Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air purification, and particularly to an air purifier, a control method thereof, a control device, and a readable storage medium. Background Art
[0002] In order to adsorb pet hair, the existing air purifiers are designed with a larger air inlet and grille opening. For this purpose, it is necessary to increase the motor speed to meet the performance requirements, but this will cause an increase in noise. Moreover, different pets have different hair lengths, so this situation will cause the performance of the air purifier to be excessive or insufficient. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides an air purifier, a control method thereof, a control device, and a readable storage medium to solve the problems of increased noise and excessive or insufficient performance caused by the large opening of the air inlet of the existing air purifiers.
[0004] The first aspect of the present invention provides an air purifier, including a housing, an adjusting part, and a driving component. The housing is provided with an air inlet. The adjusting part is arranged on the housing and is movably arranged at the air inlet. The driving component is arranged on the housing, and the driving component is in transmission connection with the adjusting part for driving the adjusting part to move relative to the air inlet so that the air inlet presents different opening degrees.
[0005] Beneficial Effects: The air purifier of the present application can drive the adjusting part to move relative to the air inlet through the driving component, so that the air inlet presents different opening degrees to meet different purification intensity requirements. Specifically, if the pet hair is short, the driving component is used to drive the adjusting part to move relative to the air inlet to reduce the opening degree of the air inlet. When the opening degree of the air inlet is reduced, the operating power of the air purifier can be synchronously reduced to reduce noise and improve the user experience. If the pet hair is long, the driving component is used to drive the adjusting part to move relative to the air inlet to increase the opening degree of the air inlet. When the opening degree of the air inlet is increased, the operating power of the air purifier can be synchronously increased to enhance the air purification intensity, so that the performance of the air purifier is within a reasonable range and there will be no situation of excess or deficiency.
[0006] In some embodiments, the adjusting part is movably arranged horizontally at the air inlet. The driving component includes a driving motor and a transmission component. The driving motor is arranged on the housing. The power input end of the transmission component is connected to the driving motor, and the power output end of the transmission component is connected to the adjusting part for driving the adjusting part to move horizontally relative to the air inlet.
[0007] Beneficial effects: Through the above settings, when it is necessary to adjust the opening degree of the air inlet, the driving motor drives the adjusting part to move horizontally relative to the air inlet through the transmission component, so as to realize the adjustment of the opening degree of the air inlet.
[0008] In some embodiments, the transmission component includes a transmission gear and a rack. The transmission gear is connected to the motor shaft of the driving motor. The rack is arranged on the adjusting part. The rack extends along the moving direction of the adjusting part, and the rack meshes with the transmission gear.
[0009] Beneficial effects: When it is necessary to adjust the opening degree of the air inlet, the driving motor drives the motor shaft to rotate, drives the transmission gear to rotate synchronously, thereby drives the rack meshing with the transmission gear to move, and then drives the adjusting part to move horizontally relative to the air inlet, and finally realizes the adjustment of the opening degree of the air inlet.
[0010] In some embodiments, both the air inlet and the adjusting part are provided with two. The racks on the two adjusting parts mesh with the same transmission gear, so as to drive the two adjusting parts to move synchronously through the rotation of the same transmission gear.
[0011] Beneficial effects: Two air inlets can increase the air intake volume and improve the purification intensity of the air purifier. By driving the driving motor to drive the transmission gear to rotate, driving the two racks to move synchronously, thereby driving the two adjusting parts to move synchronously, realizing the adjustment of the opening degrees of the two air inlets, reducing the setting of the driving components and ensuring the consistency of the adjustment of the opening degrees of the two air inlets, making the air intake on both sides more uniform.
[0012] In some embodiments, the air purifier further includes a camera device arranged on the housing. The camera device is used to obtain the length of pet hair and control the driving component to drive the adjusting part to move to a preset position according to the hair length.
[0013] Beneficial effects: Different lengths of pet hair require different purification intensities of the air purifier. The provided camera device is used to obtain the length of pet hair and control the driving component to drive the adjusting part to move to a preset position according to the hair length, so that the opening degree of the air inlet is at a suitable position to meet the purification intensity requirements of different pet hair lengths.
