Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and more specifically, to an air conditioning control method, device, air conditioner, equipment, medium, and program product. Background Technology
[0002] With social development and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, air conditioners have become an indispensable electrical appliance in people's daily lives. Air conditioners regulate and control parameters such as temperature, humidity, and airflow rate of the air in a building or structure to meet people's needs for the surrounding environment.
[0003] In related technologies, the air conditioning indoor unit has insufficient airflow diffusion range when expanding airflow, making it difficult to meet the needs of multi-functional scenarios such as rapid temperature control in large spaces and precise air delivery to local areas. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This application addresses the shortcomings of existing methods by proposing an air conditioning control method, device, air conditioner, equipment, medium, and program product to solve the technical problem that the air conditioning indoor unit has insufficient airflow diffusion range during expansion, making it difficult to meet the needs of multi-functional scenarios such as rapid temperature control in large spaces and precise air delivery to local areas.
[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide an air conditioning control method, the air conditioner including a housing assembly with an air outlet, a sliding door slidable relative to the housing assembly, a grille disposed at the air outlet, and an air guide plate rotatably disposed at the air outlet, the grille having an air guide channel; The air conditioning control method includes the following steps: In response to the air conditioner's air supply command, the sliding door is controlled to open, and the air guide plate is controlled to swing left and right, freeze, or move and then freeze.
[0006] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide an air conditioner, comprising: Housing assembly with air outlet; A sliding door that is slidable relative to the housing assembly; A grille is provided at the air outlet, and the grille has an air guiding channel; An air guide plate is rotatably mounted at the air outlet, located on the rear side of the grille; When the air conditioner is in the air-blowing state, the sliding door is opened, and the air guide plate is configured to swing left and right, stay still, or move and then stay still.
[0007] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide an air conditioner control device, comprising: The processing module is used to obtain the air supply instructions from the air conditioner; The control module is used to control the opening of the sliding door and the left and right swing, freeze, or move and freeze after the air supply command is given.
[0008] Fourthly, embodiments of this application provide an electronic device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory, wherein the processor executes the computer program to implement the air conditioning control method described above.
[0009] Fifthly, embodiments of this application provide a computer storage medium storing a computer program thereon, which, when executed by an electronic device, implements the air conditioning control method described above.
[0010] In a sixth aspect, embodiments of this application provide a computer program product, including a computer program that, when executed by a processor, implements the aforementioned air conditioning control method.
[0011] The beneficial technical effects of the technical solutions provided in this application include: The air conditioning control method in this embodiment responds to the air supply command of the air conditioner and controls the sliding door to open. The air supply command may include user-preset air supply mode information, so that the air conditioner can control the air guide plate to swing left and right continuously to supply air according to the air supply mode information, so as to continuously fan the airflow at the air outlet, expand the airflow diffusion range, and make the airflow diffusion more uniform.
[0012] Furthermore, the air guide plate can be controlled to rotate and be fixed in a preset position to form an air supply channel or an air supply guide surface in a set direction to guide air in the set direction. When the air supply channel formed by the air guide plate faces one or both sides of the air conditioner, the air conditioner can achieve the lateral air expansion function. When the air supply channel formed by the air guide plate faces the front of the air conditioner outlet, the air conditioner can achieve the air gathering function, thereby extending the air supply distance of the air conditioner in this state and achieving long-distance air supply.
[0013] Furthermore, the air guide vane can be controlled to swing left and right for at least one cycle before settling at a preset angle. This ensures even airflow diffusion during air conditioner startup, guaranteeing rapid cooling of the space. Afterward, it directs airflow in the desired direction according to the user's specified airflow requirements. Alternatively, the air guide vane can be controlled to swing left and right for at least one cycle before settling at a preset position for a set time. Thus, during air conditioner operation, the air guide vane can execute multiple such cycles, ensuring both even airflow diffusion within the space and directing airflow in the desired direction. This expands the airflow diffusion range and improves the uniformity of airflow diffusion to meet the airflow requirements of different scenarios. The preset positions of the air guide vane after stabilizing within any two cycles can be the same or different, and can also be alternated according to user settings.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] In related technologies, it is difficult to precisely control the airflow direction of air conditioners, making it difficult for air conditioners to adapt to different application scenarios.
[0021] The technical solution of this application and how it solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following embodiments can be referenced, borrowed, or combined with each other, and the same terms, similar features, and similar implementation steps in different embodiments will not be described again.
[0022] Reference Figures 1-17 The air conditioner in this application embodiment includes: a housing assembly 10 having an air outlet 11, a sliding door 20 slidable relative to the housing assembly 10, and a grille 30 disposed at the air outlet 11, the grille 30 having an air guide channel 33.
[0023] Reference Figures 3-6 The air conditioner also includes an air duct 12, which has an air duct outlet 121 that communicates with an air outlet 11 and is located behind the air outlet 11. The air conditioner also includes a guide vane 40 that is rotatably disposed at the air outlet 11 and is located behind the grille 30.
[0024] Optionally, refer to Figures 3-6 and Figure 17 Air conditioning control methods include: S101: In response to the air conditioner's air supply command, control the sliding door 20 to open, and control the air guide plate 40 to swing left and right, freeze, or move and then freeze.
[0025] The control method of this application embodiment responds to the air supply command of the air conditioner and controls the sliding door 20 to open. The air supply command may include user-preset air supply mode information, so that the air conditioner can control the air guide plate 40 to swing left and right continuously to supply air when supplying air, so as to continuously fan the airflow at the air outlet 11, thereby expanding the airflow diffusion range and making the airflow diffusion more uniform.
[0026] Furthermore, the air guide plate 40 can be controlled to rotate and be fixed in a preset position to form an air supply channel 52 facing a set direction, or to form an air supply guide surface facing a set direction, so as to guide the air in the set direction. When the air supply channel 52 formed by the air guide plate 40 faces one or both sides of the air conditioner, the air conditioner can realize the lateral air expansion function. When the air supply channel 52 formed by the air guide plate 40 faces the front of the air conditioner outlet 11, the air conditioner can realize the air gathering function, thereby extending the air supply distance of the air conditioner in this state and realizing long-distance air supply.
[0027] Furthermore, the air guide plate 40 can be controlled to swing left and right for at least one cycle before settling at a preset position. This ensures even airflow diffusion during the air conditioner's startup phase, guaranteeing rapid cooling within the space. Afterward, it directs airflow in the desired direction according to the user's set airflow requirements. Alternatively, the air guide plate 40 can be controlled to swing left and right for at least one cycle before settling at the preset position for a set time. Thus, during air conditioning operation, the air guide plate 40 can execute multiple such cycles, ensuring both even airflow diffusion within the space and meeting the requirement for airflow in the desired direction. This expands the airflow diffusion range and improves the uniformity of airflow diffusion to meet the airflow needs of different scenarios. The preset positions of the air guide plate 40 after settling within any two cycles can be the same or different, and can also be alternated according to user settings, allowing for continuous switching of the air guide plate 40's direction during air conditioning operation.
