[0031] In some technical solutions, the first port of the flow guide assembly is located at the top of the body, and the extension direction of the flow guide assembly is consistent with the height direction of the humidifier.

[0032] In the technical solution, the first port is arranged at the top of the body, and the extension direction of the flow guide assembly is consistent with the height direction of the humidifier, that is, the flow guide assembly can be extended and retracted along the height direction of the humidifier, so that the height of the steam output by the humidifier can be adjusted, and the humidity of the breathing area of the user can be adjusted accordingly.

[0039] In the technical scheme, in the case that the flow guide assembly is in the target telescopic state, the distance value between the first port and the second port is located in the preset distance range, that is, the humidifier can adjust the humidity of the area where the humidity needs to be adjusted at this time.

[0040] It should be noted that the telescopic state of the flow guide assembly can be manually adjusted by the user, or automatically adjusted by the humidifier through the driving assembly.

[0041] In the technical scheme, the first humidity value is the ambient humidity value at the second port collected by the humidity sensor arranged at the second port of the flow guide assembly. The humidifier can control the operation of the steam generation assembly based on the ambient humidity value at the second port of the flow guide assembly, so that the operation power of the steam generation assembly is controlled based on the ambient humidity value of the area during the process that the humidifier adjusts the humidity of the area where the second port is located, and the accuracy of the humidity adjustment of the area is improved.

[0043] In the technical solution of the application, by arranging the telescopic flow guide assembly in the humidifier, the environmental humidity value at the second port of the flow guide assembly in the target telescopic state is obtained, and the steam generation assembly is controlled based on the environmental humidity value, so that the area requiring humidity adjustment is subjected to humidification treatment, the matching between the steam output to the area and the environmental humidity of the area is improved, the humidifier can adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user in the environment, and the comfort of the user using the humidifier is improved.

[0044] In some technical solutions, the first port is located at the top of the body of the humidifier, and the humidifier comprises a first sensor configured to collect a first height value of the target object.

[0045] The preset distance range between the first port and the second port of the flow guide assembly is obtained, including:

[0046] The first height value collected by the first sensor is obtained.

[0047] The height difference between the first height value and a second height value is determined, and the second height value is the height value of the body of the humidifier.

[0048] According to the height difference, the preset distance range is determined.

[0049] In this technical solution, the first sensor can collect the first height value of the target object when the first sensor is arranged in the humidifier, and the preset distance range can be determined by comparing the first height value with the second height value.

[0050] In this technical solution, the first port is arranged at the top of the body, and the telescopic direction of the flow guide assembly is consistent with the height direction of the humidifier, that is, the flow guide assembly can be telescoped in the height direction of the humidifier, so that the height of the steam output by the humidifier can be adjusted, and the humidity of the breathing area of the user can be adjusted accordingly. The second height value is the height value of the humidifier body pre-stored in the humidifier, and the second height value can be regarded as the distance from the first port to the bottom of the humidifier body.

According to the height difference, the corresponding preset height range can be set.

[0052] In the technical solution of the application, by arranging the first sensor in the humidifier, the corresponding preset distance range can be determined according to the first height of the target object collected by the first sensor, and the accuracy of controlling the telescopic flow guide assembly to be extended or shortened is further improved.

[0053] In some embodiments, the humidifier further comprises a driving assembly configured to drive the humidifier to extend or shorten.

[0054] In the case where the flow guide assembly is extended or retracted to the target extension state, before the first humidity value collected by the first sensor is obtained, the method further comprises:

[0055] The driving assembly is controlled to drive the flow guide assembly to extend or retract to the target extension state, so that the distance between the first port and the second port of the flow guide assembly is within the preset distance range.

[0056] In this embodiment, the humidifier further comprises a driving assembly configured to drive the flow guide assembly to extend or retract, and the output end of the driving assembly is connected to the flow guide assembly. When the driving assembly is running, the flow guide assembly can be extended or retracted.

[0057] In this embodiment, when the driving assembly drives the flow guide assembly to extend or retract to the target extension state, it is determined that the second port of the flow guide assembly is located in the area where humidity adjustment is required. At this time, the distance between the second port and the first port is within the preset distance range.

[0058] In this embodiment, the humidifier further comprises a driving assembly configured to drive the flow guide assembly to extend or retract, and the output end of the driving assembly is connected to the flow guide assembly. When the driving assembly is running, the flow guide assembly can be extended or retracted.

[0059] In some embodiments, the method further comprises adjusting the operating power of the steam generating assembly according to the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, including:

[0060] Based on the first humidity value being less than the preset humidity value, the operating power of the steam generating assembly is increased until the first humidity value reaches the preset humidity value.

[0061] Based on the first humidity value being greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the operating power of the steam generating assembly is reduced so that the first humidity value is within the preset humidity range, and the preset humidity range is a range determined according to the preset humidity value.

