Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, for example to a control method, device and air conditioner for an air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] Air conditioner indoor units often have louvers at their air outlets. These louvers are configured to rotate within a certain angle to deliver air to different areas of the room, meeting users' airflow needs, such as directing airflow away from or towards people. However, traditional louver assemblies can only perform air guiding functions, which is relatively limited.
[0003] In related technologies, by designing the surface of the oscillating blades into the shape of a golf ball to form a turbulence surface, and by adjusting the shape, size, number and distribution of the grooves and protrusions on the turbulence surface of the oscillating blades, the turbulence surface generates wind resistance when the airflow passes through the turbulence surface, thereby reducing the airflow velocity and turbulent the airflow to achieve a gentle breeze function and prevent cold air from blowing directly on the human body.
[0004] During the implementation of the relevant technology, it was found that the technology has at least the following problems: although designing the surface of the swing blades to form a golf ball shape to create a turbulence surface enables the air conditioner to have a gentle breeze function, since the turbulence mechanism (turbulence surface) is integrated with the swing blades, the gentle breeze function will inevitably be activated during the swing blades' operation, making it impossible to achieve independent control of the gentle breeze function and meet the personalized needs of users.
[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0053] The air conditioner 1 provided in the embodiments of this disclosure is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner 1 includes an indoor unit 10. The indoor unit 10 is used to blow cold air (in cooling mode) or hot air (in heating mode) into the indoor space to regulate the indoor temperature and keep the indoor environment within a comfortable temperature range.
[0054] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, the indoor unit 10 of the air conditioner provided in this embodiment includes a housing 100 and a baffle assembly 200. The housing 100 includes an air outlet 102. The baffle assembly 200 is rotatably disposed on the housing 100. The baffle assembly 200 includes a first baffle member 210, which is located at the air outlet 102 and can rotate relative to the housing 100 to turbulentize the air passing through the air outlet 102. The first baffle member 210 includes a plurality of connected baffle rings 202, allowing air passing through the air outlet 102 to circulate among the baffle rings 202.
[0055] In related technologies, the surface of the oscillating blades is designed in the shape of a golf ball to form a turbulent surface. Although this can achieve airflow disturbance to a certain extent, when the oscillating blade assembly rotates and disturbs the airflow, the turbulent surface comes into contact with the airflow, which can easily cause the airflow to swirl at the air outlet and form turbulence, increasing the operating noise of the air conditioner.
[0056] The air conditioner indoor unit 10 provided in this embodiment achieves a gentle breeze function by providing a turbulence-disrupting component 200 at the air outlet 102 of the housing 100 to turbulent the air passing through the air outlet 102. Specifically, the turbulence-disrupting component 200 includes a first turbulence-disrupting element 210, which is rotatable relative to the housing 100 to disperse the airflow passing through the air outlet 102. Since the first turbulence-disrupting element 210 includes multiple interconnected turbulence-disrupting rings 202, the air passing through the air outlet 102 can circulate among the multiple turbulence-disrupting rings 202, reducing the contact area between the airflow and the turbulence-disrupting surface, thereby reducing the probability of turbulence formation or the degree of turbulence, and thus reducing the noise generated by the air conditioner indoor unit 10 during the turbulence process. Furthermore, compared with related technologies, by setting up a turbulence ring 202 to turbulence the air, the air passing through the air outlet 102 can circulate between multiple turbulence rings 202. Then, by rotating the first turbulence member 210 relative to the housing 100, the airflow circulating between the turbulence rings 202 can be dispersed, further improving the turbulence effect and enhancing the user experience.
[0057] Optionally, combined Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the turbulence assembly 200 also includes a turbulence carrier 220. The turbulence carrier 220 is rotatably disposed on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102. A first turbulence member 210 is disposed on the turbulence carrier 220, and the first turbulence member 210 rotates relative to the housing 100 as the turbulence carrier 220 rotates.
[0058] In this embodiment, the airflow deflector 200 includes an airflow deflector carrier 220 and a first airflow deflector 210. The first airflow deflector 210 is disposed on the airflow deflector carrier 220, which supports and drives the first airflow deflector 210, allowing the first airflow deflector 210 to rotate relative to the housing 100 as the airflow deflector carrier 220 rotates. Since the airflow deflector carrier 220 is rotatably disposed on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102, the first airflow deflector 210 can disperse the airflow passing through the air outlet 102 to achieve airflow deflection and thus realize a gentle breeze function.
[0059] Optionally, combined Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the aerodynamic support 220 includes a first connecting rod 222, which is rotatably mounted on the housing 100. Multiple aerodynamic rings 202 are arranged with their centers at the same location and nested sequentially to form a first aerodynamic element 210. The first connecting rod 222 is connected to the outermost aerodynamic ring 202.
[0060] In this embodiment, multiple deflector rings 202 are arranged with their centers at the same location and nested sequentially to form a first deflector 210. The nesting of the multiple deflector rings 202 allows them to support each other, improving the structural strength of the first deflector 210. Furthermore, the nesting of the multiple deflector rings 202 complicates the airflow path between them. Since the deflector carrier 220 includes a first connecting rod 222, which is connected to the outermost deflector ring 202, the complex airflow path further enhances the deflection effect of the first deflector 210 on the airflow as it rotates relative to the housing 100 with the first connecting rod 222, thus further improving the deflection effect of the first deflector 210.
[0061] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the spoiler ring 202 includes rings, and the radii of the multiple rings increase sequentially from the inner layer to the outer layer of the first spoiler 210.
[0062] In this embodiment, the first spoiler 210 includes multiple spoiler rings 202 with the same center position and nested sequentially, the spoiler rings 202 being circular. From the inner layer to the outer layer of the first spoiler 210, the radii of the multiple rings increase sequentially, so that the multiple rings can form a nested structure, thereby forming a complex airflow path.
[0063] In some embodiments, the spoiler ring 202 includes an elliptical ring extending from the inner layer to the outer layer of the first spoiler 210, wherein the major axis of the inner elliptical ring is the same as the minor axis of the adjacent outer elliptical ring.
[0064] In this embodiment, the first spoiler 210 includes multiple spoiler rings 202 with the same center position and nested sequentially, each spoiler ring 202 being elliptical in shape. From the inner layer to the outer layer of the first spoiler 210, the major axis of the inner elliptical ring is the same as the minor axis of the adjacent outer elliptical ring. By connecting the opposite ends of the major axis of the inner elliptical ring with the opposite ends of the minor axis of the adjacent outer elliptical ring, the nesting of multiple elliptical rings is achieved, forming a nested structure and creating a complex airflow path. Furthermore, the nested structure formed by connecting the opposite ends of the major axis of the inner elliptical ring with the opposite ends of the minor axis of the adjacent outer elliptical ring has asymmetry. This asymmetry further increases the complexity of the airflow path and optimizes the spoiler effect.
[0065] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, multiple turbulence rings 202 are fixedly connected, and the planes on which the multiple turbulence rings 202 are located are the same or adjacent, with a preset angle between the planes on which the turbulence rings 202 are located.
[0066] In this embodiment, multiple turbulence rings 202 are fixedly connected to form a stable first turbulence element 210, thereby improving the structural strength of the first turbulence element 210 and ensuring the stable turbulence effect of the first turbulence element 210.
[0067] In one specific application, multiple baffle rings 202 are fixedly connected and lie on the same plane. A preset gap exists between the multiple baffle rings 202 to allow airflow to pass through. In this embodiment, the first baffle 210 is generally disk-shaped. Due to the preset gap between the multiple baffle rings 202, as the airflow flows through the gaps, the airflow is dispersed as the first baffle 210 rotates relative to the housing 100, thus achieving baffle flow.
