Specifically, the interconnection control method of the present invention first determines the state of the air conditioner when the smart mosquito net is unfolded. If the air conditioner is in operation, in order to ensure the cooling effect, the indoor environment space is usually relatively closed, so it is not suitable to adjust the opening and closing state of the smart door and the smart window. If the air conditioner is in a shutdown state, it means that the user has no cooling demand. For this reason, the present invention only determines whether the first condition of opening the smart door and the second condition of opening the smart window are met when the air conditioner is in a shutdown state. If any one of them is met, the corresponding smart door or smart window can be opened to achieve the purpose of ventilating the indoor environment space; if both conditions are not met, the environmental parameters in the indoor environment space cannot be effectively adjusted by the smart door and the smart window. At this time, the air conditioner is started and operated in a natural air supply mode to blow natural wind to the indoor environment space, which can also effectively adjust the environmental parameters in the indoor environment space. It can be seen that the present invention realizes the purpose of automatically adjusting the environmental parameters in the indoor environment space through the air conditioner, the smart door or the smart window when the smart mosquito net is unfolded through the interconnection between the air conditioner and the smart devices including the smart mosquito net, the smart door and the smart window, and effectively alleviates the uncomfortable experience such as stuffiness caused to the user by the unfolding of the smart mosquito net, and has a high degree of intelligence.
[0062] In addition, the interconnection control method of the present invention first determines whether the first condition for opening the smart door and the second condition for opening the smart window are met, so as to alleviate the discomfort experience such as stuffiness caused by the deployment of the smart mosquito net to the user by opening the smart door and / or smart window as much as possible without affecting the user's rest. The air conditioner is started only when both the first and second conditions are not met, and it is operated in the natural air supply mode. On the one hand, it ensures that the user is not disturbed by the opening of the smart window or smart door body, and on the other hand, it also reduces the probability of starting the air conditioner and saves energy. In addition, in the natural air supply mode, the air flow blown out by the air conditioner is natural wind without heat exchange, so it meets the initial demand of the user not to cool, and only provides an air flow (similar to a fan), and thereby alleviates the discomfort experience such as stuffiness caused by the deployment of the smart mosquito net to the user.

[0071] The present invention firstly provides an interconnection control method between an air conditioner and a smart device, which can realize the smart interconnection between the air conditioner and the smart device, provides a scenario for the interconnection of smart home appliances, and effectively improves the degree of intelligence.
[0072] Specifically, the smart devices include smart mosquito nets, smart doors and smart windows in the same indoor environment space as the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner can work together with multiple smart devices to jointly adjust the environmental parameters in the indoor environment space and improve the intelligent experience of users in the indoor environment space.
[0073] It should be noted that the methods of the following embodiments of the present invention are all described from the side of the interconnection control device between the air conditioner and the smart device, that is, the relevant steps are executed by the control device. In addition, the premise for implementing the following embodiments of the present invention is that the air conditioner and the smart device are interconnected. Specifically, an interconnection control device between the air conditioner and the smart device can be provided between the air conditioner and the smart device, through which the signal sent by the air conditioner and the smart device can be received, and the signal can be sent to the air conditioner and the smart device. The control device can be provided separately or inside the air conditioner.
[0074] The smart device in this embodiment has the characteristic of being smart, precisely because it can send signals to the control device as mentioned above, and can receive signals sent by the control device. Specifically, it can be achieved by setting a controller on the smart device. Similarly, the air conditioner can also be provided with its own controller, so that it can send signals to the control device and receive signals sent by the control device.
[0075] In particular, the interconnection control method of the air conditioner and the smart device of the present invention includes:
[0076] Receiving a mosquito net deployment signal; the mosquito net deployment signal is generated when the smart mosquito net performs an deployment action in response to the received deployment start instruction;
[0077] Determine whether the air conditioner is in operation;
[0078] If not, it is determined whether the first condition for opening the smart door is met, and whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met;
[0079] If at least one of the first condition and the second condition is met, the corresponding smart door and / or smart window is controlled to open; and
[0080] If both the first condition and the second condition are not satisfied, the air conditioner is started and controlled to operate in a natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange to the indoor environment space.