[0062] In this embodiment, when the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, it is determined that the environmental humidity value at the second port does not reach the preset humidity value. At this time, the humidifier needs to operate at a higher power to increase the environmental humidity. Therefore, the operating power of the steam generating assembly is increased at this time to improve the efficiency of the humidifier in increasing the environmental humidity, until the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value.

[0063] In the technical solution, in the case that the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, it is determined that the ambient humidity at the second port reaches the preset humidity, at this time, the first humidity value needs to be maintained at the current level, therefore, the current operating parameter of the steam generation assembly is controlled to be reduced, so that the first humidity value is within the preset humidity range, to maintain the current ambient humidity value.

[0064] It should be noted that the preset humidity range is a range value obtained by adding or subtracting a threshold value from the preset humidity value.

[0065] In the technical solution of the present application, in the case that the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is controlled to be increased, so that the ambient humidity value is quickly increased to the preset humidity value, improving the humidity adjustment efficiency of the humidifier. In the case that the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is controlled to be reduced, so that the first humidity value is maintained at the current humidity level. And the operating power of the steam generation assembly is continuously adjusted based on the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, which can further improve the real-time adjustment and improve the heating efficiency of the ambient humidity while reducing the power consumption of the whole machine.

[0066] In some technical solutions, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is adjusted according to the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, including:

[0067] controlling the steam generation assembly to operate at a first power based on the first humidity value being less than the preset humidity value;

[0068] controlling the steam generation assembly to operate at a second power based on the first humidity value being greater than or equal to the preset humidity value;

[0069] wherein the first power is greater than the second power.

[0070] In the technical solution, in the case that the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, it is determined that the difference between the current ambient humidity value and the preset humidity value is large, at this time, the humidifier needs to humidify the ambient humidity at a high efficiency, therefore, the operating power is set to the large first power to improve the efficiency of the steam generation assembly outputting steam.

[0071] In the technical solution, in the case that the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, it is determined that the difference between the current ambient humidity value and the preset humidity value is small, at this time, the humidifier maintains the current ambient humidity value, therefore, the operating power is set to the small second power.

[0072] In the technical solution, when the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, the steam generation assembly is controlled to operate at a first power, so that the environmental humidity value is rapidly increased to the preset humidity value, and the humidification efficiency of the humidifier is improved. When the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the steam generation assembly is controlled to operate at a second power, so that the environmental humidity value can be maintained at the current humidity level, and the power consumption of the humidifier is reduced. The control accuracy is improved based on the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, and the timeliness of adjusting the operating power of the steam generation assembly is ensured.

[0073] In some technical solutions, the first power is 90% to 100% of the rated power, and the second power is 10% to 50% of the rated power.

[0074] In the technical solution, the first power is set to be greater than or equal to 90% of the rated power and less than or equal to 100% of the rated power, so that the steam generation assembly can operate at a high power, the humidification efficiency of the air is improved, and the rated power of the steam generation assembly is not exceeded, avoiding the failure of the steam generation assembly caused by overrunning.

[0075] In the embodiment, the second power is set to be greater than or equal to 10% of the rated power and less than or equal to 50% of the rated power, so that the steam generation assembly can operate at a low power, the power consumption caused by the steam generation assembly is reduced, and the steam generation assembly is not completely turned off, avoiding the rapid decrease of the environmental humidity.

[0076] In the embodiment, the first power and the second power are set based on the rated power, so that when the steam generation assembly operates at the first power, the humidification efficiency of the air is improved, and the rated power of the steam generation assembly is not exceeded, and when the steam generation assembly operates at the second power, the steam generation assembly is not completely turned off, avoiding the rapid decrease of the environmental humidity.

[0105] In this embodiment, the humidifier 100 comprises a body 110, a steam generating assembly 120 and a flow guide assembly 130. The body 110 has a cavity 112 for accommodating the steam generating assembly 120, which is capable of generating steam. The flow guide assembly 130 comprises a first port 132 and a second port 134.

[0115] It should be noted that the humidifier 100 further comprises a water storage bin which is detachably arranged in the accommodating cavity of the body 110 and connected with the steam generation assembly 120. The steam generation assembly 120 can convert the liquid in the water storage bin into water vapor for output.

[0116] In this embodiment, the second port 134 of the flow guide assembly 130 is telescoped to a height corresponding to the user's breathing area, so that the flow guide assembly 130 can transmit the water vapor output by the steam generation assembly 120 to the user's breathing area for humidification, thereby improving the user's comfort.

[0117] In the embodiments of the present application, the telescopic flow guide assembly 130 is arranged on the humidifier 100. When the humidifier 100 is in humidification operation, the flow guide assembly 130 can be telescoped to move the second port 134 of the flow guide assembly 130 to a suitable position for humidification of the position with the required humidity, so that the humidifier 100 can adjust the humidity of the user's breathing area in the environment, thereby improving the user's comfort in using the humidifier 100.