[0014] In some embodiments, the air purifier further includes an air quality sensor arranged on the housing. The air quality sensor is used to detect the air quality of the surrounding environment and control the operating gear of the air purifier according to the air quality.
[0015] Beneficial effects: The air quality sensor 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 without being too high, avoiding excessive noise.
[0016] In some embodiments, the housing includes a front shell and an air inlet panel. The front shell has a mounting position, and the air inlet panel is fixedly connected to the front shell through the mounting position. The air inlet is provided on the air inlet panel, and an air inlet cavity communicating with the air inlet is formed between the air inlet panel and the front shell. The adjusting part and the driving assembly are both arranged in the air inlet cavity.
[0017] Beneficial effects: The air enters the air inlet cavity from the air inlet and flows to the downstream filter assembly. The adjusting part and the driving assembly are both arranged in the air inlet cavity between the air inlet panel and the front shell, which can avoid the exposure of the structure. At the same time, there is no need to set up additional space to install the adjusting part and the driving assembly, improving the structural compactness, and the air inlet cavity also plays a protective role for the adjusting part and the driving assembly.
[0018] In some embodiments, the air purifier further includes a filter assembly. The filter assembly is arranged in the air inlet cavity and is located downstream of the air inlet. The adjusting part and the driving assembly are both located between the filter assembly and the air inlet panel.
[0019] Beneficial effects: The air enters the air inlet cavity from the air inlet and flows to the filter assembly for filtration, so as to adsorb dust and hair in the air. The adjusting part and the driving assembly are both located between the filter assembly and the air inlet panel to facilitate the driving assembly to drive the adjusting part to adjust the opening degree of the air inlet on the air inlet panel.
[0020] In some embodiments, the filter assembly includes a filter frame and a filter body arranged inside the filter frame. The filter frame is connected to the front shell, and the driving assembly is arranged on one side of the filter body facing the air inlet.
[0021] Beneficial effects: The filter frame supports the filter body, and the filter body filters the air flowing in from the air inlet. The driving assembly is arranged on one side of the filter body facing the air inlet, which is convenient for driving the adjusting part to move.
[0022] The second aspect of the present invention provides a control method for an air purifier as described above. The control method includes:
[0023] Obtain the hair length of the pet;
[0024] Determine the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier according to the hair length of the pet.
[0025] Beneficial effects: The control method of the present application is used to control an air purifier. Therefore, the control method of the present application has the same technical effects as the air purifier. For details, please refer to the above text and will not be elaborated here.
[0026] In some embodiments, the determining the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier according to the hair length of the pet includes:
[0027] Determine whether the hair length of the pet is within the first preset value x1, where x1 < 3 cm;
[0028] If so, the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the first value y1, where 0 < y1 ≤ 1 / 3.
[0029] Beneficial effects: With the above setting, when it is determined that the hair length of the pet is within the first preset value x1, x1 < 3 cm, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is very short. Therefore, setting the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier to the first value y1, 0 < y1 ≤ 1 / 3, that is, the opening degree of the air inlet is opened less than or equal to one-third, can meet the required air purification intensity and avoid setting the opening degree of the air inlet too large, resulting in too high operating power of the air purifier and generating a large operating noise.
[0030] In some embodiments, after determining whether the hair length of the pet is within the first preset value x1, it includes:
[0031] If not, determine whether the hair length of the pet is within the second preset value x2, where 3 cm ≤ x2 ≤ 7 cm;
[0032] If so, the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the second value y2, where 1 / 3 < y2 ≤ 1 / 2.
[0033] Beneficial effects: With the above setting, when it is determined that the hair length of the pet is within the second preset value x2, 3 cm ≤ x2 ≤ 7 cm, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is relatively long. Therefore, setting the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier to the second value y2, 1 / 3 < y2 ≤ 1 / 2, that is, the opening degree of the air inlet is greater than one-third and less than or equal to one-half, can meet the required air purification intensity and avoid the air purification intensity of the air purifier being insufficient or the operating power being too high due to the opening degree of the air inlet being set too small or too large.