[0068] In a specific application, combined Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, multiple turbulence rings 202 are fixedly connected, and the planes containing adjacent turbulence rings 202 form a preset angle. The multiple turbulence rings 202 are nested sequentially, making the first turbulence element 210 spherically shaped. In this embodiment, because the planes containing adjacent turbulence rings 202 form a preset angle, the airflow continuously splits and changes its direction as it flows between the multiple turbulence rings 202, further increasing the complexity of the airflow path and enhancing the turbulence effect of the first turbulence element 210.
[0069] Preferably, the preset included angle is 90°. When the included angle between adjacent turbulence rings 202 is 90°, it can disperse and change the flow direction of the airflow to the maximum extent, break the straight flow of the airflow, and improve the turbulence effect.
[0070] It should be noted that the preset gap and preset angle need to be set by technical personnel according to the actual product equipment and usage requirements. This application does not limit the specific values of the preset gap and preset angle.
[0071] In some embodiments, the plurality of turbulence rings 202 are rotatably connected.
[0072] In this embodiment, multiple turbulence rings 202 are rotatably connected to form a first turbulence element 210. This rotatable connection allows the turbulence rings 202 to rotate relatively independently when subjected to airflow, thereby adapting to the flow state of the airflow and achieving a more refined turbulence effect.
[0073] Optionally, combined Figure 6 As shown, the first spoiler 210 also includes a plurality of connectors 230. The plurality of spoiler rings 202 are fixedly connected or rotatably connected by the connectors 230.
[0074] In this embodiment, the first spoiler 210 includes a plurality of spoiler rings 202 and a plurality of connectors 230. The plurality of spoiler rings 202 are fixedly connected or rotatably connected by the connectors 230 to form the first spoiler 210.
[0075] Optionally, the connector 230 includes a damping element, and the plurality of turbulence rings 202 are rotatably connected via the damping element.
[0076] In this embodiment, the first spoiler 210 includes a plurality of spoiler rings 202 and a plurality of connectors 230. The connectors 230 include damping elements, and the plurality of spoiler rings 202 are rotatably connected via the damping elements. The damping elements are used to provide damping force to prevent relative rotation between the spoiler rings 202 and the damping elements during the rotation of the spoiler rings 202 relative to the damping elements.
[0077] In this embodiment, by configuring the connector 230 as a damping element, the turbulence-disrupting component 200 can better adapt to changes in airflow velocity or the user's personalized needs. Specifically:
[0078] In a practical application, when the force exerted by the airflow on the first deflector 210 is less than or equal to the damping force provided by the damping element, the multiple deflector rings 202 can maintain a stable connection during the rotation of the first deflector 210 relative to the housing 100, thus ensuring a stable deflection effect. When the force exerted by the airflow on the first deflector 210 is greater than the damping force provided by the damping element, the multiple deflector rings 202 can rotate relative to each other during the rotation of the first deflector 210 relative to the housing 100, automatically adapting to the airflow state and achieving a more refined deflection effect.
[0079] In a practical application, the maximum damping force that the damping element can provide can be increased by changing its mass or material, thereby preventing relative rotation between the multiple spoiler rings 202 during the rotation of the first spoiler 210 relative to the housing 100, thus ensuring a stable structure. When it is necessary to change the shape of the first spoiler 210, the angle between the planes where the various spoiler rings 202 are located can be manually adjusted by the user to meet the user's personalized needs.
[0080] Optionally, the first spoiler 210 further includes a limiting portion and a limiting groove. One of the limiting portion and the limiting groove is disposed on the outer side wall of the spoiler ring 202, and the other is disposed on the inner side wall of the spoiler ring 202. Both the limiting portion and the limiting groove are located on the periphery of the connection between the connector 230 and the spoiler ring 202. The limiting portion is used to abut against the limiting groove on the adjacent spoiler ring 202 to limit the position of the spoiler ring 202.
[0081] In this embodiment, by providing a limiting part and a limiting groove, the limiting part can abut against the limiting groove on the adjacent spoiler ring 202, increasing the rotational resistance between adjacent spoiler rings 202 to ensure the stability of the spoiler effect. When multiple spoiler rings 202 are fixedly connected, adding the limiting part and limiting groove further enhances the structural strength of the first spoiler 210, ensuring a stable spoiler effect. When multiple spoiler rings 202 are rotatably connected, adding the limiting part and limiting groove increases the rotational resistance between adjacent spoiler rings 202, preventing excessive rotation from affecting the spoiler effect and generating rotational noise.
[0082] In some embodiments, when the limiting portion is provided on the outer sidewall of the turbulence ring 202, a protrusion is formed on the outer sidewall extending from the inner sidewall of the turbulence ring 202 to form the limiting portion. A groove is formed on the inner sidewall extending from the inner sidewall of the turbulence ring 202 to form a limiting groove. The groove is adapted to the protrusion.
[0083] In some embodiments, when the limiting portion is disposed on the inner sidewall of the turbulence ring 202, a protrusion is formed on the inner sidewall extending from the outer sidewall of the turbulence ring 202 toward the inner sidewall to form the limiting portion. A groove is formed on the outer sidewall extending from the outer sidewall of the turbulence ring 202 toward the inner sidewall to form a limiting groove. The groove is adapted to the protrusion.
[0084] By integrally forming the limiting part, the limiting groove and the turbulence ring 202, the structural strength of the turbulence ring 202 is improved, thereby improving the structural strength of the first turbulence component 210 and the turbulence assembly 200, and improving the reliability of the turbulence assembly 200.
[0085] Optionally, there are multiple limiting parts, which are spaced apart and distributed around the periphery of the connection between the connector 230 and the spoiler ring 202. There are also multiple limiting grooves, which are spaced apart and distributed around the periphery of the connection between the connector 230 and the spoiler ring 202. The multiple limiting parts correspond to the multiple limiting grooves on adjacent spoiler rings 202.
[0086] In this embodiment, by increasing the number of limiting parts and limiting grooves, the rotational resistance between adjacent spoiler rings 202 is increased. When multiple spoiler rings 202 are fixedly connected, the structural strength of the first spoiler 210 is further improved. When multiple spoiler rings 202 are rotatably connected, the rotational resistance between adjacent spoiler rings 202 is further increased.
[0087] Furthermore, by increasing the number of limiting parts and limiting grooves, the fault tolerance of the first spoiler 210 is improved. Even if one of the limiting parts or limiting grooves fails for some reason, the other limiting parts and limiting grooves can still provide rotational resistance, thus improving the fault tolerance of the first spoiler 210.
[0088] Optionally, multiple limiting parts and multiple limiting grooves are evenly distributed at intervals around the connection between the connector 230 and the turbulence ring 202.
[0089] In this embodiment, multiple limiting parts and multiple limiting grooves are evenly distributed around the connection between the connector 230 and the spoiler ring 202, so that when one limiting part and one limiting groove abuts, the remaining limiting parts and grooves can also abut. The evenly distributed limiting parts and grooves improve the structural reliability and stability of the first spoiler 210. This even distribution also allows it to uniformly withstand forces and torques from all directions, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the spoiler ring 202 and the connector 230, and improving the structural reliability and stability of the first spoiler 210.
[0090] Optionally, combined Figure 6As shown, multiple perturbation rings 202 are nested sequentially and rotatably connected. From the outer layer to the inner layer of the first perturbation element 210, the perturbation rings 202 are alternately configured as electromagnet rings 204 and magnet rings 206. By applying a forward or reverse current to the electromagnet ring 204, repulsive or attractive forces are generated between the multiple perturbation rings 202, realizing the switching of the first perturbation element 210 between a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the planes containing adjacent perturbation rings 202 form a preset angle. In the second mode, the planes containing the multiple perturbation rings 202 are the same.
[0091] In this embodiment, the direction of the current when a repulsive force is generated between the multiple current-disrupting rings 202 after applying current to the electromagnet ring 204 is defined as positive. The direction of the current when an attractive force is generated between the multiple current-disrupting rings 202 after applying current to the electromagnet ring 204 is defined as negative. From the outer layer to the inner layer of the first current-disrupting element 210, the multiple current-disrupting rings 202 are alternately configured as electromagnet rings 204 and magnet rings 206, and the multiple current-disrupting rings 202 are rotatably connected, so that the shape switching of the first current-disrupting element 210 can be achieved by applying a positive or negative current to the electromagnet ring 204.
