[0002] With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the improvement of living standards, people have higher and higher requirements for living environment. Among them, indoor temperature and humidity are important indicators of living environment. For example, in winter, the indoor air is relatively dry, and when the indoor air conditioner is turned on in heating mode, the air drier degree will be aggravated; for another example, on rainy days, the indoor air is relatively humid, and when the indoor air conditioner is turned on in cooling mode, the air humidity will be aggravated. Therefore, it is necessary to set up a humidification device to adjust the indoor humidity.

[0003] Typically, in a system, humidity control equipment is used to adjust the humidity of the introduced air and then the air is input into multiple indoor spaces, thereby uniformly adjusting the humidity of the multiple indoor spaces.

[0004] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the convenience of providing a clear and complete description of the technical solutions of the present application and for the convenience of understanding by those skilled in the art. It cannot be considered that the above technical solutions are well known to those skilled in the art simply because they are described in the background technology section of the present application. Summary of the invention

[0005] The inventors have discovered that in the existing systems, the same humidity control device is used to uniformly adjust the air humidity of multiple indoor spaces. However, the specific environmental conditions of different indoor spaces may be different. In addition, the needs of users in different indoor spaces for humidity control may be different. Therefore, unified humidity control cannot meet the needs of different users, nor can it perform targeted humidity control for different indoor environments, resulting in a decrease in user comfort.

[0006] In order to solve at least one of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a humidity control system and a control method of the humidity control system, which can independently adjust the air humidity of different indoor spaces or different areas of indoor spaces, realize refined humidity control for different indoor spaces or different areas, meet the needs of different users, and thus improve the user's comfort and use experience.

[0023] The preferred embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Embodiment 1 of the present application provides a humidity control system.

[0026] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of an implementation of the humidity control system of Example 1 of the present application.

[0027] exist Figure 1 In the figure, the solid lines between modules or devices represent refrigerant pipelines; in addition, the pipelines with arrows connecting modules or devices are air pipelines; in addition, the dotted lines between modules or devices represent communication connections, which can be wired connections or wireless connections.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the humidity control system 100 includes:

[0029] An air supply module 110, which is used to introduce air;

[0030] A humidity control module 120, which is disposed at the downstream side of the air supply module 110 and is used to adjust the humidity of the air passing through the air supply module 110;

[0031] An air distribution module 130 , which is disposed at the downstream side of the humidity control module 120 and is used to distribute the air flowing into the plurality of air pipes 140 ; ​​and

[0032] A plurality of air valves 150 are respectively disposed at the plurality of air outlets 131 of the air distribution module 130 .

[0033] In some embodiments, the air supply module 110 includes at least one of a fresh air processing device, a full heat exchange device (for example, with an internal circulation function or without an internal circulation function), and a ventilation device (for example, with an internal circulation function or without an internal circulation function), and the air supply module 110 has an air supply unit, and the air supply unit is, for example, a fan.

[0034] In some embodiments, the humidity control module 120 is disposed at the downstream side of the air supply module 110 to adjust the humidity of the air passing through the air supply module 110 .

[0035] In the embodiments of the present application, the “downstream side” refers to the downstream side in the air flow path, and the “upstream side” refers to the upstream side in the air flow path.

[0036] In some embodiments, the humidity control module 120 has the function of adjusting the humidity of the air. The humidity control module 120 can humidify the air and / or dehumidify the air.

[0037] For example, the humidity control module 120 includes a humidification module and a dehumidification module, and the humidification module and the dehumidification module are switched for use as needed.

[0038] In some embodiments, the humidification module 2012 may be a humidification module based on various humidification principles.

[0039] For example, the humidification module performs humidification based on a wet film, which includes a water storage tank and a wet film. The water in the water storage tank flows into the wet film, and the wet film absorbs water to form a uniform water film. When dry air passes through the wet film, the water molecules fully absorb the heat in the air and vaporize and evaporate, thereby increasing the humidity of the air and forming humid air.

[0040] For another example, the humidification module humidifies based on waterless humidification. The moisture in the air is adsorbed by the hygroscopic material. The air absorbs moisture through the hygroscopic sector of the humidification wheel. The humidification wheel then dehumidifies through the dehumidification zone. The hot and humid air is sent into the room through the fan.

[0041] For another example, the humidification module performs humidification based on spray humidification, and the spray humidification directly inputs water vapor into the room through the action of the spray head.