[0034] In some embodiments, after the step of determining whether the hair length of the pet is within the second preset value x2, it includes:
[0035] If not, determine whether the hair length of the pet is within the third preset value x3, where x3 > 7 cm;
[0036] If so, the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the third value y3, where 1 / 2 < y3 ≤ 1.
[0037] Beneficial effects: With the above settings, when it is determined that the hair length of the pet is at the third preset value x3, where x3 > 7 cm, indicating that the pet's hair is very long, the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is set to the third value y3, where 1 / 2 < y3 ≤ 1. That is, when the opening degree of the air inlet is greater than one-half and less than or equal to one, it can meet the required air purification intensity and avoid insufficient purification intensity of the air purifier due to too small an opening degree of the air inlet.
[0038] In some embodiments, the control method of the air purifier further includes:

[0043] Judging whether the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the first value y1, where 0 < y1 ≤ 1 / 3;
[0044] If so, judging whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear;
[0045] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w1, where 0 < w1 ≤ 10%.
[0046] Beneficial effects: When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the first value y1, it indicates that the pet's hair is very short. Then, further judge whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w1, where 0 < w1 ≤ 10%. That is, at this time, setting a smaller operating power can meet the purification intensity requirements.

[0050] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w11, where w11 > w1 and 0 < w11 ≤ 15%.
[0051] Beneficial effect: When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the second value y2, where y2 > y1, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is relatively long. Then, further determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w11, where w11 > w1 and 0 < w11 ≤ 15%. At this time, slightly increase the operating power so that w11 > w1 can meet the purification intensity requirement.

[0056] Beneficial effect: When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the third value y3, where y3 > y2, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is very long. Then, further determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w111, where w111 > w11 and 0 < w111 ≤ 20%. At this time, further increase the operating power so that w111 > w11 can meet the purification intensity requirement.
[0057] In some embodiments, after the "if so" and determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear, it includes:
[0058] If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear;

[0060] Beneficial effects: When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the first value y1, it indicates that the hair length of the pet 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, where 10% < w2 ≤ 40%. That is, at this time, setting an appropriate operating power in the mode of short hair length and the second gear can meet the purification intensity requirements.
[0061] In some embodiments, after determining whether the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the first value y1, it includes:
[0062] If not, determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the second value y2;
[0063] If so, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear;
[0064] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w12, where w12 > w2 and 15% < w12 ≤ 45%.
[0065] Beneficial effects: When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the second value y2, it indicates that the hair length of the pet 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, where w12 > w2 and 15% < w12 ≤ 45%. That is, when the hair of the pet becomes longer, resulting in an increase in the opening degree of the air inlet and the same gear, the operating power of the air purifier is appropriately increased to enhance the air purification intensity.
[0066] In some embodiments, after the "if not, determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the second value y2", it includes:
[0067] If not, determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the third value y3;

[0070] Beneficial effects: When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the third value y3, it indicates that the hair length of the pet 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, where w112 > w12 and 20% < w112 ≤ 50%. When the hair of the pet becomes even longer, resulting in a further increase in the opening degree of the air inlet and the same gear, the operating power of the air purifier is further increased to further enhance the air purification intensity.
[0071] In some embodiments, after determining that if the answer is no and then determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, the following steps are included:
[0072] If the answer is no, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear;
[0073] If the answer is yes, the operating power of the air purifier is w3, where 40% < w3 ≤ 70%.
[0074] Beneficial effect: When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet of the air purifier is the first value y1, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is very short. Further, when it is determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear, it means that the gear is in the high gear at this time. Then the operating power of the air purifier is w3, where 40% < w3 ≤ 70%. That is, in the mode of short hair length and the third gear, setting a relatively strong operating power can meet the purification intensity requirements.
[0075] In some embodiments, after determining that if the answer is yes and then determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, the following steps are included:

[0119] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0120] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", "first", "second", "third", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
[0121] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installed", "connected", "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 directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0122] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0123] The following combines Figures 1 to 10 to describe the embodiments of the present invention.
[0124] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, an air purifier is disclosed, which includes a housing 1, an adjusting part 2 and a driving assembly 3. Among them, the housing 1 is provided with an air inlet 121, the adjusting part 2 is arranged in the housing 1, the adjusting part 2 is movably arranged at the air inlet 121, the driving assembly 3 is arranged in the housing 1, and the driving assembly 3 is in transmission connection 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 degrees.