[0118] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further comprises a driving assembly 140 arranged on the body 110 and connected with the flow guide assembly 130. The driving assembly 140 is used to drive the flow guide assembly 130 to extend or shorten.

[0119] In this embodiment, the humidifier 100 further comprises the driving assembly 140 for driving the flow guide assembly 130 to extend or shorten. The output end of the driving assembly 140 is connected with the flow guide assembly 130. When the driving assembly 140 operates, the flow guide assembly 130 can be driven to extend or shorten.

[0120] For example, the flow guide assembly 130 is a telescopic hose, and the driving assembly 140 can be a push rod motor. The telescopic output end of the push rod motor is connected with the outer wall of the telescopic hose. When the push rod motor is powered on, the telescopic hose can be driven to extend or shorten.

[0121] Exemplarily, the flow guide assembly 130 comprises a plurality of sleeve pipes, and the driving assembly 140 can be a small cylinder. The telescopic end of the small cylinder is connected with the sleeve pipe near the second port 134 of the flow guide assembly 130, and the telescopic movement of the small cylinder drives the sleeve pipe to move telescopically.

[0122] In the embodiment, the humidifier 100 is provided with the driving assembly 140 capable of driving the flow guide assembly 130 to move telescopically, and the driving assembly 140 is controlled to drive the flow guide assembly 130 to lengthen or shorten, so that the humidifier 100 can automatically adjust the telescopic length of the flow guide assembly 130.

[0123] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further comprises a controller 150 connected with the driving assembly 140, and the controller 150 is configured to control the driving assembly 140 to work according to a preset distance range, wherein the preset distance range is a range in which the distance between the first port 132 and the second port 134 falls.

[0124] In the embodiment, the humidifier 100 is further provided with the controller 150, which can obtain the preset distance range between the first port 132 and the second port 134, and control the driving assembly 140 to drive the flow guide assembly 130 to lengthen or shorten, so that the distance between the first port 132 and the second port 134 falls within the preset distance range.

[0125] Exemplarily, the preset distance range is associated with the height value of the target object, for example, the target object is a user's body, the height value of the target object is the height of the user's body, and the preset distance range is set according to the height of the user's body. The second port 134 of the flow guide assembly 130 is controlled to move to the preset range by the driving assembly 140, so that the steam output by the flow guide assembly 130 can adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user in the environment.

[0126] Exemplarily, the preset distance range can be set by the user according to actual needs.

[0127] In the embodiment, the controller 150 can control the driving assembly 140 to work according to the obtained preset distance range, so as to drive the flow guide assembly 130 to lengthen or shorten, and the flow guide assembly 130 can transmit water vapor to the area where the humidity needs to be adjusted through the second port 134.

[0128] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further comprises a first sensor 160 and / or an operation panel.

[0129] The first sensor 160 is connected to the controller 150, and the first sensor 160 is configured to collect a first height value of the target object, so that the controller 150 can determine the preset distance range according to the first height value.

[0130] The operation panel 170 is connected to the controller 150, and the operation panel 170 is configured to input the preset distance range.

[0131] In this embodiment, the humidifier 100 further comprises at least one of the first sensor 160 and the operation panel 170. The preset distance range can be determined by the first sensor 160 or the operation panel 170.

[0132] In this embodiment, when the first sensor 160 is provided in the humidifier 100, the first sensor 160 can collect a first height value of the target object, and the first height value is transmitted to the controller 150, so that the controller 150 determines the preset distance range based on the first height value.

[0133] For example, the target object is a user's body, and the first height value is the height value of the user's body. The first sensor 160 can be an image sensor, which collects a human body image, and the controller 150 determines the height value of the user's body based on image recognition.

[0134] For example, the target object is a user's body, and the first height value is the height value of the user's body. The first sensor 160 can be a distance measuring radar, which collects distance values between different parts of the user's body and the distance measuring radar, and the controller 150 calculates the height value of the user's body based on the distance values collected by the distance measuring radar.

[0135] In this embodiment, when the operation panel 170 is provided in the humidifier 100, the user can input the preset distance range through the operation panel 170, so that the user can freely set the preset distance range according to actual needs.

[0136] For example, the operation panel 170 includes a "child" button and an "adult" button. When the user triggers the "child" button, the controller 150 can call the preset distance range corresponding to the child height range, and when the user triggers the "adult" button, the controller 150 can call the preset distance range corresponding to the adult height range. The user can also directly input the height value through the operation panel 170, and the controller 150 automatically generates the corresponding preset distance range based on the height value.

[0137] It should be noted that when the humidifier 100 includes the first sensor 160 and the operation panel 170, the user can choose the preset distance range determined by the humidifier 100 according to the first sensor 160, or set the corresponding preset distance range through the operation panel 170.

