Obviously, the drawings described below are some embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying creative work.

[0028] Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Combine the following Figure 1 to Figure 2 The disinfection air conditioner control method, air conditioner and storage medium of the present invention are described.

[0031] The embodiment of the present invention provides a disinfection air conditioner control method applied to an air conditioner with a disinfection function, such as Figure 1 As shown, the disinfection air conditioning control method includes:

[0032] Step S100, determining that the disinfection mode is started, then controlling the disinfection device to start, so that the disinfection device disinfects the air flowing through the air conditioner, and entering the disinfection process.

[0033] Step S200, if it is determined that someone has entered the room during the disinfection process, the disinfection mode is controlled to be turned off and the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air; wherein, when the disinfection mode is turned off, the disinfection device is in a closed state. Whether someone has entered the room can be detected by a camera or radar.

[0034] Among them, the disinfection mode of the air conditioner can be turned on according to the receipt of disinfection instruction information, or it can be automatically turned on according to the environmental information of the air conditioner.

[0035] In some embodiments, determining that the disinfection mode is activated includes: determining that disinfection instruction information is received, then determining that the disinfection mode is activated. Alternatively, determining that the concentration of a set mist in the air conditioning action area is greater than a set concentration, then determining that the disinfection mode is activated. For example: If a user finds mosquitoes in the room, the user can send a disinfection instruction information through a terminal device such as a mobile phone or a remote control to activate the disinfection mode. Alternatively, the formaldehyde concentration value obtained by the gas concentration detection device is greater than the set concentration value, and the disinfection mode is activated.

[0036] The disinfection device may include at least one of a disinfectant spraying device and an ultraviolet lamp. The disinfectant spraying device is arranged inside the air conditioner, and its liquid spraying outlet is arranged on at least one side of the air outlet of the air conditioner or in the air duct of the air conditioner. Under the action of the fan in the air conditioner, the sprayed disinfectant is dispersed to the surrounding space with the air outlet of the air conditioner. A fan can also be separately arranged in the disinfectant spraying device, and the disinfectant is blown to the surrounding space by its own fan. The ultraviolet lamp is arranged inside the air conditioner so that the ultraviolet rays cannot directly irradiate the outside of the air conditioner, but can only irradiate the outside of the air conditioner through refraction or reflection, thereby performing ultraviolet sterilization and disinfection on the air flowing through the air conditioner. The disinfectant spraying device and the ultraviolet lamp can be arranged in the air conditioner at the same time, and the two can be turned on separately, at the same time, or one after another, and can be set according to actual conditions and needs.

[0037] The air conditioner is in the disinfection process, which means that the room has not been disinfected yet or the disinfectant concentration in the room is high. The disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention judges whether a person enters the room when the air conditioner is in the disinfection process, and switches the disinfection mode to the fresh air mode when a person enters the room, so as to quickly reduce the disinfectant concentration in the room and reduce the impact on human health.

[0038] In the embodiment of the present invention, controlling the disinfection device to turn on in step S100 includes: determining that the disinfectant spraying device is turned on, then controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at a maximum wind speed; or determining that the ultraviolet lamp is turned on, then controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at a minimum wind speed.

[0039] Among them, when disinfection is carried out by a disinfectant spraying device, controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at the maximum wind speed can make the drug diffuse at the fastest speed and evenly distribute it in the air conditioning action space, improve the disinfection efficiency, and also help improve the effect of static disinfection. When disinfection is carried out by ultraviolet light, controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at the minimum wind speed can effectively and fully disinfect the air flowing through the ultraviolet light irradiation area.

[0040] The disinfection air conditioning control method provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes: determining that the disinfection process is completed. In some embodiments, the determination that the disinfection process is completed includes: obtaining disinfection parameters; and determining that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task according to the disinfection parameters, and then determining that the disinfection process is completed.

[0041] In other embodiments, the determination that the disinfection process is complete includes: obtaining disinfection parameters; determining that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task according to the disinfection parameters, then turning off the disinfection device and the fan in the air conditioner to start static disinfection; and determining that the static disinfection lasts for a first set time, then determining that the disinfection process is complete. For example, the static disinfection time is set to 30 minutes, and after the static disinfection is completed, it is determined that the entire disinfection process is completed.