[0028] Optionally, refer to Figures 3-7 The air guide plate 40 includes at least two sets arranged at intervals along the left and right directions, and each set of air guide plates 40 swings independently.
[0029] In step S101 above, in response to the air supply command from the air conditioner, the sliding door 20 is opened, and the air guide vanes 40 are controlled to swing left and right, freeze, or move and then freeze. This includes: controlling at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 to swing left and right in the same direction; or controlling at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 to swing left and right in opposite directions; or controlling at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 to freeze in a preset position; or controlling at least one set of air guide vanes 40 to swing left and right, while controlling the remaining at least one set of air guide vanes 40 to freeze or move and then freeze, with the frozen air guide vanes 40 perpendicular to or intersecting the first plane at an angle.
[0030] In this embodiment, since at least each set of air guide vanes 40 swings independently, taking two sets of air guide vanes 40 as an example, in a scenario where both sets of air guide vanes 40 swing left and right, the swing directions of the two sets of air guide vanes 40 can be controlled to be the same (i.e., swinging left and right in the same direction), or the swing directions of the two sets of air guide vanes 40 can be controlled to be opposite (i.e., swinging left and right in opposite directions); one set of air guide vanes 40 can also be controlled to swing while the other set of air guide vanes 40 remains stationary; or at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 can be controlled to remain stationary at a set position. At the set positions of the at least two sets of air guide vanes 40, the angles between the at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 and the first plane can be the same or different. Therefore, based on the air supply mode of the air conditioner, the state of each of the at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 can be arbitrarily adjusted to at least achieve the required air expansion and / or air concentration effects of the air conditioner.
[0031] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 In the above steps, controlling at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 to be fixed in preset positions includes: controlling at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 to be fixed in a first preset position, such that the ends of at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 near the grille 30 point towards both sides of the grille 30 respectively. This allows each pair of adjacent sets of air guide vanes 40 to form an outwardly opening air supply channel 52, causing the airflow at the duct outlet 121 to diffuse along the figure-eight shaped channel to both sides of the air conditioner, thereby expanding the airflow range of the air conditioner and improving the uniformity of airflow diffusion within the space.
[0032] In one alternative embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 In the above steps, controlling at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be fixed in preset positions includes: controlling at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be fixed in a second preset position, such that the ends of at least two sets of air guide plates 40 near the grille 30 all point towards the center of the grille 30. Thus, in the horizontal plane, it is possible to control each pair of adjacent sets of air guide plates 40 to form an inverted V-shaped air supply channel 52, causing the airflow at the duct outlet 121 to converge towards the center of the air conditioner along the gradually narrowing inverted V-shaped air supply channel 52, thereby achieving an air-gathering effect, extending the air supply distance, and making it suitable for air supply scenarios requiring long-distance air supply.
[0033] In another optional embodiment, the above steps, controlling at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 to be fixed in a preset position, include: Reference Figure 5 At least two sets of air guide plates 40 are fixed in a third preset position, so that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are parallel and intersect the first plane at an inclination. Thus, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 can be controlled to tilt to the left or right to form an air supply channel 52 facing to the left or right, so as to realize lateral air supply according to the air supply requirements.
[0034] In another alternative embodiment, refer to Figure 6In the above steps, controlling at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be fixed in preset positions includes: controlling at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be fixed in a fourth preset position, so that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are perpendicular to the first plane. Therefore, the air delivery channel 52 formed by at least two sets of air guide plates 40 can be controlled to extend in the front-to-back direction, allowing the air guide plates 40 to guide air forward, reducing wind resistance, and making it suitable for air delivery scenarios requiring long-distance air delivery.
[0035] The aforementioned preset positions include a first preset position, a second preset position, a third preset position, and a fourth preset position.
[0036] Optionally, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In another parallel embodiment, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are provided with a third through hole 41.
[0037] In the above steps, controlling at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be fixed in a preset position includes: controlling at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be fixed in a second preset position, so that the ends of at least two sets of air guide plates 40 near the grille 30 are all pointing to the center of the grille 30, and part of the airflow between at least two sets of air guide plates 40 passes through the third through hole 41.
[0038] In one air supply scenario, every two adjacent sets of air guide plates 40 are fixed during air supply and form an air supply channel 52 that converges towards the center. As a result, part of the airflow at the air duct outlet 121 passes through the central air-gathering effect of the air supply channel 52 and blows forward, enabling long-distance air supply. Furthermore, part of the airflow at the air duct outlet 121 can pass through the third through hole 41 on the air guide plate 40, so that the air conditioner can achieve a central air-gathering effect while also achieving a gentle breeze effect on both sides, thus meeting different air supply needs under the same air supply mode of the air conditioner.
[0039] Optionally, refer to Figure 8 The third through hole 41 can be provided on some of the air guide plates 40, or it can be provided on all of the air guide plates 40. Optionally, the third through hole 41 can be provided only in a part of the air guide plate 40, or it can be provided in all areas of the air guide plate 40. This application does not make specific limitations, but only takes the example of providing the third through hole 41 on all of the air guide plates 40 for explanation.
[0040] Optionally, refer to Figures 9-11 The air conditioner also includes a first air sweeping assembly 50 and a second air sweeping assembly 60 located below the first air sweeping assembly 50. The first air sweeping assembly 50 includes at least one first air sweeping blade 51, and the second air sweeping assembly 60 includes at least one second air sweeping blade 61.
[0041] Reference Figures 3-11 The air conditioning control method in this application embodiment further includes the following steps: S102: In response to the air supply command of the air conditioner, control the sliding door 20 to open the air outlet 11, and control at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to swing up and down to sweep, freeze, or move and then freeze.
[0042] In the control method of this application embodiment, at least one first sweeping blade 51 and at least one second sweeping blade 61 can rotate independently, achieving up-and-down swinging sweeping within their respective set swing ranges. In the air conditioning supply state, the first sweeping blade 51 can be controlled to swing up and down, rotate to a preset position corresponding to the air supply command, or swing up and down for at least one cycle and then stop at the preset position corresponding to the air supply command. Alternatively, the first sweeping blade 51 can be controlled to swing up and down for at least one cycle, then stop at the preset position for a preset time, and then continue swinging up and down for at least one cycle, thus forming a motion cycle. Similarly, when the air conditioning is supplying air, the second sweeping blade 61 can also be controlled to swing up and down, stop, or stop after movement, following, for example, the motion pattern of the first sweeping blade 51.
[0043] When the air conditioner is blowing air, it can control the movement of only the first sweeping blade 51 and only the second sweeping blade 61, or it can control the movement of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 separately. The movement includes the above-mentioned up-and-down swinging sweeping, stationary movement, and stationary movement after movement.
