[0066] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0067] In the description of the present disclosure, the terms used, such as "first", "second", etc., are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily understood as a specific order or sequence. In addition, in the description with reference to the accompanying drawings, the same symbols in different drawings represent the same elements unless otherwise stated.

[0068] Although operations or steps are described in a specific order in the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, it should not be understood that it is required to perform these operations or steps in the specific order shown or in a serial order, or to perform all the operations or steps shown to obtain the desired results. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, these operations or steps can be performed in series; these operations or steps can also be performed in parallel; or some of these operations or steps can be performed.

[0069] In order to optimize the condensation of the air conditioner, the related technology introduces a humidity sensor, that is, a humidity sensor is added to the return air outlet of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. When the temperature is running, the humidity of the air is detected by the humidity sensor, and then the evaporator temperature of the indoor unit of the air conditioner is adjusted. In this way, the problem of condensation in the air duct of the indoor air conditioner can be avoided no matter how the air conditioner is operated. Here, the evaporator temperature is mainly reduced by reducing the operating frequency of the compressor to reduce the cooling capacity of the air conditioner, so as to avoid condensation caused by excessive capacity of the air conditioner. However, since the addition of a humidity sensor requires corresponding electronic control design, and the sensor needs to be used to collect parameters, the corresponding hardware cost increases, and then the cost of the air conditioner increases.

[0070] In addition, from the above introduction, we know that the related technology reduces the evaporator temperature mainly by reducing the operating frequency of the compressor to reduce the cooling capacity of the air conditioner. However, this method abandons the cooling effect of the air conditioner in order to ensure the condensation effect, which will lead to a reduction in the cooling effect of the air conditioner, thereby affecting the user experience.

[0071] Figure 1 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps.

[0072] In step S110, the condensed water production of the air conditioner within a preset time period is obtained.

[0073] As an optional method, the embodiment of the present disclosure can obtain the condensation water production of the air conditioner within a preset time period. The preset time period can be a preset time after the air conditioner unit is turned on for refrigeration operation. In other words, after the air conditioner is turned on and the cooling mode is turned on, the embodiment of the present disclosure can obtain the condensation water production of the air conditioner within the time period. For example, within 30 minutes after the air conditioner is turned on, the air conditioner can obtain the condensation water production Q.

[0074] In step S120, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state based on the condensed water output, and the outdoor ambient temperature corresponding to the air conditioner is obtained.

[0075] As an optional method, after obtaining the condensed water production, the embodiment of the present disclosure can determine whether the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state. If it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state, the outdoor ambient temperature corresponding to the air conditioner is obtained. Specifically, it is determined whether the condensed water production exceeds the preset water production. If it is determined that the condensed water production exceeds the preset water production, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state. The preset water production can be pre-stored in the memory of the air conditioner, which can be obtained by the developer through multiple tests before the air conditioner leaves the factory.

[0076] Optionally, the embodiment of the present disclosure can also obtain the condensate generation speed according to the condensate output, and on this basis, determine whether the condensate generation speed exceeds the preset speed. If it is determined that the condensate generation speed exceeds the preset speed, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state. The preset speed can be any one of 1.1L / h to 1.5L / h.

[0077] As a specific implementation, the disclosed embodiment can obtain the working time of the air conditioner, and on this basis, obtain the preset speed corresponding to the working time, and then determine whether the condensation water generation speed exceeds the preset speed. If it is determined that the condensation water generation speed exceeds the preset speed, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state.

[0078] As another specific implementation, the disclosed embodiment can obtain the condensed water production, and on this basis, obtain the preset speed corresponding to the condensed water production, and then determine whether the condensed water production speed exceeds the preset speed. If it is determined that the condensed water production speed exceeds the preset speed, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state.

[0079] As another optional method, after determining that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state, the embodiment of the present disclosure can obtain the outdoor ambient temperature corresponding to the air conditioner, and on this basis, select the corresponding anti-condensation program according to the outdoor ambient temperature, that is, enter step S130.

[0080] In step S130, a target anti-condensation program is selected according to the outdoor ambient temperature.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, different outdoor ambient temperatures may correspond to different anti-condensation programs, wherein the anti-condensation program may include a conventional condensation program and a high-temperature condensation program. Here, the conventional condensation program may adjust the inner tube temperature more than the high-temperature condensation program adjusts the inner tube temperature.