[0042] For another example, the humidification module performs humidification based on steam humidification. Steam humidification is achieved by separating the steam and water in the saturated steam, and then the dry steam enters the nozzle through a regulating valve and is ejected from the nozzle hole with a silencer metal mesh, thereby achieving humidification of the air.

[0043] The air distribution module 130 is disposed at the downstream side of the humidity control module 120 , and is used to distribute the air flowing into the plurality of air pipelines 140 .

[0044] In some embodiments, the air distribution module 130 may be various modules having an air flow distribution function, for example, the air distribution module 130 is an air distribution box.

[0045] For example, the air distribution module 130 has a plurality of air outlets 131 , and the air outlets 131 are respectively connected to the air pipelines 140 .

[0046] In some embodiments, all of the air outlets 131 may be used, or some of the air outlets 131 may be used as needed.

[0047] In addition, the number of air outlets 131 can be designed according to actual needs; in addition, the ratio of air output by multiple air outlets 131 can be set according to actual needs, for example, the air flow rate of each air outlet 131 is the same, or it can be different.

[0048] In some embodiments, the humidity control system of the present application may control multiple indoor spaces, and the humidity control module 120 supplies air to the multiple indoor spaces through multiple air pipes 140. Figure 1 In the figure, two indoor spaces (space 1 and space 2) are taken as an example for description, however, the embodiment of the present application is not limited to two indoor spaces, and may also have more indoor spaces and set more air ducts for air supply.

[0049] In some embodiments, the indoor space that is the object of the humidity control system may include multiple areas, and the humidity control module 120 supplies air to the multiple areas of the indoor space through multiple air ducts 140 .

[0050] In some embodiments, the air duct 140 is an air inlet duct, and each air duct 140 corresponds to a different indoor space, or corresponds to a different area of ​​the indoor space.

[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, an air duct 141 serving as a return air duct may also be provided to centrally return air to each indoor space or each area and discharge the air to the outdoors.

[0052] In addition, if Figure 1 As shown, each indoor space is provided with an indoor unit 160. The damper 150 is provided corresponding to the indoor unit 160.

[0053] In some embodiments, the air valve 150 and the corresponding indoor unit 160 are in the same indoor space, or the air valve 150 and the corresponding indoor unit 160 process the air in the same indoor space (or the same area), that is, the air valve 150 and the corresponding indoor unit 160 have their air outlets in the same indoor space (or the same area).

[0054] In some embodiments, the air valve 150 is connected to the corresponding indoor unit 160 by at least one of a power supply connection and a communication connection, that is, the indoor unit 160 supplies power to the corresponding air valve 150, and / or the indoor unit 160 communicates with the corresponding air valve 150, for example, the indoor unit 160 sends a control instruction to the air valve 150, etc.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present application, the indoor space (or the area of ​​the indoor space), the indoor unit 160, the air duct 140 and the air valve 150 correspond to each other. By controlling the air valve 150 corresponding to the indoor space, the flow rate of the humidified air entering the indoor space (or the area) can be independently controlled, so that the air humidity of the indoor space (or the area) can be independently adjusted.

[0056] In some embodiments, part of the indoor space or the indoor space may not be provided with the air valve 150, that is, some of the indoor units 160 are not provided with the corresponding air valve 150.

[0057] In some embodiments, humidity conditioning system 100 includes an air conditioning system.

[0058] The air conditioning system may be a commercial air conditioning system or a domestic air conditioning system.

[0059] In some embodiments, the air conditioning system may include at least one group of outdoor units and at least one indoor unit connected to each group of outdoor units. That is, the air conditioning system may include one or more groups of outdoor units, each group of outdoor units includes at least one outdoor unit; for a group of outdoor units, the group of outdoor units is connected to at least one indoor unit.

[0060] For example, an air conditioning system includes an outdoor unit and an indoor unit connected to the outdoor unit.

[0061] For example, the air conditioning system includes an outdoor unit and at least two indoor units connected to the outdoor unit.

[0062] For example, the air conditioning system includes at least two outdoor units and at least two indoor units connected to the at least two outdoor units.

[0063] For example, a group of outdoor units and at least one indoor unit connected to the group of outdoor units constitute a refrigerant system, or multiple groups of outdoor units and at least one indoor unit respectively connected to the multiple groups of outdoor units constitute multiple refrigerant systems. Thus, the air-conditioning system may include one refrigerant system or multiple refrigerant systems.

[0064] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit and the indoor unit may be air-conditioning equipment of various models, types, forms, and capacities.

