[0028] The above drawings have shown clear embodiments of the present application, which will be described in more detail later. These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but to illustrate the concept of the present application to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be construed as limiting the present application. On the contrary, the embodiments of the present application include all changes, modifications and equivalents that fall within the spirit and connotation of the appended claims.

[0030] It should be noted that the executor of the air conditioner cleaning control method of this embodiment may be an air conditioner cleaning control device, or may be air conditioning equipment, and the device may be implemented by software and / or hardware.

[0031] Figure 1 is a flow chart of a cleaning control method for an air conditioner according to the first embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0032] S101: Detecting indoor air humidity based on a specified time period.

[0033] The specified time period may be a predefined time period for detecting indoor humidity conditions. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the indoor air humidity may be cyclically detected according to the specified time period.

[0034] As an example, the specified time period may be 24 hours, or 23 hours, or 12 hours, which is not limited here.

[0035] Optionally, a humidity sensor can be used to detect the indoor air humidity, such as a DHT series sensor (such as DHT11 and DHT2) or a SHT series sensor (such as SHT21, SHT25). These sensors can measure the indoor relative humidity with high accuracy and stability, which are not limited here.

[0036] S102: If the air humidity is greater than the humidity threshold, obtain the historical working mode of the air conditioner and the historical start-up time of the air conditioner.

[0037] The humidity threshold may be a threshold of air humidity. It should be noted that if the air humidity is greater than the humidity threshold, it indicates that the current indoor environment is a high humidity environment. If the air humidity is less than or equal to the humidity threshold, it indicates that the current indoor environment is not a high humidity environment.

[0038] It should be noted that in an environment with high air humidity, the air conditioner cavity is prone to breed harmful microorganisms or bacteria such as mold and mites, and may also produce irritating odors. Long-term use of such air conditioners is not good for users' health.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as an example, the humidity threshold may be 80%, 70% or 60%, which is not limited here.

[0040] The historical working mode may be a working mode of the air conditioner under a historical working state.

[0041] The historical working mode may be a cooling mode or a heating mode, which is not limited here.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the working mode of the air conditioner when it was last turned on can be used as the historical working mode.

[0043] The historical startup time may be the startup time when the air conditioner was last started and operated.

[0044] S103: Determine the time difference between the historical power-on time and the current time.

[0045] The time difference may be the time interval between the historical startup time and the current time.

[0046] For example, if the current time is 3:00 pm on November 7, and the historical boot time is 10:00 am on November 6, then it can be determined that the time difference between the historical boot time and the current time is 29 hours, which is not limited here.

[0047] S104: Based on the time difference and the historical working mode, determine whether the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning conditions.

[0048] Among them, the preset cleaning conditions are used to determine whether the air conditioner needs to be sterilized and cleaned.

[0049] As a possible implementation method, if the historical working mode is heating mode and the time difference is greater than the preset time threshold, it can be determined that the air conditioner meets the preset cleaning conditions; if the time difference is not less than the preset time threshold, it can be determined that the air conditioner does not meet the preset cleaning conditions.

[0050] S105: If the air conditioner meets the cleaning condition, control the air conditioner to perform a cleaning working mode within the target cleaning time.

[0051] The target cleaning time may be the time when the air conditioner executes the cleaning working mode to achieve high temperature sterilization. The cleaning working mode may be a mode for sterilizing and cleaning the air conditioner, such as high temperature sterilization and cleaning, thereby effectively killing mold, inhibiting bacterial growth, and improving the cleanliness of the air conditioner.

[0052] It is understandable that if the air conditioner meets the cleaning conditions, the air conditioner can be cleaned immediately, or it can be cleaned within a specified time.

[0053] For example, if the current time is 23:00 and it is detected that the air conditioner meets the cleaning conditions, the one hour between 23:00 and 24:00 can be used as the target cleaning time, thereby achieving real-time cleaning.

[0054] Alternatively, the air conditioner can be cleaned at a specified time, such as between 3 and 4 in the morning, that is, an idle time can be selected as the target cleaning time. When the air conditioner is cleaned during idle time, the impact on the user is small and will not affect the user experience.

