[0057] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0058] Example 1

[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic insect killing method based on an air conditioner, comprising:

[0060] S1: Control the air conditioner to blow air normally.

[0061] S2: Detect whether the air conditioner is in night working mode, and if so, detect whether there is a moving object.

[0062] S3: If there are the moving objects, the number of the moving objects is obtained; if the number of the moving objects is greater than 0 and less than a first number threshold, the insecticide module of the air conditioner is controlled to spray insecticide at a first speed for a first time.

[0063] S4: If the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the first working times threshold, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is closed.

[0064] After the air conditioner is turned on, it blows air normally. First, the working time of the air conditioner is determined. If the working time is between 6:00 and 18:00, it is a non-night working mode; if the working time is between 18:00 and 6:00 the next day, it is a night working mode. An ultrasonic sensor is arranged on the outside of the air conditioner. When the air conditioner is in night mode, the ultrasonic sensor is used to detect whether there are moving objects around the air conditioner. The moving objects in this embodiment are mosquitoes.

[0065] If the ultrasonic sensor does not detect a moving object, it will re-judge after 10 minutes; if the ultrasonic sensor detects a moving object, the insecticide module will spray insecticide spray, and then the insecticide module will be turned off to determine the number of times the insecticide module has been run since the air conditioner was turned on this time.

[0066] If there are moving objects, the number of moving objects is obtained, and corresponding mosquito killing measures are taken according to the number of moving objects. In this embodiment, the first number threshold is 2 and the first time is 1 second. When the ultrasonic sensor detects that the number of moving objects N is less than 2, the insecticide module sprays insecticide at the first speed V1 for 1 second. At this time, the air conditioner works in the first insecticide mode.

[0067] In this embodiment, taking the first working times threshold value of 8 as an example, after the air conditioner is turned on, if the working times T of the insecticide module is less than 8, re-determination is performed after 30 minutes; after the air conditioner is turned on, if the working times T of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to 8, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is closed.

[0068] The automatic insecticide method based on the air conditioner of this embodiment includes controlling the air conditioner to discharge air normally. The same number of mosquitoes has different effects during the day and at night, and mosquitoes may be more active at night. Therefore, it is detected whether the air conditioner is in the night working mode. If so, it is detected whether there is a moving object. If there is a moving object, the number of moving objects is obtained. Different numbers of moving objects, such as mosquitoes, are adopted to quickly kill mosquitoes without affecting the health of users. If the number of moving objects is greater than 0 and less than the first number threshold, it means that the number of mosquitoes is small at this time, and insecticide is sprayed at a slower speed. The spraying lasts for a shorter time to kill mosquitoes without affecting the health of users. The insecticide module of the air conditioner is controlled to spray insecticide at a first speed, and the spraying lasts for a first time. If the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the first working times threshold, it means that the insecticide module of the air conditioner has fully killed the mosquitoes near the air conditioner. At this time, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is closed, and the filter of the air conditioner is cleaned before controlling the air conditioner to supply air to the room. The present invention does not need to pause the air conditioner during the process of killing mosquitoes. The number of mosquitoes near the air conditioner can be detected in real time when the air conditioner is running, and a corresponding insecticidal mode is executed according to the number of mosquitoes to kill indoor mosquitoes.

[0069] Example 2

[0070] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic insect killing method based on an air conditioner, comprising:

[0071] S1: Control the air conditioner to blow air normally.

[0072] S2: Detect whether the air conditioner is in night working mode, and if so, detect whether there is a moving object.

[0073] S3: If there are the moving objects, the number of the moving objects is obtained; if the number of the moving objects is greater than 0 and less than a first number threshold, the insecticide module of the air conditioner is controlled to spray insecticide at a first speed for a first time.

[0074] S4: If the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the first working times threshold, closing the air guide plate of the air conditioner.

[0075] After closing the air guide plate of the air conditioner, the method further comprises:

[0076] S51: removing dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter screen of the air conditioner.

[0077] S52: Open the air guide plate to control the air conditioner to resume normal air output.

[0078] When the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the first working times threshold, the air conditioner stops blowing air and switches from the blowing mode to the dust removal mode. In the dust removal mode, dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter are removed so that the dust and mosquitoes fall into the dust removal box to prevent dust and mosquitoes from accumulating on the surface of the filter and clogging the filter.

[0079] The method of removing dust and mosquitoes from the surface of the filter screen of the air conditioner comprises:

[0080] S511: Fix the brush at the initial position of the brush.

[0081] S512: The drum drives the filter to move from the initial position of the filter toward the direction close to the S-shaped track.

[0082] S513: When the filter moves into the S-shaped track, the brush is rotated to a dust removal position.

[0083] S514: The roller drives the filter to move in a direction away from the S-shaped track, and the brush removes dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter.

[0084] S515: The roller drives the filter to separate from the brush and rotates the brush to the initial position of the brush.

[0085] S516: The drum drives the filter to move to the initial position of the filter.

