It should be understood that those of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that the present invention can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not described in detail to avoid unnecessary details from obscuring the description of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed in this application.

[0046] The embodiments of the present application provide a control method, device, refrigerator, and computer-readable storage medium for a refrigeration system, which will be described in detail below respectively.

[0047] As Figure 1 shown, the embodiments of the present application propose a refrigeration system. As Figure 2As shown, the refrigeration system is applied to a dual-system refrigerator 100. The refrigeration system includes a compressor 60, a condenser 70, a liquid distributor 10, a refrigerating evaporator 40, and a freezing evaporator 50. The compressor 60, the condenser 70, and the liquid distributor 10 are sequentially connected; the refrigerating evaporator 40 is connected to the liquid distributor 10 through a first pipe interface 21, and the freezing evaporator 50 is connected to the liquid distributor 10 through a second pipe interface 31. Both the first pipe interface 21 and the second pipe interface 31 are provided on the liquid distributor 10, and the first pipe interface 21 is arranged lower than the second pipe interface 31 so that there is a height difference between the two, and the height difference is configured to be adjustable. In the refrigeration system of the embodiment of the present application, when the refrigerant liquid level in the liquid distributor 10 is relatively low, the refrigerant can only enter the refrigerating evaporator 40 through the first pipe interface 21, absorb heat and evaporate in the refrigerating evaporator 40, and provide a refrigeration effect for the refrigerating compartment 110. When the refrigerant liquid level in the liquid distributor 10 is relatively high, the refrigerant can enter the refrigerating evaporator 40 through the first pipe interface 21 or enter the freezing evaporator 50 through the second pipe interface 31. Since the first pipe interface 21 is lower than the second pipe interface 31, the pressure at the first pipe interface 21 is greater, so that the refrigerant distributed to the refrigerating evaporator 40 is relatively more.

[0048] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the height difference between the first pipe interface 21 and the second pipe interface 31 is configured to be adjustable, so that the distribution amount of the refrigerant can be adjusted to adapt to different requirements of freezing and refrigeration. For example, the second pipe interface 31 extends into the cavity 12 of the liquid distributor 10, and a movable sleeve 32 is sleeved outside the second pipe interface 31. The movable sleeve 32 is configured to slide along the extending direction of the second pipe interface 31, and the second pipe interface 31 is connected to the inside of the cavity 12 through the movable sleeve 32. As Figure 3 shown, the liquid distributor 10 in the refrigeration system proposed in the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, the movable sleeve 32 is sleeved at the second pipe interface 31. When the movable sleeve 32 moves, the inlet of the movable sleeve 32 serves as the inlet for the refrigerant to enter the second pipe interface 31, and has a height difference from the refrigerant liquid level, so that the distribution of the refrigerant can be adjusted, so that the refrigeration system can adapt to more refrigeration requirements; when more refrigerant needs to be distributed to the freezing evaporator 50, the height difference between the second pipe interface 31 and the refrigerant liquid level can be lowered.

[0049] For another example, in some embodiments, the first pipe interface 21 extends into the cavity 12 of the liquid distributor 10, and there is also a movable sleeve 32 on the first pipe interface 21. That is, the height difference between the first pipe interface 21 and the second pipe interface 31 can be adjusted by adjusting the liquid level height at the refrigerant inlet 11 of the first pipe interface 21.

[0050] In an embodiment, a first throttling element 20 is provided between the liquid distributor 10 and the refrigerating evaporator 40, and a second throttling element 30 is provided between the liquid distributor 10 and the freezing evaporator 50. The first throttling element 20 and the second throttling element 30 are capillary tubes or expansion valves.