[0044] The motion-after-freezing embodiments of this application include the above-mentioned motion-after-freezing after rotating to a set position, motion-after-freezing after at least one cycle of up-and-down swinging and sweeping, motion-after-freezing after at least one cycle of up-and-down swinging according to a preset motion cycle, and motion-after-freezing for a set time and then motion-after-freezing for at least one cycle of up-and-down swinging and sweeping.
[0045] In this embodiment, during air conditioning operation, various combinations of the movement patterns of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 can be controlled. For example, when the first sweeping blade 51 is fixed at a preset position based on an air supply command, the second sweeping blade 61 can be controlled to swing up and down. Alternatively, both the first and second sweeping blades 51 can be fixed at their respective preset positions corresponding to the air supply command. Another example is that both the first and second sweeping blades 51 and 61 can swing up and down based on the corresponding air supply command, and so on. All possible combinations of the first and second sweeping blades 51 and 61 are not listed here. Therefore, based on different air supply modes of the air conditioner, the first and second sweeping blades 51 can coordinate their movements to meet the air supply requirements of the corresponding mode, thereby expanding the air supply scenarios of the air conditioner and improving its adaptability to various scenarios.
[0046] Optionally, at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and / or the second sweeping blade 61 is provided with a through hole, thereby enabling the through hole of the first sweeping blade 51 and / or the second sweeping blade 61 to cut the clump of air blown out of the air duct 12, achieving a gentle breeze effect. Different combinations of motion of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 can achieve different degrees of gentle breeze effect.
[0047] Optionally, refer to Figures 9-11 In one alternative embodiment, the second sweeping blade 61 is provided with a first through hole 611.
[0048] In step S102 above, controlling at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to swing up and down, freeze, or freeze after movement includes: controlling the first sweeping blade 51 to freeze at a first upward tilting angle; and controlling the second sweeping blade 61 to freeze at a closing angle, such that the angle between the second sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than a first threshold angle.
[0049] Since both the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 swing independently up and down, in one air supply scenario, the first sweeping blade 51 can be controlled to rotate to a first upward tilting angle, allowing at least one first sweeping blade 51 to guide the air upward. This causes the upper airflow to move downwards under gravity after passing through the upper guide, thereby increasing the airflow velocity, extending the air supply distance, and preventing direct airflow from blowing upwards. The second sweeping blade 61 is positioned upwards or tilted upwards and then fixed, such that the angle between the second sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than a first threshold angle. For example, the second sweeping blade 61 is fixed at a closed angle approximately parallel to the first plane, making the axis of the first through-hole 611 approximately parallel to the air outlet direction. This allows the first through-hole 611 of the second sweeping blade 61 to cut the airflow from the duct 12 into multiple small airflows, achieving a gentle breeze effect in the lower part of the duct 12. Therefore, the air conditioner can achieve both long-distance air supply and gentle breeze effects, further expanding the applicable scenarios of the air conditioner.
[0050] It should be noted that the first plane is the plane where the air outlet 11 is located, and the first plane is parallel to the vertical plane.
[0051] Optionally, the first sweeping blade 51 has multiple blades, and the second sweeping blade 61 has multiple blades.
[0052] Reference Figure 10 In the above steps, controlling the first sweeping blade 51 to be fixed at the first upward tilt angle includes: controlling multiple first sweeping blades 51 to swing upward synchronously, so that an upward tilting air supply channel 52 is formed between two adjacent first sweeping blades 51.
[0053] Continuing with the aforementioned air supply scenario, multiple first sweeping blades 51 can swing upwards synchronously to be uniformly fixed at a first upward tilt angle. At the first upward tilt angle, the multiple first sweeping blades 51 are spaced apart to form an upwardly tilted air supply channel 52, which can not only guide the airflow upwards but also cut the clustered airflow at the top of the air conditioner into multiple streams, achieving a certain soft wind effect.
[0054] Reference Figure 11 In the above steps, controlling the second sweeping blade 61 to be fixed at the closing angle so that the angle between the second sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than the first threshold angle includes: controlling multiple second sweeping blades 61 to swing synchronously and be fixed so that multiple second sweeping blades 61 overlap or partially stack in the vertical direction.
[0055] Continuing with the aforementioned air supply scenario, multiple second sweep blades 61 can swing upward or downward simultaneously and then remain stationary, so that multiple second sweep blades 61 overlap sequentially in the vertical direction, allowing the lower airflow to pass only through the first through hole 611, thereby enhancing the gentle breeze effect of the second sweep blades 61 on the airflow.
[0056] Optionally, based on the characteristics of air conditioning where cold air sinks and hot air rises, when the air conditioner blows cold air, multiple first sweeping blades 51 can be fixed at a first upward tilt angle to blow the cold air upwards, so that it gradually diffuses downwards after reaching the upper part of the space. The second sweeping blades 61 overlap in sequence along the vertical direction to achieve a gentle breeze. This can improve the uniformity of cold air diffusion along the vertical direction and enable rapid temperature control within the space.
[0057] Alternatively, in another alternative embodiment, a second through hole (not shown in the figure) is provided on the first sweeping blade 51.
[0058] In step S102 above, controlling at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to swing up and down, freeze, or freeze after movement includes: controlling the second sweeping blade 61 to freeze at a downward tilting second downward tilting angle. Controlling the first sweeping blade 51 to freeze at a closed angle, such that the angle between the first sweeping blade 51 and the first plane is less than a first threshold angle.
[0059] In one air supply scenario, based on the characteristics of air conditioning where cold air sinks and hot air rises, when the air conditioner blows hot air, multiple second sweeping blades 61 can be fixed at a first downward tilt angle to form a downward-guided air supply channel 52 to deliver the hot air downwards. After being blown out, the hot air rises to the upper space, and the first sweeping blades 51 overlap in sequence along the vertical direction to achieve a gentle breeze. This can improve the uniformity of hot air diffusion along the vertical direction and enable rapid temperature control within the space.
[0060] Alternatively, in another alternative embodiment, a second through hole is provided on the first sweeping blade 51, and a first through hole 611 is provided on the second sweeping blade 61.
[0061] In step S102 above, controlling at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to swing up and down, freeze, or freeze after movement includes: controlling both the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to freeze at the closing angle, so that the included angle between the first sweeping blade 51, the second sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than the first threshold angle.
[0062] In one air supply scenario, the angles between the first sweeping blade 51, the second sweeping blade 61, and the first plane can be controlled to be less than a first threshold angle. The first threshold angle refers to the angle formed between the first sweeping blade 51 and the first plane when both the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 are fixed in a closed state approximately parallel to the first plane. This allows for a comprehensive gentle airflow effect using the first through-hole 611 and the second through-hole, adapting to usage scenarios requiring highly gentle airflow, such as nurseries, mother-and-baby rooms, and elderly rooms, enabling the air conditioner of this application to meet the needs of different user groups.