[0081] The interconnection control method of the present invention first determines the state of the air conditioner when the smart mosquito net is unfolded. If the air conditioner is in operation, in order to ensure the cooling effect, the indoor environment space is usually relatively closed, so it is not suitable to adjust the opening and closing state of the smart door and the smart window, so it is not suitable to adopt the subsequent execution logic. If the air conditioner is in a shutdown state, it means that the user has no demand for cooling. For this reason, the present invention only determines whether the first condition of opening the smart door and the second condition of opening the smart window are met when the air conditioner is in a shutdown state. If any one of them is met, the purpose of ventilating the indoor environment space can be achieved by opening the corresponding smart door or smart window; if both conditions are not met, the environmental parameters in the indoor environment space cannot be effectively adjusted by the smart door and the smart window. At this time, the air conditioner is started and operated in a natural air supply mode to blow natural wind to the indoor environment space, which can also effectively adjust the environmental parameters in the indoor environment space.
[0082] It can be seen that the present invention realizes the purpose of automatically adjusting the environmental parameters in the indoor environment space through the air conditioner, the smart door or the smart window when the smart mosquito net is unfolded through the interconnection between the air conditioner and the smart devices including the smart mosquito net, the smart door and the smart window, and effectively alleviates the uncomfortable experience such as stuffiness caused to the user by the unfolding of the smart mosquito net, and has a high degree of intelligence.
[0083] In addition, the interconnection control method of the present invention first determines whether the first condition of opening the smart door and the second condition of opening the smart window are met, so as to relieve the discomfort such as stuffiness caused by the deployment of the smart mosquito net to the user by opening the smart door and / or smart window as much as possible without affecting the user's rest. The air conditioner is started only when both the first condition and the second condition are not met, and it is operated in the natural air supply mode, which ensures that the user is not disturbed by the opening of the smart window or smart door, and on the other hand, reduces the probability of starting the air conditioner and saves energy consumption.
[0084] In addition, in the natural air supply mode, the airflow blown out by the air conditioner is natural wind without heat exchange, thus meeting the user's initial demand for no cooling. It only provides one air flow (similar to a fan), and thereby alleviates the stuffiness and other discomforts brought to the user by the deployment of the smart mosquito net, ensuring the user's comfort experience.
[0085] In some embodiments, when the air conditioner is in a shutdown state, the interconnection control method of the present invention may specifically include:
[0086] According to the preset order, first determine whether the first condition for opening the smart door is met;
[0087] If the first condition is met, the smart door is controlled to open;
[0088] If the first condition is not met, then continue to determine whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met;
[0089] If the second condition is met, the smart window is controlled to open; and
[0090] If the second condition is not met, the air conditioner is started and controlled to operate in a natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange to the indoor environment space.
[0091] That is, when determining whether the first condition for opening the smart door is satisfied and whether the second condition for opening the smart window is satisfied, there is a pre-set sequence. In one embodiment, it is possible to determine whether the first condition is satisfied first, and only when the first condition is not satisfied, determine whether the second condition is satisfied.
[0092] Specifically, Figure 1 is a schematic flow chart of an interconnection control method of an air conditioner and a smart device according to an embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 , the interconnection control method of the present invention comprises:
[0093] Step S10, receiving a mosquito net deployment signal;
[0094] Step S20, determining whether the air conditioner is in operation; if not, proceeding to step S310;
[0095] Step S310, determining whether the first condition for opening the smart door is met; if so, proceeding to step S410; if not, proceeding to step S510;
[0096] Step S410, controlling the smart door to open;
[0097] Step S510, determining whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met; if so, proceeding to step S610; if not, proceeding to step S710;
[0098] Step S610, controlling the smart window to open; and
[0099] Step S710, starting the air conditioner and controlling the air conditioner to operate in a natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange to the indoor environment space.
