[0031] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an air conditioner water full protection control method according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0032] Step S201, obtaining a first water level of a water receiving tray of the air conditioner, and determining whether to control the air conditioner to enter a full water protection state according to the first water level, wherein the full water protection state indicates that a water storage safety mechanism of the water receiving tray is turned on;

[0033] Among them, the air conditioner can be an integrated mobile air conditioner.

[0034] Specifically, "water full protection" refers to a safety mechanism of the air conditioner. When the air conditioner detects that the internal water tray has reached the maximum set capacity or there is a risk of water overflow, it will automatically stop working and display the corresponding "water full" reminder code to prevent damage to the equipment or damage to the use environment caused by water overflow. This design can effectively avoid safety or environmental problems caused by excessive water.

[0035] Step S202, after the air conditioner enters the water full protection state for a predetermined period of time, the second water storage level of the water receiving tray is obtained again, and it is determined whether to release the water full protection state according to the second water storage level.

[0036] Among them, the preset time period can be set to 1min, 5min, 10min, etc.

[0037] Through this embodiment, the first water level of the water receiving tray of the air conditioner is obtained, and it is determined whether to control the air conditioner to enter the full water protection state according to the first water level, wherein the full water protection state indicates that the water storage safety mechanism of the water receiving tray is turned on; after the air conditioner enters the full water protection state for a predetermined period of time, the second water level of the water receiving tray is obtained again, and it is determined whether to release the full water protection state according to the second water level. By continuously detecting the water level of the water receiving tray and controlling whether the air conditioner enters the full water protection state according to the water level, the hidden danger of the air conditioner overflowing and wetting the user's belongings or the environment is avoided, and the user's comfort experience is improved, and the hidden danger of the water receiving tray overflowing under high temperature and high humidity conditions of the existing air conditioner is solved.

[0038] During the specific implementation process, before obtaining the first water storage level of the water receiving tray of the air conditioner, the above method also includes: obtaining the ambient temperature and ambient humidity; when it is determined that the above ambient temperature is greater than the preset temperature, and / or the above ambient humidity is greater than the preset humidity, determining the timing to enter the water storage level collection stage of the above water receiving tray.

[0039] The preset temperature may be set to 30° C., and the preset humidity may be set to 30%.

[0040] This method determines whether the environment where the air conditioner is located is a high temperature and high humidity environment by judging the size of the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity. In a high temperature and high humidity environment, when the condensation water generated by the air conditioner refrigeration is greater than the water consumed by the water pumping motor, the air conditioner is not connected to a drainage pipe, which leads to the hidden danger of the water collecting pan overflowing. Therefore, whether to detect the water storage level is determined based on the detected temperature and humidity, thereby determining whether to control the air conditioner to enter the full water protection state.

[0041] Specifically, a first water level of a water receiving tray of an air conditioner is obtained, and according to the first water level, it is determined whether to control the air conditioner to enter a full water protection state, including: obtaining multiple first water levels through a water level switch module at multiple time points within a first preset time period; when it is determined that multiple first water levels are all greater than or equal to the preset water level, controlling the air conditioner to enter the full water protection state; when it is determined that at least one of the first water levels is less than the preset water level, not controlling the air conditioner to enter the full water protection state, and continuing to monitor the water level of the water receiving tray.

[0042] Among them, the first preset time period can be set to 5s, and the water storage level collection at multiple time points within the first preset time period can be set to be collected once at an interval of 1s within 5s. The preset water storage level can be set according to the water full protection control requirements.

[0043] In this method, when the air conditioner is turned on and the main control is powered, the water level switch module is enabled and starts to detect whether there is water within 5 seconds and once every 1 second. That is, if the high potential is triggered 5 times in a row, it is judged that there is water, otherwise it is judged that there is no water. When there is water in the internal circuit of the water level switch module, it is high level and high potential, and if there is no water, it is low level and low potential. In order to prevent the water level monitoring from misjudging and misreporting when the air conditioner itself shakes or moves; the internal algorithm is: in a single detection, the number of cycles of high and low levels is detected; 50 times are collected within 100ms, and the number of high levels in the cycle is higher than the number of low levels, that is, at this time, the detection is 1 high level and high potential. If there is no water, the air conditioner maintains the high potential to enable normal operation, and the water level switch module continues to detect the water level; if there is water, the water level switch is enabled to be pulled low, the whole machine is shut down for protection, and the display reports "water is full".

