[0044] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] The formaldehyde removal control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention is applied to the air conditioner 10. Figure 1 The air conditioner 10 is communicatively connected with the control device 20. When the user is indoors, the control device 20 can be used to control the air conditioner 10 to remove formaldehyde powerfully. When the user needs to go out or is already outdoors, the control device 20 can be used to control the air conditioner 10 to remove formaldehyde in the drying room. In this way, formaldehyde can be removed by utilizing the time the user is indoors and the time the user is outdoors, thereby improving the formaldehyde removal efficiency.

[0046] Powerful formaldehyde removal means that when the user has a higher demand for formaldehyde removal, the wind speed of the air conditioner 10 is automatically adjusted to a strong wind speed, thereby increasing the air flow rate through the formaldehyde removal substrate set in the air conditioner 10, thereby improving the formaldehyde removal efficiency.

[0047] Formaldehyde removal in a drying room means that when a user needs to go out or is already outdoors, the room is heated by controlling the air conditioner 10. When the temperature is high, the formaldehyde release is accelerated, and the corresponding formaldehyde removal substrate adsorbs and decomposes more formaldehyde, so that the time when the user is outdoors can be used for formaldehyde removal. At the same time, when removing formaldehyde in the drying room, the air conditioner 10 can also automatically adjust the operating mode according to the initial indoor temperature, thereby improving the formaldehyde removal efficiency and saving energy.

[0048] The control device 20 may be a remote controller, which controls the air conditioner 10 through wireless technologies such as infrared or radio frequency. When the user is indoors, the remote controller can be used to control the air conditioner 10 for strong formaldehyde removal, and when the user needs to go out, the remote controller can be used to control the air conditioner 10 for room formaldehyde removal.

[0049] The control device 20 may also be a wired controller, which is connected to the air conditioner 10 via a cable and can control the air conditioner 10. When the user is indoors, the wired controller can be used to control the air conditioner 10 to perform strong formaldehyde removal, and when the user needs to go out, the wired controller can be used to control the air conditioner 10 to perform room formaldehyde removal.

[0050] The control device 20 may also be a mobile terminal, which is connected to the air conditioner 10 through a network, and the mobile terminal is installed with an application (APP) for controlling the air conditioner 10. When the user is indoors, the air conditioner 10 can be controlled by the APP to remove strong formaldehyde, and when the user needs to go out or is already outdoors, the air conditioner 10 can be controlled by the APP to remove formaldehyde in the drying room. The mobile terminal may be, but is not limited to, a smart phone, a tablet computer, a personal computer, a wearable smart device (e.g., a bracelet, a smart watch), etc.

[0051] The air conditioner 10 in this embodiment can be an air conditioner with a formaldehyde removal function, for example, a multi-split air conditioner, a variable frequency air conditioner, a fixed frequency air conditioner, a heat pump air conditioner, etc., in which a formaldehyde removal substrate is provided in the indoor unit, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this. The formaldehyde removal substrate can reduce or remove harmful substances such as formaldehyde in the air, and can include manganese dioxide, activated carbon, photocatalyst materials, etc.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the process of the formaldehyde removal control method provided by the present invention is shown, and the formaldehyde removal control method may include the following steps:

[0053] S101, when a drying room instruction is received from a control device, the air conditioner is turned on, and the air conditioner is controlled according to the initial indoor temperature to remove formaldehyde in the drying room.

[0054] S103, if the drying room exit instruction sent by the control device is received within the set drying room time, the air conditioner is controlled to exit the drying room for formaldehyde removal and shut down.

[0055] S104, if the drying room exit instruction sent by the control device is not received within the set drying room time, then after the set drying room time is reached, the air conditioner is controlled to exit the drying room for formaldehyde removal and shut down.

[0056] In this embodiment, when the user needs to go out or is already outdoors, the time when the user is outdoors can be used to dry the room for formaldehyde removal. The drying time can be set by the user according to his / her outing time, for example, X hours.