[0042] It is understandable that when disinfection is performed by a disinfectant spraying device, when it is determined that the disinfection task is completed, the disinfectant device and the fan are turned off, and the disinfectant is allowed to stand in the space for a period of time. This process allows the disinfectant in the room to fully kill viruses. During this period of time, although the disinfectant device is in a closed state, the disinfectant floating in the air and the disinfectant falling on indoor objects are still playing a disinfecting role, so that a better disinfection effect can be achieved while consuming a set amount of disinfectant.

[0043] It should be noted that when disinfection is carried out by a disinfectant spraying device, if static disinfection is not performed, the entire disinfection process is completed when the disinfection device completes the disinfection task. When disinfection is carried out by ultraviolet light, static disinfection is not required, and the entire disinfection process is completed when the disinfection device completes the disinfection task. In this case, the fresh air mode is started immediately after the disinfection device completes the disinfection task.

[0044] In step S200, if it is determined that a person has entered the room during the disinfection process, the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air, including:

[0045] Step S210, obtaining the location information of the person.

[0046] Step S220: According to the position information, the air guide assembly of the air conditioner is controlled to rotate so that the air outlet of the air conditioner supplies air in the direction where the person is located.

[0047] Specifically, the position information of the person relative to the air outlet of the air conditioner can be detected by the position detection device on the air conditioner. The air guide assembly of the air conditioner includes a horizontal swing blade assembly and / or a vertical swing blade assembly. The horizontal swing blade assembly and / or the vertical swing blade assembly of the air conditioner are controlled to deflect according to the position information, so that the fresh air blown out by the air conditioner is directed toward the position of the person, thereby reducing the concentration of disinfectant around the person, preventing the person from inhaling too much disinfectant, and reducing the impact on human health.

[0048] Furthermore, if it is determined during the disinfection process that a person has entered the room, the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air, including: controlling the fan to operate at a maximum wind speed, so that the concentration of disinfectant around the person can be reduced to a large extent by blowing fresh air, thereby improving the system's protective effect on human health.

[0049] Furthermore, the disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention also includes: if it is determined that a person has entered the room during the disinfection process, the air conditioner is controlled to issue an alarm prompt message to remind the person entering the room that the air conditioner is undergoing disinfection, and the person can choose to avoid it.

[0050] During static disinfection, the air conditioner is in a quiet state, and it is not easy for people to enter the room to notice it. In addition, during static disinfection, the concentration of disinfectant in the room is relatively high. Therefore, as an optional embodiment, it is only determined whether a person has entered the room during the static disinfection process. That is, in step S200, if it is determined that a person has entered the room during the disinfection process, the disinfection mode is controlled to be turned off and the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air, including:

[0051] Step S230, determining that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task, then controlling the disinfection device and the fan in the air conditioner to be turned off to start static disinfection.

[0052] Step S240: If it is determined that someone has entered the room during the static disinfection process, the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air.

[0053] The disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention also includes: when it is determined that the disinfection process is completed, the disinfection mode is controlled to be turned off and the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air. Specifically, when the disinfection process does not include static disinfection, it is determined that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task, and the air conditioner is controlled to start the fresh air mode to exchange fresh air. Alternatively, when the disinfection process includes static disinfection, it is determined that after the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task, the disinfection device and the fan in the air conditioner are controlled to be turned off for static disinfection and last for a first set time, and then it is determined that the disinfection process is completed, and the air conditioner is controlled to start the fresh air mode to exchange fresh air.

[0054] In this embodiment, after the disinfection process is completed, the disinfection mode is switched to the fresh air mode, and the air in the room is quickly refreshed through the fresh air system. Among them, the fresh air can be set to last for a second set time. When the air conditioner is running in the fresh air mode, if other function modes are switched, it will not affect the statistics of the historical disinfection times.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, determining that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task includes: obtaining disinfection parameters; the disinfection parameters include the spray volume of the disinfectant or the disinfection duration. Determining that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task based on the disinfection parameters. Specifically, determining that the amount of disinfectant sprayed by the disinfection device reaches the disinfectant spray volume, or determining that the working time of the disinfection device reaches the disinfection time, then determining that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task.

