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

[0031] Unless otherwise stated, the term "plurality" means two or more.

[0032] 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.

[0033] 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.

[0034] In the disclosed embodiment, after the air conditioner is installed in the area, the air conditioner can be used as a reference point to obtain the spatial horizontal distance between one or more of the left end, the right end and the front end of the panel of the air conditioner and the farthest point in the corresponding direction of the area, which can correspond to the left spatial horizontal distance, the right spatial horizontal distance and the front spatial horizontal distance respectively. After the model of the air conditioner is determined, the farthest horizontal distance of the air supply from the air conditioner in the corresponding direction can be obtained, which can correspond to the left blowing horizontal distance, the right blowing horizontal distance and the front blowing horizontal distance respectively. The current step number corresponding to the maximum position of the corresponding guide plate in the corresponding direction can also be obtained, which are the left current step number, the right current step number and the front current step number respectively. Therefore, the current step number can be adjusted according to the blowing horizontal distance and the spatial horizontal distance. The maximum adjustment steps of the guide plate corresponding to the set end are obtained, which can be the maximum adjustment steps of the left guide plate, the maximum adjustment steps of the right guide plate, and the maximum adjustment steps of the front guide plate, respectively. Thus, the maximum and minimum steps in the left and right and up and down directions in the automatic swing mode of the guide plate are determined. In this way, when the air conditioner runs the automatic swing mode of the guide plate, that is, when the air conditioner is in the automatic swing mode, the corresponding guide plate can be controlled to reciprocate according to the maximum adjustment steps of the left guide plate, the maximum adjustment steps of the right guide plate, and the maximum adjustment steps of the front guide plate, so that the air volume obtained in each corner of the room is roughly the same according to the installation position of the air conditioner and intelligent air supply, so as to achieve the balance of cold and heat in the room, and a more uniform room temperature, so that the heat exchange effect of the air conditioner is better and more energy-saving, and the user experience and the efficiency of the air conditioner are improved.

[0035] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an air conditioning control method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the process of air conditioning control includes:

[0036] Step 101: Taking the air conditioner as a reference point, obtain the spatial horizontal distance between the set end of the air conditioner and the farthest point in the corresponding direction of the area, and obtain the blowing horizontal distance corresponding to the air conditioner and the set end and the current number of steps of the guide plate, wherein the blowing horizontal distance is the farthest horizontal distance that the air supply of the air conditioner can reach when the air outlet guide plate of the air conditioner is facing the set end and is in the maximum position.

[0037] After the air conditioner is installed, the air conditioner can be used as a reference point, and the setting end may include: one or more of the right end, the left end, and the front end of the panel. In this way, if the setting end is the left end of the air conditioner, it is necessary to obtain the horizontal distance between the left end of the air conditioner and the leftmost side of the area, where the left is the left side of the air conditioner, and the obtained horizontal distance is the left horizontal distance. If the setting end is the right end of the air conditioner, it is necessary to obtain the horizontal distance between the right end of the air conditioner and the rightmost side of the area, where the right is the right side of the air conditioner, and the obtained horizontal distance is the right horizontal distance. If the setting end is the front end of the panel of the air conditioner, it is necessary to obtain the horizontal distance between the front end of the panel of the air conditioner and the front of the area, where the front is the front of the air conditioner, and the obtained horizontal distance is the front horizontal distance.

[0038] There are many ways to obtain the spatial horizontal distance between the air conditioner setting end and the farthest point in the corresponding direction of the area, and the spatial horizontal distance can be obtained through a configured distance detection device, such as an ultrasonic distance sensor. Alternatively, the air conditioner, as a smart device in a smart home, can obtain the spatial horizontal distance by communicating with other distance detection devices, or through the Internet of Things, etc.

