[0002] With the continuous development of air conditioners, there are various ways for air conditioner circuit boards to drive DC fans. For example, the main control chip directly drives the fan through pulse width modulation (PWM), and another example is that the main control chip communicates with the fan driver chip through serial communication, and then drives the fan through the fan driver chip. Therefore, the generalization of air conditioner circuit boards is getting higher and higher, and there may be one or more fan drive circuits on the air conditioner circuit board.

It should be understood that a person of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that the invention can be implemented without using these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not elaborated in detail to avoid obscuring the description of the invention with unnecessary details. Therefore, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed in this application.

[0066] First, the terms involved in this application are explained:

[0067] Air Conditioner: Generally, it includes cold source / heat source equipment, cold and hot medium distribution system, terminal device and other auxiliary equipment. It mainly includes refrigeration host, water pump, fan and pipeline system. The terminal device is responsible for using the cold and hot water distributed to process the air state so that the air parameters of the target environment meet certain requirements.

[0068] Pulse Width Modulation: Pulse Width Modulation, PWM, is a technique used in electronics and control systems to control the power supply to devices. PWM controls the delivery of average power by rapidly switching a signal on and off at a fixed frequency, adjusting the width of the on time (duty cycle).

[0069] Air conditioner fan: An important component in an air conditioning system that circulates and distributes air. It is usually located in the indoor unit or duct system and is responsible for blowing air to the room or other parts of the air conditioning system. The main function of the air conditioner fan is to draw air in and distribute it to different rooms or areas through the duct system by rotating blades or propellers. It can help regulate indoor temperature, humidity and air flow to provide a comfortable indoor environment. Air conditioner fans are usually driven by electric motors, and the speed and air volume can be adjusted as needed. By controlling the speed and air volume of the fan, functions such as temperature regulation, air circulation and air quality control can be achieved.

[0070] Feedback pin: In an electronic circuit, a feedback pin refers to a pin or terminal used to provide a feedback signal. In the embodiment of the present application, it is a pin for receiving a feedback signal from a fan.

[0071] The embodiments of the present application provide a method, device, electronic device, and computer-readable storage medium for determining the drive type of an air conditioner fan. Specifically, the embodiments of the present application provide a device for determining the drive type of an air conditioner fan applicable to the method for determining the drive type of an air conditioner fan, and the device for determining the drive type of an air conditioner fan is applied to an air conditioner device and a main control device of the air conditioner device, such as a wall-mounted air conditioner, a cabinet air conditioner, a window air conditioner, a ceiling air conditioner, an embedded air conditioner, etc.

[0072] In the prior art, with the continuous development of air-conditioning and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, air-conditioning products have become more and more popular, and users have higher and higher requirements for the comfort of air-conditioning products.

[0073] However, in the existing air conditioner fan drive type determination technology, when judging the fan drive type of the air conditioner, the fan type and parameters fixedly written in the memory are mainly read and identified to achieve the distinction between different drive types of the air conditioner fan. By reading and identifying the fan type and parameters fixedly written in the memory, the program has a low degree of universality, and frequent changes or verification of parameter information during the development process will increase the workload of developers. If the parameter error in the program is not discovered and has been produced, the relevant personnel are required to return the program, which further increases labor costs.

[0074] The embodiment of the present application provides a method, device, electronic device and computer-readable storage medium for determining the drive type of an air conditioner fan. The method adopts a technical solution of receiving first drive information and second drive information from an air conditioner control panel, wherein the first drive information is used to characterize the drive condition of the air conditioner fan at a target speed within a first time, and the second drive information is used to characterize the drive condition of the air conditioner fan at a target speed within a second time; when the first drive information and the second drive information are consistent, determining the drive type of the air conditioner fan according to the first drive information and the second drive information.

[0075] In summary, the method for determining the air-conditioning fan drive type provided in the embodiment of the present application can confirm the drive circuit used by the air conditioner based on the feedback drive information, without the need to frequently confirm the drive type and parameters of the air-conditioning fan, thereby achieving the technical effect of avoiding frequent changes in the fan drive type and parameters, reducing the workload of developers, and reducing labor costs.

[0076] It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the priority order of the embodiments.

[0077] For details, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 : is a flow chart of the detection device provided in the embodiment of the present application executing the method for determining the drive type of the air conditioner fan, wherein the specific execution process of the detection device executing the method for determining the drive type of the air conditioner fan is as follows:

[0078] S101: Receive first driving information and second driving information from an air conditioning control panel.