[0092] Specifically, when a positive current is applied to the electromagnet ring 204, a repulsive force is generated between the multiple turbulence rings 202. Under the repulsive force, the angle between the planes containing adjacent turbulence rings 202 gradually increases. When a preset angle (e.g., 90°) is reached, the first turbulence element 210 transforms into its first state. In the first state, the airflow continuously splits and changes its flow direction as it flows between the multiple turbulence rings 202, breaking the straight flow of the airflow and achieving a highly efficient turbulence effect.
[0093] Specifically, when a reverse current is applied to the electromagnet ring 204, an attractive force is generated between the multiple turbulence rings 202. Under the influence of this attractive force, the angle between the planes containing adjacent turbulence rings 202 gradually decreases. When the planes containing the multiple turbulence rings 202 are the same (angle is 0), the first turbulence element 210 transforms into a second form. In the second form, compared to the first form, the degree of flow diversion and change in flow direction during the flow of air between the multiple turbulence rings 202 is reduced, and the turbulence effect is reduced.
[0094] By alternately setting multiple turbulence rings 202 as electromagnet rings 204 and magnet rings 206, the shape of the first turbulence component 210 can be switched by changing the direction of the energized current, thereby realizing the dynamic adjustment of the turbulence effect of the first turbulence component 210, improving the automation level, flexibility of use and user experience of the turbulence component 200.
[0095] In some embodiments, combined with Figures 1 to 4 As shown, there are multiple first turbulence elements 210, which are spaced apart on the turbulence carrier 220 and located at the air outlet 102.
[0096] In this embodiment, the turbulence effect of the turbulence component 200 is further enhanced by increasing the number of first turbulence elements 210. Furthermore, by spaced out multiple first turbulence elements 210, airflow resistance can be reduced, further lowering noise levels.
[0097] Optionally, the airflow turbulence assembly 200 further includes a second airflow turbulence element 240. The second airflow turbulence element 240 is spaced apart from the first airflow turbulence element 210, located at the air outlet 102 and rotatable relative to the housing 100, so as to turbulent the air passing through the air outlet 102.
[0098] In this embodiment, a second airflow deflector 240 is added to turbulent the air passing through the air outlet 102. The second airflow deflector 240, together with the first airflow deflector 210, creates a more complex and varied airflow pattern, further enhancing airflow diffusion and thus improving the deflection effect of the deflection assembly 200.
[0099] In some embodiments, the first deflector 210 and the second deflector 240 are spaced apart from each other on the deflector carrier 220. The first deflector 210 and the second deflector 240 rotate relative to the housing 100 as the deflector carrier 220 rotates.
[0100] Optionally, combined Figure 7 As shown, the second spoiler 240 includes a first end cap 242, a second end cap 246, and a spoiler strip 248. The second end cap 246 is disposed opposite to the first end cap 242. The spoiler strip 248 is disposed between the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246 and extends along the direction from the first end cap 242 toward the second end cap 246. The opposite ends of the spoiler strip 248 are fixedly or rotatably connected to the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246, respectively.
[0101] In this embodiment, the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246, which are disposed opposite to each other, are used to support the deflector strip 248. The deflector strip 248 disperses the airflow passing through the second deflector 240 and reduces the airflow velocity during the rotation of the second deflector 240 relative to the housing 100, thereby achieving deflection. Furthermore, by dispersing the airflow and reducing its velocity using the deflector strip 248, this application achieves deflection. Compared with related technologies, this reduces the contact area between the airflow and the deflector surface, thereby reducing the probability or degree of turbulence formation, and thus reducing the noise generated by the indoor unit 10 of the air conditioner during the deflection process.
[0102] In a specific application, the two ends of the deflector strip 248 are fixedly connected to the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246 respectively, ensuring the structural stability of the second deflector 240 and thus improving the stability of the deflection effect of the second deflector 240.
[0103] In a specific application, the two opposite ends of the deflector strip 248 are rotatably connected to the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246, respectively, so as to allow the deflector strip 248 to rotate relatively independently when subjected to airflow, thereby adapting to the flow state of the airflow and achieving a more refined deflection effect.
[0104] Optionally, combined Figure 7 As shown, there are multiple deflector strips 248. Taking the line connecting the center points of the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246 as the deflector axis, multiple deflector strips 248 are spaced apart between the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246 along the circumferential direction of the deflector axis. The opposite ends of the multiple deflector strips 248 are fixedly or rotatably connected to the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246, respectively.
[0105] In this embodiment, by increasing the number of deflector strips 248, multiple deflector strips 248 are spaced apart between the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246 along the circumferential direction of the deflector axis, thereby increasing the structural complexity of the second deflector 240, increasing the complexity of the airflow path during the flow of air through the second deflector 240, and further improving the deflection effect of the second deflector 240.
[0106] Optionally, the second deflector 240 further includes a guide portion. The guide portion is disposed on the side wall of the deflector strip 248. In this embodiment, by adding a guide portion to the side wall of the deflector strip 248, the airflow passing through the deflector strip 248 is disturbed to change its flow direction, thereby further improving the deflection effect of the second deflector 240.
[0107] A protrusion is formed on the sidewall of the spoiler strip 248 to form a flow guide. In this embodiment, the structural strength and structural stability of the second spoiler 240 are improved by integrally molding the flow guide and the spoiler strip 248.
[0108] Optionally, there are multiple guide sections, which are spaced apart on the sidewall of the deflector strip 248 along its extension direction. In this embodiment, by increasing the number of guide sections, the interference effect on the airflow passing through the deflector strip 248 is further improved, thereby enhancing the deflection effect of the second deflector 240.
[0109] Optionally, combined Figure 7As shown, the second deflector 240 also includes an electromagnet shaft 252. The electromagnet shaft 252 extends along the line connecting the center points of the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246. The two opposite ends of the electromagnet shaft 252 are connected to the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246, respectively. The deflector strip 248 includes a magnet strip 254. A first groove 244 is formed on the first end cap 242. The first groove 244 extends along the radius of the first end cap 242. A second groove is formed on the second end cap 246. The two opposite ends of the magnet strip 254 are slidably connected to the first groove 244 and the second groove, respectively. By applying a positive or reverse current to the electromagnet shaft 252, a repulsive or attractive force is generated between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnet strip 254, thus achieving the switching between the third and fourth forms of the second deflector 240. In the third configuration, the second disturbance element 240 has a preset gap between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnet strip 254. In the fourth configuration, the second disturbance element 240 abuts against the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnet strip 254.
[0110] In this embodiment, a first sliding groove 244 is formed on the first end cap 242, and a second sliding groove is formed on the second end cap 246. The opposite ends of the magnet strip 254 are slidably connected to the first sliding groove 244 and the second sliding groove, respectively. The first sliding groove 244 and the second sliding groove provide tracks for the sliding of the magnet strip 254. An electromagnet shaft 252 is provided along the extension direction of the line connecting the center points of the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246 to generate a magnetic field.
[0111] The direction of the current when a repulsive force is generated between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnet strip 254 after applying current to the electromagnet shaft 252 is defined as positive. The direction of the current when an attractive force is generated between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnet strip 254 after applying current to the electromagnet shaft 252 is defined as negative. When a positive or negative current is applied to the electromagnet shaft 252, a repulsive or attractive force is generated between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnet strip 254, thereby realizing the form switching of the second disturbance element 240 between the third and fourth forms.