[0138] In the embodiment, the first sensor 160 is arranged in the humidifier 100, and any one of the operation panel 170 is arranged in the humidifier 100, so that the controller 150 can determine the corresponding preset distance range according to the first height value of the target object collected by the first sensor 160 and the operation input of the user on the operation panel 170, and further improve the accuracy of the control of the extension or shortening of the guide assembly 130.

[0139] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further includes a second sensor 180 connected to the controller 150, and the second sensor 180 is arranged at the second port 134 and used to collect a first humidity value, which is the environmental humidity value at the second port 134.

[0140] In the embodiment, the humidifier 100 further includes the second sensor 180, which is a humidity sensor and is arranged at the second port 134 of the guide assembly 130, so as to collect the environmental humidity value at the second port 134 of the guide assembly 130, and enable the humidifier 100 to control the operation of the steam generation assembly 120 based on the environmental humidity value at the second port 134 of the guide assembly 130.

[0141] In the embodiment, the guide assembly 130 is extended or shortened to adjust the position of the steam output by the guide assembly 130, i.e., to set the humidity adjustment area corresponding to the humidifier 100, and the second sensor 180 is arranged at the second port 134 of the guide assembly 130 to collect the environmental humidity of the humidity adjustment area, so as to improve the accuracy of the control of the steam generation assembly 120 based on the second humidity value, and thus improve the accuracy of the humidity adjustment of the humidity adjustment area.

[0142] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the first port 132 of the guide assembly 130 is located at the top of the body 110, and the extension direction of the guide assembly 130 is consistent with the height direction of the humidifier 100.

[0143] As shown in Figure 1 , the extension direction A of the guide assembly 130 is consistent with the height direction B of the humidifier 100.

[0144] In this embodiment, the first port 132 is arranged at the top of the body 110, and the telescopic direction of the flow guide assembly 130 is consistent with the height direction of the humidifier 100, that is, the flow guide assembly 130 can be telescoped along the height direction of the humidifier 100, so as to adjust the height of the steam output by the humidifier 100, and correspondingly adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user.

[0145] In an embodiment according to the present application, as shown in Figure 3 a control method of a humidifier is provided, which is applied to the humidifier in any of the above embodiments, and the control method of the humidifier comprises:

[0146] In step 302, a preset distance range between the first port and the second port of the flow guide assembly is obtained.

[0147] In step 304, a first humidity value is obtained when the flow guide assembly is telescoped to a target telescopic state, wherein the distance value between the first port and the second port of the flow guide assembly in the target telescopic state is within the preset distance range, and the first humidity value is the ambient humidity value at the second port.

[0148] In step 306, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is adjusted according to the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and a preset humidity value.

[0149] The control method of the humidifier provided by the present application is used to control the operation of the humidifier, so that the humidifier can adjust the operating power of the steam generation assembly according to the ambient humidity at the second port of the telescopic flow guide assembly, so that the amount of steam generated by the steam generation assembly is more matched with the ambient humidity at the second port, and the steam generated by the steam generation assembly is transmitted to the position where the humidity needs to be adjusted through the flow guide assembly, so that the humidifier can adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user in the environment, and the comfort of the user using the humidifier is improved.

[0150] In this embodiment, the preset distance range is the range in which the distance value between the first port and the second port is located, and in the case that the distance value between the first port and the second port is within the preset distance range, the flow guide assembly can transmit the steam generated by the steam generation assembly to the area where the humidity needs to be adjusted.

[0151] For example, the preset distance range is associated with the height value of the target object, for example: the target object is the human body of the user, the height value of the target object is the height of the human body of the user, and the preset distance range is set by the height of the human body of the user. The second port of the flow guide assembly is moved to the preset range by the control driving assembly, so that the steam output through the flow guide assembly can adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user in the environment.

[0152] Exemplarily, the preset distance range can be set by the user according to actual needs.

[0153] In this embodiment, when the flow guide assembly is in the target telescopic state, the distance value between the first port and the second port is within the preset distance range, that is, the humidifier can adjust the humidity of the area that needs to adjust the humidity at this time.

[0154] It should be noted that the telescopic state of the flow guide assembly can be manually adjusted by the user, or automatically adjusted by the humidifier through the driving assembly.

[0155] In this embodiment, the first humidity value is the environmental humidity value at the second port collected by the humidity sensor arranged at the second port of the flow guide assembly. The humidifier can control the operation of the steam generation assembly based on the environmental humidity value at the second port of the flow guide assembly, which realizes the control of the operation power of the steam generation assembly based on the environmental humidity value of the area during the process of adjusting the humidity of the area where the second port is located by the humidifier, and improves the accuracy of the humidity adjustment of the area.

