[0024] Typical implementations that embody the features and advantages of the present application will be described in detail in the following description. It should be understood that the present application can have various changes in different implementations without departing from the scope of the present application, and the descriptions and illustrations therein are essentially used for illustrative purposes rather than for limiting the present application.

[0025] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "vertical", "up", "down", "horizontal", etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the referred system or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0026] In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0027] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0028] According to a first aspect of an embodiment of the present application, a heating system is provided.

[0029] In an optional implementation, the schematic diagram of the heating system provided in the present application is as follows: Figure 1 shown.

[0030] In some embodiments, the heating system of the present application includes an electric heating device, a gas heating device, an outlet three-way valve, a return three-way valve, and a heat consumption system.

[0031] Among them, the electric heating equipment includes a first outlet pipe and a first return pipe; the gas heating equipment includes a second outlet pipe and a second return pipe; the outlet pipe three-way valve is used to connect the first outlet pipe and the second outlet pipe in parallel to output heat exchange medium to the heat consumption system; the return pipe three-way valve is used to connect the first return pipe and the second return pipe in parallel to recover heat exchange medium from the heat consumption system.

[0032] It should be noted that the heat exchange medium referred to in this application is a medium that can store heat after flowing through an electric heating device or a gas heating device, so that the medium uses the heat stored in itself to provide heating to the space that needs heating. Figure 1As shown, water is used as the heat exchange medium.

[0033] It should also be noted that electric heating equipment uses electric energy to provide heat to the heat exchange medium flowing through it (such as floor heating). Gas heating equipment uses gas to provide heat to the heat exchange medium flowing through it (such as wall-mounted boilers). It is understandable that the price of gas energy is higher than that of electric energy. Therefore, the economic loss of heating the heating system using only gas energy is compared with the economic loss of heating the heating system using only electric energy. However, the heating efficiency of gas energy is much higher than that of electric energy.

[0034] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the heating principle of the heating system of the present application, the following will be combined with Figure 1 Give an example.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, in the gas heating equipment, after the cold water inlet pipe connected to the external water source provides water medium to the gas heating equipment, the water medium flows through the gas heating equipment and is heated, that is, the water medium will store heat, and the heated water medium will be transported to the heat consumption system through the second outlet and the outlet three-way valve, so that heating can be provided to each room, and the water medium after flowing through the heat consumption system will be recovered by the return pipe three-way valve, and then transported back to the gas heating equipment, so that it will be reheated and then transported to the heat consumption system; similarly, in the electric heating equipment, after the cold water inlet pipe connected to the external water source provides water medium to the electric heating equipment, the water medium flows through the electric heating equipment and is heated, that is, the water medium will store heat, and the heated water medium will be transported to the heat consumption system through the first outlet and the outlet three-way valve, so that heating can be provided to each room, and the water medium after flowing through the heat consumption system will be recovered by the return pipe three-way valve, and then transported back to the electric heating equipment, so that it will be reheated and then transported to the heat consumption system.

[0036] In some embodiments, the outlet three-way valve and the return three-way valve provided in the present application are both valves capable of adjusting the opening of the valve body, and may be linked control valves, that is, assuming that the opening of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the first outlet pipe is adjusted to be the target opening, the opening of the corresponding return three-way valve corresponding to the first return pipe is also adjusted to the target opening.

[0037] In some embodiments, the outlet three-way valve and the return three-way valve provided in the present application have only the functions of fully opening and fully closing the valve body, and may also be linkage control valves. That is, assuming that the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the first outlet pipe is adjusted to be fully open, the valve body of the corresponding return three-way valve corresponding to the first return pipe is also adjusted to be fully open.

[0038] In some embodiments, the heat consumption system proposed in the present application includes a two-way manifold and at least one heat consumption branch pipe, wherein the two-way manifold is used to connect the outlet three-way valve and each heat consumption branch pipe outlet, and connect the return three-way valve and each heat consumption branch pipe loop.

[0039] It should be noted that the medium flowing through each heat consumption branch pipe can be used by the user in daily life. For example, Figure 1 As shown, water is used as the medium, and the water medium flowing through the heat consumption branch pipe can be used as domestic water for users to wash dishes, wash hands, take a bath, etc.