[0125] 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.
[0126] 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.
[0127] 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 .
[0128] 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.
[0129] 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 .
[0130] 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 .
[0131] like Figure 3and Figure 4 As shown in Figure 4 , in some embodiments, the transmission assembly includes a transmission gear 32 and a rack 33. Among them, the transmission gear 32 is connected to the motor shaft of the drive motor 31, the rack 33 is disposed on the adjusting portion 2, the rack 33 extends along the moving direction of the adjusting portion 2, and the rack 33 meshes with the transmission gear 32.
[0132] When it is necessary to adjust the opening degree of the air inlet 121, the drive motor 31 drives the motor shaft to rotate, drives the transmission gear 32 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rack 33 meshing with the transmission gear 32 to move, and then driving the adjusting portion 2 to move laterally relative to the air inlet 121, and finally realizing the adjustment of the opening degree of the air inlet 121.
[0133] The drive motor 31 is a forward and reverse motor. By rotating clockwise or counterclockwise of the forward and reverse motor, the adjusting portion 2 is driven to move back and forth laterally relative to the air inlet 121, and the adjustment of the opening degree of the air inlet 121 is realized.
[0134] Preferably, the rack 33 is disposed near the central position of the adjusting portion 2 to improve the force balance of the adjusting portion 2 and ensure the movement stability.
[0135] It should be noted that the length of the rack 33 limits the maximum distance that the adjusting portion 2 can move. Therefore, the movement distance of the adjusting portion 2 can be controlled by designing the length of the rack 33, and this application does not make a limitation. In this embodiment, the length of the rack 33 should at least satisfy that the adjusting portion 2 can move to the position where the air inlet 121 is fully opened (the opening degree of the air inlet 121 is 1) and the position where the air inlet 121 is fully closed (the opening degree of the air inlet 121 is 0).
[0136] In some embodiments, there are two air inlets 121 and two adjusting portions 2. The racks 33 on the two adjusting portions 2 mesh with the same transmission gear 32, so as to drive the two adjusting portions 2 to move synchronously by the rotation of the same transmission gear 32.
[0137] The two air inlets 121 can increase the air intake volume and improve the purification intensity of the air purifier. By driving the drive motor 31 to drive the transmission gear 32 to rotate, driving the two racks 33 to move synchronously, thereby driving the two adjusting portions 2 to move synchronously, the adjustment of the opening degrees of the two air inlets 121 is realized, reducing the setting of the drive assembly 3 and ensuring the consistency of the adjustment of the opening degrees of the two air inlets 121, making the air intake on both sides more uniform.
[0138] In other alternative embodiments, the number of the adjusting portions 2 is adjusted according to the number of the air inlets 121. For example, when the air inlet 121 is set to three, the adjusting portion 2 is also correspondingly set to three.
[0139] In other alternative embodiments, the driving component 3 can also be set such that the motor drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the adjusting part 2 to move along the axial direction of the lead screw, and further enabling the adjusting part 2 to move relative to the air inlet 121, which can also achieve the same technical effect as that of the present application, not limited to the above settings.
[0140] As Figures 1 to 3 shown in any of
[0141] In some embodiments, the air purifier further includes a camera device 4 disposed on the housing 1. The camera device 4 is used to obtain the length of pet hair and control the driving component 3 to drive the adjusting part 2 to move to a preset position according to the hair length.
[0142] It should be noted that different lengths of pet hair require different intensities of the air purifier. The provided camera device 4 is used to obtain the length of pet hair and control the driving component 3 to drive the adjusting part 2 to move to a preset position, so that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 is at an appropriate position to meet the purification intensity requirements for different lengths of pet hair.
[0143] The camera device 4 can be a camera, but is not limited thereto.
[0144] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, the housing 1 includes a front housing 11 and an air inlet panel 12. Among them, the front housing 11 has a mounting position 111, and the air inlet panel 12 is connected and fixed to the front housing 11 through the mounting position 111. The air inlet 121 is provided on the air inlet panel 12, and an air inlet cavity communicating with the air inlet 121 is formed between the air inlet panel 12 and the front housing 11. The adjusting part 2 and the driving component 3 are both disposed in the air inlet cavity.
