[0002] In recent years, the odor in the car has been one of the most complained problems by drivers and passengers. The main source of odor in the car is the odor of the car air conditioner, and the odor complaints at the beginning of the car air conditioner startup account for the highest proportion. At present, there are three main sources of odor in the car air conditioner: 1) When the car air conditioner suddenly stops working, the odor in the car spreads with the evaporation of the condensed water on the evaporator and is retained inside the component. When the air conditioner is started again, the condensed water that has not dried on the evaporator will evaporate again to release the odor, and the odor retained inside the component will also be released again; 2) The odor emitted by the materials of the air conditioner box and internal components after standing for a long time will instantly release a high concentration of odor when the air conditioner is started; 3) The air duct of the air conditioner, especially the air duct of medium and large SUVs or MPVs, is longer. The duct material itself continues to emit odor and is retained in the duct. When the car air conditioner is started, it will instantly be released from the air outlet into the cabin, resulting in a decrease in the user's driving experience.

[0046] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures, are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0047] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected", "connected", and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0048] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include that the first and second features are in direct contact, or may include that the first and second features are not in direct contact but are in contact through another feature between them. Moreover, a first feature being "above", "above" and "above" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below", "below" and "below" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0049] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper", "lower", "right", etc., directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplification of operation, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0050] In the prior art, the air conditioner includes an air duct, an air outlet, a heater, a fan, a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator and a liquid storage dryer; a heater is provided in the air duct; a filter is provided between the heater and the air outlet; a condenser, a fan and an evaporator are provided in sequence in the air conditioner box along the air flow direction; a blower is fixed between the condenser and the evaporator; the condenser and the evaporator are connected to form a circulating cooling circuit through a copper pipe; a liquid storage dryer is also provided on the path from the condenser to the evaporator; a compressor is provided on the path from the evaporator to the condenser. The condensed water that has not dried up on the evaporator will evaporate again and release odor.

[0051] However, the existing solutions for removing odor from the evaporator can only remove the residual odor from the evaporator under certain working conditions. By judging the temperature of the evaporator when the air conditioner is started, and then controlling the mode damper to be closed or in the foot blowing mode, the odor from the evaporator is discharged from the air conditioner drain port or enters the car through the foot blowing damper. This method cannot eliminate the odors that are retained in the system by the components of the air conditioner cabinet and the air duct pipe materials themselves. Moreover, whether there is residual odor in the evaporator cannot be accurately judged by temperature alone, and there is still a risk that the odor will be blown out of the damper after the air conditioner is started and perceived by the customer. In addition, the above-mentioned deodorization method requires setting the air conditioner to start up in the initial mode with the damper closed, and the air conditioner air supply vents not blowing air or only the foot blowing vents blowing air, which causes users to misjudge whether the air conditioner's face blowing mode is in normal working condition.

[0052] In addition, the prior art also achieves a certain purification effect by installing an odor purification device at the air outlet of the air conditioner, but the odor purification device has a limited service life and is selective, and can only remove some odors. Installing an odor purification device in the air duct or at the air outlet of the air conditioner has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It can absorb some of the odors blown out of the air outlet, but the odor components are complex, and the filter element made of adsorption material is selective when removing odors. The odors of certain components cannot be absorbed and removed. Moreover, when the air volume is set at a high level, it is difficult for the device to achieve a sufficient adsorption effect in a short time, and the deodorization effect is limited.

[0053] To this end, an air conditioning control method is provided in an embodiment of the present invention, which can discharge odor from the temperature space to be adjusted as needed to avoid the air in the entire air conditioning box and the air duct entering the temperature space to be adjusted, causing a poor user experience.

[0054] like Figure 1 to Figure 2As shown, the air conditioning control method provided by the present invention is applied to an air conditioner, the air conditioner includes an air duct, a fan and an adjustment component, the adjustment component and the fan 1 are both arranged in the air duct 2, the air duct 2 has an air supply vent 21 and a bypass vent 22, the air supply vent 21 is used to communicate with the temperature space to be adjusted, and the bypass vent 22 is used to communicate with the outside atmosphere or the chamber separated by the temperature space to be adjusted, so that the odorous air can be discharged into the chamber formed by the vehicle body and the interior parts or the outside atmosphere. The adjustment component is arranged in the air duct 2 to distribute the air volume flowing to the air supply vent 21 and the bypass vent 22.