[0112] Specifically, when a positive current is applied to the electromagnet shaft 252, a repulsive force is generated between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnetic strip 254. Under the repulsive force, the magnetic strip 254 slides relative to the first end cover 242 and / or the second end cover 246, either along the first groove 244 and / or the second groove, away from the electromagnet shaft 252. The distance between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnetic strip 254 gradually increases. When a preset distance is reached, i.e., a preset gap exists between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnetic strip 254, the second flow-dispersing element 240 transforms into a third form. In the third form, airflow can flow through the gap between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnetic strip 254. During the rotation of the second flow-dispersing element 240 relative to the housing 100, the airflow is dispersed, and the airflow velocity is reduced, achieving efficient flow dispersion.
[0113] Specifically, when a reverse current is applied to the electromagnet shaft 252, an attractive force is generated between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnetic strip 254. Under this attractive force, the magnetic strip 254 slides relative to the first end cap 242 and / or the second end cap 246, either along the first groove 244 and / or the second groove, towards the electromagnet shaft 252. The distance between the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnetic strip 254 gradually decreases. When the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnetic strip 254 come into contact (distance is 0), the second turbulence element 240 transforms into its fourth form. In the fourth form, compared to the third form, the airflow dispersion effect is reduced, and the turbulence effect is also reduced.
[0114] By setting the electromagnet shaft 252 and the magnet strip 254, the shape of the second deflector 240 can be switched by changing the direction of the energized current, thereby realizing the dynamic adjustment of the deflection effect of the second deflector 240, improving the automation level, flexibility of use and user experience of the deflection assembly 200.
[0115] Optionally, the second spoiler 240 further includes an abutment portion and an abutment groove, the abutment portion being disposed in the first slide groove 244 and / or the second slide groove. The abutment groove is located at the end of the spoiler strip 248. The abutment portion and the abutment groove are correspondingly disposed. The abutment portion is used to abut against the abutment groove during the sliding of the spoiler strip 248 relative to the first end cap 242 and / or the second end cap 246, so as to define the position of the spoiler strip 248.
[0116] In this embodiment, as the deflector strip 248 slides along the extension direction of the first groove 244 and / or the second groove relative to the first end cap 242 and / or the second end cap 246, the abutting groove at the end of the deflector strip 248 abuts against the abutting part, so that the deflector strip 248 can stay in a specific position and achieve a shape change.
[0117] In this embodiment, when the deflector strip 248 slides along the first slide groove 244 and / or the second slide groove under the action of the electromagnet shaft 252, the abutment groove at its end contacts the abutment portion on the first slide groove 244 and / or the second slide groove, generating resistance to prevent the deflector strip 248 from continuing to slide. By setting the abutment portion and the abutment groove, the deflector strip 248 can be limited, achieving precise control of the position of the deflector strip 248, thereby realizing the shape transformation of the second deflector 240.
[0118] In one specific application, the abutting part is disposed in the first slide groove 244, and the abutting groove is located at the end of the deflector strip 248 near the first slide groove 244.
[0119] In one specific application, the abutment portion is disposed in the second slide groove, and the abutment groove is located at the end of the deflector strip 248 near the second slide groove.
[0120] In a specific application, the abutting part is provided in the first slide groove 244 and the second slide groove. There are two abutting grooves, which are located at opposite ends of the deflector strip 248.
[0121] Along the extending direction of the deflector strip 248, a groove is formed at the end of the deflector strip 248 near the first groove 244 and / or the second groove to form an abutment groove. The abutment portion includes a protrusion that matches the groove. In this embodiment, the abutment groove is integrally formed with the deflector strip 248, the abutment portion is integrally formed with the first end cap 242, and the abutment portion is integrally formed with the second end cap 246. Through the integrally formed structural design, the structural strength of the second deflector 240 is improved, and the structural strength and reliability of the deflector assembly 200 are enhanced.
[0122] Optionally, the number of abutting parts is multiple, and the multiple abutting parts are spaced apart along the extension direction of the first slide groove 244, and / or, the multiple abutting parts are spaced apart along the extension direction of the second slide groove.
[0123] In this embodiment, by increasing the number of abutting parts, multiple abutting parts are spaced apart along the extension direction of the first slide groove 244, and / or spaced apart along the extension direction of the second slide groove, so that the deflector strip 248 can stay at multiple different positions, thereby improving the accuracy of the position control of the deflector strip 248 and improving the reliability of the shape transformation of the second deflector 240.
[0124] In some embodiments, there are multiple second baffles 240, which are spaced apart from the first baffle 210 and located at the air outlet 102.
[0125] Optionally, combined Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the aerodynamic assembly 200 also includes an air conditioning component 260. The air conditioning component 260 is disposed on the aerodynamic carrier 220 and / or the first aerodynamic component 210 and / or the second aerodynamic component 240, and is used to mount fragrance and / or air purification materials.
[0126] In this embodiment, by adding an air conditioning component 260 for assembling fragrance and / or air purification materials, the air can be regulated, enhancing the functionality of the airflow turbulence assembly 200. This allows the airflow turbulence assembly 200 to regulate airflow simultaneously. For example, assembling a fragrance in the air conditioning component 260 can adjust the odor of the air. Assembling air purification materials such as activated carbon or photocatalysts in the air conditioning component 260 can remove harmful gases, organic pollutants, particulate pollutants, or bacteria from the air, improving air quality.
[0127] Furthermore, by placing the air conditioning component 260 on the turbulence carrier 220 and / or the first turbulence component 210 and / or the second turbulence component 240, the air conditioning component 260 rotates with the turbulence component 200 relative to the housing 100 during the rotation of the turbulence assembly 200 relative to the housing 100, thereby improving the air conditioning effect of the air conditioning component 260.
[0128] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the air conditioning component 260 is disposed on the first deflector 210, and the first deflector 210 includes a plurality of nested deflector rings 202. The air conditioning component 260 is connected to the innermost deflector ring 202. In this embodiment, by connecting the air conditioning component 260 to the innermost deflector ring 202, the air conditioning component 260 is positioned at the center of the first deflector 210, thus placing the air conditioning component 260 at the center of the deflection position, further enhancing the air conditioning effect of the air conditioning component 260.
[0129] In some embodiments, combined with Figures 2 to 4 As shown, there are multiple air conditioning components 260, and each of the multiple air conditioning components 260 is configured to correspond one-to-one with the first air bleeder 210.
[0130] In some embodiments, the air conditioning component 260 is disposed on the second spoiler 240, and the second spoiler 240 includes a plurality of spoiler strips 248. The air conditioning component 260 is located between the first end cap 242 and the second end cap 246, and is connected to two adjacent spoiler strips 248. In this embodiment, by disposing the air conditioning component 260 between two adjacent spoiler strips 248, the air conditioning component 260 is placed in a spoiler path, further improving the air conditioning effect of the air conditioning component 260.
[0131] In some embodiments, there are multiple air conditioning elements 260, and each of the multiple air conditioning elements 260 is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the second air bleeder 240.
[0132] In some embodiments, the air conditioning component 260 is disposed on the deflector carrier 220, and the air conditioning component 260 is spaced apart from the first deflector 210 and the second deflector 240. In this embodiment, the air conditioning component 260, the first deflector 210, and the second deflector 240 are spaced apart, so that when the deflector assembly 200 rotates relative to the housing 100, the air conditioning component 260, the first deflector 210, and the second deflector 240 operate independently, avoiding mutual interference.
[0133] In some embodiments, there are multiple air conditioning components 260, and the multiple air conditioning components 260 are spaced apart from the first baffle 210 and the second baffle 240 by a baffle carrier 220.
[0134] Optionally, combined Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioning component 260 includes a housing 262. The housing 262 is connected to the airflow carrier 220 and / or the first airflow element 210 and / or the second airflow element 240. The housing 262 includes a mounting cavity 264 and a through hole 268. The mounting cavity 264 is used to assemble fragrance and / or air purification materials, and the through hole 268 connects the mounting cavity 264 to the external environment.
[0135] In this embodiment, by opening a through hole 268 in the outer shell 262 to connect the mounting cavity 264 and the external environment, when air flows through the air conditioning component 260, it will enter the mounting cavity 264 through the through hole 268, come into contact with the fragrance material and / or air purification material, so as to regulate the air and provide a fresh and pleasant air environment.
