[0002] In low-temperature areas, the diversification of heating equipment is an important guarantee to ensure that residents stay warm during the winter. In addition to common air-conditioning systems, equipment such as baseboard electric heaters and furnaces are also widely used due to their flexibility and ease of use. These heating devices are usually designed to work independently to meet the heating needs in different scenarios. However, in actual applications, when the air-conditioning heat pump and other heating equipment are turned on separately at the same time, it often causes the indoor temperature to be too high and overheating to occur, which not only affects the comfort of the residents, but also may lead to energy waste and a significant increase in electricity consumption. In addition, as an efficient and energy-saving heating method, the heat pump often cannot fully exert its superior heating performance and comfort when used with other heating equipment, which reduces the overall energy efficiency ratio and makes it impossible to effectively coordinate the work of these heating equipment in the existing technology to avoid overheating.

[0023] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1A flow chart of a method for heating by linking an air conditioner with a third-party heat source provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The method for heating by linking an air conditioner with a third-party heat source in this embodiment can be applied to the control of indoor temperature. Specifically, the method of the present invention connects the air conditioner with the third-party heat source through a wire controller, and the wire controller controls the air conditioner with the third-party heat source for linkage control according to the method of the present invention. By adopting the method of the present invention, the user's heating needs can be met while improving comfort and saving electricity.

[0024] Figure 1 1 is a flow chart of a method for heating by linking an air conditioner with a third-party heat source provided by an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the method includes the following steps S110-S130.

[0025] S110. Determine the current heating mode according to the received control information.

[0026] In this embodiment, the control information is information that determines the current heating mode. Specifically, the wire controller is connected to the air conditioning equipment and the third-party heat source. As a key component, the wire controller is responsible for receiving user instructions and sending information to the air conditioning system and the third-party heat source, so as to achieve precise control of the air conditioning operation state. Among them, the wire controller receives the control information sent by the user, or determines the current heating mode according to the default control information preset by the user. For example, the user can turn on the heating by default and heat through the linkage heating mode. At this time, the control information may be 0, or the user sends the control information 1, and the current heating mode is judged as the single heating mode according to it. By judging the current heating mode according to the received control information, the heating mode of the air conditioner is intelligently controlled to meet the user's comfort needs and optimize energy efficiency.

[0027] S120: If the current heating mode is linkage heating, the air-conditioning device is controlled to perform linkage heating with the third-party heat source according to the obtained current indoor temperature and the set temperature.

[0028] In this embodiment, the linkage heating is a method of heating by the air conditioner and the third-party heat source together, wherein the third-party heat source is other heating equipment other than the air conditioner, such as floor heating, electric heater, etc. The set temperature is the expected indoor temperature. If the current heating mode is linkage heating, the air conditioner and the third-party heat source are controlled to perform linkage heating according to the current indoor temperature and the set temperature obtained. Specifically, according to the current indoor temperature and the actual heating demand, the heating output of the air conditioner and the third-party heat source is intelligently controlled. For example, when the difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature is large, it means that the actual heating demand is large, then the air conditioner and the third-party heat source are started at the same time to provide a stronger heating effect. When the indoor temperature is close to the set temperature, the heating output of the air conditioner is reduced, and the heating output of the third-party heat source is increased to keep the indoor temperature stable. By controlling the air conditioner and the third-party heat source to perform linkage heating according to the current indoor temperature and the set temperature, a more accurate and energy-saving heating effect is achieved. It can provide users with a more comfortable and efficient heating experience.

[0029] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the step S120 also includes steps S121-S124.

[0030] S121, if the current heating mode is linkage heating, controlling the air conditioning device to perform heating;

[0031] S122, evaluating the heating demand according to the temperature difference between the current indoor temperature and the set temperature, and determining the current heating demand;

[0032] S123, matching the corresponding third-party start time in the preset demand time relationship table according to the heating demand;