[0065] For example, the indoor unit may be in the form of four-sided outlet, two-sided outlet, duct unit, ground outlet or skirting outlet; the outdoor unit may be in the form of single fan top outlet, double fan top outlet, single fan front outlet or double fan front outlet.

[0066] like Figure 1 As shown, for example, one outdoor unit 170 is connected to a plurality of indoor units 160 via a refrigerant pipe 180 , and the refrigerant pipe 180 is also connected to the humidity control module 120 .

[0067] For example, the humidity control module 120 has a heat exchange module, and the refrigerant pipeline 180 is connected to the heat exchange module of the humidification module of the humidity control module 120. The heat exchange module is located on the upstream side of the humidification module, and is used to adjust the temperature of the introduced air, such as heating it, and input the heated air into the humidification module, so that the humidification efficiency of the humidification module can be improved.

[0068] like Figure 1As shown, a plurality of air valves 150 are respectively disposed at a plurality of air outlets 131 of the air distribution module 130 to independently control the humidified air flow output from each air outlet 131 .

[0069] In some embodiments, the air valve may include a baffle, and the rotation angle of the baffle is controlled by a motor to allow the air flow in the air duct to pass through, partially pass through, or prevent the air flow from passing through.

[0070] In some embodiments, the actions of the air valve may include opening, closing, and adjusting the opening angle.

[0071] For example, when the air valve is closed, the air flow entering the indoor space corresponding to the air valve is blocked; when the air valve is opened, the air flow is allowed to enter the indoor space smoothly; when the opening angle of the air valve is adjusted, the flow rate of the air flow entering the indoor space can be adjusted.

[0072] Since the air flow controlled by the air valve has been humidified by the humidity control module 120, the blocking, inflow and flow rate of the air flow entering the indoor space are controlled by the action of the air valve, so that the air humidity of the indoor space can be independently adjusted.

[0073] like Figure 1 As shown, the air valve 150 is arranged on the outer side of the air outlet 131 of the air distribution module 130, that is, on the downstream side. However, the air valve can also be arranged on the inner side of the air outlet 131 of the air distribution module 130, that is, on the upstream side. The embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0074] like Figure 1 As shown, the humidity control system 100 further includes:

[0075] The centralized control module 190 generates an air valve control instruction according to at least one of the status data of the air supply module 110, the status data of the humidity control module 120, the status data of the indoor unit 160, the indoor humidity data and the indoor temperature data.

[0076] In some embodiments, the centralized control module 190 includes a controller, for example, the controller may be a centralized controller, a wired controller, a remote controller, an intelligent controller, etc. A user may issue instructions by operating the controller.

[0077] In some embodiments, the centralized control module 190 may further include a gateway device that collects data from various modules and devices and generates control instructions for the air valve 150 based on the data, i.e., air valve control instructions. The air valve 150 opens, closes, and adjusts the opening angle of the air valve according to the air valve control instructions for the air valve.

[0078] For example, the centralized control module 190 sends the air valve control instruction to the indoor unit 160 corresponding to the air valve 150. The indoor unit 160 sends the received air valve control instruction to the air valve 150 corresponding to the indoor unit 160. The air valve 150 opens, closes, and adjusts the opening angle according to the air valve control instruction.

[0079] The specific control process of the air valve 150 will be described in detail in the following embodiments.

[0080] In some embodiments, the air valve control instruction includes identification information of the air valve and may also include identification information of the indoor unit corresponding to the air valve.

[0081] In some embodiments, the indoor humidity data and the indoor temperature data may be acquired through the detection module 200 , and the detection module 200 may include at least one of a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor.

[0082] For example, the detection module 200 includes at least one of a first sensor set in the indoor space, a second sensor set in the indoor unit remote control, and a third sensor set at the indoor return air outlet. The first sensor is a humidity sensor, the second sensor is a temperature sensor, and the third sensor includes a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor.

[0083] In some embodiments, the first sensor includes multiple humidity sensors in different indoor spaces or in different areas of the same indoor space. In this way, the accuracy of humidity data can be improved, the accuracy of humidity adjustment can be further improved, and the comfort of users can be improved.

[0084] In some embodiments, the detection module 200 further includes a fourth sensor disposed at the output side of the humidity control module 120 , and the fourth sensor is a humidity sensor.

[0085] In some embodiments, the indoor humidity is determined using a detection value of at least one of the first sensor, the second sensor, the third sensor, and the fourth sensor.

