Description

[0002] When people use air conditioners at night, they usually set a temperature that is relatively comfortable for the human body to sleep, neither too cold nor too hot, and mostly set the temperature between 24°C and 27°C. Within this temperature range, the body feels more comfortable. Currently, the main function of the sleep mode of air conditioners is to control the compressor frequency and the speed of the indoor fan. By reducing the compressor frequency and the speed of the indoor fan, the temperature is maintained at the set temperature. However, these two controls will cause a large change in the outlet air temperature, thereby causing fluctuations in the indoor temperature, affecting the temperature control accuracy of the indoor temperature, and further causing a large change in the indoor environmental temperature, making it impossible to maintain a relatively stable temperature. It may cause the user to wake up due to heat or cold, and cannot meet the user's need for a stable temperature at night. Summary of the Invention

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the present invention provides an air conditioner control method, which includes: obtaining the real-time outdoor temperature and the real-time indoor temperature, determining whether the real-time outdoor temperature is within a set temperature range, and determining whether the real-time temperature difference between the real-time indoor temperature and the user-set temperature is within a set temperature difference range; if it is within the set temperature range and within the set temperature difference range, controlling the movement of the air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner to adjust the air inlet volume of the air inlet 1; wherein, the set temperature range at least includes a first set temperature range, a second set temperature range and a third set temperature range, and the set temperature difference range at least includes a first set temperature difference range, a second set temperature difference range and a third set temperature difference range.

[0029] The air conditioner control method of the present invention obtains the real-time outdoor temperature and the real-time indoor temperature, determines whether the outdoor temperature is within the first set temperature range, the second set temperature range and the third set temperature range, and determines whether the real-time temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the user-set temperature is within the first set temperature difference range, the second set temperature difference range and the third set temperature difference range. Then, according to the set temperature range where the real-time outdoor temperature is located and the set temperature difference range where the real-time temperature difference is located, it controls the movement of the air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner to accurately adjust the opening degree of the air inlet plate 30, so as to adjust the air inlet volume of the air inlet 1 to maintain the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature, thereby enabling more refined control of the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, reducing the unnecessary operation of the compressor and the internal fan, avoiding large fluctuations in the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, improving the comfort of users, and thus solving the problem that the existing air conditioner cannot meet the user's need for a stable temperature at night.

[0030] The air conditioner control method of the present invention reduces the change in the rotational speed of the indoor fan or the change in the compressor frequency. By adjusting the air inlet volume of the air conditioner to maintain the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature, it reduces the unnecessary operation of the compressor and the internal fan, not only improves the energy efficiency of the air conditioning system, but also reduces the wear of system components, prolongs the service life of the air conditioner, can more effectively reduce unnecessary energy consumption, reduces noise, and greatly improves the user's sleep environment.

[0031] The air conditioner control method of the present invention changes the way of maintaining the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature by changing the rotational speed of the indoor fan or the frequency of the compressor in the previous sleep mode. By controlling the movement of the air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner to adjust the air inlet volume of the air inlet 1 to maintain the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature, and then dynamically adjusting the opening degree of the air inlet plate 30 based on the real-time outdoor temperature and the real-time indoor temperature, accurately controlling the air inlet volume of the air inlet 1 and the heat exchange amount of the air conditioner, reducing the change in the rotational speed of the indoor fan or the frequency of the compressor, avoiding large fluctuations in the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, and better maintaining the stability of the indoor temperature.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the set temperature difference range, at least three air inlet plates 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner are controlled to move, so that the air inlet plates 30 can be switched between the open working mode, the closed working mode and the set air inlet angle working mode, so as to adjust the air intake of the air inlet 1. Wherein, when the included angle between the extending direction of the air inlet plate 30 and the extending direction of the air inlet 1 is 90°, the air inlet plate 30 is in the open working mode; when the included angle between the extending direction of the air inlet plate 30 and the extending direction of the air inlet 1 is 0°, the air inlet plate 30 is in the closed working mode; when the included angle between the extending direction of the air inlet plate 30 and the extending direction of the air inlet 1 is the set air inlet angle θ, the air inlet plate 30 is in the set air inlet angle working mode, and the value range of the set air inlet angle θ is 10° ≤ θ ≤ 80°.

