In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

[0032] Unless otherwise stated, the term "plurality" means two or more.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the character " / " indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship. For example, A / B indicates: A or B.

[0034] The term "and / or" is a description of the association relationship between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or, A and B.

[0035] The term "correspondence" may refer to an association relationship or a binding relationship. The correspondence between A and B means that there is an association relationship or a binding relationship between A and B.

[0036] At present, with the rapid development of science and technology, the functions of household appliances have become more diversified. Air conditioners are used more frequently in spring and summer. Frequent use of air conditioners will shorten the remaining life of consumables. When the remaining life of consumables reaches a certain threshold, consumables need to be replaced. Usually, users do not record the use of consumables, so they cannot replace consumables in time. Therefore, how to determine the life information of consumables in time has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0037] The related technology discloses a method for obtaining consumable information, including: S1: obtaining the life information of the consumable according to the identification of the consumable. S2: calculating the life information of the consumable according to the life information and usage information. S3: controlling the terminal to load an operation interface containing the remaining life. The life information of the consumable is calculated according to the life information and usage information, including: calculating the remaining life of the consumable according to the current installation time, the frequency of use of the consumable and the length of use. Through the above method, the user does not need to disassemble the consumable for inspection, which reduces the user's operating difficulty. The consumable status is displayed in time when the user uses the household appliance, avoiding the depletion of the consumable affecting the user's normal use of the household appliance.

[0038] However, when consumables are not used, their lifespan will be affected by the environment in which they are used, such as the temperature and humidity of the environment or the degree of pollution of the environment. The related art only calculates the remaining lifespan of consumables from the perspective of installation time and the frequency and duration of use of consumables. The calculated remaining lifespan of consumables is inconsistent with the actual remaining lifespan, and it is very easy for consumables to be overused but still be judged to be within their service life. Therefore, the accuracy of the remaining lifespan of consumables calculated by the related art is poor.

[0039] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a prompting method for an air conditioner, comprising:

[0040] S01, the processor obtains the loss information of the consumables, where the loss information includes usage loss and static loss.

[0041] S02: The processor determines the remaining service life of the consumables according to the wear information of the consumables.

[0042] S03: When the remaining service life meets the trigger condition, the processor pushes reminder information related to the consumables to prompt the consumables to be replaced.

[0043] With the prompt method for air conditioners provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, when consumables are left unused for a long time, the service life of the consumables will be affected by the environment. If the air conditioner is not used for a long time, the service life of the consumables will be severely shortened or even fail. The usage loss of consumables has little correlation with the actual usage environment of the consumables. In order to improve the accuracy of the remaining life of the consumables, the embodiment of the present disclosure calculates the remaining service life of the consumables from two aspects: the consumables' own usage factors and the actual environmental factors, and the calculated remaining service life is closer to the actual remaining service life. At the same time, when the remaining service life meets the trigger condition, the embodiment of the present disclosure pushes the prompt information to prompt the replacement of consumables. In this way, the user can be reminded to replace the consumables in time, avoiding the situation where the normal use of the air conditioner is affected by the failure to replace the consumables in time, thereby improving the user's usage experience.

[0044] Optionally, the processor determines whether the remaining service life meets the trigger condition in the following manner:

[0045] The remaining service life is less than or equal to the service life threshold. The service life threshold represents the service life value corresponding to the consumable in the invalid state. The service life threshold is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 10%. As an example, the service life threshold is 5%, 7% or 10%.

[0046] Optionally, the prompt information includes voice information, text information or image information. As an example, the processor pushes voice information associated with the consumables to a terminal device associated with the air conditioner. Or, the processor pushes voice information associated with the consumables to a smart home appliance associated with the air conditioner. In a specific embodiment, the processor pushes voice information associated with the consumables to a mobile device associated with the air conditioner, and the voice information includes "The deodorization module is about to expire, please replace it as soon as possible." In another specific embodiment, the processor pushes text information associated with the consumables to a mobile device associated with the air conditioner, and the text information includes "The deodorization module is about to expire, please replace it in time."

[0047] It should be noted that the prompt information also includes the remaining service life.

[0048] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, smart home appliances refer to home appliances that are formed by introducing microprocessors, sensor technology, and network communication technology into home appliances. They have the characteristics of intelligent control, intelligent perception, and intelligent application. The operation process of smart home appliances often relies on the application and processing of modern technologies such as the Internet of Things, the Internet, and electronic chips. For example, smart home appliances can be connected to electronic devices to enable users to remotely control and manage the smart home appliances.