[0057] When the control device is a remote control or a wire controller, when the user needs to go out, the remote control or the wire controller sends a drying room instruction to the air conditioner 10, and the air conditioner 10 automatically turns on to remove formaldehyde in the drying room. The user can set the drying room time for X hours according to the time he is out. If the user returns indoors within X hours, the remote control or the wire controller sends an exit drying room instruction to the air conditioner 10, and the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the drying room formaldehyde removal and shuts down automatically. Otherwise, after X hours, the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the drying room formaldehyde removal and shuts down automatically.

[0058] Optionally, a one-button drying button may be provided on the remote control or wire controller. When the user presses the one-button drying button, a drying instruction may be sent to the air conditioner 10. When the user presses the one-button drying button again, an exit drying instruction may be sent to the air conditioner 10.

[0059] When the control device is a mobile terminal, when the user needs to go out or is already outdoors, a drying room instruction is sent to the air conditioner 10 through the APP, and the air conditioner 10 automatically turns on to remove formaldehyde in the drying room. The user can set the drying room time to X hours according to the time he is out. If the user returns indoors within X hours or has other needs, a drying room exit instruction is sent to the air conditioner 10 through the APP, and the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the drying room formaldehyde removal and shuts down automatically. Otherwise, after X hours, the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the drying room formaldehyde removal and shuts down automatically.

[0060] In this embodiment, during the drying room formaldehyde removal, the air conditioner 10 can automatically adjust the operation mode according to different initial indoor temperatures, thereby saving energy. Therefore, the process of controlling the air conditioner to remove formaldehyde from the drying room according to the initial indoor temperature in step S101 can include sub-steps S1011 to S1012.

[0061] S1011: If the initial indoor temperature is greater than or equal to the set temperature, the air conditioner is set to ventilation mode.

[0062] S1012, if the initial indoor temperature is lower than the set temperature, the air conditioner is set to a heating mode and operates at the set temperature and a high wind speed.

[0063] In the present embodiment, the set temperature may be a temperature that can accelerate the release of formaldehyde, for example, 30°C. If the initial indoor temperature is high, for example, ≥30°C, due to the high indoor temperature, more formaldehyde is released, then the air conditioner 10 automatically turns on the ventilation mode, increases the air flow rate through the formaldehyde removal substrate for efficient formaldehyde removal, which not only saves electricity, but also allows efficient formaldehyde removal. If the initial indoor temperature is low, for example, less than 30°C, due to the low indoor temperature, less formaldehyde is released, then the air conditioner 10 automatically turns on the heating mode, the heating temperature is set to 30°C, the room is heated to accelerate the release of formaldehyde, and the windshield is automatically adjusted to a strong windshield, which not only accelerates the room temperature rise, but also increases the air flow rate through the formaldehyde removal substrate, and accelerates the formaldehyde removal efficiency.

[0064] The following is a detailed description of the process of controlling the air conditioner 10 to remove formaldehyde in the drying room through the APP when the control device is a mobile terminal.

[0065] When the control device is a mobile terminal, the mobile terminal is installed with an APP for controlling the air conditioner 10, and the initial interface of the APP is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the drying room instruction can be generated by the user triggering the one-key drying room control in the initial interface. After the user triggers the one-key drying room control in the initial interface, the APP switches from the initial interface to Figure 4 In the drying room formaldehyde removal interface shown, the exit drying room instruction can be generated by the user triggering the end control in the drying room formaldehyde removal interface.

[0066] That is, taking the example of a user who is already outdoors, the user can open the APP and the APP will display Figure 3 In the initial interface shown, the user can set the drying time to X hours according to his / her own time away from home, and click the "one-key drying" control, the air conditioner 10 automatically turns on, and the APP switches from the initial interface to Figure 4 The drying room formaldehyde removal interface shown in the figure, at this time, the temperature sensor on the air conditioner 10 inside the machine will collect the room temperature and display it on the APP, and the room temperature is the initial indoor temperature. The air conditioner 10 can enter different operating modes according to the initial indoor temperature: ventilation mode or heating mode, and display it on the APP. In this way, although the user is outdoors, he can also understand the operating status of the air conditioner 10 through the APP.

