Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of intelligent control technology, and in particular to a control method, device, and intelligent home system for a smart home system. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards gradually improve and technology advances, various devices used in homes are becoming increasingly intelligent. For example, home appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, televisions, washing machines, and water heaters are becoming more and more intelligent. In addition, everyday items such as curtains, windows, mosquito nets, and mattresses are also becoming intelligent, resulting in smart curtains, smart windows, smart mosquito nets, and smart mattresses.

[0003] The demand for environmental control devices in daily life and work goes beyond traditional functions; there's a greater desire for them to adjust to users' real-time needs in various ways. Environmental control devices can include household appliances like air conditioners used to regulate ambient air parameters. However, most current environmental control devices, due to limitations in their functionality and structure, cannot effectively embody the concept of interconnectivity with other devices. For example, current air conditioning devices cannot effectively interconnect with smart mosquito nets, failing to intelligently adjust according to the user's actual needs, resulting in a poor user experience in terms of intelligence. Summary of the Invention

[0004] One objective of the first aspect of this invention is to overcome at least one deficiency of the prior art and provide an interconnection control method for an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net, so as to intelligently adjust the opening and closing state of the smart mosquito net, thereby effectively preventing mosquitoes.

[0005] A further objective of the first aspect of this invention is to improve the user experience.

[0006] Another further object of the first aspect of the present invention is to improve mosquito-repellent efficiency and user comfort.

[0007] The second aspect of this invention aims to provide an interconnection control device for an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net, so as to intelligently adjust the opening and closing state of the smart mosquito net, thereby effectively preventing mosquitoes.

[0008] A third aspect of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner having the above-described interconnection control device.

[0009] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides an interconnection control method for an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net, wherein the smart mosquito net and the air conditioner are located in the same indoor environment space, and the control method includes:

[0010] Receive a human rest signal indicating the presence of a human body on the bed in the indoor environment;

[0011] Initial measurements of multiple different environmental parameters within the indoor environment space are obtained to form initial environmental data;

[0012] When the initial environmental data meets the preset conditions, the target environmental parameter is selected from the multiple environmental parameters according to the preset rules. The preset conditions indicate that the human body is at risk of being bitten by mosquitoes.

[0013] If the target environmental parameter is selected, the air conditioner is used to adjust the target environmental parameter so that the final environmental data formed by the adjusted value of the target environmental parameter and the values ​​of other environmental parameters does not meet the preset conditions; and

[0014] If the target environmental parameters are not selected, the smart mosquito net will be deployed.

[0015] Optionally, the preset conditions are set such that the activity level of mosquitoes in the indoor environment is higher than a preset level.

[0016] Optionally, the plurality of environmental parameters include the temperature and humidity within the indoor environment, and the wind speed at the location of the human body; and

[0017] The preset conditions are that the temperature in the indoor environment is higher than a preset temperature value, the humidity in the indoor environment is within a preset humidity range, and the wind speed at the location of the human body is less than a preset wind speed value.

[0018] Optionally, the step of filtering the target environmental parameters from the plurality of environmental parameters according to preset rules includes:

[0019] Send a mosquito prevention reminder command to a terminal device interconnected with the air conditioner and / or the smart mosquito net; the mosquito prevention reminder command includes multiple mosquito prevention measures, including unfolding the smart mosquito net and adjusting any one of the multiple environmental parameters;

[0020] If a mosquito prevention confirmation command is received from the terminal device, the mosquito prevention measures contained in the mosquito prevention confirmation command are obtained; and

[0021] If the mosquito prevention measure involves adjusting one of the multiple environmental parameters, then that environmental parameter shall be used as the target environmental parameter.

[0022] Optionally, if the mosquito prevention measure is to unfold the smart mosquito net, it is determined that the target environmental parameters have not been filtered.

[0023] Optionally, the preset conditions include a parameter range corresponding to each of the environmental parameters; and

[0024] The steps for filtering target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules include:

[0025] Calculate the absolute value of the difference between the initial measured value of each environmental parameter and the nearest endpoint value of the parameter range corresponding to that environmental parameter under the preset conditions;

[0026] Calculate the ratio between the absolute value of the difference corresponding to each of the environmental parameters and the value of the nearest endpoint.

[0027] The smallest ratio is selected from the calculated ratios;

[0028] If the minimum ratio is less than or equal to a preset percentage, then the environmental parameter corresponding to the minimum ratio is taken as the target environmental parameter.