[0063] In this embodiment, the various motion states of the air guide plate 40, together with the various motion states of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61, can be arbitrarily combined according to the required air supply scenario to further expand the air supply scenarios applicable to the air conditioner. The following describes, as an example, the various motion combinations of the air guide plate 40 with the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61, and the corresponding air supply scenarios.
[0064] In one optional air supply scenario, at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 have their ends near the grille 30 pointing towards the center of the grille 30. The first sweeping blade 51 is fixed at a first downward tilting angle, and the second sweeping blade 61 is fixed at a second upward tilting angle. This allows the at least two sets of air guide vanes 40, the first sweeping blade 51, and the second sweeping blade 61 to work together to concentrate the airflow of the air duct 12 towards the center, further extending the air supply distance and meeting the needs of long-distance precision air supply scenarios.
[0065] In another optional air supply scenario, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are positioned so that the ends of the plates near the grille 30 are pointed to the sides of the grille 30 to achieve lateral air expansion. The first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 are both fixed at the closed angle. Thus, the airflow of the air duct 12 passes through the second through hole of the first sweeping blade 51 and the first through hole 611 of the second sweeping blade 61 to achieve a gentle breeze. Then, after being guided by the sides of the at least two sets of air guide plates 40, the airflow is expanded, and the diffusion range of the softened airflow is increased.
[0066] Optionally, the grille 30 is rotatably disposed at the air outlet 11, such that the air guide channel 33 is located directly in front of the air outlet 11 or inside the air outlet 11.
[0067] Optionally, refer to Figures 12-13 Air conditioning control methods also include: S103: In response to the air conditioning's air supply command, control the grille to swing left and right, stop, or move and then stop.
[0068] In the air conditioning control method of this application embodiment, in response to the air supply command of the air conditioner, the grille 30 can be controlled to swing left and right to expand the airflow diffusion range and make the airflow diffuse evenly; the grille 30 can be controlled to be fixed at a set position corresponding to the air supply command to guide the air forward or to one side, thereby accurately controlling the direction of the airflow blown from the air outlet 11. The grille 30 can be controlled to swing left and right for at least one cycle and then be fixed at the set position corresponding to the air supply command; furthermore, the grille 30 can be controlled to swing left and right for at least one cycle and then be fixed at the set position corresponding to the air supply command for a set time, and this constitutes one motion cycle, which is executed during air supply. Therefore, the adaptability of the air conditioner to various application scenarios can be improved.
[0069] Optionally, refer to Figure 12 The areas at both ends of the air guide channel 33 are different, and the area of the air guide channel 33 gradually transitions from one end to the other. As a result, the airflow can be dispersed to both sides of the grille 30, expanding the diffusion range of the airflow, or the airflow at the air outlet 11 can be converged towards the center of the grille 30, achieving a wind-gathering effect that concentrates the airflow towards the center of the grille 30. This expands the application scenarios of the indoor unit and enhances the multi-scenario adaptability of the indoor unit.
[0070] In step S103 above, refer to Figure 3 , Figures 5-6 In response to the air conditioning's air supply command, the grille 30 is controlled to swing left and right for air sweeping, or to freeze in a fixed position after movement. This includes controlling the grille 30 to freeze in an expanding airflow posture, such that the area of the air guide channel 33 at the outlet end of the grille 30 near the air duct 12 is smaller than the area of the air guide channel 33 at the outlet end away from the air duct 12. Therefore, along the air supply direction, the air guide channel 33 forms a funnel-shaped open channel, which can expand the airflow diffusion range, making the airflow more evenly diffused within the space, and achieving rapid cooling within the space.
[0071] Or, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7In step S103 above, responding to the air supply command from the air conditioner, controlling the grille 30 to swing left and right for air sweeping, to freeze, or to move and then freeze includes: controlling the grille 30 to freeze or move and then freeze in an air-gathering posture, so that the area of the air guide channel 33 at the outlet end of the grille 30 near the air duct 12 is larger than the area of the air guide channel 33 at the outlet end away from the air duct 12. Therefore, along the air supply direction, the air guide channel 33 can form an inward-pointing V-shaped converging channel to achieve an air-gathering effect, extend the airflow delivery distance, and adapt to air supply scenarios requiring precise air delivery over long distances.
[0072] Alternatively, the control grille 30 can be oscillated left and right relative to the airflow direction. This results in a larger airflow range. Consequently, the oscillating grille 30 allows the airflow to diffuse further to both sides, further expanding the airflow diffusion range and improving the temperature uniformity within the space.
[0073] Or, refer to Figure 15 Regarding the state of the central grille 30, in step S103 above, in response to the air supply command of the air conditioner, the grille 30 is controlled to swing left and right to sweep air, freeze, or move and then freeze, including: controlling the grille 30 to freeze so that the air guide channel 33 of the grille 30 is located inside the air outlet 11.
[0074] In this parallel embodiment, the grille 30 can also be controlled to be fixed in a closed state, that is, the grille 30 is rotated so that its side wall 31 faces the air duct outlet 121 to partially block the air outlet 11. At this time, the air guide channel 33 of the grille 30 is located inside the air outlet 11. In one air supply scenario, the grille 30 is rotated so that the air guide channel 33 of the grille 30 is located inside the air outlet 11. The airflow blown out by the air duct 12 does not pass through the air guide channel 33 to soften the airflow, but is blown out directly, increasing the air volume per unit time. This can be adapted to air supply scenarios where indoor ventilation is achieved using air conditioning.
[0075] Of course, in another parallel embodiment, the grille 30 can also swing left and right relative to the closed state to sweep air, which can increase the air volume, expand the airflow diffusion range, and improve the air supply efficiency in the space.
[0076] In this embodiment, the various motion states of the air guide plate 40, along with the various motion states of the air conditioner described above, can be arbitrarily combined according to the required air supply scenario to further expand the applicable air supply scenarios of the air conditioner. The following describes, as an example, various motion combinations of the air guide plate 40 and the grille 30, and the corresponding air supply scenarios.
[0077] Optionally, refer to Figure 13 In step S103 above, in response to the air supply command of the air conditioner, the grille 30 is controlled to swing left and right, freeze, or move and then freeze, including: S31: controlling the grille 30 to move in coordination with the air guide plate 40.
[0078] In step S31, controlling the grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 to move together includes controlling the grille 30 and at least one set of air guide plates 40 to swing left and right synchronously, freeze, or freeze after moving, so that the angle between the extension direction of the air guide channel 33 and the extension direction of the air guide plate 40 is not greater than the second threshold angle.
[0079] In an air delivery scenario where the grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 move in coordination, the grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 swing left and right synchronously to sweep the air, thereby achieving double sweeping when the airflow is blown out, increasing the diffusion range of the airflow to both sides. The aforementioned synchronous left and right swinging of the grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 includes: a situation where some of the air guide plates 40 swing left and right synchronously with the grille 30, while the remaining air guide plates 40 are fixed at a preset angle relative to the first plane; and a situation where all the air guide plates 40 swing in the same direction and swing left and right synchronously with the grille 30 to deliver air.