[0055] The chamber separated by the temperature space to be adjusted corresponding to the household air conditioner can be the chamber formed by the air conditioner shell, and the temperature space to be adjusted corresponding to the vehicle air conditioner is the body chamber, which is the chamber formed by the body and the interior parts. The temperature space to be adjusted can be indoors or in the cabin, that is, the temperature space to be adjusted corresponding to the household air conditioner is indoors, and the temperature space to be adjusted corresponding to the vehicle air conditioner is in the cabin.

[0056] The air conditioner provided by the present invention can, according to needs, enable the regulating component to distribute the air volume flowing to the air supply outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22 so as to discharge more odorous air in the air duct 2 out of the temperature space to be adjusted. The regulating component distributes the air volume flowing to the air supply outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22 to avoid a large amount of odorous air entering the temperature space to be adjusted and causing a poor user experience. At the same time, it can also ensure air outlet under the premise of discharging odorous air, thereby avoiding users from misjudging air conditioner failure.

[0057] Specifically, the adjustment component includes a damper component, which includes at least a bypass damper 3 and an air supply damper 4. The bypass damper 3 is movably connected to the air duct 2 for adjusting the opening of the bypass vent 22, and the air supply damper 4 is movably connected to the air duct 2 for adjusting the opening of the air supply vent 21.

[0058] In some embodiments, the air conditioner further includes an exhaust pipe 5, which connects the bypass vent 22 to the outside atmosphere. The exhaust pipe 5 can discharge the odorous air in the chamber formed by the vehicle body and the interior decoration to the atmosphere, thereby preventing the odorous air from overflowing from the gap of the interior decoration into the temperature space to be adjusted and affecting the air quality of the temperature space to be adjusted, and further improving the riding experience of the user.

[0059] The adjustment component also includes a motor, wherein the motor can be a stepper motor or a servo motor, preferably a servo motor. Specifically, the servo motor is arranged outside the air duct 2 to ensure the outflow of air volume.

[0060] In some other embodiments, the damper assembly can be replaced by a three-way valve, the inlet of the three-way valve is connected to the air inlet of the air conditioner, and the two outlets of the three-way valve are respectively connected to the air supply vent 21 and the bypass vent 22. Specifically, the three-way valve can be a three-way proportional regulating valve to adjust the opening of the air supply vent 21 and the bypass vent 22 according to actual needs.

[0061] Figure 3 This is an example of the positional relationship between the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 in the present embodiment. Of course, in other embodiments, the positional relationship between the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 after opening is not limited to this.

[0062] Figure 4 Flow chart of the air conditioning control method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the air conditioning control method can be executed by an air conditioning controller or a whole machine controller, such as Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0063] S101, receiving a power-on instruction, and obtaining the continuous shutdown time of the air conditioner before the power-on;

[0064] Among them, the power-on command is implemented by using a person to manually control the control panel of the air conditioner or issue a voice command. The continuous shutdown time is obtained according to the calibration test. For example, the continuous shutdown time can be 2h, 4h or 8h, etc., which is not specifically limited in this embodiment. Of course, the continuous shutdown time can also be limited according to the season. For example, the summer shutdown time and the spring and autumn continuous shutdown time are shorter than the winter continuous shutdown time, and the summer continuous shutdown time is shorter than the spring and autumn continuous shutdown time. Of course, the continuous shutdown time can also be determined according to the humidity of the environment.

[0065] S102, determining whether the continuous shutdown duration is greater than or equal to a preset duration;

[0066] S103. If the continuous shutdown time is greater than or equal to the preset time, start the fan 1 and control the air conditioner to operate in the deodorization mode within the preset time after the air conditioner is turned on. The operation in the deodorization mode includes controlling the regulating component to distribute the air volume flowing to the supply air outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22, so that the bypass air outlet 22 is at least partially opened and the supply air outlet 21 is at least partially closed.