[0055] Optionally, the electric heating power can be adjusted to make the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reach a specified temperature, and then maintain the cavity temperature at the specified temperature for a certain period of time (such as 35 minutes, 36 minutes, etc.), and then control the air conditioner to stop running.

[0056] The cavity temperature of the air conditioner may be measured using a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor may be of various types, such as a thermistor, a thermocouple, or an infrared sensor, which is not limited here.

[0057] The designated temperature may be a preset high temperature sterilization temperature. In the disclosed embodiment, the designated temperature may be 56°C, or 55°C, 57°C, or 58°C, and the designated temperature is not limited here.

[0058] As a possible implementation, the temperature sensor in the air conditioning system can first monitor the actual temperature of the cavity and feed this data back to the controller, which can then compare the actual temperature with the set target temperature to determine the temperature difference.

[0059] Furthermore, based on the temperature difference, the controller can adjust the power of the electric heating element accordingly. If the cavity temperature is lower than the set temperature, the controller will increase the electric heating power, and if the cavity temperature is higher than the set temperature, the controller will reduce the electric heating power. As the electric heating power is adjusted, the cavity temperature will change. The temperature sensor will continuously monitor the new temperature and feed the data back to the controller, which will make further adjustments based on the feedback until the cavity temperature reaches the set target temperature.

[0060] Optionally, when it is detected that the room is currently unmanned, the cleaning mode can be executed. Specifically, the image sensor installed on the air conditioning system can be used to perform image recognition in the room to determine whether there is anyone in the room. If no human features are detected in the image taken indoors, it can be determined that the room is unmanned, and then the air conditioner can be sterilized and cleaned.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the indoor air humidity is first detected based on a specified time period, and then if the air humidity is greater than the humidity threshold, the historical working mode of the air conditioner and the historical start-up time of the air conditioner are obtained, and then the time difference between the historical start-up time and the current time is determined, and then based on the time difference and the historical working mode, it is determined whether the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning conditions, and then if the air conditioner meets the cleaning conditions, the air conditioner is controlled to execute the cleaning working mode within the target cleaning time. In this way, the indoor environmental humidity can be detected periodically, and the time when the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode can be adjusted based on the historical working mode of the air conditioner combined with the interval time. By obtaining the historical usage status of the air conditioner, the sterilization and cleaning function is automatically turned on during a specific period of time, which protects the health of users, improves user experience, inhibits bacterial growth, and improves the cleanliness of the air conditioner.

[0062] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a cleaning control method for an air conditioner according to a second embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0063] S201: Detecting indoor air humidity based on a specified time period.

[0064] S202: If the air humidity is greater than a humidity threshold, obtain a historical operating mode of the air conditioner and a historical start-up time of the air conditioner.

[0065] S203: Determine the time difference between the historical power-on time and the current time.

[0066] It should be noted that the specific implementation of steps S201 - S203 may refer to the above embodiment and will not be described in detail here.

[0067] S204: If the historical operating mode is the first mode, and the time difference is greater than or equal to the first time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning condition.

[0068] The first mode represents a working mode in which the air conditioner performs a heating operation.

[0069] Among them, the first mode can be a heating mode, or, if the air conditioner is in automatic mode (or air supply mode, fresh air mode) and performs a heating operation, the automatic mode can also be used as the first mode, which is not limited here.

[0070] As an example, the first time threshold may be 48 hours, or 47 hours, or 49 hours, which is not limited here.

[0071] For example, if the historical working mode is the heating mode and the time difference is 50 hours, which is greater than the first time threshold of 48 hours, it means that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning conditions and is not limited here.

[0072] S205: If the historical working mode is the first mode and the time difference is less than the first time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning condition.

[0073] For example, if the historical working mode is heating mode and the time difference is 40 hours, which is less than the first time threshold of 48 hours, it means that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning conditions and is not limited here.

[0074] S206: If the historical working mode is the second mode and the time difference is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning condition and the second time threshold is less than the first time threshold.

[0075] The second mode represents a working mode in which the air conditioner performs a cooling operation.

