[0033] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0034] Figure 1 is one of flowcharts of the air conditioner operation control method provided by the present application.

[0035] In order to further introduce the air conditioner operation control method provided by the present application, the following will be described with reference to the drawings in the present application. Figure 1

[0036] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, it can be known that the air conditioner operation control method can include steps 110 to 130, and the following will introduce each step respectively. Figure 1

[0037] In step 110, the target set temperature and the target operation gear during the operation of the air conditioner are determined.

[0038] In step 120, the indoor temperature is acquired in real time.

[0039] In step 130, the actual operation power of the air conditioner is determined in real time based on the target set temperature, the indoor temperature and the target operation gear, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate according to the actual operation power.

[0040] During the starting process of the refrigeration or heating operation of the air conditioner, a target set temperature and a target operation gear need to be set in advance, so that the air conditioner can operate according to the target set temperature and the target operation gear.

[0041] ​​However, in the running process of the air conditioner, the running power of the air conditioner or the rotating speed of the motor is determined under the target setting temperature and / or the target running gear, and when the indoor temperature is higher, lower or close to the target setting temperature, the running power of the air conditioner or the rotating speed of the motor is still running according to the set running power, and cannot be self-adaptively adjusted, which will lead to frequent start and stop of the motor, increase the power consumption of the air conditioner and affect the service life of the air conditioner.

[0042] In an embodiment, the indoor temperature can be acquired in real time, and the actual running power of the air conditioner can be adjusted in real time based on the target setting temperature, the indoor temperature and the target running gear. It can be understood that the actual running power is not fixed, and the actual running power can be dynamically adjusted according to the relationship among the target setting temperature, the indoor temperature and the target running gear, so that when the indoor temperature is close to the target setting temperature, the actual running power is greatly different from the power corresponding to the target running gear, and when the indoor temperature and the target setting temperature are greatly different, the actual running power is less different from the power corresponding to the target running gear. Through the embodiment, the actual running power of the air conditioner can be self-adaptively adjusted according to the indoor temperature, and the air conditioner can be controlled to run according to the actual running power, so that the power consumption of the air conditioner can be reduced and the service life of the air conditioner can be prolonged.

[0043] The air conditioner running control method provided by the application determines the target setting temperature and the target running gear of the air conditioner in the running process, acquires the indoor temperature in real time, and then determines the actual running power of the air conditioner in real time based on the target setting temperature, the indoor temperature and the target running gear, and controls the air conditioner to run according to the actual running power instead of the target running gear, so that the frequent start and stop of the motor in the use process of the air conditioner can be avoided, the power consumption of the air conditioner can be reduced, and the service life of the motor can be prolonged.

[0044] Figure 2 The flowchart of determining the actual running power of the air conditioner in real time based on the target setting temperature, the indoor temperature and the target running gear is provided by the application.

[0045] The air conditioner running control method will be described below. Figure 2 The air conditioner running control method will be described below.

[0046] In an exemplary embodiment of the application, the air conditioner running control method will be described below. Figure 2 It can be understood that determining the actual running power of the air conditioner in real time based on the target setting temperature, the indoor temperature and the target running gear can include steps 210 to 230, which will be introduced respectively.

[0047] In step 210, the temperature difference is determined in real time based on the target setting temperature and the indoor temperature.

[0048] In step 220, a target operation power corresponding to the target operation gear is determined based on the target operation gear.

[0049] In step 230, an actual operation power of the air conditioner is determined in real time based on the target operation power and the temperature difference.

[0050] It can be understood that when the target set temperature set by the user and the indoor temperature are greatly different, it indicates that the air conditioner needs to operate at a large power or a power set by the user, and when the target set temperature set by the user and the indoor temperature are less different, it indicates that the air conditioner does not need to operate at a large power or a power set by the user, and at this time, the target set temperature and the indoor temperature can be adaptively adjusted.

[0051] In an example, the temperature difference can be determined in real time according to the target set temperature and the indoor temperature, and the actual operation power of the air conditioner can be determined in real time by combining the target operation power determined based on the target operation gear. Thus, the real-time adaptive adjustment of the operation power of the air conditioner is realized.