[0145] The air enters the air inlet cavity from the air inlet 121 and flows to the downstream filter assembly 5. The adjusting part 2 and the driving component 3 are both disposed in the air inlet cavity between the air inlet panel 12 and the front housing 11, which can avoid the exposure of the structure. At the same time, there is no need to set an additional space to install the adjusting part 2 and the driving component 3, improving the structural compactness, and the air inlet cavity also plays a protective role for the adjusting part 2 and the driving component 3.
[0146] The present application does not limit the shape of the air inlet 121. The shape of the air inlet 121 can be circular, oval or geometric. In this embodiment, the air inlet 121 is a long rectangular opening vertically provided on the air inlet panel 12, but is not limited thereto.
[0147] The adjusting part 2 is specifically in the shape of a plate, and the shape of the adjusting part 2 matches the shape of the air inlet 121. In this embodiment, since the air inlet 121 is a long rectangular opening vertically formed on the air inlet panel 12, the adjusting part 2 is a long rectangular plate. It should be noted that the projected area of the adjusting part 2 on the air inlet panel 12 is greater than or equal to the area of the air inlet 121, so that the adjusting part 2 can completely cover the air inlet 121, realizing the complete closing of the air inlet 121 and preventing external sundries from entering the interior of the air purifier when the air purifier is not operating.
[0148] In this embodiment, the imaging device 4 can be fixed to the front shell 11 and located above the air inlet panel 12, so that the imaging device 4 has a certain height for convenient acquisition.
[0149] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, the air purifier further includes a filter assembly 5. The filter assembly 5 is disposed in the air inlet chamber and located downstream of the air inlet 121. Both the adjusting part 2 and the driving assembly 3 are located between the filter assembly 5 and the air inlet panel 12.
[0150] Air enters the air inlet chamber from the air inlet 121 and flows towards the filter assembly 5 for filtration, thereby adsorbing dust and hair in the air. Both the adjusting part 2 and the driving assembly 3 are located between the filter assembly 5 and the air inlet panel 12 to facilitate the driving assembly 3 to drive the adjusting part 2 to adjust the opening degree of the air inlet 121 on the air inlet panel 12.
[0151] In some embodiments, the filter assembly 5 includes a filter frame 51 and a filter element body 52 disposed inside the filter frame 51. Among them, the filter frame 51 is connected to the front shell 11, and the driving assembly 3 is disposed on the side of the filter element body 52 facing the air inlet 121.
[0152] The filter frame 51 supports the filter element body 52, and the filter element body 52 filters the air flowing in from the air inlet 121. The driving assembly 3 is disposed on the side of the filter element body 52 facing the air inlet 121, facilitating the driving of the adjusting part 2 to move.
[0153] The filter element body 52 can be a HEPA filter, which can effectively capture pet hair and allergens.
[0154] In this embodiment, the fixing frame 34 is fixed to the filter element body 52, and the motor is installed on the fixing frame 34.
[0155] In addition to the above settings, an activated carbon filter can also be provided downstream of the filter element body 52 to remove pet odors and improve the air purification quality.
[0156] As Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 1 further includes a rear housing 13 and a top cover 14. Among them, the rear housing 13 and the front housing 11 are fixedly connected to form a duct communicating with the air inlet chamber. The top cover 14 is disposed on the top of the rear housing 13 and the front housing 11. An air outlet 141 communicating with the duct is provided on the top cover 14, and an air outlet grille is provided at the air outlet 141 to equalize the air flow.
[0157] In addition, as Figure 3 shown, the air purifier of this embodiment further includes an impeller assembly 6 installed in the duct. The impeller assembly 6 includes an impeller 61, an impeller motor 62, and a motor seat 63. Among them, the impeller 61 is connected to the motor shaft of the impeller motor 62. The impeller motor 62 is installed on the motor seat 63, and the motor seat 63 is disposed on the rear housing 13. The impeller 61 is driven by the impeller motor 62 to rotate, thereby generating a negative pressure in the duct. Air flows into the air inlet chamber from the air inlet 121 under the negative pressure, and sequentially passes through the filter assembly 5, the impeller 61, and the duct and then flows out through the air outlet 141 to achieve air purification.
