[0002] In order to absorb pet hair, existing air purifiers are designed with larger air inlets and grille openings. To this end, the motor speed needs to be increased to meet performance requirements, but this will cause increased noise. In addition, different pets have different hair lengths, so this situation will cause the air purifier to have excessive or insufficient performance. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides an air purifier and a control method, a control device, and a readable storage medium thereof to solve the problems of increased noise and excess or insufficient performance of existing air purifiers due to a large air inlet opening.

[0005] Beneficial effect: The air purifier of the present application can drive the regulating part to move relative to the air inlet through the driving component, so that the air inlet presents different opening sizes to meet different purification intensity requirements. Specifically, if the pet's hair is short, the driving component drives the regulating part to move relative to the air inlet to reduce the opening of the air inlet. When the opening of the air inlet is reduced, the operating power of the air purifier can be reduced synchronously to reduce noise and improve user experience. If the pet's hair is long, the driving component drives the regulating part to move relative to the air inlet to increase the opening of the air inlet. When the opening of the air inlet is increased, the operating power of the air purifier can be increased synchronously to enhance the air purification intensity, so that the performance of the air purifier is within a reasonable range without excess or deficiency.

[0063] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments 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 those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0064] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "lateral", "inside", "outside", "first", "second", "third" and the like indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0065] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0066] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0067] Combine the following Figures 1 to 10 , describing an embodiment of the present invention.

[0068] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, an air purifier is disclosed, including a shell 1, an adjusting part 2 and a driving assembly 3, wherein the shell 1 is provided with an air inlet 121, the adjusting part 2 is arranged on the shell 1, the adjusting part 2 is movably arranged on the air inlet 121, the driving assembly 3 is arranged on the shell 1, and the driving assembly 3 is transmission-connected with the adjusting part 2 for driving the adjusting part 2 to move relative to the air inlet 121 so that the air inlet 121 presents different opening sizes.

[0069] The air purifier of the present application can drive the regulating part 2 to move relative to the air inlet 121 through the driving component 3, so that the air inlet 121 presents different opening sizes to meet different purification intensity requirements. Specifically, if the pet's hair is short, the regulating part 2 is driven by the driving component 3 to move relative to the air inlet 121 to reduce the opening of the air inlet 121. When the opening of the air inlet 121 is reduced, the operating power of the air purifier can be reduced synchronously to reduce noise and improve user experience. If the pet's hair is long, the regulating part 2 is driven by the driving component 3 to move relative to the air inlet 121 to increase the opening of the air inlet 121. When the opening of the air inlet 121 is increased, the operating power of the air purifier can be increased synchronously to enhance the air purification intensity, so that the performance of the air purifier is within a reasonable range without excess or deficiency.

[0070] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the adjusting part 2 can be laterally movably arranged at the air inlet 121, and the driving component 3 includes a driving motor 31 and a transmission component, wherein the driving motor 31 is arranged at the shell 1, the power input end of the transmission component is connected to the driving motor 31, and the power output end of the transmission component is connected to the adjusting part 2, which is used to drive the adjusting part 2 to move laterally relative to the air inlet 121.

[0071] Through the above arrangement, when the opening of the air inlet 121 needs to be adjusted, the driving motor 31 drives the adjusting portion 2 to move laterally relative to the air inlet 121 through the transmission assembly, thereby adjusting the opening of the air inlet 121 .

[0072] It can be understood that when the adjusting portion 2 moves laterally relative to the air inlet 121, the lateral opening of the air inlet 121 can be changed. When the adjusting portion 2 completely covers the air inlet 121, the opening of the air inlet 121 is 0, that is, the air inlet 121 is completely closed (such as Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 2 ), when the adjusting portion 2 moves laterally to be completely offset from the air inlet 121, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 is 1, that is, the air inlet 121 is fully opened (as shown in FIG. 2 ). Figure 2 As shown), when the regulating portion 2 moves laterally until its projection on the air inlet 121 partially overlaps with the air inlet 121, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 is between 0 and 1, that is, the air inlet 121 is in a partially open state.

[0073] As an alternative implementation, the adjustment portion 2 may also be vertically movable relative to the air inlet 121 , so as to adjust the opening of the air inlet 121 .