[0049] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal device refers to an electronic device with a wireless connection function. The terminal device can communicate with the above-mentioned smart home appliances by connecting to the Internet, or can directly communicate with the above-mentioned smart home appliances through Bluetooth, WiFi, etc. In some embodiments, the terminal device is, for example, a mobile device, a computer, or a vehicle-mounted device built into a hover car, or any combination thereof. Mobile devices may include, for example, mobile phones, smart home devices, wearable devices, smart mobile devices, virtual reality devices, etc., or any combination thereof, wherein wearable devices include, for example: smart watches, smart bracelets, pedometers, etc.

[0050] Optionally, the processor obtains the loss information of the consumables, including:

[0051] After the consumables are installed for the first time, the processor obtains the cumulative power-on time T of the consumables total And the effective static time T un Among them, the cumulative power-on time of the consumables is T total Indicates the effective time corresponding to the continuous use of consumables. un Indicates the effective time when the consumables are kept at rest. As an example, when the actual rest time of the consumables is less than T un When the actual static time of the consumable is greater than or equal to T un The consumables are in an invalid state.

[0052] The processor obtains the current query time T i And the installation time T0 of the consumables.

[0053] Processor according to T i and T0, determine T i -The running time of the air conditioner in the time period T0 k .

[0054] The processor obtains the consumption L of the consumables according to the following formula: was And the static loss L un :

[0055]

[0056] In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure is based on the accumulated boot time T total and T i - The running time of the air conditioner in the T0 period T k Use loss L was Calculation, and according to T i -T0 time period, static effective time T un Air conditioning in T i - The running time of the air conditioner in the T0 period Tk Static loss L un In this way, the usage loss L can be determined by combining the specific usage factors of the consumables and the environmental factors. was and the static loss L un , which is conducive to improving the accuracy of loss information calculation and further improving the accuracy of remaining life of consumables.

[0057] Optionally, in the case where the consumable is a deodorizing module, T total =700h, T un = 1.5 years. In the case of other consumables that are modular, T total The cumulative power-on time of the deodorization module is different from that of the deodorization module, and T un The effective standing time is different from that of the deodorization module.

[0058] Optionally, the processor determines the remaining service life S of the consumable according to the consumption information of the consumable. i ,include:

[0059] S i =(1-L was -L un )×100%.

[0060] In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure considers two different types of loss information, namely, usage loss and static loss, and calculates the percentage after subtracting the value 1 from the usage loss and static loss. In this way, the calculated remaining service life is closer to the actual remaining service life, avoiding the situation where the consumables have been overused but are still judged to have a remaining service life within the service life, thereby improving the accuracy of the remaining service life calculation of the consumables.

[0061] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides another prompting method for an air conditioner, comprising:

[0062] S11, after the consumables are installed for the first time, the processor obtains the cumulative startup time T of the consumables total And the effective static time T un .

[0063] S12, the processor obtains the current query time T i And the installation time T0 of the consumables.

[0064] S13, processor according to T i and T0, determine T i -The running time of the air conditioner in the time period T0 k .

[0065] S14, the processor obtains the consumption L of the consumables according to the following formula was And the static loss Lun :

[0066]

[0067] S15: The processor determines the remaining service life of the consumables according to the wear information of the consumables.

[0068] S16: When the remaining service life meets the trigger condition, the processor pushes reminder information related to the consumables to prompt the consumables to be replaced.

[0069] S17, when the processor receives the first response information, it updates the remaining service life of the consumable to the initial service life value, and updates the installation time T0 of the consumable to the current response time.

[0070] S18: When the processor receives the second response information, it keeps the remaining service life of the consumable and T0 unchanged.

[0071] The first response information is used to indicate that the consumable material replacement operation has been performed, and the second response information is used to indicate that the consumable material replacement operation is not performed.

[0072] Using the prompt method for air conditioners provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the processor pushes the prompt information related to the consumables, if the first response information is received, it indicates that the user has performed the consumable replacement operation. At this time, the remaining service life of the consumable needs to be recalculated. Therefore, the embodiment of the present disclosure updates the remaining service life of the consumable to the initial value of the life, and updates the installation time of the consumable to the current response time. If the second response information is received, it indicates that the user does not perform the consumable replacement operation for the time being. At this time, the embodiment of the present disclosure keeps the remaining service life of the consumable and the installation time of the consumable unchanged for subsequent update calculations of the remaining service life. In this way, after sending the prompt information to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the remaining service life and / or installation time can be updated or maintained according to the user's feedback, which is conducive to prompting the accuracy of the subsequent calculation of the remaining life of the consumables.

