[0109] The specific embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0110] Figure 1 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the method is used in an air conditioner and includes the following steps.

[0111] In step S101, in response to receiving a power-on instruction for an air conditioner, a standby time of the air conditioner is acquired.

[0112] The standby time is the time between the current time and the last time the air conditioner was turned on.

[0113] In this embodiment, the standby time refers to the time when the air conditioner is not turned on. It should be noted that the standby time can be the time when the air conditioner is not connected to the power supply, and the standby time can also be the time when the air conditioner is in the standby state, where the standby state is the state in which the air conditioner remains powered on but not running.

[0114] In a possible implementation, obtaining the standby time of the air conditioner may include: calculating the time interval between the current time of the air conditioner and the last time the air conditioner was turned on; and using the time interval as the standby time of the air conditioner.

[0115] In this embodiment, the power-on command may be sent through the air conditioner remote control, the power-on command may be sent through a mobile device, or the power-on command may be sent by a third-party device such as a cloud air conditioner service platform, and this embodiment does not specifically limit this. Among them, the mobile device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a display, or other device with a control function, on which a communication connection with the air conditioner can be achieved through a specific application (Application, APP); for example, the air conditioner is provided with a Bluetooth module or other wireless communication module to achieve a communication connection with the mobile device, and this embodiment does not limit the specific connection method.

[0116] In step S102, target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the standby time.

[0117] In this embodiment, the target operating parameters include any one or more of the following: operating mode, temperature, humidity, air volume, and air supply mode. In a possible implementation, the air supply mode includes: up and down wind or left and right wind. In a possible implementation, the air supply mode also includes: natural wind, circulating wind, fresh air, no wind feeling, etc.

[0118] In this embodiment, the target operating parameters may be operating parameters pre-set under different operating modes, the target operating parameters may be operating parameters last set by the user under different operating modes, or the target operating parameters may be parameters updated based on historical operating data of the air conditioner. This embodiment does not make any specific limitations on this.

[0119] In a possible implementation, the target operating parameter is an operating parameter corresponding to the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located, wherein the operating season information is a cooling season or a heating season.

[0120] In a possible implementation, the target operating parameter is a parameter that is run most frequently among historical operating parameters of the air conditioner in a certain operating mode.

[0121] In a possible implementation, the target operating parameter is the operating parameter of the air conditioner during the last operation.

[0122] In a possible implementation, the target operating parameter is an operating parameter corresponding to an environmental parameter, wherein the environmental parameter includes an indoor environmental parameter and / or an outdoor environmental parameter; the indoor environmental parameter includes at least an indoor temperature, and the outdoor environmental parameter includes at least an outdoor temperature.

[0123] In step S103, the air conditioner is controlled to operate according to the target operating parameters.

[0124] In a possible implementation, step S103 includes: controlling the operation of the compressor of the air conditioner according to at least one of the operation mode, temperature, humidity, air volume, and air supply mode.

[0125] In a possible implementation, after step S103, the method may further include: receiving an adjustment instruction for the target operating parameter; storing the adjusted operating parameter or sending the adjusted operating parameter to a third-party device. The third-party device may be a mobile device that sends a power-on instruction, or may be another database, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0126] By adopting the above method, when the user does not turn on the air conditioner for a long time and the season changes, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner can be determined according to the standby time of the air conditioner. This ensures that the user does not need to manually change the operating parameters of the air conditioner after turning it on again when the user has not turned on the air conditioner for a long time, making the air conditioner more intelligent and improving the user experience.

[0127] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0128] In step S201, in response to receiving a power-on instruction for the air conditioner, when the location information and network time of the air conditioner are obtained from the server and the air conditioner is not turned on for the first time, the standby time of the air conditioner is obtained.

[0129] In this embodiment, the location information of the air conditioner includes the region where the air conditioner is installed, or the longitude and latitude information of the air conditioner installation location.

[0130] In this embodiment, the network time of the air conditioner can be the time directly obtained by the air conditioner from a third-party device, or the network time of the air conditioner can be calculated by the air conditioner's own timing function based on the time last obtained from the third-party device and the offline duration, wherein the offline duration is the duration during which the location information and network time of the air conditioner are not obtained; the third-party device can be a mobile device that sends a power-on instruction, or the third-party device can also be a server that can obtain the time corresponding to the location where the air conditioner is installed, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment. For example, the air conditioner obtains the location information and network time from the mobile device that sends the power-on instruction through the Internet of Things, or the air conditioner obtains the location information and network time from the cloud air conditioning server platform.