[0156] In the embodiments of the present application, by lengthening or shortening the flow guide assembly, the position of the steam output by the flow guide assembly can be adjusted, that is, the humidity adjustment area corresponding to the humidifier is set, the environmental humidity value at the second port is obtained, and the operation power of the steam generation assembly is adjusted based on the environmental humidity value, so as to adjust the environmental humidity of the area where the second port is located, improve the accuracy of the control of the steam generation assembly, and thus improve the precision of the humidity adjustment of the humidity adjustment area.

[0157] In the embodiments of the present application, by arranging the telescopic flow guide assembly in the humidifier, the environmental humidity value at the second port of the flow guide assembly in the target telescopic state is obtained, and the steam generation assembly is controlled based on the environmental humidity value, which realizes the humidification treatment of the area that needs to adjust the humidity, improves the matching between the steam output to the area and the environmental humidity of the area, and enables the humidifier to adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user in the environment, thereby improving the comfort of the user using the humidifier.

[0158] In some embodiments, optionally, the first port is located at the top of the body of the humidifier, and the humidifier comprises a first sensor for collecting a first height value of the target object.

[0159] The preset distance range between the first port and the second port of the flow guide assembly is obtained, including:

[0160] The first height value collected by the first sensor is obtained.

[0161] Determine the height difference between the first height value and the second height value, where the second height value is the height of the humidifier body.

[0162] Determine the preset distance range based on the height difference.

[0163] In this embodiment, when a first sensor is installed in the humidifier, the first sensor can collect a first height value of the target object, and a preset distance range can be determined by comparing the first height value with a second height value.

[0164] For example, the target object is a user's human body, and the first height value is the user's height. The first sensor can be an image sensor, which acquires images of the human body, and the controller determines the user's height value based on image recognition.

[0165] For example, the target object is a user's human body, and the first height value is the user's height. The first sensor can be a ranging radar, which collects the distance values ​​between different parts of the user's human body and the ranging radar. The controller calculates the user's height value based on the distance values ​​collected by the ranging radar.

[0166] In this embodiment, the first port is located at the top of the main body, and the extension and retraction direction of the air guiding component is consistent with the height direction of the humidifier. That is, the air guiding component can extend and retract along the height direction of the humidifier, thereby adjusting the height of the steam output by the humidifier and adjusting the humidity of the user's breathing area accordingly. The second height value is a pre-existing height value of the humidifier body, which can be considered as the distance from the first port to the bottom of the humidifier body.

[0167] In this embodiment, when a first height value is obtained, the difference between the first height value and the second height value is calculated to obtain a height difference value, which is the distance from the first port to the area where the humidity needs to be adjusted. Based on this height difference value, a corresponding preset height range can be set.

[0168] like Figure 4 As shown, exemplarily, the second height value is H1, the first height value is H0, then the height difference is H0-H1, and the preset height range is H1+d1 to H1+d2, where d1≤H0-H1 and d2≥H0-H1. For example, the values ​​of d1 and d2 are both in the range of 5 cm to 10 cm.

[0169] In this embodiment of the application, by setting a first sensor in the humidifier, a corresponding preset distance range can be determined based on the first height of the target object collected by the first sensor, thereby further improving the accuracy of controlling the extension or shortening of the telescopic guide component.

[0170] In some embodiments, the humidifier further comprises a driving assembly for driving the humidifier to extend or shorten;

[0171] In the case where the flow guide assembly is extended or retracted to the target extension or retraction state, before the first humidity value collected by the first sensor is obtained, the method further comprises:

[0172] The driving assembly is controlled to drive the flow guide assembly to extend or retract to the target extension or retraction state, so that the distance between the first port and the second port of the flow guide assembly is within the preset distance range.

[0173] In this embodiment, the humidifier further comprises a driving assembly for driving the flow guide assembly to extend or retract, and the output end of the driving assembly is connected to the flow guide assembly. When the driving assembly is running, the flow guide assembly can be extended or retracted.

[0174] Exemplarily, the flow guide assembly is a telescopic hose, and the driving assembly can be a push rod motor. The telescopic output end of the push rod motor is connected to the outer wall of the telescopic hose. When the push rod motor is powered on, the telescopic hose can be driven to extend or retract.

[0175] Exemplarily, the flow guide assembly comprises a sleeve type flow guide pipe comprising a plurality of sleeves, and the driving assembly can be a small air cylinder. The telescopic end of the small air cylinder is connected to a sleeve near the second port of the flow guide assembly. When the small air cylinder extends or retracts, the sleeve type flow guide pipe is driven to extend or retract.

[0176] In this embodiment, when the driving assembly drives the flow guide assembly to extend or retract to the target extension or retraction state, it is determined that the second port of the flow guide assembly is located in the area where humidity adjustment is required. At this time, the distance between the second port and the first port is within the preset distance range.