[0073] Optionally, the first response information and the second response information may be voice information. In a specific embodiment, the first response information includes voice information carrying affirmative words. The affirmative words may be words such as replaced, completed, and replaced. In another specific embodiment, the second response information includes voice information carrying negative words. The negative words may be words such as not needed, no, not needed, or not necessary.

[0074] Optionally, when the remaining service life meets the trigger condition, after the processor pushes the prompt information associated with the consumable, the process further includes:

[0075] When the processor does not receive the response information, it keeps the remaining service life of the consumable and T0 unchanged, and pushes the reminder information related to the consumable again. The response information includes the first response information and the second response information.

[0076] In this way, when the processor does not receive the response information, it indicates that the user has not responded to the prompt information. At this time, the processor keeps the remaining service life of the consumables and T0 unchanged, and pushes the prompt information associated with the consumables again, so as to achieve the purpose of timely reminding to replace the consumables by pushing again.

[0077] Optionally, the processor pushes prompt information related to the consumables, including:

[0078] The processor pushes the reminder information related to the consumables according to the information push rules.

[0079] Among them, the information push rule includes pushing the prompt information at a preset frequency. The preset frequency includes pushing once every preset number of days. The preset number of days is 7 days, 17 days or 30 days. It can be understood that the preset number of days can also be other values ​​other than the above values.

[0080] In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure pushes reminder information related to consumables according to the information push rules, so that the user can receive the reminder information in the first time, which is conducive to improving the timeliness of the reminder of consumable update.

[0081] Optionally, combined Figure 3 As shown, the processor pushes prompt information related to consumables, including:

[0082] S21, the processor obtains type information of the consumables, and generates prompt information associated with the type information.

[0083] In this step, the consumables are modular consumables, and the type information of the consumables includes deodorization module and fresh air module.

[0084] S22, the processor pushes prompt information to an electronic device associated with the air conditioner in response to the control instruction, wherein the control instruction is used to instruct the air conditioner to perform a power-on operation. The electronic device includes a smart home appliance or a terminal device.

[0085] In this way, when determining that the remaining service life meets the trigger condition, the embodiment of the present disclosure first obtains the type information of the consumables and generates the prompt information associated therewith. Then, in response to the control instruction instructing the air conditioner to perform the power-on operation, the prompt information is pushed to the electronic device, so that the user of the electronic device can receive the prompt information when the air conditioner is turned on, which is conducive to improving the timeliness of the reminder of consumable update.

[0086] In this step, the electronic device is configured with an application associated with consumables. The processor pushes prompt information to the electronic device associated with the air conditioner in response to the control instruction, including: the processor pushes the prompt information to the application associated with the air conditioner in response to the control instruction, so as to push the information through the application. It should be noted that when the prompt information includes the remaining service life, the electronic device can also store the remaining service life after receiving the prompt information. In this way, it is convenient to trace the remaining life of the consumables.

[0087] Optionally, combined Figure 4 As shown, the processor pushes prompt information related to consumables, including:

[0088] S31, the processor obtains type information of the consumables, and generates prompt information associated with the type information.

[0089] S32, the processor obtains identification information of the air conditioner in response to the control instruction, where the control instruction is used to instruct the air conditioner to perform a power-on operation.

[0090] S33, the processor determines the electronic device corresponding to the identification information according to the identification information, wherein the electronic device includes a smart home appliance or a terminal device.

[0091] In this step, the processor pre-associates the identification information of the air conditioner with the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the electronic device. The processor determines the electronic device corresponding to the identification information based on the identification information, including: the processor determines the MAC address corresponding to the identification information based on a pre-stored association relationship to determine the electronic device corresponding to the identification information.

[0092] S34, the processor pushes prompt information to the electronic device associated with the air conditioner.

[0093] In this way, after generating the prompt information associated with the type information, the embodiment of the present disclosure obtains the identification information of the air conditioner in response to the control instruction instructing the air conditioner to perform the power-on operation, and determines the electronic device corresponding to it according to the above identification information. Then the prompt information is pushed to the electronic device. In this way, the pushed device object can be accurately identified according to the identification information of the air conditioner, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the consumables update reminder.