[0052] It should be noted that when the temperature difference is large, it indicates that the air conditioner needs to operate at the target operation power or a power close to the target operation power, and therefore, the actual operation power can be adjusted to a small extent based on the target operation power. When the temperature difference is small, it indicates that the air conditioner does not need to operate at the target operation power or a power close to the target operation power, and therefore, the actual operation power can be adjusted to a large extent based on the target operation power.

[0053] The process of determining the actual operation power of the air conditioner in real time based on the target operation power and the temperature difference will be described below in combination with the following examples.

[0054] In another example embodiment of the present application, the actual operation power of the air conditioner can be determined in real time based on the target operation power and the temperature difference in the following manner:

[0055] The operation power adjustment value is determined in real time based on the temperature difference, wherein the temperature difference and the operation power adjustment value are in a negative correlation relationship;

[0056] The actual operation power of the air conditioner is determined in real time based on the difference between the target operation power and the operation power adjustment value.

[0057] In an embodiment, the running power adjustment value corresponding to the temperature difference value can be determined according to the temperature difference value. When the temperature difference value is larger, it indicates that the indoor temperature cannot meet the requirement of the target set temperature, and thus the air conditioner needs to run at the target running power corresponding to the target running gear or at a power value close to the target running power, and thus the running power adjustment value is relatively small, that is, the temperature difference value is negatively correlated with the running power adjustment value.

[0058] Further, the actual running power of the air conditioner is determined in real time based on the difference between the target running power and the running power adjustment value. Since the running power adjustment value is determined in real time, the actual running power of the air conditioner is also updated in real time. Thus, it can be ensured that the speed of the motor (corresponding to the actual running power of the air conditioner) is adaptively adjusted according to the gear set by the user and the ambient temperature of the indoor environment during the refrigeration or heating process of the air conditioner.

[0059] In an embodiment, when the temperature difference value is 0, the running power adjustment value is a first preset value, and the first preset value can be smaller than the power threshold, so that when the indoor temperature is the target set temperature, the air conditioner runs at a low power, and the air conditioner will not be stopped to run, so as to avoid frequent start-stop of the air conditioner.

[0060] When the temperature difference value is greater than the difference threshold, the running power adjustment value can also be 0, so that the air conditioner can run at the target running power to quickly ensure that the indoor temperature reaches the target set temperature.

[0061] For the refrigeration scene, when the indoor temperature approaches the temperature value set by the user, the speed of the motor decreases, that is, the actual running power decreases. When the indoor temperature increases, the speed of the motor is adjusted, and the speed increases, that is, the air conditioner runs at the target running power or at a power value close to the target running power. For the heating scene, the electric heating is adaptively adjusted according to the indoor temperature, the target temperature set by the user, and the speed of the motor. During the heating process, the output power of the electric heating (corresponding to the actual running power of the air conditioner) is continuously adaptively adjusted, so that the indoor temperature is maintained within the set temperature value. Since the principle of the heating scene is similar to that of the refrigeration scene, it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0062] Figure 3 is a flowchart for determining a target set temperature provided by the present application.

[0063] The following will be described in combination with Figure 3 The process of determining the target set temperature will be described.

[0064] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, determining the target set temperature can include steps 310 and 320, which will be described below.

[0065] In step 310, weather information is acquired, wherein the weather information at least includes temperature information, wind volume information and humidity information.

[0066] In step 320, a target set temperature corresponding to the weather information is determined based on the weather information and a first mapping table, wherein the first mapping table includes a correspondence between different weather information and different set temperatures.

[0067] In an embodiment, current weather information can be acquired, wherein the weather information at least includes temperature information, wind volume information, humidity information and weather condition (e.g. sunny day, cloudy day, rainy day, etc.). It can be understood that different weather information requires different target set temperatures of the air conditioner for the user.

[0068] In another embodiment, a target set temperature corresponding to the weather information can be determined according to the current weather information and a first mapping table, wherein the first mapping table includes a correspondence between different weather information and different set temperatures. Through this embodiment, the user can be directly recommended with a suitable target set temperature based on the current weather information without self-setting, thereby improving the user experience and satisfaction.