[0076] Among them, the second mode can be a cooling mode, or, if the air conditioner is in automatic mode (or air supply mode, fresh air mode) and performs a cooling operation, the automatic mode can also be used as the second mode, which is not limited here.

[0077] As an example, the second time threshold can be 24 hours, or 23 hours, or 25 hours, which is not limited here. It should be noted that if the air conditioner is in cooling operation, the humidity inside the air conditioner cavity is relatively high, which is more likely to breed bacteria. Therefore, the second time threshold that needs to be set needs to be smaller than the first time threshold, that is, to increase the detection frequency under cooling conditions.

[0078] For example, if the historical working mode is cooling mode and the time difference is 25 hours, which is greater than the second time threshold of 24 hours, it means that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning conditions and is not limited here.

[0079] S207: If the historical operating mode is the second mode and the time difference is less than the second time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning condition.

[0080] For example, if the historical working mode is cooling mode and the time difference is 20 hours, which is less than the second time threshold of 24 hours, it means that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning conditions and is not limited here.

[0081] S208: If the air conditioner meets the cleaning conditions, the cavity temperature of the air conditioner is controlled to reach a specified temperature within the target cleaning time.

[0082] The target cleaning time may refer to the time when the air conditioner performs the cleaning working mode.

[0083] The cavity temperature of the air conditioner may be measured using a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor may be of various types, such as a thermistor, a thermocouple, or an infrared sensor, which is not limited here.

[0084] The designated temperature may be a preset high temperature sterilization temperature. In the disclosed embodiment, the designated temperature may be 56°C, or 55°C, 57°C, or 58°C, and the designated temperature is not limited here.

[0085] Optionally, the electric heating power can be adjusted so that the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reaches a specified temperature.

[0086] It should be noted that when the air conditioner cavity temperature is lower than the set temperature, the cavity temperature can be increased by increasing the power of the electric heating element. The electric heating element can be a heating wire or a heating tube, etc., and the temperature is adjusted by controlling its power-on time and current size, which is not limited here.

[0087] Alternatively, the electric heating power and the expansion valve opening may be adjusted to allow the cavity temperature of the air conditioner to reach a specified temperature.

[0088] The expansion valve controls the flow of refrigerant in the air conditioning circulation system. By adjusting the opening of the expansion valve, the flow of refrigerant can be controlled, thereby affecting the working effect of the evaporator and condenser, and then affecting the temperature of the air conditioning cavity. Therefore, by dually adjusting the electric heating power and the opening of the expansion valve, the cavity temperature of the air conditioner can reach the specified temperature faster.

[0089] Specifically, the controller may receive feedback from the temperature sensor and adjust the electric heating power and / or the expansion valve opening according to the difference between the actual temperature and the set temperature so that the air conditioning cavity temperature reaches the specified temperature.

[0090] Alternatively, the electric heating power may be adjusted and the wind shield may be closed so that the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reaches a specified temperature.

[0091] Specifically, by closing or partially closing the air outlet (i.e., the wind shield) in the air conditioning cavity, the air conditioning system can reduce the circulation of external air, thereby increasing the temperature of the air in the cavity. Optionally, the controller can adjust the electric heating power and the opening of the wind shield according to the feedback from the temperature sensor so that the temperature of the air conditioning cavity reaches a specified temperature. By adjusting the electric heating power and closing the wind shield, the air conditioning system can effectively control the temperature of the air conditioning cavity to a specified temperature.

[0092] Alternatively, the electric heating power and the expansion valve opening may be adjusted, and the wind shield may be closed, so that the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reaches a specified temperature.

[0093] Specifically, adjusting the electric heating power, the expansion valve opening, and closing the wind shield is a comprehensive control strategy that can make the temperature of the air conditioning cavity reach the specified set value. When the temperature of the air conditioning cavity is lower than the set temperature, the electric heating power adjustment can increase the power of the electric heating element to increase the cavity temperature. The expansion valve opening adjustment is to control the flow of refrigerant by adjusting the opening of the expansion valve, which affects the working effect of the evaporator and condenser, and then affects the temperature of the air conditioning cavity. By closing or partially closing the air outlet (i.e., the wind shield) in the air conditioning cavity, the circulation of external air by the air conditioning system can be reduced, thereby increasing the temperature of the air in the cavity.