[0040] Specifically, the two-unit water distributor and water collector in the heat consumption system includes a water distributor, a water collector, and at least one first control valve arranged on the water distributor, and at least one second control valve arranged on the water collector.

[0041] Among them, the inlet of the water distributor is connected to the outlet three-way valve; at least one outlet is arranged on the water distributor, each outlet is connected to a heat consumption branch outlet, and the first control valve is arranged at the outlet of the water distributor to control the flow rate of the medium flowing into the heat consumption branch outlet.

[0042] Wherein, the outlet of the water collector is connected to the return pipe three-way valve; at least one inlet is arranged on the water collector, each inlet is connected to a heat consumption branch pipe loop, and the second control valve is arranged at the inlet of the water collector to control the flow rate of the medium flowing out of the heat consumption branch pipe loop.

[0043] It can be understood that, assuming that there are M heat consumption branches in the heat consumption system, there will be M heat consumption branch pipe outlets and M heat consumption branch pipe loops, and there will be M first control valves corresponding one-to-one to the M heat consumption branch pipe outlets; and there will be M second control valves corresponding one-to-one to the M heat consumption branch pipe loops.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first control valve and the second control valve may only have the function of fully opening and fully closing the valve body, or may have the function of adjustable opening, which is not limited in this application. The first control valve and the second control valve may also be linkage control valves, that is, assuming that the opening of the first control valve corresponding to the outlet of the heat consumption branch pipe A is adjusted to the first opening, the opening of the second control valve corresponding to the corresponding heat consumption branch pipe loop A will also be passively adjusted to the first opening.

[0045] Continue to see Figure 1In some embodiments of the present application, the heating system also includes a first temperature detection device for measuring the indoor ambient temperature information of each heat consumption branch pipe, and sending the indoor ambient temperature information to the controller; a second temperature detection device for measuring the outdoor ambient temperature information, and sending the outdoor ambient temperature information to the controller; a medium flow detection device for measuring the medium flow information in the outlet three-way valve, and sending the medium flow information to the controller.

[0046] In some embodiments, a wire controller may be installed in the indoor environment where each heat consumption branch pipe is located, so that the temperature information of the indoor environment is measured by the temperature sensor of the wire controller, and the measured indoor environment temperature information is sent to the controller. Of course, the first temperature detector may also be other devices with temperature detection function, which is not limited in this application.

[0047] In some implementations, a temperature sensor may be installed outdoors as the second temperature detection device, so as to detect the outdoor ambient temperature and send the detected outdoor ambient temperature information to the controller.

[0048] In some embodiments, the medium flow detection device may be a water flow sensor, which may be disposed at the outlet three-way valve to monitor the medium flow information in the outlet three-way valve; or may be disposed on a pipeline connecting the outlet three-way valve and the two-way manifold to monitor the medium flow information in the outlet three-way valve. Specifically, the present application does not limit the type and installation location of the medium flow detection device.

[0049] Continue to see Figure 1 In the present application, the heating system further includes a controller for controlling the operating status of the electric heating equipment and the gas heating equipment.

[0050] It should be noted that the controller can be connected to the Internet to obtain weather forecast information, and can also issue control instructions to electric heating equipment, gas heating equipment, outlet three-way valve, return three-way valve, first control valve, second control valve, etc. For example, a start-up instruction or a shutdown instruction can be issued to the gas heating equipment to control the operating state of the gas heating equipment; a start-up instruction or a shutdown instruction can be issued to the electric heating equipment to control the operating state of the electric heating equipment; a closing instruction corresponding to the valve body of the second outlet can be issued to the outlet three-way valve to control the shutdown of the gas heating equipment; an opening instruction corresponding to the valve body of the first outlet can be issued to the outlet three-way valve to control the startup of the electric heating equipment.

[0051] In some embodiments, the execution logic of the controller in the heating system can be executed with reference to the heating system control method provided in the second aspect of the embodiment of the present application as follows, and the present application will not elaborate on it here.

[0052] According to a second aspect of an embodiment of the present application, a heating system control method is provided.