[0100] The inventors realize that the smart door separates the indoor environment space from other indoor spaces (such as the living room, corridor, etc.). Other spaces may be relatively closed or connected to the outdoors, so the ventilation effect in the indoor environment space may be different after the smart door is opened. If other spaces on the other side of the smart door are relatively closed, then after the smart door is opened, the ventilation effect of the indoor environment space may not be good, and airflow cannot be maintained, and there is no way to effectively alleviate the discomfort of the user such as stuffiness caused by the deployment of the smart mosquito net.
[0101] To this end, in some embodiments, after controlling the smart door to open, the interconnection control method of the present invention further includes:
[0102] Get the internal wind speed in the indoor environment space;
[0103] If the internal wind speed is greater than or equal to the preset wind speed value, the current state is maintained;
[0104] If the internal wind speed is less than the preset wind speed value, continue to determine whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met;
[0105] If the second condition is met, the smart window is controlled to open; and
[0106] If the second condition is not met, the air conditioner is started and controlled to operate in a natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange to the indoor environment space.
[0107] When the internal wind speed in the indoor environment space is greater than or equal to the preset wind speed value, it means that after the smart door is opened, a more obvious airflow circulation effect is achieved in the indoor environment space. At this time, the current state can be maintained, that is, there is no need to adjust the state of the smart door, smart window and air conditioner.
[0108] When the internal wind speed in the indoor environment space is less than the preset wind speed value, it means that after the smart door is opened, the air flow effect in the indoor environment space is very small, and other measures need to be taken to effectively alleviate the discomfort experience brought to the user by the deployment of the smart mosquito net. For this reason, it is further judged whether the second condition of opening the smart window is met at this time, so as to selectively open the smart window or turn on the natural air supply mode of the air conditioner to ensure that a significant ventilation effect can be formed in the indoor environment space, thereby improving the comfort experience of the user inside the smart mosquito net.
[0109] Specifically, Figure 2 is a schematic flow chart of an interconnection control method of an air conditioner and a smart device according to a second embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 2 , the interconnection control method of the present invention comprises:
[0110] Step S10, receiving a mosquito net deployment signal;
[0111] Step S20, determining whether the air conditioner is in operation; if not, proceeding to step S310;
[0112] Step S310, determining whether the first condition for opening the smart door is met; if so, proceeding to step S410; if not, proceeding to step S510;
[0113] Step S410, controlling the smart door to open;
[0114] Step S411, obtaining the internal wind speed in the indoor environment space;
[0115] Step S412, determining whether the internal wind speed is greater than or equal to a preset wind speed value; if so, proceeding to step S413; if not, proceeding to step S510;
[0116] Step S413, maintaining the current state;
[0117] Step S510, determining whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met; if so, proceeding to step S610; if not, proceeding to step S710;
[0118] Step S610, controlling the smart window to open; and
[0119] Step S710, starting the air conditioner and controlling the air conditioner to operate in a natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange to the indoor environment space.
[0120] In some embodiments, the step of determining whether the first condition for opening the smart door is met may specifically include:
[0121] Detect whether there is a human body in the space on the other side of the smart door opposite to the indoor environment space;
[0122] If so, it is determined that the first condition is not satisfied; and
[0123] If not, it is determined that the first condition is met.
[0124] If there is a human body in the space on the other side of the smart door opposite to the indoor environment space (e.g., living room), opening the smart door may cause mutual interference, so it is determined that the first condition is not met, that is, the smart door cannot be opened. If there is no human body in the space on the other side of the smart door opposite to the indoor environment space, opening the smart door will not cause any interference to the user, and the smart door can be opened.
[0125] In some embodiments, the step of determining whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met may specifically include:
[0126] Obtaining the internal temperature and internal wind speed in the indoor environment space, and the external temperature and external wind speed in the outdoor environment space;
[0127] calculating the temperature difference between the inside temperature and the outside temperature, and the wind speed difference between the inside wind speed and the outside wind speed;
[0128] If the temperature difference is less than or equal to the preset temperature difference value, and the wind speed difference is less than or equal to the preset wind speed difference value, it is determined that the second condition is met;
[0129] If the temperature difference is greater than the preset temperature difference value, or the wind speed difference is greater than the preset wind speed difference value, it is determined that the second condition is not met.
