[0024] In order to enable persons skilled in the art to more fully understand the features and technical contents of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are used only for reference and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0030] In some embodiments, the air conditioner usually operates according to the set temperature. However, due to the difference in the space area where the air conditioner actually needs to cool or heat, the user may feel very cold when the air conditioner needs to cool a smaller space area, and the user may feel very hot when the air conditioner needs to cool a larger space area. Thus, the air conditioner operating according to the set temperature may result in a poor user experience. The present application obtains a plurality of space distances of the space where the air conditioner is located. The first operating parameter is determined according to the space distances. The air conditioner is triggered to operate according to the first operating parameter. In this way, since the space distance can reflect the actual use space of the air conditioner, the first operating parameter of the air conditioner is determined according to the space distance, so that the operating parameter of the air conditioner can be adapted to the actual use space of the air conditioner. Thus, the air conditioner can be reasonably controlled, and the user experience can be improved.

[0031] In combination Figure 1 The present disclosure provides a method for controlling an air conditioner, including:

[0032] In step S101, the air conditioner obtains a plurality of space distances of the space where the air conditioner is located.

[0033] In step S102, the air conditioner determines a first operating parameter according to the space distances; the first operating parameter includes a deflector angle.

[0034] In step S103, the air conditioner triggers the air conditioner to operate according to the first operating parameter.

[0035] The method for controlling an air conditioner provided by the present disclosure obtains a plurality of space distances of the space where the air conditioner is located. The first operating parameter is determined according to the space distances. The air conditioner is triggered to operate according to the first operating parameter. In this way, since the space distance can reflect the actual use space of the air conditioner, the first operating parameter of the air conditioner is determined according to the space distance, so that the operating parameter of the air conditioner can be adapted to the actual use space of the air conditioner. Thus, the air conditioner can be reasonably controlled, and the user experience can be improved.

[0036] In some embodiments, the space where the air conditioner is located, for example, a kitchen where the air conditioner is installed, a bedroom where the air conditioner is installed, or a living room where the air conditioner is installed.

[0037] Optionally, obtaining the space distance of the space where the air conditioner is located includes: determining the space distance according to an electromagnetic wave group; the electromagnetic wave group includes an electromagnetic wave emission signal and an electromagnetic wave reflection signal corresponding to the electromagnetic wave emission signal.

[0038] In some embodiments, the air conditioner is provided with a ranging device, and the electromagnetic wave group is obtained by the ranging device. The ranging device is used for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic wave signals. The electromagnetic wave signal emitted by the ranging device is referred to as an electromagnetic wave transmission signal. The reflected electromagnetic wave signal received by the ranging device is referred to as an electromagnetic wave reflection signal. The ranging device is, for example, a millimeter wave radar. In this way, since the electromagnetic wave transmitted by the radar will be reflected when it encounters an obstacle, and the electromagnetic wave propagates at the speed of light, the accurate distance between the radar and the obstacle can be calculated according to the time difference between the electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the electromagnetic wave reflection signal in the electromagnetic wave group, and the propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave. Thus, the spatial distance is accurately obtained.

[0039] Optionally, there is a set of electromagnetic wave groups; the spatial distance is determined according to the electromagnetic wave groups, including: obtaining a first time difference value; determining a first to-be-calculated distance according to the first time difference value, and determining the first to-be-calculated distance as the spatial distance. The first time difference value is the time difference between the electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the electromagnetic wave reflection signal in the electromagnetic wave group.

[0040] Further, the first to-be-calculated distance is determined according to the first time difference value, including: calculating the first time difference value x light speed ÷ 2 to obtain the first to-be-calculated distance. The light speed is used to represent the propagation speed of light waves or electromagnetic waves in a vacuum or a medium.

[0041] Optionally, there are multiple sets of electromagnetic wave groups; the spatial distance is determined according to the electromagnetic wave groups, including: obtaining a first time difference value corresponding to each electromagnetic wave group; determining a first to-be-calculated distance corresponding to each first time difference value according to each first time difference value; and determining the average of each first to-be-calculated distance as the spatial distance.

[0042] Optionally, the spatial distance of the space where the air conditioner is located is obtained, including: performing a preset operation until the statistical number reaches a preset number. The average of each second to-be-calculated distance is determined as the spatial distance. The preset operation is: emitting a first electromagnetic wave transmission signal and receiving a first electromagnetic wave reflection signal corresponding to the first electromagnetic wave transmission signal; determining a first electromagnetic wave form change between the first electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the first electromagnetic wave reflection signal; determining a first alternative distance according to a second time difference value between the first electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the first electromagnetic wave reflection signal, and accumulating the statistical number; emitting a second electromagnetic wave transmission signal and receiving a second electromagnetic wave reflection signal corresponding to the second electromagnetic wave transmission signal; determining a second electromagnetic wave form change between the second electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the second electromagnetic wave reflection signal; determining a second alternative distance according to a third time difference value between the second electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the second electromagnetic wave reflection signal, and accumulating the statistical number; in the case that the first electromagnetic wave form change and the second electromagnetic wave form change are the same, and the first alternative distance and the second alternative distance are the same, the first alternative distance and the second alternative distance are determined as the second to-be-calculated distance.

