Therefore, the present application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed in the present application.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, in the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an air conditioner fault detection method, which includes S10~S40, can accurately determine the fault type of the compressor, and then guide the maintenance personnel to accurately handle the compressor fault, reduce the maintenance operation burden and improve the convenience of maintenance operation.
[0029] The air conditioner 1 includes a compressor and an exhaust pipe, and the exhaust pipe is connected to the exhaust port of the compressor. The type of the air conditioner 1 can be determined according to actual needs, and can be, for example, a wall-mounted air conditioner 1, a cabinet air conditioner 1, a window air conditioner 1, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments, the air conditioner 1 can include an exhaust temperature sensor, which is arranged on the exhaust pipe and is used to detect the temperature of the exhaust pipe.
[0030] S10: Determine whether the amplitude of the compressor exceeds an amplitude threshold.
[0031] Here, the amplitude of the compressor can be determined by measuring with a sensor provided on the compressor. In some examples, determining whether the amplitude of the compressor exceeds the amplitude threshold value may be determining whether the amplitude of the compressor along a preset direction exceeds the amplitude threshold value. The preset direction may be predetermined according to the actual operating conditions of the compressor, and may be a vibration direction that can accurately reflect the abnormal vibration state of the compressor. The number of preset directions may be determined according to actual needs, and may be one or more, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The amplitude threshold value may be predetermined according to the historical operating data and / or experimental test data of the compressor when abnormal vibration occurs, and may be pre-stored in the control system of the air conditioner 1; when the compressor is provided with a plurality of preset directions, a corresponding amplitude threshold value may be set for each preset direction.
[0032] In some embodiments, the compressor may be mounted on the bottom plate of the air conditioner 1, and the preset direction may include at least the up-down direction. Exemplarily, the preset direction may be the up-down direction, and in this case, it may be directly determined whether the vibration amplitude of the compressor in the up-down direction exceeds the amplitude threshold; in another exemplary embodiment, the preset direction may include the up-down direction and the horizontal direction, and the horizontal direction may include at least one of the left-right direction and the front-back direction, and in this case, it may be determined whether the vibration amplitude of the compressor in the up-down direction and the horizontal direction exceeds the corresponding amplitude thresholds.
[0033] S20: In response to determining that the amplitude of the compressor exceeds the amplitude threshold, determine whether the phase current of the compressor meets a preset change condition and whether the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the exhaust pipe temperature within a first preset time period is less than the fluctuation amplitude threshold.
[0034] When it is determined that the amplitude of the compressor exceeds the amplitude threshold, for example, when it is determined that the amplitude of the compressor along a preset direction exceeds the amplitude threshold, it can be determined that the compressor has abnormally vibrated and there may be a fault problem. At this time, it can be further determined whether the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition and whether the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the temperature of the exhaust pipe within the first preset time is less than the fluctuation amplitude threshold, so as to accurately determine the actual cause of the abnormal vibration of the compressor, and then accurately determine the fault type of the compressor.
[0035] S30: In response to determining that the phase current of the compressor satisfies a preset change condition and the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the temperature of the exhaust pipe within a first preset time period is less than a fluctuation amplitude threshold, determining that the exhaust pipe is ruptured.
[0036] Here, the change of the phase current of the compressor when the exhaust pipe is ruptured can be predetermined based on historical operation data and / or experimental test data, and the change can be used as the preset change condition.
[0037] Similarly, the upper limit of the temperature fluctuation amplitude of the exhaust pipe where the rupture occurs can be predetermined based on historical operation data and / or experimental test data, thereby obtaining a threshold value of the temperature fluctuation amplitude of the exhaust pipe. The maximum fluctuation amplitude of the temperature of the exhaust pipe within the first preset time period can be the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature of the exhaust pipe within the first preset time period. The specific value of the first preset time period can be determined according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this; for example, the first preset time period can be 4 to 7 minutes, for example, it can be different values such as 4 minutes, 5 minutes, 6 minutes or 7 minutes.
[0038] When it is determined that the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition and the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the temperature of the exhaust pipe within the first preset time period is less than the fluctuation amplitude threshold, it can be determined that the exhaust pipe is broken. The exhaust pipe may be broken, which may include the exhaust pipe being broken into at least two pieces, the existence of a large crack on the exhaust pipe, and the crack causing the exhaust pipe to shake significantly, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. At this time, maintenance personnel are required to replace the exhaust pipe to avoid the exhaust pipe being broken and continuing to cause abnormal vibration of the compressor.
[0039] S40: In response to determining that the phase current of the compressor does not satisfy a preset change condition or that the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the temperature of the exhaust pipe within a first preset time period is greater than or equal to a fluctuation amplitude threshold, determining that the compressor fails.