[0051] The refrigeration principle of the refrigeration system provided by the embodiment of the present application is as follows: The compressor 60 compresses the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the condenser 70 through a pipeline. In the condenser 70, the high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant is condensed and then enters the liquid distributor 10 (it can also enter the dryer filter 80 and then enter the liquid distributor 10). When the refrigerant liquid level in the liquid distributor 10 is low, the refrigerant can only enter the first capillary tube through the first pipe interface 21, and after passing through the first capillary tube, it enters the refrigerating evaporator 40, where it absorbs heat and evaporates to provide refrigeration for the refrigerating compartment 110. When the refrigerant liquid level in the liquid distributor 10 is high, the refrigerant can enter the first capillary tube through the first pipe interface 21 or enter the second capillary tube through the second pipe interface 31. Since the first pipe interface 21 is lower than the second pipe interface 31, the pressure at the first pipe interface 21 is greater, so that more refrigerant is distributed to the refrigerating evaporator 40; the refrigerant after passing through the first capillary tube enters the refrigerating evaporator 40, where it absorbs heat and evaporates to provide refrigeration for the refrigerating compartment 110; the refrigerant passing through the second capillary tube enters the freezing evaporator 50, where it absorbs heat and evaporates to provide refrigeration for the freezing compartment 120. The gaseous refrigerant evaporated in the refrigerating evaporator 40 and the freezing evaporator 50 returns to the compressor 60 through the refrigerant branch to complete a refrigeration cycle. By adjusting the height difference between the two, the distribution of the refrigerant can be adjusted to adapt to different working conditions, so that the refrigerator 100 can meet the normal refrigeration and freezing requirements.

[0052] In the above embodiment, the refrigerator 100 can be a direct-cooling refrigerator 100, as Figure 2 shown. The refrigerator 100 can also be an air-cooling refrigerator 100. A refrigerating compartment 110 and a freezing compartment 120 are provided inside the cabinet of the refrigerator 100. The refrigerating evaporator 40 is configured to provide cooling capacity to the refrigerating compartment 110; the freezing evaporator 50 is configured to provide cooling capacity to the freezing compartment 120. The refrigerator 100 further includes a controller, which is used to execute to implement the control method of the refrigeration system provided in the embodiment of the present application.

[0053] As Figure 3The structure of a liquid distributor 10 is exemplified. The liquid distributor 10 includes a wall 13, a refrigerant inlet 11, and a cavity 12 defined by the wall 13. A first pipe interface 21 is provided at the bottom of the wall 13, and the refrigerant inlet 11 is provided at the top of the wall 13. A second pipe interface 31 extends into the cavity 12 and is slidably connected to a movable sleeve 32. The movable sleeve 32 can be driven by a motor through a linear motion mechanism to adjust the height difference.

[0054] Combined with the refrigeration system of the above embodiments and as Figure 4 shown, an embodiment of the present application proposes a control method for a refrigeration system. As Figure 4 shown, the control method includes:

[0055] S100, when the compressor stops operating, obtain the first real-time refrigeration temperature of the refrigerated compartment;

[0056] S200, when the first real-time refrigeration temperature reaches the startup point temperature, control the compressor to turn on;

[0057] S300, obtain the freezing temperature of the freezer compartment and the second real-time refrigeration temperature of the refrigerated compartment;

[0058] S401, if the freezing temperature is greater than the first preset temperature, adjust the height difference to decrease;

[0059] S402, if the freezing temperature is less than the second preset temperature, adjust the height difference to increase; the first preset temperature is greater than the second preset temperature;

[0060] S500, when the second real-time refrigeration temperature reaches the refrigeration shutdown point temperature, control the compressor to turn off.

[0061] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, by setting the first pipe interface lower than the second pipe interface, the refrigerated evaporator can be allocated more refrigerant; and the temperature of the refrigerated compartment is used as the judgment index for turning on or off the compressor, that is, when the compressor stops operating, if the first real-time refrigeration temperature of the refrigerated compartment reaches the startup point temperature, the compressor turns on, and at this time the refrigeration system starts to refrigerate; and the cold quantity supply of the freezer compartment is controlled by the freezing temperature; when the freezing temperature is greater than the first preset temperature, at this time the temperature of the freezer compartment is relatively high, then the height difference is adjusted to decrease to increase the refrigerant flow rate into the freezer evaporator; and when the freezing temperature is less than the second preset temperature, the temperature of the freezer compartment is relatively low, and at this time the height difference is adjusted to increase to reduce the refrigerant flow rate into the freezer evaporator, in order to make the compressor stop when the second real-time temperature in the refrigerated compartment reaches the refrigeration shutdown point temperature, and meet the refrigeration requirements of both freezing and refrigeration at the same time.