[0086] In some embodiments, when determining the indoor humidity, the priority order of the humidity detection values ​​used is from high to low: the first humidity detection value obtained by the first sensor, the second humidity detection value obtained by the second sensor and the third sensor, and the third humidity detection value obtained by the fourth sensor. In this way, the accuracy of humidity data can be improved, the accuracy of humidity adjustment can be further improved, and the comfort of users can be improved.

[0087] For example, the first humidity detection value is the indoor humidity directly measured by the first sensor; the second humidity detection value is calculated based on the humidity detection value and temperature detection value measured by the third sensor and the humidity detection value measured by the second sensor 2082; the third humidity detection value is the indoor humidity directly measured by the fourth sensor. In this way, the accuracy of humidity data can be further improved, the accuracy of humidity adjustment can be further improved, and the comfort of users can be further improved.

[0088] In some embodiments, when the first sensor includes multiple sensors, the indoor humidity is determined by using the maximum value of the detection values ​​of the multiple sensors, or the minimum value of the detection values ​​of the multiple sensors, or the average value of the detection values ​​of the multiple sensors. In this way, humidity data can be obtained quickly to improve user comfort.

[0089] In some embodiments, the air supply module 110 controls the air volume of the air supply module 110 according to the opening and closing information of the air valve 150. For example, the fan in the air supply module 110 is controlled.

[0090] For example, when all air valves 150 are closed, the air supply module 110 stops the operation of the fan; for another example, when some air valves 150 are closed, the air supply module 110 lowers the air volume of the fan; for another example, when all air valves 150 are opened, the air supply module 110 increases the air volume of the fan.

[0091] In some embodiments, the air supply module 110 obtains the opening and closing information of the air valve 150 from the humidity control module 120 , or may also obtain the opening and closing information of the air valve 150 from the centralized control module 190 .

[0092] In some embodiments, the centralized control module 190 is connected to the indoor unit 160 via a wired connection; in addition, each indoor unit 160, the indoor unit 160 and the outdoor unit 170, the humidity control module 120 and the indoor unit 160, and the air supply module 110 and the humidity control module 120 can all be connected via a wired connection.

[0093] According to the above embodiment, in the humidity control system, by setting an air distribution module on the downstream side of the humidity control module and respectively setting air valves at multiple air outlets of the air distribution module, the valve can be used to control the humidified air input into different indoor spaces or different areas of the indoor space respectively, so that the air humidity of different indoor spaces or different areas of the indoor space can be adjusted independently, thereby realizing refined humidity adjustment for different indoor spaces or different areas, meeting the needs of different users, and improving the user's comfort and usage experience.

[0094] Example 2

[0095] Embodiment 2 of the present application provides a humidity control system, which is similar to the humidity control system described in Embodiment 1. The difference from the humidity control system described in Embodiment 1 is that no air distribution module is provided in the humidity control system. In addition, the setting position of the air valve is different from that in Embodiment 1.

[0096] Figure 2 Schematic diagram of an implementation of the humidity control system of Example 2 of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the structure of the humidity control system 100' is mostly the same as that of the humidity control system 100 in Example 1. The difference from the humidity control system 100 is that the humidity control system 100' is not provided with an air distribution module. In addition, a plurality of air valves 150 are provided in the air pipeline 140. For example, Figure 2 As shown, the humidity control module 120 has a plurality of air outlets 121 , and a plurality of air valves 150 are respectively disposed at the plurality of air outlets 121 to independently control the humidified air flow output from each air outlet 121 .

[0097] like Figure 2 As shown, the humidity control module 120 has a plurality of air outlets 121, and the air outlets 121 are respectively connected to the air pipeline 140. In some embodiments, all the air outlets 121 can be used, or part of the air outlets 121 can be used as needed. In addition, the number of air outlets 121 can be designed according to actual needs.

[0098] like Figure 2 As shown, the air valve 150 is arranged on the outer side of the air outlet 121 of the humidity control module 120, that is, on the downstream side. However, the air valve can also be arranged on the inner side of the air outlet 121 of the humidity control module 120, that is, on the upstream side. The embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0099] Figure 3 Schematic diagram of another embodiment of the humidity control system of Example 2 of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the structure of the humidity control system 100" is mostly similar to Figure 2 The structure of the humidity control system 100' is the same as that of the humidity control system 100', but the difference from the humidity control system 100' is that the multiple air valves 150 in the humidity control system 100" are respectively arranged at the air outlets of the multiple air pipelines 140.

[0100] in addition, Figure 2 and Figure 3 For the specific contents of the modules or devices that are the same as those in Example 1, reference can be made to the description in Example 1 and will not be repeated here.