[0177] In the embodiments of the present application, the humidifier is provided with a driving assembly for driving the flow guide assembly to extend or retract. By controlling the driving assembly to run, the flow guide assembly can be extended or retracted, so that the humidifier can automatically adjust the extension or retraction length of the flow guide assembly.

[0178] In some embodiments, the running power of the steam generating assembly is adjusted according to the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, including:

[0179] Based on the first humidity value being less than the preset humidity value, the running power of the steam generating assembly is increased until the first humidity value reaches the preset humidity value;

[0180] Based on the first humidity value being greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the running power of the steam generating assembly is reduced so that the first humidity value is within the preset humidity range, and the preset humidity range is a range determined according to the preset humidity value.

[0181] In this embodiment, when the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, it is determined that the ambient humidity value at the second port does not reach the preset humidity value, at this time, the humidifier needs to run at a higher power to increase the ambient humidity, therefore, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is increased at this time to improve the efficiency of the humidifier in increasing the ambient humidity, until the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value.

[0182] In this embodiment, when the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, it is determined that the ambient humidity at the second port reaches the preset humidity, at this time, the first humidity value needs to be maintained at the current level, therefore, the current operating parameter of the steam generation assembly is controlled to be reduced at this time, so that the first humidity value is within the preset humidity range, to maintain the current ambient humidity value.

[0183] It should be noted that the preset humidity range is a range value obtained by adding and subtracting a threshold value from the preset humidity value.

[0184] For example, the preset humidity value is R1, and the preset humidity range is R1-10% to R1+10%, for example, the preset humidity value is 50%, and the preset humidity range is 40% to 60%.

[0185] In the embodiments of the present application, when the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is controlled to be increased, so that the ambient humidity value is quickly increased to the preset humidity value, and the humidity adjustment efficiency of the humidifier is improved. When the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is controlled to be reduced, so that the first humidity value is maintained at the current humidity level. And the operating power of the steam generation assembly is continuously adjusted based on the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, which can further improve the real-time adjustment, improve the heating efficiency of the ambient humidity, and reduce the power consumption of the whole machine.

[0186] In some embodiments, optionally, the operating power of the steam generation assembly is adjusted according to the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, including:

[0187] controlling the steam generation assembly to operate at a first power based on the first humidity value being less than the preset humidity value;

[0188] controlling the steam generation assembly to operate at a second power based on the first humidity value being greater than or equal to the preset humidity value;

[0189] Wherein, the first power is greater than the second power.

[0190] In the embodiment, when the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, it is determined that the current environmental humidity value is far from the preset humidity value, at this time, the humidifier needs to humidify the environmental humidity at a high efficiency, and therefore the running power is set to the first power which is large to improve the efficiency of the steam generation assembly in outputting steam.

[0191] In the embodiment, when the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, it is determined that the current environmental humidity value is close to the preset humidity value, at this time, the humidifier maintains the current environmental humidity value, and therefore the running power is set to the second power which is small.

[0192] In the embodiment, when the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, the steam generation assembly is controlled to run at the first power which is large, so that the environmental humidity value is quickly increased to the preset humidity value, and the humidification efficiency of the humidifier is improved. When the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the steam generation assembly is controlled to run at the second power which is small, so that the environmental humidity value can be maintained at the current humidity level, and the power consumption of the humidifier is reduced. The control is based on the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, the accuracy of the control is improved, and the timeliness of adjusting the running power of the steam generation assembly is ensured.

[0193] In some embodiments, optionally, the first power is in a range of 90% to 100% of the rated power, and the second power is in a range of 10% to 50% of the rated power.

[0194] In the embodiment, by setting the first power in a range of greater than or equal to 90% of the rated power and less than or equal to 100% of the rated power, it can be ensured that the steam generation assembly runs at a high power, the humidification efficiency of the air is improved, and the rated power of the steam generation assembly is not exceeded, avoiding the steam generation assembly failure caused by overrunning.

[0195] In the embodiment, by setting the second power in a range of greater than or equal to 10% of the rated power and less than or equal to 50% of the rated power, it can be ensured that the steam generation assembly runs at a low power, the power consumption caused by the steam generation assembly is reduced, and the steam generation assembly is not completely turned off, avoiding the environmental humidity from decreasing too fast.

[0196] In the embodiment, the first power and the second power are set based on the rated power, which can improve the humidification efficiency of the air when the steam generation assembly runs at the first power, and the rated power of the steam generation assembly is not exceeded, and the steam generation assembly is not completely turned off when the steam generation assembly runs at the second power, avoiding the environmental humidity from decreasing too fast.

[0197] As Figure 5As shown, the control method of the humidifier comprises:

[0198] Step 502, starting the humidifier;

[0199] In the embodiment of the present application, the humidifier is controlled to start running, at this time, the steam generation assembly remains in standby state.

