[0043] The embodiments of the present specification provide a control method, device, electrical equipment and medium for an air-conditioning indoor unit, the method comprising: obtaining a first parameter value of a target parameter of a first air-conditioning indoor unit; if the first air-conditioning indoor unit receives a second parameter value sent by a second air-conditioning indoor unit, determining a target distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit, wherein the second parameter value is a parameter value adjusted by a user for the target parameter of the second air-conditioning indoor unit; based on the first parameter value, the second parameter value, the target distance and a preset distance, determining a third parameter value of the target parameter of the first air-conditioning indoor unit, so that the first air-conditioning indoor unit operates according to the third parameter value.
[0044] According to the solution in the embodiments of the present specification, if the user adjusts the target parameter of the second air-conditioning indoor unit, the second air-conditioning indoor unit sends the second parameter value adjusted by the user to other air-conditioning indoor units. If the first air-conditioning indoor unit receives the second parameter value sent by the second air-conditioning indoor unit, it adjusts its own parameter value according to the second parameter value. In this way, synchronous adjustment of multiple air-conditioning indoor units is achieved without the user having to manually adjust each air-conditioning indoor unit, thereby reducing user operations. In addition, through the synchronous adjustment of multiple air-conditioning indoor units, the surrounding environment can meet user needs more quickly, effectively improving the user experience.

[0047] like Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an indoor unit of an air conditioner provided in an embodiment of the present specification, and the method comprises the following steps:
[0048] Step S101: obtaining a first parameter value of a target parameter of a first air conditioner indoor unit;
[0049] Step S102: if the first air conditioner receives a second parameter value sent by the second air conditioner, determining a target distance between the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner, wherein the second parameter value is a parameter value adjusted by a user for a target parameter of the second air conditioner;
[0050] Step S103: Based on the first parameter value, the second parameter value, the target distance and the preset distance, a third parameter value of the target parameter of the first air conditioner is determined so that the first air conditioner operates according to the third parameter value.
[0051] The method provided in the embodiments of this specification can be applied to a terminal device, for example, a one-to-many air conditioner, a server connected to the terminal device for communication, or a system composed of a terminal device and a server, without limitation. For ease of explanation, the method provided in the embodiments of this specification is described in detail below by taking the application of a one-to-many air conditioner as an example.
[0052] It should be noted that a one-to-many air conditioner may include multiple air-conditioning indoor units. The installation position of each air-conditioning indoor unit in the space can be selected according to actual needs. Signals can be transmitted between the multiple air-conditioning indoor units through wireless communication methods such as radar, infrared, Bluetooth, etc., or they can communicate through wired methods, which is not limited here.
[0053] In step S101, the first air conditioner indoor unit may be any air conditioner indoor unit in a one-to-many air conditioner, and the target parameter may be any parameter that can be adjusted during the operation of the air conditioner indoor unit. The target parameter includes but is not limited to parameters such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, windshield, and wind direction. The first parameter value may be the parameter value of the target parameter that the first air conditioner indoor unit is running before receiving the parameter values sent by other air conditioner indoor units.
[0054] In response to whether the user adjusts the target parameter of the first air-conditioning indoor unit, the first parameter value may be determined by: if the first air-conditioning indoor unit receives an adjustment instruction from the user for the target parameter, the adjustment parameter value corresponding to the adjustment instruction is used as the first parameter value; or if the first air-conditioning indoor unit does not receive an adjustment instruction from the user for the target parameter, the default parameter value of the target parameter corresponding to the first air-conditioning indoor unit is used as the first parameter value.