[0056] Specifically, when disinfection is performed by a disinfectant spraying device, when it is detected that the amount of disinfectant sprayed by the disinfectant spraying device reaches the set disinfectant spraying amount or the disinfectant spraying device continues to spray for a set disinfection time, it is determined that the disinfection task is completed. When disinfection is performed by an ultraviolet lamp, when it is detected that the working time of the ultraviolet lamp reaches the disinfection time, it is determined that the disinfection task is completed. The disinfection parameter can also be the concentration of the disinfectant in the air conditioning action space, which can be collected during the disinfection process by a disinfectant concentration detection device arranged at the air inlet of the air conditioner.

[0057] The disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention further includes: when it is determined that the disinfection mode is started, the air conditioner is controlled to turn off the function mode before the disinfection mode is started. That is, during the operation of the disinfection mode, the air conditioner suspends other function modes, such as cooling mode, heating mode, fresh air mode and other auxiliary function modes.

[0058] It should be noted that in some special cases, other function modes can also be started simultaneously in the disinfection mode. For example, when it is necessary to remove formaldehyde indoors, the heating mode of the air conditioner can be turned on at the same time to promote the release of formaldehyde in objects and improve the effect of removing formaldehyde.

[0059] The disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention further includes: determining that the disinfection mode is turned off, or determining that after the disinfection process is completed, the air conditioner is controlled to start the fresh air mode to exchange fresh air for a second set time, and then the air conditioner is controlled to resume operation in the functional mode before the disinfection mode is started. In this way, the user does not need to repeatedly switch the functional mode, which improves the intelligence of the air conditioner.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present invention, the disinfection mode can be started at any time and can also be terminated at any time. For example, after the disinfection mode is started, the disinfection mode is turned off according to the received cancellation disinfection instruction information. Alternatively, in the case where static disinfection is not included, the disinfection mode is automatically turned off after confirming that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task. Alternatively, in the case where static disinfection is included, the disinfection mode is automatically turned off after confirming that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task and the static disinfection lasts for the first set time. In these cases, it is determined that the disinfection mode is turned off, and the air conditioner is controlled to resume operation in the functional mode before the disinfection mode is started.

[0061] In some embodiments, determining that the disinfection mode is turned off includes: determining that the disinfection mode is turned off upon receiving a cancellation instruction message. Alternatively, determining that the disinfection mode is turned off upon completion of the disinfection task by the disinfection device. Alternatively, determining that the disinfection mode is turned off upon completion of the static disinfection for a first set time. If the disinfection mode is turned off before the disinfection process is completed, no disinfection is counted.

[0062] Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, after it is determined in step S200 that someone has entered the room, it is determined that someone is in the room and the duration is less than or equal to the third set time, the fresh air mode is controlled to be turned off and the disinfection mode is restarted. After it is determined in step S200 that someone has entered the room, it is determined that someone is in the room and the duration is greater than the third set time, the air conditioner is controlled to resume the function mode before the disinfection mode is started.

[0063] When the fresh air mode is started, if it is determined that the air conditioner is controlled to start the fresh air mode to exchange fresh air and last for a second set time, that is, it is confirmed that the fresh air exchange task is completed, the air conditioner is controlled to resume operation in the functional mode before the disinfection mode is started.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present invention, controlling the disinfection device to turn on in step S100 includes: determining that the disinfectant spraying device is turned on, then controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at a maximum wind speed; or determining that the ultraviolet lamp is turned on, then controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at a minimum wind speed.

[0065] In this embodiment, when disinfection is performed by a disinfectant spraying device, controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at the maximum wind speed can make the drug diffuse at the fastest speed and evenly distributed in the air conditioning action space, thereby improving the disinfection efficiency and also facilitating the effect of static disinfection. When disinfection is performed by an ultraviolet lamp, controlling the fan in the air conditioner to run at the minimum wind speed can effectively and fully disinfect the air flowing through the ultraviolet lamp irradiation area.

[0066] The disinfection air conditioning control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention also includes:

[0067] Step S300, determining the historical disinfection times based on the historical disinfection records.

[0068] Step S400, when it is determined according to the disinfection parameters that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task, the disinfection device is controlled to be turned off, the historical disinfection times are increased by 1, and the updated historical disinfection times are displayed and output. That is, when the disinfection task is completed, the disinfection device is turned off to stop disinfecting the air circulating in the air conditioner, and the air conditioner automatically accumulates and counts the historical disinfection times.