[0200] Step 504, setting a preset humidity value;

[0201] In the embodiment of the present application, the user can set the preset humidity value, or set the preset humidity value by setting the preset running mode.

[0202] Step 506, adjusting the height of the second port of the flow guide assembly;

[0203] In the embodiment of the present application, the user can manually adjust the height of the flow guide assembly, or the humidifier can automatically adjust the height of the flow guide assembly.

[0204] Step 508, the humidity sensor collects the environmental humidity value of the second port;

[0205] The environmental humidity value of the second port is the first humidity value in any of the above embodiments.

[0206] Step 510, judging whether the environmental humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, if the result is yes, executing step 512, if the result is no, executing step 514;

[0207] Step 512, high-power running;

[0208] Step 514, low-power running;

[0209] Step 516, keeping the environmental humidity value in the preset humidity range.

[0210] In the embodiment of the present application, by setting the telescopic flow guide assembly in the humidifier, the environmental humidity value at the second port of the flow guide assembly in the target telescopic state is obtained, and the steam generation assembly is controlled based on the environmental humidity value, which realizes the humidification treatment of the area requiring humidity adjustment, improves the matching of the steam output to the area and the environmental humidity of the area, enables the humidifier to adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user in the environment, and improves the comfort of the user using the humidifier.

The second port of the flow guide assembly is moved to the preset range by the control driving assembly, so that the steam output through the flow guide assembly can adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user in the environment.

[0218] For example, the preset distance range can be set by the user according to actual needs.

[0219] In the technical solution, when the flow guide assembly is in the target stretching state, the distance value between the first port and the second port is within the preset distance range, that is, the humidifier can adjust the humidity of the area where the humidity needs to be adjusted at this time.

[0220] It should be noted that the stretching state of the flow guide assembly can be manually adjusted by the user, or automatically adjusted by the humidifier through the driving assembly.

[0221] In the technical solution, the first humidity value is an environmental humidity value at the second port collected by the humidity sensor arranged at the second port of the flow guide assembly. The humidifier can control the operation of the steam generation assembly based on the environmental humidity value at the second port of the flow guide assembly, so that the operation power of the steam generation assembly is controlled based on the environmental humidity value of the area during the humidification of the humidifier to the area where the second port is located, and the accuracy of the humidification of the area is improved.

[0222] In the technical solution of the present application, the position of the steam output by the flow guide assembly is adjusted by elongating or shortening the flow guide assembly, that is, the humidity adjustment area corresponding to the humidifier is set, the environmental humidity value at the second port is obtained, and the operation power of the steam generation assembly is adjusted based on the environmental humidity value, so that the environmental humidity of the area where the second port is located is adjusted, the accuracy of the control of the steam generation assembly is improved, and the accuracy of the humidity adjustment of the humidity adjustment area is improved.

[0227] The determining module is configured to determine a height difference between the first height value and a second height value, and the second height value is a height value of the body of the humidifier.

[0228] The determining module is configured to determine a preset distance range according to the height difference.

[0229] In this embodiment, in the case that the first sensor is arranged in the humidifier, the first sensor can collect the first height value of the target object, and the preset distance range can be determined by comparing the first height value with the second height value.

[0230] In this embodiment, the first port is arranged at the top of the body, and the telescopic direction of the flow guide assembly is consistent with the height direction of the humidifier, that is, the flow guide assembly can be telescopically adjusted along the height direction of the humidifier, so as to adjust the height of the steam output by the humidifier and correspondingly adjust the humidity of the breathing area of the user. The second height value is the height value of the humidifier body pre-stored in the humidifier, and the second height value can be regarded as the distance from the first port to the bottom of the humidifier body.

[0231] In this embodiment, in the case where the first height value is obtained, the first height value and the second height value are subtracted to obtain a height difference value, which is the distance from the first port to the required humidity adjustment area. According to the height difference value, a corresponding preset height range can be set.

[0232] In the embodiments of the present application, by arranging the first sensor in the humidifier, the corresponding preset distance range can be determined according to the first height of the target object collected by the first sensor, and the accuracy of controlling the telescopic extension or shortening of the flow guide assembly is further improved.

[0233] In some embodiments, the humidifier further comprises a driving assembly for driving the humidifier to extend or shorten;

[0234] The control module is configured to control the driving assembly to drive the flow guide assembly to telescope to a target telescopic state, so that the distance between the first port and the second port of the flow guide assembly is within the preset distance range.

[0235] In this embodiment, the humidifier further comprises a driving assembly for driving the flow guide assembly to telescope, and the output end of the driving assembly is connected with the flow guide assembly. When the driving assembly operates, the flow guide assembly can be extended or shortened.

[0236] In this embodiment, when the driving assembly drives the flow guide assembly to telescope to the target telescopic state, it is determined that the second port of the flow guide assembly has been located in the area requiring humidity adjustment, and at this time, the distance between the second port and the first port is within the preset distance range.