[0055] Specifically, if the first air conditioner receives an adjustment instruction from the user for the target parameter, for example, when the target parameter is a set temperature, the user can adjust the first air conditioner through a remote control, a control panel, or voice control. In some embodiments, if the user adjusts the temperature of the first air conditioner through a remote control, the user can enter a specific set temperature value. After the user's input operation is completed, the remote control can generate an adjustment instruction and send the adjustment instruction to the first air conditioner. When the first air conditioner receives the adjustment instruction, it parses the adjustment instruction and obtains the set temperature value entered by the user as the first parameter value. In other embodiments, if the user adjusts the temperature of the first air conditioner through voice control, the adjustment instruction can be a voice control instruction of the user, such as "adjust the temperature to 26°C". After receiving the adjustment instruction, the first air conditioner uses the set temperature carried in the adjustment instruction as the first parameter value.
[0056] If the first air conditioner indoor unit does not receive the user's adjustment instruction for the target parameter, the first parameter value may be the default parameter value of the first air conditioner indoor unit, wherein the default parameter value may be the parameter value of the current operation of the air conditioner indoor unit, or a parameter value pre-set in the air conditioner indoor unit system, etc., which is not limited here.
[0057] In some embodiments, if the first air conditioner is in operation, the parameter value of the current operation can be used as the first parameter value. Still taking the set temperature as an example, if the first air conditioner is currently operating at a set temperature of 27°C, the first parameter value is 27°C. In other embodiments, if the first air conditioner is in standby or shutdown state, the parameter value of the default operation of the next startup stored in the first air conditioner can be used as the first parameter value.
[0058] In the embodiment of the specification, if the first air conditioner receives an adjustment instruction from the user for the target parameter, the following steps may also be included: determining a first time when the adjustment instruction is received; determining a second time when the first air conditioner receives the second parameter value; if the time difference between the second time and the first time is greater than a preset time, determining a target distance between the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner. If the time difference between the second time and the first time is less than or equal to the preset time, controlling the first air conditioner to operate according to the adjustment parameter value corresponding to the adjustment instruction.
[0059] Specifically, if the first air conditioner receives an adjustment instruction, it can be operated for a preset time according to the user's adjustment instruction. The preset time can be set according to actual needs. For example, the preset time can be 10 minutes, 20 minutes, etc. Taking the target parameter as the set temperature as an example, if the user sends an adjustment instruction to adjust the temperature of the first air conditioner to 26°C through the remote control, after the first air conditioner receives the adjustment instruction, it can operate according to the set temperature of 26°C, and record the first time when the adjustment instruction is received. During the operation of the first air conditioner at 26°C, if the second air conditioner also receives the user's adjustment instruction for the target parameter, the second air conditioner will send the second parameter value corresponding to the adjustment instruction to other air conditioners. When the first air conditioner receives the second parameter value sent by the second air conditioner, it records the second time when the second parameter value is received, and calculates the time difference between the second time and the first time. If the time difference is less than or equal to the preset time, the first air conditioner does not adjust the current target parameter and still operates at 26°C, that is, it operates according to the user's adjustment instruction. If the time difference is greater than the preset time length, it indicates that there has been a long time interval since the user's last adjustment. At this time, the target parameter of the first air conditioner indoor unit can be adjusted according to the second parameter value first, and step S102 can be continued.
[0060] In addition, when the first air conditioner receives an adjustment instruction from the user for a target parameter, it can also send the adjustment parameter value corresponding to the adjustment instruction to other air conditioners so that other air conditioners can determine whether to adjust their own target parameters according to the received adjustment parameter value.
[0061] In step S102, the second air conditioner indoor unit may be any indoor unit in the one-to-many air conditioner except the first air conditioner indoor unit. It should be noted that when the first air conditioner indoor unit and the second air conditioner indoor unit are close to each other, when the user adjusts the target parameters of the second air conditioner indoor unit, the target parameters of the first air conditioner indoor unit can be adjusted in a coordinated manner so that the environment can quickly meet the target parameter requirements set by the user.
[0062] For example, there are multiple air conditioners in the same space, such as in a large office area. Due to the large area, multiple air conditioners can be set up to adjust the environmental parameters. For several air conditioners that are close to each other, if the user adjusts one of the air conditioners, the air conditioners that are close to each other can be adjusted synchronously, so that the user does not need to manually adjust each air conditioner in turn, and the environment where these air conditioners are located can be quickly adjusted.
