The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing embodiments of this application only and is not intended to limit this application.

[0035] The outdoor fan control method provided in this application embodiment can be implemented by the server or the outdoor air conditioner unit alone, or by the server and the outdoor air conditioner unit working together. In some embodiments, the outdoor air conditioner unit or the server can implement the outdoor fan control method provided in this application embodiment by running a computer program. For example, the computer program can be a native program or software module in an operating system; it can be a native application (APP), that is, a program that needs to be installed in the operating system to run, such as a client that supports virtual scenes, such as a game APP; it can also be a mini-program, that is, a program that only needs to be downloaded into a browser environment to run; or it can be a mini-program that can be embedded in any APP. In short, the above-mentioned computer program can be any form of application, module or plugin.

[0036] The following uses an outdoor unit of an air conditioner as an example to illustrate the control method of the outdoor fan provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0037] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating an embodiment of the outdoor fan control method provided in this application.

[0038] This embodiment provides a control method for an outdoor fan, which includes the following steps.

[0039] S1: During the operation of the outdoor fan, obtain the operating parameters of the outdoor fan in the current time period.

[0040] S2: Based on the operating parameters of the outdoor fan during the current time period and the number of times the target object appeared within the preset range of the outdoor fan during the historical time periods before the current time period, determine the current operating mode of the outdoor fan; the current operating mode is forward rotation mode or reverse rotation mode.

[0041] S3: Controls the outdoor fan to operate according to the current operating mode.

[0042] The outdoor fan control method provided in this embodiment determines whether the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is forward rotation mode or reverse rotation mode based on the operating parameters of the outdoor fan and the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan. This improves the single operating mode of the outdoor fan, reduces the phenomenon of the outdoor fan blowing directly on the target object, and enhances the comfort of the target object.

[0043] In one embodiment, an outdoor air conditioning unit is provided, comprising an outdoor fan, a compressor, an outdoor coil, a detection module, and a controller. The outdoor fan, compressor, and detection module are each signal-connected to the controller, and the compressor is connected to the outdoor fan via the outdoor coil. Multiple detection modules can be provided, and these modules can have different functions. For example, a first detection module can detect the distance between a passing target object and the outdoor fan, thereby determining whether the passing target object is within a preset range of the outdoor fan.

[0044] The first detection module can be a radar detector, an infrared sensor, or similar device. A radar detector emits high-frequency electromagnetic waves (such as microwaves) towards the target area. When these electromagnetic waves encounter the target object, they are reflected, thus detecting the distance to the target object. An infrared sensor is a device that uses infrared light (electromagnetic waves with wavelengths from 760nm to 1mm) to achieve environmental perception and target detection. It detects the distance to the target object based on the thermal radiation characteristics of the target object or the reflection / blocking effect of the infrared signal.

[0045] The second detection module can be used to detect the AC current input to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0046] The third detection module can be used to detect the current in the compressor phase.

[0047] The fourth detection module can be used to detect the temperature of the outdoor coil, that is, the exhaust temperature of the compressor.

[0048] Specifically, the specific implementation method for obtaining the operating parameters of the outdoor fan in step S1 during the current time period is as follows.

[0049] During the operation of the outdoor fan, various detection modules monitor different components of the outdoor unit to obtain its operating parameters. These parameters include at least one of the following: compressor phase current, AC current, and outdoor coil temperature. Monitoring the compressor phase current enables overcurrent protection; monitoring the outdoor coil temperature enables overtemperature protection; and monitoring the AC current enables overcurrent protection for the outdoor unit.

[0050] After each detection module collects the operating parameters of the outdoor fan, it transmits them to the controller. The controller obtains and analyzes the operating parameters of the outdoor fan in the current time period and executes steps S2 and S3.

[0051] Specifically, the specific implementation method for determining the current operating mode of the outdoor fan in step S2 based on the operating parameters of the outdoor fan during the current time period and the number of times the target object appeared within the preset range of the outdoor fan during the historical time periods before the current time period is as follows.

[0052] The current operating mode is either forward rotation or reverse rotation. Forward rotation mode means the outdoor fan rotates to transfer indoor air to the outside; reverse rotation mode means the outdoor fan rotates to change the airflow direction or to transfer outdoor airflow in the opposite direction to the indoor airflow.

[0053] In one embodiment, in response to the outdoor fan's operating parameters exceeding a set threshold during the current time period, the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode.

[0054] Specifically, if at least one of the compressor phase current, AC current, and outdoor coil temperature of the outdoor fan exceeds a corresponding set threshold during the current time period, the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode. For example, when the compressor phase current of the outdoor fan exceeds a first current threshold, the compressor phase current exceeds a second current threshold, or the outdoor coil temperature exceeds a temperature threshold, it indicates that the load on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is large, which will affect the cooling and heating effect of the air conditioner, and the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode. The first current threshold can be 5.5A, 6A, 6.5A, etc., the second current threshold can be 7.5A, 8A, 8.5A, etc., and the temperature threshold can be 105℃, 110℃, 115℃, etc., and these thresholds can be set according to actual conditions.

[0055] In one embodiment, if the number of times the target object appears within a preset range of the outdoor fan in a historical time period prior to the current time period does not exceed a preset number, then the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be the forward rotation mode.

[0056] In one specific embodiment, the historical time period is the previous time period adjacent to the current time period.

[0057] In one specific embodiment, the current time period is the i-th time period of the m-th day; the historical time period is the i-th time period of the n-th day; m > n > 0, and m and n are integers.

[0058] The target object can be one or multiple. This embodiment uses multiple target objects as an example for detailed explanation. When there are multiple target objects, the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan can be directly counted, without distinguishing between different target objects. The target object can be an animal, etc.

