[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments of the present invention and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. 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 scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an air conditioner control system is provided. Refer to Figure 1 the structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the device of the present invention as shown. The air conditioner control system may include: an air quality detection device and a control device.
[0029] The air quality detection device is configured to collect the condensed water generated during the operation of the air conditioner and detect the condensed water to determine the content of the target analyte in the condensed water.
[0030] The target analytes include particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, pathogens, other secondary pollutants, etc. During the formation of condensed water, these pollutants in the air will be enriched. When the air containing particulate matter, volatile organic compounds and pathogens flows through the evaporator, these substances will passively accumulate in the condensed water, making the concentration of pollutants in the condensed water relatively high. Compared with the situation where the concentration of the target substances in the air is low, it is more conducive to detection and improves the accuracy of detection.
[0031] The user or the air conditioning system can set the pollutants to be detected, which can be one or more. After obtaining the content of the target pollutant, the system will generate an air quality detection report accordingly, which covers basic detection information, pollutant detection data, health risk assessment, treatment suggestions, etc. The basic detection information includes basic information such as the detection time and location, clarifying the specific indoor environmental scenario corresponding to this detection, so as to facilitate the user to understand the time and space range to which the detection results apply. The pollutant detection data details the specific data of various detected pollutants, such as the concentration of particulate matter, the content of volatile organic compounds, and the detection of pathogens. The health risk assessment combines the detection data and uses technical means such as machine learning algorithms to evaluate the health risks of the indoor environment. According to the concentration levels of different pollutants, it judges the possible impacts of the current air quality on human health, such as whether there are risks of triggering respiratory diseases, allergic reactions, etc. The treatment suggestions are targeted treatment suggestions based on the detection results and health risk assessment. If the pollutant content is detected to exceed the standard, it is recommended to turn on the sterilization function of the air conditioner and adjust the air conditioner operation parameters, such as wind speed, temperature, humidity, etc., to optimize the indoor environment; it may also provide a personalized environment adjustment plan for the user according to the specific situation to help the user improve the indoor air quality.
[0032] Compared with traditional air samples, using the air conditioner condensate as a sample can simplify the sampling and detection process. Traditional air detection often requires complex sample pretreatment steps, while using the condensate generated during the operation or self-cleaning mode of the air conditioning system as a sample does not require complex treatment of the air, reduces the operation links, reduces the errors caused by complex operations, and also improves the detection efficiency.
[0033] The control device is used to control the air conditioner to execute a preset sterilization mode when the content of the target detected substance exceeds a set threshold.
[0034] When the pollutant content is detected to exceed the set value, turning on the sterilization function of the air conditioner can directly reduce indoor pollutants, reduce health risks, optimize the indoor air quality, and also play a protective role for the air conditioner itself and extend its service life.
[0035] In some embodiments, the control device is further used to control the air conditioner to execute a preset self-cleaning mode to generate condensate after the air conditioner receives a preset instruction. The air quality detection device includes a sample collection unit, and the sample collection unit is used to collect the condensate generated during the process of the air conditioner executing the preset self-cleaning mode.
[0036] The preset instruction is an instruction used to control the air conditioner for bacteria detection and sterilization. After the air conditioner receives the preset instruction, it first collects condensate, detects the pollutant content in the condensate, and determines whether to perform sterilization according to the detection results.
[0037] The self-cleaning mode is used to generate condensed water on the surface of the evaporator of the air conditioner. The specific process steps include frosting, defrosting, and drying. Frosting occurs when the air conditioner enters the cooling mode, the compressor starts, and the surface temperature of the evaporator rapidly decreases. When the surface temperature of the evaporator is lower than the ambient dew point temperature, water vapor in the air will frost on the surface of the evaporator. At the same time, the frost layer will freeze and wrap the attachments such as dust and dirt on the surface of the evaporator and in the air. Frosting usually lasts for several minutes until a uniform layer of frost forms on the surface of the evaporator. Defrosting is when the air conditioner switches to the heating mode and heats the surface of the evaporator through the heating function. The frost layer on the surface of the evaporator quickly melts, and at the same time, the frozen dust and dirt are washed down together. The condensed water and impurities will be discharged through the drain pipe and collected by the sample collection unit. Drying is when the air conditioner enters the natural air-drying mode or quickly dries the surface of the evaporator through an auxiliary electric heating device.
[0038] During self-cleaning, the air conditioner can be set to the high wind gear to increase the air volume entering the air conditioner. The dust in the air entering the air conditioner will accumulate on the condenser, and then more sample substances can actively adhere to the condensed water. The concentration of pollutants in the condensed water is relatively high, which is conducive to more accurate subsequent detection and analysis.
