the compressor according to the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature includes: controlling the humidification rate of the humidification component to a first humidification rate, increasing the operating frequency of the compressor to a first operating frequency, and controlling the wind speed of the internal fan to a preset silent speed; judging whether the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the set temperature; if the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the set temperature, controlling the humidification rate of the humidification component to a second humidification rate, and reducing the operating frequency of the compressor to a second operating frequency; if the indoor ambient temperature is greater than the set temperature, the air conditioner maintains the current state and continues to operate. The first humidification rate < the second humidification rate, the first operating frequency > the second operating frequency.

[0038] After the indoor temperature drops to the starting temperature point, start to remove odor from the indoor unit. Turn on the humidification component, and the first humidification rate W1 can be set to no more than half of the maximum humidification rate Wm, that is, W1≤Wm / 2. Increase the operating frequency of the compressor, and the value range of the first operating frequency is between the current operating frequency and the maximum operating frequency. The wind gear of the indoor fan is set to a quiet gear with a lower speed, reducing the heat exchange efficiency to reduce the rate of decrease in indoor temperature. Therefore, as the air humidity in the indoor unit increases, the temperature on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger decreases, and the dew point temperature decreases, making it easier for the water film to accumulate on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger, increasing the thickness of the water film on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger. This makes it easier for the water film to flow away with the odor and be discharged.

[0039] When the compressor is running at the first operating frequency and the wind gear of the internal fan is at the silent gear, the indoor temperature will still drop, but the rate of drop will decrease, so that the surface of the indoor heat exchanger has enough time to form a thicker water film. After the indoor ambient temperature drops to the temperature set by the user, the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced to the second operating frequency, and the value range of the second operating frequency is between the minimum operating frequency and the preset frequency. The preset frequency refers to the compressor frequency that the air conditioner is initially adjusted to correspond to the set temperature. In other words, after reaching the set temperature, the compressor will usually be reduced to the frequency set by the system, and the second operating frequency is less than the set frequency, that is, the compressor frequency is further reduced during the deodorization process.

[0040] The humidification rate of the humidification component increases to the second humidification rate W2, and the second humidification rate W2 is higher than half of the maximum humidification rate Wm, that is, Wm≥W2≥Wm / 2. At the same time, the wind guide angle of the air guide plate is adjusted to the anti-direct blowing angle. At the anti-direct blowing angle, the air outlet of the indoor unit will not blow to the area where the user is located. The indoor fan maintains a silent gear. Furthermore, the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced to slowly increase the pipe temperature of the indoor heat exchanger. At the same time, the rotation of the indoor fan is coordinated to slowly blow away the water film on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger. The blown water film is eventually discharged from the drainage pipe. The air guide plate reaches the anti-direct blowing position to prevent the odor from blowing directly into the room during the process of blowing away the water film, causing discomfort to the user.

[0041] In some embodiments, when the humidification rate of the humidification component is controlled to be the second humidification rate and the operating frequency of the compressor is controlled to be the second operating frequency, the air guide angle of the air guide plate is also controlled to be a preset anti-direct blowing angle; thereafter, if the indoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the stop temperature point, the deodorization of the indoor unit is stopped, the humidification component is turned off, and the wind gear of the indoor fan, the air guide angle of the air guide plate, and the operating frequency of the compressor are controlled to be restored to the state before the deodorization of the indoor unit is started, and whether to start deodorization of the indoor unit is determined again based on the indoor ambient temperature and the starting temperature point; the set temperature is < starting temperature point ≤ stopping temperature point.

[0042] When the indoor temperature reaches the set temperature, the compressor frequency is reduced and the internal fan speed is reduced. At this time, the air conditioner provides little cooling capacity and the indoor temperature rises slowly. When the indoor temperature rises to the stop temperature point, the air conditioner stops deodorizing and continues to cool. The humidification component is turned off, and the operating frequency of the compressor, the internal fan speed, and the air guide plate position are restored to the state before deodorizing.