[0131] Optionally, after the air conditioner establishes a network connection with a third-party device, the air conditioner will obtain the network time and store it in its own memory chip or send it to the third-party device.

[0132] In a possible implementation, obtaining the standby time may include: calculating the time interval between the network time obtained from the server to the air conditioner and the last power-on time; and using the time interval as the standby time of the air conditioner.

[0133] In step S202, when the standby time is greater than or equal to the first time threshold, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the location information and the network time.

[0134] In this embodiment, the first duration threshold may be a specific time period, or a time range, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment. For example, the first duration threshold may be greater than or equal to 45 days.

[0135] In some embodiments, determining the target operating parameters of the air conditioner according to the location information and the network time in step S202 includes:

[0136] Determine the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located according to the location information and network time;

[0137] Determine the target operating parameters of the air conditioner based on the operating season information.

[0138] The operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located is the cooling season or the heating season.

[0139] It should be noted that the operating season information corresponds to the operating mode of the air conditioner one-to-one. For example, when the operating season information is the cooling season, the operating mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode; when the operating season information is the heating season, the operating mode of the air conditioner is the heating mode.

[0140] In this embodiment, the target operating parameters include the operating mode corresponding to the operating season information and multiple operating parameters in the operating mode. For example, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner corresponding to the cooling season include: the cooling mode and multiple operating parameters of the cooling mode.

[0141] In this way, the air conditioner determines the operating season information through location information and network time, and recommends different cooling and heating seasons to users based on regional differences.

[0142] In some embodiments, determining the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located according to the location information and the network time includes:

[0143] Acquire a first corresponding relationship corresponding to the location information; wherein the first corresponding relationship is a corresponding relationship between different times and operating seasons;

[0144] According to the network time, the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located is determined through the first corresponding relationship.

[0145] The location information of the air conditioner includes the region where the air conditioner is installed, and the longitude and latitude information of the location where the air conditioner is installed.

[0146] In this embodiment, obtaining the first correspondence corresponding to the location information may include: sending a request carrying the location information to a third-party device, and obtaining the correspondence between different times and recommended operating season information returned by the third-party device; accordingly, determining the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located through the first correspondence based on the network time includes: obtaining the recommended operating season information from the correspondence between different times and the recommended operating season information based on the network time, and using the recommended operating season information as the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located.

[0147] In a possible implementation, the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located may also include the plum rain season or the haze season. It is understandable that some cities will have a long "plum rain season" with continuous rain from mid-June to early and mid-July each year, and some cities will easily experience haze from November to March each year due to heating, stable atmospheric boundary layer structure and low mixing layer height. Therefore, the air conditioner determines whether the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located is the plum rain season or the haze season based on the location information of the installation location and the network time.

[0148] In a possible implementation, step S202 may also include: when the standby time is greater than or equal to the first time threshold, obtaining weather forecast information for the location where the air conditioner is installed, the weather forecast information including: maximum temperature, minimum temperature, perceived temperature, clothing index, wind speed, and humidity; and determining the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located based on the weather forecast information.

[0149] In this way, different operation modes are recommended to the user according to the obtained operation season information, making the recommendation method of the air conditioner more intelligent.

[0150] In some embodiments, determining the target operating parameters of the air conditioner according to the operating season information includes:

[0151] When the operation mode corresponding to the operation season information is not executed for the first time, the designated operation parameter corresponding to the air conditioner in the operation mode is used as the target operation parameter, and the designated operation parameter is the parameter with the largest number of operation times in the historical operation parameters of the air conditioner in the operation mode; or

[0152] When the operation mode corresponding to the operation season information is executed for the first time, the first preset operation parameter of the air conditioner in the operation mode is used as the target operation parameter.

[0153] It should be noted that the historical operating parameters are different parameters under the same operating mode, and the historical operating parameters include any one or more of the following: temperature, humidity, air volume, and air supply mode.