[0080] In another air delivery scenario where the grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 move in coordination, the grille 30 is fixed at a preset angle relative to the first plane and the air guide plate 40 swings left and right to sweep the air, thereby achieving the effect of dispersing air into the corresponding area in which the grille 30 is facing.
[0081] In another air delivery scenario where the grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 move in coordination, the grille 30 swings left and right to sweep the air, while the air guide plate 40 is fixed at a preset angle relative to the first plane, thereby achieving the effect of dispersing air to the corresponding area.
[0082] This can meet the needs of different air supply scenarios of air conditioning. For example, when some air guide plates 40 and grille 30 swing left and right in sync, and the remaining air guide plates 40 are fixed at a preset angle relative to the first plane, it is possible to control the air guide plates 40 that are relatively close to the air duct outlet 121 to tilt relative to the first plane and opposite to the offset direction of the air duct 12. It is also possible to control the air guide plates 40 that are relatively far away from the air duct outlet 121 to swing left and right to supply air, so as to guide most of the airflow that is close to the offset direction of the air duct 12 to the other side, so that the airflow of the air duct 12 can be blown out after passing through the air guide channel 33 of the grille 30. It is possible to adjust the direction of the airflow blown out of the air duct 12, so that the airflow is diffused more evenly.
[0083] Moreover, at any moment when the air guide plate 40 and the grille 30 move in coordination, the angle between the extension direction of the air guide channel 33 and the extension direction of the air guide plate 40 is not greater than the second threshold angle, so as to avoid interference when the air guide plate 40 and the grille 30 swing left and right. At the same time, it can ensure that most of the airflow that passes through the air guide plate 40 and / or the air guide passes through the air guide channel 33 of the grille 30 to achieve further air softening and improve the air conditioning's air softening performance.
[0084] Optionally, refer to Figure 7At least two sets of air guide plates 40 are arranged at intervals along the left and right directions and swing independently, and at least one set of air guide plates 40 is provided with a third through hole 41.
[0085] In one optional air supply scenario, the control grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 are coordinated in motion, including: The control grille 30 is fixed in a wind-gathering posture after being stationary or moving, so that the area of the air guide channel 33 near the air outlet 11 of the grille 30 is larger than the area of the air guide channel 33 far away from the air outlet 11.
[0086] Control at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be stationary or stationary in the second preset position after movement, so that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are close to one end of the grille 30 and both point to the center of the grille 30, and part of the airflow between at least two sets of air guide plates 40 passes through the third through hole 41.
[0087] In this air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed in a converging posture, and the two adjacent sets of air guide plates 40 swing towards the center of the grille 30 and remain fixed, so that the two adjacent sets of air guide plates 40 form an inverted V-shaped air supply channel 52 that converges towards the center. As a result, the airflow blown out by the air duct 12 flows into the air supply channel 52 to converge towards the center of the air outlet 11, and part of the airflow flows into the air guide channel 33, which gradually converges along the air supply direction, to further improve the air conditioning's air gathering effect and long-distance precise air supply effect; part of the airflow passes through the third through hole 41 of the air guide plate 40 to diffuse to both sides, achieving a gentle breeze effect on both sides of the air conditioner.
[0088] Optionally, in the air-gathering posture of the grille 30, the grille 30 can be located in the center of the air outlet 11, that is, approximately parallel to the first plane, or it can be tilted to the left or right relative to the first plane to adjust the air delivery direction in long-distance air delivery scenarios.
[0089] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 In another optional air supply scenario, the control grille 30 and the air guide plate 40 are coordinated in motion, including: controlling the grille 30 to be fixed or fixed in an air-expanding posture after movement, so that the area of the air guide channel 33 of the grille 30 near the air outlet 11 is smaller than the area of the air guide channel 33 far away from the air outlet 11.
[0090] Control at least two sets of air guide plates 40 to be stationary or stationary in the first preset position, so that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are close to one end of the grille 30 and point to both sides of the grille 30 respectively, and part of the airflow between at least two sets of air guide plates 40 passes through the third through hole 41.
[0091] In this air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed in an expanding posture, and the two adjacent sets of air guide plates 40 swing to both sides of the grille 30 and remain fixed, so that the two adjacent sets of air guide plates 40 form a figure-eight shaped air supply channel 52. As a result, the airflow blown out by the air duct 12 flows into the figure-eight shaped air supply channel 52 to diffuse to both sides of the air outlet 11, and part of the airflow flows into the figure-eight shaped air guide channel 33, which gradually diffuses along the air supply direction, thereby further expanding the diffusion range of the airflow; part of the airflow passes through the third through hole 41 of the air guide plate 40, which can also further expand the diffusion range of the airflow to both sides of the air conditioner, improve the uniformity of airflow diffusion, and achieve rapid temperature control in the space.
[0092] Similarly, in the air-expanding posture of the grille 30, the grille 30 can be located in the center of the air outlet 11, or it can be tilted to the left or right relative to the first plane to adjust the air delivery direction in the scenario of expanding air to both sides.
[0093] Alternatively, in another optional air supply scenario, the only difference from the above-mentioned arrangement where the grille 30 is fixed in the air-expanding posture and the air guide plate 40 forms a figure-eight posture is that when the air conditioner supplies air, the grille 30 swings left and right relative to the air-expanding posture. Thus, the grille 30 can be used to swing left and right to sweep the air. Compared with the above embodiment, this can further expand the airflow diffusion range and make the airflow diffusion more uniform.
[0094] In this embodiment, the various motion states of the grille 30, along with the various motion states of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61, can be arbitrarily combined according to the required air supply scenario to further expand the applicable air supply scenarios of the air conditioner. The following description, as an example, illustrates the various motion combinations of the grille 30 with the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61, and the corresponding air supply scenarios.
[0095] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 as well as Figures 9-11 When the air supply command includes the first air supply command information, the control grille 30 is fixed or fixed in the air expansion posture after movement, or the control grille 30 is swayed left and right relative to the air expansion posture.
[0096] The first sweeping blade 51 is controlled to be in any of the following states, or alternate between a fixed state and an oscillating state: fixed at the open angle, such that the first sweeping blade 51 is perpendicular to the first plane; fixed at the first upward tilt angle; fixed at the closed angle, such that the angle between the first sweeping blade 51 and the first plane is less than the first threshold angle; oscillating upward; oscillating up and down to deliver air.
[0097] And / or, control the second sweeping blade 61 to be in any of the following states, or alternate between a fixed state and an oscillating state: fixed at an open angle, such that the second sweeping blade 61 is perpendicular to the first plane; fixed at a closed angle, such that the angle between the second sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than a first threshold angle; fixed at a downward tilting second downward angle; oscillate downwards; oscillate up and down to deliver air.