[0043] During the deodorization process, when the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced to the second operating frequency, as the internal fan rotates, the speed at which the indoor temperature rises will also accelerate, that is, it takes a shorter time for the indoor temperature to reach the stop temperature point, thereby shortening the time for a single deodorization and avoiding the water film from being blown into the room during the process of blowing away the water film, so that the user will not feel the spread of odor during the deodorization process, thereby improving the user experience.

[0044] Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for controlling air conditioner odor removal according to the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0045] Step 1: After the air conditioner turns on the cooling mode, determine whether the indoor temperature drops to the target temperature T2. If the indoor temperature does not drop to the target temperature T2, the air conditioner continues to cool; if the indoor temperature drops to the target temperature T2, the compressor frequency is controlled to rise to f1, the internal fan is adjusted to the silent gear, the internal humidification mode is turned on, and the humidification component starts working, and then step 2 is executed.

[0046] Step 2, determine whether the indoor temperature drops to the set temperature T. If the indoor temperature does not drop to the set temperature T, continue to run in the current state. If the indoor temperature drops to the set temperature T, control the compressor frequency to f2, keep the indoor fan at the silent gear, adjust the air guide plate to the anti-direct blowing position, and then execute step 3.

[0047] Step 3, determine whether the indoor temperature rises to the target temperature T1. Where T<T2≤T1. If the indoor temperature rises to the target temperature T1, the humidification mode in the machine is stopped, the humidification component is turned off, and the compressor frequency, air guide plate position, and internal fan speed are restored to the original cooling mode. If the indoor temperature does not rise to the target temperature T1, re-execute step 3.

[0048] In some embodiments, the indoor unit also has a water receiving pan and a water storage tank; the water receiving pan is connected to the water storage tank through an intercepting groove; the water receiving pan can collect condensed water; a stop valve is provided at the drain outlet of the water receiving pan; when the stop valve is opened, the condensed water in the water receiving pan can be discharged from the drain outlet; when the stop valve is closed, the condensed water in the water receiving pan can flow into the water storage tank through the intercepting groove; the humidifying component can use the condensed water in the water storage tank to humidify the interior of the indoor unit.

[0049] The specific structure of the indoor unit is as follows: Figure 3 As shown. The surface of the indoor heat exchanger is covered with a hydrophilic coating, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency and preventing condensed water from remaining on the surface of the heat exchanger after the air conditioner refrigeration is completed. During the refrigeration process, the condensed water in the indoor unit is finally collected in the water receiving pan 5. The water receiving pan 5 has a drain nozzle 4, and a stop valve that can be opened and closed is provided at the drain nozzle 4. A water storage tank 2 is provided at the bottom shell of the indoor unit, and the water storage tank 2 is connected to the water receiving pan 5 through a cut-off groove 3. When the stop valve is closed, the condensed water in the water receiving pan 5 can flow into the water storage tank 2 through the cut-off groove 4. When the stop valve is opened, the condensed water in the water receiving pan 5 can be discharged through the drain nozzle 4 without flowing into the water storage tank 2. The humidification component of the indoor unit is an atomizer 1. The condensed water in the water storage tank 2 can be transferred to the surface of the atomizer 1 through a cotton core, or a pipeline and a micro peristaltic pump can be provided to transfer the condensed water to the surface of the atomizer 1. The atomizer 1 atomizes the condensed water on the surface into water mist through ultrasonic atomization to humidify the indoor unit. Under the action of the internal fan, the water mist comes into contact with the low-temperature indoor heat exchanger and forms a water film on the surface of the heat exchanger, thereby locking the odor molecules in the water film and preventing the odor from spreading into the room.

[0050] In some implementations, the control method further includes: step S210 to step S240.

[0051] Step S210, during the cooling operation of the air conditioner, the indoor ambient temperature and the water level of the water tank are obtained. At this time, the stop valve is in an open state, and the condensed water in the water receiving tray is directly discharged from the drain port and does not flow into the water tank.