[0053] See also Figure 2 , shows a flow chart of a heating system control method according to an embodiment of the present application, which specifically includes steps S110 to S120:

[0054] S110, obtaining the indoor environment temperature where each heat consumption branch pipe is located.

[0055] In some implementations, the indoor ambient temperature where each heat consumption branch pipe is located may be acquired based on the first temperature detection device in the first aspect described above.

[0056] For example, Figure 1 As shown, there are corresponding heat consumption branches in rooms A, B, C, D, E, and F respectively, so the indoor environment temperature where each heat consumption branch is located can be obtained by detecting the temperature in rooms A, B, C, D, E, and F.

[0057] Continue to see Figure 2 , S120, if the indoor ambient temperature is lower than the lower limit of the preset room temperature range, open the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the first outlet pipe, and open the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the second outlet pipe to control the electric heating equipment and the gas heating equipment to be in the on state.

[0058] In step S120, in some embodiments, the preset room temperature interval may be determined by the user who uses the heating system, or may be determined based on the set temperature input by the user and the preset compensation temperature value. For example, the user determines [25°C-27°C] as the preset room temperature interval; or the user determines the set temperature to be 26°C, and the preset compensation value in the controller fluctuates by 1°C, so that the preset room temperature interval can be determined to be [25°C-27°C].

[0059] In some embodiments, the preset room temperature range can also be obtained through the following steps S10 to S11:

[0060] S10, obtaining the current or future outdoor ambient temperature.

[0061] Specifically, the current outdoor ambient temperature can be obtained based on the data sent by the second temperature detection device designed in the first aspect above; the future outdoor ambient temperature, that is, the relevant temperature of the weather forecast, can be obtained after the controller is connected to the Internet.

[0062] S11, determining the preset room temperature interval according to the outdoor ambient temperature, wherein the interval length of the preset room temperature interval is positively correlated with the outdoor ambient temperature.

[0063] In some implementations, step S11 may be performed according to the following three situations.

[0064] In the first case, if the outdoor ambient temperature is greater than a first temperature threshold, the preset room temperature interval is set as the first temperature interval.

[0065] In the second case, if the outdoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the first temperature threshold and greater than the second temperature threshold, the preset room temperature interval is set as the second temperature interval, and the interval length of the second temperature interval is less than the interval length of the first temperature interval.

[0066] In a third case, if the outdoor ambient temperature is less than or equal to the second temperature threshold, the preset room temperature interval is set as a third temperature interval, and the interval length of the third temperature interval is less than the interval length of the second temperature interval.

[0067] It can be understood that the first temperature threshold is greater than the second temperature threshold, and the second temperature threshold is greater than the third temperature threshold.

[0068] The preset room temperature intervals determined in the above three situations are obtained with reference to the outdoor ambient temperature. For example, if the first temperature threshold is set to 10°C, the second temperature threshold is set to 0°C, and the third temperature threshold is set to -5°C, if the current outdoor ambient temperature is 12°C, the preset room temperature interval can be set to [22°C-28°C]; if the current outdoor ambient temperature is 8°C, the preset room temperature interval can be set to [23°C-27°C]; if the current outdoor ambient temperature is -8°C, the preset room temperature interval can be set to [25°C-27°C].

[0069] In step S120, generally speaking, the scenario corresponding to the indoor ambient temperature being lower than the lower limit of the preset room temperature range is that in the initial operation of the heating system after receiving the power-on command issued by the user, if only electric heating equipment is used to supply heat to the heating system, the heating system will be slow to heat up in the initial operation, that is, it will take a long waiting time to reach the ideal temperature required by the user. Therefore, in this application, gas heating equipment is added, so that in the initial operation of the heating system, the electric heating equipment and the gas heating equipment are controlled to be in the on state at the same time to supply heat to the heating system, so that the heating system can achieve rapid heating, reducing the waiting time for the user to reach the ideal temperature after issuing a power-on command to the heating system, thereby improving the user's experience.

[0070] In the controller of the heating system of the present application, the following step S20 may also be executed.

[0071] S20, if the indoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the lower limit of the preset room temperature range, open the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the first outlet pipe, and close the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the second outlet pipe, so as to control the electric heating equipment to be in the on state and control the gas heating equipment to be in the off state.