[0069] It should be noted that the correspondence between different weather information and different set temperatures in the first mapping table will affect the rationality of the target set temperature, and the process of constructing the first mapping table with rationality will be described below in combination with the following embodiments.

[0070] In another exemplary embodiment of the present application, the correspondence between each weather information and set temperature in the first mapping table can be determined in the following manner:

[0071] A plurality of previous running temperature values set by the user under the same weather information are acquired;

[0072] The maximum and minimum values of the plurality of previous running temperature values are removed to obtain a plurality of running temperature reference values;

[0073] The set temperature corresponding to the weather information is determined based on the plurality of running temperature reference values.

[0074] In an embodiment, a plurality of previous running temperature values of the user can be collected, wherein the plurality of previous running temperature values are running temperature values set by the user under the same weather information. It can be understood that the previous running temperature values are temperature values meeting the user's habits. Further, the best set temperature corresponding to the weather information will be determined in combination with the plurality of previous running temperature values meeting the user's habits.

[0075] In an example, the maximum and minimum values of the plurality of previous running temperature values can be removed to obtain a plurality of running temperature reference values, so that the extreme values in the previous running temperature values can be effectively removed, and it is ensured that the running temperature reference values are effective values matching the user habits. Further, the set temperature corresponding to the weather information is determined based on the plurality of running temperature reference values.

[0076] In an example, the set temperature corresponding to the weather information can be determined based on the average value of the plurality of running temperature reference values. In another example, the set temperature corresponding to the weather information can also be determined based on the mode of the plurality of running temperature reference values. In the present embodiment, the process of determining the set temperature based on the plurality of running temperature reference values is not specifically limited.

[0077] In another embodiment, the target set temperature can also be directly and autonomously set by the user to meet the current needs of the user.

[0078] Through the foregoing embodiments, it can be ensured that the correspondence between the weather information and the set temperature in the first mapping table is reasonable, and effectively matches the habit characteristics of the user.

[0079] Figure 4 is a flowchart of a process for determining a target running gear provided by the present application.

[0080] The following will be described in combination with Figure 4 The process of determining the target running gear will be described.

[0081] In an example embodiment of the present application, determining the target running gear can include steps 410 and 420, which will be described below.

[0082] In step 410, weather information is obtained, wherein the weather information at least includes temperature information, wind amount information and humidity information.

[0083] In step 420, a target running gear corresponding to the weather information is determined based on the weather information and a second mapping table set in advance, and the second mapping table includes the correspondence between different weather information and different running gears.

[0084] In an embodiment, the current weather information can be obtained. The weather information can at least include temperature information, wind amount information, humidity information, and weather conditions (such as sunny, cloudy, rainy, etc.). It can be understood that different weather information requires different target running gears of the air conditioner.

[0085] In yet another embodiment, the target running gear can be determined according to the current weather information and a second mapping table. The second mapping table includes a correspondence between different weather information and different running gears. Through this embodiment, the user can be directly recommended a suitable target running gear based on the current weather information without self-setting, thereby improving the user experience and satisfaction.

[0086] It should be noted that the correspondence between different weather information and different running gears in the second mapping table can affect the rationality of the target running gear. The process of constructing the second mapping table with rationality will be described below in conjunction with the following embodiments.

[0087] In another exemplary embodiment of the present application, the correspondence between each weather information and running gear in the second mapping table can be determined in the following manner:

[0088] A plurality of previous running gears set by the user under the same weather information are obtained;

[0089] The maximum gear and the minimum gear of the plurality of previous running gears are removed to obtain a plurality of reference running gears;

[0090] The running gear corresponding to the weather information is determined based on the plurality of reference running gears.

[0091] In one embodiment, a plurality of previous running gears of the user can be collected. The plurality of previous running gears can be the running gears previously set by the user under the same weather information. It can be understood that the previous running gears meet the user's habits. Further, the best running gear corresponding to the weather information will be determined based on the plurality of previous running gears meeting the user's habits.

[0092] In an example, the maximum gear and the minimum gear of the plurality of previous running gears can be removed to obtain a plurality of reference running gears, thereby effectively removing extreme values in the previous running gears and ensuring that the reference running gears are effective values matching the user's habits. Further, the running gear corresponding to the weather information is determined based on the plurality of reference running gears.