[0136] Optionally, the mounting cavity 264 includes a first cavity and a second cavity, which are used to assemble fragrance or air purification materials. Multiple through holes 268 are provided, spaced apart within the housing 100, for connecting the first cavity to the external environment, and the second cavity to the external environment.
[0137] In this embodiment, the mounting cavity 264 is further divided into a first cavity and a second cavity, each independently used for assembling fragrance or air purification materials, to improve the reliability of the air conditioning component 260. For example, when the first cavity is equipped with fragrance and the second cavity is equipped with air purification materials, by independently setting the first and second cavities, the mixing of materials in the two cavities can be avoided, thus preventing a reduction in their respective regulating effects.
[0138] Optionally, combined Figure 2, Figure 3 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the indoor unit 10 of the air conditioner also includes a mounting member 300. The mounting member 300 is disposed on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102, and is detachably connected to the end of the turbulence carrier 220, which is rotatable relative to the mounting member 300.
[0139] In this embodiment, the air outlet 102 of the housing 100 is disposed on the mounting member 300, and the end of the deflector 220 is detachably connected to the mounting member 300, thereby realizing the detachable connection between the deflector component 200 and the housing 100. This detachable connection between the end of the deflector 220 and the mounting member 300 allows the user to remove the deflector component 200 from the housing 100 when needed, for cleaning, manual mode switching, or replacement of fragrance or air purification materials, thus improving the ease of use and flexibility of the deflector component 200.
[0140] Optionally, combined Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mounting component 300 includes a component body 302, and the component body 302 has a movable groove 304. The turbulence carrier 220 includes a rotating shaft 224, and the rotating shaft 224 is detachably connected to the movable groove 304.
[0141] In this embodiment, the shape and size of the movable slot 304 match the rotating shaft 224, allowing the rotating shaft 224 to smoothly insert into and remove from the movable slot 304 and rotate relative to it. The movable slot 304 is detachably connected to the rotating shaft 224 of the deflector 220. This detachable connection between the deflector 220 and the mounting component 300 further enables a detachable connection between the deflector assembly 200 and the housing 100, improving the ease of use and flexibility of the deflector assembly 200.
[0142] Optionally, combined Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mounting component 300 also includes a rotating shaft 306, which is disposed in the movable groove 304. A rotating groove 226 is formed at the end of the rotating shaft 224, extending along the extending direction of the rotating shaft 224. When the turbulence carrier 220 is disposed on the mounting component 300, the rotating shaft 224 is located within the movable groove 304, and the rotating shaft 306 is located within the rotating groove 226, allowing the rotating shaft 306 and the rotating groove 226 to rotate relative to each other.
[0143] In this embodiment, the shape and size of the rotating groove 226 match the rotating shaft 306, allowing the rotating shaft 306 to smoothly insert into and remove from the rotating groove 226 and rotate relative to it. When the aerodynamic carrier 220 is mounted on the mounting member 300, the rotating shaft 224 is located within the movable groove 304, and the rotating shaft 306 is located within the rotating groove 226. The detachable connection between the movable groove 304 and the rotating shaft 224, and the detachable connection between the rotating shaft 306 and the rotating groove 226, achieves a detachable connection between the aerodynamic component 200 and the housing 100. Furthermore, by adding the rotating shaft 306 and the rotating groove 226 to the movable groove 304 and the rotating shaft 224, the connection between the two is more stable when the aerodynamic carrier 220 is mounted on the mounting member 300, preventing the aerodynamic carrier 220 from detaching from the mounting member 300 during rotation.
[0144] Optionally, the spoiler assembly 200 also includes a drive component. The drive component is disposed in the housing 100, and its output end is connected to the spoiler carrier 220 for driving the spoiler carrier 220 to rotate.
[0145] In this embodiment, the driving member provides power to the aerodynamic assembly 200, driving the aerodynamic carrier 220 to rotate relative to the housing 100, thereby rotating the first aerodynamic element 210 located on the aerodynamic carrier 220, or the first aerodynamic element 210 and the second aerodynamic element 240, to achieve aerodynamic turbulence. In a practical application, the driving member includes a rotary motor.
[0146] In some embodiments, the turbulence carrier 220 includes a first connecting rod 222, and a first turbulence element 210 and a second turbulence element 240 are spaced apart from the first connecting rod 222. A rotating shaft 224 is connected to one end of the first connecting rod 222, and the output end of the driving element is connected to the other end of the first connecting rod 222.
[0147] In some embodiments, there are multiple airflow deflection components 200, which are spaced apart on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102. In this embodiment, by increasing the number of airflow deflection components 200, the airflow deflection effect of the indoor unit 10 of the air conditioner is further improved, thereby enhancing the user experience.
[0148] Optionally, combined Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the indoor unit 10 of the air conditioner also includes a louver assembly 400. The louver assembly 400 is disposed on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102. The louver assembly 400 is spaced apart from the air turbulence assembly 200. The louver assembly 400 is located on the side of the air turbulence assembly 200 away from the indoor environment. The airflow flowing through the air outlet 102 first passes through the louver assembly 400, and then through the air turbulence assembly 200 before entering the indoor environment.
[0149] The louver assembly 400 is used to adjust and change the direction of airflow. In this embodiment, the louver assembly 400 is located on the side of the deflector assembly 200 away from the room. The airflow passing through the air outlet 102 first passes through the louver assembly 400, and then through the deflector assembly 200 before entering the room. This ensures that the airflow entering the room is first adjusted in direction by the louver assembly 400, and then disturbed by the deflector assembly 200. By cooperating with the louver assembly 400 and the deflector assembly 200 to regulate airflow, a more comfortable air environment is provided for the user, improving the user experience of the air conditioner 1.
[0150] Optionally, combined Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the oscillating blade assembly 400 includes an oscillating blade 410, a second connecting rod 420, and an oscillating blade motor. The oscillating blade 410 is rotatably mounted on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102. The second connecting rod 420 is connected to the oscillating blade 410. The oscillating blade motor is mounted on the housing 100, and its output end is connected to the second connecting rod 420. The oscillating blade motor drives the second connecting rod 420 to move relative to the housing 100, thereby causing the oscillating blade 410 to rotate relative to the housing 100.
[0151] In this embodiment, the oscillating blade 410 changes the airflow direction by rotating, allowing the air to be evenly distributed to all corners of the room. The second connecting rod 420 connects the oscillating blade 410 and the oscillating blade motor, transmitting power from the motor to the blade 410, enabling it to rotate at a set angle and speed. The oscillating blade motor is the power source driving the rotation of the oscillating blade 410. The oscillating blade 410, the second connecting rod 420, and the oscillating blade 410 are electrically coupled to adjust the airflow direction of the oscillating blade assembly 400. In a practical application, the oscillating blade motor includes a telescopic motor.
[0152] Optionally, combined Figure 11 As shown, the oscillating blade assembly 400 also includes an oscillating blade support 440. The oscillating blade support 440 is disposed on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102. The oscillating blade 410 and the oscillating blade support 440 are rotatably connected. In this embodiment, the oscillating blade support 440 is used to support the oscillating blade 410, while the oscillating blade 410 is rotatably disposed on the housing 100 through the oscillating blade support 440.
[0153] Optionally, combined Figure 11As shown, the oscillating blade support 440 includes a base 442 and a connecting shaft 444. The base 442 is disposed on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102. One end of the connecting shaft 444 is rotatably connected to the base 442, and the other end of the connecting shaft 444 is connected to the oscillating blade 410. In this embodiment, by cooperating with the oscillating blade 410 and the connecting shaft 444, the translational motion of the connecting rod is converted into the rotational motion of the oscillating blade 410, realizing that the oscillating blade motor drives the oscillating blade 410 to rotate relative to the housing 100, thereby changing the airflow direction flowing through the oscillating blade assembly 400.