[0044] More specifically, the second water level of the water receiving tray is obtained again, and whether to release the full water protection state is determined according to the second water level, including: obtaining the second water level of the water receiving tray at multiple time points within a second preset time period through the water level switch module; when the second water level collected for multiple consecutive times is lower than the preset water level, releasing the full water protection state.

[0045] Among them, the multiple time points within the second preset time period can be set to collect the water storage level once every 2 seconds within 5 minutes.

[0046] This method is to automatically release the water full protection; after the air conditioner enters the water full protection state, it enters the self-recovery mode, and the water level switch module is powered on every 2 seconds to detect whether there is water (briefly pull up to enable during detection), until "no water" is detected twice (twice trigger low voltage), and then send a "no water" flag to the indoor unit (buzzer short beeps to remind, "water full" light flashes quickly for 4 seconds and then turns off), and the whole machine resumes the previous working state (protection is released and operation is resumed, and the indoor fan starts). This can prevent the mobile air conditioner from frequent start and stop, and improve user experience.

[0047] Furthermore, after the water level switch module collects the second water level of the water receiving tray at a second preset time interval, the method further includes: controlling the air conditioner to enter a full water protection shutdown state when the second water level collected for a second preset number of times within a second preset time period is greater than or equal to the preset water level. The method controls the air conditioner to shut down when water is still detected in the water receiving tray for 5 consecutive minutes, thereby ensuring the safety of the equipment.

[0048] Furthermore, before obtaining the second water storage level of the water receiving tray again, the method also includes: controlling the display light of the air conditioner to display a first preset state and generating a full water alarm message, wherein the full water alarm message is used to remind the user to clean the air conditioning condensate water in the water receiving tray.

[0049] Among them, the first preset state can be that the water full display light of the air conditioner is always on, and the water full alarm information can be a buzzer alarm prompt, which can be used to remind the user to clean up the air conditioning condensate in the water tray to maintain the subsequent normal operation of the air conditioner.

[0050] Specifically, after generating the water full alarm information, the method further includes: determining whether a manual recovery signal is received; in the case of receiving the manual recovery signal, controlling the display light of the air conditioner to display a second preset state, and again collecting the first water storage level of the water receiving tray through the water level switch module, and determining whether to control the air conditioner to enter the water full protection state according to the water storage level.

[0051] Among them, the first preset state can be that the water full indicator light of the air conditioner flashes quickly for 4 seconds and then turns off; the manual recovery signal can be that the user short presses the power button.

[0052] This method enters the self-recovery mode after the "water full" protection. The water level switch module is powered on once every 2S to determine whether there is water. If there is water (high voltage is triggered for 5 consecutive times), the timing is started. After 5 minutes of water full protection, if it is continuously detected as "there is water", the water level switch module will no longer be powered on intermittently (that is, the water level module is powered off), the display panel is in standby state, and a shutdown command is sent to the outdoor unit (executed by the indoor unit). At this time, the user needs to manually release the water full protection, that is, enter the manual recovery mode. The user short presses the power button, the water full light flashes quickly for 4s and then turns off, then the air conditioner is turned on, and the main control is powered on.

[0053] In order to enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the technical solution of the present application, the implementation process of the air conditioning water full protection control method of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments.

[0054] The integrated mobile air conditioner is the best choice for people when camping because of its portability, small size and high cooling capacity. In order to improve the convenience and aesthetics of users, the mobile tent air conditioner is designed with a drainage-free function. Under normal use, the air conditioner does not need to be connected to a drain pipe for drainage. The basic principle of drainage-free is to set up a water pumping motor inside, and the condensation water generated by refrigeration is dispersed to the condenser through the water pumping motor so as to evaporate and consume it. Under normal working conditions, the amount of water consumed by the water pumping motor is greater than the condensation water generated by refrigeration. However, under abnormal conditions such as high temperature and high humidity and other harsh working conditions, there is a risk that the condensation water generated by refrigeration is greater than the amount of water consumed by the water pumping motor. Since the air conditioner is not connected to a drain pipe, there is a hidden danger that the water in the water pan will overflow. In order to avoid the hidden danger of overflowing water, the mobile tent air conditioner urgently needs to design a function to remind users of water full protection, so that the air conditioner can ensure that the water does not overflow on its own.