[0063] In the embodiments of the present specification, the target distance between the first air conditioner indoor unit and the second air conditioner indoor unit can be determined in a variety of ways. In some embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit can be equipped with a ranging sensor such as a radar, and the target distance between the indoor units can be detected by the ranging sensor. In other embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit or the server can pre-store an indoor unit distance table, and the indoor unit distance table can include the distances between all air conditioner indoor units in the environmental area. When the first air conditioner indoor unit receives the second parameter value sent by the second air conditioner indoor unit, the target distance between the first air conditioner indoor unit and the second air conditioner indoor unit can be obtained by querying the locally stored indoor unit distance table or sending a query request for the indoor unit distance table to the server.
[0064] In step S103, the target parameter of the first air conditioner can be adjusted according to the first parameter value, the second parameter value, the target distance and the preset distance. It should be noted that the preset distance can be set according to actual needs, for example, the preset distance can be 30m, 50m, etc. Since the user has adjusted the second air conditioner, the second air conditioner is a device that acts on the area where the user is located. If the target distance between the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner is within the preset distance, it means that the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner are close, that is, they can be regarded as devices that act together in the area where the user is located. In order to make the area quickly meet the needs of the user, the parameter value of the first air conditioner can be adjusted according to the second parameter value of the second air conditioner. If the target distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit is greater than the preset distance, and the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit are far apart, then adjusting the first air-conditioning indoor unit may not have much impact on the area where the users are located, and since the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit are far apart, the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit may act on different user areas. Therefore, in order to avoid affecting the environment of other users, the proportion of the first air-conditioning indoor unit adjusted with the second air-conditioning indoor unit can be appropriately reduced, or the first air-conditioning indoor unit can be not adjusted.
[0065] For example, if there are multiple air conditioners in a large office area, if the user adjusts the temperature of the air conditioner P in the area where the user is located, the air conditioners in the area where the user is located can be automatically adjusted synchronously, wherein the distance between the air conditioners that are automatically adjusted synchronously and the air conditioners P is less than or equal to the preset distance. For the air conditioner Q that is farther away, since the air conditioner Q has a small impact on the area where the user is located and is likely to be responsible for the environment adjustment of other areas, even if the air conditioner Q receives the parameter value sent by the air conditioner P, the target parameter of the air conditioner Q is not adjusted.
[0066] In some embodiments, step S103 can be implemented by the following steps: if the target distance is less than the preset distance, determining the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit based on the target distance and the preset distance; determining the third parameter value based on the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit, the first parameter value and the second parameter value.
[0067] Specifically, when the first air conditioner receives the second parameter value sent by the second air conditioner, if the target distance between the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner is less than the preset distance, the correlation coefficient r between the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner can be calculated by the following formula:
[0068] r = 1-target distance / preset distance
[0069] The third parameter value can be obtained by the following formula:
[0070] Third parameter value = first parameter value + r (second parameter value - first parameter value)
[0071] For example, the user sends a temperature adjustment command to the second air conditioner (air conditioner A) through a remote control or control panel, and sets the temperature to 26°C. After receiving the command, air conditioner A operates at 26°C and sends the second parameter value to other surrounding air conditioners through radar. The first air conditioner (air conditioner B) receives the second parameter value sent by air conditioner A and determines the target distance between air conditioners A and B. If the target distance is 10m and the preset distance is 50m, the correlation coefficient between the two is calculated by the above formula: r=1-10 / 50=0.8. If the current device temperature of air conditioner B is 30°C, that is, the first parameter value is 30°C, then the third parameter value of air conditioner B after automatic adjustment is:
[0072] 30+0.8×(26-30)=26.8℃
[0073] Therefore, the set temperature of the first air conditioner indoor unit can be adjusted to the third parameter value, that is, 26.8° C. If the adjustment accuracy of the first air conditioner indoor unit cannot be adjusted to 26.8° C., the target parameter can be adjusted to the parameter value closest to 26.8° C. according to the accuracy of the first air conditioner indoor unit, which is not limited here.