[0033] During specific implementation, by dynamically controlling at least three air inlet plates 30, the movement of each air inlet plate 30 can be controlled according to the set temperature range where the outdoor real-time temperature is located and the set temperature difference range where the real-time temperature difference is located, so as to accurately adjust the opening degree of each air inlet plate 30, so that the air inlet plates 30 can be switched between the open working mode, the closed working mode and the set air inlet angle working mode, so as to adjust the air intake of the air inlet 1, which can ensure that the air intake can quickly maintain the indoor temperature to the user-set temperature and avoid energy waste caused by excessive adjustment.

[0034] Optionally, the set air inlet angle θ is 45°; wherein, the extending direction of the air inlet 1 is perpendicular to the air intake direction of the air inlet 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, after obtaining the duration of the indoor real-time temperature t1 and the duration of the outdoor real-time temperature t1, the indoor real-time temperature and the outdoor real-time temperature are obtained again, and it is judged whether the outdoor real-time temperature is within the set temperature range, and it is judged whether the real-time temperature difference between the indoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is within the set temperature difference range.

[0036] During specific implementation, the indoor real-time temperature and the outdoor real-time temperature are obtained by timing and cycling, and it is re-judged whether the outdoor temperature is within the first set temperature range, the second set temperature range and the third set temperature range, and it is re-judged whether the real-time temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the user-set temperature is within the first set temperature difference range, the second set temperature difference range and the third set temperature difference range. Then, according to the set temperature range where the current outdoor real-time temperature is located and the set temperature difference range where the current real-time temperature difference is located, the air inlet plates 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner are re-controlled to move, so as to accurately adjust the opening degree of the air inlet plates 30, so as to dynamically adjust the air intake of the air inlet 1, and avoid the opening degree of the air inlet plates 30 being too large or too small and unable to effectively control the outlet air temperature of the air conditioner, thereby ensuring that the air conditioner can always maintain the stability of the indoor temperature.

[0037] Optionally, t1 is 1 min.

[0038] In this embodiment, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the first set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the first set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the closed working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the closed working mode; or, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the first set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the second set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the set air inlet angle working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the closed working mode; or, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the first set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the third set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the closed working mode.

[0039] During specific implementation, the outdoor real-time temperature is within the first set temperature range, and at this time, the difference between the outdoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is small:

[0040] When the real-time temperature difference is within the first set temperature difference range, the real-time temperature difference is small, and the air conditioner will automatically fully open the first air inlet plate 30 to ensure appropriate air circulation, while keeping the second and third air inlet plates 30 closed to avoid unnecessary energy consumption; when the real-time temperature difference is within the second set temperature difference range, the real-time temperature difference is large, and the air conditioner will further open the second air inlet plate 30 to the set air inlet angle to increase the air intake volume and improve the heat exchange efficiency; when the real-time temperature difference is within the third set temperature difference range, the real-time temperature difference is even larger, and the air conditioner will fully open the second air inlet plate 30 to further increase the air circulation and heat exchange and quickly adjust the indoor temperature to near the user-set temperature.

[0041] In this embodiment, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the second set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the first set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the set air inlet angle working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the closed working mode; or, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the second set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the second set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the closed working mode; or, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the second set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the third set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the set air inlet angle working mode.

[0042] During specific implementation, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the second set temperature range, the difference between the outdoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is relatively large:

[0043] When the real-time temperature difference is within the first set temperature difference range, the real-time temperature difference is relatively small. The air conditioner fully opens the first air inlet plate 30, the second air inlet plate 30 is opened to the set air inlet angle, and the third air inlet plate 30 is closed to maintain an appropriate air circulation and heat exchange efficiency and prevent excessive cooling or heating. When the real-time temperature difference is within the second set temperature difference range, the real-time temperature difference is relatively large. The air conditioner further fully opens the second air inlet plate 30 to increase the air intake volume and heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioner and quickly respond to temperature changes. When the real-time temperature difference is within the third set temperature difference range, the real-time temperature difference is even larger. The air conditioner further opens the third air inlet plate 30 to the set air inlet angle to maximize the heat exchange efficiency, achieve rapid temperature control, and ensure that the indoor temperature quickly returns to near the user-set temperature.

[0044] In this embodiment, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the third set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the first set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the closed working mode; or, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the third set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the second set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the set air inlet angle working mode; or, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the third set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the third set temperature difference range, the first air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, the second air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode, and the third air inlet plate 30 is controlled to be in the open working mode.