[0154] In one possible implementation, the designated operating parameters corresponding to the air conditioner in the operating mode are used as the target operating parameters, including: obtaining multiple historical operating parameters under the operating mode and the number of operations corresponding to the multiple historical operating parameters; sorting the multiple historical operating parameters from large to small according to the number of operations; and using the historical operating parameter ranked first as the designated operating parameter corresponding to the operating mode.

[0155] Taking the cooling mode as an example, when the cooling mode is not executed for the first time, the parameters with the most operations in the historical operating parameters of the air conditioner in the cooling mode are: 25℃, maximum air volume, and circulating air; then, 25℃, maximum air volume, and circulating air are used as the corresponding designated operating parameters in the cooling mode.

[0156] In a possible implementation, the first preset operating parameter may be an operating parameter set by default when the air conditioner leaves the factory.

[0157] For example, when the operating mode corresponding to the operating season information is executed for the first time, the first preset standard operating parameters corresponding to the cooling mode include 26°C, automatic air volume, and natural wind; the first preset standard operating parameters corresponding to the heating mode include 26°C, automatic air volume, and natural wind.

[0158] In a possible implementation, the control method of the air conditioner further includes: when the running time of a certain running mode is greater than or equal to a third duration threshold, recording the running parameters corresponding to the running mode in the working calendar of the air conditioner; wherein the third duration threshold is less than the first duration threshold, and the working calendar includes the current time of the air conditioner, the running mode of the air conditioner, and the running parameters of the air conditioner in the running mode. Accordingly, taking the designated running parameters corresponding to the running mode of the air conditioner as the target running parameters includes: obtaining multiple historical running parameters corresponding to the running mode from the working calendar of the air conditioner, and determining the historical running parameters with the most running times as the target running parameters.

[0159] For example, the third duration threshold is 0.5 hours. On May 1, the user uses the air conditioner for cooling. If the running time of the cooling mode is greater than or equal to 0.5 hours, the temperature, humidity, air volume, and air supply mode corresponding to the cooling mode are recorded in the work calendar of May 1. When it is necessary to obtain a specified operating parameter as a target operating parameter, the parameter with the most cooling mode running times is searched in the work calendar.

[0160] In this way, during the use of the air conditioner, by storing the manual settings made by the user on the air conditioner at different times, the user's usage preferences under different operating modes can be recorded, which is conducive to providing the user with more intelligent choices.

[0161] In some embodiments, the above method may further include: when the standby time is less than a first time threshold, using the operating parameters of the air conditioner during the last operation as the target operating parameters.

[0162] In this embodiment, the operation parameter of the last operation refers to the parameter with the smallest time interval between the operation time and the current time among the historical operation parameters.

[0163] In step S203, the air conditioner is controlled to operate according to the target operating parameters.

[0164] Accordingly, the implementation of step S203 may refer to the embodiment of step S103, which will not be described in detail here.

[0165] By using the above method, when the air conditioner has not been turned on for a long time and needs to be replaced seasonally, the operating season information of the air conditioner can be determined by obtaining the location information and network time from the server, and the recommended operating parameters can be used according to the operating season information, thereby providing users with a personalized usage experience.

[0166] Figure 3 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 3 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0167] In step S301, in response to receiving a power-on instruction for an air conditioner, a standby time of the air conditioner is acquired.

[0168] The standby time is the time between the current time and the last time the air conditioner was turned on.

[0169] Accordingly, the implementation of step S301 may refer to the embodiment of step S201 and will not be described in detail here.

[0170] In step S302, when the location information and network time of the air conditioner are obtained from the server and the air conditioner is turned on for the first time, the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located is obtained according to the location information and the network time.

[0171] In a possible implementation, in step S302, the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located is obtained based on the location information and the network time, including: receiving recommended operating season information sent by a third-party device that is determined based on the location information and the network time; and using the recommended operating season information as the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located.

[0172] In a possible implementation, obtaining the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located based on the location information and network time in step S302 may also include: determining the weather forecast information of the installation location of the air conditioner based on the location information and network time, the weather forecast information including: maximum temperature, minimum temperature, perceived temperature, clothing index, wind speed, and humidity; determining the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located based on the weather forecast information.