[0039] In some embodiments, obtaining the spatial horizontal distance between the air conditioner setting end and the farthest point in the corresponding direction of the area includes: obtaining the spatial horizontal distance between the air conditioner setting end and the farthest point in the corresponding direction of the area through a distance detection device configured at the air conditioner setting end. For example, the left end, the right end, and the front end of the panel of the air conditioner indoor unit can be configured with an ultrasonic distance sensor, so that the left spatial horizontal distance L between the left end of the air conditioner and the leftmost point of the area can be obtained respectively. hl , the horizontal distance L between the right end of the air conditioner and the rightmost part of the area hr , the horizontal distance L between the air conditioning panel end and the front of the area hf .

[0040] In some embodiments, obtaining the spatial horizontal distance between the setting end of the air conditioner and the farthest point in the corresponding direction of the area includes: communicating with a distance detection device to determine the location information of the air conditioner in the area, and determining the spatial horizontal distance between the setting end of the air conditioner and the farthest point in the corresponding direction of the area based on the location information and the length or thickness of the air conditioner.

[0041] For example: communicate with the distance detection device to determine that the position information of the left end of the air conditioner in the room is (x1, x2), and the position information of the leftmost part of the room is (x3, x4), the position information of the rightmost part is (x5, x6), and the position information of the front part is (x7, x8). Therefore, the distance calculation can be performed based on (x1, x2) and (x3, x4) to determine the horizontal distance L of the left space. hl; Calculate the distance based on (x5, x6) and (x3, x4). Subtract the length of the air conditioner from the calculated distance to determine the horizontal distance L in the right space. hr ; And, according to (x1, x2), (x7, x8), distance calculation can be performed to determine the horizontal distance L of the front space hf .

[0042] After the model and performance of the air conditioner are determined, a maximum and minimum number of steps are set for the left and right guide plates and the upper and lower guide plates of the air conditioner, which correspond to the leftmost and rightmost positions of the left and right guide plates and the upper and lowermost positions of the upper and lower guide plates, respectively. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the air outlet guide plate of the air conditioner is facing the set end and is at the maximum position, the current number of steps corresponding to the corresponding guide plate can be obtained. For example: when the air outlet guide plate of the air conditioner is facing the left end and is at the maximum position, that is, the left and right guide plates are at the maximum position facing the left, corresponding to a set maximum number of steps, the current number of steps Z for the left can be obtained. l , and the air outlet guide plate of the air conditioner is facing the right end and is in the maximum position, that is, the left and right guide plates are in the maximum position facing the right, corresponding to a set minimum number of steps, which can be the current number of steps Z on the right r When the air outlet guide plate of the air conditioner is facing the front and is in the maximum position, that is, the upper and lower guide plates are in the maximum upward position, corresponding to a set maximum number of steps, which can be the current number of steps Z f .

[0043] The horizontal distance of the air blowing corresponding to the air conditioner and the set end is the farthest horizontal distance that the air supply of the air conditioner can reach when the air outlet guide plate of the air conditioner is facing the set end and is in the maximum position, and can also be determined according to the performance of the air conditioner model. In some embodiments, it can be obtained by averaging after multiple experiments, that is, obtaining the horizontal distance of the air blowing corresponding to the air conditioner and the current number of steps of the guide plate includes: when the air outlet guide plate of the air conditioner is facing the set end and is in the maximum position, recording the farthest horizontal distance that the air supply of the air conditioner can reach and the current number of steps of the guide plate; the average of two or more farthest horizontal distances is determined as the horizontal distance of the air blowing corresponding to the set end.

[0044] Each time an experiment is conducted, the farthest horizontal distance is recorded. Thus, the farthest horizontal distance recorded is averaged to obtain the horizontal distance of the blowing corresponding to the set end, which can be respectively the left blowing horizontal distance L and the right blowing horizontal distance L. cl , right blowing horizontal distance L cr , and the front blowing horizontal distance L cf .

[0045] Step 102: According to the horizontal distance of the air blowing and the horizontal distance of the space, the current number of steps is adjusted to obtain the maximum number of adjustment steps of the guide plate corresponding to the set end.