[0033] S124: When the air conditioning equipment heats to the third party start time, turn on the third party heat source.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the heating mode is combined heating, first control the air-conditioning device to heat, and evaluate the heating demand according to the temperature difference between the current indoor temperature and the set temperature to determine the current heating demand. For example, if the current indoor temperature is 15 °C and the desired temperature set by the user is 22 °C, then the temperature difference is 7 °C. According to this difference, the current heating demand is evaluated to be 7 °C. Match the corresponding third-party opening time in the preset demand-time relationship table according to the heating demand. Specifically, the preset demand-time relationship table is a pre-set relationship table between the heating demand and the third-party opening time, where the third-party opening time is the time to turn on the third-party heat source. Among them, the preset demand-time relationship table can be set according to specific temperature information, and no limitation is imposed on this. In this embodiment, the preset demand-time relationship table is: when T_inner_ring ≤ T_set - A1 °C, t = T1_min; when T_inner_ring ≤ T_set - A2 °C, t = T2_min; when T_inner_ring ≤ T_set - A3 °C, t = T3_min, where T_inner_ring is the current indoor temperature, T_set is the set temperature, A is the preset temperature difference. It can be understood that A represents the heating demand, t is the third-party opening time, and T is the specific third-party opening time. The specific values of A and T are not limited, as long as T3 > T2 > T1 when A1 < A2 < A3. It can be understood that if the heating demand is small, the third-party heat source can be turned on after a slightly longer time. On the contrary, the larger the temperature difference and the greater the demand, the faster the third-party heat source needs to be turned on to speed up heating. Or the third-party heat source opening time can be set manually according to user needs. After reaching the preset third-party heat source opening time point, start the third-party heat source to assist the air conditioner to complete the heating task and raise the indoor temperature to the set value faster. By matching the corresponding third-party opening time in the preset demand-time relationship table according to the heating demand and turning on the third-party heat source when the air-conditioning device heats up to the third-party opening time, while ensuring that the indoor temperature reaches the user-set value, energy consumption is minimized as much as possible.

[0035] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, after step S121, steps S125 - S126 are further included.

[0036] S125. Obtain the heating temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature;

[0037] S126. If the heating temperature difference is greater than the preset heating difference and the duration exceeds the preset duration, and the air-conditioning device stops heating, then turn on the third-party heat source for heating.

[0038] In this embodiment, the preset heating difference is the difference between the preset indoor temperature and the set temperature, wherein the specific value is not limited. When the air conditioning device turns on heating first, the heating temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature is obtained. This difference reflects the gap between the current temperature and the user's expected temperature, that is, the degree to which further heating is required to reach the user's set temperature. If the heating temperature difference is greater than the preset heating difference and the duration exceeds the preset duration, and the air conditioning device stops heating, it means that the air conditioning heating is limited at this time (such as reaching the maximum heating capacity, failure, etc.). In order to prevent the compressor from being abnormal, the air conditioning device will start the abnormal protection mechanism, that is, the air conditioning stops heating. However, if the user still needs the heating function, a third-party heat source is required for heating. Whether to turn on the third-party heat source for heating is determined by the heating temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature, so that the heating function is still provided in the case of compressor abnormal protection, ensuring that the user is in a comfortable environment.

[0039] S130: If the current heating mode is independent heating, the air-conditioning device or the third-party heat source is controlled to perform independent heating according to the preset equilibrium point temperature, the current indoor temperature and the acquired outdoor temperature.

[0040] In this embodiment, the separate heating is a method in which the air conditioner or the third-party device performs heating separately. The preset balance point temperature is a preset temperature value used as a reference for the heating intensity. The balance point temperature is usually set according to factors such as user preference, energy efficiency considerations, and system performance, and is not limited to this. The outdoor temperature is the outdoor ambient temperature obtained by a sensor or other means. According to the preset balance point temperature, the current indoor temperature, and the outdoor temperature, the working state of the air conditioner or the third-party heat source is intelligently controlled to achieve the best balance of the heating effect. For example, if the indoor temperature is 18°C ​​lower than the balance point temperature of 22°C, and the outdoor temperature is 0°C, it means that the heating demand is high. At this time, the air conditioner alone cannot meet the demand (due to the low outdoor temperature, the heating efficiency is reduced), and the third-party heat source will be started for rapid heating. By controlling the air conditioner or the third-party heat source to perform heating separately according to the preset balance point temperature, the current indoor temperature, and the obtained outdoor temperature, the working state of the heating device can be intelligently controlled according to the ambient temperature and user needs to achieve efficient and comfortable heating effects.

[0041] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the step S130 includes steps S131-S133.

[0042] S131, determining whether the current outdoor temperature is greater than the preset equilibrium point temperature;

[0043] S132, if the temperature is greater than the preset equilibrium point temperature, determining the current heating demand according to the indoor temperature and the set temperature;

[0044] S133: Control the air-conditioning equipment or the third-party heat source to perform heating independently according to the heating demand.

[0045] In this embodiment, the balance point temperature is a preset threshold value, which is used to distinguish whether the outdoor temperature is high or low, and is used to determine whether the current outdoor temperature is suitable for direct use of air conditioning equipment for heating. It is determined whether the current outdoor temperature is greater than the preset balance point temperature, that is, the two are compared. If it is greater than the preset balance point temperature, the current heating demand is determined according to the indoor temperature and the set temperature, that is, the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature is obtained. The greater the temperature difference, the greater the heating demand. According to the heating demand, the air conditioning equipment or the third-party heat source is controlled to heat alone. For example, if the outdoor temperature is too low, lower than the balance point temperature, and the heating demand is large, then directly using the air conditioning equipment for heating may be inefficient and may even damage the equipment. Therefore, when the outdoor temperature is lower than the balance point temperature, other heating methods (such as third-party heat sources) are selected. By controlling the air conditioning equipment or the third-party heat source to heat alone according to the heating demand, it is ensured that the user's heating demand is met while maximizing the use of energy.