[0074] Specifically, the driving assembly 3 further includes a fixing frame 34 , which is disposed on the housing 1 , and the driving motor 31 is mounted on the fixing frame 34 .

[0075] like Figure 3and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the transmission assembly includes a transmission gear 32 and a rack 33, wherein the transmission gear 32 is connected to the motor shaft of the driving motor 31, the rack 33 is arranged on the adjusting part 2, the rack 33 extends along the moving direction of the adjusting part 2, and the rack 33 is meshed with the transmission gear 32.

[0076] When the opening of the air inlet 121 needs to be adjusted, the drive motor 31 drives the motor shaft to rotate, driving the transmission gear 32 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rack 33 meshing with the transmission gear 32 to move, and then driving the adjustment part 2 to move horizontally relative to the air inlet 121, finally realizing the adjustment of the opening of the air inlet 121.

[0077] The driving motor 31 is a forward and reverse motor, which drives the adjustment part 2 to move back and forth laterally relative to the air inlet 121 through clockwise or counterclockwise rotation of the forward and reverse motor, thereby adjusting the opening of the air inlet 121.

[0078] Preferably, the rack 33 is disposed close to the center of the adjusting portion 2 to improve the force balance of the adjusting portion 2 and ensure movement stability.

[0079] It should be noted that the length of the rack 33 limits the maximum distance that the adjusting part 2 can move, so the moving distance of the adjusting part 2 can be controlled by designing the length of the rack 33, and this application does not limit it. In this embodiment, the length of the rack 33 must at least meet the position where the adjusting part 2 can move to the position where the air inlet 121 is fully opened (the opening of the air inlet 121 is 1) and the position where the air inlet 121 is fully closed (the opening of the air inlet 121 is 0).

[0080] In some embodiments, two air inlets 121 and two adjusting parts 2 are provided, and the racks 33 on the two adjusting parts 2 are meshed with the same transmission gear 32 to drive the two adjusting parts 2 to move synchronously through the rotation of the same transmission gear 32 .

[0081] The two air inlets 121 can increase the air intake volume and enhance the purification strength of the air purifier. The driving motor 31 drives the transmission gear 32 to rotate, driving the two racks 33 to move synchronously, thereby driving the two adjustment parts 2 to move synchronously, thereby realizing the adjustment of the opening of the two air inlets 121, reducing the setting of the driving component 3 and ensuring the consistency of the opening adjustment of the two air inlets 121, so that the air intake on both sides is more uniform.

[0082] In other alternative embodiments, the number of the adjusting parts 2 is adjusted according to the number of the air inlets 121. For example, when the number of the air inlets 121 is three, the number of the adjusting parts 2 is also correspondingly set to three.

[0083] In other alternative embodiments, the drive assembly 3 can also be configured to have a motor drive the screw to rotate, thereby driving the adjustment part 2 to move along the axial direction of the screw, and then causing the adjustment part 2 to move relative to the air inlet 121, which can also achieve the same technical effect as the present application and is not limited to the above settings.

[0084] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in any one of the figures, in some embodiments, the air purifier further includes a camera device 4, which is disposed on the shell 1, and the camera device 4 is used to obtain the length of the pet's hair, and to control the driving component 3 to drive the adjusting part 2 to move to a preset position according to the length of the hair.

[0085] Different pet hair lengths require different air purifier strengths. The camera device 4 is used to obtain the pet hair length and control the drive component 3 to drive the adjustment part 2 to a preset position according to the hair length, so that the opening of the air inlet 121 is at a suitable position to meet the purification intensity requirements of different pet hair lengths.

[0086] It should be noted that the longer the pet hair is, the stronger the air purifier is required, that is, the larger the opening of the air inlet 121 is, the greater the operating power of the air purifier is; conversely, the shorter the pet hair is, the lower the strength of the air purifier is required, that is, the smaller the operating power of the air purifier is.

[0087] The imaging device 4 may be a camera, but is not limited thereto.