[0069] The historical disinfection times include the total disinfection times before the disinfection mode is started, and / or the disinfection times within a set period. The set period can be a period of time before the disinfection mode is started, such as 6 hours or one day or several days before the disinfection mode is started; it can also be a time period between a set start time point and an end time point, such as a time period between the start time point (0 o'clock) of the day and the end time point (24 o'clock) of the day, and the disinfection times within the set period are reset to zero at the end time point.

[0070] It should be noted that the number of historical disinfection times can be set in the system at the factory, or input into the system by the user through the display panel or terminal device of the air conditioner, or automatically recorded, counted, updated and stored in the system after the disinfection task is completed. If the current disinfection is the first disinfection after leaving the factory, the system defaults to the number of historical disinfection times as 0. In the case where the number of historical disinfection times is the number of disinfection times within a set time period, if the current disinfection is the first disinfection within the set time period, the system defaults to the number of historical disinfection times as 0, or the user sets the number of historical disinfection times to 0.

[0071] Furthermore, if it is confirmed that the disinfection device has not completed the disinfection task, the current disinfection will not be counted, and the number of historical disinfections will remain unchanged. For example, if the disinfection device is turned off due to an emergency during the disinfection process, or the user actively turns off the disinfection device, the current disinfection will not be counted.

[0072] The updated historical disinfection times can be output to the display panel on the air conditioner for display or to a terminal device connected to the air conditioner, so that users can view the historical disinfection times.

[0073] The embodiment of the present invention realizes the tracing of disinfection records by automatically updating the historical number of disinfection times through the air conditioner and displaying and outputting the historical number of disinfection times, which is convenient for users to query previous disinfection situations and formulate corresponding disinfection strategies, and is conducive to realizing standardized disinfection, avoiding the problem of incomplete disinfection affecting the disinfection effect due to differences in manual operations or excessive disinfection causing waste of manpower and material resources.

[0074] The disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes: when the disinfection process is determined to be completed, the historical disinfection times are increased by 1. When the disinfection process does not include static disinfection, when it is determined that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task, the historical disinfection times are increased by 1.

[0075] In the case where the disinfection process includes static disinfection, the above step S400 determines that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task according to the disinfection parameters, then controls the disinfection device to be turned off, and increases the historical disinfection times by 1, including:

[0076] Step S410, determining that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task, then controlling the disinfection device and the fan in the air conditioner to be turned off to start static disinfection.

[0077] Step S420: If it is determined that the static disinfection lasts for a first set time, the number of historical disinfection times is increased by 1.

[0078] In an optional embodiment, the historical disinfection record includes the historical disinfection times and the last disinfection end time. The disinfection air conditioning control method further includes: displaying and outputting the last disinfection end time. If it is determined that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task, the disinfection end time is displayed and output.

[0079] The last disinfection end time refers to the end time of the last disinfection before the current moment, which can be input into the system by the user through the display panel or terminal device of the air conditioner at the end of the last disinfection task, or it can be automatically recorded and stored in the system after the disinfection task is completed. The number of historical disinfection times and the end time of the last disinfection task can be configured to be always displayed when the air conditioner is turned on, or it can be configured to be displayed when the disinfection mode is started.

[0080] When the disinfection task is completed, the end time of the current disinfection can be displayed and output by overwriting the end time of the previous disinfection; or the end time of the previous disinfection and the end time of the current disinfection are displayed and output separately, and when the next disinfection is completed, the end time of the previous disinfection and the end time of the current disinfection are updated.

[0081] This embodiment can help users trace back the time when the last disinfection ended by displaying and outputting the time when the last disinfection ended and the time when the current disinfection ended, so as to judge the time from the current moment to the last disinfection, thereby more accurately judging whether disinfection is needed or formulating a more appropriate disinfection strategy for the current disinfection.

[0082] In an embodiment of the present invention, the historical disinfection record also includes a historical disinfection frequency. The historical disinfection frequency is the number of disinfections per unit time within a set time before the disinfection mode is started. For example, the historical disinfection frequency is the number of disinfections per hour within 6 hours or one day before the disinfection mode is started.