[0101] In the embodiment of the present application, the indoor space (or the area of ​​the indoor space), the indoor unit 160, the air duct 140 and the air valve 150 correspond to each other. By controlling the air valve 150 corresponding to the indoor space, the flow rate of the humidified air entering the indoor space (or the area) can be independently controlled, so that the air humidity of the indoor space (or the area) can be independently adjusted.

[0102] Therefore, by respectively setting air valves inside or at the air outlets of multiple air pipelines, similar to Example 1, the valves can be used to control the air that has been humidified and input into different indoor spaces or different areas of indoor spaces, so that the air humidity of different indoor spaces or different areas of indoor spaces can be adjusted independently, and refined humidity adjustment for different indoor spaces or different areas can be achieved to meet the needs of different users, thereby improving the user's comfort and use experience. In addition, compared with Example 1, since there is no need to set up an air distribution module, the system structure can be further simplified.

[0103] Example 3

[0104] Embodiment 3 of the present application provides a control method for a humidity control system, wherein the humidity control system is the humidity control system described in Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2.

[0105] The specific structure of the humidity control system can be referred to the description in Example 1 or Example 2, and will not be repeated here.

[0106] Figure 4 is a block diagram of a control method for a humidity control system according to Embodiment 3 of the present application. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0107] Step 401: Control the air valve according to at least one of the status data of the air supply module, the status data of the humidity control module, the status data of the indoor unit, the indoor humidity data, and the indoor temperature data in the humidity control system.

[0108] In step 401, each of the plurality of air valves may be controlled separately.

[0109] In some embodiments, the status data of the air supply module includes at least one of the opening and closing information, air volume information, operation mode information and protection control information of the air supply module.

[0110] In some embodiments, the status data of the humidity control module includes at least one of the opening and closing information, the air volume information, the operation mode information and the protection control information of the humidity control module.

[0111] In some embodiments, the status data of the indoor unit includes information on whether the operation of the indoor unit is turned on and off.

[0112] In some embodiments, indoor humidity data and indoor temperature data can be obtained by Figures 1 to 3 The detection module 200 may include at least one of a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor.

[0113] For example, the detection module 200 includes at least one of a first sensor set in the indoor space, a second sensor set in the indoor unit remote control, and a third sensor set at the indoor return air outlet. The first sensor is a humidity sensor, the second sensor is a temperature sensor, and the third sensor includes a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor.

[0114] In some embodiments, the first sensor includes multiple humidity sensors in different indoor spaces or in different areas of the same indoor space. In this way, the accuracy of humidity data can be improved, the accuracy of humidity adjustment can be further improved, and the comfort of users can be improved.

[0115] In some embodiments, the detection module 200 further includes a fourth sensor disposed at the output side of the humidity control module 120 , and the fourth sensor is a humidity sensor.

[0116] In some embodiments, the indoor humidity is determined using a detection value of at least one of the first sensor, the second sensor, the third sensor, and the fourth sensor.

[0117] In some embodiments, when determining the indoor humidity, the priority order of the humidity detection values ​​used is from high to low: the first humidity detection value obtained by the first sensor, the second humidity detection value obtained by the second sensor and the third sensor, and the third humidity detection value obtained by the fourth sensor. In this way, the accuracy of humidity data can be improved, the accuracy of humidity adjustment can be further improved, and the comfort of users can be improved.

[0118] For example, the first humidity detection value is the indoor humidity directly measured by the first sensor; the second humidity detection value is calculated based on the humidity detection value and temperature detection value measured by the third sensor and the humidity detection value measured by the second sensor 2082; the third humidity detection value is the indoor humidity directly measured by the fourth sensor. In this way, the accuracy of humidity data can be further improved, the accuracy of humidity adjustment can be further improved, and the comfort of users can be further improved.

[0119] In some embodiments, when the first sensor includes multiple sensors, the indoor humidity is determined by using the maximum value of the detection values ​​of the multiple sensors, or the minimum value of the detection values ​​of the multiple sensors, or the average value of the detection values ​​of the multiple sensors. In this way, humidity data can be obtained quickly to improve user comfort.

[0120] Figure 5 FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a specific method for implementing step 401 of Example 3 of the present application. Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0121] Step 501: Determine whether the air valve opening condition is met; if the judgment is "yes", go to step 502, if the judgment is "no", return;

[0122] Step 502: Open the air valve; in addition, when the air valve is opened, it can be further determined whether the air valve closing condition is met, that is, enter step 503.