[0094] Specifically, the controller can receive feedback from the temperature sensor and adjust the electric heating power, the expansion valve opening and the wind shield plate opening according to the difference between the actual temperature and the set temperature, so that the air conditioning cavity temperature reaches the specified temperature.

[0095] S209: During the set time, the cavity temperature is maintained at a specified temperature, and then the air conditioner is controlled to stop running.

[0096] The target cleaning time includes the set time.

[0097] The set time may be the time for maintaining the cavity temperature at a specified temperature. It is understandable that by maintaining the cavity temperature at a specified temperature within the set time, sufficient high-temperature sterilization of the interior of the air conditioner can be achieved.

[0098] For example, if the target cleaning time is from 3 to 4 o'clock and the set time is 35 minutes, for example, the cavity temperature of the air conditioner can be first raised to the specified temperature of 56°C from 3 to 3:15, and then the cavity temperature of the air conditioner can be maintained at 56°C between 3:15 and 3:50 (set time 35 minutes), and then the air conditioner can be turned off and the indoor humidity can be tested after the specified time period.

[0099] S210: In response to receiving the cleaning time configuration instruction, configure / update the target cleaning time according to the cleaning time included in the cleaning time configuration instruction.

[0100] The cleaning time configuration instruction is used to configure or update the target cleaning time, and may be an instruction generated by a user operating a terminal.

[0101] The cleaning time information included in the cleaning time configuration instruction can be customized by the user, for example, 3 to 4 in the morning can be set as the cleaning time.

[0102] Specifically, after receiving the cleaning time configuration instruction, the air conditioner can configure / update the target cleaning time according to the cleaning time included in the cleaning time configuration instruction.

[0103] For example, if the original target cleaning time is from 4 to 5 in the morning, and the cleaning time included in the cleaning time configuration instruction is from 3 to 4 in the morning, the target cleaning time can be updated to 3 to 4 in the morning.

[0104] Alternatively, if the target cleaning time is not set in the original air conditioner, after receiving the cleaning time configuration instruction, the air conditioner can configure the target cleaning time to 3 to 4 in the morning based on the cleaning time contained therein, such as 3 to 4 in the morning.

[0105] It should be noted that the above examples are only for illustrative purposes and are not intended to be limiting.

[0106] Figure 3 Another flow chart of the cleaning control method of the air conditioner shown in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, 24 hours can be used as the specified time period, 80% can be used as the humidity threshold, and the indoor air humidity is detected every 24 hours to see if it is greater than the humidity threshold. Then, further judgment is made based on the historical working mode of the air conditioner and the time difference. The first time threshold corresponding to the first mode is 48 hours, and the second time threshold corresponding to the second mode is 24 hours. It should be noted that Figure 3 The flowchart shown is only a schematic illustration and is not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0107] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, first, based on a specified time period, the indoor air humidity is detected. If the air humidity is greater than a humidity threshold, the historical working mode of the air conditioner and the historical power-on time of the air conditioner are obtained, and then the time difference between the historical power-on time and the current time is determined. If the historical working mode is the first mode and the time difference is greater than or equal to the first time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning conditions. If the historical working mode is the first mode and the time difference is less than the first time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning conditions. If the historical working mode is the second mode and the time difference is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning conditions. If the historical working mode is the second mode and the time difference is less than the second time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning conditions. Within the target cleaning time, the cavity temperature of the air conditioner is controlled to reach a specified temperature. Within the set time, the cavity temperature is maintained at the specified temperature. Then, the air conditioner is controlled to end operation. In response to receiving a cleaning time configuration instruction, the target cleaning time is configured / updated according to the cleaning time contained in the cleaning time configuration instruction. Therefore, it is possible to determine whether the air conditioner needs to be cleaned at present based on the time difference between the historical start-up time of the air conditioner and the current time and the preset time threshold. If the time difference is relatively large and greater than the time threshold, it means that the air conditioner needs to be cleaned. Different time difference thresholds are set for the time difference according to different historical working modes, thereby increasing the frequency of cleaning in the cooling mode, reducing the growth of bacteria inside the air conditioner, improving the cleanliness of the indoor air, and periodically detecting the indoor environmental humidity.