[0039] In some embodiments, the air quality detection device further includes a sample processing unit, and the sample processing unit is used to perform a filtering operation and / or a concentration operation on the condensed water collected by the sample collection unit; the filtering operation is used to remove impurities in the condensed water; the concentration operation is used to increase the concentration of the target analyte in the condensed water.
[0040] The sample processing unit plays an important role in removing impurities and enriching the target substance throughout the detection process, and can effectively improve the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection. A filtering module and a concentration module are provided in the sample processing unit. The filtering module is used to perform a filtering operation on the condensed water, and the concentration module is used to enrich the target substance in the condensed water on the basis of the condensed water processed by the filtering module, improving the sensitivity and efficiency of the detection.
[0041] The filtering module can be composed of filter membranes with different pore sizes. These filter membranes have specific filtering precisions according to different materials and pore sizes. When the condensed water sample passes through, the filter membranes with different pore sizes can block impurities with different particle sizes respectively. The large-pore filter membrane first intercepts larger particle impurities, such as dust debris; the small-pore filter membrane further filters out tiny particles to ensure the preliminary purification of the sample and improve the accuracy and reliability of the detection.
[0042] The concentration module can adopt evaporation concentration technology to evaporate the water in the sample by heating and increase the concentration of the target substance. It can also adopt centrifugal concentration technology, using the centrifugal force generated by the high-speed rotation of the centrifuge to make the target substance gather and concentrate under the action of centrifugal force. It can also adopt freeze concentration technology, based on reducing the temperature to make the water crystallize, and realizing the concentration of the target substance after removing the ice crystals. The system will automatically select the appropriate technology according to the properties of the substance to be measured. By enriching the target substance in the condensate water, the problem of difficult accurate detection due to the low concentration of the target substance is solved, and the detection sensitivity and efficiency are greatly improved, enabling the detection results to more truly reflect the indoor air quality status.
[0043] In some embodiments, the number of the sample collection units is the same as the number of the sample processing units, and the sample collection units and the sample processing units are in one-to-one correspondence; the air quality detection device can simultaneously detect the contents of different target analytes in the condensate water.
[0044] The system can simultaneously detect the contents of multiple pollutants, and different pollutants have different physical and chemical properties. If detected together, they may interact with each other, produce cross-reactions, and interfere with the accuracy of the detection results. Therefore, in order to avoid interference with the detection results caused by the mutual influence between each pollutant, the detection of each pollutant is carried out in a separate set of sample collection units and sample processing units. And multiple detections are carried out in parallel, which can greatly shorten the detection time. If a failure or abnormal detection occurs in a certain detection, it only affects the detection of the corresponding pollutant, and other units can still work normally, ensuring the overall reliability of the detection system.
[0045] In some embodiments, the control device is further configured to control the operating parameters of the air conditioner according to the content of the target analyte in the condensate water.
[0046] The air conditioner can adjust the operating parameters of the air conditioner in real time according to the air quality detection results to optimize the indoor environment. The operating parameters include wind speed, temperature, humidity, etc.
[0047] For the control of the wind speed, when the concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10 are higher than the set threshold, such as when the PM2.5 concentration ≥ 75 μg / m 3 ³, first increase the fresh air intake of the air conditioner's external circulation, increase the speed and flow of outdoor fresh air entering the room, and dilute the concentration of suspended particles in the room; at the same time, adjust the internal circulation wind speed to the high gear to accelerate the circulation and filtration of air between the air conditioner filter and the purification module, so that the air passes through the purification component multiple times per unit time, improving the interception and adsorption efficiency of PM2.5 and PM10; when the particle concentration drops to 35 μg / m 3Next, gradually reduce the wind speed to the medium and low speed gears to reduce energy consumption and noise. In some embodiments, when the concentrations of formaldehyde and TVOC are detected to exceed the standard, increase the fresh air ventilation frequency, quickly exhaust the indoor air containing gaseous pollutants, and increase the internal circulation wind speed to allow the air to fully contact with the activated carbon filter and photocatalyst purification module in the air conditioner, etc., to strengthen the adsorption and decomposition of formaldehyde and TVOC; if the CO2 concentration is too high, first increase the fresh air introduction wind speed and ventilation volume to reduce the indoor CO2 concentration, and at the same time appropriately increase the internal circulation wind speed to promote uniform air circulation and avoid local CO2 accumulation.