[0043] Further, the first alternative distance is determined according to a second time difference between the first electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the first electromagnetic wave reflection signal, including: calculating the second time difference × light speed ÷ 2 to obtain the first alternative distance.

[0044] Further, the second alternative distance is determined according to a third time difference between the second electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the second electromagnetic wave reflection signal, including: calculating the third time difference × light speed ÷ 2 to obtain the second alternative distance.

[0045] Optionally, in the case that the first electromagnetic wave form change is the same as the second electromagnetic wave form change, and the first alternative distance is the same as the second alternative distance, after the first alternative distance and the second alternative distance are determined as the second to-be-calculated distance, the method further includes: in the case that the distance difference value is greater than a preset distance difference value, clearing the statistical number. The distance difference value is the difference between the first alternative distance and the second alternative distance. In this way, if the distance difference value is greater than the preset distance difference value, the current obtained distance error is relatively large. Therefore, by clearing the statistical number and reacquiring the second to-be-calculated distance, the spatial distance can be more accurately obtained.

[0046] In some embodiments, the air conditioner measures a spatial distance in an A direction. The air conditioner transmits a first electromagnetic wave transmission signal to the A direction through a distance measuring device, and receives a first electromagnetic wave reflection signal corresponding to the first electromagnetic wave transmission signal. A first electromagnetic wave form change ΔE1 between the first electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the first electromagnetic wave reflection signal is determined. A first alternative distance S1 is determined according to a second time difference ΔT1 between the first electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the first electromagnetic wave reflection signal. The statistical number is accumulated to 1. The air conditioner transmits a second electromagnetic wave transmission signal to the A direction through the distance measuring device, and receives a second electromagnetic wave reflection signal corresponding to the second electromagnetic wave transmission signal. A second electromagnetic wave form change ΔE2 between the second electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the second electromagnetic wave reflection signal is determined. A second alternative distance S2 is determined according to a third time difference ΔT2 between the second electromagnetic wave transmission signal and the second electromagnetic wave reflection signal, and the statistical number is accumulated to 2. In the case that the first electromagnetic wave form change is the same as the second electromagnetic wave form change, and the first alternative distance is the same as the second alternative distance, the first alternative distance and the second alternative distance are determined as a second to-be-calculated distance. The above steps are repeated until the statistical number is a preset number. Then, an average value of the second to-be-calculated distance is calculated as the spatial distance in the A direction. Similarly, the spatial distances corresponding to each direction of the air conditioner can be obtained.

[0047] Optionally, the first operation parameter is determined according to the spatial distances, including: performing a table lookup operation on the spatial distances by using a preset first operation database to obtain the first operation parameter corresponding to the spatial distances; and the first operation database stores a corresponding relationship between the spatial distances and the first operation parameter. In this way, by pre-setting the first operation database, the first operation parameter can be quickly obtained by using the table lookup operation.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 are layout diagrams of air conditioners. As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the air conditioner has different distances to the obstacles from different directions, that is, the air conditioner has several different spatial distances.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first operation parameter includes: a deflector angle and a wind power. There are three spatial distances, for example: a spatial distance a, a spatial distance b and a spatial distance c. The spatial distance b is smaller than the spatial distance a, and the spatial distance c is smaller than the spatial distance a. The table lookup operation is performed on the spatial distance a, the spatial distance b and the spatial distance c by using a preset first operation database. The first operation parameter is obtained as the direction corresponding to the spatial distance a. When the deflector angle is in the same direction as the spatial distance a, the wind power is the largest when the air conditioner performs the wind sweeping.

[0050] Optionally, the first operation parameter is determined according to the spatial distances, including: determining an actual use area of the air conditioner according to the spatial distances; and determining the first operation parameter according to the actual use area of the air conditioner. In this way, since there is a correlation between the spatial distances and the actual use area, the actual use area of the air conditioner can be accurately determined according to the spatial distances, so that the first operation parameter can be more accurately determined.

[0051] In some embodiments, after the spatial distances in the directions are obtained, a line segment is drawn according to the direction and the spatial distance corresponding to the direction with the position of the air conditioner as the origin, and an end point of the line segment other than the origin is determined as a candidate end point. Adjacent candidate end points are connected to obtain a use space of the air conditioner. Optionally, a surface area of the use space is calculated as an actual use area of the air conditioner.