[0173] In a possible implementation, obtaining the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located based on the location information and the network time in step S302 may also include: obtaining the default operating season relationship corresponding to the location information; wherein the default operating season relationship includes the correspondence between different time periods and the default operating season, and the default operating season relationship is set when the air conditioner leaves the factory; determining the time period in which the network time is located; and determining the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located based on the time period in which the network time is located and the default operating season relationship.

[0174] Exemplarily, the default operating season relationship obtained is: the default operating season from May to September of each year is the cooling season, and the default operating season from October to April of each year is the cooling season. Then, when the air conditioner is turned on for the first time, if the network time obtained from the server is October 10, the time period of the network time is from October to April, and therefore, the determined operating season information is the cooling season.

[0175] In step S303, target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the operating season information.

[0176] In some embodiments, step S303 includes: determining the operation mode corresponding to the operation season information; and using the first preset operation parameter in the operation mode as the target operation parameter. The first preset operation parameter may be the operation parameter set by default when the air conditioner leaves the factory.

[0177] For example, when the operating mode corresponding to the operating season information is executed for the first time, the first preset standard operating parameters corresponding to the cooling mode include 26°C, automatic air volume, and natural wind; the first preset standard operating parameters corresponding to the heating mode include 26°C, automatic air volume, and natural wind.

[0178] In step S304, the air conditioner is controlled to operate according to the target operating parameters.

[0179] Accordingly, the implementation of step S304 may refer to the embodiment of step S103, which will not be described in detail here.

[0180] By adopting the above method, when the air conditioner is turned on for the first time, the recommended operating parameters can be obtained through the location information and network time, without the need for manual changes by the user, thereby improving the user experience.

[0181] Figure 4 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 4 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0182] In step S401, when the location information and network time of the air conditioner are not obtained from the server, the power-on duration of the air conditioner is obtained.

[0183] In this embodiment, the power-on duration refers to the length of time during which the air conditioner is powered on.

[0184] In step S402, in response to receiving a power-on instruction for the air conditioner, the standby time of the air conditioner is obtained according to the power-on time.

[0185] The standby time is the time between the current time and the last time the air conditioner was turned on.

[0186] In some embodiments, obtaining the standby time of the air conditioner according to the power-on time in step S402 includes: obtaining the standby time of the air conditioner when the power-on time is greater than or equal to a preset power-on time.

[0187] Exemplarily, the preset power-on time may be greater than or equal to one year. It is understandable that when the air conditioner is continuously powered on for more than one year, the user's manual setting data for the air conditioner within this year can be fully recorded, and the cooling season or heating season within a year cycle can be determined based on the setting data within this year, and the cooling season or heating season within a year cycle can be used as a reference for the operating season information of the next year.

[0188] In other embodiments, obtaining the standby time of the air conditioner according to the power-on time in step S402 includes: when the power-on time is less than the preset power-on time and the air conditioner is not turned on for the first time, obtaining the standby time of the air conditioner.

[0189] In step S403, target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the standby time.

[0190] In some embodiments, step S403 includes:

[0191] When the standby time is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, obtaining operation season information corresponding to different time periods in the historical operation cycle, and the historical operation cycle is less than or equal to the preset power-on time period;

[0192] According to the power-on time, determine the time period corresponding to the current time of the air conditioner in the historical operation cycle;

[0193] According to the time period, determine the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located;

[0194] The target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located.

[0195] The second duration threshold may be the same as the first duration threshold, or may be different from the first duration threshold.

[0196] Optionally, the historical operation cycle may be a time period from when the air conditioner is first powered on to when the accumulated power-on time meets a fourth time threshold; wherein the fourth time threshold is a positive integer multiple of one year. In practical applications, for the convenience of calculation, the fourth time threshold is set to one year, that is, the historical operation cycle may be a time period when the air conditioner is powered on for a full year.

[0197] In this embodiment, the operating season information corresponding to different time periods in the historical operating cycle is obtained based on the historical operating data of the air conditioner. The historical operating data includes different operating modes and historical operating parameters under different operating modes; the historical operating parameters are different parameters under the same operating mode, and the historical operating parameters include any one or more of the following: temperature, humidity, air volume, and air supply mode.