[0088] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the shell 1 includes a front shell 11 and an air inlet panel 12, wherein the front shell 11 has a mounting position 111, the air inlet panel 12 is connected and fixed to the front shell 11 via the mounting position 111, the air inlet 121 is arranged on the air inlet panel 12, and an air inlet cavity connected to the air inlet 121 is formed between the air inlet panel 12 and the front shell 11, and the adjustment part 2 and the driving assembly 3 are both arranged in the air inlet cavity.

[0089] The wind enters the air inlet cavity from the air inlet 121 and flows to the downstream filter assembly 5. The regulating part 2 and the driving assembly 3 are both arranged in the air inlet cavity between the air inlet panel 12 and the front shell 11, which can avoid the structure being exposed. At the same time, there is no need to set up additional space to install the regulating part 2 and the driving assembly 3, thereby improving the compactness of the structure. The air inlet cavity also protects the regulating part 2 and the driving assembly 3.

[0090] The present application does not limit the shape of the air inlet 121, and the shape of the air inlet 121 can be circular, elliptical or geometric. In this embodiment, the air inlet 121 is a long rectangular opening vertically opened along the air inlet panel 12, but is not limited thereto.

[0091] The regulating part 2 is specifically in the shape of a plate, and the shape of the regulating part 2 matches the shape of the air inlet 121. In this embodiment, since the air inlet 121 is a long rectangular opening vertically opened along the air inlet panel 12, the regulating part 2 is a long rectangular plate. It should be noted that the projection area of ​​the regulating part 2 on the air inlet panel 12 is greater than or equal to the area of ​​the air inlet 121, so that the regulating part 2 can completely cover the air inlet 121, and the air inlet 121 is completely closed, so as to prevent external debris from entering the interior of the air purifier through the air inlet 121 when the air purifier is not running.

[0092] In this embodiment, the camera device 4 can be fixed to the front shell 11 and located above the air inlet panel 12, so that the camera device 4 has a certain height to facilitate image collection.

[0093] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the air purifier also includes a filter assembly 5, which is arranged in the air inlet cavity and located downstream of the air inlet 121, and the adjustment part 2 and the drive assembly 3 are both located between the filter assembly 5 and the air inlet panel 12.

[0094] Wind enters the air inlet chamber from the air inlet 121 and flows to the filter assembly 5 for filtration, thereby absorbing dust and hair in the air. The adjustment part 2 and the drive assembly 3 are both located between the filter assembly 5 and the air inlet panel 12, so that the drive assembly 3 can drive the adjustment part 2 to adjust the opening of the air inlet 121 on the air inlet panel 12.

[0095] In some embodiments, the filter assembly 5 includes a filter frame 51 and a filter body 52 disposed inside the filter frame 51 , wherein the filter frame 51 is connected to the front shell 11 , and the drive assembly 3 is disposed on a side of the filter body 52 facing the air inlet 121 .

[0096] The filter frame 51 supports the filter body 52 , and the filter body 52 filters the air flowing into the air inlet 121 . The driving component 3 is arranged on the side of the filter body 52 facing the air inlet 121 to facilitate driving the adjustment part 2 to move.

[0097] The filter body 52 may be a HEPA filter that can effectively capture pet hair and allergens.

[0098] In this embodiment, the fixing frame 34 is fixed on the filter body 52 , and the motor is installed on the fixing frame 34 .

[0099] In addition to the above configuration, an activated carbon filter may be provided downstream of the filter body 52 to remove pet odors and improve the quality of air purification.

[0100] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the shell 1 also includes a rear shell 13 and a top cover 14, wherein the rear shell 13 and the front shell 11 are connected and fixed to form an air duct connected to the air inlet cavity, and the top cover 14 is arranged on the top of the rear shell 13 and the front shell 11, and an air outlet 141 connected to the air duct is arranged on the top cover 14, and the air outlet 141 is provided with an air outlet grille to evenly distribute the air.

[0101] In addition, if Figure 3 As shown, the air purifier of this embodiment also includes an impeller assembly 6 installed in the air duct, and the impeller assembly 6 includes an impeller 61, an impeller motor 62 and a motor seat 63, wherein the motor shafts of the impeller 61 and the impeller motor 62 are connected, the impeller motor 62 is installed on the motor seat 63, and the motor seat 63 is arranged on the rear shell 13. The impeller 61 is driven to rotate by the impeller motor 62, thereby generating negative pressure in the air duct. The air flows into the air inlet cavity from the air inlet 121 under negative pressure, and flows through the filter assembly 5, the impeller 61, and the air duct in sequence, and then flows out through the air outlet 141 to achieve air purification.