[0072] It can be understood that after the heating system receives the start-up instruction issued by the user, the controller controls the electric heating equipment and the gas heating equipment to be in the start-up state at the same time, so that heat can be supplied to the heating system at the same time, so that the indoor ambient temperature of each room (i.e., the indoor space where each heat consumption branch pipe is located) can quickly reach the lower limit of the preset room temperature range. When the indoor ambient temperature of each room reaches the lower limit of the preset room temperature range, it means that the indoor ambient temperature has approached the user's ideal temperature, then the heating system can be controlled to switch from the rapid heating mode to the heat preservation heating mode.

[0073] The insulation heating mode is a heating mode corresponding to when the indoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the lower limit of the preset room temperature range. Because gas heating equipment consumes more energy than electric heating equipment, in the insulation heating mode, the gas heating equipment is controlled to be in a shutdown state and the electric heating equipment is controlled to be in a startup state, so that only the electric heating equipment is used to heat the heating system in the entire insulation heating mode, which can achieve energy saving effects.

[0074] In the controller of the heating system of the present application, in the heat preservation and heating mode, the executable implementation methods include at least the following two.

[0075] In a first implementation mode, the following step S100A is performed.

[0076] S100A, if it is detected that the indoor ambient temperature of the target heat consumption branch pipe is higher than the upper limit value of the preset room temperature range, control the valve body of the first control valve corresponding to the target heat consumption branch pipe to close, and the target heat consumption branch pipe belongs to each of the heat consumption branches.

[0077] For example, Figure 1 As shown, assuming that the preset room temperature range is [25℃-27℃], if the indoor ambient temperature in room A is detected to reach 27.2℃, the valve body of the first control valve arranged on the manifold of the two-unit manifold manifold corresponding to the heat consumption branch pipe in room A can be controlled to close. Similarly, when the valve body of the first control valve is closed, the valve body of the second control valve arranged on the manifold of the two-unit manifold manifold corresponding to the heat consumption branch pipe in room A will also be closed synchronously, so that the heat exchange medium in the heat consumption branch pipe in room A no longer flows, and the heat stored in the heat exchange medium in the heat consumption branch pipe itself continues to keep room A warm.

[0078] After executing the above S100A, the following step S200A may also be executed.

[0079] S200A: If it is detected that the indoor ambient temperature of the target heat consumption branch pipe drops to the lower limit of the preset room temperature range, control the valve body of the first control valve corresponding to the target heat consumption branch pipe to open.

[0080] It can be understood that the above steps S100A and S200A are both for enabling the heating system to heat each room more energy-efficiently, thereby improving the user experience.

[0081] In a second implementation mode, the following steps S100B to S300B are performed:

[0082] S100B, if it is detected that the indoor ambient temperature of the target heat consumption branch pipe is higher than the upper limit of the preset room temperature range, a set temperature corresponding to the indoor space where the target heat consumption branch pipe is located is obtained, and the target heat consumption branch pipe belongs to each of the heat consumption branches.

[0083] S200B: determining a target valve body opening corresponding to the set temperature based on a correspondence relationship between the temperature and the valve body opening of the first control valve.

[0084] S300B: adjusting the valve body opening of the first control valve corresponding to the target heat consumption branch pipe based on the target valve body opening.

[0085] The set temperature may be set in advance by the user, or may be determined based on the current or future outdoor ambient temperature.

[0086] like Figure 1 As shown, assuming that the preset room temperature range is [25°C-27°C], if the indoor ambient temperature in room A is detected to have reached 27.2°C, based on the above step S100B, it is determined that the set temperature corresponding to room A is 26°C, and based on the above step S200B, it is determined that the target valve body opening corresponding to 26°C is 50, then the opening of the first control valve corresponding to the heat consumption branch pipe in room A can be adjusted to 50.

[0087] Both of the above two implementations can stabilize the indoor ambient temperature of each room within a preset room temperature range, thereby improving the user experience. Specifically, a specific implementation method can be selected according to actual conditions, and this application does not limit it here.