[0154] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, there are multiple oscillating blade supports 440, which are spaced apart on the housing 100 and located at the air outlet 102. There are multiple oscillating blades 410, each corresponding to one of the oscillating blade supports 440. A connecting rod is connected to each of the oscillating blades 410. In this embodiment, by increasing the number of oscillating blades 410 and oscillating blade supports 440, the air guiding effect of the oscillating blade assembly 400 is improved. Furthermore, by connecting the connecting rod to the multiple oscillating blades 410, the output end of the oscillating blade motor is connected to the second connecting rod 420, so that the oscillating blade motor can synchronously drive the multiple oscillating blades 410, ensuring the air guiding reliability and stability of the oscillating blade assembly 400.
[0155] Combination Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the air conditioner 1 provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure also includes a control device 50 for the air conditioner. The control device 50 for the air conditioner is installed in the housing 100 and is communicatively connected to the airflow turbulence assembly 200.
[0156] In this embodiment, the control device 50 for the air conditioner is mounted on the housing 100. The mounting relationship described herein is not limited to placement within the housing 100, but also includes mounting connections with other components of the air conditioner 1, including but not limited to physical connections, electrical connections, or signal transmission connections. Those skilled in the art will understand that the control device 50 for the air conditioner can be adapted to any feasible air conditioner 1, thereby realizing other feasible embodiments.
[0157] Optionally, combined Figure 14 As shown, the control device 50 for the air conditioner includes a processor 500. The processor 500 can, in response to an operating command, acquire indoor ambient temperature and biological data; determine a first temperature difference between the ambient temperature and a set temperature; determine and execute a target operating mode for the air conditioner based on the first temperature difference and the biological data; and adjust the operating state of the turbulence-disrupting components based on the biological data during the execution of the target operating mode.
[0158] Combination Figure 1The air conditioner shown in this disclosure provides a control method for the air conditioner, such as... Figure 12 As shown, the control methods include:
[0159] S121, the processor responds to the execution instruction and acquires indoor ambient temperature and biological data.
[0160] S122, the processor determines the first temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the set temperature.
[0161] In this embodiment, the preset temperature refers to the temperature at which the user feels comfortable in the current environment. The preset temperature can be set by the user based on their own feelings, or it can be obtained by connecting the air conditioner to the Internet and obtaining the comfortable temperature felt by people at the current location and time as the preset temperature.
[0162] S123, the processor determines the target operating mode of the air conditioner based on the first temperature difference and the biological data, and executes it.
[0163] S124, During the process of the air conditioner executing the target operating mode, the processor adjusts the operating state of the turbulence component based on the biological data.
[0164] The control method for air conditioners provided in this disclosure can be applied to the air conditioners described in the above embodiments, meaning that the turbulence-disrupting component in this embodiment includes the turbulence-disrupting component described in the above embodiments. Therefore, the technical effects of the turbulence-disrupting components and air conditioners described in the actual embodiments are all present in this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0165] In this embodiment, the airflow deflector is independently positioned at the air outlet of the housing. By rotating relative to the housing, the airflow passing through the outlet is dispersed, achieving a gentle breeze function and preventing direct airflow onto people. By independently positioning the deflector, the gentle breeze function can be activated or deactivated by controlling its opening and closing. The control method provided in this embodiment can determine the target operating mode of the air conditioner based on a first temperature difference and biological data. During the determination of the target operating mode, it can be determined whether to activate the gentle breeze function, achieving automatic selection of the operating mode. Furthermore, during the air conditioner's execution of the target operating mode, the operating state of the deflector is adjusted in real-time based on the biological data to meet the requirements of the target operating mode.
[0166] Furthermore, since biological data is incorporated into both the determination and execution of the target operating mode in this embodiment, the operating state of the turbulence component can meet the actual needs of the organism during the target operating mode of the air conditioner and the execution of the target operating mode, thereby satisfying the user's personalized needs and improving the user experience.
[0167] Optionally, the step of determining the target operating mode of the air conditioner based on the first temperature difference and biological data includes: determining the operating mode of the air conditioner based on the first temperature difference; and determining the turbulence mode of the turbulence component based on the biological data; wherein the operating mode of the air conditioner includes a cooling mode, a heating mode, or a fresh air mode.
[0168] In this embodiment, the air conditioner's operating mode is determined by combining a first temperature difference with biological data to determine the turbulence mode of the turbulence component. By using both the air conditioner's operating mode and the turbulence mode of the turbulence component as target operating modes, more intelligent and personalized air conditioning control is achieved, thereby improving indoor environmental comfort. Furthermore, determining the turbulence mode of the turbulence component based on biological data ensures that the determined turbulence mode conforms to the actual needs of organisms, meeting the user's personalized needs and thus enhancing the user experience.
[0169] Optionally, the step of determining the operating mode of the air conditioner based on the first temperature difference includes: determining the operating mode of the air conditioner as cooling mode when the first temperature difference is greater than a first temperature difference threshold; determining the operating mode of the air conditioner as fresh air mode when the first temperature difference is less than or equal to the first temperature difference threshold and greater than or equal to a second temperature difference threshold; and determining the operating mode of the air conditioner as heating mode when the first temperature difference is less than the second temperature difference threshold; wherein the first temperature difference threshold is greater than zero and the second temperature difference threshold is less than zero.
[0170] In this embodiment, a first temperature difference threshold and a second temperature difference threshold are preset as the criteria for determining the operating mode of the air conditioner. The first temperature difference threshold is greater than zero, and the second temperature difference threshold is less than zero. When the first temperature difference exceeds the first temperature difference threshold, it indicates that the current indoor ambient temperature is much higher than the set temperature, and the air conditioner is determined to operate in cooling mode to lower the indoor temperature. When the first temperature difference is less than or equal to the first temperature difference threshold but greater than or equal to the second temperature difference threshold, it indicates that the current indoor ambient temperature is not significantly different from the set temperature, and the air conditioner is determined to operate in fresh air mode to introduce fresh outdoor air and improve indoor air quality. When the first temperature difference is less than the second temperature difference threshold, it indicates that the current indoor ambient temperature is much lower than the set temperature, and the air conditioner is determined to operate in heating mode to raise the indoor temperature.
[0171] In this embodiment, by setting two first temperature difference thresholds and a second temperature difference threshold, the air conditioner can intelligently select cooling, fresh air, or heating mode based on the difference between the current indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature. This improves the operating efficiency of the air conditioner and provides users with a more comfortable and personalized indoor temperature environment.
[0172] It should be noted that the first temperature difference threshold and the second temperature difference threshold need to be specifically set according to the actual product equipment and usage environment. This application does not limit the specific values of the first temperature difference threshold and the second temperature difference threshold. For example, the first temperature difference threshold can be 3℃, 4℃ or 5℃, or -3℃, -4℃ or -5℃.
[0173] Optionally, the organism data includes an image of the organism, its height, and physiological parameters. The step of determining the turbulence mode of the turbulence component based on the organism data includes: determining the name of the organism based on the image and height; determining the corresponding physiological parameter threshold based on the name of the organism; and determining the turbulence mode of the turbulence component based on the physiological parameters of the organism and their corresponding physiological parameter thresholds.
[0174] In this embodiment, the organism's name can be determined first based on its image and height. Different organisms have different physiological parameters for health assessment. Therefore, the type of organism is identified first, i.e., the organism's name is determined. After determining the organism's name, the corresponding physiological parameter threshold is found. This threshold is used to determine whether the organism is in a healthy state. Then, based on the organism's physiological parameters and their corresponding thresholds, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined. This ensures that the determined turbulence mode meets the organism's health requirements, fulfilling the user's personalized needs and improving the user's air conditioner experience.
[0175] The image of the organism can be acquired using an image acquisition device (such as a camera) mounted on an air conditioner; the height of the organism can be obtained by measuring the distance between the laser beam emitted by a laser rangefinder mounted on the air conditioner, or a laser rangefinder connected to the air conditioner, and the top of the organism. Physiological parameters of the organism can be acquired using wearable devices worn by the organism.