[0102] like Figure 3 As shown, the air purifier of this embodiment further includes an air quality sensor 7, which is arranged in the housing 1. The air quality sensor 7 is used to detect the air quality of the surrounding environment and control the operating position of the air purifier according to the air quality.

[0103] The air quality sensor 7 is provided to detect the air quality of the surrounding environment, and the operating gear of the air purifier is controlled according to the air quality, so that the operating gear of the air purifier can meet the purification intensity while not being too high to avoid loud noise.

[0104] Furthermore, the air quality sensor 7 can be arranged on the side of the rear housing 13, and a protective cover can be used to protect the air quality sensor 7 to avoid damage caused by accidental touch.

[0105] like Figure 5 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, a control method of the air purifier as described above is disclosed, and the control method includes: Get the pet's hair length; The opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is determined according to the length of the pet's hair.

[0106] The control method of the present application is used to control an air purifier, so the control method of the present application has the same technical effect as the air purifier. For details, please refer to the above and will not be repeated here.

[0107] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, determining the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier according to the length of the pet's hair includes: Determine whether the pet's hair length is within a first preset value x1, x1 < 3 cm; If yes, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a first value y1, 0<y1≤1 / 3.

[0108] According to the above setting, when it is determined that the pet's hair length is at the first preset value x1, x1<3cm, it means that the pet's hair length is very short. Therefore, the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is set to the first value y1, 0<y1≤1 / 3, that is, the opening of the air inlet 121 is less than or equal to one third, which can meet the required air purification intensity and avoid the opening of the air inlet 121 being set too large, resulting in excessive operating power of the air purifier and causing greater operating noise.

[0109] Specifically, the first preset value x1 may be 1 cm or 2 cm, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0110] The first value y1 may be 1 / 6, 1 / 5, 1 / 4 or 1 / 3, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0111] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, determining whether the hair length of the pet is after the first preset value x1 includes: If not, determine whether the pet's hair length is within a second preset value x2, 3cm≤x2≤7cm; If yes, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a second value y2, 1 / 3<y2≤1 / 2.

[0112] According to the above setting, when it is determined that the pet's hair length is at the second preset value x2, 3cm≤x2≤7cm, it means that the pet's hair length is relatively long. Therefore, the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is set to the second value y2, 1 / 3<y2≤1 / 2, that is, the opening of the air inlet 121 is greater than one third and less than or equal to one half, which can meet the required air purification intensity and avoid the opening of the air inlet 121 being set too small or too large, resulting in insufficient purification intensity of the air purifier or excessive operating power.

[0113] Specifically, the second preset value x2 may be 3 cm, 4 cm, 5 cm, 6 cm or 7 cm, etc. The second value y2 may be 5 / 12 or 1 / 2, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0114] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, after the step of determining whether the hair length of the pet is at the second preset value x2, the following steps are included: If not, determine whether the pet's hair length is within a third preset value x3, x3>7cm; If so, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a third value y3, 1 / 2<y3≤1.

[0115] With the above setting, when it is determined that the pet's hair length is at the third preset value x3, x3>7cm, it means that the pet's hair length is very long. Therefore, the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is set to the third value y3, 1 / 2<y3≤1, that is, the opening of the air inlet 121 is greater than one half and less than or equal to one, which can meet the required air purification intensity and avoid the air inlet 121 opening being set too small, resulting in insufficient purification intensity of the air purifier.

[0116] Specifically, the third preset value x3 may be 8 cm, 9 cm or 10 cm, etc. The third value y3 may be 3 / 4 or 1, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0117] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the control method of the air purifier further includes: Get the operating position of the air purifier; The operating power of the air purifier is determined according to the operating gear of the air purifier and the opening of the air inlet 121.