[0082] For example, when the windshield is at gear 1 to 2, if the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted using the conventional condensation program, 1°C can be added to the original temperature; if the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted using the high-temperature condensation program, 0.5°C can be added to the original temperature.

[0083] In step S140, the inner pipe temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted based on the target anti-condensation program to obtain a target inner pipe temperature.

[0084] In some embodiments, the present disclosure can adjust the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner according to the target anti-condensation program to obtain the target inner tube temperature. The air conditioner may include a compressor. In the process of adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the target condensation program, the embodiment of the present disclosure can adjust the inner tube temperature by increasing or decreasing the frequency of the compressor.

[0085] Optionally, the air conditioner may also include an electronic expansion valve. In the process of adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the target condensation program, the embodiment of the present disclosure may also adjust the inner tube temperature by opening or closing the electronic expansion valve.

[0086] Optionally, the embodiment of the present disclosure can also adjust the inner tube temperature by adjusting the compressor frequency and the electronic expansion valve. The specific method of adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is not clearly defined here and can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0087] As an example, in the process of adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the target anti-condensation program, the compressor frequency is kept unchanged, and the valve of the electronic expansion valve is opened wider, so that the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner can be increased; the valve of the electronic expansion valve is closed, so that the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner can be reduced.

[0088] In summary, the disclosed embodiment can adjust the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner according to the target condensation program to obtain the target inner tube temperature. On this basis, the indoor cooling is achieved through the target inner tube temperature, which can not only effectively improve the reliability of condensation, but also improve the cooling effect, and ensure the comfort of users using the air conditioner.

[0089] As an optional method, when adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the target anti-condensation program, the embodiment of the present disclosure can obtain the fan gear of the air conditioner, and on this basis, obtain the adjustment temperature corresponding to the fan gear under different anti-condensation programs, and then adjust the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the adjustment temperature to obtain the target inner tube temperature.

[0090] The present invention determines that when the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state through the condensed water output, the outdoor ambient temperature is obtained, and the anti-condensation program can be selected according to the outdoor ambient temperature. The reliability of condensation can be effectively improved by adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner through the anti-condensation program.

[0091] Figure 2 is a flow chart showing another method for controlling an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following steps.

[0092] In step S210, the condensed water production of the air conditioner within a preset time period is obtained.

[0093] As an optional method, before obtaining the condensed water production of the air conditioner in the preset time period, the embodiment of the present disclosure may first obtain the indoor environment temperature and outdoor environment temperature corresponding to the air conditioner. On this basis, if it is determined that the indoor environment temperature is lower than the first temperature threshold and the outdoor environment temperature is lower than the second temperature threshold, the condensed water production of the air conditioner in the preset time period is obtained.

[0094] As an example, the first temperature threshold may be 29° C., and the second temperature threshold may be 36° C. Here, the first temperature threshold and the second temperature threshold may be determined according to the environment or geographical location of the air conditioner. In other words, the first temperature threshold and the second temperature threshold are adjustable, and the two may be selected according to actual conditions.

[0095] In step S220, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state based on the condensed water output, and the outdoor ambient temperature corresponding to the air conditioner is obtained.

[0096] In some embodiments, when it is determined based on the condensed water output that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state, an anti-condensation program is executed. Specifically, the outdoor ambient temperature corresponding to the air conditioner is obtained, and the corresponding anti-condensation program is selected based on the outdoor ambient temperature, and on this basis, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted using the corresponding anti-condensation program.

[0097] Optionally, if it is determined based on the condensed water output that the air conditioner does not meet the anti-condensation state, the embodiment of the present disclosure can again determine whether the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner is lower than the first temperature threshold, and determine whether the outdoor ambient temperature is lower than the second temperature threshold. If the indoor ambient temperature is lower than the first temperature threshold, and it is determined that the outdoor ambient temperature is lower than the second temperature threshold, the condensed water output of the air conditioner within a preset time period is obtained. On this basis, it is again determined based on the condensed water output that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state, and the outdoor ambient temperature corresponding to the air conditioner is obtained.

[0098] In step S230, it is determined that the outdoor ambient temperature is lower than a preset temperature, and the conventional condensation program is used as the target anti-condensation program.