[0045] During specific implementation, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the third set temperature range, the difference between the outdoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is even larger:

[0046] When the real-time temperature difference is within the first set temperature difference range, the real-time temperature difference is relatively small. The air conditioner fully opens the first air inlet plate 30 and the second air inlet plate 30, and the third air inlet plate 30 is closed to maintain an appropriate air circulation and heat exchange efficiency and prevent excessive cooling or heating. When the real-time temperature difference is within the second set temperature difference range, the third air inlet plate 30 is opened to the set air inlet angle to increase the air intake volume. When the real-time temperature difference is within the third set temperature difference range, the air conditioner fully opens the third air inlet plate 30 to maximize the heat exchange efficiency and achieve rapid temperature control.

[0047] Specifically, the outdoor real-time temperature is t_out, the real-time temperature difference is Δt, the indoor real-time temperature is T1, and the user-set temperature is T2. Δt = T1 (indoor real-time temperature) - T2 (user-set temperature).

[0048] Optionally, the first set temperature difference range is Δt ≤ 1°, the second temperature difference range is 1° < Δt ≤ 3°, and the third temperature difference range is Δt < 3°; in the cooling mode, the first temperature range is 27° < t_out, the second temperature range is 27° ≤ t_out ≤ 35°, and the third temperature range is 35 < t_out; in the heating mode, the first temperature range is 20° < t_out, the second temperature range is 15 ≤ t_out ≤ 20°, and the third temperature range is t_out < 15°.

[0049] During specific implementation, as Figure 1 shown, when the user goes to bed at night and turns on the air conditioner and presses the "Smart Sleep" button, the air conditioner will automatically adjust intelligently according to the cooling mode without the user having to adjust it at night, thus achieving the best comfort and the best power-saving situation, achieving the dual unity of comfort and economy, and enhancing the competitiveness of the air conditioner.

[0050] Further, after the user presses the "Smart Sleep" button, the air conditioner obtains the indoor real-time temperature and the outdoor real-time temperature, and determines whether the outdoor real-time temperature is within the set temperature range, and determines whether the real-time temperature difference Δt between the indoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is within the set temperature difference range, where Δt = T1 (indoor real-time temperature) - T2 (user-set temperature). For example, after the user turns on the machine at night, the detected outdoor real-time temperature is 33°C, the indoor real-time temperature is 32°C at this time, and the user-set temperature is 27°C. At this time, Δt = 5°C. At this time, the first air inlet panel 30 is fully opened, the second air inlet panel 30 is fully opened, and the third air inlet panel 30 is opened to the set air inlet angle of 45°; after a period of time, the indoor real-time temperature drops to 30°C. At this time, Δt = 3°C. With the outdoor real-time temperature unchanged, the first air inlet panel 30 remains open, the second air inlet panel 30 remains open, and the third air inlet panel 30 closes; after continuing for a period of time, the indoor ambient temperature drops to 28°C. At this time, Δt = 1°C. With the outdoor real-time temperature unchanged, the first air inlet panel 30 remains open, the second air inlet panel 30 is opened to the set air inlet angle of 45°, and the third air inlet panel 30 remains closed.

[0051] If the outdoor real-time temperature changes after the air conditioner is turned on, the number and angle of the opened air inlet plates 30 are selected according to the current temperature. For example, after the air conditioner is turned on, the outdoor real-time temperature is 40°C, the indoor real-time temperature is 35°C, and the user-set temperature is 27°C. At this time, Δt = 8°C, then all three air inlet plates 30 are opened. After a period of time, the outdoor real-time temperature drops to 35°C, and at the same time the indoor real-time temperature also drops to 30°C. At this time, Δt = 3°C, then the first air inlet plate 30 and the second air inlet plate 30 remain open, and the third air inlet plate 30 is closed.

[0052] During specific implementation, as Figure 2 shown, when the user goes to bed at night and turns on the air conditioner and presses the "Smart Sleep" button, the air conditioner will automatically perform intelligent adjustment in the heating mode without the user having to adjust it at night, so as to achieve the best comfort and the best power-saving condition, achieving the dual unity of comfort and economy and enhancing the competitiveness of the air conditioner.