[0083] The disinfection air conditioner control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes: controlling the air conditioner to display and output historical disinfection records and / or the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task. That is, the disinfection air conditioner control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention also includes: controlling the air conditioner to display and output at least one of the historical disinfection frequency, the disinfection parameters of the previous disinfection task, and the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task. These historical disinfection records can be input into the system by the user through the display panel or terminal device of the air conditioner, or they can be automatically recorded and stored in the system, and can be configured to be always displayed when the air conditioner is turned on, or they can be configured to be displayed when it is determined that the disinfection mode is started.

[0084] In some optional embodiments, obtaining the disinfection parameters includes: obtaining the disinfection parameters set by the user, or obtaining the disinfection parameters of the last disinfection task.

[0085] Specifically, the disinfection parameters can be input into the system by the user through the display panel or terminal device of the air conditioner. Optionally, the system is configured with preset disinfection parameters when it leaves the factory, and the user can reset the preset disinfection parameters. The disinfection device is controlled to operate according to the disinfection parameters set by the user, so that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task set by the user. The user can reset the disinfection parameters according to the actual situation to meet the different needs of the user, thereby improving the flexibility and versatility of the air conditioner disinfection function.

[0086] Optionally, if the user does not reset the disinfection parameters, the system can automatically extract the preset disinfection parameters or the disinfection parameters of the last disinfection task. Optionally, when it is determined that the disinfection mode is activated, the system preferentially extracts the disinfection parameters set by the user. When the disinfection mode is activated for the first time or the disinfection parameters set by the user are lost due to a long power outage, the system automatically extracts the preset disinfection parameters.

[0087] In other embodiments, the obtaining of disinfection parameters includes: determining the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task according to the historical disinfection records and the disinfection parameters set by the user. Then, determining that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task according to the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task. The historical disinfection records include at least one of the number of disinfections within a set period, the historical disinfection frequency, and the end time of the last disinfection.

[0088] Among them, the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task are determined according to the number of disinfections within the set time period and the disinfection parameters set by the user. For example, when the disinfection mode is turned on, if the number of disinfections reaches 3 times, the disinfection parameters set by the user can be called as the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task. If the number of disinfections is less than 3 times, the amount of disinfectant spray or the disinfection time set by the user is appropriately increased as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task; otherwise, the amount of disinfectant spray or the disinfection time set by the user is appropriately reduced as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task.

[0089] Determine the disinfection parameters for the current disinfection task based on the historical disinfection frequency and the disinfection parameters set by the user. For example, if the disinfection frequency within the set time period before starting the disinfection mode is 0.3 times per hour, the disinfection liquid spray volume or disinfection time set by the user can be used as the disinfection parameter for the current disinfection task. If the disinfection frequency is greater than 0.3 times per hour, the disinfection liquid spray volume or disinfection time set by the user is appropriately reduced as the disinfection parameter for the current disinfection task; otherwise, the disinfection liquid spray volume or disinfection time set by the user is appropriately increased as the disinfection parameter for the current disinfection task.

[0090] Determine the disinfection parameters for the current disinfection task based on the last disinfection end time and the disinfection parameters set by the user. For example, if it is determined that the time when the current disinfection mode is turned on is 2 hours from the last disinfection end time, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration set by the user is called as the disinfection parameter for the current disinfection task. If it is determined that the time when the current disinfection mode is turned on is less than 2 hours from the last disinfection end time, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration of the current disinfection task is appropriately reduced as the disinfection parameter for the current disinfection task; otherwise, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration of the current disinfection task is appropriately increased as the disinfection parameter for the current disinfection task.

[0091] The embodiment of the present invention uses historical disinfection records as a reference for determining the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task, thereby referring to previous disinfection situations to formulate a disinfection strategy for the current disinfection task, which can further improve the flexibility and versatility of the air conditioner disinfection function.

[0092] It should be noted that some embodiments of the present invention can combine at least two of the number of disinfection times within a set period, the historical disinfection frequency, and the end time of the last disinfection with the disinfection parameters set by the user to comprehensively determine the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task, thereby making a more accurate judgment on the disinfection parameters and achieving more precise disinfection. The specific settings can be based on the actual use environment and usage requirements.