[0099] As an optional method, after obtaining the outdoor ambient temperature, if the embodiment of the present disclosure determines that the outdoor ambient temperature is less than the preset temperature, the conventional condensation program is used as the target anti-condensation program, and the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted based on the conventional condensation program to obtain the target inner tube temperature, that is, entering step S240. As an example, the preset temperature may be 34°C.

[0100] Optionally, if it is determined that the outdoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, the embodiment of the present disclosure can use the high-temperature condensation program as the target anti-condensation program, and adjust the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the high-temperature condensation program to obtain the target inner tube temperature, that is, enter step S250 to step S260.

[0101] In step S240, the inner pipe temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted based on the normal condensation procedure to obtain a target inner pipe temperature.

[0102] Through the above introduction, it is known that the adjustment range of the conventional condensation program is higher than that of the high-temperature condensation program. In the process of adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner according to the conventional condensation program, the embodiment of the present disclosure can obtain the fan gear of the air conditioner. On this basis, if it is determined that the fan gear is lower than the first preset gear, the first adjustment temperature corresponding to the fan gear is obtained, and the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is increased based on the first adjustment temperature.

[0103] The first preset gear may be a gear obtained through multiple tests that can ensure both the anti-condensation effect and the cooling effect when the outdoor ambient temperature is lower than the preset temperature. As an example, the first preset gear may be gear 5.

[0104] Optionally, if it is determined that the fan gear is higher than the first preset gear, a second adjustment temperature corresponding to the fan gear is obtained, and the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is lowered based on the second adjustment temperature. In addition, when the fan gear is determined to be the first preset gear, the embodiment of the present disclosure can keep the inner tube temperature unchanged.

[0105] As an optional method, when it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state, the embodiment of the present disclosure can start a first timer, and when the timing of the first timer reaches a first duration, turn off the compressor. In addition, when the compressor shutdown time reaches a second duration, the embodiment of the present disclosure can turn on the compressor again and re-obtain the condensed water output of the air conditioner.

[0106] It should be noted that the first duration may be different for different anti-condensation programs. For example, in a conventional condensation program, the first duration may be 2 hours. In another example, in a high-temperature condensation program, the first duration may be 3 hours.

[0107] In step S250, it is determined that the outdoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to a preset temperature, and the high temperature condensation program is used as a target anti-condensation program.

[0108] As an optional method, when it is determined that the outdoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, the embodiment of the present disclosure can use the high temperature condensation program as the target anti-condensation program. Here, the adjustment range of the target anti-condensation program on the inner tube temperature is lower than that of the conventional condensation program.

[0109] In step S260, the inner pipe temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted based on the high temperature condensation program to obtain a target inner pipe temperature.

[0110] In some embodiments, similar to the conventional condensation program, in the process of adjusting the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the high temperature condensation program, the embodiment of the present disclosure can first obtain the fan gear of the air conditioner. On this basis, determine whether the fan gear is lower than the second preset gear, if it is determined that the fan gear is lower than the second preset gear, obtain the third adjustment temperature corresponding to the fan gear, and increase the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner based on the third adjustment temperature to obtain the target inner tube temperature.

[0111] The second preset gear is similar to the first preset gear, and can also be a gear obtained through multiple tests that can ensure both the anti-condensation effect and the cooling effect when the outdoor ambient temperature is higher than the preset temperature. As an example, the second preset gear can be gears 3 to 4.

[0112] Optionally, if it is determined that the fan gear is higher than the second preset gear, a fourth adjustment temperature corresponding to the fan gear is obtained, and the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is lowered based on the fourth adjustment temperature. In addition, when the fan gear is determined to be the second preset gear, the embodiment of the present disclosure can keep the inner tube temperature unchanged.

[0113] In the disclosed embodiment, the gears of the air conditioner may include 1-2, 3-4, 5 and 6-7, wherein the speeds of 1 and 2 are 600r / min and 690r / min respectively; the speeds of 3 and 4 are 800r / min and 920r / min respectively; the speeds of 5, 6 and 7 are 980r / min, 1050r / min and 1150r / min respectively.

[0114] It should be noted that after the compressor is turned off and then turned on again, the embodiment of the present disclosure can determine whether the ambient temperature of the air conditioner meets the preset conditions, that is, determine whether the indoor environment is less than the first temperature threshold, and determine whether the outdoor environment is less than the second temperature threshold. If it is determined that the ambient temperature of the air conditioner meets the preset conditions, the condensed water production of the air conditioner is obtained again, and it is continued to determine whether the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state based on the condensed water production, that is, repeat steps S210 to S260.