[0062] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, using the temperature of the refrigerated compartment as the index for controlling the start-up and shutdown of the compressor can avoid the problem of overcooling in the refrigerated compartment and freezing of refrigerated food materials (vegetables, fruits) caused by using the temperature of the frozen compartment as the index. Moreover, in the actual application process, the temperature in the frozen compartment is relatively more stable, while the temperature of the refrigerated compartment is more affected by the ambient temperature. Therefore, the temperature of the refrigerated compartment is used as the index for controlling the start-up and shutdown of the compressor. The temperature adjustment of the frozen compartment is achieved by comparing the temperature of the frozen compartment with the pre-set first preset temperature and second preset temperature when the compressor is running, and then adjusting the refrigerant amount allocated to the frozen evaporator.

[0063] In some embodiments, when the freezing temperature is between the second preset temperature and the first preset temperature, the height difference is the basic height difference; when the height difference is the basic height difference and the compressor runs until it shuts down, the temperature in the frozen compartment can basically or can reach the set freezing temperature. For example, after a refrigeration cycle is completed, the frozen compartment reaches the set freezing temperature; during the process of the refrigeration system entering the next refrigeration cycle, the temperature in the frozen compartment is in a steady-state change (for example, the frozen compartment is not opened and the ambient temperature is stable). When entering the next refrigeration cycle, the temperature in the frozen compartment rises from the set freezing temperature to between the second preset temperature and the first preset temperature. At this time, the height difference is the basic height difference, and without adjusting the height difference, it can meet the requirement that when the second real-time refrigeration temperature reaches the refrigeration shutdown point temperature and the compressor shuts down, the temperature in the frozen compartment can basically or can reach the set freezing temperature to ensure the freezing effect.

[0064] If the frozen compartment is in a non-steady-state change (such as opening the frozen compartment) or the refrigerated compartment is in a non-steady state, the height difference will change based on the basic height difference; for example, when the freezing temperature is higher than the first preset temperature, the height difference decreases based on the basic height difference; when the freezing temperature is lower than the second preset temperature (for example, the temperature of the refrigerated compartment quickly reaches the start-up point temperature while the freezing temperature has not yet risen to the second preset temperature temporarily), the height difference increases based on the basic height difference, so as to ensure that when the second real-time refrigeration temperature reaches the refrigeration shutdown point temperature and the compressor shuts down, the temperature in the frozen compartment can basically or can reach the set freezing temperature to ensure the freezing effect.

[0065] That is, in some embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the control method further includes:

[0066] If the freezing temperature is less than the first preset temperature and greater than the second preset temperature, the height difference is the basic height difference;

[0067] S401, if the freezing temperature is greater than the first preset temperature, adjust the height difference to decrease based on the basic height difference;

[0068] S402, if the freezing temperature is less than the second preset temperature, adjust to increase the height difference on the basis of the basic height difference.

[0069] In the above embodiments, the basic height difference is a set index of the refrigeration system, which is determined through experiments on the performance of the refrigeration system, and thus is not specifically limited.

[0070] As an alternative implementation of the above embodiment, obtaining the freezing temperature of the freezing compartment includes: obtaining the freezing temperature of the freezing compartment when the compressor is turned on. That is, in the embodiment, the adjustment of the height difference is determined according to the freezing temperature of the freezing compartment when the compressor is turned on. If the freezing temperature is higher than the first preset temperature, adjust the height difference to decrease; if the freezing temperature is lower than the second preset temperature, adjust the height difference to increase, so as to control the temperature in the freezing compartment during the refrigeration process.

[0071] As an alternative implementation of the above embodiment, the control method further includes: obtaining the ambient temperature and / or the refrigeration gear; determining the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature according to the ambient temperature and / or the refrigeration gear. In the embodiment, the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature are variables associated with the refrigeration gear and / or the ambient temperature, so as to ensure that the freezing compartment has different gear adjustment effects and / or the adaptability to ambient temperature changes. In the embodiment, a mapping relationship between the ambient temperature and / or the refrigeration gear and the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature is pre-stored, and this mapping relationship can be a table, a formula, etc. This mapping relationship is obtained through performance tests on the refrigeration system, in order to meet the freezing requirements while achieving the refrigeration effect.