[0093] In one of the embodiments, the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task are determined based on the last disinfection end time and the historical disinfection frequency. For example, if it is determined that the time from the last disinfection end to the last disinfection end is 5 hours, and the historical disinfection frequency is 0.2 times per hour, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration set by the user is called as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task. If it is determined that the time from the last disinfection end to the last disinfection end is less than 5 hours, and the historical disinfection frequency is greater than 0.2 times per hour, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration set by the user is appropriately reduced as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task; if it is determined that the time from the last disinfection end to the last disinfection end is greater than 5 hours, and the historical disinfection frequency is less than 0.2 times per hour, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration of the last disinfection task is appropriately increased as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task.

[0094] In some embodiments of the present invention, determining that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task according to the disinfection parameters includes: determining the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task according to environmental parameters and the disinfection parameters set by the user. Then determining that the disinfection device completes the disinfection task according to the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task. Wherein, the environmental parameters include at least one of the volume and temperature of the space where the air conditioner is located.

[0095] Specifically, when the temperature of the space where the air conditioner is located is within the set temperature range, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration set by the user is called as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task. When the temperature of the space where the air conditioner is located is lower than the set temperature range, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration set by the user is appropriately increased as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task; otherwise, the disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration set by the user is reduced as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task.

[0096] When the volume of the space where the air conditioner is located is within the set volume range, the user-set disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration is used as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task. When the volume of the space where the air conditioner is located is less than the set volume range, the user-set disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration is appropriately increased as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task; otherwise, the user-set disinfectant spray volume or disinfection duration is reduced as the disinfection parameter of the current disinfection task.

[0097] The embodiment of the present invention uses environmental parameters as a reference for determining the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task and formulates a disinfection strategy for the current disinfection task, which can further improve the flexibility and versatility of the air conditioner disinfection function.

[0098] It should be noted that some embodiments of the present invention can comprehensively determine the disinfection parameters based on the volume and temperature of the space where the air conditioner is located, so as to make a more accurate judgment on the required disinfection parameters and achieve more precise disinfection.

[0099] It should be noted that some embodiments of the present invention can also combine historical disinfection records and environmental parameters to determine disinfection parameters, that is, comprehensively consider the number of disinfections within a set period of time, the historical disinfection frequency, the end time of the last disinfection, at least one of the disinfection parameters of the last disinfection task, and at least one of the volume and temperature of the space where the air conditioner is located, to determine the disinfection parameters of the current disinfection task, which can be set specifically according to the actual use environment and usage requirements.

[0100] In an embodiment of the present invention, if the disinfection mode is started as described in step S100, the disinfection device is controlled to be turned on, including: obtaining the remaining amount of disinfectant in the disinfection device, determining that the remaining amount of disinfectant is greater than the spray amount of disinfectant, and then controlling the disinfection device to be turned on; otherwise, controlling the air conditioner to output insufficient storage prompt information.

[0101] Specifically, after the disinfection mode is started, if it is detected that the remaining amount of disinfectant in the disinfectant spraying device is not greater than the spraying amount of the disinfectant, that is, it is insufficient to complete the current disinfection task, the disinfectant spraying device will not be turned on, and the air conditioner display will be controlled to output an alarm prompt message of insufficient remaining amount, or the air conditioner will be controlled to output an alarm prompt message of insufficient remaining amount to the user terminal interconnected with the air conditioner. If the user replenishes the disinfectant in time and it is detected that the remaining amount of disinfectant is greater than the spraying amount of the disinfectant, the disinfectant spraying device will be turned on to perform the disinfection task.

[0102] The disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention further includes: if it is determined that the disinfection device is turned on, the air conditioner is controlled to output the disinfection prompt voice cyclically at a set time interval. If it is determined that the disinfection mode is turned off, the air conditioner is controlled to terminate the execution of the disinfection prompt voice cyclically outputting at the set time interval.

[0103] It is understandable that when the disinfection device is turned on, the disinfection work has begun. In this case, a disinfection prompt voice is output, such as a "disinfection" voice is broadcast cyclically every 3 minutes. After hearing the voice prompt, people entering the air-conditioning space can choose to avoid or turn off the disinfection mode. When the disinfection mode is turned off, such as manually turning off the disinfection mode, or automatically turning off the disinfection mode after the disinfection device completes the disinfection task, or automatically turning off the disinfection mode after the static disinfection continues for the first set time, the broadcast of the disinfection prompt voice is terminated.