[0086] The second track of this embodiment is an S-shaped track, and the roller drives the filter to move in the direction close to the S-shaped track. During this process, the brush is located at the initial position of the brush. After the filter enters the S-shaped track, the brush is rotated to the dust removal position, and then the roller drives the filter to move upward, and the brush removes dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter, and the dust and mosquitoes fall into the dust removal box. When the filter is separated from the brush, the brush returns to the initial position of the brush, and the filter continues to move forward until the filter moves to the initial position of the filter, and then the air guide plate of the air conditioner is opened, and the air conditioner resumes normal air output.

[0087] When the brush is located at the dust removal position, the brush faces the filter and contacts the filter to remove dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter.

[0088] After closing the air guide plate of the air conditioner, this embodiment further includes removing dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter screen of the air conditioner. The air guide plate is opened to control the air conditioner to resume normal air discharge. Removing dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter screen of the air conditioner includes fixing the brush at the initial position of the brush, and the roller drives the filter screen to move from the initial position of the filter screen to the direction close to the second track. When the filter screen moves into the second track, the brush is rotated to the dust removal position. The roller drives the filter screen to move in the direction away from the second track, and the brush removes dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter screen. The roller drives the filter screen to separate from the brush, rotates the brush to the initial position of the brush, and drives the filter screen to move to the initial position of the filter screen. The second track of this embodiment is an S-shaped track, and the roller drives the filter screen to move in the direction close to the S-shaped track. During this process, the brush is located at the initial position of the brush. After the filter screen enters the S-shaped track, the brush is rotated to the dust removal position, and then the roller drives the filter screen to move upward, and the brush removes dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter screen, and the dust and mosquitoes fall into the dust removal box. When the filter is separated from the brush, the brush returns to its initial position, and the filter continues to move forward until it reaches its initial position. Next, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is opened, and the air conditioner resumes normal air flow.

[0089] Example 3

[0090] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic insect killing method based on an air conditioner, comprising:

[0091] S1: Control the air conditioner to blow air normally.

[0092] S2: Detect whether the air conditioner is in night working mode, and if so, detect whether there is a moving object.

[0093] S3: If there are the moving objects, the number of the moving objects is obtained; if the number of the moving objects is greater than 0 and less than a first number threshold, the insecticide module of the air conditioner is controlled to spray insecticide at a first speed for a first time.

[0094] S4: If the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the first working times threshold, closing the air guide plate of the air conditioner.

[0095] After obtaining the number of the moving objects, the method further includes:

[0096] S33: Detect whether the number of the moving objects is greater than or equal to a first number threshold.

[0097] S34: If the number of the moving objects is greater than or equal to the first number threshold and less than the third number threshold, control the insecticide module to spray the insecticide at the first speed.

[0098] S35: If the injection continues for the second time, the injection is terminated.

[0099] Before step S33, step S31 is also included: if there are moving objects, the number of moving objects is obtained. After step S31, step S32 is also included: if the number of moving objects is greater than 0 and less than a first number threshold, the insecticide module of the air conditioner is controlled to spray insecticide at a first speed for a first time. After executing step S31, step S32 or steps S33-S35 are executed.

[0100] In this embodiment, the first quantity threshold is 2, the third quantity threshold is 4, the first time is 1 second, and the second time is 2 seconds. The ultrasonic sensor detects that the number of moving objects is N. When 2≤N<4, the insecticide module sprays insecticide at a speed of V1 for 2 seconds. At this time, the insecticide module works in the second insecticide mode.

[0101] After detecting whether the number of the moving objects is greater than or equal to the first number threshold, the method further includes:

[0102] S34': If the number of the moving objects is greater than or equal to a third number threshold, control the insecticide module to spray the insecticide at a second speed.

[0103] S35': If the injection continues for the third time, the injection is terminated.

[0104] In this embodiment, taking the third time of 3 seconds as an example, the number of moving objects detected by the ultrasonic sensor is N. When N≥4, the insecticide module sprays insecticide at a speed of V2 for 3 seconds. At this time, the insecticide module works in the third insecticide mode.

[0105] If the injection continues for the second time, after the injection is finished, the method further includes:

[0106] S36: Detect whether the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to a first working times threshold; if not, re-determine whether the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the first working times threshold after a first interval time.

[0107] S37: If the number of working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the first working times threshold, close the air guide plate of the air conditioner; remove dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter of the air conditioner; open the air guide plate and control the air conditioner to resume normal air output.

[0108] In this embodiment, the first working times threshold value is 8 and the first interval time is 30 minutes. If the working times T of the insecticide module is less than 8, then after 30 minutes, it is re-determined whether the working times T of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to 8. If the working times T of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to 8, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is closed. The second track of this embodiment is an S-shaped track, and the roller drives the filter to move in the direction close to the S-shaped track. During this process, the brush is located at the initial position of the brush. After the filter enters the S-shaped track, the brush is rotated to the dust removal position, and then the roller drives the filter to move upward. The brush brushes away the dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter, and the dust and mosquitoes fall into the dust removal box. When the filter is separated from the brush, the brush returns to the initial position of the brush, and the filter continues to move forward until the filter moves to the initial position of the filter. Next, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is opened, and the air conditioner resumes normal air outlet.