[0098] In this embodiment, the first air supply instruction information includes information on expanding the airflow to both sides. Thus, by controlling the grille 30 to be fixed in the expanding posture or to swing left and right relative to the expanding posture, the diffusion range of the airflow to both sides can be expanded.
[0099] When the first air supply instruction information includes information on expanding air to both sides, it is possible to control at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to move in coordination with the grille 30. The first sweeping blade 51 can be fixed, or fixed after movement, for example, fixed at an opening angle perpendicular to the first plane, or fixed at a first upward tilting angle; it can also reciprocate within a preset angle range, for example, reciprocate within the upward tilting angle range, or swing up and down to supply air.
[0100] Of course, when the first air supply command information includes information on expanding air to both sides, the first sweeping blade 51 can also alternate between the above-mentioned at least two motion modes. For example, after the first sweeping blade 51 maintains a reciprocating motion within a tilted upward angle range for multiple cycles, it is fixed at the first upward tilt angle for a set time, and alternates between these two motion modes. Another example is that after the first sweeping blade 51 swings up and down to supply air for at least one cycle, it is fixed at the opening angle perpendicular to the first plane for a set time, and alternates between these two motion modes.
[0101] Similarly, the second sweeping blade 61 can move in a similar manner to the first sweeping blade 51 described above, either by stopping, stopping after movement, or oscillating back and forth together with the first sweeping blade 51, or by stopping, stopping after movement, or oscillating back and forth on its own. The only difference is that the second sweeping blade 61, located below the first sweeping blade 51, oscillates downwards in some movements, or stops at a downward tilting second angle.
[0102] In one air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed in an expanding posture, swings left and right relative to the expanding posture, or alternates between the two, thereby controlling the state of the grille 30 to achieve different degrees of expanding effect. The second sweeping blade 61 has a first through hole 611. When the air conditioner blows cold air, the first sweeping blade 51 can be fixed at an upward tilting angle, and the second sweeping blade 61 can be fixed at a closed angle. Thus, the upward air supply channel 52 formed by the first sweeping blade 51 can be used to project the upper airflow, extending the air supply distance; the first through hole 611 of the second sweeping blade 61 can be used to achieve a soft wind effect on the lower airflow. Then, the airflow passes through the outward diverging air guide channel 33 of the grille 30 to achieve expanding airflow. Thus, while extending the upper airflow delivery distance, the airflow can be guided to blow out in a diffused state, achieving a long-distance expanding airflow effect and enabling rapid temperature control within the space. It can also guide the airflow to blow out in a diffused state while achieving a soft wind effect, achieving a wide-range soft wind, avoiding direct airflow, and meeting multiple air supply needs at the same time. Alternatively, the first sweeping blade 51 is provided with a second through hole. When the air conditioner blows hot air, the second sweeping blade 61 is controlled to be fixed at the second downward tilt angle to form a downward tilting air supply channel 52. The first sweeping blade 51 is fixed at the closed angle to achieve the effect of long-distance air supply and air expansion at the bottom, and the effect of gentle air and air expansion at the top.
[0103] In another air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed in an expanding posture, swings left and right relative to the expanding posture, or alternates between the two. The first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 both swing up and down to sweep the air. This can improve the range and uniformity of airflow diffusion in the vertical direction. Then, the airflow passes through the gradually outward-spreading air guide channel 33, which guides the airflow to be blown out in a diffused state. This can expand the range and uniformity of airflow diffusion in the horizontal direction.
[0104] In another air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed in an expanding posture, swings left and right relative to the expanding posture, or alternates between the two. The first sweeping blade 51 swings upward to supply air, and the second sweeping blade 61 swings downward to supply air. This enables long-distance air supply and lateral expansion, as well as gentle wind and lateral expansion, while expanding the airflow diffusion range in the vertical direction. In one air supply mode, it can meet a variety of air supply needs.
[0105] In other air supply scenarios, the grille 30 is fixed in an expanding posture, swings left and right relative to the expanding posture, or alternates between the two. The first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 are both fixed at the closed angle. The first sweeping blade 51 is provided with a second through hole, and the second sweeping blade 61 is provided with a first through hole 611. This allows both the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to achieve a gentle breeze effect, thereby expanding the diffusion range of the gentle airflow and improving the uniformity of the gentle airflow diffusion in the space.
[0106] In other air supply scenarios, only the first sweeping blade 51 or the second sweeping blade 61 can be controlled to perform the corresponding state mentioned above, while the remaining second sweeping blade 61 or the first sweeping blade 51 can remain in the state when the machine was last turned off.
[0107] Optionally, in another air supply scenario, in response to the air supply command from the air conditioner, the sliding door 20 is controlled to open, and the air guide plate 40 is controlled to swing left and right, freeze, or move and then freeze, including: Reference Figure 3 When the air supply command includes the first air supply command information, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are fixed in the first preset position, so that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are close to one end of the grille 30 and point to both sides of the grille 30 respectively.
[0108] Continuing with any air delivery scenario using the aforementioned grille 30, first sweeping blade 51, and second sweeping blade 61, at least two sets of guide vanes 40 can be fixed in place, forming air delivery channels 52 that radiate to both sides. This guides the airflow to diffuse to both sides, further increasing the airflow diffusion range. It also balances the air volume of the central air delivery and the air delivery on both sides, making the airflow diffusion more uniform.
[0109] Optionally, refer to Figures 7-9 When the air supply command includes the second air supply command information, the control grille 30 is fixed or fixed in the air gathering posture after movement.
[0110] The first sweeping blade 51 is controlled to be in the following states, or alternate between a fixed state and an oscillating state: fixed at the open angle, so that the first sweeping blade 51 is perpendicular to the first plane; fixed at the closed angle, so that the angle between the first sweeping blade 51 and the first plane is less than the first threshold angle; fixed at the first downward tilt angle; oscillating downward; oscillating up and down to deliver air.
[0111] And / or, control the second sweeping blade 61 to be in any of the following states, or alternate between a fixed state and an oscillating state: fixed at an open angle, such that the second sweeping blade 61 is perpendicular to the first plane; fixed at a closed angle, such that the angle between the second sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than the first threshold angle; fixed at a second upward tilt angle; oscillate upward; oscillate up and down to deliver air.
[0112] When the second air supply command information includes information on concentrating air towards the center, the control grille 30 is fixed in the air-concentrating posture. The grille 30 can be approximately parallel to the first plane, or tilted to the left or right relative to the first plane.
[0113] In one optional air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed or, after movement, fixed in a wind-gathering posture. The first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 are both fixed at the opening angle to cut the clustered airflow of the air duct 12 into multiple streams and send the airflow forward. Then, the airflow passes through the gradually converging air guide channel 33 to reduce the range of the multiple airflows and achieve a wind-gathering effect. This can increase the air delivery distance of the multiple airflows, so as to extend the air delivery distance of the airflow while achieving a gentle breeze, and meet the air supply requirements that require long-distance air delivery.