[0176] Optionally, the step of determining the name of an organism based on its image and height includes: identifying the organism image to determine an initial organism name; determining the height range of the organism based on the initial organism name; determining whether the organism's height is within the height range; if the organism's height is within the height range, using the initial organism name as the organism name; if the organism's height is outside the height range, re-acquiring the organism image and height and determining the organism name.
[0177] In this embodiment, the organism image is first analyzed using image recognition technology (such as a deep learning model) to identify the type of organism and determine its initial name. Then, combined with the organism's height data, the name of the organism is further confirmed to improve the accuracy of the identification. For example, if the organism image shows a cat, and its height matches the height range of a cat, then the organism can be identified as a cat.
[0178] Furthermore, the correspondence between organism names and the organism's height range and physiological parameter thresholds can be pre-saved in the air conditioner's memory, or pre-stored in an online database, or obtained by querying external data sources in real time.
[0179] Optionally, the biological physiological parameters include heart rate and body surface temperature; the physiological parameter thresholds include body temperature threshold and heart rate threshold; the step of determining the turbulence mode of the turbulence component based on the biological physiological parameters and their corresponding physiological parameter thresholds includes: determining the frequency difference between heart rate and heart rate threshold and the second temperature difference between body surface temperature and body temperature threshold; if the second temperature difference is greater than or equal to the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is less than the frequency difference threshold, determining the turbulence mode of the turbulence component as a first turbulence mode; if the second temperature difference is less than the body temperature difference threshold... If the temperature difference is greater than or equal to the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is less than or equal to the frequency difference threshold, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined to be the second turbulence mode; if the temperature difference is greater than or equal to the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is greater than or equal to the frequency difference threshold, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined to be the third turbulence mode; if the temperature difference is less than the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is greater than or equal to the frequency difference threshold, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined to be the fourth turbulence mode; wherein, the degree of turbulence on the airflow gradually increases from the first turbulence mode to the second turbulence mode, the third turbulence mode, and the fourth turbulence mode.
[0180] Among them, the frequency difference refers to the absolute value of the difference between heart rate and heart rate threshold, and the second temperature difference refers to the absolute value of the difference between body surface temperature and body temperature threshold.
[0181] In this embodiment, a frequency difference threshold and a body temperature difference threshold are preset. The frequency difference threshold and the second temperature difference, as well as the frequency difference between the heart rate and the heart rate threshold and the second temperature difference between the body surface temperature and the body temperature threshold, are used as the criteria for judging the turbulence mode of the turbulence component.
[0182] The heart rate threshold refers to the ideal heart rate threshold for an organism in a healthy state. By determining the frequency difference between the organism's current heart rate and the heart rate threshold, the deviation between the organism's current heart rate and the ideal heart rate in a healthy state is determined. The organism's health status is then judged by comparing this deviation value with the frequency difference threshold. When the frequency difference is greater than or equal to the frequency difference threshold, it indicates that the current heart rate of the organism is much higher or lower than the threshold; in this case, the organism's heart rate is too fast or too slow, and the organism is in an unhealthy state. When the organism is in an unhealthy state, the turbulence effect of the airflow components should be increased to prevent airflow from directly hitting the organism. When the frequency difference is less than the frequency difference threshold, it indicates that the current heart rate of the organism is within the normal heart rate range; in this case, the organism's heart rate is normal, and the organism is in a healthy state. When the organism is in a healthy state, the turbulence effect of the airflow components can be reduced to save energy.
[0183] The body temperature threshold refers to the ideal body surface temperature for an organism in a comfortable state. The deviation between the current body surface temperature and the body temperature threshold is determined by a second temperature difference. This deviation is compared to the body temperature threshold to determine whether the organism needs rapid cooling or heating. When the second temperature difference is greater than or equal to the body temperature threshold, it indicates that the current body surface temperature is too high or too low, and the organism needs rapid cooling or heating. When the second temperature difference is less than the body temperature threshold, it indicates that the current body surface temperature is not excessively higher or lower than the body temperature threshold, and the organism does not need rapid cooling or heating.
[0184] In summary, when the second temperature difference is greater than or equal to the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is less than the frequency deviation threshold, it indicates that the organism needs rapid cooling and is in a healthy state. In this case, direct airflow has little impact on the organism, and rapid cooling should be prioritized. In this scenario, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined to be the first turbulence mode. When the second temperature difference is less than the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is less than the frequency deviation threshold, it indicates that the organism does not need rapid cooling and is in a healthy state. In this case, direct airflow has little impact on the organism, and comfort and energy saving should be the primary considerations. In this scenario, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined to be the second turbulence mode. When the second temperature difference is greater than or equal to the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is greater than or equal to the frequency deviation threshold, it indicates that the organism needs rapid cooling but is in an unhealthy state. In this case, direct airflow has a significant impact on the organism, and direct airflow should be avoided while rapid cooling is achieved. In this scenario, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined to be the third turbulence mode. When the second temperature difference is less than the body temperature difference threshold and the frequency difference is greater than or equal to the frequency difference threshold, it indicates that the organism does not require rapid cooling and is in an unhealthy state. In this case, direct airflow has a significant impact on the organism, so avoiding direct airflow and prioritizing comfort are paramount. Under these circumstances, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component is determined to be the fourth turbulence mode.
[0185] The degree of airflow disturbance caused by the first, second, third, and fourth turbulence modes gradually increases. The working state of the first and / or second turbulence components corresponding to the first, second, third, and fourth turbulence modes can be specifically set by technical personnel, and is not limited to the states mentioned in this application.
[0186] Optionally, the physiological parameters of an organism include age; the physiological parameter thresholds include body temperature threshold and heart rate threshold; the step of determining the corresponding physiological parameter thresholds based on the name of the organism includes: determining the age stage of the organism based on its name and age; and determining the body temperature threshold and heart rate threshold corresponding to the organism in that age stage based on the age stage of the organism.
[0187] In this embodiment, physiological parameter thresholds are used to determine whether the organism is in a healthy or comfortable state. However, the criteria for determining a healthy or comfortable state differ depending on the organism's type and age group. In this embodiment, by combining the organism's name and age, the body temperature and heart rate thresholds corresponding to that age group are determined as physiological parameter thresholds, thus improving the reliability and accuracy of the physiological parameter thresholds.
[0188] Optionally, during the execution of the target operating mode by the air conditioner, the step of adjusting the operating state of the turbulence component based on biological data includes: when the target operating mode includes a turbulence mode, driving the first turbulence component to rotate relative to the housing; and adjusting the rotational speed and / or shape of the first turbulence component based on biological data; when the target operating mode does not include a turbulence mode, applying a reverse current to the electromagnet ring to make the first turbulence component present a second shape; and adjusting the rotation angle of the first turbulence component based on biological data; wherein, in the second shape, the planes on which the multiple turbulence rings are located are the same.
[0189] In this embodiment, when the target operating mode includes a turbulence mode, the rotational speed and / or shape of the first turbulence element are adjusted based on biological data to achieve different degrees of turbulence. When the target operating mode does not include a turbulence mode, a reverse current is applied to the electromagnet ring, causing the first turbulence element to assume a second shape. The rotation angle of the first turbulence element is then adjusted based on the biological data, ensuring that the first turbulence element can only rotate within a preset rotation angle range in the second shape, cooperating with the oscillating blade assembly to guide airflow and change the direction of airflow. In summary, this achieves the activation or deactivation of the turbulence mode.
[0190] When the turbulence assembly includes a second turbulence element, the step of adjusting the operating state of the turbulence assembly based on biological data during the execution of the target operating mode by the air conditioner further includes: when the target operating mode includes a turbulence mode, driving the second turbulence element to rotate relative to the housing; and adjusting the rotational speed and / or shape of the second turbulence element based on the biological data; when the target operating mode does not include a turbulence mode, applying a reverse current to the electromagnet shaft to make the second turbulence element present a fourth shape; wherein, in the fourth shape, the electromagnet shaft abuts against the magnet strip.