[0104] The disinfection air conditioning control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0105] When it is determined that the disinfection mode is started, the disinfection module is controlled to be turned on, so that the disinfection module disinfects the air circulating through the air conditioner, and enters the disinfection process.

[0106] Control the air conditioner to cyclically output disinfection reminder voice at set time intervals.

[0107] When it is determined that the disinfection process is completed, the disinfection mode is controlled to be turned off and the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air, and the output of the disinfection prompt voice is terminated.

[0108] It is understandable that the disinfection reminder voice is broadcasted cyclically at set time intervals throughout the disinfection process of the air conditioner. In the case where static disinfection is not included, the disinfection reminder voice is broadcasted cyclically until the disinfection device completes the disinfection task. In the case where static disinfection is included, the disinfection reminder voice is broadcasted cyclically until the static disinfection is completed.

[0109] This embodiment cyclically outputs a disinfection reminder voice during the disinfection process of the air conditioner to remind people entering the room that the air conditioner is being disinfected. People can choose to avoid it, which can prevent human activities from affecting the normal disinfection work of the air conditioner, and is conducive to ensuring that the air conditioner completes the disinfection process normally. After completing the disinfection process, the fresh air mode is started to exchange fresh air to accelerate the renewal of indoor air, which allows users to return to activities in the room as soon as possible, thereby reducing the mutual influence between the disinfection work of the air conditioner and the user's activities.

[0110] The disinfection air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention also includes: obtaining cancellation disinfection instruction information; controlling the disinfection mode to be turned off according to the cancellation disinfection instruction information, and terminating the output of the disinfection prompt voice. Specifically, after the disinfection mode is started and before the disinfection process is completed, the user can turn off the disinfection mode at any time. When the user receives the cancellation disinfection instruction information sent by the remote control or mobile terminal, the air conditioner is controlled to turn off the disinfection mode, and the execution of the cyclic output of the disinfection prompt voice at the set time interval is terminated.

[0111] In the embodiment of the present invention, before determining in step S100 that the disinfection mode is started, the method further includes:

[0112] Step S001, determine that the scheduled disinfection function is started, and obtain the scheduled disinfection time.

[0113] Step S002, determining that the scheduled disinfection time has arrived, and then starting the disinfection mode.

[0114] Specifically, the system has a timed disinfection function, and the user can set the timed disinfection time independently through the air conditioner display panel or terminal device. If the timed disinfection function is activated, the disinfection mode will be automatically started for disinfection when the scheduled disinfection time is reached; if the timed disinfection function is turned off, the disinfection mode cannot be started on time.

[0115] The user can start or stop the scheduled disinfection function in the system. If a command message to cancel the scheduled disinfection is received before the scheduled disinfection time arrives, the scheduled disinfection function will be turned off, the air conditioner will not start disinfection at the scheduled disinfection time, and the number of disinfections will not be recorded.

[0116] In the embodiment of the present invention, the step S100 of determining that the disinfection mode is started and then controlling the disinfection device to start includes:

[0117] Step S110, determining that the disinfection mode is activated, then starting the disinfection countdown, and controlling the air conditioner to output a disinfection countdown prompt voice.

[0118] Step S120, determining that the disinfection countdown is over, then controlling the disinfection device to start.

[0119] Specifically, the disinfection mode includes a disinfection countdown function, and the countdown duration can be set in the system at the factory, or input into the system by the user through the display panel or terminal device of the air conditioner. If the timed disinfection function is activated, the disinfection countdown begins, and the disinfection mode is automatically started for disinfection after the countdown is completed. During the countdown process, the disinfection mode can be turned off at any time, for example, according to the received cancellation instruction information. In this case, the disinfection is not counted, and the air conditioner is controlled to resume operation in the functional mode before the disinfection mode is started.

[0120] Among them, when the reminder of insufficient remaining disinfectant is given, the disinfectant can be replenished in time during the countdown time. If it is detected that the remaining disinfectant is sufficient at the end of the countdown, the disinfection device is turned on to perform the disinfection task; otherwise, the disinfection device is not turned on.

[0121] The control process of the disinfection air conditioner is described below in conjunction with a specific embodiment. A disinfection device is configured in the air conditioner, and a disinfection mode and a fresh air mode are set in the air conditioner control system.