[0118] The above setting associates the operating power of the air purifier with the operating gear of the air purifier and the opening of the air inlet 121, so that the operating power of the air purifier can be adjusted according to the operating gear of the air purifier and the opening of the air inlet 121, thereby making the purification intensity of the air purifier within a reasonable range.

[0119] It should be noted that the operating power of the air purifier is the operating power of the impeller motor 62 in the air purifier.

[0120] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the operating power of the air purifier is determined according to the operating gear of the air purifier and the opening of the air inlet 121, including: Determine whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a first value y1, 0<y1≤1 / 3; If yes, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w1, 0<w1≤10%.

[0121] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it means that the pet's hair is very short. It is then further determined whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w1, 0<w1≤10%, that is, setting a smaller operating power at this time can meet the purification intensity requirements.

[0122] Specifically, the operating power w1 can be 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% or 10%, but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w1 is 10%.

[0123] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, after determining whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it includes: If not, determine whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a second value y2, 1 / 3<y2≤1 / 2; If yes, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w11, w11>w1 and 0<w11≤15%.

[0124] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, y2>y1, it means that the pet's hair is long. Then it is further determined whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w11, w11>w1 and 0<w11≤15%. At this time, slightly increasing the operating power so that w11>w1 can meet the purification intensity requirement.

[0125] Specifically, the operating power w11 may be 3%, 6%, 9%, 12% or 15%, but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w11 is 15%.

[0126] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, if not, after determining whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, it includes: If not, determine whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a third value y3, 1 / 2<y3≤1; If yes, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w111, w111>w11 and 0<w111≤20%.

[0127] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3, y3>y2, it means that the pet's hair is very long. Then it is further determined whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w111, w111>w11 and 0<w111≤20%. At this time, further increasing the operating power so that w111>w11 can meet the purification intensity requirement.

[0128] Specifically, the operating power w111 can be 4%, 8%, 12%, 16% or 205%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w111 is 20%.

[0129] That is to say, when the operating gear of the air purifier is always in the first gear, the longer the pet's hair is, the larger the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is, and the corresponding operating power of the air purifier is greater, thereby ensuring that the purification intensity of the air purifier is not too high while meeting the needs.

[0130] like Fig. 9 As shown, in some embodiments, if yes, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear, the method includes: If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear; If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w2, 10%<w2≤40%.

[0131] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it means that the pet's hair is very short. When it is determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, the operating power of the air purifier is w2, 10%<w2≤40%, that is, at this time, setting a moderate operating power in the second gear mode with short hair length can meet the purification intensity requirements.

[0132] Specifically, the operating power w2 can be 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35% or 40%, but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w2 is 40%.

[0133] like Fig. 9 As shown, in some embodiments, if not, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, it includes: If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w3, 40%<w3≤70%.

[0134] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it means that the pet's hair is very short. When it is further determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear, it means that the gear is at a high level at this time. The operating power of the air purifier is w3, 40%<w3≤70%, that is, at this time, when the hair length is very short and the third gear mode is set to a stronger operating power, the purification intensity requirement can be met.

[0135] Specifically, the operating power w3 may be 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65% or 70%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w3 is 70%.

[0136] like Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, after determining whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it includes: If not, determine whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a second value y2; If yes, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w12, w12>w2 and 15%<w12≤45%.

[0137] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, it means that the pet's hair is relatively long. When it is further determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, the operating power of the air purifier is w12, w12>w2 and 15%<w12≤45%, that is, when the pet's hair becomes longer and the opening of the air inlet 121 increases and the gear is the same, the operating power of the air purifier is appropriately increased to enhance the air purification intensity.

[0138] Specifically, the operating power w12 can be 16%, 21%, 26%, 31%, 36% or 45%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w12 is 45%.

[0139] like Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, if yes, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, it includes: If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w13, w13>w3 and 45%<w13≤80%.

[0140] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, it means that the pet's hair is relatively long. When it is further determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear, it means that the gear is at a high gear at this time. The operating power of the air purifier is w13, w13>w3 and 45%<w13≤80%, that is, at this time, setting a stronger operating power in the third gear mode with long hair length can meet the purification intensity requirement, that is, when the pet's hair becomes longer and the opening of the air inlet 121 increases and the gear is the same, the operating power of the air purifier is appropriately increased to enhance the air purification intensity.