[0130] If the temperature difference between the internal temperature and the external temperature is small, and the wind speed difference between the internal wind speed and the external wind speed is also small, it means that the environmental parameters of the indoor environment space and the outdoor environment space are not much different. At this time, opening the smart window will not cause a large difference in physical sensation to the user, so it is more suitable to open the smart window.
[0131] If the temperature difference between the internal temperature and the external temperature is large, or the wind speed difference between the internal wind speed and the external wind speed is large, it means that the indoor environment space and the outdoor environment space have a large difference in temperature or wind speed. Opening the smart window will cause large temperature fluctuations or wind speed fluctuations in the indoor environment space, which will bring a large difference in physical sensation to users. Therefore, it is not suitable to open the smart window.
[0132] In some embodiments, when the air conditioner is in a shutdown state, the interconnection control method of the present invention specifically includes:
[0133] First determine whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met according to the preset order;
[0134] If the second condition is met, the smart window is controlled to open;
[0135] If the second condition is not met, continue to determine whether the first condition for opening the smart door is met;
[0136] If the first condition is met, the smart door is controlled to open; and
[0137] If the first condition is not met, the air conditioner is started and controlled to operate in a natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange to the indoor environment space.
[0138] That is, when determining whether the first condition for opening the smart door is satisfied and whether the second condition for opening the smart window is satisfied, there is a pre-set order. In one embodiment, it is possible to determine whether the second condition is satisfied first, and only when the second condition is not satisfied, determine whether the first condition is satisfied.
[0139] Specifically, Figure 3 is a schematic flow chart of an interconnection control method of an air conditioner and a smart device according to a third embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 3 , the interconnection control method of the present invention comprises:
[0140] Step S10, receiving a mosquito net deployment signal;
[0141] Step S20, determining whether the air conditioner is in operation; if not, proceeding to step S320;
[0142] Step S320, determining whether the second condition for opening the smart window is met; then proceeding to step S420; if not, then proceeding to step S520;
[0143] Step S420, controlling the smart window to open;
[0144] Step S520, continue to determine whether the first condition for opening the smart door is met; if so, go to step S620; if not, go to step S720;
[0145] Step S620, controlling the smart door to open; and
[0146] Step S720, start the air conditioner and control the air conditioner to operate in a natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange to the indoor environment space.
[0147] The inventors realize that the smart door separates the indoor environment space from other indoor spaces (such as the living room, corridor, etc.). Other spaces may be relatively closed or connected to the outdoors, so the ventilation effect in the indoor environment space may be different after the smart door is opened. If other spaces on the other side of the smart door are relatively closed, then after the smart door is opened, the ventilation effect of the indoor environment space may not be good, and airflow cannot be maintained, and there is no way to effectively alleviate the discomfort of the user such as stuffiness caused by the deployment of the smart mosquito net.
[0148] To this end, in some embodiments, after controlling the smart door to open, the interconnection control method of the present invention further includes:
[0149] Get the internal wind speed in the indoor environment space;
[0150] If the internal wind speed is greater than the preset wind speed value, the current state is maintained;
[0151] If the internal wind speed is less than the preset wind speed value, the air conditioner is started and controlled to operate in natural air supply mode to blow natural air without heat exchange into the indoor environment space.
[0152] When the internal wind speed in the indoor environment space is greater than or equal to the preset wind speed value, it means that after the smart door is opened, a more obvious airflow circulation effect is achieved in the indoor environment space. At this time, the current state can be maintained, that is, there is no need to adjust the state of the smart door, smart window and air conditioner.
[0153] When the internal wind speed in the indoor environment is less than the preset wind speed value, it means that after the smart door is opened, the air flow in the indoor environment is very weak, and other measures need to be taken to effectively alleviate the discomfort caused by the deployment of the smart mosquito net to the user. However, it is not advisable to open the smart window at this time, and only the natural air supply mode of the air conditioner can be turned on to ensure that the indoor environment can form a significant ventilation effect and improve the comfort experience of the user inside the smart mosquito net.