[0048] For temperature control, when it is hot in summer and the air quality meets the standard, on the premise of ensuring human thermal comfort, moderately raise the air conditioning cooling temperature by 1 - 2 °C, such as from 24 °C to 26 °C, to reduce the air conditioning energy consumption; if the concentration of gaseous pollutants such as formaldehyde is detected to rise at this time, because the volatilization of formaldehyde accelerates in a high-temperature environment, the module will appropriately lower the temperature to about 24 °C to slow down the formaldehyde volatilization speed, and at the same time increase the fresh air volume and wind speed to exhaust the volatilized formaldehyde. In some embodiments, when it is cold in winter, if the indoor CO2 concentration is too high, while increasing the fresh air introduction volume, correspondingly raise the air conditioning heating temperature to avoid a sudden drop in indoor temperature due to the introduction of a large amount of low-temperature fresh air, which affects comfort; if serious particulate pollution is detected, during the heating process, the wind speed will be adjusted to ensure that while the air is efficiently filtered, the heat can be evenly distributed to all corners of the room.
[0049] For humidity control, when the indoor relative humidity < 30%, it may cause problems such as dryness of the respiratory mucosa and static electricity, and some particulate matter is more likely to suspend. At this time, if the air quality is good, start the humidification function to raise the humidity to the appropriate range; if there are gaseous pollutants, the wind speed will be appropriately adjusted during the humidification process to ensure that the gaseous pollutants will not affect human health due to concentration changes under humidity changes, and at the same time maintain the air purification effect. In some embodiments, when the relative humidity > 70% and the microbial indicators such as mold spores and bacteria are detected to rise, immediately start the dehumidification function to lower the indoor humidity to the comfortable range of 40% - 60%; at the same time, increase the internal circulation wind speed to accelerate air flow, speed up the water evaporation speed, and destroy the living environment of molds and bacteria. If particulate pollution is detected in the air quality at this time, the filter screen filtration and fresh air ventilation will be strengthened synchronously during the dehumidification process to avoid the aggravation of particulate suspension caused by the decrease in humidity.
[0050] Adopting differential wind speed, temperature, and humidity adjustment strategies for different types of air quality problems such as particulate matter, gaseous pollutants, and microorganisms can effectively reduce the harm of pollutants to the human body.
[0051] In some embodiments, the structure of the air conditioning system of the present invention is as Figure 3As shown, it includes: a sample collection module, a sample processing module, a multimodal sensing module, an intelligent control module, and an air-conditioning disinfection and sterilization module.
[0052] The structures of the sample collection module and the sample processing module are as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown. The sample collection module includes a sample container 1, a sample container stage 4, a first motor 6, and a second motor 7. There are two through holes 5 on the sample container stage 4, and a sample container 1 is placed in each through hole. The top of the sample container 1 is provided with a number of notches in geometric shapes, arranged in a geometric array along the edge, for fixedly placing a detection chip 8 for detecting pollutants. The sample container 1 is also used to store condensed water, and each sample container 1 is only used to detect one pollutant, so as to avoid detection interference caused by detecting multiple pollutants in the same sample container and affecting the accuracy of the detection result. The first motor 6 is used to control the movement of the sample container stage 4, and the second motor 7 is used to control the movement of the sample container 1. Controlling the movement of the sample container 1 is used to load detection chips for different types of pollutants or multiple detection chips of the same type to achieve the detection of multiple pollutants or repetitive detection. Controlling the movement of the sample container stage 4 is used to switch between the detection state and the non-detection state. When in the non-detection state, the air conditioner can normally discharge condensed water, and when in the detection state, the condensed water is collected for detection.
[0053] The sample processing module includes a filtering device 2 and a concentrating device 3. The filtering device 2 is composed of filter membranes with different pore sizes and is used to preprocess the sample to filter out impurities in the sample. The concentrating device 3 is used to enrich the target substances in the condensed water to improve the sensitivity and efficiency of detection. The technologies adopted by the concentrating device 3 include but are not limited to evaporation concentration technology, centrifugal concentration technology, or freeze concentration technology.
[0054] The multimodal sensing module includes a detection chip, a signal sensing module, and an edge computing module. A variety of probes for targeting analytes are provided on the detection chip. The signal sensing module is placed perpendicular to the detection chip to facilitate real-time collection of detection signals. The signal sensing module includes but is not limited to spectral sensing and / or color sensors, etc. The edge computing module includes a processor, a memory, a communication component, a power management component, an interface component, and a security component. The processor is responsible for analyzing and processing the detection data. Combining machine learning algorithms, it can quickly identify abnormal data and generate an air quality report. The communication component is used to transmit the detection results to the user terminal in real time. The power management component adopts a low-power design and energy recovery technology to ensure the long-term stable operation of the system. The security component protects data security through encryption technology and a firewall to prevent network attacks and data leaks.