[0059] In one specific embodiment, in response to the fact that the number of times the target object appears within a preset range of the outdoor fan in the previous time period adjacent to the current time period does not exceed a preset number, the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode. The preset range of the outdoor fan can be within 1 meter of the outdoor fan.

[0060] In one specific embodiment, the current time period is the i-th time period of the m-th day. In response to the fact that the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan during the i-th time period of the m-1-th day does not exceed the preset number, the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be the forward rotation mode.

[0061] In one specific embodiment, the current time period is the i-th time period of day m. The average number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan during the i-th time period corresponding to days 1 to m-1 is summed and averaged to obtain the average number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan in the historical time period. If the average number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan in the historical time period does not exceed a preset number, then the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode. For example, the preset number can be 25 times, 30 times, 35 times, etc.

[0062] In one embodiment, in response to the fact that the operating parameters of the outdoor fan do not exceed a set threshold during the current time period, and the number of times the target object appears within a preset range of the outdoor fan in the historical time period before the current time period exceeds a preset number, the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be the reverse mode.

[0063] Specifically, if the compressor phase current, AC current, and outdoor coil temperature of the outdoor fan do not exceed the corresponding set thresholds during the current time period, then the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be the reverse mode. For example, if the compressor phase current of the outdoor fan does not exceed the first current threshold, the compressor phase current does not exceed the second current threshold, and the outdoor coil temperature does not exceed the temperature threshold, it indicates that the load on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is small and will not affect the cooling and heating effect of the air conditioner, thus the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be the reverse mode.

[0064] Specifically, the specific implementation method for controlling the outdoor fan to operate according to the current operating mode in step S3 is as follows.

[0065] In one specific embodiment, when the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode through step S2, the outdoor fan is controlled to rotate forward. After the outdoor fan has been operating in forward rotation mode for a preset time, steps S1 and S2 are executed again to continue determining the operating mode of the outdoor fan. The preset time can be the duration of the current time period or can be set according to actual conditions.

[0066] In one specific embodiment, when the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be the reverse mode through the above step S2, the outdoor fan is controlled to reverse, and the operating parameters of the outdoor fan are monitored in real time.

[0067] If the outdoor fan continues to operate in reverse mode for a period of time exceeding a preset time, the outdoor fan will be switched from reverse mode to forward mode for operation.

[0068] If the cumulative time the outdoor fan has been running in reverse mode exceeds a preset time, the outdoor fan will be switched from reverse mode to forward mode for operation.

[0069] In response to a preset time range, the outdoor fan is controlled to operate in forward rotation mode. The preset time range is determined based on the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan during a historical period. If the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan is less than a set number, then the historical period corresponding to the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan is the preset time range. Since the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan is relatively small, the outdoor fan can be controlled to operate in forward rotation mode, which does not affect the cooling and heating effect of the air conditioner, nor does it affect the comfort of the target user. The preset time range can be 00:00-08:00 or 20:00-24:00, and can be set according to the actual situation.

[0070] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a specific embodiment of the outdoor fan control method provided in this application.

[0071] In one specific embodiment, during the operation of the outdoor fan, the compressor phase current, AC current, and outdoor coil temperature are acquired during the current time period; it is then determined whether the compressor phase current, AC current, and outdoor coil temperature exceed the corresponding set threshold.

[0072] If the compressor phase current, AC current, and outdoor coil temperature do not exceed the corresponding set thresholds during the current time period, it indicates that the load on the outdoor unit is relatively low. At the same time, if the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan in the historical time period before the current time period exceeds the preset number, it indicates that the probability of the target object passing close to the outdoor fan during the current time period is relatively high. Therefore, it is determined that the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is reverse mode, and the air blowing direction of the outdoor fan needs to avoid the target object.

[0073] If any one of the compressor phase current, AC current, and outdoor coil temperature exceeds the corresponding set threshold during the current time period, it indicates that the load on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is large, and the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode.

[0074] If the average number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan during the historical period does not exceed the preset number, it indicates that the probability of the target object passing close to the outdoor fan during the current period is low, and the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode.

[0075] In one embodiment, the control method for the outdoor fan further includes the step of detecting the ambient temperature of the outdoor fan.

[0076] In one specific embodiment, when the air conditioner is in heating mode, the ambient temperature of the associated outdoor fan is detected. If the ambient temperature of the outdoor fan is lower than a first temperature threshold, indicating that the outdoor ambient temperature is too low, the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode. If the ambient temperature of the outdoor fan is not lower than the first temperature threshold, steps S2 and S3 can be performed sequentially. The first temperature threshold is 0℃ to 9℃; for example, the first temperature threshold can be 7℃, and can be set according to actual conditions.

[0077] In one specific embodiment, when the air conditioner is in cooling mode, the ambient temperature of the associated outdoor fan is detected. If the ambient temperature of the outdoor fan is greater than a second temperature threshold, indicating that the outdoor ambient temperature is too high, the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is determined to be forward rotation mode. If the ambient temperature of the outdoor fan is not greater than the second temperature threshold, steps S2 and S3 can be performed sequentially. The second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold, and the second temperature threshold can be between 40°C and 50°C, for example, 45°C, and can be set according to actual conditions.

[0078] The outdoor fan control method provided in this embodiment determines whether the current operating mode of the outdoor fan is forward rotation mode or reverse rotation mode based on the operating parameters of the outdoor fan and the number of times the target object appears within the preset range of the outdoor fan. This improves the single operating mode of the outdoor fan, reduces the phenomenon of the outdoor fan blowing directly on the target object, and enhances the comfort of the target object.