[0052] Step S220, determining whether the indoor ambient temperature is lower than a preset temperature.

[0053] The preset temperature is higher than the temperature set by the user and can be the stop temperature point. For example, if the target temperature set by the user is 18°C, the preset temperature is 20°C.

[0054] Step S230: if the indoor ambient temperature is not less than a preset temperature, open the stop valve.

[0055] Step S240, if the indoor ambient temperature is lower than a preset temperature, the stop valve is closed; thereafter, the stop valve is opened after the water level in the water storage tank reaches a preset water level.

[0056] The preset temperature is higher than the set temperature, which can limit the time of collecting condensed water. Condensed water can be collected during a certain temperature drop. It can not only collect a certain amount of condensed water, but also reduce the frequency of the compressor after reaching the user-set temperature during the deodorization process. When the indoor temperature rises again, condensed water can be collected again during the compressor frequency recovery process.

[0057] When the water tank collects condensed water, the water level in the water tank is continuously monitored. If the water level reaches the preset level, it means that the condensed water has been collected enough. At this time, the stop valve is opened and the water tank no longer collects condensed water. This can meet the humidification needs while avoiding overflow caused by excessive condensed water collection.

[0058] Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the process of replenishing water in the water storage tank of the air conditioner indoor unit of the present invention is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0059] Step 11: When the air conditioner is in cooling operation, open the valve at the drain nozzle, and the condensed water in the water tray is discharged from the drain nozzle. Determine whether the indoor temperature is lower than the preset temperature. If the indoor temperature is lower than the preset temperature, close the valve at the drain nozzle, turn on the water storage mode, and the condensed water in the water tray flows into the water storage tank, and then execute step 12. If the indoor temperature is not lower than the preset temperature, keep the valve at the drain nozzle open.

[0060] Step 12, determine whether the water level in the water storage tank has reached a preset height. If the water level in the water storage tank has reached the preset height, open the valve at the drain nozzle, close the water storage mode, and drain the condensed water in the water receiving tray from the drain nozzle. If the water level in the water storage tank has not reached the preset height, keep the valve at the drain nozzle closed.

[0061] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, a humidifying component is set in the indoor unit, and a starting temperature point for deodorizing the indoor unit is set; during the air conditioning refrigeration process, whether to deodorize the indoor unit is determined according to the indoor ambient temperature and the starting temperature point; after determining to start deodorizing, the humidifying component is turned on, and the humidification rate of the humidifying component, the windshield of the indoor fan, and the operating frequency of the compressor are controlled according to the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature. Thus, by always maintaining a thick water film on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger during the air conditioning refrigeration process, the water film is prevented from evaporating and causing the odor to spread indoors, thereby avoiding causing discomfort to users, improving the comfort of the indoor environment, and improving the user experience.

[0062] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a control device for an air conditioner corresponding to the control method for an air conditioner is also provided. The indoor unit of the air conditioner comprises an indoor fan, an air guide plate, and a humidifying component; Figure 3 The atomizing sheet 1 in the air conditioner; the humidifying component can generate water mist to humidify the interior of the indoor unit; the outdoor unit of the air conditioner has a compressor. Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the device of the present invention is shown. The control device of the air conditioner may include: an acquisition unit 102 and a control unit 104.

[0063] The acquisition unit 102 is configured to acquire the indoor environment temperature and the set temperature during the cooling operation of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the acquisition unit 102 refer to step S110.

[0064] The control unit 104 is configured to determine a starting temperature point for determining whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit according to the set temperature. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 refer to step S120.

[0065] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 determines the starting temperature point for judging whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit according to the set temperature, including: determining the sum of the set temperature and the preset temperature as the starting temperature point for judging whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit. The preset temperature may range from 0°C to 2°C. Compared to directly using the temperature set by the user as the starting temperature point for humidification, using a temperature higher than the set temperature as the starting temperature point can reduce the rate at which the indoor temperature reaches the set temperature, maintain the operating state of the compressor, and maintain the water film thickness on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger through humidification to prevent odor molecules in the water film from diffusing into the room as the water film evaporates.