[0072] For example, in some embodiments, the refrigeration gears are normal freezing and deep freezing, and the ambient temperature is divided into low temperature (below 10°C), normal temperature (10 - 25°C), and high temperature (above 25°C). The following is an example of a mapping relationship:

[0073] Normal freezing Deep freezing Low temperature <![CDATA[T 11 / T 21 > <![CDATA[T 12 / T 22 > Normal temperature <![CDATA[T 13 / T 23 > <![CDATA[T 14 / T 24 > High temperature <![CDATA[T 15 / T 25 > <![CDATA[T 16 / T 26 >

[0074] In the above mapping table, T 11 represents the first preset temperature when the ambient temperature is low and the refrigeration gear is normal freezing, T 21 represents the second preset temperature when the ambient temperature is low and the refrigeration gear is normal freezing, and so on. The above are only some examples. According to the different requirements of the refrigerator for temperature control accuracy and reliability, the refrigeration gears can be set to different gears, the ambient temperature can be divided into different range intervals, and thus the number of the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature is also different.

[0075] As an alternative implementation of the above embodiment, the difference between the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature is 2°C. In some embodiments, the magnitude of the difference determines the control accuracy of the refrigeration system. The smaller the difference, the more accurate the temperature control of the freezer compartment, but the corresponding control reliability will decrease. Therefore, in order to balance both temperature control accuracy and reliability, the difference between the first preset temperature and the second preset temperature is 2°C.

[0076] As an alternative implementation of the above embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, if the freezing temperature is greater than the first preset temperature, the adjustment of reducing the height difference includes:

[0077] S4011, if the freezing temperature is greater than the first preset temperature and less than the third preset temperature, adjust the height difference to reduce the first height;

[0078] S4012, if the freezing temperature is greater than the third preset temperature, adjust the height difference to reduce the second height and / or control the compressor to run at an increased speed; wherein, the second height is greater than the first height.

[0079] In the embodiment, when the refrigeration system is refrigerating, the temperature in the freezer compartment is higher than the first preset temperature but lower than the third preset temperature. At this time, adjust the height difference to reduce the first height. And when the refrigeration system is refrigerating, the temperature in the freezer compartment may be even higher, such as exceeding the set third preset temperature. At this time, it is necessary to increase the cooling speed of the freezer compartment. Therefore, by adjusting the height difference to reduce the larger second height, more refrigerant can be obtained; and / or by increasing the rotation speed of the compressor, the refrigeration efficiency can be improved to meet the freezing demand for the rapid cooling of the freezer compartment.

[0080] In some embodiments, the height difference is reduced by the second height on the basis of the basic height difference. And when the freezing temperature decreases from being greater than the third preset temperature to the freezing temperature being greater than the first preset temperature and less than the third preset temperature, the height difference is adjusted to be reduced by the first height on the basis of the basic height difference; further, when the freezing temperature decreases from being greater than the first preset temperature to being less than the first preset temperature and greater than the second preset temperature, the height difference is adjusted to the basic height difference.

[0081] As an alternative implementation of the above embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, if the freezing temperature is less than the second preset temperature, the adjustment of increasing the height difference includes:

[0082] S4021, if the freezing temperature is less than the second preset temperature and greater than the fourth preset temperature, adjust the height difference to increase the third height;

[0083] S4022. If the freezing temperature is less than the fourth preset temperature, adjust the height difference to increase the fourth height and / or control the compressor to run at a reduced speed; the fourth height is greater than the third height.

[0084] In an embodiment, when the refrigeration system is refrigerating, the temperature in the freezing compartment is lower than the second preset temperature but higher than the fourth preset temperature. At this time, adjust the height difference to increase the third height. And when the refrigeration system is refrigerating, the temperature in the freezing compartment may be even lower, for example, lower than the set fourth preset temperature. At this time, it is necessary to slow down the cooling speed of the freezing compartment to adapt to the change of the refrigerated temperature. Therefore, by adjusting the height difference to increase a larger fourth height, less refrigerant can be obtained; and / or by reducing the rotational speed of the compressor.

[0085] As an alternative implementation of the above embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the outlet of the refrigerated evaporator is communicated with the inlet of the freezing evaporator, and the outlet of the freezing evaporator is communicated with the inlet of the compressor. In an embodiment, the refrigerant flowing out of the refrigerated evaporator can flow into the freezing evaporator to supplement the refrigerant amount in the freezing evaporator. For example, in some embodiments, the temperature of the freezing compartment meets the freezing requirement, and at this time, the refrigerated compartment needs to be refrigerated.