[0198] In a possible implementation, when the standby time is greater than or equal to the second time threshold in step S403, before obtaining the operating season information corresponding to different time periods in the historical operating cycle, the control method of the above-mentioned air conditioner may also include: dividing the historical operating cycle into multiple preset time periods; for each preset time period, determining the operating season information corresponding to the preset time period according to the operating mode with the largest number of operations within the preset time period; determining the operating season information corresponding to the historical operating cycle according to multiple preset time periods and the operating season information corresponding to the multiple preset time periods.

[0199] For example, the historical operation cycle is the time period of one year when the air conditioner is powered on, and the preset time period is 10 days. Every 10 days after the air conditioner is powered on for the first time is divided into a preset time period. For every 10 days, if the operation mode with the most operation times in these 10 days is heating, the operation season information corresponding to these 10 days is determined as the heating season; if the operation mode with the most operation times in these 10 days is cooling, the operation season information corresponding to these 10 days is determined as the cooling season.

[0200] In a possible implementation, only the operation modes whose operation time is greater than or equal to a third time threshold value in each preset time period may be counted, wherein the third time threshold value is 0.5 hours.

[0201] In a possible implementation, determining the time period corresponding to the current time of the air conditioner in the historical operating cycle based on the power-on duration in S403 includes: when the power-on duration is less than N times the historical operating cycle, calculating the time interval between the power-on duration and the historical operating cycle; determining the kth preset time period to which the time interval belongs in the historical operating cycle; determining the kth preset time period as the time period corresponding to the current time of the air conditioner in the historical operating cycle; N and k are both positive integers N, and N is greater than or equal to 2.

[0202] Taking the historical operation cycle of one year and the preset time period of 10 days as an example, when the power-on time is one year and three days, the three-day time interval is compared with one year to determine that the preset time period to which the current time belongs is the first preset time period in the historical operation cycle. Therefore, the current time of the air conditioner is the first time period corresponding to the historical operation cycle.

[0203] In a possible implementation, in S403, the time period corresponding to the current time of the air conditioner in the historical operating cycle is determined based on the power-on duration, and also includes: when the power-on duration is greater than or equal to N times the historical operating cycle, calculating the time interval between the power-on duration and N times the historical operating cycle; determining the kth preset time period to which the time interval belongs in the historical operating cycle; determining the kth preset time period as the time period corresponding to the current time of the air conditioner in the historical operating cycle; N and k are both positive integers N, and N is greater than or equal to 2.

[0204] Taking the historical operation cycle as one year and the preset time period as 10 days as an example, when the power-on time is two years and one month, subtract two years from the power-on time to get a time interval of one month. Compare this time interval with one year to determine that the preset time period to which the current time belongs is the third preset time period in the historical operation cycle. Therefore, the current time of the air conditioner is the third time period corresponding to the historical operation cycle.

[0205] In a possible implementation, in S403, the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located is determined according to the time period, including: determining the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located by using the operating season information corresponding to the kth preset time period in the historical operating cycle.

[0206] In a possible implementation, in S403, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located, and also include: using the designated operating parameters corresponding to the operating mode of the air conditioner corresponding to the operating season information as the target operating parameters.

[0207] In a possible implementation, the implementation of determining the target operating parameters of the air conditioner according to the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located in S403 can refer to the embodiment of step S303, which will not be repeated here.

[0208] In a possible implementation, the control method of the air conditioner further includes: for each preset time period, determining the operating parameter with the most operation times in the preset time period as the historical operating parameter corresponding to the preset time period. Accordingly, step S403 further includes: when the standby time is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, determining the time period corresponding to the current time of the air conditioner in the historical operation cycle according to the power-on time; and determining the target operating parameter of the air conditioner using the historical operation data corresponding to the time period.

[0209] Through the above method, during the operation of the air conditioner, the target temperature, sweeping status, and wind speed that the user prefers to set in the same mode are recorded, which serve as a reference for the recommended operating mode, set temperature, sweeping status, and wind speed in the same period of time in subsequent years, thereby realizing personalized recommendation of the operating mode.

[0210] In some other embodiments, step S403 includes:

[0211] When the standby time is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, obtaining environmental parameters of the air conditioner;

[0212] According to the environmental parameters, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined through a second corresponding relationship, and the second corresponding relationship includes a corresponding relationship between the environmental parameter range and the operating parameters.