[0115] In order to better understand the control process of the air conditioner, the present disclosure provides the following examples: Figure 3 The example diagram shown is Figure 3 It is known that after the air conditioner unit is turned on for cooling operation, the present disclosure can detect the indoor temperature (inner ring temperature) and outdoor temperature (outer ring temperature) of the unit operation, and then if it is determined that the indoor temperature is lower than the first temperature threshold (29°C), and the outdoor temperature is lower than the second temperature threshold (36°C), then the condensation water production Q in the first 10 minutes (preset time period) of the air conditioner operation is obtained. Here, the first 10 minutes can be a certain time period after the air conditioner is turned on.

[0116] On this basis, the obtained condensed water production is compared with the data stored in the air conditioner memory to determine whether the air conditioner meets the requirements for entering the anti-condensation state, that is, to determine whether the condensed water production exceeds the preset production. If it is determined that the condensed water production exceeds the preset production, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state. At this time, the air conditioner can execute the anti-condensation program. Specifically, when the outdoor ambient temperature is lower than the preset temperature (34°C), the conventional condensation program is selected; when the outdoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the preset temperature (34°C), the high-temperature condensation program is selected.

[0117] Here, when executing the conventional condensation program and the high-temperature condensation program, the embodiment of the present disclosure can correct the operating target evaporation temperature according to the gear position of the air conditioner, that is, adjust the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner, and the adjustment range corresponding to different condensation programs is also different.

[0118] As an example, in the normal condensation program, when the wind speed is at gears 1-2, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is increased by 1°C, that is, the inner tube temperature is +1°C; when the wind speed is at gears 3-4, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is increased by 0.5°C, that is, the inner tube temperature is +0.5°C; when the wind speed is at gears 5, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner remains unchanged; when the wind speed is at gears 6-7, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is reduced by 1.5°C, that is, the inner tube temperature is -1.5°C. In addition, when the continuous operation time in the anti-condensation mode is greater than 2h, the embodiment of the present disclosure can re-execute the above judgment after the compressor is shut down for 3min, and the compressor frequency starts to run from the initial frequency.

[0119] As another example, in the high-temperature condensation program, when the wind speed is at gears 1-2, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is increased by 0.5°C, that is, the inner tube temperature is +0.5°C; when the wind speed is at gears 3-4, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner remains unchanged; when the wind speed is at gear 5, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is reduced by 0.5°C, that is, the inner tube temperature is -0.5°C; when the wind speed is at gears 6-7, the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner is reduced by 1°C, that is, the inner tube temperature is -1°C. In addition, when the continuous operation time in the anti-condensation mode is greater than 3h, the embodiment of the present disclosure can re-execute the above judgment after the compressor is shut down for 3min, and the compressor frequency starts to run from the initial frequency.

[0120] Optionally, after the compression is shut down and restarted, the embodiment of the present disclosure can detect whether the current ambient temperature meets the preset conditions. If the preset conditions are met, the condensed water output is re-acquired, that is, step S210 is entered. If the preset conditions are not met, the anti-condensation control program is terminated. Here, the preset conditions can be that the indoor ambient temperature is less than the first temperature threshold and the outdoor ambient temperature is less than the second temperature threshold. In this way, not only can the condensation reliability be met when the user is using it, but also the cooling output of the air conditioner can be improved, and the user's comfort can be improved.

[0121] The present disclosure determines that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state through the condensed water output, obtains the outdoor ambient temperature, and can select the anti-condensation program according to the outdoor ambient temperature. The anti-condensation program adjusts the inner tube temperature of the air conditioner to effectively improve the reliability of condensation. In addition, the embodiment of the present disclosure can not only ensure the condensation result, but also improve the cooling capacity of the air conditioner by introducing the conventional condensation program and the high-temperature condensation program, thereby ensuring the comfort of indoor users.

[0122] Figure 4 is a block diagram of a control device for an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 4 The air conditioner control device 400 includes a water volume acquisition module 410, a temperature acquisition module 420, a selection module 430 and an adjustment module 440.

[0124] The temperature acquisition module 420 is configured to determine that the air conditioner meets the anti-condensation state based on the condensed water production, and acquire the outdoor environment temperature corresponding to the air conditioner;