[0158] As Figure 3 shown, the air purifier of this embodiment further includes an air quality sensor 7 disposed on the housing 1. The air quality sensor 7 is used to detect the air quality of the surrounding environment and control the operating gear of the air purifier according to the air quality.
[0159] By providing the air quality sensor 7 to detect the air quality of the surrounding environment and controlling the operating gear of the air purifier according to the air quality, the operating gear of the air purifier can be made not too high while meeting the purification intensity, avoiding excessive noise.
[0160] Further, the air quality sensor 7 can be disposed on the side of the rear housing 13, and a protective cover is used to protect the air quality sensor 7 to avoid damage caused by accidental touch.
[0161] As Figure 5 shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, a control method of an air purifier as described above is disclosed. The control method includes:
[0162] Obtain the hair length of the pet;
[0163] Determine the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier according to the hair length of the pet.
[0164] The control method of the present application is used to control the air purifier. Therefore, the control method of the present application has the same technical effects as the air purifier. For details, please refer to the above text and will not be elaborated here.
[0165] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, determining the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier according to the hair length of the pet includes:
[0166] Determine whether the hair length of the pet is within the first preset value x1, where x1 < 3 cm;
[0167] If so, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, where 0 < y1 ≤ 1 / 3.
[0168] With the above settings, when it is determined that the hair length of the pet is within the first preset value x1, x1 < 3 cm, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is very short. Therefore, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is set to the first value y1, 0 < y1 ≤ 1 / 3, that is, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 is opened less than or equal to one-third, which can meet the required air purification intensity and avoid setting the opening degree of the air inlet 121 too large, resulting in too high operating power of the air purifier and generating a large operating noise.
[0169] Specifically, the first preset value x1 can be 1 cm, 2 cm, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0170] The first value y1 can be 1 / 6, 1 / 5, 1 / 4, 1 / 3, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0171] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, after determining whether the hair length of the pet is within the first preset value x1, it includes:
[0172] If not, determine whether the hair length of the pet is within the second preset value x2, where 3 cm ≤ x2 ≤ 7 cm;
[0173] If so, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, where 1 / 3 < y2 ≤ 1 / 2.
[0174] With the above settings, when it is determined that the hair length of the pet is within the second preset value x2, 3 cm ≤ x2 ≤ 7 cm, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is relatively long. Therefore, the opening degree 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 degree 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 setting the opening degree of the air inlet 121 too small or too large, resulting in insufficient air purification intensity or too high operating power of the air purifier.
[0175] Specifically, the second preset value x2 can be 3 cm, 4 cm, 5 cm, 6 cm, 7 cm, etc. The second value y2 can be 5 / 12, 1 / 2, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0176] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, after the step of determining whether the hair length of the pet is within the second preset value x2, it includes:
[0177] If the answer is no, determine whether the hair length of the pet is at a third preset value x3, where x3 > 7 cm;
[0178] If it is, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is at a third value y3, where 1 / 2 < y3 ≤ 1.
[0179] With the above settings, when it is determined that the hair length of the pet is at the third preset value x3, where x3 > 7 cm, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is very long. Therefore, the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is set to the third value y3, where 1 / 2 < y3 ≤ 1, that is, the opening degree 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 insufficient purification intensity of the air purifier due to too small an opening degree of the air inlet 121.
[0180] Specifically, the third preset value x3 can be 8 cm, 9 cm, 10 cm, etc. The third value y3 can be 3 / 4 or 1, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0181] As Figure 7 shown, in some embodiments, the control method of the air purifier further includes:
[0182] Obtain the operating gear of the air purifier;
[0183] Determine the operating power of the air purifier according to the operating gear of the air purifier and the opening degree of the air inlet 121.
[0184] With the above settings, the operating power of the air purifier is associated with the operating gear of the air purifier and the opening degree 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 degree of the air inlet 121, thereby keeping the purification intensity of the air purifier within a reasonable range.
[0185] 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.