[0067] The method provided in the embodiment of the present invention first obtains the continuous shutdown time of the air conditioner after startup, and then controls the air volume distributed by the adjustment component to the supply air outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22 according to the comparison result of the continuous shutdown time and the preset time. In this way, a large amount of odorous gas in the air duct 2 will not be discharged into the temperature space to be adjusted at the beginning of startup, which ensures the air conditioning usage experience of the user while preventing the supply air outlet 21 from having no air volume, avoiding misjudgment.

[0068] The step of determining whether the continuous shutdown duration is greater than or equal to the preset duration also includes:

[0069] S104: If the continuous off time is less than the preset continuous time, the air conditioner executes the target working mode.

[0070] If the continuous closing time is less than the preset continuous time, the amount of odorous gas in the air duct 2 is small or does not exist, and the deodorization mode may not be adopted. The target working mode includes a cooling working mode, a ventilation working mode, and a heating deodorization mode.

[0071] In some embodiments, the deodorization mode includes a strong deodorization mode and a heating deodorization mode. Before controlling the air conditioner to operate in the deodorization mode, it also includes determining the deodorization mode, that is, before controlling the regulating component to distribute the air volume flowing to the supply air outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22, it also includes determining the deodorization mode.

[0072] The air volume distributed by the regulating component is performed based on a determined deodorization mode.

[0073] In some embodiments, when the deodorization mode is the strong deodorization mode, the air volume distributed by the regulating component to the air supply vents 21 and the bypass vents 22 includes:

[0074] The bypass vents 22 are at least partially open, the air supply vents 21 are partially open, and the opening of the bypass vents 22 is greater than the opening of the air supply vents 21;

[0075] Among them, the bypass vents 22 can be fully opened or partially opened, and in the present embodiment, the bypass vents 22 are preferably fully opened, so that the opening of the bypass vents 22 is larger than the opening of the air supply vents 21, and the opening of the air supply vents 21 can be very small, as long as a small amount of air flows out of the air supply vents 21 to ensure that the user will not misjudge.

[0076] During the process of the air conditioner being turned on for the first preset time, the bypass vents 22 are gradually switched from being open to being completely closed, and the air supply vents 21 are gradually switched from being partially open to being fully open.

[0077] The cooling mode is usually performed in the hot summer. Usually, the temperature inside the car is higher than the temperature outside the car in this season. The actual air outlet temperature of the air supply vent 21 will be lower than the temperature inside the car. During the deodorization process, the air outlet temperature perceived by the user is lower than the temperature inside the car, which will not cause misjudgment. In the ventilation mode, the user only needs to feel that there is wind at the air supply vent 21, which will not cause misjudgment.

[0078] The first preset time is obtained according to a calibration test. For example, the first preset time may be 30s, 40s or 50s.

[0079] It should be noted that in order to realize the transition opening and closing of the air supply damper 4 and the bypass damper 3 to prevent the residual odor air from entering the temperature-adjusted space and causing discomfort to the user when the air supply damper 4 and the bypass damper 3 are closed, the opening of the air supply damper 4 and the bypass damper 3 is changed in real time from 0 to the first preset time, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the angles of both the supply air damper 4 and the bypass air damper 3 relative to the vertical direction are changed in real time.

[0080] Taking the servo motor driving the bypass damper 3 and the supply air damper 4 to adjust the air volume as an example, the bypass damper 3 is connected to the air duct 2 through the rotation of the servo motor, and is used to adjust the opening of the bypass vent 22. The supply air damper 4 is connected to the air duct 2 through the rotation of the servo motor, and is used to adjust the opening of the supply air vent 21. During the process from the air conditioner being turned on to the first preset time, the bypass damper 3 and the supply air damper 4 rotate at a uniform speed, which can ensure that the air blown out from the supply air vent 21 is output at a uniform speed, and avoid the residual odor gas in the supply air duct from instantly flowing into the temperature space to be adjusted, so as to provide the necessary time for the residual odor air to flow out of the bypass damper 3. In addition, the rotation angular velocity of the bypass damper 3 is the same as the rotation angular velocity of the supply air damper 4, so that synchronous rotation can be achieved.