[0066] The control unit 104 is further configured to determine whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit according to the indoor ambient temperature and the starting temperature point. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 refer to step S130.

[0067] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 determines whether to start deodorizing the indoor unit based on the indoor ambient temperature and the starting temperature point, including: judging whether the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the starting temperature point; if the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the starting temperature point, determining to start deodorizing the indoor unit; if the indoor ambient temperature is greater than the starting temperature point, not deodorizing the indoor unit.

[0068] Generally, when the indoor ambient temperature reaches the temperature set by the user, the compressor will reduce the frequency or stop. At this time, the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger tubes continues to rise, and the continuous rotation of the internal fan accelerates the evaporation of water on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger, blowing the odorous gas dissolved in the water film into the room. Therefore, the deodorization starts after the indoor ambient temperature reaches the starting temperature point higher than the set temperature, which can completely prevent the odorous gas from blowing into the room and remove the odor more thoroughly.

[0069] The control unit 104 is further configured to, if it is determined to start deodorizing the indoor unit, turn on the humidifying component, and control the humidifying rate of the humidifying component, the wind speed of the indoor fan, and the operating frequency of the compressor according to the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 refer to step S140.

[0070] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 controls the humidification rate of the humidification component, the wind speed of the internal fan, and the operating frequency of the compressor according to the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature, including: controlling the humidification rate of the humidification component to a first humidification rate, increasing the operating frequency of the compressor to a first operating frequency, and controlling the wind speed of the internal fan to a preset silent speed; judging whether the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the set temperature; if the indoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the set temperature, controlling the humidification rate of the humidification component to a second humidification rate, and reducing the operating frequency of the compressor to a second operating frequency; if the indoor ambient temperature is greater than the set temperature, the air conditioner maintains the current state and continues to operate. The first humidification rate is less than the second humidification rate, and the first operating frequency is greater than the second operating frequency.

[0071] After the indoor temperature drops to the starting temperature point, start to remove odor from the indoor unit. Turn on the humidification component, and the first humidification rate W1 can be set to no more than half of the maximum humidification rate Wm, that is, W1≤Wm / 2. Increase the operating frequency of the compressor, and the value range of the first operating frequency is between the current operating frequency and the maximum operating frequency. The wind gear of the indoor fan is set to a quiet gear with a lower speed, reducing the heat exchange efficiency to reduce the rate of decrease in indoor temperature. Therefore, as the air humidity in the indoor unit increases, the temperature on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger decreases, and the dew point temperature decreases, making it easier for the water film to accumulate on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger, increasing the thickness of the water film on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger. This makes it easier for the water film to flow away with the odor and be discharged.

[0072] When the compressor is running at the first operating frequency and the wind gear of the internal fan is at the silent gear, the indoor temperature will still drop, but the rate of drop will decrease, so that the surface of the indoor heat exchanger has enough time to form a thicker water film. After the indoor ambient temperature drops to the temperature set by the user, the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced to the second operating frequency, and the value range of the second operating frequency is between the minimum operating frequency and the preset frequency. The preset frequency refers to the compressor frequency that the air conditioner is initially adjusted to correspond to the set temperature. In other words, after reaching the set temperature, the compressor will usually be reduced to the frequency set by the system, and the second operating frequency is less than the set frequency, that is, the compressor frequency is further reduced during the deodorization process.