[0029] Optionally, if the minimum ratio is greater than the preset percentage, it is determined that the target environmental parameter has not been filtered.

[0030] Optionally, the preset conditions include a parameter range corresponding to each of the environmental parameters; and

[0031] The step of adjusting the target environmental parameters using the air conditioner so that the final environmental data formed by the adjusted target environmental parameters and the parameter values ​​of other environmental parameters does not meet the preset conditions includes:

[0032] The air conditioner adjusts the value of the target environmental parameter to outside the parameter range corresponding to the preset conditions.

[0033] According to a second aspect of the present invention, the present invention also provides an interconnection control device for an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net, wherein the smart mosquito net and the air conditioner are located in the same indoor environment space; and

[0034] The interconnection control device includes a processor and a memory, the memory storing a machine-executable program, and the machine-executable program being executed by the processor to implement the interconnection control method described in any of the above schemes.

[0035] According to a second aspect of the present invention, the present invention also provides an air conditioner including the interconnection control device according to any of the above embodiments.

[0036] The present invention provides an interconnected control method for an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net. The air conditioner and the smart mosquito net are located in the same indoor environment, facilitating their collaborative operation and achieving more intelligent mosquito prevention. Specifically, the control method automatically acquires initial environmental data of the indoor environment when a human is present on the bed. When the initial environmental data indicates a risk of mosquito bites, target environmental parameters are first filtered according to preset rules. If the target environmental parameters can be selected, the air conditioner adjusts them so that the final environmental data formed by the values ​​of multiple environmental parameters does not meet the preset conditions, thus eliminating environmental factors that could lead to mosquito bites. This eliminates the need to deploy the smart mosquito net, increasing its necessity and avoiding the unpleasant user experience caused by unnecessary deployment. If no target environmental parameters can be selected, the smart mosquito net is directly deployed, achieving intelligent adjustment of its deployment and retraction status, effectively achieving mosquito prevention.

[0037] When selecting a target environmental parameter from multiple environmental parameters, a mosquito prevention prompt command is sent to the terminal device, allowing the user to understand various mosquito prevention measures and choose the one they prefer. If the user provides a mosquito prevention confirmation command via the terminal device, and the command instructs adjustment of one of the environmental parameters, that parameter is designated as the target environmental parameter for subsequent adjustment. If the user's confirmation command is to directly unfold the smart mosquito net, it is assumed that no target environmental parameter has been selected, and the mosquito net will be unfolded directly. In summary, this invention effectively executes corresponding mosquito prevention measures based on the user's confirmation command, meeting user expectations and providing a good user experience.

[0038] When selecting target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters, the system can also select the environmental parameter whose initial measurement value is closest to the parameter range corresponding to the preset conditions. Once a certain degree of closeness is achieved, this parameter can be used as the target environmental parameter. This allows for subsequent adjustment of the target environmental parameter. On the one hand, it can quickly adjust the value of the target environmental parameter to outside the corresponding parameter range of the preset conditions, thereby rapidly eliminating environmental factors that pose a risk of mosquito bites to users and improving mosquito prevention efficiency. On the other hand, since the adjustment range of the target environmental parameter is small, there will be no significant difference in the user's physical sensation before and after the adjustment, thus improving the user's comfort experience.

[0039] The above and other objects, advantages and features of the present invention will become more apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description of specific embodiments of the invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0046] Figure 6 This is a schematic structural block diagram of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0047] This invention first provides a method for interconnecting and controlling an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net, which enables intelligent interconnection between the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net, providing a scenario for interconnection of smart home appliances and effectively improving the level of intelligence.

[0048] Specifically, the smart mosquito net and the air conditioner are located in the same indoor environment so that the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net can work together to provide more intelligent mosquito prevention.

[0049] It should be noted that the methods in the following embodiments of the present invention are all described from the perspective of the interconnection control device between the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net, that is, the relevant steps are performed by the control device. Furthermore, the premise for implementing the solutions in the following embodiments of the present invention is that the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net are interconnected. Specifically, an interconnection control device between the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net can be provided. This control device can receive signals sent by the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net, and can also send signals to the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net. This control device can be set up separately or can be installed inside the air conditioner.

[0050] The smart mosquito net in this embodiment is intelligent because, as mentioned above, it can both send signals to and receive signals from the control device. Specifically, this can be achieved by installing a controller on the smart mosquito net. Similarly, an air conditioner can also be equipped with its own controller, thus enabling it to both send and receive signals from the control device.