[0055] The present embodiment relates to a specific air conditioner water full protection control method, which is applicable to all integrated mobile air conditioners, including but not limited to integrated mobile air conditioners.

[0056] After the user turns on the air conditioner, the water level switch module is immediately energized and continuously detects the water level. It detects whether there is water when the air conditioner is turned on. After confirming that there is no water (5s), the air conditioner starts and runs normally.

[0057] When the controller detects that the water level switch is in the "water present" state, it enters the "water full" protection state, the entire machine stops running, and sends a "water full" flag to the indoor unit.

[0058] 1) Automatic release of water full protection: After the "water full" protection, the water level switch module is powered on and tested once every 2 seconds until "no water" is detected twice. Then, the "no water" flag is sent to the indoor unit, and the whole machine returns to the previous operating state (protection is released and operation is resumed, and the indoor fan starts).

[0059] 2) Manually release the full water protection: After 5 minutes of full water protection, if it is continuously detected as "there is water", the water level switch module will no longer be powered on intermittently (that is, the water level module will be powered off), the display panel will be in standby state, and a shutdown command will be sent to the outdoor unit (executed by the indoor unit).

[0060] like Figure 3 It is a specific air conditioning water full protection control method, including the following contents:

[0061] When the air conditioner is turned on, the main control is powered on, and the water level switch module is enabled, it starts to detect whether there is water once every 1s within 5s. That is, if the high voltage is triggered 5 times in a row, it is judged that there is water, otherwise it is judged that there is no water. (Note: When there is water in the internal circuit of the water level switch module, it is high level and high potential, and if there is no water, it is low level and low potential. In order to prevent the water level monitoring from misjudging and misreporting when the air conditioner itself shakes or moves; the internal algorithm is: in a single detection, the number of cycles of high and low levels is detected; 50 times are collected within 100ms, and the number of high levels in the cycle is higher than the number of low levels, that is, the detection is 1 high level and high potential at this time.) If there is no water, the air conditioner maintains the high voltage enabled to operate normally, and the water level switch module continues to detect the water level; if it is confirmed that there is water, the water level switch is enabled to be pulled low, the whole machine is shut down for protection, and the display reports "water is full".

[0062] The whole machine stops for protection. After the display reports "water full", the removal of water full protection is divided into two steps, as follows:

[0063] 1) Automatic release of water full protection: After the "water full" protection, it enters the self-recovery mode. The water level switch module is powered on and tested once every 2 seconds to determine whether there is water (briefly pulled high to enable during detection), until "no water" is detected twice (twice triggering low voltage), and then the "no water" flag is sent to the indoor unit (the buzzer beeps briefly to remind, and the "water full" light flashes quickly for 4 seconds and then turns off), and the whole machine returns to the previous working state (protection is released and operation is resumed, and the indoor fan starts).

[0064] 2) Manually release the water full protection: After the "water full" protection, it enters the self-recovery mode. The water level switch module is powered on and tested once every 2s to determine whether there is water. If there is water (triggering high voltage for 5 consecutive times), it enters the timing. After 5 minutes of water full protection, if it is continuously detected as "there is water", the water level switch module will no longer be powered on intermittently (that is, the water level module is powered off), the display panel is in standby state, and a shutdown command is sent to the outdoor unit (executed by the indoor unit). At this time, the user needs to manually release the water full protection, that is, enter the manual recovery mode. The user short presses the power button, the water full light flashes quickly for 4s and then turns off, then the air conditioner is turned on, the main control is powered on, and the first step of the control diagram is entered, and this cycle is repeated.

[0065] The embodiment of the present application continuously detects the water level through the water level switch module to determine whether there is water. If there is no water, the air conditioner operates normally; if there is water, a water full command is issued, and the air conditioner is shut down for protection, reminding the user to pour out the water when the water is full; thereby avoiding the hidden danger of water overflowing and wetting the user's belongings or the environment, and improving the user's comfort experience.

[0066] The embodiment of the present application also provides an air conditioner water full protection control device. It should be noted that the air conditioner water full protection control device of the embodiment of the present application can be used to execute the air conditioner water full protection control method provided by the embodiment of the present application. The device is used to implement the above-mentioned embodiments and preferred implementation modes, and the descriptions that have been made will not be repeated.