[0073] The humidification rate of the humidification component increases to the second humidification rate W2, and the second humidification rate W2 is higher than half of the maximum humidification rate Wm, that is, Wm≥W2≥Wm / 2. At the same time, the wind guide angle of the air guide plate is adjusted to the anti-direct blowing angle. At the anti-direct blowing angle, the air outlet of the indoor unit will not blow to the area where the user is located. The indoor fan maintains a silent gear. Furthermore, the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced to slowly increase the pipe temperature of the indoor heat exchanger. At the same time, the rotation of the indoor fan is coordinated to slowly blow away the water film on the surface of the indoor heat exchanger. The blown water film is eventually discharged from the drainage pipe. The air guide plate reaches the anti-direct blowing position to prevent the odor from blowing directly into the room during the process of blowing away the water film, causing discomfort to the user.

[0074] In some embodiments, the control unit 104, while controlling the humidification rate of the humidification component to be the second humidification rate and the operating frequency of the compressor to be the second operating frequency, also controls the air guide angle of the air guide plate to be a preset anti-direct blowing angle; thereafter, if the indoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the stop temperature point, the deodorization of the indoor unit is stopped, the humidification component is turned off, and the wind gear of the indoor fan, the air guide angle of the air guide plate, and the operating frequency of the compressor are controlled to be restored to the state before the deodorization of the indoor unit is started, and whether to start deodorization of the indoor unit is determined again based on the indoor ambient temperature and the starting temperature point; the set temperature is < starting temperature point ≤ stopping temperature point.

[0075] When the indoor temperature reaches the set temperature, the compressor frequency is reduced and the internal fan speed is reduced. At this time, the air conditioner provides little cooling capacity and the indoor temperature rises slowly. When the indoor temperature rises to the stop temperature point, the air conditioner stops deodorizing and continues to cool. The humidification component is turned off, and the operating frequency of the compressor, the internal fan speed, and the air guide plate position are restored to the state before deodorizing.

[0076] During the deodorization process, when the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced to the second operating frequency, as the internal fan rotates, the speed at which the indoor temperature rises will also accelerate, that is, it takes a shorter time for the indoor temperature to reach the stop temperature point, thereby shortening the time for a single deodorization and avoiding the water film from being blown into the room during the process of blowing away the water film, so that the user will not feel the spread of odor during the deodorization process, thereby improving the user experience.

[0077] Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for controlling air conditioner odor removal according to the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0078] Step 1: After the air conditioner turns on the cooling mode, determine whether the indoor temperature drops to the target temperature T2. If the indoor temperature does not drop to the target temperature T2, the air conditioner continues to cool; if the indoor temperature drops to the target temperature T2, the compressor frequency is controlled to rise to f1, the internal fan is adjusted to the silent gear, the internal humidification mode is turned on, and the humidification component starts working, and then step 2 is executed.

[0079] Step 2, determine whether the indoor temperature drops to the set temperature T. If the indoor temperature does not drop to the set temperature T, continue to run in the current state. If the indoor temperature drops to the set temperature T, control the compressor frequency to f2, keep the indoor fan at the silent gear, adjust the air guide plate to the anti-direct blowing position, and then execute step 3.

[0080] Step 3, determine whether the indoor temperature rises to the target temperature T1. Where T<T2≤T1. If the indoor temperature rises to the target temperature T1, the humidification mode in the machine is stopped, the humidification component is turned off, and the compressor frequency, air guide plate position, and internal fan speed are restored to the original cooling mode. If the indoor temperature does not rise to the target temperature T1, re-execute step 3.

[0081] In some embodiments, the indoor unit also has a water receiving pan and a water storage tank; the water receiving pan is connected to the water storage tank through an intercepting groove; the water receiving pan can collect condensed water; a stop valve is provided at the drain outlet of the water receiving pan; when the stop valve is opened, the condensed water in the water receiving pan can be discharged from the drain outlet; when the stop valve is closed, the condensed water in the water receiving pan can flow into the water storage tank through the intercepting groove; the humidifying component can use the condensed water in the water storage tank to humidify the interior of the indoor unit.