[0051] Specifically, the interconnection control method between the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net of the present invention includes:

[0052] Receives a human rest signal indicating the presence of a human body on a bed in an indoor environment;

[0053] To obtain initial measurements of multiple different environmental parameters within an indoor space, thus forming initial environmental data;

[0054] When the initial environmental data meets the preset conditions, the target environmental parameter is selected from multiple environmental parameters according to the preset rules; the preset conditions indicate that the human body is at risk of being bitten by mosquitoes.

[0055] If target environmental parameters are selected, the air conditioner is adjusted to ensure that the final environmental data, formed by the adjusted target environmental parameter value and the values ​​of other environmental parameters, does not meet the preset conditions; and

[0056] If no target environmental parameters are selected, the smart mosquito net will be deployed.

[0057] It should be noted that filtering for a target environmental parameter among multiple environmental parameters must be done according to preset rules, and it is not guaranteed that the target environmental parameter will be selected. In other words, there are two possible outcomes of "filtering for a target environmental parameter among multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules": either the target environmental parameter will be selected, or it will not be selected.

[0058] The control method for the air conditioner and smart mosquito net of this invention automatically acquires initial environmental data of the indoor space when a human body is present on the bed. When it is determined based on the initial environmental data that the user is at risk of being bitten (i.e., when preset conditions are met), target environmental parameters are first filtered according to preset rules. If the target environmental parameters can be filtered out, the air conditioner adjusts the target environmental parameters so that the final environmental data formed by the parameter values ​​of the adjusted multiple environmental parameters does not meet the preset conditions, thus eliminating the environmental factors that pose a risk of biting to the user. In this case, it is not necessary to unfold the smart mosquito net. If the target environmental parameters cannot be filtered out, the environmental factors that pose a risk of biting to the user cannot be eliminated, so the smart mosquito net is unfolded. This invention achieves intelligent adjustment of the unfolding and retraction state of the smart mosquito net, effectively achieving the purpose of mosquito prevention. Furthermore, this invention only unfolds the smart mosquito net when the environmental factors that pose a risk of biting to the user cannot be eliminated, increasing the necessity of unfolding the smart mosquito net and avoiding the unpleasant user experience caused by unnecessary unfolding of the smart mosquito net.

[0059] In some embodiments, the smart mosquito net is controlled to retract when the initial environmental data does not meet preset conditions.

[0060] When the initial measurements of multiple environmental parameters in the indoor space do not meet the preset conditions, it indicates that the user is less likely to be bitten by mosquitoes, and there is no need for the smart mosquito net to be unfolded. Therefore, controlling the smart mosquito net to retract at this time can avoid the unpleasant user experience caused by the unnecessary unfolding of the smart mosquito net.

[0061] Specifically, Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for interconnecting and controlling an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net according to an embodiment of the present invention. See also... Figure 1 The interconnection control method of the present invention may specifically include:

[0062] Step S10: Receive a human rest signal indicating the presence of a human body on the bed in the indoor environment.

[0063] Step 20: Obtain initial measurement values ​​of multiple different environmental parameters within the indoor environment space to form initial environmental data;

[0064] Step S30: Determine whether the initial environmental data meets the preset conditions; if yes, proceed to step S40; if no, proceed to step S80.

[0065] Step S40: Filter the target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules;

[0066] Step S50: Determine whether the target environmental parameters can be filtered out; if yes, proceed to step S60; if no, proceed to step S70.

[0067] Step S60: Adjust the target environmental parameters by using the air conditioner so that the final environmental data formed by the adjusted target environmental parameters and the parameter values ​​of other environmental parameters does not meet the preset conditions.

[0068] Step S70: Control the smart mosquito net to unfold; and

[0069] Step S80: Control the smart mosquito net to retract.

[0070] It is understood that before the interconnection control method of the present invention is executed, the smart mosquito net is usually in a retracted state, although some may be in an extended state.

[0071] Before the control method of the present invention is executed, if the smart mosquito net is in a retracted state, then in step S70, the step of controlling the smart mosquito net to unfold can specifically be: switching the smart mosquito net from the retracted state to the unfolded state. In step S80, the step of controlling the smart mosquito net to retract can specifically be: controlling the smart mosquito net to remain in the retracted state.