[0114] In another air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed or fixed in a wind-gathering posture after movement, and the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 swing up and down to sweep the air. This can improve the diffusion range of the airflow along the height direction and achieve gentle wind and long-distance air supply.
[0115] In another air supply scenario, the grille 30 is fixed or, after movement, fixed in a converging posture. When the air conditioner blows hot air, the first sweeping blade 51 is fixed at a downward tilt angle or sweeps downwards, while the second sweeping blade 61 swings up and down to concentrate the airflow towards the center, further extending the air delivery distance. This allows the hot air to diffuse further away from the air conditioner, ensuring a more even mixing of cold and hot air within the space. Alternatively, when the air conditioner blows cold air, the first sweeping blade 51 swings up and down, while the second sweeping blade 61 is fixed at a second upward tilt angle or sweeps upwards. This concentrates the airflow towards the center, allowing it to diffuse further away from the air conditioner, resulting in a more even mixing of cold and hot air within the space and reducing the phenomenon of cold air sinking and hot air rising.
[0116] In other air supply scenarios, only some of the first sweep blades 51 or the second sweep blades 61 can be controlled to perform the corresponding states mentioned above, while the remaining second sweep blades 61 or the first sweep blades 51 remain in the state they were in when the machine was last turned off.
[0117] Optionally, refer to Figure 7 In response to the air conditioner's air supply command, the sliding door 20 is opened, and the air guide plate 40 is controlled to swing left and right, stay still, or move and then stay still, including: When the air supply command includes the second air supply command information, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are controlled to be fixed in the second preset position, so that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are close to one end of the grille 30 and all point to the center of the grille 30.
[0118] Continuing with the above-mentioned grille 30 fixed in the concentrated air supply scenario of wind gathering posture, the air guide plate 40 can form an air supply channel 52 that converges towards the center to gather the airflow blown out by the air duct 12, and then blow it out through the gradually converging air guide channel 33, further improving the wind gathering effect and further extending the air supply distance.
[0119] Optionally, refer to Figures 1-7 There are two sliding doors 20, which are spaced apart in the left and right direction, and the grille 30 is located between the two sliding doors 20.
[0120] Reference Figure 14 The air conditioning control method in this application embodiment further includes: S104: In response to the air supply command of the air conditioner, control the sliding door 20 of the air conditioner to move to a set position or move periodically to expose at least part of the air outlet 11 to form an airflow outlet 13, and control the position of the airflow outlet 13.
[0121] In the air supply state, the sliding door 20 moves to a set position or moves periodically. When the sliding door 20 moves to different positions, different parts of the air outlet 11 are exposed as air outlets 13, resulting in air outlets 13 with different directions. Thus, the direction of the air outlet 13 can be adjusted by using the movement of the sliding door 20, and the direction of the airflow blown out by the air conditioner can be precisely controlled to adapt to different air supply scenarios.
[0122] Optionally, refer to Figure 14 In step S104 above, in response to the air supply command of the air conditioner, the sliding door 20 of the air conditioner is controlled to move to a set position or move periodically to expose at least part of the air outlet 11 to form an airflow outlet 13, and the position of the airflow outlet 13 is controlled, including: controlling the distance between the two sliding doors 20 to remain consistent during periodic movement; or, controlling the distance between the two sliding doors 20 to change periodically during periodic movement.
[0123] In this embodiment, the distance between the two sliding doors 20 is adjusted according to the user-preset air volume. However, the minimum distance between the two sliding doors 20 when they are open should be greater than a certain proportion of the width of the grille 30, such as greater than 1 / 2 of the width of the grille 30, to avoid interference when the grille 30 swings left and right to sweep the air.
[0124] It should be noted that this application is only an example of limiting the minimum distance between the two sliding doors 20 when they are open. The specific value of the minimum distance between the two sliding doors 20 when they are open should be set according to the structural form of the grille 30 and the range in which the grille 30 can swing left and right.
[0125] When the distance between the two sliding doors 20 changes periodically during their periodic movement, the distance in the middle can be set to be the smallest to avoid direct airflow. The distance between the two sides can be increased to improve the airflow volume at the side outlets, thus balancing the airflow volume between the side outlets and the middle outlet and improving the uniformity of airflow diffusion. Alternatively, the distance between the two sliding doors 20 can be controlled to gradually change and transition, ensuring uniform airflow diffusion.
[0126] Optionally, the periodic movement of the sliding door 20 can also be coordinated with the movement of the grille 30. For example, when the sliding door 20 is fixed in a set position, exposing the air outlet 11 corresponding to the set position as the airflow outlet 13, the grille 30 rotates and is fixed at the angle corresponding to the airflow outlet 13, or swings left and right within the range corresponding to the airflow outlet 13, so as to achieve gentle breeze and diffused air in a specific area as needed, further expanding the air supply scenario of the air conditioner.
[0127] Optionally, refer to Figure 15 The air conditioning control method in this application embodiment further includes: S105: In response to the air conditioner's shutdown command, control the air guide plate 40 to rotate until the angle between it and the first plane is less than the third threshold angle, so that the distance between the air guide plate 40 and the sliding door 20 is greater than the distance between the two side walls 31 of the grille 30.
[0128] While the sliding door 20 and the grille 30 move to the closed position, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 can independently rotate clockwise or counterclockwise based on the state at the time of shutdown or the fixed angle, so that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are closed. The angle between the closed air guide plate 40 and the first plane is less than the third threshold angle, that is, the closed state is approximately parallel to the first plane, which reduces the space occupied by the air guide plate 40 in the front-back direction and avoids mutual interference between the air guide plate 40 and the grille 30.
[0129] Optionally, the air conditioning control method in this application embodiment further includes: S106: In response to the air conditioner's shutdown command, control the first air sweeping blade 51 and the second air sweeping blade 61 to rotate to the shutdown angle, so that the included angle between the first air sweeping blade 51 and the second air sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than the first threshold angle.
[0130] Optionally, the air conditioning control method in this application embodiment further includes: S107: Reference Figure 15 In response to the air conditioner's shutdown command, the control sliding door 20 is closed, and the control grille 30 is sandwiched between the two sliding doors 20, so that the side wall 31 of the grille 30 and the sliding door 20 together seal the air outlet 11; the side wall 31 of the grille 30 and the sliding door 20 together form a continuous transitional appearance surface.
[0131] When the air conditioner is turned off, the two sliding doors 20 gradually close towards the grille 30. The grille 30 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise based on the state or fixed angle at the moment the air conditioner is turned off, so that the two sliding doors 20 approach or contact the side wall 31 of the grille 30. This makes the side wall 31 of the grille 30 and the sliding doors 20 together form a continuous and consistent indoor unit display surface, improving the display effect of the air conditioner indoor unit.