[0237] In the embodiments of the present application, the humidifier is provided with a driving assembly capable of driving the flow guide assembly to telescope, and by controlling the operation of the driving assembly, the flow guide assembly can be extended or shortened, so that the humidifier can automatically adjust the telescopic length of the flow guide assembly.

[0238] In some embodiments, the adjustment module 604 is configured to increase the operating power of the steam generating assembly until the first humidity value reaches the preset humidity value, based on the first humidity value being less than the preset humidity value.

[0239] The adjusting module 604 is configured to, based on the first humidity value being greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, reduce the operation power of the steam generation assembly so that the first humidity value is within the preset humidity range, the preset humidity range being a range determined according to the preset humidity value.

[0240] In this embodiment, in the case where the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, it is determined that the ambient humidity value at the second port does not reach the preset humidity value, at this time, the humidifier needs to operate at a high power to increase the ambient humidity, therefore, the operation power of the steam generation assembly is increased at this time to improve the increasing efficiency of the humidifier on the ambient humidity until the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value.

[0241] In this embodiment, in the case where the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, it is determined that the ambient humidity at the second port reaches the preset humidity, at this time, the first humidity value needs to be maintained at the current level, therefore, the steam generation assembly is controlled to reduce the current operation parameter at this time so that the first humidity value is within the preset humidity range to maintain the current ambient humidity value.

[0242] It should be noted that the preset humidity range is a range value obtained by adding or subtracting a threshold value from the preset humidity value.

[0243] In the embodiments of the present application, in the case where the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, the operation power of the steam generation assembly is increased to quickly increase the ambient humidity value to the preset humidity value, thereby improving the humidity adjustment efficiency of the humidifier. In the case where the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the operation power of the steam generation assembly is reduced to maintain the first humidity value at the current humidity level. Furthermore, the operation power of the steam generation assembly is continuously adjusted based on the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, which further improves the real-time adjustment and reduces the power consumption of the whole machine while improving the increasing efficiency of the ambient humidity.

[0244] In some embodiments, the control module is configured to, based on the first humidity value being less than the preset humidity value, control the steam generation assembly to operate at a first power;

[0245] The control module is configured to, based on the first humidity value being greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, control the steam generation assembly to operate at a second power;

[0246] The first power is greater than the second power.

[0247] In this embodiment, in the case where the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, it is determined that the difference between the current ambient humidity value and the preset humidity value is large, at this time, the humidifier needs to humidify the ambient humidity at a high efficiency, therefore, the operation power is set to the first power which is large at this time to improve the efficiency of the steam generation assembly in outputting steam. In some embodiments, the control module is configured to, based on the first humidity value being greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, control the steam generation assembly to operate at a second power;

[0248] In this embodiment, in the case that the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, it is determined that the current environmental humidity value is less different from the preset humidity value, and the humidifier maintains the current environmental humidity value, so the running power is set to the second power which is smaller.

[0249] In the embodiments of the present application, in the case that the first humidity value is less than the preset humidity value, the steam generation assembly is controlled to run at the first power which is greater, so that the environmental humidity value is quickly increased to the preset humidity value, and the humidification efficiency of the humidifier is improved. In the case that the first humidity value is greater than or equal to the preset humidity value, the steam generation assembly is controlled to run at the second power which is smaller, so that the environmental humidity value can be maintained at the current humidity level, and the power consumption of the humidifier is reduced. The control is based on the numerical relationship between the first humidity value and the preset humidity value, so the control accuracy is improved, and the timeliness of adjusting the running power of the steam generation assembly is ensured.

[0250] In some embodiments, optionally, the first power is in the range of 90% to 100% of the rated power, and the second power is in the range of 10% to 50% of the rated power.

[0251] In this embodiment, by setting the first power in the range of greater than or equal to 90% of the rated power and less than or equal to 100% of the rated power, it can be ensured that the steam generation assembly runs at a high power, the humidification efficiency of the air is improved, and the rated power of the steam generation assembly is not exceeded, avoiding the steam generation assembly failure caused by overrunning.

[0252] In this embodiment, by setting the second power in the range of greater than or equal to 10% of the rated power and less than or equal to 50% of the rated power, it can be ensured that the steam generation assembly runs at a low power, the power consumption caused by the steam generation assembly is reduced, and the steam generation assembly is not completely turned off, avoiding the environmental humidity from decreasing too fast.

[0253] In the embodiments of the present application, the value range of the first power and the value range of the second power are set based on the rated power, which can improve the humidification efficiency of the air when the steam generation assembly runs at the first power, and the rated power of the steam generation assembly is not exceeded, and when the steam generation assembly runs at the second power, the steam generation assembly is not completely turned off, avoiding the environmental humidity from decreasing too fast.