[0108] Figure 4 is a block diagram of a cleaning control device for an air conditioner according to the present application, such as Figure 4 As shown, the cleaning control device 400 of the air conditioner includes:

[0109] A detection module 410, for detecting indoor air humidity based on a specified time period;

[0110] An acquisition module 420 is used to acquire a historical operating mode of the air conditioner and a historical startup time of the air conditioner if the air humidity is greater than a humidity threshold;

[0111] A determination module 430, configured to determine a time difference between the historical power-on time and the current time;

[0112] A judgment module 440, configured to judge whether the air conditioner currently meets a preset cleaning condition based on the time difference and the historical working mode;

[0113] The control module 450 is used to control the air conditioner to execute a cleaning working mode within a target cleaning time if the air conditioner meets the cleaning condition.

[0114] Optionally, the judgment module is specifically used to:

[0115] If the historical working mode is the first mode, and the time difference is greater than or equal to the first time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning condition;

[0116] If the historical working mode is the first mode and the time difference is less than the first time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning condition.

[0117] The first mode represents a working mode in which the air conditioner performs a heating operation.

[0118] Optionally, the judgment module is specifically used to:

[0119] If the historical working mode is the second mode, and the time difference is greater than or equal to a second time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning condition, and the second time threshold is less than the first time threshold;

[0120] If the historical working mode is the second mode and the time difference is less than the second time threshold, it is determined that the air conditioner currently does not meet the preset cleaning condition.

[0121] The second mode represents a working mode in which the air conditioner performs a cooling operation.

[0122] Optionally, the control module includes:

[0123] A first control unit, configured to control the cavity temperature of the air conditioner to reach a specified temperature within the target cleaning time;

[0124] The second control unit is used to maintain the cavity temperature at the specified temperature within a set time, and then control the air conditioner to end operation, wherein the target cleaning time includes the set time.

[0125] Optionally, the first control unit is specifically configured to:

[0126] Adjusting the electric heating power so that the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reaches a specified temperature;

[0127] Alternatively, adjusting the electric heating power and the expansion valve opening so that the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reaches a specified temperature;

[0128] Alternatively, adjusting the electric heating power and closing the wind shield plate so that the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reaches a specified temperature;

[0129] Alternatively, the electric heating power and the expansion valve opening are adjusted, and the wind shield is closed, so that the cavity temperature of the air conditioner reaches a specified temperature.

[0130] Optionally, the device further includes:

[0131] The configuration module is used to configure / update the target cleaning time according to the cleaning time included in the cleaning time configuration instruction in response to receiving the cleaning time configuration instruction.

[0132] The execution module is used to execute the cleaning working mode in response to monitoring that the room is currently an unmanned environment.

[0133] In the embodiment of the present application, the indoor air humidity is first detected based on a specified time period, and then if the air humidity is greater than the humidity threshold, the historical working mode of the air conditioner and the historical start-up time of the air conditioner are obtained, and then the time difference between the historical start-up time and the current time is determined, and then based on the time difference and the historical working mode, it is determined whether the air conditioner currently meets the preset cleaning conditions, and then if the air conditioner meets the cleaning conditions, the air conditioner is controlled to execute the cleaning working mode within the target cleaning time. In this way, the indoor environmental humidity can be detected periodically, and the time when the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode can be adjusted based on the historical working mode of the air conditioner combined with the interval time. By obtaining the historical usage status of the air conditioner, the sterilization and cleaning function is automatically turned on during a specific period of time, which protects the health of users, improves user experience, inhibits bacterial growth, and improves the cleanliness of the air conditioner.

[0134] According to an embodiment of the present application, the present application also provides an electronic device, a readable storage medium and a computer program product.