[0046] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the step S132 includes steps S1321-S1322.

[0047] S1321, determining whether the temperature difference between the set temperature and the current indoor temperature is greater than a first preset temperature and less than a second preset temperature;

[0048] S1322: If yes, determine that the heating demand is a low heating demand; if higher than the second preset temperature, determine that the heating demand is a high heating demand.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature are air conditioning temperatures set according to user needs and information such as air conditioning equipment. It can be understood that the first preset temperature is less than the second preset temperature. Only in this case can the temperature difference be greater than the first preset temperature and less than the second preset temperature. Low heating demand is when the temperature difference is between the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature, indicating that the gap between the current indoor temperature and the user's expected temperature is not particularly large, so the heating demand is relatively low. High heating demand is when the temperature difference is greater than or equal to the second preset temperature, indicating that the gap between the current indoor temperature and the user's expected temperature is large, and a stronger heating capacity is required to quickly increase the indoor temperature, so the heating demand is high. For example, the set temperature is 25°C; the current indoor temperature is 20°C; the first preset temperature is 3°C; the second preset temperature is 7°C; calculate the temperature difference: temperature difference = set temperature - current indoor temperature = 25°C - 20°C = 5°C. The temperature difference of 5°C is greater than the first preset temperature of 3°C and less than the second preset temperature of 7°C, and the heating demand is determined to be a low heating demand. If the current indoor temperature is 18°C, the temperature difference will be 7°C, which is greater than or equal to the second preset temperature of 7°C, and the heating demand will be determined as a high heating demand. The heating demand is determined based on the temperature difference between the set temperature and the current indoor temperature, so as to intelligently adjust the heating strategy according to the current indoor temperature and the user's desired temperature, so as to achieve both energy saving and comfort.

[0050] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, the step S133 includes steps S1331-S1332.

[0051] S1331, if the heating demand is a low heating demand, controlling the air conditioning device to perform heating alone;

[0052] S1331. If the heating demand is a high heating demand, control the third-party heat source to perform heating alone.

[0053] In this embodiment, the low heating demand refers to the difference between the indoor temperature and the expected temperature set by the user is small. If the heating demand is a low heating demand, the air conditioner is controlled to heat alone, because the air conditioner usually has a high energy efficiency ratio and can meet the heating demand at low power while maintaining good comfort. High heating demand refers to the difference between the indoor temperature and the expected temperature set by the user is large. If the heating demand is a high heating demand, the third-party heat source is controlled to heat alone. The third-party heat source may refer to other heating equipment other than the air conditioner, such as electric heaters, floor heating systems, gas wall-mounted boilers, etc. These devices usually have higher heating power and can quickly increase the indoor temperature in a short time. Assume that the current indoor temperature is 20°C, and the difference between it and the expected temperature of 25°C set by the user is 5°C. Due to the small difference, it is judged that the heating demand is a low heating demand, so the air conditioner is controlled to heat alone. The air conditioner runs at a lower power and gradually raises the indoor temperature to 25°C. By determining the specific equipment for heating according to the heating demand, we can ensure that the best energy efficiency ratio and operating cost are achieved while meeting the heating demand.

[0054] In one embodiment, if Figure 7 As shown, step S131 includes steps S134-S135.

[0055] S134, if the current outdoor temperature is lower than the preset equilibrium point temperature, controlling the third heat source to heat alone;

[0056] S135. When the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature is greater than a preset third preset temperature, control the third heat source to stop heating.

[0057] In this embodiment, the outdoor temperature is compared with the preset equilibrium point temperature. If the current outdoor temperature is lower than the preset equilibrium point temperature, it means that the air conditioning equipment (heat pump) has a poor heating effect under this working condition and is likely to fail to reach the required heating amount. Therefore, under this condition, only the third heat source is controlled to heat. Specifically, when the outdoor temperature is lower than the preset equilibrium point temperature, the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature can be judged. If the difference between the two is greater than the preset temperature difference, the third heat source is used alone for heating. And the difference between the indoor temperature and the expected temperature set by the user is continuously monitored. If this difference exceeds the preset third preset temperature, it means that the indoor temperature is close enough to or reaches the temperature set by the user, and no further heating is required. The third heat source is controlled to stop heating to avoid excessive heating leading to energy waste or excessive indoor temperature. By controlling the third heat source to heat alone and stop heating, the user's heating needs can be met while improving comfort and saving electricity.