[0053] Furthermore, after the user presses the "Smart Sleep" button, the air conditioner obtains the indoor real-time temperature T1 and the outdoor real-time temperature t_out, and determines whether the outdoor real-time temperature is within the set temperature range, and determines whether the real-time temperature difference Δt between the indoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is within the set temperature difference range, where Δt = T1 (indoor real-time temperature) - T2 (user-set temperature). For example, after the user turns on the air conditioner at night, it is detected that the outdoor real-time temperature is 18°C. At this time, the indoor real-time temperature is 25°C, and the user-set temperature is 27°C. At this time, Δt = 2°C, and the first air inlet plate 30 and the second air inlet plate 30 are fully opened, and the third air inlet plate 30 is closed; after a period of time, at this time the indoor real-time temperature is 26°C, and the user-set temperature is 27°C, then the first air inlet plate 30 is fully opened, the second air inlet plate 30 is opened to the set air inlet angle of 45°, and the third air inlet plate 30 is closed.

[0054] Please refer to Figures 3 to 6 , the present invention provides an air conditioner, which includes: a first temperature detection member for detecting the indoor real-time temperature; a second temperature detection member for detecting the outdoor real-time temperature; a control device of the air conditioner for executing the above-mentioned air conditioner control method; an air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner, and the first temperature detection member and the second temperature detection member are both communicatively connected to the control device of the air conditioner so that the control device of the air conditioner controls the movement of the air inlet plate 30 to adjust the air intake volume of the air inlet 1.

[0055] The air conditioner of the present invention detects the real-time outdoor temperature and the real-time indoor temperature through the first temperature detection component and the second temperature detection component. The control device of the air conditioner can judge whether the outdoor temperature is in the first set temperature range, the second set temperature range, and the third set temperature range, and judge whether the real-time temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the user-set temperature is within the first set temperature difference range, the second set temperature difference range, and the third set temperature difference range. Then, the control device of the air conditioner controls the movement of the air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner according to the set temperature range where the real-time outdoor temperature is located and the set temperature difference range where the real-time temperature difference is located, so as to accurately adjust the opening degree of the air inlet plate 30, adjust the air intake volume of the air inlet 1, thereby enabling more refined control of the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, avoiding large fluctuations in the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, and further maintaining the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature, improving the comfort of the user, thus solving the problem that the air conditioner in the prior art cannot meet the user's need for a stable temperature at night, being able to more effectively reduce unnecessary energy consumption, reduce noise, and greatly improve the user's sleep environment; at the same time, since the control device of the air conditioner dynamically adjusts the opening degree of the air inlet plate 30 based on the real-time outdoor temperature and the real-time indoor temperature, unnecessary energy consumption is avoided. When the real-time temperature difference is small and the real-time outdoor temperature is appropriate, the control device of the air conditioner can reduce the air intake volume to avoid energy waste caused by excessive adjustment, thereby achieving the purpose of energy conservation; at the same time, compared with an air conditioner that relies on reducing the compressor frequency and the indoor fan speed to maintain the indoor temperature at the set temperature, the air conditioner of the present invention reduces the change in the indoor fan speed or the compressor frequency, relies on adjusting the air intake volume of the air conditioner to maintain the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature, reduces the unnecessary operation of the compressor and the fan, not only improves the energy efficiency of the air conditioning system, but also reduces the wear of system components, extends the service life of the air conditioner, and reduces the long-term maintenance and operation costs.

[0056] In this embodiment, there are at least three air inlet plates 30. The three air inlet plates 30 are sequentially covered on the air inlet 1 along the length direction of the air inlet 1 and are adjustably connected to the position of the air inlet 1, so as to move each air inlet plate 30 relative to the air inlet 1, enabling the air inlet plate 30 to switch between the open working mode, the closed working mode, and the set air inlet angle working mode, and adjusting the air intake volume of the air inlet 1.

[0057] Specifically, by setting multiple air inlet plates 30 and being able to independently adjust the opening degree of each air inlet plate 30, the air conditioner can achieve more precise control of the air intake volume, which helps to maintain the stability of the indoor temperature. Especially in the sleep mode that is sensitive to temperature differences, it can flexibly adjust the air intake volume of the air conditioner according to the subtle changes in the real-time indoor and outdoor temperatures. When the real-time indoor and outdoor temperatures change, the control device of the air conditioner will automatically adjust the opening degree of each air inlet plate 30 according to the real-time outdoor temperature and the real-time indoor temperature, and control each air inlet plate 30 to switch between the open working mode, the closed working mode, and the set air inlet angle working mode, ensuring that the air intake volume can quickly maintain the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature and avoiding energy waste caused by excessive adjustment.