[0191] In this embodiment, when the target operating mode includes a turbulence mode, the rotational speed and / or shape of the first and second turbulence components are adjusted based on biological data to achieve different degrees of turbulence. When the target operating mode does not include a turbulence mode, a reverse current is applied to the electromagnet ring, causing the first turbulence component to assume a second shape. The rotation angle of the first turbulence component is adjusted based on the biological data, ensuring that the first turbulence component can only rotate within a preset rotation angle range in the second shape, cooperating with the oscillating blade assembly to guide airflow and change the direction of airflow. Simultaneously, the second turbulence component assumes a fourth shape, reducing its interference with the airflow. In summary, the turbulence mode is enabled or disabled.
[0192] Optionally, the step of the air conditioner executing the target operating mode includes: when the target operating mode includes a first turbulence mode or a second turbulence mode, applying a reverse current to the electromagnet ring to make the first turbulence element present a second shape; in the second shape, the planes on which the multiple turbulence rings are located are the same; when the target operating mode includes a third turbulence mode or a fourth turbulence mode, applying a forward current to the electromagnet ring to make the first turbulence element present a first shape; in the first shape, the planes on which adjacent turbulence rings are located form a preset angle.
[0193] In this embodiment, when the first spoiler is in its second configuration, its interference effect on the airflow is lower than that in its first configuration. Therefore, when the target operating mode includes either the first or second spoiler mode, the first spoiler is configured in its second configuration. When the target operating mode includes either the third or fourth spoiler mode, the first spoiler is configured in its first configuration. This ensures that the spoiler levels of the first and second spoiler modes are lower than those of the third and fourth spoiler modes.
[0194] When the turbulence assembly includes a second turbulence element, the step of the air conditioner executing the target operating mode further includes: when the target operating mode includes a first turbulence mode or a second turbulence mode, applying a reverse current to the electromagnet ring to make the second turbulence element present a fourth form; in the fourth form, the multiple electromagnet shafts abut against the magnet strips; when the target operating mode includes a third turbulence mode or a fourth turbulence mode, applying a forward current to the electromagnet ring to make the second turbulence element present a third form; in the third form, there is a preset gap between the electromagnet shafts and the magnet strips.
[0195] In this embodiment, when the second spoiler is in its fourth configuration, its interference effect on airflow is lower than that in its third configuration. Therefore, when the target operating mode includes either the first or second spoiler mode, the second spoiler is configured in its fourth configuration. When the target operating mode includes either the third or fourth spoiler mode, the second spoiler is configured in its third configuration. This ensures that the turbulence levels of the first and second spoiler modes are lower than those of the third or fourth spoiler modes.
[0196] Optionally, the step of the air conditioner executing the target operating mode further includes: in the first turbulence mode, the rotational speed of the turbulence component is V1; in the second turbulence mode, the rotational speed of the turbulence component is V2; in the third turbulence mode, the rotational speed of the turbulence component is V3; in the fourth turbulence mode, the rotational speed of the turbulence component is V4; wherein, V1 < V2 ≤ V3 < V4.
[0197] In this embodiment, by defining the first turbulence mode, the second turbulence mode, the third turbulence mode and the fourth turbulence mode, the rotational speeds of the turbulence components are V1, V2, V3 and V4 respectively, and V1 < V2 ≤ V3 < V4, so that the turbulence degree of the first turbulence mode, the second turbulence mode, the third turbulence mode and the fourth turbulence mode increases sequentially.
[0198] It should be noted that the specific values of V1, V2, V3, and V4 need to be set by technicians based on the actual product equipment, and this application does not impose any limitations. For example, the values of V1, V2, V3, and V4 are 100rpm, 300rpm, 500rpm, and 700rpm, respectively.
[0199] Optionally, the biological data includes body surface temperature and heart rate; the step of adjusting the operating state of the perturbation component based on the biological data includes: determining the rate of change of the biological body temperature and the rate of change of the heart rate based on the body surface temperature and the heart rate, respectively; and adjusting the rotational speed of the perturbation component based on the rate of change of the biological body temperature and the rate of change of the heart rate.
[0200] In this embodiment, a predefined correlation is established between the rate of change of a biological body temperature and the rate of change of heart rate and the rotational speed of the turbulence component. For example, the rate of change of body temperature and the rotational speed of the turbulence component are directly proportional. When the target operating mode includes a turbulence mode, the rotational speed of the turbulence component is adjusted according to the predefined correlation between the rate of change of a biological body temperature and the rate of change of heart rate and the rotational speed of the turbulence component to adapt to the user's rate of change of body temperature and heart rate, further improving the user's physical condition and enabling the air conditioner to meet the user's personalized needs.
[0201] Optionally, the organism data includes the organism's position and height; the step of adjusting the operating state of the perturbation component based on the organism data includes: adjusting the rotation angle of the perturbation component based on the organism's position and height.
[0202] In this embodiment, since the target operating mode does not include a turbulence mode, the rotation angle of the turbulence component is adjusted according to the organism's position and height. This allows the airflow passing through the outlet to adjust its direction according to user needs, achieving either "wind following the person" or "wind avoiding the person." "Wind following the person" means the blades rotate in the direction of the organism's movement, ensuring airflow is directed towards the organism. "Wind avoiding the person" means the blades rotate in the opposite direction of the organism's movement, preventing airflow from being directed towards the organism.
[0203] Combination Figure 13 As shown, this disclosure provides another control method for an air conditioner, including:
[0204] S131, the processor responds to the execution instruction and acquires indoor ambient temperature and biological data.
[0205] The organism data includes the organism's height and heart rate.
[0206] S132, the processor determines a first temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the set temperature.
[0207] S133, the processor determines the operating mode of the air conditioner based on the first temperature difference.
[0208] The operating modes of the air conditioner include cooling mode, heating mode, or fresh air mode.
[0209] S134, the processor determines the turbulence pattern of the turbulence component based on the biological data.
[0210] S135, the processor determines the oscillation mode of the blade assembly based on the heartbeat frequency.
[0211] Among them, the swing modes include wind-chasing mode or wind-avoiding mode.
[0212] Optionally, the step of determining the swing mode of the blade assembly based on the heartbeat frequency includes: determining the frequency difference between the heartbeat frequency and the heartbeat threshold; if the frequency difference is less than the frequency difference threshold, determining the swing mode of the blade assembly as the wind-chasing-person mode; if the frequency difference is greater than or equal to the frequency difference threshold, determining the swing mode of the blade assembly as the wind-avoiding-person mode.
[0213] In this embodiment, the health status of an organism is determined by comparing the frequency difference with a frequency difference threshold. When the frequency difference is less than the frequency difference threshold, the organism is considered healthy, and the oscillation mode of the pendulum assembly is determined to be the "wind-following-human" mode. When the frequency difference is greater than the frequency difference threshold, the organism is considered unhealthy, and the oscillation mode of the pendulum assembly is determined to be the "wind-avoiding-human" mode.
[0214] S136, the processor takes the determined air conditioner operating mode, the turbulence mode of the turbulence component, and the oscillation mode of the louver component as the target operating mode and executes them.
[0215] S137, the processor obtains the location of the organism.
[0216] S138, the processor adjusts the rotation angle of the blades in the blade assembly according to the position and height of the organism.
[0217] S139, the processor adjusts the operating state of the perturbation component based on biological data.
[0218] The control method for air conditioners provided in this disclosure can comprehensively regulate the louver assembly and the turbulence assembly to ensure that the airflow pattern meets user needs. Specifically, based on the heart rate, the oscillation mode of the louver assembly is determined to match the state of the organism. During the execution of the oscillation mode, the position of the organism is acquired in real time, and the rotation angle of the louver is adjusted based on the organism's position and height, so that the air entering the room can be blown towards or away from the direction of the organism.