[0088] It should be noted that the heating system designed in this application can be integrated with domestic water, that is, users can use the water medium flowing through the heat consumption system to use hot water for washing dishes, washing hands, taking a bath, etc. However, if users consume the water medium flowing through the heat consumption system, it will inevitably affect the total amount of water medium in the heat consumption system, thereby reducing the heating effect. Based on this, this application proposes the following solution strategy. Specifically, it includes the following steps S30 to S32:

[0089] S30, obtaining the medium flow rate in the outlet three-way valve.

[0090] Specifically, the medium flow rate in the outlet three-way valve can be obtained by using the medium flow rate detection device designed in the first aspect.

[0091] S31, if the medium flow rate is higher than the preset flow rate threshold, open the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the first outlet pipe, and open the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the second outlet pipe, so as to control the electric heating equipment and the gas heating equipment to be in the on state.

[0092] S32, if the medium flow rate is lower than the preset flow rate threshold, the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the first outlet pipe is opened, and the valve body of the outlet three-way valve corresponding to the second outlet pipe is closed to control the electric heating equipment to be in the on state and control the gas heating equipment to be in the off state.

[0093] In some implementations, the preset flow threshold may be determined according to the following steps, specifically including S40 to S41:

[0094] S40, obtaining the outdoor ambient temperature.

[0095] Specifically, the outdoor ambient temperature may be acquired by a second temperature detection device designed according to the first aspect.

[0096] S41, determining the preset flow rate threshold according to the outdoor ambient temperature, wherein the preset flow rate threshold is positively correlated with the outdoor ambient temperature.

[0097] It can be understood that, assuming that the user consumes the water medium in the heat consumption system, the medium flow in the outlet three-way valve will inevitably increase, but the amount of increase in the medium flow is related to the amount of hot water consumed by the user. If the user only consumes a small amount of water medium in the heat consumption system (such as short hand washing, face washing, etc.), then it will only cause a small change in the water medium flow in the outlet three-way valve; if the user consumes a large amount of water medium in the heat consumption system (such as multiple people taking a bath, washing dishes for a long time, etc.), it will cause a large change in the water medium flow in the outlet three-way valve. In other words, the amount of water medium consumed by the user is positively correlated with the change in the medium flow in the outlet three-way valve.

[0098] If the outdoor ambient temperature is lower, it means that more heat is required for indoor heating. Therefore, the lower the outdoor ambient temperature is, the smaller the preset flow threshold should be set. In this way, when the outdoor ambient temperature is very low, the user can trigger the gas heating equipment to turn on when a small amount of water medium in the heat consumption system is consumed, thereby quickly replenishing the heat exchange medium for the indoor heating system, that is, quickly replenishing the medium for the heat consumption system, so that the heating system can obtain a better heating effect.

[0099] In step S32, it is explained that if the gas heating equipment is turned on in step S31, it can quickly replenish the heat exchange medium for the heating system, so that the medium flow in the outlet three-way valve gradually decreases. When it drops to the preset flow threshold, the gas heating equipment is controlled to be in a shutdown state, which can achieve the energy-saving effect of the heating system.

[0100] In the technical solutions provided in some embodiments of the present application, an electric heating device including a first outlet pipe and a first return pipe is provided in the heating system; a gas heating device including a second outlet pipe and a second return pipe is provided; a return pipe three-way valve is provided for connecting the first return pipe and the second return pipe in parallel to recover the heat exchange medium from the heat consumption system; and a controller is provided for controlling the operating state of the electric heating device and the gas heating device. If the controller determines that the indoor ambient temperature is lower than the lower limit of the preset room temperature range, the valve body of the outlet pipe three-way valve corresponding to the first outlet pipe is opened, and the valve body of the outlet pipe three-way valve corresponding to the second outlet pipe is opened to control the electric heating device and the gas heating device to be in the on state. It can be seen that the heating system of the present application has an energy-saving technical effect in the process of heating the indoor room due to the provision of electric heating equipment; since a gas heating setting is provided, and the gas heating equipment is controlled to start when the indoor ambient temperature is lower than the lower limit of the preset room temperature range, the gas heating equipment can be used for heating to heat the indoor room. Based on the advantage of rapid heating of the gas heating equipment, the heating system of the present application has both an energy-saving effect and a rapid heating technical effect.