[0046] After obtaining the blowing horizontal distance, the spatial horizontal distance, and the current number of steps, the current number of steps can be adjusted according to the comparison result between the blowing horizontal distance and the spatial horizontal distance to obtain the maximum number of adjustment steps of the guide plate corresponding to the set end. In some embodiments, when the spatial horizontal distance is less than the blowing horizontal distance, the ratio of the spatial horizontal distance to the blowing level is obtained; the product of the current number of steps and the ratio is determined as the maximum number of adjustment steps of the guide plate corresponding to the set end.

[0047] Among them, the horizontal distance L in the left space hl Less than the horizontal distance L of left blowing cl When , it indicates that the air conditioner's wind can reach the farthest left side of the room. At this time, you can adjust the left and right guide plates of the air conditioner to the maximum left position, that is, adjust the corresponding number of steps, and the horizontal distance L of the space can be increased. hl Horizontal distance from the wind L cl The ratio of the current step number Z l The product of the maximum adjustment steps Z of the guide plate corresponding to the setting end is determined lt , that is, Z lt =(L hl / L cl )*Z l That is, the maximum position of the left and right guide plates facing left is no longer the preset position, and the corresponding step number is Z. lt .

[0048] Similarly, the horizontal distance L in the right space hr Less than the right blowing horizontal distance L cr When , it indicates that the air conditioner's wind can reach the farthest right side of the room. At this time, you can adjust the left and right guide plates of the air conditioner to the maximum right position, that is, adjust the corresponding right current step number Z r , the horizontal distance L hr Horizontal distance from the wind L cr The ratio of the current step number Z r The product of the maximum adjustment steps Z of the guide plate corresponding to the setting end is determined rt , that is, Z rt =(L hr / L cr )*Z r That is, the maximum right position of the left and right guide plates is no longer the preset position, and the corresponding step number is Z. rt .

[0049] Of course, the horizontal distance L hf Less than the front blowing horizontal distance L cf When , it indicates that the air conditioner's wind energy can reach the farthest front of the room. At this time, you can adjust the air conditioner's left front guide plate to the maximum point forward, that is, adjust the corresponding front current step number Z f , the horizontal distance L hf Horizontal distance from the wind Lcf The ratio of the current step number Z f The product of the maximum adjustment steps Z of the guide plate corresponding to the setting end is determined ft , that is, Z ft =(L hf / L cf )*Z f That is, the maximum position of the left front guide plate facing forward is no longer the preset position, and the corresponding step number is Z ft .

[0050] In some embodiments, when the horizontal distance of the space is greater than or equal to the horizontal distance of the blowing, the current step number is determined as the maximum adjustment step number of the guide plate corresponding to the set end. If the horizontal distance of the space is greater than or equal to the horizontal distance of the blowing, it indicates that the blowing capacity of the air conditioner is limited, and the air conditioner can only be controlled according to the maximum step number of the air conditioner to control the guide plate.

[0051] Among them, the horizontal distance L in the left space hl Greater than or equal to the left blowing horizontal distance L cl When the air conditioner cannot reach the farthest left side of the room, the current step number Z can be set. l Determined as the maximum adjustment step Z of the guide plate corresponding to the set end lt , that is, Z lt =Z l .

[0052] Similarly, the horizontal distance L in the right space hr Greater than or equal to the right blowing horizontal distance L cr When the air conditioner is turned on, it indicates that the air cannot reach the farthest right side of the room. At this time, the current step number Z on the right side can be r Determined as the maximum adjustment step Z of the guide plate corresponding to the set end rt , that is, Z rt =Z r .

[0053] Of course, the horizontal distance L hf Greater than or equal to the front blowing horizontal distance L cf When the air conditioner cannot reach the farthest front of the room, the current step number Z can be f Determined as the maximum adjustment step Z of the guide plate corresponding to the set end ft , that is, Z ft =Z f .

[0054] Step 103: The corresponding guide plate of the air conditioner in the automatic swing mode operates according to the maximum adjustment steps of the guide plate.