[0213] The environmental parameters include indoor environmental parameters and / or outdoor environmental parameters; the indoor environmental parameters at least include indoor temperature, and the outdoor environmental parameters at least include outdoor temperature.

[0214] In a possible implementation, the environmental parameters may also include humidity, and both temperature and humidity are acquired through different sensors disposed on the outdoor unit and the indoor unit.

[0215] In a possible implementation, the control method of the air conditioner further includes: dividing the environmental parameters into a plurality of preset environmental parameter ranges; determining the historical operation data with the most operation times within each preset environmental parameter range; determining a second corresponding relationship based on the plurality of preset environmental parameter ranges and the historical operation data with the most operation times within the plurality of preset environmental parameter ranges. Accordingly, according to the environmental parameters, the target operation parameters of the air conditioner are determined through the second corresponding relationship, including determining the environmental parameter range to which the environmental parameters belong; and determining the operation parameters corresponding to the environmental parameter range as the target operation parameters.

[0216] Taking the environmental parameters including outdoor temperature as an example, the outdoor temperature is divided into 0 to 5 degrees Celsius and 30 to 35 degrees. The operating parameters with the most operation times within the environmental parameter range of 0 to 5 degrees Celsius are: heating mode, 26℃, automatic air volume, natural wind; the operating parameters with the most operation times within the environmental parameter range of 30 to 35 degrees are: cooling mode, 26℃, automatic air volume, natural wind; the corresponding relationship determined according to these two environmental parameter ranges is: when the outdoor temperature is between 0 and 5 degrees Celsius, the target operating parameters are heating mode, 26℃, automatic air volume, natural wind; when the outdoor temperature is between 30 to 35 degrees, the target parameters are cooling mode, 26℃, automatic air volume, natural wind.

[0217] In this way, when the location information and network time of the air conditioner cannot be obtained, and the user's setting data from the previous year cannot be obtained as a reference, and the air conditioner has not been turned on for a long time, the startup operating parameters that users commonly choose in historical outdoor and indoor environments can be referred to to recommend operating parameters for the user.

[0218] In a possible implementation, step S403 further includes:

[0219] When the standby time is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, obtaining the indoor ambient temperature and the outdoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner;

[0220] When the indoor environment temperature is greater than the outdoor environment temperature, determining that the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located is the heating season;

[0221] When the indoor environment temperature is lower than the outdoor environment temperature, the operating season information of the environment where the air conditioner is located is determined to be the cooling season;

[0222] The target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the operating season information of the environment in which the air conditioner is located.

[0223] In a possible implementation, when the indoor ambient temperature is equal to the outdoor ambient temperature, the target operating parameter of the air conditioner is determined by the second corresponding relationship.

[0224] In other embodiments, when the standby time is less than the second time threshold, the operating parameters of the air conditioner during the last operation are used as the target operating parameters.

[0225] In some embodiments, when the standby time is less than the second time threshold, the operating parameters of the air conditioner's last operation are used as the target operating parameters.

[0226] In other embodiments, when the power-on time is less than the preset power-on time and the air conditioner is turned on for the first time, the second preset operating parameter is used as the target operating parameter; and the operation of the air conditioner is controlled according to the target operating parameter.

[0227] The second preset parameter may be the same as the first parameter, or may be different from the first parameter, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0228] For example, when the operating season information is the cooling season, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are cooling mode, 26°C, automatic air volume, and natural wind; when the operating season information is the heating season, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are heating mode, 26°C, automatic air volume, and natural wind.

[0229] For example, when the operating season information is the cooling season, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are cooling mode, 25°C, maximum air volume, and circulating air; when the operating season information is the heating season, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are heating mode, 26°C, minimum air volume, and no wind.

[0230] For example, when the operating season information is the rainy season, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are dehumidification mode, 23°C, maximum air volume, and up and down wind; when the operating season information is the haze season, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are haze removal mode, maximum air volume, and fresh air.

[0231] In step S404, the air conditioner is controlled to operate according to the target operating parameters.

[0232] Accordingly, the implementation of step S404 may refer to the embodiment of step S103, which will not be described in detail here.