[0074] In the embodiment of the present specification, after determining the third parameter value, the first air-conditioning indoor unit operates with the third parameter value. If the first air-conditioning indoor unit receives a fourth parameter value sent by the third air-conditioning indoor unit during the operation of the first air-conditioning indoor unit with the third parameter value, the target parameter of the first air-conditioning indoor unit can be continuously adjusted. The specific steps are as follows: during the operation of the first air-conditioning indoor unit with the third parameter value, if the first air-conditioning indoor unit receives a fourth parameter value sent by the third air-conditioning indoor unit, the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the third air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the fourth parameter value is a parameter value adjusted by the user for the target parameter of the third air-conditioning indoor unit; if the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the third air-conditioning indoor unit is less than the preset distance, the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the third air-conditioning indoor unit is determined based on the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the third air-conditioning indoor unit and the preset distance; based on the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the third air-conditioning indoor unit, the third parameter value and the fourth parameter value, the fifth parameter value of the first air-conditioning indoor unit is determined so that the first air-conditioning indoor unit operates according to the fifth parameter value.
[0075] For example, the user sends temperature adjustment instructions to the second air conditioner (air conditioner C) and the third air conditioner (air conditioner D) through the remote control or control panel, and adjusts the set temperature of air conditioner C to 26°C (the second parameter value) and the set temperature of air conditioner D to 28°C (the fourth parameter value). Air conditioners C and D save the set temperatures they receive for a preset time (e.g., 10 minutes) and keep the set temperatures unchanged within the preset time.
[0076] Since the user first adjusts the set temperature of the air conditioner C and then adjusts the set temperature of the air conditioner D, after receiving the temperature adjustment instruction, the air conditioner C first sends the second parameter value of 26°C to the surrounding air conditioners. Therefore, the first air conditioner (air conditioner E) will first receive the second parameter value sent by the air conditioner C. When the air conditioner E receives the second parameter value, the correlation coefficient between it and the air conditioner C can be calculated according to the above method. If the distance between the air conditioner E and the air conditioner C is 10m and the preset distance is 50m, the correlation coefficient between the air conditioner E and the air conditioner C is r1=1-10 / 50=0.8. If the first parameter value of the air conditioner E is 30°C, the temperature value of the air conditioner E after adjusting with the air conditioner C is calculated as: 30+0.8×(26-30)=26.8°C. If the adjustment accuracy of the first air conditioner is 0.5°C, the third parameter value can be set to 26.5°C, and the first air conditioner E can operate at 26.5°C.
[0077] Since the user adjusted the temperature of air-conditioning indoor unit C and then adjusted air-conditioning indoor unit D, after receiving the temperature adjustment instruction, air-conditioning indoor unit D sent the fourth parameter value of 28°C to the surrounding indoor units. During the operation of the first air-conditioning indoor unit E at 26.5°C, if the fourth parameter value sent by air-conditioning indoor unit D is received, it can be adjusted again according to the fourth parameter value based on the third parameter value currently running. Specifically, if the distance between air-conditioning indoor unit E and air-conditioning indoor unit D is 20m and the preset distance is 50m, the correlation coefficient r2 between air-conditioning indoor unit E and air-conditioning indoor unit D is r2=1-20 / 50=0.6. Then, the fifth parameter value of the first air-conditioning indoor unit is: 26.5+0.6×(28-26.5)=27.4°C, which is about 27.5°C.