[0082] The specific structure of the indoor unit is as follows: Figure 3As shown. The surface of the indoor heat exchanger is covered with a hydrophilic coating, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency and preventing condensed water from remaining on the surface of the heat exchanger after the air conditioner refrigeration is completed. During the refrigeration process, the condensed water in the indoor unit is finally collected in the water receiving pan 5. The water receiving pan 5 has a drain nozzle 4, and a stop valve that can be opened and closed is provided at the drain nozzle 4. A water storage tank 2 is provided at the bottom shell of the indoor unit, and the water storage tank 2 is connected to the water receiving pan 5 through a cut-off groove 3. When the stop valve is closed, the condensed water in the water receiving pan 5 can flow into the water storage tank 2 through the cut-off groove 4. When the stop valve is opened, the condensed water in the water receiving pan 5 can be discharged through the drain nozzle 4 without flowing into the water storage tank 2. The humidification component of the indoor unit is an atomizer 1. The condensed water in the water storage tank 2 can be transferred to the surface of the atomizer 1 through a cotton core, or a pipeline and a micro peristaltic pump can be provided to transfer the condensed water to the surface of the atomizer 1. The atomizer 1 atomizes the condensed water on the surface into water mist through ultrasonic atomization to humidify the indoor unit. Under the action of the internal fan, the water mist comes into contact with the low-temperature indoor heat exchanger and forms a water film on the surface of the heat exchanger, thereby locking the odor molecules in the water film and preventing the odor from spreading into the room.

[0083] In some embodiments, the control device further comprises:

[0084] The acquisition unit 102 is further configured to acquire the indoor ambient temperature and the water level of the water tank during the cooling operation of the air conditioner. The specific functions and processing of the acquisition unit 102 refer to step S210. At this time, the stop valve is in an open state, and the condensed water in the water receiving tray is directly discharged from the drain port and does not flow into the water tank.

[0085] The control unit 104 is further configured to determine whether the indoor environment temperature is less than a preset temperature. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 refer to step S220.

[0086] The preset temperature is higher than the temperature set by the user and can be the stop temperature point. For example, if the target temperature set by the user is 18°C, the preset temperature is 20°C.

[0087] The control unit 104 is further configured to open the stop valve if the indoor ambient temperature is not less than a preset temperature. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 refer to step S230.

[0088] The control unit 104 is further configured to close the stop valve if the indoor ambient temperature is lower than a preset temperature; and then open the stop valve after the water level in the water storage tank reaches a preset water level. The specific functions and processing of the control unit 104 refer to step S240.

[0089] The preset temperature is higher than the set temperature, which can limit the time of collecting condensed water. Condensed water can be collected during a certain temperature drop. It can not only collect a certain amount of condensed water, but also reduce the frequency of the compressor after reaching the user-set temperature during the deodorization process. When the indoor temperature rises again, condensed water can be collected again during the compressor frequency recovery process.

[0090] When the water tank collects condensed water, the water level in the water tank is continuously monitored. If the water level reaches the preset level, it means that the condensed water has been collected enough. At this time, the stop valve is opened and the water tank no longer collects condensed water. This can meet the humidification needs while avoiding overflow caused by excessive condensed water collection.

[0091] Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the process of replenishing water in the water storage tank of the air conditioner indoor unit of the present invention is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0092] Step 11: When the air conditioner is in cooling operation, open the valve at the drain nozzle, and the condensed water in the water tray is discharged from the drain nozzle. Determine whether the indoor temperature is lower than the preset temperature. If the indoor temperature is lower than the preset temperature, close the valve at the drain nozzle, turn on the water storage mode, and the condensed water in the water tray flows into the water storage tank, and then execute step 12. If the indoor temperature is not lower than the preset temperature, keep the valve at the drain nozzle open.

[0093] Step 12, determine whether the water level in the water storage tank has reached a preset height. If the water level in the water storage tank has reached the preset height, open the valve at the drain nozzle, close the water storage mode, and drain the condensed water in the water receiving tray from the drain nozzle. If the water level in the water storage tank has not reached the preset height, keep the valve at the drain nozzle closed.