[0055] The intelligent control module is used to adjust the operating parameters of the air - conditioning system in real - time according to the air quality detection results, including but not limited to wind speed, temperature, humidity, etc., to optimize the indoor environment. This module is also equipped with an adaptive algorithm, which can provide personalized environment adjustment solutions according to the user's health status and environmental needs. In addition, this module supports remote control functions, and users can view and manage the air quality anytime and anywhere through the mobile APP or web interface.
[0056] The air - conditioner disinfection and sterilization module is used to disinfect and sterilize the air - conditioning system to ensure the health and safety of the system. The disinfection and sterilization technologies adopted include but not limited to ultraviolet disinfection, plasma disinfection, photocatalyst disinfection, ozone disinfection, filter disinfection and chemical disinfection technologies.
[0057] Figure 6 It is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of the air quality detection method based on condensate water of the present invention, as Figure 6 shown, this method includes: Step 1 to Step 4.
[0058] Step 1, after the air - conditioner receives the user's instruction, it turns on the self - cleaning mode and forms condensate water. At this time, pollutants in the air enter the air - conditioner through the air inlet and adsorb on the surface of the condensate water.
[0059] Step 2, the sample collection module starts to collect the condensate water. After the condensate water is collected enough, the sample processing module starts to filter and concentrate the condensate water.
[0060] Step 3, the multi - modal sensing module conducts multiple detections on the condensate water, and simultaneously detects the contents of multiple target substances. The edge - computing module analyzes and processes the detection signals to generate an air quality report. The intelligent control module judges whether the content of the target substance exceeds the safety threshold according to the detection results.
[0061] Step 4, if the content of the target substance exceeds the safety threshold, the intelligent control module starts to disinfect and sterilize the air.
[0062] Adopting the technical solution of the present invention, the air - conditioner control system includes an air quality detection device and a control device. The air quality detection device is used to collect the condensate water generated during the operation of the air - conditioner and detect the condensate water to determine the content of the target detection substance in the condensate water; the control device is used to control the air - conditioner to execute a preset sterilization mode when the content of the target detection substance exceeds the set threshold. Thus, by using the condensate water generated by the air - conditioning system as the detection sample and determining whether to sterilize according to the content of the target detection substance in the condensate water, efficient and accurate air quality detection is achieved, the timeliness of disinfection and sterilization is improved, a good indoor environment is created, and the health of users is guaranteed.
[0063] According to the embodiment of the present invention, a control method for an air - conditioner corresponding to the air - conditioner is also provided, asFigure 2 Flow schematic diagram of an embodiment of the method of the present invention as shown. The control method of this air conditioner may include: step S110 to step S140.
[0064] At step S110, after the air conditioner receives a preset instruction, control the air conditioner to execute a preset self-cleaning mode to generate condensed water.
[0065] Before executing the self-cleaning mode, use a position sensor to detect whether the detection chip is correctly installed in place. The detection chip is installed in the notch of the geometric shape on the top of the sample container, and the sensor judges whether the detection chip is loaded by detecting the physical position change of the detection chip. If the sensor detects that the detection chip is not correctly installed, the system will issue an alarm prompt and pause the subsequent operations to ensure the accuracy of the detection.
[0066] After it is determined that the detection chip is correctly installed, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, control the sample container to rotate through the second motor, sequentially load other detection chips, and move the detection chips to the specified detection positions, and then the air conditioner starts the self-cleaning mode. The surface of the base material of the detection chip is modified with specific probes for capturing target substances. The base material of the detection chip includes but is not limited to non-woven fabric, polydimethylsiloxane, polycarbonate, polymethyl methacrylate, etc.
[0067] At step S120, collect the condensed water generated during the process of the air conditioner executing the preset self-cleaning mode.
[0068] In some embodiments, the process of collecting condensed water further includes a process of judging whether the water level of the condensed water meets the standard, specifically including: during the process of the air conditioner executing the preset self-cleaning mode, judge whether the water level of the collected condensed water is less than the preset water level; if the water level of the collected condensed water is less than the preset water level, control the air conditioner to continue to execute the preset self-cleaning mode; if the water level of the collected condensed water is not less than the preset water level, control the air conditioner to stop executing the preset self-cleaning mode.