[0141] Specifically, the operating power w13 can be 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75% or 80%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w13 is 80%.

[0142] like Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, if not, after determining whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, it includes: If not, determine whether the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is a third value y3; If yes, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w112, w112>w12 and 20%<w112≤50%.

[0143] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3, it means that the pet's hair is very long. When it is further determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, the operating power of the air purifier is w112, w112>w12 and 20%<w112≤50%. When the pet's hair becomes longer and the opening of the air inlet 121 increases further and the gear is the same, the operating power of the air purifier is further increased to further enhance the air purification intensity.

[0144] Specifically, the operating power w112 can be 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45% or 50%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w112 is 50%.

[0145] That is to say, when the operating gear of the air purifier is always in the second gear, the longer the pet's hair is, the larger the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is, and the corresponding operating power of the air purifier is greater, thereby ensuring that the purification intensity of the air purifier is not too high while meeting the needs.

[0146] like Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, if yes, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, it includes: If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear; If yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w113, w113>w13 and 50%<w113≤90%.

[0147] When it is determined that the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3, it means that the pet's hair is very long. When it is further determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear, it means that the gear is at a high level at this time. The operating power of the air purifier is w113, w113>w13 and 50%<w113≤90%, that is, at this time, further increasing the operating power in the mode of very long hair length and the third gear can meet the purification intensity requirement, that is, when the pet's hair becomes longer and the opening of the air inlet 121 is further increased and the gear is the same, the operating power of the air purifier is further increased to enhance the air purification intensity.

[0148] Specifically, the operating power w113 can be 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% or 90%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w113 is 90%.

[0149] That is to say, when the operating gear of the air purifier is always in the third gear, the longer the pet's hair is, the larger the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is, which correspondingly increases the operating power of the air purifier, thereby ensuring that the purification intensity of the air purifier meets the needs.

[0150] It can be understood that the first gear < the second gear < the third gear, which can be understood as low, medium and high gear respectively. Under each gear, corresponding operating power is set corresponding to the opening of different air inlet 121, so as to achieve fine control of the operating power of the air purifier according to the different hair lengths of the pets.

[0151] In some embodiments, obtaining the operating position of the air purifier includes: obtaining the operating position of the air purifier according to a user input instruction.

[0152] The operating gear of the air purifier is obtained according to the user input instruction to meet the user's usage needs. The user can input the first gear, the second gear or the third gear as needed.

[0153] In some embodiments, obtaining the operating gear of the air purifier includes: Get the air quality index; Determine the operating level of the air purifier based on the air quality index.

[0154] By determining the operating gear of the air purifier through the acquired air quality index, the operating gear of the air purifier can be associated with the real-time air quality index to meet the current air purification needs, and the user does not need to input instructions, thereby simplifying the operation and improving intelligence.

[0155] In some embodiments, determining the operating gear of the air purifier according to the air quality index includes: Based on the air quality index being in the first value range, the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear; Based on whether the air quality index is in the second value range, the second value range is greater than the first value range, the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, and the second gear is greater than the first gear; Based on the air quality index being in the third value range, the third value range>the second value range, the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear, and the third gear>the second gear.

[0156] Through the above settings, the larger the air quality index is, the worse the air quality is, and the corresponding operating gear of the air purifier is higher, thereby ensuring that the air purification intensity meets the purification needs.

[0157] It should be noted that the air quality index can be the PM2.5 content per cubic meter of air. Specifically, the first value range can be that the PM2.5 content per cubic meter is less than or equal to 30 mg; the second value range can be that the PM2.5 content per cubic meter is greater than 30 mg and less than 120 mg; the third value range can be that the PM2.5 content per cubic meter is greater than or equal to 120 mg.

[0158] Of course, in other embodiments, the air quality index may also be the PM10 content per cubic meter of air, etc., and is not limited to the above settings.

[0159] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, a control device is disclosed for implementing the above-mentioned control method of the air purifier, the control device includes an acquisition module and a determination module, the acquisition module is used to obtain the hair length of the pet, and the determination module is used to determine the opening of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier according to the hair length of the pet.