[0093] In an example, the running gear corresponding to the weather information can be determined based on the average value of the plurality of reference running gears. In yet another example, the running gear corresponding to the weather information can also be determined based on the mode of the plurality of reference running gears. In this embodiment, the process of determining the running gear based on the plurality of reference running gears is not specifically limited.

[0094] In yet another embodiment, the target running gear can also be directly and autonomously set by the user to meet the user's current needs.

[0095] Through the foregoing embodiment, it can be ensured that the correspondence between the weather information in the second mapping table and the running gear position is reasonable, and the habit characteristics of the user are effectively matched.

[0096] In order to further ensure that the target setting temperature meets the habit of the user and also considers the current physical condition (such as fever) of the user, in the application process, the target setting temperature is determined based on the foregoing factors.

[0097] In another exemplary embodiment of the present application, the air conditioner can be provided with an infrared sensor, and the target setting temperature of the air conditioner in the running process is determined by continuing to use the infrared sensor to capture the body temperature distribution of the user, determining a setting temperature adjustment value corresponding to the body temperature distribution based on the body temperature distribution, and determining the final target setting temperature of the air conditioner in the running process based on the temperature difference between the target setting temperature and the setting temperature adjustment value. Figure 1 The foregoing embodiment is described by way of example, and before determining the target setting temperature of the air conditioner in the running process, the air conditioner running control method can further include the following steps:

[0098] Based on the infrared sensor, the body temperature distribution of the user is captured;

[0099] Based on the body temperature distribution, a setting temperature adjustment value corresponding to the body temperature distribution is determined;

[0100] Further, the target setting temperature of the air conditioner in the running process can be achieved in the following manner:

[0101] Based on the temperature difference between the target setting temperature and the setting temperature adjustment value, the final target setting temperature of the air conditioner in the running process is determined.

[0102] In one embodiment, the body state of the user is different, such as the fever state and the non-fever state, and the body temperature distribution emitted by the whole body is also different. In the application process, the body temperature distribution of the user can be captured based on the infrared sensor, and further, based on the body temperature distribution, a setting temperature adjustment value corresponding to the body temperature distribution is determined. It can be understood that when the body temperature distribution belongs to the body temperature distribution in the fever state, a setting temperature adjustment value is determined, and further, the temperature difference between the target setting temperature automatically recommended by the air conditioner and the setting temperature adjustment value is determined as the final target setting temperature of the air conditioner in the running process. Through the present embodiment, it can be ensured that the target setting temperature meets the habit of the user and also considers the current physical condition of the user, so that the current actual situation of the user can be adaptively matched, and the experience and satisfaction of the user are improved.

[0103] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of a planar structure of an air conditioner provided by the present application.

[0104] Figure 5 shows a schematic diagram of a planar structure of an air conditioner. In combination with Figure 5It can be seen that the air conditioner 500 comprises a condensed water receiving tray 510, an indoor unit 520, a humidifying runner 530, a runner motor 540, a drain pipe 550, a drain pump 560 and a water level float 570. The condensed water receiving tray 510 is used to receive the condensed water discharged by the indoor unit 520; the runner motor 540 is used to drive the humidifying runner 530 to rotate, and the humidifying runner 530 is installed in the condensed water receiving tray 510. When the water level in the condensed water receiving tray 510 exceeds the warning line (such as the dotted line in the figure), the drain pipe 550 can be driven by the drain pump 560 to drain water out of the condensed water receiving tray 510. The water level in the condensed water receiving tray 510 can be determined by the water level float 570. Figure 5

[0105] For the current air conditioner, for example, a ducted air conditioner does not have a humidifying function. If a user wants to obtain the humidifying function, a separate humidifying device needs to be purchased and installed to achieve the humidifying requirement of the indoor.

[0106] The air conditioner operation control method provided by the application can humidify the indoor without separately purchasing a humidifying device and without incurring other costs.

[0107] Figure 6 is a second flowchart of the air conditioner operation control method provided by the application.