[0069] The sample container installed in the through hole on the sample container stage in the sample collection module is used to collect condensed water, and the liquid level sensor monitors the water level in real time. If the water level does not meet the standard, control the air conditioner to enter the self-cleaning mode to generate condensed water until the water level meets the standard.
[0070] A sufficient amount of condensed water sample is the key to ensuring the accuracy of the detection results. If the condensed water is too little, the amounts of various pollutants contained therein, such as particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, pathogens, etc., will also be correspondingly small, which may cause the true contents of these substances to not be accurately detected during the detection, resulting in deviations in the detection results. Only when the water level meets the standard and the concentrations of various pollutants in the sample can better represent the actual indoor air quality conditions, the detection results will be more accurate and reliable.
[0071] When the water level of the condensed water reaches the preset water level, the sensor triggers a signal. The system controls the sample collection module to reset, stops collecting the condensed water, and prevents over-collection from affecting the detection results.
[0072] At step S130, the condensed water is detected to determine the content of the target analyte in the condensed water.
[0073] The specific probes on the detection chip specifically bind to the target substance, generating a detection signal. The signal detection device collects the detection signal in real time. The multimodal sensing module simultaneously detects various target substances such as particulate matter, VOCs, and pathogens to ensure the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the detection. The edge computing module analyzes and processes the detection signal, combines machine learning algorithms, identifies abnormal data, generates an air quality report, and evaluates the health risks of the indoor environment.
[0074] In some embodiments, in step S130, the specific process of detecting the condensed water to determine the content of the target analyte in the condensed water includes: preprocessing the condensed water to obtain the preprocessed condensed water; the preprocessing includes a filtering operation and / or a concentration operation, the filtering operation is used to remove impurities in the condensed water, and the concentration operation is used to increase the concentration of the target analyte in the condensed water; detecting the content of the target analyte in the preprocessed condensed water to obtain the content of the target analyte.
[0075] The condensed water sample passes through a filtering device to remove large particle impurities. According to the properties of the substance to be detected, a suitable concentration method is automatically selected, including but not limited to evaporation concentration, centrifugal concentration, freeze concentration and other technologies to enrich the target substance. Then the filtered and concentrated sample is detected.
[0076] Filtration and concentration complement each other and provide support for the comprehensive detection of various pollutants. Filtration ensures the purity of the sample and enables subsequent detection to be unaffected by impurities; concentration improves the detectability of low-concentration pollutants. The combination of the two can more comprehensively detect various pollutants such as particulate matter, pathogens, and volatile organic compounds in the condensed water, providing richer data for the accurate assessment of indoor air quality.
[0077] At step S140, when the content of the target analyte exceeds the set threshold, control the air conditioner to execute a preset sterilization mode.
[0078] Based on the detection results, the intelligent control module determines whether the content of the target substance exceeds the preset safety threshold. If the detected substance content exceeds the standard, the system triggers an alarm and initiates the disinfection and sterilization process. If the detected substance content exceeds the standard, the intelligent control module activates the air conditioner disinfection and sterilization module, using technologies such as ultraviolet disinfection, plasma disinfection, or ozone disinfection. Adjust the operating parameters of the air conditioning system to optimize the disinfection and sterilization effect. Through the mobile phone APP or web interface, users can view the disinfection status in real time and obtain personalized environmental adjustment suggestions. After completing all detections and processes, the system resets and prepares for the next detection. The detection chips are withdrawn in sequence, and the sample container and the stage return to their positions to ensure the normal operation of the system.
[0079] Figure 7 It is a flowchart of another embodiment of the air quality detection method based on condensate water of the present invention, as Figure 7 shown, this method includes: Step 11 to Step 13.
[0080] Step 11, after the air conditioning system receives a user instruction, it determines whether the detection chip is loaded. If the detection chip is not fully loaded, the sample container is rotated by the second motor to sequentially load other detection chips. If the detection chip has been loaded, the air conditioner turns on the self-cleaning mode and executes Step 12.
[0081] Step 12, during the self-cleaning process, it determines whether the water level in the sample container reaches the standard. If the water level does not reach the standard, continue to control the sample collection module to collect condensate water. If the water level reaches the standard, control the sample collection module to reset and filter and concentrate the condensate water in the sample container.
[0082] Step 13, the multi-modal sensor detects multiple pollutants in the filtered and concentrated condensate water and generates a detection signal. The edge computing module processes the detection signal to obtain the content of the detected substance. Determine whether the content of the detected substance exceeds the standard. If the content of the detected substance exceeds the standard, perform disinfection and sterilization operations. If the content of the detected substance does not exceed the standard, end the detection.