[0079] In the embodiment of the present application, the first driving information is used to characterize the driving condition of the air-conditioning fan at the target speed within the first time, and the second driving information is used to characterize the driving condition of the air-conditioning fan at the target speed within the second time.

[0080] It should be noted that, before the second time, after receiving the first driving information returned by the air conditioning control board, the target speed is sent to the air conditioning control board (or air conditioner), and the second driving information returned by the air conditioning control board is received.

[0081] As a possible embodiment, an air conditioner control board, that is, a main control circuit board of an air conditioner, has a higher degree of commonality as circuit boards continue to develop. Therefore, there may be one or more fan drive circuits on the circuit board.

[0082] Optionally, the method for determining the air conditioning fan drive type provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes: sending the target speed to the air conditioning control board through the pulse width modulation drive circuit within the first time, and sending the target speed to the air conditioning control board through the serial communication drive circuit within the first time.

[0083] In the embodiment of the present application, it is taken as an example that a serial communication driving circuit and a pulse width modulation driving circuit exist on the air conditioning control board. Figure 2 The first process diagram of the method for determining the air conditioner fan drive type of the dual drive circuit shown is that the air conditioner is powered on and enters the detection mode. At the first time (not a specific moment, the air conditioner fan drive type can be determined at any time), the target speed is sent to the air conditioner control board through the serial communication drive circuit and the pulse width modulation drive circuit at the same time.

[0084] It should be noted that, during the process of sending the target speed, the target speed can be converted into a signal form corresponding to the serial communication drive circuit and / or the pulse width modulation drive circuit for sending, so that the control board can recognize it in time and drive the fan to operate according to the target speed.

[0085] Optionally, the serial communication drive circuit directly sends the target rotation speed to the fan drive chip, and the fan drive drives the fan according to the target wind speed.

[0086] Optionally, the pulse width modulation drive circuit needs to adjust the duty cycle of the target speed through an algorithm to obtain a control signal, thereby driving the fan.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present application, after sending the target speed to the air conditioning control board through the serial communication drive circuit and the pulse width modulation drive circuit, the first drive information returned by the air conditioning control board is received and stored in the memory.

[0088] Alternatively, Figure 2 As shown, the content of the first driving information may include but is not limited to: no fan feedback and no serial communication data, fan feedback and no serial communication data, serial communication data and no fan feedback, fan feedback and serial communication data.

[0089] It should be noted that the fan feedback is the voltage signal fed back by the fan. When the fan is successfully driven to rotate, a voltage signal can be sent out, and the existence or normality of the pulse width modulation drive circuit can be judged based on the voltage signal. For example, when the fan rotates, high and low pulse voltages will be output to the control board, and when the fan does not rotate, only high or low levels will be output to the control board.

[0090] Correspondingly, the serial communication data is the data fed back by the fan through the serial communication. When the fan is successfully driven to rotate, it can also send communication data. The serial communication drive circuit can be judged whether it exists or is normal based on the communication data. For example: the control board sends the target speed to the fan drive chip through the serial port. The fan drive chip can obtain the fan speed after controlling the fan to start. The fan drive chip will send the obtained fan speed back to the control board. If not, the fan drive chip will not have communication data to reply to the control board, and the drive circuit does not exist.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present application, after receiving the first driving information returned by the air-conditioning control panel, the received driving information can be stored, and the rotation condition and speed of the fan during the driving can be recorded.

[0092] After receiving the first drive information returned by the air-conditioning control board, optionally, the air-conditioning fan drive type determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes: sending the target speed to the air-conditioning control board through the pulse width modulation drive circuit within the second time, and sending the target speed to the air-conditioning control board through the serial communication drive circuit within the second time.

[0093] In the present application embodiment, Figure 3 The second process diagram of the method for determining the air conditioning fan drive type of the dual drive circuit shown in the figure, after receiving the first drive information returned by the air conditioning control board, sends the target speed to the air conditioning control board again through the serial communication drive circuit and the pulse width modulation drive circuit at the second time.

[0094] It should be noted that the target speed sent at the first time is the same as the target speed sent at the second time.

[0095] In the embodiment of the present application, if the second driving information returned by the control board is received, the first driving information is obtained from the memory and compared to complete the determination of the air conditioner fan driving type.

[0096] Before receiving the first drive information and the second drive information from the air conditioning control panel, optionally, the air conditioning fan drive type determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes: when it is determined that the accumulated time exceeds the preset time, determining that the air conditioning fan drive circuit is abnormal.

[0097] In the embodiment of the present application, the accumulated time starts counting after the target speed is sent to the air conditioning control board.