[0081] Under normal conditions, the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are both in a closed state. When the air conditioner is turned on and the strong deodorization mode is executed, the bypass damper 3 is at least partially opened, and the air supply damper 4 is partially opened, and the opening degree of the bypass vent 22 is greater than the opening degree of the air supply vent 21. For example, Figure 1 As shown, the fan 1 is started and blows air, the bypass damper 3 changes from a horizontal state to a vertical state, the air supply damper 4 and the bypass damper 3 have a certain angle, the angle can be extremely small, and the specific angle value can be determined according to experimental calibration, and the air is discharged into the chamber formed by the vehicle body and the interior parts or the exhaust pipe 5 through the bypass damper 3 without entering the temperature space to be adjusted.

[0082] Within 30 seconds after the air conditioner is started, the bypass damper 3 gradually turns from vertical to horizontal, and the supply air damper 4 gradually turns from inclined to horizontal. Part of the air inside the air duct 2 is discharged into the chamber or exhaust pipe 5 separating the temperature space to be adjusted through the bypass damper 3, and part of the air passes through the supply air damper 4 and enters the temperature space to be adjusted through the supply air outlet 21.

[0083] 30 seconds after the air conditioner is started, the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are completely turned to a horizontal state. After all the air passes through the air supply damper 4, it enters the temperature space to be adjusted through the air supply vent 21, and the air conditioner works normally according to the target mode.

[0084] In summary, if the air conditioner is not in heating mode, it indicates that the ambient temperature may be high or normal room temperature. The higher the ambient temperature, the greater the odor volatilized in the air duct 2. Therefore, if the air conditioner is turned on to cooling mode, the ambient temperature is high, and the opening of the bypass vent 22 should be much larger than the opening of the air supply vent 21; if it is a fresh air mode that is neither heating nor cooling, the opening of the bypass vent 22 should be less than the opening of the air supply vent 21. Specifically, the opening of the air supply vent 21 can be set to one or three optimal values ​​through experimental testing.

[0085] Of course, in some other embodiments, when the deodorization mode is the strong deodorization mode, the air volume distributed by the regulating component to the air supply vents 21 and the bypass vents 22 includes:

[0086] The bypass vent 22 is fully opened, and the air supply vent 21 is fully closed, and this continues for a third preset time, which is less than the first preset time;

[0087] The specific value of the third preset time can be obtained according to a calibration test. For example, the third preset time is 5s, 8s, 10s or 12s.

[0088] During the process of the air conditioner operating from the third preset time to the first preset time, the bypass vents 22 are gradually switched from fully open to fully closed, and the air supply vents 21 are gradually switched from fully closed to fully open.

[0089] After most of the odorous air is discharged from the bypass vents 22, the air supply vents 21 are opened after the third preset time. This not only ensures that the odor of the air flowing out of the air supply vents 21 becomes smaller, but also prevents users from making misjudgments due to long-term lack of wind in the air supply vents 21.

[0090] In some embodiments, when the deodorization mode is the heating deodorization mode, the air volume distributed by the regulating component to the supply air outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22 includes:

[0091] The bypass vents 22 are at least partially open, and the air supply vents 21 are at least partially open;

[0092] Among them, the bypass vents 22 can be fully opened or partially opened, and the air supply vents 21 can be fully opened or partially opened. This step can ensure that the air supply vents 21 blow out a small amount of hot air after the fan 1 works, so that the user can confirm that the air conditioner is in the heating working mode. This can ensure that the user will not misjudge the air conditioner failure, and the small amount of hot air will not make the user smell an odor.

[0093] After the bypass vents 22 and the air supply vents 21 are both opened for the second preset time, the bypass vents 22 are closed and the air supply vents 21 are fully opened.

[0094] The second preset time is obtained according to a calibration test, and the second preset time may be 60s, 70s, 80s or 90s, etc. It should be noted that when the air conditioner is set at the front of the vehicle, it is a front air conditioner, and when it is set at the rear, it is a rear air conditioner. Since the air duct of the rear air conditioner is longer than that of the front air conditioner, the second preset time of the rear air conditioner when working is greater than the second preset time of the front air conditioner.