[0072] Before the control method of the present invention is executed, if the smart mosquito net is in the unfolded state, then in step S70, the step of controlling the unfolding of the smart mosquito net can specifically be: controlling the smart mosquito net to remain in the unfolded state. In step S80, the step of controlling the retraction of the smart mosquito net can specifically be: switching the smart mosquito net from the unfolded state to the retracted state.

[0073] In some embodiments, the aforementioned preset conditions are set such that the activity level of mosquitoes in the indoor environment is higher than a preset level.

[0074] The inventors recognized that under certain environmental conditions, mosquitoes are more active and rampant, increasing the likelihood of users being bitten; conversely, under other environmental conditions, mosquito activity is less suitable, causing them to avoid these conditions or become less active, thus reducing the likelihood of bites. Therefore, this invention pre-sets conditions that increase mosquito activity above a predetermined level. The initial environmental data is compared with these pre-set conditions, and the comparison determines whether the smart mosquito net needs to be deployed. Deploying the smart mosquito net is only possible when the initial environmental data meets these pre-set conditions, further enhancing the necessity of deployment and avoiding the unpleasant user experience caused by unnecessary deployment.

[0075] Understandably, different categories of environmental data will have different preset conditions.

[0076] In some embodiments, multiple environmental parameters include the temperature and humidity within the indoor environment, as well as the wind speed at the location of the person.

[0077] Furthermore, the aforementioned preset conditions are that the temperature in the indoor environment is higher than a preset temperature value, the humidity in the indoor environment is within a preset humidity range, and the wind speed at the location of the human body is lower than a preset wind speed value.

[0078] In other words, mosquitoes are only active when the indoor temperature is higher than the preset temperature and the humidity is within the preset range, exceeding the preset level, making it more likely that the user will be bitten. If any one of these conditions is not met (e.g., the temperature is lower than the preset temperature, the humidity is outside the preset range, or the wind speed at the user's location is higher than the preset wind speed), mosquito activity will be lower, and the user will be less likely to be bitten.

[0079] Specifically, the preset temperature value can be any temperature value between 25°C and 28°C.

[0080] Specifically, the aforementioned preset humidity range is expressed in terms of relative humidity, and the preset humidity range can be, for example, 60% to 80%.

[0081] Specifically, the preset wind speed value can be, for example, 0.4 to 0.6 m / s.

[0082] In some embodiments, step S40, which filters target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules, may specifically include:

[0083] Send a mosquito prevention prompt instruction to a terminal device that is connected to an air conditioner and / or a smart mosquito net; the mosquito prevention prompt instruction includes a variety of mosquito prevention measures, including unfolding the smart mosquito net and adjusting any one of a variety of environmental parameters;

[0084] If a mosquito prevention confirmation command is received from the terminal device, the mosquito prevention measures included in the command are retrieved; and

[0085] If the mosquito prevention measures included in the mosquito prevention determination instruction are to adjust one of multiple environmental parameters, then that environmental parameter shall be used as the target environmental parameter.

[0086] In other words, if a user wants to achieve mosquito prevention by adjusting one of the environmental parameters, that environmental parameter can be used as the target environmental parameter so that its value can be adjusted later.

[0087] Furthermore, if the mosquito prevention measure included in the mosquito prevention determination instruction is to deploy a smart mosquito net, then it is determined that no target environmental parameters have been selected.

[0088] When filtering for a target environmental parameter from multiple environmental parameters, a mosquito prevention prompt command is sent to the terminal device, allowing the user to understand various mosquito prevention measures and choose the one they prefer. If the user confirms the mosquito prevention command through the terminal device, and the command instructs adjustment of one of the environmental parameters, that parameter is set as the target environmental parameter for subsequent adjustment. If the user's confirmation command instructs the user to directly unfold the smart mosquito net, then by default, no target environmental parameter has been selected, and the smart mosquito net will be unfolded directly.

[0089] In summary, this invention is equivalent to executing corresponding mosquito prevention measures based on user feedback and mosquito prevention instructions, which highly meets user expectations and provides a good user experience.

[0090] In some embodiments, if the user does not provide any confirmation command for mosquito prevention, it can be assumed that no target environmental parameters were selected.

[0091] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating the process of filtering target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to a preset rule, based on an embodiment of the present invention. See also... Figure 2 The steps for filtering target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules may specifically include:

[0092] Step S401: Send a mosquito prevention reminder command to the terminal device connected to the air conditioner and / or smart mosquito net;

[0093] Step S402: Determine whether a mosquito prevention confirmation command has been received from the terminal device; if yes, proceed to step S403; if no, proceed to step S406.