[0122] Enter the display interface of the disinfection mode to view the historical number of disinfections and the end time of the last disinfection. By default, there is a disinfection requirement every day, and the time is displayed in 24-hour format and to the minute. If there is no disinfection on the day, the number of disinfections is "00", and the disinfection time is displayed as "00:00". The number of disinfections is accumulated from 00 and reset at zero every day. Enter the control interface of the disinfection mode, and set the scheduled disinfection, such as setting four specific time points in a day to start the disinfection mode for disinfection.

[0123] After starting the disinfection mode and before turning on the disinfection device, if the amount of disinfectant in the disinfectant spraying device is less than the set value, it will prompt that the amount of disinfectant is insufficient, and the disinfection function will be locked, that is, the disinfection spraying device will be prohibited from being turned on. The set value is the amount that can be used for one disinfection. If the user replenishes the disinfectant in time and the amount of disinfectant is not less than the set value, the disinfection function will be unlocked and disinfection can be performed.

[0124] Start the disinfection mode, start the countdown for 1 minute, and broadcast the voice message "disinfection in 1 minute", which personnel can choose to avoid. During the countdown, if you do not want to disinfect, you can cancel the disinfection and control the disinfection mode to turn off. The disinfection is not completed this time, and the number of disinfections is not counted. The air conditioner switches to the function mode executed before the disinfection mode is started. If the disinfection is not canceled, when the countdown time is reached, the disinfection device is turned on, the disinfection parameters are adjusted, other function modes are suspended, and the voice prompt "disinfection" is broadcast every 3 minutes.

[0125] If the disinfection device turned on is a disinfectant spray device, call the set disinfectant spray volume parameters, lock the disinfectant spray volume setting function, and control the air conditioner fan to run at the maximum wind speed. If the disinfection device turned on is an ultraviolet lamp, call the set disinfection time parameters, lock the disinfection time setting function, and control the air conditioner fan to run at the minimum wind speed.

[0126] Among them, the control interface of entering the disinfection mode resets the disinfection parameters. If the user does not reset, the disinfection device is controlled to operate according to the disinfection parameters configured at the factory. After the disinfection device is turned on, the disinfection parameters cannot be reset. The system defaults to the disinfection parameters used for the last disinfection. When the disinfection mode is used for the first time or the disinfection parameters set by the user are lost, the disinfection device is controlled to operate according to the disinfection parameters configured at the factory.

[0127] During the operation of the disinfection device, if you do not want to disinfect, you can cancel the disinfection and control the disinfection mode to be turned off. The disinfection is not completed this time, and the number of disinfections is not counted. The voice prompt "disinfection" is stopped and the air conditioner switches to the function mode executed before the disinfection mode is started. If the disinfection is not canceled, when the amount of disinfectant sprayed by the disinfectant spraying device reaches the set disinfectant spraying amount, or the duration of the ultraviolet light emitting by the ultraviolet lamp reaches the set disinfection duration, it is determined that the disinfection device has completed the disinfection task, and the disinfectant spraying device and the fan are controlled to be turned off.

[0128] If the disinfectant spraying device is turned on, after the disinfection task is completed, static disinfection will be started for 30 minutes to allow the disinfectant in the room to fully kill viruses. During the 30-minute static disinfection, if you do not want to disinfect, you can cancel the disinfection and control the disinfection mode to turn off. The disinfection is not completed this time, the number of disinfections will not be counted, the cyclic voice prompt "disinfection" will be stopped, and the air conditioner will switch to the function mode executed before the disinfection mode is started. If the disinfection is not canceled, when the 30-minute static disinfection is confirmed to be completed, the historical disinfection times will be increased by 1, and the disinfection end time will be recorded, the cyclic voice prompt "disinfection" will be stopped, and the fresh air mode will be started at the same time, and the fresh air will be replaced for 30 minutes. If the ultraviolet light is turned on, when the disinfection task is confirmed to be completed, the historical disinfection times will be increased by 1, and the disinfection end time will be recorded, the cyclic voice prompt "disinfection" will be stopped, and the fresh air mode will be started at the same time, and the fresh air will be replaced for 30 minutes. When it is confirmed that the 30-minute fresh air replacement is completed, the air conditioner switches to the function mode executed before the disinfection mode is started. During the fresh air replacement process, any switching of the air conditioner function mode will not affect the disinfection record.