[0095] The bypass vents 22 and the air supply vents 21 are both opened for a second preset time, which can allow odorous air to be discharged while a small amount of hot air is blown out from the air supply vents 21 to ensure that the user can feel that the air conditioner is heating, thereby avoiding misjudgment of air conditioner malfunction.

[0096] In some embodiments, the heating working mode indicates that the ambient temperature is relatively low, and there will be no obvious odor in the air duct of the air conditioner at a relatively low temperature. Therefore, in order to ensure that the heating needs of the user are met first, when the fan 1 is turned on, the opening of the bypass vent 22 is smaller than the opening of the air supply vent 21, so that the user's temperature requirements can be met while removing odors, avoiding the user's feeling that the air conditioner heating effect is poor.

[0097] It should be noted that if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in normal state, the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are both in a closed state, the bypass damper 3 is in a horizontal state, and the air supply damper 4 is in a vertical state. When the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are both opened, the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are set at an angle, and the value range of the angle a is 0<a≤90°. That is, the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 can be fully opened, which can ensure that the odorous air is discharged and that air flows out from the air supply damper 4.

[0098] However, if the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are in a fully open state, the amount of odorous air flowing out of the air supply vent 21 increases, and users who are more sensitive to odors can smell it. For this reason, in some other embodiments, when the fan 1 is turned on, the opening of the bypass damper 3 is greater than the opening of the air supply damper 4. In this way, the amount of odorous air entering the bypass damper 3 is significantly greater than the amount of odorous air entering the air supply damper 4, and only a small amount of odorous air will enter the temperature space to be adjusted through the air supply damper 4. Even users who are more sensitive to odors will not smell it, thereby ensuring the user's air conditioning experience and avoiding the situation where the user thinks that the air conditioning heating effect is poor. After the openings of the two are maintained for a second preset time, the bypass damper 3 is closed and the air supply damper 4 is fully opened, which can ensure that all the hot air generated by the air conditioner flows out from the air supply vent 21 to meet the user's heating needs.

[0099] For example, when the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are both open, Figure 3As shown, the bypass damper 3 is arranged roughly parallel to the air supply damper 4. However, it should be noted that while ensuring that the bypass damper 3 is roughly parallel to the air supply damper 4, the opening of the bypass damper 3 should be greater than the opening of the air supply damper 4, so as to prevent more odorous air from entering and flowing out from the air supply vent 21. For example, the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are both installed in the air supply duct, the bypass damper 3 is located at the bottom of the air supply duct, and the air supply damper 4 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the air supply duct. When the bypass damper 3 and the air supply damper 4 are both opened, the opening angle of the air supply damper 4 is 20°, and the opening angle of the bypass damper 3 is 70°.

[0100] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the fan 1 starts and blows air, the bypass damper 3 turns from horizontal to 70°, and the supply air damper 4 turns from vertical to 20°. Most of the air passes through the bypass damper 3 and is discharged into the chamber or exhaust pipe 5 formed by the vehicle body and the interior parts, and a small part of the air passes through the supply air damper 4 and enters the temperature space to be adjusted through the supply air outlet 21. After maintaining the above state for 60S, the bypass damper 3 and the supply air damper 4 are all turned to the horizontal state, and the air passes through the supply air damper 4 and enters the cabin through the supply air outlet 21, and the air conditioner works in the heating working mode.

[0101] In some embodiments, determining the deodorization mode comprises the steps of:

[0102] Obtain target temperature and air conditioning target working mode;

[0103] The target temperature is a target air outlet temperature or a target temperature of a heat generating component (such as a heater).

[0104] Determine whether the target operating mode of the air conditioner is a heating operating mode and the target temperature is greater than or equal to a preset temperature;

[0105] If the target operating mode of the air conditioner is the heating operating mode and the target temperature is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, the deodorization mode is the heating deodorization mode;

[0106] Among them, when the target temperature is the target air outlet temperature, the preset temperature value is 35°C, 40°C, 45°C, 50°C, 55°C or 60°C, etc., and 50°C is preferred in this embodiment.