[0052] Further, the first operation parameter is determined according to the actual use area of the air conditioner, including: performing a table lookup operation on the actual use area of the air conditioner by using a preset third operation database to obtain the first operation parameter corresponding to the actual use area of the air conditioner; and the third operation database stores a corresponding relationship between the actual use area of the air conditioner and the first operation parameter.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first operation parameter comprises a frequency of the compressor. The second operation database stores a correspondence between an actual use area of the air conditioner and the first operation parameter. For example, when the actual use area is less than a first preset area, the frequency of the compressor is at a first level of capacity. When the actual use area is between the first preset area and a second preset area, the frequency of the compressor is at a second level of capacity. When the actual use area is greater than the second preset area, the frequency of the compressor is at a third level of capacity. The frequency of the compressor corresponding to the third level of capacity is higher than the frequency of the compressor corresponding to the second level of capacity. The frequency of the compressor corresponding to the second level of capacity is higher than the frequency of the compressor corresponding to the first level of capacity.

[0054] Optionally, after determining the first operation parameter according to the spatial distance, the method further comprises: obtaining actual use areas of the air conditioners; determining an intersection area between the actual use areas of the air conditioners; and determining the second operation parameter corresponding to each air conditioner according to the intersection area. In this way, in the case of multiple air conditioners, since there can be an intersection between the actual use areas of the air conditioners, if the two air conditioners are controlled separately, the temperature of the intersection part where the two air conditioners can blow air can be made colder or hotter. Therefore, taking the intersection area as a control factor and determining the second operation parameter corresponding to each air conditioner according to the intersection area can control the air conditioners more reasonably.

[0055] In some embodiments, after obtaining the spatial distance in each direction, a line segment is drawn according to the direction and the spatial distance corresponding to the direction with the position of the air conditioner as the origin, and an end point of the line segment other than the origin is determined as a candidate end point. Adjacent candidate end points are connected to obtain a use space of the air conditioner. The above operation is repeated for each air conditioner to obtain a use space of each air conditioner. An overlapping space of the use spaces is determined, and the surface area of the overlapping space is taken as the intersection area.

[0056] Optionally, determining the second operation parameter corresponding to each air conditioner according to the intersection area comprises: obtaining a current operation capacity of each air conditioner respectively; and determining the second operation parameter corresponding to each air conditioner according to the current operation capacity and the intersection area. In this way, since the operation capacities of different air conditioners can be different, an air conditioner with a high operation capacity can cool or heat faster, and an air conditioner with a low operation capacity can cool or heat slower. Therefore, the operation capacity and the intersection area can be combined to control the air conditioners more reasonably.

[0057] Optionally, the second running parameter corresponding to each air conditioner is determined according to the current running capability and the intersection area, including: performing a table lookup operation on the current running capability and the intersection area by using a preset second running database to obtain the second running parameter corresponding to the current running capability and the intersection area; and determining the second running parameter as the second running parameter of the air conditioner corresponding to the current running capability. The second running database stores the corresponding relationship among the current running capability, the intersection area and the second running parameter. In this way, the second running parameter corresponding to each air conditioner can be quickly obtained by pre-setting the second running database and performing a table lookup operation.

[0058] In some embodiments, the current running capability of the air conditioner C is D, and the second running parameter corresponding to the air conditioner C is obtained by performing a table lookup operation on the current running capability D and the intersection area by using a preset second running database.

[0059] Optionally, the current running capability of the air conditioner is obtained, including: obtaining the current press operation frequency of the air conditioner; and performing a table lookup operation on the current press operation frequency by using a preset capability database to obtain the current running capability corresponding to the current press operation frequency. The capability database stores the corresponding relationship between the current press operation frequency and the current running capability.

[0060] In some embodiments, the current running capability of the air conditioner is represented by the current press operation frequency of the air conditioner. For example, when the current press operation frequency of the air conditioner is within a preset first frequency range, the current running capability of the air conditioner is determined to be level 1. When the current press operation frequency of the air conditioner is within a preset second frequency range, the current running capability of the air conditioner is determined to be level 2.

[0061] Optionally, after the second running parameter corresponding to each air conditioner is determined according to the intersection area, the air conditioners are triggered to run according to the corresponding second running parameter.

[0062] In some embodiments, the second running parameter is, for example, a press operation frequency, a wind level, etc.

[0063] In some embodiments, the second running parameter is determined according to the current running capability and the intersection area. Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 4 is another schematic diagram of the arrangement of air conditioners. As shown in FIG. 2, Figure 4 Two obstacles and two air conditioners are arranged in a room. During the air supply of the two air conditioners, the air supply ranges will have an intersection. Therefore, the second running parameter of each air conditioner can be adjusted according to the running capability of the air conditioner and the intersection area. For example, if the current running capability of the air conditioners is the same, the intersection area is equally divided for air conditioning. If the current running capability of the air conditioners is different, the intersection area is divided according to the proportion of the current running capability of each air conditioner for air conditioning; or the intersection area is randomly divided for air conditioning.