[0123] Step 503: Determine whether the air valve closing condition is met; if the determination is "yes", proceed to step 504; if the determination is "no", return;

[0124] Step 504: close the air valve. In addition, when the air valve is closed, it can be further determined whether the air valve opening condition is met, that is, return to step 501.

[0125] in addition, Figure 5 The method shown can be executed separately for each air valve.

[0126] In some embodiments, the air valve opening condition includes: the operation of the humidification control module stops; or, the operation of the indoor unit corresponding to the air valve starts; or, the status of the heat exchange module of the humidification control module and the indoor unit meets the first preset condition and the indoor temperature meets the second preset condition.

[0127] For example, the first preset condition includes: the operation of the heat exchange module is turned on, or the operation of all indoor units in the humidity conditioning system is stopped, or the operation of the heat exchange module is stopped and the operation of all indoor units in the humidity conditioning system is turned on;

[0128] For example, the second preset condition includes: the detection temperature of the sensor on the indoor unit corresponding to the air valve is greater than the first threshold, the detection temperature of the sensor on the remote control of the indoor unit is greater than the first threshold, and the detection temperature of the sensor set indoors is greater than the first threshold.

[0129] The specific value of the first threshold can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the first threshold is 20°C.

[0130] In some embodiments, the air valve closing condition includes: the operation of the humidification module is turned on; and the operation of the indoor unit corresponding to the air valve is stopped; and the status of the heat exchange module and the indoor unit of the humidification module meets the third preset condition and the indoor temperature meets the fourth preset condition.

[0131] For example, the third preset condition includes: the operation of the heat exchange module is turned on, or the operation of all indoor units in the humidity conditioning system is stopped, or the operation of the heat exchange module is stopped and the operation of any indoor unit in the humidity conditioning system is turned on;

[0132] For example, the fourth preset condition includes: the detection temperature of the sensor on the indoor unit corresponding to the air valve is less than or equal to the second threshold, or the detection temperature of the sensor on the remote control of the indoor unit is less than or equal to the second threshold and the detection temperature of the sensor set indoors is less than or equal to the second threshold.

[0133] The specific value of the second threshold can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the second threshold is 16°C.

[0134] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the method also includes:

[0135] Step 402: Control the air volume of the air supply module according to the opening and closing information of the air valve.

[0136] In this way, the air supply module can generate an appropriate amount of air, further improving the user's comfort and saving electric energy.

[0137] For example, when all air valves in the humidity control system are closed, the operation of the air supply module is stopped. For example, the operation of the fan in the air supply module is stopped.

[0138] For another example, when some of the air valves 150 are closed, the air supply module 110 lowers the air volume of the fan; for another example, when all of the air valves 150 are opened, the air supply module 110 increases the air volume of the fan.

[0139] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the method also includes:

[0140] Step 403: Based on the humidity control module stop condition and the humidity control module start condition, the operation of the humidity control module is controlled. In this way, the operation of the humidity control module can be started or stopped at an appropriate time to prevent condensation, further improve user comfort, and save electricity.

[0141] In addition, step 402 and step 403 are optional steps, which can be executed simultaneously or successively. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the execution order of step 402 and step 403.

[0145] Step 602: Stop the operation of the humidity control module;

[0146] Step 603: Open all air valves; this can meet the user's demand for fresh air;

[0147] In addition, when the operation of the humidity control module is stopped and all air valves are opened, it can be further determined whether the humidity control module opening condition is met, that is, entering step 604 .

[0148] Step 604: Determine whether the humidity control module start-up condition is met; if the judgment is "yes", go to step 605; if the judgment is "no", return;

[0149] Step 605: Start the operation of the humidity control module. In addition, when the operation of the humidity control module is started, it can be further determined whether the humidity control module stop condition is met, that is, return to step 601.

[0150] In some embodiments, the stopping condition of the humidity control module includes: all air valves in the humidity control system are required to be closed or have been closed; or, any air valve in the humidity control system is in an abnormal state.

[0152] For example, the abnormal status of the air valve includes disconnection of communication with the air valve, inability of the air valve to perform related actions, etc.

[0153] According to the above embodiment, in the humidity control system, the air valve is controlled according to at least one of the status data of the air supply module, the status data of the humidity control module, the status data of the indoor unit, the indoor humidity data, and the indoor temperature data, so that data from different sources and types can be flexibly applied to accurately control each air valve, which can further improve the accuracy of humidity control in different indoor spaces or different areas and improve user comfort.