[0067] At the same time, in addition to displaying the room temperature and the operating mode of the air conditioner 10, during the drying room formaldehyde removal process, the APP will also display the drying room formaldehyde removal progress according to the drying room time set by the user. Figure 5 , after step S101, the formaldehyde removal control method provided by the present invention further includes step S102.

[0068] S102, when the air conditioner is performing formaldehyde removal in the drying room, the operation mode of the air conditioner and the real-time progress of formaldehyde removal in the drying room are displayed through the formaldehyde removal interface of the mobile terminal.

[0069] like Figure 4 As shown, a circular countdown icon can be set, with "Drying room formaldehyde removal progress" marked on the top, and the middle indicating the X-hour countdown for drying room formaldehyde removal. The surrounding lights gradually go out over time, and there is an "end control" at the bottom. If the user returns to the room within X hours or has other needs, click the "end" control, and the air conditioner 10 will automatically exit the drying room formaldehyde removal and shut down automatically.

[0070] The above introduces the process of removing formaldehyde from the room by utilizing the time when the user needs to go out or is already outdoors. The following is a detailed introduction to the process of using the air conditioner 10 to perform strong formaldehyde removal in the room when the user is indoors and has a higher demand for formaldehyde removal.

[0071] Please refer to Figure 6 The formaldehyde removal control method provided by the present invention also includes steps S105 to S107.

[0072] S105, when the air conditioner is running in the normal formaldehyde removal mode, when a strong formaldehyde removal instruction is received from the control device, the air conditioner is switched to the strong formaldehyde removal mode, and the wind speed is adjusted from the initial wind speed to the strong wind speed.

[0073] S106, if the exit command of the powerful formaldehyde removal is received from the control device within the preset time, the air conditioner is switched back to the normal formaldehyde removal mode, and the wind speed is adjusted from the powerful wind speed to the initial wind speed.

[0074] S107, if the exit command of the powerful formaldehyde removal sent by the control device is not received within the preset time, the air conditioner is switched back to the normal formaldehyde removal mode after the preset time is reached, and the wind speed is adjusted from the powerful wind speed to the initial wind speed.

[0075] In this embodiment, the preset duration can be the strong formaldehyde removal duration set by the user according to his or her own needs, or it can be the strong formaldehyde removal time set when the air conditioner 10 leaves the factory, for example, 1 hour, and no restrictions are made here.

[0076] The common formaldehyde removal mode can be a mode in which the air conditioner 10 is running and there is wind flow, for example, a cooling mode, a heating mode, etc. That is, no matter which operating mode (such as cooling, heating, etc.), as long as there is wind flow, the air conditioner 10 performs common formaldehyde removal.

[0077] When the control device is a remote controller or a wire controller, if the user is indoors and has a stronger demand for formaldehyde removal, a strong formaldehyde removal instruction can be sent to the air conditioner 10 by a remote controller or a wire controller, and now the air conditioner 10 enters a strong formaldehyde removal mode, and the windshield automatically becomes a strong windshield, increasing the air flow rate through the formaldehyde removal substrate. If there is no external interference in the preset duration (such as 1h), the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the strong formaldehyde removal mode after 1h, and the windshield is automatically adjusted to the windshield before the strong formaldehyde removal, and the air conditioner 10 continues the ordinary formaldehyde removal. If the user needs to exit the strong formaldehyde removal mode in the preset duration (such as 1h), the remote controller or the wire controller can be used to send an exit strong formaldehyde removal instruction to the air conditioner 10, and the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the strong formaldehyde removal mode, and the windshield is automatically adjusted to the windshield before the strong formaldehyde removal, and the air conditioner 10 continues the ordinary formaldehyde removal.

[0078] Optionally, a powerful formaldehyde removal button can be provided on the remote control or wire controller. When the user presses the powerful formaldehyde removal button, a powerful formaldehyde removal instruction can be sent to the air conditioner 10. When the user presses the powerful formaldehyde removal button again, an exit powerful formaldehyde removal instruction can be sent to the air conditioner 10.