[0109] After detecting whether the air conditioner is in the night working mode, the method further comprises:

[0110] S21': If the air conditioner is in a non-nighttime working mode, detect whether there is a moving object.

[0111] S22': If there are the moving objects, the number of the moving objects is obtained.

[0112] S23': If the number of the moving objects is greater than or equal to a second number threshold, the insecticide module is controlled to spray the insecticide at a third speed for a fourth time; wherein the fourth time is greater than the third time, the third time is greater than the second time, and the second time is greater than the first time.

[0113] S24': If the number of the moving objects is less than a second number threshold, control the insecticide module to spray insecticide at a third speed for a third time; wherein the third number threshold is greater than the second number threshold, and the second number threshold is greater than the first number threshold.

[0114] This embodiment takes the second quantity threshold value of 3 and the fourth time of 5 seconds as an example. The number of moving objects detected by the ultrasonic sensor is N, and the moving objects in this embodiment are mosquitoes. When N ≥ 3, the insecticide module sprays insecticide at the third speed V3 for 5 seconds, and the insecticide module works in the fifth working mode. When N < 3, the insecticide module sprays insecticide at the third speed V3 for 3 seconds, and the insecticide module works in the fourth working mode.

[0115] After the spraying continues for a third time, the method further comprises:

[0116] S25': Detect whether the working times of the insecticide module is greater than or equal to the second working times threshold value, if so, close the air guide plate of the air conditioner; remove dust and mosquitoes on the filter surface of the air conditioner; open the air guide plate, and control the air conditioner to resume normal air output.

[0117] S26': If the working number of the insecticidal module is less than the second working number threshold, then after a first interval, re-determine whether the working number of the insecticidal module is greater than or equal to the first working number threshold.

[0118] In this embodiment, the second working times threshold value is 4 as an example. After the insecticide module works for 3 seconds in the fourth working mode or 5 seconds in the fifth working mode, the working times T of the insecticide module is detected. If T≥4, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is closed. The second track of this embodiment is an S-shaped track. The roller drives the filter to move in the direction close to the S-shaped track. During this process, the brush is located at the initial position of the brush. After the filter enters the S-shaped track, the brush is rotated to the dust removal position, and then the roller drives the filter to move upward. The brush brushes away the dust and mosquitoes on the surface of the filter, and the dust and mosquitoes fall into the dust removal box. When the filter is separated from the brush, the brush returns to the initial position of the brush, and the filter continues to move forward until the filter moves to the initial position of the filter. Next, the air guide plate of the air conditioner is opened, and the air conditioner resumes normal air discharge. If the air conditioner is not shut down and runs continuously, and the working mode of the air conditioner is switched, all modules immediately execute the current command and reset, and re-determine after 5 minutes from detecting whether the air conditioner is in the night working mode.

[0119] If T<4, then after 30 minutes, it is determined again whether T≥4 holds true. If so, an ultrasonic sensor is used to detect whether there is a moving object. If no moving object is detected, after a fourth interval time, it is determined again whether the ultrasonic sensor has detected the moving object. The fourth interval time in this embodiment is 10 minutes.

[0120] Before detecting whether there is a moving object, the method further includes:

[0121] S11': Light up the mosquito attracting lamp and record the lighting start time.

[0122] S12': starting from the lighting start time, after a second interval time has passed, the mosquito attracting lamp is turned off.

[0123] S13': after the third interval time has passed, the mosquito attracting lamp is re-lit.

[0124] When the air conditioner is running, the ultrasonic sensor senses the number of mosquitoes near the air conditioner, and then transmits the signal to the insecticide module, which executes the corresponding insecticide mode according to the signal. When the air conditioner is in night working mode, that is, from 18:00 to 6:00 the next day, the mosquito attracting lamp turns on and off according to the set cycle, attracting mosquitoes to the filter net of the air conditioner at night, thereby killing mosquitoes.

[0125] When the air conditioner is in night working mode, the mosquito attracting lamp is turned on, and the lighting start time is recorded, for example, 21:00 p.m. After a second interval time, for example, 5 minutes, that is, at 21:05 p.m., the mosquito attracting lamp is turned off. After a third interval time, for example, 25 minutes, the mosquito attracting lamp is turned on again. The above working process of the mosquito attracting lamp is a working cycle, and one working cycle is 30. In the process of using the ultrasonic sensor to detect mosquitoes and the insecticidal module to kill mosquitoes, the mosquito attracting lamp works in a cycle and the above working cycle is repeated continuously.

[0126] After detecting whether the air conditioner is in the night working mode, this embodiment also includes detecting whether there is a moving object if the air conditioner is in the non-night working mode. If there is a moving object, the number of moving objects is obtained. If the number of moving objects is greater than or equal to the second number threshold, the insecticide module is controlled to spray insecticide at a third speed, and the spraying lasts for a fourth time; wherein the fourth time is greater than the third time, the third time is greater than the second time, and the second time is greater than the first time. The third speed is greater than the second speed, and the second speed is greater than the first speed. The insecticide modes are sorted according to the intensity, and the sequence is mode 1>mode 2>mode 3>mode 4>mode 5.