[0040] When it is determined that the phase current of the compressor does not meet the preset change condition or the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the temperature of the exhaust pipe within the first preset time period is greater than or equal to the fluctuation amplitude threshold, it can be determined that the exhaust pipe is not broken, but the compressor is faulty. Here, the failure of the compressor may include failure of the compressor body due to aging, loosening and falling of bolts used to fix the compressor, and other types of failures, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. At this time, maintenance personnel are required to perform troubleshooting operations such as maintenance of the compressor body or tightening the bolts used to fix the compressor to avoid compressor failure and continue to cause abnormal vibration of the compressor.
[0041] Compared with the related art, the air conditioner fault detection method provided in the embodiment of the present application first determines whether the amplitude of the compressor along a preset direction exceeds the amplitude threshold. When the amplitude of the compressor along the preset direction exceeds the amplitude threshold, it further determines whether the phase current of the compressor satisfies the preset change condition and whether the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the exhaust pipe temperature within the first preset time period is less than the fluctuation amplitude threshold, thereby accurately identifying the actual cause of the abnormal vibration of the compressor, such as determining the cause of the fault as a specific type such as a rupture of the exhaust pipe or a failure of the compressor, so as to guide maintenance personnel to accurately handle the compressor fault, reduce the burden of maintenance operations and improve the convenience of maintenance operations.
[0042] The type of preset change condition can be determined according to the actual working conditions, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, "determining whether the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition" in S20 may include S201-S202.
[0043] S201: Determine whether the phase current of the compressor is less than the current threshold value within a second preset time period.
[0044] Here, the current threshold value may be pre-set in the control system of the air conditioner 1 to serve as a judgment condition for whether the phase current of the compressor satisfies a preset change condition.
[0045] S202: In response to determining that the phase current of the compressor is less than the current threshold value within a second preset time period, determining that the phase current of the compressor satisfies a preset change condition.
[0046] The specific value of the second preset time length can be determined according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. The first preset time length and the second preset time length may be equal or unequal, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. Exemplarily, the second preset time length may be 4 to 7 minutes, for example, it may be different values such as 4 minutes, 5 minutes, 6 minutes or 7 minutes. After determining that the phase current of the compressor is less than the current threshold within the second preset time length, it can be determined that the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition, and the abnormal vibration of the compressor may be caused by a rupture in the exhaust pipe.
[0047] By setting S201 to S202, it is possible to more accurately determine whether the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition, and then use it as one of the identification conditions to accurately identify the specific fault cause that causes the abnormal vibration of the compressor.
[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in some examples, “determining whether the phase current of the compressor satisfies a preset change condition” in S20 may include S203 to S205 .
[0049] S203: In response to determining that the phase current of the compressor is greater than or equal to the current threshold at at least one moment within the second preset time period, determine whether the change trend of the phase current of the compressor within the second preset time period is gradually decreasing.
[0050] When it is determined that the phase current of the compressor is greater than or equal to the current threshold at at least one moment within the second preset time period, that is, the phase current of the compressor is not completely less than the current threshold within the second preset time period, it can be further determined whether the change trend of the phase current of the compressor within the second preset time period is gradually decreasing, so as to further determine whether the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition.
[0051] Exemplarily, the change trend of the compressor phase current within the second preset time length is gradually decreasing, which may refer to that the compressor phase current continuously decreases within the second preset time length, that is, in any two adjacent moments within the second preset time length, the compressor phase current at the previous moment is greater than the phase current at the next moment. Another exemplary example, the change trend of the compressor phase current within the second preset time length is gradually decreasing, which may refer to that the compressor phase current continuously decreases in part of the time period of the second preset time and remains unchanged in the remaining time period; in other words, the change curve of the compressor phase current within the second preset time length includes multiple descending segments and at least one platform segment, the platform segment is located between two adjacent descending segments, and the compressor phase current continuously decreases in the descending segment and remains unchanged in the platform segment.
[0052] S204: In response to determining that the change trend of the phase current of the compressor within the second preset time period is gradually decreasing, determining that the phase current of the compressor meets a preset change condition.
[0053] When it is determined that the phase current of the compressor is greater than or equal to the current threshold at at least one moment within the second preset time period, and the changing trend of the phase current of the compressor within the second preset time period is gradually decreasing, it can be determined that the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition, and the abnormal vibration of the compressor may be caused by a rupture in the exhaust pipe.
[0054] S205: In response to determining that the change trend of the phase current of the compressor within the second preset time period is not gradually decreasing, determining that the phase current of the compressor does not meet the preset change condition.