[0094] Step S403: Obtain the mosquito prevention measures included in the mosquito prevention confirmation instruction;

[0095] Step S404: Determine whether the mosquito prevention measure involves adjusting one of multiple environmental parameters; if yes, proceed to step S405; if no, proceed to step S406.

[0096] Step S405: Use this environmental parameter as the target environmental parameter;

[0097] Step S406: It is determined that no target environment parameters were filtered.

[0098] In other embodiments, the preset conditions include parameter ranges corresponding to each environmental parameter. For example, when multiple environmental parameters include the temperature and humidity in the indoor environment and the wind speed at the location of the human body, the preset conditions include a temperature range higher than a preset temperature value, a humidity range corresponding to the humidity value as a preset humidity range, and a wind speed range corresponding to the wind speed at the location of the human body as a preset wind speed value.

[0099] In these embodiments, see Figure 3 The illustrated flowchart shows a process according to another embodiment of the present invention for filtering target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules. Step S40, which filters target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules, may specifically include:

[0100] Step S411: Calculate the absolute value of the difference between the initial measured value of each environmental parameter and the near endpoint values ​​of the parameter range corresponding to that environmental parameter under preset conditions.

[0101] Step S412: Calculate the ratio between the absolute value of the difference for each environmental parameter and the value at the nearest endpoint;

[0102] Step S413: Select the smallest ratio from the calculated ratios;

[0103] Step S414: Determine whether the minimum ratio is less than or equal to the preset percentage; if yes, proceed to step S415; if no, proceed to step S416.

[0104] Step S415: Take the environmental parameter corresponding to the minimum ratio as the target environmental parameter; and

[0105] Step S416: It is determined that no target environment parameters were selected.

[0106] It is understandable that each environmental parameter has endpoint values ​​within its preset range. For example, if the temperature range corresponding to temperature is higher than a preset temperature value, then that preset temperature value is one endpoint value of the parameter range corresponding to temperature within the preset conditions. The other endpoint value is theoretically infinite, or it can be understood as the other endpoint value not existing. Similarly, if the humidity range corresponding to humidity is a preset humidity range, then the minimum and maximum endpoint values ​​of this preset humidity range are the two endpoint values ​​of the parameter range corresponding to humidity within the preset conditions, respectively.

[0107] In step S411, the near endpoint value of the environmental parameter within the preset conditions refers to the endpoint value of the parameter range that is closer to the initial measured value of the environmental parameter. For example, when the preset temperature value is 25℃, 25℃ is a near endpoint value of the temperature parameter range compared to infinity; similarly, when the preset humidity range is 60% to 80% and the initial measured humidity value is 65%, 60% is a near endpoint value of the humidity parameter range; and again, when the preset humidity range is 60% to 80% and the initial measured humidity value is 75%, 80% is a near endpoint value of the humidity parameter range.

[0108] It can also be understood that the smaller the ratio of the absolute value of the difference between the initial measured value of an environmental parameter and the nearest endpoint of its corresponding parameter range under preset conditions to that nearest endpoint value, the closer the initial measured value of the environmental parameter is to the endpoint of its corresponding parameter range under preset conditions. This means the environmental parameter is easier to adjust outside its corresponding parameter range under preset conditions. For example, for temperature, if the ratio of the absolute value of the difference between its initial measured value and the nearest endpoint of its corresponding temperature parameter range under preset conditions to that nearest endpoint value is 1 / 10, and for humidity, if the ratio of the absolute value of the difference between its initial measured value and the nearest endpoint of its corresponding humidity parameter range under preset conditions to that nearest endpoint value is 1 / 8, then temperature is easier to adjust outside its corresponding parameter range than humidity.

[0109] When selecting target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters, this invention also selects the environmental parameter whose initial measurement value is closest to the endpoint of the parameter range in the preset conditions, and uses it as the target environmental parameter after reaching a certain degree of closeness. This facilitates subsequent adjustment of the target environmental parameter. On the one hand, it can quickly adjust the parameter value of the target environmental parameter to outside the corresponding parameter range in the preset conditions, thereby rapidly eliminating environmental factors that pose a risk of mosquito bites to users and improving mosquito prevention efficiency. On the other hand, it can also make the adjustment range of the target environmental parameter smaller, so that there will be no obvious difference in the user's physical sensation before and after the adjustment of the target environmental parameter, thus improving the user's comfort experience.