[0107] If the target operating mode of the air conditioner is the heating operating mode and the target temperature is less than or equal to the preset temperature, or the target operating mode of the air conditioner is the cooling operating mode or the ventilation operating mode, the deodorization mode is the strong deodorization mode.

[0108] Among them, confirming the deodorization mode according to the target temperature can avoid the problem of poor driving experience caused by the air conditioner only executing one deodorization mode during the deodorization process.

[0109] It should be noted that there is no specific limitation on the order of obtaining the specific air conditioning target mode and judging the target temperature and the preset temperature, and it can be done as needed. In winter, if the air supply damper 4 is not opened to supply air within a period of time after the machine is turned on, it will cause the user to misjudge the air conditioning failure. The opening degrees of the air supply damper 4 and the bypass damper 3 are different according to the different target working modes of the air conditioning and the target temperatures. This can prevent the odorous air from being discharged into the temperature space to be adjusted and will not cause the misjudgment of air conditioning failure. When the target working mode of the air conditioning is the ventilation mode or the cooling mode, the air conditioner executes the strong deodorization mode, and when the target working mode of the air conditioning is the heating working mode and the target temperature is lower than the preset temperature, the air conditioner executes the strong deodorization mode.

[0110] like Figure 5 As shown, the method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0111] S201, receiving a power-on instruction, and obtaining the continuous shutdown time of the air conditioner before the power-on;

[0112] S202, determine whether the continuous shutdown time is greater than or equal to the preset time, if not, execute S203, if yes, execute S204;

[0113] S203, controlling the air conditioner to execute a target working mode;

[0114] S204, obtaining a target operating mode and a target temperature of the air conditioner;

[0115] S205, determining whether the target operating mode of the air conditioner is the heating operating mode and the target temperature is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, if yes, executing S206, if not, executing S208;

[0116] S206, the bypass vent 22 is at least partially opened, the air supply vent 21 is partially opened, and the opening degree of the bypass vent 22 is smaller than the opening degree of the air supply vent 21;

[0117] S207, during the process of the air conditioner being turned on for the first preset time, the bypass vent 22 is gradually switched from open to fully closed, and the air supply vent 21 is gradually switched from partially open to fully open, and S203 is executed;

[0118] S208, the bypass vent 22 is at least partially opened, the air supply vent 21 is at least partially opened, and the opening degree of the bypass vent 22 is greater than the opening degree of the air supply vent 21;

[0119] S209: After the bypass vents 22 and the air supply vents 21 are both opened for the second preset time, the bypass vents 22 are closed, the air supply vents 21 are fully opened, and S203 is executed.

[0120] Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an air conditioning control device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6As shown, the air conditioning control device 300 includes a receiving and obtaining module 301, a judging module 302 and an executing module 303, wherein: the receiving and obtaining module 301 is used to receive a power-on instruction and obtain the continuous shutdown time of the air conditioner before the power-on; the judging module 302 is used to judge whether the continuous shutdown time is greater than or equal to a preset time; the executing module 303 is used to start the fan 1 when the continuous shutdown time is greater than or equal to the preset time, and control the air conditioner to operate in a deodorization mode within a preset time after the power-on, and the operation in the deodorization mode includes controlling the regulating component to distribute the air volume flowing to the supply air outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22, so that the bypass air outlet 22 is at least partially opened and the supply air outlet 21 is at least partially closed.

[0121] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the determination module 302 is further configured to determine that the target operating mode of the air conditioner is a heating operating mode and the target temperature is greater than or equal to a preset temperature.

[0122] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the device further comprises a timing module, and the timing module is used to record the continuous shutdown time after the air conditioner is shut down.

[0123] The air conditioning control device proposed in the present invention first obtains the continuous shutdown time of the air conditioner after it is turned on, and then controls the operation of the adjustment component to distribute the air volume flowing to the supply air outlet 21 and the bypass air outlet 22 according to the comparison result of the continuous shutdown time and the preset time. In this way, a large amount of odorous gas in the air conditioning box and the air duct will not be discharged into the temperature space to be adjusted at the beginning of startup, thereby ensuring the user's air conditioning experience.