[0186] As Figure 8 shown, in some embodiments, determining the operating power of the air purifier according to the operating gear of the air purifier and the opening degree of the air inlet 121 includes:
[0187] Determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is at a first value y1, where 0 < y1 ≤ 1 / 3;
[0188] If it is, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is at the first gear;
[0189] If it is, the operating power of the air purifier is w1, where 0 < w1 ≤ 10%.
[0190] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is very short. Then, further determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w1, where 0 < w1 ≤ 10%. That is, at this time, setting a relatively small operating power can meet the purification intensity requirements.
[0191] Specifically, the operating power w1 can be 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% or 10%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w1 is taken as 10%.
[0192] As Figure 8 shown, in some embodiments, after determining whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it includes:
[0193] If not, determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, where 1 / 3 < y2 ≤ 1 / 2;
[0194] If so, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear;
[0195] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w11, where w11 > w1 and 0 < w11 ≤ 15%.
[0196] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, where y2 > y1, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is relatively long. Then, further determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w11, where w11 > w1 and 0 < w11 ≤ 15%. At this time, slightly increase the operating power so that w11 > w1 can meet the purification intensity requirements.
[0197] Specifically, the operating power w11 can be 3%, 6%, 9%, 12% or 15%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w11 is taken as 15%.
[0198] As Figure 8 shown, in some embodiments, if not, after determining whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, it includes:
[0199] If not, determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3, where 1 / 2 < y3 ≤ 1;
[0200] If so, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear;
[0201] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w111, where w111 > w11 and 0 < w111 ≤ 20%.
[0202] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3, where y3 > y2, it indicates that the hair length of the pet is very long. Then, further determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear. If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w111, where w111 > w11 and 0 < w111 ≤ 20%. At this time, further increase the operating power so that w111 > w11 can meet the purification intensity requirements.
[0203] 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 taken as 20%.
[0204] That is to say, when the operating gear of the air purifier is always in the first gear, the longer the hair length of the pet, the larger the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier, and the corresponding operating power of the air purifier is also larger, so as to ensure that the purification intensity of the air purifier is not too high while meeting the requirements.
[0205] As Figure 9 shown, in some embodiments, if so, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear, it includes:
[0206] If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear;
[0207] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w2, where 10% < w2 ≤ 40%.
[0208] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it indicates that the hair length of the pet 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, where 10% < w2 ≤ 40%. That is, at this time, setting a moderate operating power in the mode of very short hair length and the second gear can meet the purification intensity requirements.
[0209] Specifically, the operating power w2 can be 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35% or 40%, etc., but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w2 is taken as 40%.
[0210] As Figure 9 shown, in some embodiments, if not, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, it includes:
[0211] If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear;
[0212] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w3, where 40% < w3 ≤ 70%.
[0213] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, indicating that the hair length of the pet is very short, and further when it is 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, then the operating power of the air purifier is w3, 40% < w3 ≤ 70%. That is, setting a relatively strong operating power in the mode of very short hair length and the third gear can meet the purification intensity requirements at this time.
[0214] Specifically, the operating power w3 can be 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65% or 70% etc., but not limited to this. In this embodiment, the operating power w3 is taken as 70%.
[0215] Such as Figure 10 shown, in some embodiments, after determining whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the first value y1, it includes:
[0216] If not, determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2;
[0217] If so, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear;
[0218] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w12, w12 > w2 and 15% < w12 ≤ 45%.
[0219] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, indicating that the hair length of the pet is relatively long, and further when it is determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, then the operating power of the air purifier is w12, w12 > w2 and 15% < w12 ≤ 45%. That is, when the hair of the pet becomes longer, resulting in an increase in the opening degree of the air inlet 121 and the same gear, appropriately increase the operating power of the air purifier to enhance the air purification intensity.
[0220] Specifically, the operating power w12 can be 16%, 21%, 26%, 31%, 36% or 45% etc., but not limited to this. In this embodiment, the operating power w12 is taken as 45%.
[0221] Such as Figure 10 shown, in some embodiments, if so, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, it includes:
[0222] If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear;
[0223] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w13, w13 > w3 and 45% < w13 ≤ 80%.