[0078] In the embodiment of the present specification, if the first air-conditioning indoor unit simultaneously receives the adjustment parameters sent by the second air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit, the target parameters of the first air-conditioning indoor unit can be adjusted by the following steps: if the first air-conditioning indoor unit simultaneously receives the second parameter value sent by the second air-conditioning indoor unit and the sixth parameter value sent by the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit, the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the sixth parameter value is the parameter value adjusted by the user for the target parameter of the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit; if the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is less than the preset distance, based on the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and ... distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit is determined, wherein the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth The distances between the four air-conditioning indoor units and the preset distance are used to determine the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit; the first parameter change of the first air-conditioning indoor unit is determined based on the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the second air-conditioning indoor unit, the first parameter value and the second parameter value; the second parameter change of the first air-conditioning indoor unit is determined based on the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the fourth air-conditioning indoor unit, the first parameter value and the sixth parameter value; the first parameter change and the second parameter change are averaged, and the third parameter value is determined based on the average processing result and the first parameter.
[0079] For example, the second air conditioner (air conditioner C) and the fourth air conditioner (air conditioner F) receive the user's temperature adjustment command, and adjust the set temperature of air conditioner C to 26°C (the second parameter value), and adjust the set temperature of air conditioner F to 28°C (the sixth parameter value). Air conditioner C and air conditioner D save the set temperatures they receive for a preset time (e.g., 10 minutes), and keep the set temperatures unchanged within the preset time.
[0080] After receiving the command, the air conditioner C and the air conditioner F operate according to the set temperature they received within the preset time, and the air conditioner C sends the second parameter value 26°C to the surrounding air conditioners, and the air conditioner F sends the sixth parameter value 28°C to the surrounding air conditioners. If the first air conditioner (air conditioner E) receives the second parameter value and the sixth parameter value sent by the air conditioner C and the air conditioner F at the same time, the distance between the air conditioner E and the air conditioner C, and the distance between the air conditioner E and the air conditioner F are determined, and the correlation coefficients between the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner, and between the first air conditioner and the fourth air conditioner are calculated respectively according to the calculation formula of the above correlation coefficient.
[0081] If the distance between air conditioner indoor unit E and air conditioner indoor unit C is 10m, the distance between air conditioner indoor unit E and air conditioner indoor unit F is 20m, and the preset distance is 50m, then the correlation coefficient between air conditioner indoor unit E and air conditioner indoor unit C is 1-10 / 50=0.8, and the correlation coefficient between air conditioner indoor unit E and air conditioner indoor unit F is 1-20 / 50=0.6.
[0082] The change of the first parameter is: 0.8×(26-30)=3.2, and the change of the second parameter is 0.6×(28-30)=1.2. Then the calculation method of the third parameter value can be: 30+[0.8×(26-30)+0.6×(28-30)] / 2=27.8°C, which is about 27.5°C.
[0083] It should be noted that when the first air conditioner receives parameter values sent by other air conditioners, it is not limited to receiving parameter values sent by one or two air conditioners. The above description is only for example. When the first air conditioner receives parameter values sent by more than two air conditioners, the target parameter of the first air conditioner can be adjusted in the above manner according to the order of receiving the parameter values sent by multiple air conditioners or the parameter values received simultaneously. This is not limited here.
[0084] In some embodiments, if the first air-conditioning indoor unit receives the parameter value of the target parameter sent by other air-conditioning indoor units, and the distance between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the other air-conditioning indoor unit is greater than a preset distance, the correlation coefficient between the first air-conditioning indoor unit and the other air-conditioning indoor unit is 0, that is, the first air-conditioning indoor unit still operates according to the original first parameter value, and no parameter adjustment is performed.
[0085] In summary, the solution provided by the embodiments of this specification takes into account that when a user adjusts the parameters of an air conditioner indoor unit, it indicates that the user has the greatest demand for the air conditioner indoor unit, but it cannot indicate that there is no adjustment demand for other surrounding air conditioner indoor units. In order to make the environment quickly meet the needs of users, this solution realizes the coordinated adjustment between multiple indoor units through the distance between the air conditioner indoor units and the parameter values corresponding to the user's adjustment instructions. The user does not need to manually adjust each air conditioner indoor unit, which reduces user operations. Moreover, the synchronous adjustment of multiple air conditioner indoor units can make the environment meet user needs more quickly, effectively improving the user experience.