[0098] Alternatively, Figure 2 As shown, when there is no fan feedback and no serial communication data, that is, when it is determined that the cumulative duration exceeds the preset duration, the first drive information returned by the air-conditioning control board is not received, and it is determined that the fan drive circuit of the air conditioner is abnormal (both the serial communication drive circuit and the pulse width modulation drive circuit are abnormal).

[0099] Accordingly, still Figure 3 As shown, when it is determined that the cumulative duration exceeds the preset duration and the second drive information returned by the air-conditioning control board is not received, it is also determined that the fan drive circuit of the air-conditioning is abnormal, that is, both the serial communication drive circuit and the pulse width modulation drive circuit are abnormal.

[0100] It should be noted that the first driving information and the second driving information can be transmitted through the feedback pin.

[0101] S102: When the first driving information and the second driving information are consistent, determine the fan driving type of the air conditioner according to the first driving information and the second driving information.

[0102] In the embodiment of the present application, after the first driving information and the second driving information are successfully received, the first driving information and the second driving information are compared and processed, and the fan driving type of the air conditioner is determined according to the comparison result.

[0103] Before determining the fan drive type of the air conditioner according to the first drive information and the second drive information, optionally, the air conditioner fan drive type determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes: determining the first fan speed and / or the first pulse width according to the first drive information; determining the second fan speed and / or the second pulse width according to the second drive information; and determining that the first drive information and the second drive information are consistent when the first fan speed and the second fan speed are consistent, and / or the first pulse width and the second pulse width are consistent.

[0104] In the embodiment of the present application, after the first drive information and the second drive information are successfully received, the fan speed and / or pulse width in the first drive information and the second drive information are obtained.

[0105] For example, the first fan speed is determined according to the first driving information, and the second fan speed is determined according to the second driving information. If the first fan speed and the second fan speed are the same, it is determined that the first driving information and the second driving information are consistent.

[0106] For another example, the first pulse width is determined according to the first driving information, and the second pulse width is determined according to the second driving information. If the first pulse width and the second pulse width are the same, it is determined that the first driving information and the second driving information are consistent.

[0107] For example, the first fan speed and the first pulse width are determined according to the first drive information, and the second fan speed and the second pulse width are determined according to the second drive information. If the first fan speed and the second fan speed are the same, and the first pulse width and the second pulse width are the same, then it is determined that the first drive information and the second drive information are consistent.

[0108] It should be noted that if the first fan speed and the second fan speed are the same, the first pulse width and the second pulse width are different; or if the first fan speed and the second fan speed are different, the first pulse width and the second pulse width are the same, it is also determined that the first drive information and the second drive information are consistent. Here, it can also be set that the first drive information and the second drive information are inconsistent according to actual conditions.

[0109] After receiving the first drive information and the second drive information from the air conditioning control board, optionally, the air conditioning fan drive type determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes: when the first drive information and the second drive information are inconsistent, determining that the air conditioning fan drive circuit is abnormal.

[0110] In an embodiment of the present application, if the first fan speed is different from the second fan speed, and the first pulse width is different from the second pulse width, it can be determined that the first drive information is inconsistent with the second drive information, and then it can be determined that the fan drive circuit of the air conditioner is abnormal.

[0111] Optionally, the method for determining the air conditioner fan drive type provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes: when the first fan speed, the second fan speed and the target speed are consistent, determining that the air conditioner fan drive type is a serial communication drive.

[0112] In an embodiment of the present application, after receiving the second drive information, if the second drive information is serial communication data (second fan speed) and no fan feedback, the drive information (first fan speed) corresponding to the serial communication drive circuit stored in the memory is obtained, and the first fan speed, the second fan speed and the target speed are compared. If the speeds are consistent, it is determined that the fan drive type of the air conditioner is a serial communication drive.

[0113] Optionally, after the target speed is sent, if no wind speed reply from the driver chip is received within a preset time period, it is determined that the serial communication driver circuit is abnormal.

[0114] Optionally, the method for determining the air conditioner fan drive type provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes: determining a first actual speed based on a first pulse width; determining a second actual speed based on a second pulse width; and determining that the air conditioner fan drive type is a pulse width modulation drive when the first actual speed, the second actual speed and the target speed are consistent.

[0115] In an embodiment of the present application, after receiving the second drive information, if the second drive information is fan feedback (second pulse width) and no serial communication data, the drive information (first pulse width) corresponding to the serial communication drive circuit stored in the memory is obtained, and the first actual speed is determined according to the first pulse width, and the second actual speed is determined according to the second pulse width, and the first actual speed, the second actual speed and the target speed are compared.