[0110] In step S414, if the minimum ratio is greater than a preset percentage, then other ratios are even greater than the preset percentage. That is, the ratio between the absolute value of the difference calculated for all environmental parameters and the corresponding near-endpoint value is relatively large, and the initial measured values ​​of all environmental parameters differ significantly from their corresponding parameter range endpoints in the preset conditions. Therefore, none of the environmental parameters should be adjusted, otherwise it will cause a strong difference in the user's physical sensation, leading to user discomfort. At this point, it is determined that no target environmental parameter has been selected, making mosquito prevention by unfolding a smart mosquito net a more reasonable design.

[0111] Figure 4 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating the process of selecting target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules, based on yet another embodiment of the present invention. (See also...) Figure 4 The steps for filtering target environmental parameters from multiple environmental parameters according to preset rules may specifically include:

[0112] Step S421: Send a mosquito prevention reminder command to the terminal device connected to the air conditioner and / or smart mosquito net;

[0113] Step S422: Determine whether a mosquito prevention confirmation command has been received from the terminal device; if yes, proceed to step S423; if no, proceed to step S427.

[0114] Step S423: Obtain the mosquito prevention measures included in the mosquito prevention confirmation instruction;

[0115] Step S424: Determine whether the mosquito prevention measure involves adjusting one of multiple environmental parameters; if yes, proceed to step S425; if no, proceed to step S426.

[0116] Step S425: Use this environmental parameter as the target environmental parameter;

[0117] Step S426: Determine that no target environment parameters were found.

[0118] Step S427: Calculate the absolute value of the difference between the initial measured value of each environmental parameter and the near endpoint values ​​of the parameter range corresponding to that environmental parameter under preset conditions;

[0119] Step S428: Calculate the ratio between the absolute value of the difference corresponding to each environmental parameter and the value of the nearest endpoint;

[0120] Step S429: Select the smallest ratio from the calculated ratios;

[0121] Step S430: Determine whether the minimum ratio is less than or equal to a preset percentage; if yes, proceed to step S431; if no, proceed to step S426; and

[0122] Step S431: Take the environmental parameter corresponding to the minimum ratio as the target environmental parameter.

[0123] That is, in some other embodiments, it can be Figure 2 The illustrated embodiments and Figure 3 The illustrated embodiments are combined. The difference is that, when the user does not provide any confirmation command for mosquito prevention, it does not directly default to the assumption that no target environmental parameters have been selected, but rather... Figure 3The method shown in the embodiment further filters the target environmental parameters, increasing the probability of selecting the target environmental parameters and reducing the chance of directly unfolding the smart mosquito net, thus reducing the unpleasant user experience caused by the unnecessary unfolding of the smart mosquito net.

[0124] In some embodiments, the preset conditions include parameter ranges corresponding to each environmental parameter. For example, when multiple environmental parameters include the temperature and humidity in the indoor environment and the wind speed at the location of the human body, the preset conditions include a temperature range higher than a preset temperature value, a humidity range corresponding to the humidity as a preset humidity range, and a wind speed range corresponding to the wind speed at the location of the human body as a preset wind speed value.

[0125] Furthermore, the step of adjusting the target environmental parameters by using an air conditioner so that the final environmental data formed by the adjusted target environmental parameters and other environmental parameters does not meet the preset conditions may specifically include:

[0126] The air conditioner is used to adjust the value of the target environmental parameters to a value outside the range corresponding to the preset conditions.

[0127] In other words, the value of the target environmental parameter after adjustment by the air conditioner is not within the parameter range corresponding to the target environmental parameter in the preset conditions. Therefore, regardless of the current value of other environmental parameters, the final environmental data formed by the value of the target environmental parameter after adjustment and the value of other environmental parameters will not meet the preset conditions. As a result, there is no risk of users being bitten by mosquitoes and there is no need to unfold the smart mosquito net.

[0128] In some embodiments, step S20 of acquiring environmental data within an indoor space may specifically include:

[0129] The environmental data of the indoor space is obtained by the environmental parameter detection module set on the air conditioner.

[0130] Understandably, to facilitate air conditioning, some air conditioners are equipped with various environmental parameter detection modules. For example, some air conditioners typically have temperature sensors to detect indoor ambient temperature, humidity sensors to detect indoor ambient humidity, and even gas sensors to detect the concentration of target gases in the indoor environment.