[0224] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, indicating that the hair length of the pet is relatively long, and 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. Then the operating power of the air purifier is w13, where w13 > w3 and 45% < w13 ≤ 80%. That is, setting a relatively strong operating power in the mode of relatively long hair length and the third gear can meet the purification intensity requirement. That is, when the hair of the pet becomes longer, resulting in an increase in the opening degree of the air inlet 121 and the same gear, appropriately increasing the operating power of the air purifier can enhance the air purification intensity.
[0225] 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 taken as 80%.
[0226] As Figure 10 shown, in some embodiments, if not, after determining whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the second value y2, it includes:
[0227] If not, determine whether the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3;
[0228] If it is, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear;
[0229] If it is, the operating power of the air purifier is w112, where w112 > w12 and 20% < w112 ≤ 50%.
[0230] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3, indicating that the hair length of the pet is very long, and it is further determined that the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, then the operating power of the air purifier is w112, where w112 > w12 and 20% < w112 ≤ 50%. When the hair of the pet becomes even longer, resulting in a further increase in the opening degree of the air inlet 121 and the same gear, further increasing the operating power of the air purifier can further enhance the air purification intensity.
[0231] 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 taken as 50%.
[0232] That is to say, when the operating gear of the air purifier is always in the second gear, the longer the hair length of the pet, the larger the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier, and the greater the corresponding operating power of the air purifier, so as to ensure that the purification intensity of the air purifier can meet the requirements without being too high.
[0233] AsFigure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, if so, after determining whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, it includes:
[0234] If not, determine whether the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear;
[0235] If so, the operating power of the air purifier is w113, where w113 > w13 and 50% < w113 ≤ 90%.
[0236] When it is determined that the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier is the third value y3, indicating that the hair length of the pet is very long, and further determining that the operating gear of the air purifier is the third gear, it means that the gear is in the high gear at this time. Then the operating power of the air purifier is w113, where 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 hair length of the pet further increases, resulting in a further increase in the opening degree of the air inlet 121 and the same gear, further increase the operating power of the air purifier to enhance the air purification intensity.
[0237] Specifically, the operating power w113 can be 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% or 90%, etc., but not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the operating power w113 is taken as 90%.
[0238] That is to say, when the operating gear of the air purifier is always in the third gear, the longer the hair length of the pet, the larger the opening degree of the air inlet 121 of the air purifier, and the corresponding operating power of the air purifier is increased, so as to ensure that the purification intensity of the air purifier meets the requirements.
[0239] It can be understood that the first gear < the second gear < the third gear, which can be understood as low, medium, and high gears in sequence. At each gear, there is a corresponding operating power set for different opening degrees of the air inlet 121, so as to realize the refined control of the operating power of the air purifier according to the different hair lengths of the pet.
[0240] In some embodiments, obtaining the operating gear of the air purifier includes: obtaining the operating gear of the air purifier according to the user input instruction.

[0242] In some embodiments, obtaining the operating gear of the air purifier includes:
[0243] Obtaining the air quality index;
[0244] Determine the operating gear of the air purifier according to the air quality index.
[0245] By determining the operating gear of the air purifier based on the obtained 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 there is no need for the user to input instructions, which simplifies the operation and improves the intelligence.
[0246] In some embodiments, determining the operating gear of the air purifier according to the air quality index includes:
[0247] Based on the air quality index within the first value range, the operating gear of the air purifier is the first gear;
[0248] Based on whether the air quality index is within the second value range, where the second value range > the first value range, the operating gear of the air purifier is the second gear, and the second gear > the first gear;
[0249] Based on the air quality index within the third value range, where 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.
[0250] Through the above settings, the larger the air quality index, the worse the air quality, and the higher the corresponding operating gear of the air purifier, thus ensuring that the air purification intensity meets the purification needs.
[0251] 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 30mg; the second value range can be that the PM2.5 content per cubic meter is greater than 30mg and less than 120mg; the third value range can be that the PM2.5 content per cubic meter is greater than or equal to 120mg.
[0252] Of course, in other embodiments, the air quality index can also be the PM10 content per cubic meter of air, etc., not limited to the above settings.