[0055] After the maximum adjustment steps of the guide plate are determined, when the air conditioner is in the automatic swing mode, the corresponding guide plate of the air conditioner can be controlled to operate according to the maximum adjustment steps of the guide plate. That is, in the automatic swing mode, the left and right and upper and lower guide plates are controlled to reciprocate according to the maximum adjustment steps of the left guide plate, the maximum adjustment steps of the right guide plate, and the maximum adjustment steps of the front guide plate.

[0056] It can be seen that in the disclosed embodiment, the air conditioner can determine the maximum adjustment steps of the guide plate corresponding to the set end according to the installation position of the air conditioner and the size of the area where it is located, so as to adjust the rotation angle of the left and right and the upper and lower guide plates, and then control the amount of air blown forward, backward, left and right by the air conditioner in automatic swing mode, so that the air volume obtained in each corner of the room is roughly the same, achieving the balance of cold and heat in the room, a more uniform room temperature, better heat exchange effect of the air conditioner and more energy-saving, and improving the user experience and efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0057] The operation flow is collected into a specific embodiment below to illustrate the air conditioning control process provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

[0058] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, the air conditioner is located in the room, and the right end of the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the front end of the panel can be configured with ultrasonic distance sensors. Of course, the left end of the air conditioner is also configured with an ultrasonic distance sensor.

[0061] Step 302: The air conditioner obtains the horizontal distance of the air blowing corresponding to the air conditioner and the setting end and the current number of steps of the guide plate, which are the left horizontal distance L and the right horizontal distance L. cl , right blowing horizontal distance L cr , Front blowing horizontal distance L cf , and the current step number Z on the left l , right current step number Z r , current step number Z f .

[0062] Step 303: Determine L hl <L clIs it true? If yes, go to step 304, otherwise go to step 305

[0065] Step 306: Determine L hr <L cr Is it true? If so, go to step 307; otherwise, go to step 308.

[0066] Step 307: The air conditioner increases the horizontal distance L of the space hr Horizontal distance from the wind L cr The ratio of the current step number Z r The product of the maximum adjustment steps Z of the guide plate corresponding to the setting end is determined rt , that is, Z rt =(L hr / L cr )*Z r . Go to step 309.

[0067] Step 308: The air conditioner will change the current step number Z r Determined as the maximum adjustment step Z of the guide plate corresponding to the set end rt , that is, Z rt =Z r . Go to step 309.

[0068] Step 309: Determine L hf <L cf Is it true? If so, go to step 310; otherwise, go to step 311.

[0069] Step 310: The air conditioner increases the horizontal distance L of the space hf Horizontal distance from the wind L cf The ratio of the current step number Z f The product of the maximum adjustment steps Z of the guide plate corresponding to the setting end is determined ft , that is, Zft =(L hf / L cf )*Z f . Go to step 312.

[0070] Step 311: The air conditioner sets the current step number Z f Determined as the maximum adjustment step Z of the guide plate corresponding to the set end ft , that is, Z ft =Z f . Go to step 312.

[0071] There is no limitation on the sequence of steps 303-305, steps 306-308, and steps 309-311, and these three steps can also be run in parallel.

[0072] Step 312: Determine whether the air conditioner is in the automatic swing mode. If yes, execute step 313; otherwise, return to step 312.

[0073] Step 313: The air conditioner controls the corresponding guide plate to reciprocate according to the maximum adjustment steps of the left guide plate, the maximum adjustment steps of the right guide plate, and the maximum adjustment steps of the front guide plate.

[0074] It can be seen that in this embodiment, the air conditioner can determine the maximum adjustment steps of the guide plate corresponding to the set end according to the installation position of the air conditioner and the size of the area where it is located, so as to adjust the rotation angle of the left and right and the upper and lower guide plates, and then control the air volume blown forward, backward, left and right by the air conditioner in automatic swing mode, so that the air volume obtained in each corner of the room is roughly the same, achieving the balance of cold and heat in the room, a more uniform room temperature, better heat exchange effect of the air conditioner and more energy-saving, and improving the user experience and efficiency of the air conditioner.