[0058] In this embodiment, the air conditioner includes at least three driving members 10 and at least three transmission shafts 20. The three driving members 10 and the three transmission shafts 20 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. The three transmission shafts 20 and the three air inlet plates 30 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. Both ends of each transmission shaft 20 are respectively connected to the corresponding driving member 10 and the corresponding air inlet plate 30, so as to drive the corresponding transmission shaft 20 to rotate around its axis through each driving member 10, so that each air inlet plate 30 moves relative to the air inlet 1.

[0059] Specifically, each air inlet plate 30 includes two interconnected sub-air inlet plates 31, and the end of each transmission shaft 20 is connected to one sub-air inlet plate 31 of the corresponding air inlet plate 30. By equipping each air inlet plate 30 with an independent driving member 10 and a transmission shaft 20, the driving member 10 drives the rotation of the corresponding transmission shaft 20, and then drives the corresponding air inlet plate 30 to move relative to the air inlet 1, realizing flexible control of the air intake volume. Even if one of the driving member 10 and the transmission shaft 20 fails, the remaining air inlet plates 30 can still work normally, ensuring the stable operation of the air conditioner and improving the reliability of the system.

[0060] As Figure 4 shown, the back plate 4 of the air conditioner enables the air conditioner to be fixed on the wall.

[0061] The present invention provides a control device for an air conditioner, which is used to execute the above-mentioned air conditioner control method. The control device of the air conditioner includes: an acquisition unit, which is used to acquire the real-time indoor temperature and the real-time outdoor temperature; a first judgment unit, which is used to judge whether the real-time outdoor temperature is within the set temperature range; a second judgment unit, which is used to judge whether the real-time temperature difference between the real-time indoor temperature and the user-set temperature is within the set temperature difference range; a control unit, which is used to control the movement of the air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner when the real-time outdoor temperature is within the set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the set temperature difference range.

[0062] The control device of the air conditioner of the present invention first obtains the indoor real-time temperature and the outdoor real-time temperature through an acquisition unit, then judges whether the outdoor real-time temperature is within a set temperature range through a first judgment unit, and judges whether the real-time temperature difference between the indoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is within a set temperature difference range through a second judgment unit. Then, when the outdoor real-time temperature is within the set temperature range and the real-time temperature difference is within the set temperature difference range, the control unit controls the driving member 10 to drive the air inlet plate 30 to move, so as to accurately adjust the opening degree of the air inlet plate 30 and adjust the air intake volume of the air inlet 1, thereby enabling more refined control of the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner and avoiding large fluctuations in the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner.

[0063] The present invention provides a non-volatile storage medium, which includes a stored program. When the program runs, it controls the device where the non-volatile storage medium is located to execute the above-mentioned air conditioner control method.

[0064] Specifically, the above storage medium is used to store program instructions for performing the following functions and implementing the following functions: obtaining the outdoor real-time temperature and the indoor real-time temperature, judging whether the outdoor real-time temperature is within a set temperature range, and judging whether the real-time temperature difference between the indoor real-time temperature and the user-set temperature is within a set temperature difference range; if it is within the set temperature range and within the set temperature difference range, then control the movement of the air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner to adjust the air intake volume of the air inlet 1.

[0065] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0066] The air conditioner control method of the present invention obtains the outdoor real-time temperature and the indoor real-time temperature, judges whether the outdoor temperature is within a first set temperature range, a second set temperature range, and a third set temperature range, and judges whether the real-time temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the user-set temperature is within a first set temperature difference range, a second set temperature difference range, and a third set temperature difference range. Then, according to the set temperature range where the outdoor real-time temperature is located and the set temperature difference range where the real-time temperature difference is located, control the movement of the air inlet plate 30 covering the air inlet 1 of the air conditioner to accurately adjust the opening degree of the air inlet plate 30 and adjust the air intake volume of the air inlet 1 to maintain the indoor temperature at the user-set temperature, thereby enabling more refined control of the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, reducing the unnecessary operation of the compressor and the internal fan, avoiding large fluctuations in the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner, improving the comfort of users, and thus solving the problem that the air conditioner in the prior art cannot meet the user's need for a stable temperature at night.