[0233] By adopting the above method, when the location information and network time of the air conditioner cannot be obtained from the server, the target operating parameters of the air conditioner are determined according to the power-on time and the standby time, so that the air conditioner can determine the operating parameters that best meet the user's needs even when it is not connected to the Internet, providing users with an intelligent user experience and realizing personalized recommendations for operating modes.

[0234] Figure 5 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment. The method is applied to an air conditioner, such as Figure 5 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0235] In step S501, in response to receiving a power-on instruction for the air conditioner, it is determined whether the air conditioner is connected to the network during power-on.

[0236] For example, when the air conditioner can obtain its own location information and network time from the server, it is determined that the air conditioner is connected to the network during the power-on period.

[0237] When the air conditioner is connected to the network during power-on, step S502 is executed.

[0238] When the air conditioner is not connected to the network during power-on, step S506 is executed.

[0239] In step S502, it is determined whether the air conditioner is turned on for the first time.

[0240] When the air conditioner is turned on for the first time, step S5032 is executed.

[0241] When the air conditioner is not turned on for the first time, step S5031 is executed.

[0242] In step S5031, the network time of the air conditioner is obtained and the standby time of the air conditioner is calculated.

[0243] For example, it refers to the length of time that the air conditioner is not turned on.

[0244] In step S5032, the network time is obtained.

[0245] In step S504, it is determined whether the standby time is greater than T.

[0246] Optionally, T equals 45 days.

[0247] When the standby time is longer than T, execute step S5052.

[0248] When the standby time is less than or equal to T, execute step S5051.

[0249] In step S5051, the operation mode in which the air conditioner was last operated is operated.

[0250] In step S5052, the operating season of the air conditioner is determined according to the network time.

[0251] In step S506, it is determined whether the power-on time of the air conditioner is less than one year.

[0252] When the power-on time of the air conditioner is less than one year, execute step S5071.

[0253] When the power-on time of the air conditioner is greater than or equal to one year, execute step S5072.

[0254] In step S5071, the annual cycle data of the air conditioner is determined.

[0255] For example, the annual cycle data refers to the setting data of the air conditioner in the previous year, and the cooling season or the heating season of the air conditioner in a year cycle can be determined based on the setting data in the previous year.

[0256] In step S508, it is determined whether the standby time of the air conditioner is greater than T.

[0257] When the standby time of the air conditioner is greater than T, execute step S5091.

[0258] When the standby time of the air conditioner is less than or equal to T, execute step S5092.

[0259] In step S5091, the operating season of the air conditioner is determined based on the annual cycle data of the air conditioner.

[0260] In step S5092, the operation mode in which the air conditioner was last operated is operated.

[0261] In step S5072, it is determined whether the air conditioner is turned on for the first time.

[0262] When the air conditioner is turned on for the first time, step S5101 is executed.

[0263] When the air conditioner is not turned on for the first time, step S5102 is executed.

[0264] In step S5101, it is determined whether the standby time of the air conditioner is greater than T.

[0265] When the standby time of the air conditioner is longer than T, step S511 is executed.

[0266] When the standby time of the air conditioner is less than or equal to T, execute step S5092.

[0267] In step S5102, the default mode of the air conditioner is executed.

[0268] For example, the default mode of the air conditioner is a mode set at the factory.

[0269] In step S512, it is determined whether the operation season is the cooling season.

[0270] When the operating season is the cooling season, execute step S51031.

[0271] When the operating season is not the cooling season, execute step S51032.

[0272] In step S51031, the air conditioner operates in cooling mode.

[0273] In step S51032, the air conditioner operates in heating mode.

[0274] In step S511, the operation mode is obtained by combining the outdoor temperature, the indoor temperature, and the historical operation data.

[0275] By adopting the above method, on the one hand, when the air conditioner is connected to the Internet, the operating season of the air conditioner can be determined according to the network time and the standby time, so that the air conditioner can adjust the operating mode in time when it is not turned on for a long time, without the need for manual setting by the user; on the other hand, when the air conditioner is not connected to the Internet, it can determine whether to use historical data of the same period of time in previous years to determine the operating season based on the power-on time and the standby time, thereby solving the differences in individual preferences of users.