[0079] When the control device is a mobile terminal, if the user is indoors and has a stronger demand for formaldehyde removal, a strong formaldehyde removal instruction can be sent to the air conditioner 10 through APP, and now the air conditioner 10 enters the strong formaldehyde removal mode, and the windshield automatically becomes a strong windshield, increasing the air flow rate through the formaldehyde removal substrate. If there is no external interference within the preset duration (such as 1h), the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the strong formaldehyde removal mode after 1h, and the windshield is automatically adjusted to the windshield before the strong formaldehyde removal, and the air conditioner 10 continues the ordinary formaldehyde removal. If the user needs to exit the strong formaldehyde removal mode within the preset duration (such as 1h), the exit strong formaldehyde removal instruction can be sent to the air conditioner 10 through APP, and the air conditioner 10 automatically exits the strong formaldehyde removal mode, and the windshield is automatically adjusted to the windshield before the strong formaldehyde removal, and the air conditioner 10 continues the ordinary formaldehyde removal.

[0080] The strong formaldehyde removal command can be triggered by the user Figure 3 It is generated by the powerful formaldehyde removal control in the initial interface shown. After the user triggers the powerful formaldehyde removal control in the initial interface, the APP switches from the initial interface to Figure 7 The powerful formaldehyde removal interface shown, the exit powerful formaldehyde removal command is generated by the user triggering the end control in the powerful formaldehyde removal interface.

[0081] like Figure 7As shown, a circular countdown icon can be set, with "Powerful formaldehyde removal progress" marked on the top, the middle indicating the 1-hour countdown for powerful formaldehyde removal, the surrounding lights gradually go out over time, and there is an "end control" at the bottom. If the user needs to exit the powerful formaldehyde removal mode within 1 hour, click the "end" control, the air conditioner 10 will automatically exit the powerful formaldehyde removal mode, the wind speed will automatically adjust to the wind speed before powerful formaldehyde removal, and the air conditioner 10 will continue with normal formaldehyde removal.

[0082] At the same time, in order to make the user's perception stronger, a health icon (e.g., indicator light) can be set on the air conditioner 10. The health icon is used to indicate the current formaldehyde removal state of the air conditioner 10 through different colors, that is, the color change of the health icon indicates the switching between the ordinary formaldehyde removal mode and the strong formaldehyde removal mode. Figure 6 On the basis of the above, the formaldehyde removal control method provided by the present invention further comprises the following steps:

[0083] When the air conditioner is running in normal formaldehyde removal mode, the health icon is displayed in the first color;

[0084] When the air conditioner is switched to the strong formaldehyde removal mode, the health icon switches to display the second color;

[0085] When the air conditioner switches back to normal formaldehyde removal mode, the health icon returns to displaying the first color.

[0086] Optionally, the first color may be green and the second color may be blue. That is, when the air conditioner 10 performs ordinary formaldehyde removal, the health icon on the panel of the air conditioner 10 displays green; when the air conditioner 10 switches to the strong formaldehyde removal mode, the health icon changes from green to blue, and the user's perception is stronger; when the air conditioner 10 switches back to the ordinary formaldehyde removal mode, the health icon changes from blue to the original green.

[0087] Compared with the prior art, the formaldehyde removal control method provided by the present invention has the following advantages:

[0088] First of all, when the user is indoors and has a stronger demand for formaldehyde removal, he can choose strong formaldehyde removal. When the user needs to go out or is already outdoors, he can choose drying room formaldehyde removal. In this way, different formaldehyde removal can be carried out according to the different needs of users. It can not only use the time when the user is indoors to remove formaldehyde, but also use the time when the user is outdoors to remove formaldehyde, thereby improving the efficiency of formaldehyde removal.

[0089] Second, during formaldehyde removal in the drying room, the operating mode can be automatically adjusted according to different initial indoor temperatures, which increases the air flow rate through the formaldehyde removal substrate and speeds up the formaldehyde removal efficiency.

[0090] Third, when switching between normal formaldehyde removal mode and strong formaldehyde removal mode, the color of the health icon changes automatically accordingly, giving users a stronger sense of it.

[0091] In order to execute the corresponding steps in the above-mentioned embodiment and each possible implementation mode, an implementation method of the formaldehyde removal control device is given below.

[0092] Please refer to Figure 8 , which is a functional module diagram of the formaldehyde removal control device 100 provided by the present invention.