[0108] The process of realizing the indoor humidifying treatment of the air conditioner will be described below. Figure 6

[0109] In an exemplary embodiment of the application, the air conditioner operation control method comprises the steps of 610 and 620, which will be described below. Figure 6 It can be seen that the air conditioner operation control method can comprise steps 610 and 620, which will be described below.

[0110] In step 610, the indoor humidity value is collected.

[0111] In step 620, when the indoor humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, the runner motor is controlled to drive the humidifying runner to rotate based on the indoor humidity value and the preset humidity value, so that the humidifying runner humidifies the indoor based on the condensed water in the condensed water receiving tray.

[0112] In an embodiment, the indoor humidity value can be collected in real time based on the humidity sensor installed on the air conditioner. When the indoor humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, it indicates that the indoor needs to be humidified, and in this case, the runner motor can be controlled to drive the humidifying runner to rotate, so that the humidifying runner humidifies the indoor based on the condensed water in the condensed water receiving tray. In this embodiment, the water used for humidification is the condensed water generated in the refrigeration process of the air conditioner, so that no other additional costs are incurred, and by recycling the condensed water, the resource utilization rate can also be improved.​​

[0113] In another embodiment, the air conditioner is equipped with a humidity sensor that can collect indoor humidity values ​​in real time and transmit them synchronously to a user's mobile app, allowing the user to monitor the indoor humidity level in real time. When the user-set indoor humidity (corresponding to a preset humidity value) is lower than the actual indoor humidity, the air conditioner activates its humidification function. In this scenario, a rotating motor drives the humidification wheel to humidify the room. When the user-set indoor humidity is higher than the actual indoor humidity, the air conditioner activates its dehumidification mode.

[0114] The rotation speed of the rotary motor varies depending on the indoor humidity level. This will be explained below. Figure 7 The process of controlling the rotation of the humidifying wheel by the rotary motor based on the indoor humidity value and the preset humidity value is explained.

[0115] In yet another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, combined with Figure 7 As can be seen, controlling the humidification wheel to rotate based on the indoor humidity value and the preset humidity value can include steps 710 to 730, and each step will be described below.

[0116] In step 710, the humidity difference is determined based on the preset humidity value and the indoor humidity value;

[0117] In step 720, the operating speed of the rotary motor is determined based on the humidity difference, wherein the humidity difference is positively correlated with the operating speed;

[0118] In step 730, based on the operating speed, the rotary motor is controlled to drive the humidifying rotary wheel to rotate.

[0119] In one embodiment, the preset humidity value can be determined based on the user's actual situation, and this embodiment does not impose specific limitations. In one example, the preset humidity value can also be a preset humidity value automatically recommended to the user by the air conditioner based on weather information.

[0120] During application, the humidity difference can be determined based on a preset humidity value and the indoor humidity value. A larger humidity difference indicates a greater need for indoor humidification. Furthermore, the operating speed of the rotary motor can be determined based on the humidity difference, as the humidity difference is positively correlated with the operating speed. Therefore, it can be ensured that when the humidity difference is large, increasing the operating speed of the rotary motor can achieve rapid indoor humidification.

[0121] In another example, the rotary motor can be controlled to drive the humidifying wheel to rotate according to its operating speed, thereby ensuring that the indoor humidity is taken into account during the humidification process, thus improving the efficiency of the humidification process.

[0122] According to the above description, the air conditioner operation control method provided by the application can realize integration of dehumidification in the air conditioner, and reduce the cost of purchasing a humidification device for a user. Meanwhile, the air conditioner integrates a self-learning fuzzy control algorithm, and the speed of a motor and the power output of electric heating are self-adaptively adjusted in real time, instead of being adjusted by a user himself / herself at a constant speed or a constant power output. The air conditioner does not appear to be started and stopped constantly in the process of operation. In addition, by collecting the habits of a user in using the air conditioner and other parameters, and through big data analysis, the air conditioner can intelligently recommend a suggestion (for example, a target set temperature and a target operation gear) for using the air conditioner on a daily basis to each user of an APP terminal according to the weather condition of the day, and help the user to establish a good habit of using the air conditioner, and escort the health of each user.