[0055] Here, the change trend of the phase current of the compressor within the second preset time length is not gradually decreasing, which may mean that the phase current of the compressor continuously rises in at least a part of the time period within the second preset time length, or may also mean that the phase current of the compressor remains unchanged within the second preset time length. When it is determined that the phase current of the compressor is greater than or equal to the current threshold at at least one moment within the second preset time length, but the change trend of the phase current of the compressor within the second preset time length is not gradually decreasing, it can be determined that the phase current of the compressor does not meet the preset change condition, and the abnormal vibration of the compressor is not caused by the rupture of the exhaust pipe.
[0056] By setting S203 to S205, it is possible to more accurately determine whether the phase current of the compressor meets the preset change condition, and then use it as one of the identification conditions to accurately identify the specific fault cause that causes the abnormal vibration of the compressor.
[0057] In some embodiments, the compressor may be provided with a plurality of preset directions as described above. Figure 4 As shown, S10 may include S11-S12.
[0058] S11: Determine whether the vibration amplitudes of the compressor along multiple preset directions all exceed the amplitude threshold, and whether the durations of the vibration amplitudes of the compressor along multiple preset directions exceeding the amplitude threshold all exceed the time threshold.
[0059] S12: In response to determining that the amplitudes of the compressor along multiple preset directions all exceed the amplitude threshold, and the durations of the amplitudes of the compressor along multiple preset directions exceeding the amplitude threshold all exceed the time threshold, determine that the amplitude of the compressor exceeds the amplitude threshold.
[0060] Exemplarily, the multiple preset directions may include an up-down direction and a horizontal direction, and the horizontal direction may include at least one of a left-right direction and a front-back direction. Here, it may be determined whether the amplitude of the compressor in the up-down direction and the horizontal direction exceeds the amplitude threshold, and whether the duration of the amplitude of the compressor in the up-down direction and the horizontal direction exceeding the amplitude threshold exceeds the time threshold, so as to determine whether the amplitude of the compressor exceeds the amplitude threshold. After determining that the amplitude of the compressor in multiple preset directions exceeds the amplitude threshold, and the duration of the amplitude of the compressor in multiple preset directions exceeding the amplitude threshold exceeds the time threshold, it may be determined that the amplitude of the compressor exceeds the amplitude threshold.
[0061] In some embodiments, the air conditioner 1 may include a gyroscope. The gyroscope is configured to measure the offset angle of a preset axis on the compressor, and the preset axis extends along the preset direction. The type of gyroscope can be determined according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this; illustratively, the gyroscope can be a three-axis gyroscope. Before S10, the air conditioner fault detection method may include S01 to S05.
[0062] S01: Get the angle of the preset axis at the current moment and the angle at the previous moment.
[0063] S02: In response to determining that the angle of the preset axis at the current moment and the angle at the previous moment are both within the first angle partition or both within the second angle partition, the difference between the angle of the preset axis at the current moment and the angle at the previous moment is used as the offset angle of the preset axis.
[0064] S03: In response to determining that the angle of the preset axis at the current moment is within the first angle partition and the angle of the preset axis at the previous moment is within the second angle partition, determine the offset angle of the preset axis according to the following formula:
[0065] Δε=(180°+α i )+(180°-α i-1 )
[0066] S04: In response to determining that the angle of the preset axis at the current moment is within the second angle partition and the angle of the preset axis at the previous moment is within the first angle partition, determine the offset angle of the preset axis according to the following formula:
[0067] Δε=(180°+α i-1 )+(180°-α i )
[0068] Among them, Δε is the offset angle of the preset axis, α i-1 is the angle of the preset axis at the previous moment, α i is the angle of the preset axis at the current moment, i is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2; the first angle partition is 0° to 180°, and the second angle partition is -180° to 0°.
[0069] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an air conditioner fault detection device for performing fault detection on the above-mentioned air conditioner 1, the air conditioner fault detection device comprising: an amplitude comparison circuit, configured to determine whether the amplitude of the compressor exceeds an amplitude threshold; a fault determination circuit, configured to perform the following fault determination operations: in response to determining that the amplitude of the compressor exceeds the amplitude threshold, determining whether the phase current of the compressor is gradually decreasing and whether the measured values of the exhaust temperature sensor within a preset time are all lower than the temperature threshold; in response to determining that the phase current of the compressor is gradually decreasing and the measured values of the exhaust temperature sensor within a preset time are all lower than the temperature threshold, determining that the exhaust pipe is damaged or loose; in response to determining that the phase current of the compressor is not gradually decreasing or the measured values of the exhaust temperature sensor within a preset time are not lower than the temperature threshold, determining that the compressor is faulty.