[0131] For air conditioners with built-in environmental parameter detection modules, the environmental data of the indoor space can be fully utilized by the built-in environmental parameter detection modules, eliminating the need for additional air detection modules and reducing costs.

[0132] In other embodiments, environmental data within the indoor environment can be acquired by environmental parameter detection devices distributed within the indoor environment space and sent to the interconnection control device used to implement the above-described interconnection control method.

[0133] In some embodiments, the aforementioned human rest signal is generated when a human detection device installed on the air conditioner detects the presence of a human on the bed.

[0134] To facilitate intelligent control, some air conditioners are equipped with human body detection devices to intelligently detect the presence and location of a human body. For air conditioners with built-in human body detection devices, the presence of a human body on the bed can be fully utilized, eliminating the need for additional detection devices and reducing costs.

[0135] Specifically, the human body detection device can be, for example, a radar detection device, an infrared detection device, etc.

[0136] In other embodiments, the aforementioned human rest signal may also be generated when a pressure sensor installed on the bed detects that the pressure acting on the bed is greater than a preset pressure value.

[0137] In other words, some beds can be equipped with smart mattresses, which are equipped with pressure sensors. These pressure sensors are interconnected with the aforementioned smart mosquito nets and air conditioners to send the pressure values ​​they detect to the smart mosquito nets and / or air conditioners.

[0138] In some alternative embodiments, the aforementioned human rest signal may also be generated automatically under other circumstances, as long as it accurately indicates that the user is resting on the bed.

[0139] The present invention also provides an interconnection control device for an air conditioner and a smart mosquito net, wherein the smart mosquito net and the air conditioner are located in the same indoor environment space.

[0140] Figure 5 This is a schematic structural block diagram of an interconnect control device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The interconnect control device 20 of the present invention includes a processor 21 and a memory 22. The memory 22 stores a machine-executable program 23, and when the machine-executable program 23 is executed by the processor 21, it is used to implement the interconnect control method described in any of the above embodiments.

[0141] Specifically, processor 21 can be a central processing unit (CPU) or a digital processing unit, etc. Processor 21 sends and receives data via a communication interface. Memory 22 is used to store the program executed by processor 21. Memory 22 can be any medium capable of carrying or storing desired program code in the form of instructions or data structures, and accessible by a computer; it can also be a combination of multiple memories. The aforementioned machine-executable program 23 can be downloaded from a computer-readable storage medium to the corresponding computing / processing device or via a network (e.g., the Internet, local area network, wide area network, and / or wireless network) to a computer or external storage device.

[0142] As mentioned above, the interconnection control method between the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net in any of the above embodiments is described from the perspective of the interconnection control device 20, that is, the interconnection control device 20 performs the relevant steps. In a specific embodiment, the interconnection control device 20 is data-connected to the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net. It can be equipped with network-side devices such as servers and cloud devices to obtain various data of the set space through the network and realize relevant adjustments by remotely sending commands to the air conditioner and the smart mosquito net.

[0143] The interconnected control device 20 can also be various centralized control equipment, arranged in a designated space, to control air conditioners and smart mosquito nets. The data connection methods between the interconnected control device 20 and the air conditioner and smart mosquito net include, but are not limited to, wireless transmission, infrared transmission, and ultrasonic transmission.

[0144] In some embodiments, the interconnected control device 20 may also be part of the air conditioner, located inside the air conditioner, and connected to the air conditioner's own controller. For example, the air conditioner may have a dedicated interconnected control device inside, which works in conjunction with a controller dedicated to performing component control.

[0145] The present invention also provides an air conditioner. Figure 6 This is a schematic structural block diagram of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. The air conditioner 1 has the interconnection control device 20 described in the above embodiment. That is, the interconnection control device 20 may not be located outside the air conditioner 1, but may be located on the air conditioner 1. The interconnection control device 20 and the controller of the air conditioner 1 itself may be the same component, that is, the interconnection control device 20 is used to control the operation of the air conditioner 1 itself, and also to receive signals from the smart mosquito net and send signals to the smart mosquito net.

[0146] Alternatively, the interconnected control device 20 and the air conditioner's own controller can be different components. That is, the controller is used to control the operation of the air conditioner itself, and the interconnected control device 20 is used to receive signals from the smart mosquito net and send signals to the smart mosquito net. However, the interconnected control device 20 also communicates with the controller to receive signals from the air conditioner's own controller and send signals to the controller.