[0132] It should be noted that steps S101 to S107 in the control method of this application embodiment are merely examples for ease of description and distinction. When the air conditioner is turned on to supply air, steps S101 to S104 have no specific order; when the air conditioner is turned off, steps S105 to S107 have no specific order. In this application embodiment, the example of executing S105, S106, and S107 sequentially from the inside to the outside when the air conditioner is turned off is used for explanation, in order to avoid interference between the grille 30, the air guide plate 40, the first sweeping blade 51, and the second sweeping blade 61.
[0133] Based on the same inventive concept, referring to Figures 1-15 This application also provides an air conditioner, including: a housing assembly 10 having an air outlet 11, a sliding door 20 slidable relative to the housing assembly 10, and a grille 30 disposed at the air outlet 11, the grille 30 having an air guide channel 33.
[0134] When the air conditioner is in operation, the sliding door 20 is opened, and the air guide plate 40 is configured to swing left and right, stay still, or move and then stay still.
[0135] When the air conditioner delivers air in this embodiment, the air guide plate 40 can continuously swing left and right to continuously fan the airflow at the air outlet 11. It can also rotate and freeze, or swing left and right for at least one revolution and then freeze at a preset position to form an air delivery channel 52 facing a set direction. It can also swing left and right for at least one cycle and then freeze at the set position for a set time, thus performing air delivery as a motion cycle. Therefore, when the air conditioner delivers air, it can adjust various motion states of the air guide plate 40 so that the airflow is evenly diffused in the space and the requirement to deliver air in a set direction can be met, thereby expanding the diffusion range of the airflow and improving the uniformity of the airflow diffusion to meet the air delivery needs of different scenarios of air conditioning.
[0136] Optionally, refer to Figures 3-7 The air guide vanes 40 include at least two sets arranged at intervals along the left and right directions; each set of air guide vanes 40 is controlled independently. The at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 are configured to: swing left and right in the same direction, swing left and right in opposite directions, or be fixed in a preset position, or at least one set swings left and right while the other at least one set is fixed.
[0137] In this embodiment, each set of air guide vanes 40 rotates independently, meaning each vane 40 is driven to rotate by a different drive structure. Therefore, during air conditioning operation, at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 can be configured to swing in the same or opposite directions, allowing them to swing left and right in the same direction or in opposite directions. Furthermore, at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 can be fixed in a preset position, forming a predetermined shape, causing airflow to diffuse to the sides or converge towards the center. Additionally, some air guide vanes 40 can be positioned at a predetermined angle, while the remaining vanes 40 swing back and forth within a certain angle range, achieving the beneficial effects of uniform airflow, ensuring uniform mixing of hot and cold air indoors, and expanding the airflow range.
[0138] Optionally, continue to refer to Figures 3-7 At least two sets of air guide vanes 40 are symmetrically arranged relative to the centerline of the air outlet 11 in the vertical direction. This improves the uniformity of airflow diffusion to both sides when air is supplied from both sides.
[0139] Optionally, refer to Figure 15 When the air outlet 11 is closed, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 overlap in the left and right directions; when the air outlet 11 is open, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are arranged at intervals in the left and right directions.
[0140] In this embodiment, when the sliding door 20 is closed, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 can rotate to the same side, so that multiple sets of air guide plates 40 are stacked in sequence, which can shorten the space occupied by the air guide plates 40 in the front-back direction and avoid interference between the grille 30 and at least two sets of air guide plates 40 when the air conditioner is turned off.
[0141] Optionally, continue to refer to Figures 3-7 Each set of air guide plates 40 includes two arranged at intervals along the left and right directions, and each air guide plate 40 extends along the up and down direction.
[0142] Optionally, the preset positions when the air guide plate 40 is fixed include a first preset position, a second preset position, a third preset position, and a fourth preset position.
[0143] Reference Figure 3 At a first preset position, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are positioned near one end of the grille 30, pointing towards both sides of the grille 30. As a result, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 swing to both sides, forming a figure-eight shape in the horizontal plane, creating air delivery channels 52 that radiate to both sides, which can promote the diffusion of the airflow blown out of the air duct 12 to both sides, thereby expanding the diffusion range of the airflow.
[0144] Reference Figure 4At the second preset position, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are positioned near the end of the grille 30, all pointing towards the center of the grille 30. As a result, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 swing towards the center, forming an inverted V-shape in the horizontal plane, creating an air delivery channel 52 that converges towards the center. This concentrates the airflow blown out by the air duct 12 towards the center, achieving the air-gathering effect of the air conditioner, extending the air delivery distance, and meeting the needs of ultra-long-distance air delivery scenarios.
[0145] Reference Figure 5 At the third preset position, at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 are parallel and intersect the first plane at an incline. Thus, the at least two sets of air guide vanes 40 form an air supply channel 52 inclined to the first plane to guide air to the left or right side of the air conditioner.
[0146] Optionally, when the tilt direction of at least two sets of air guide plates 40 is opposite to the offset direction of the air duct 12, the effect of the airflow in the air duct 12 being offset to one side can be eliminated or improved, making the airflow diffusion more uniform. When the tilt direction of at least two sets of air guide plates 40 is the same as the offset direction of the air duct 12, the wind resistance of the airflow in the air duct 12 passing through the air delivery channel 52 formed by the air guide plates 40 can be reduced, and the air delivery distance can be extended.
[0147] Reference Figure 6 At the fourth preset position, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are perpendicular to the first plane. This enables a forward air delivery effect.
[0148] Optionally, refer to Figures 7-8 The air guide plate 40 has a third through hole 41, which is connected to the air outlet 11.
[0149] In this embodiment, when the air guide plate 40 swings to deliver air, the airflow is cut into multiple tiny airflows through the third through hole 41, achieving a gentle breeze. When two adjacent sets of air guide plates 40 form a centrally converging air delivery channel 52, part of the airflow is blown out through the converging air delivery channel 52 to achieve air concentration, and then part of the airflow passes through the third through hole 41 to achieve a gentle breeze. Thus, while achieving precise air delivery over long distances, it also achieves gentle breezes on both sides, expanding the air delivery scenarios of the air conditioner.
[0150] Optionally, refer to Figure 12 The grille 30 is rotatably mounted on the air outlet 11, and the air guide channel 33 is located directly in front of the air outlet 11 or inside the air outlet 11. The areas of the two ends of the air guide channel 33 are different, and the area of the air guide channel 33 gradually transitions from one end to the other.
[0151] In this embodiment, by designing different areas at both ends of the air guide channel 33, the grille 30 of this embodiment, compared to the traditional grille 30 which only has a straight air guide channel 33, can make the airflow diverge to both sides of the grille 30, expanding the diffusion range of the airflow, and can also make the airflow at the air outlet 11 converge towards the center of the grille 30, achieving the effect of converging the airflow towards the center of the grille 30, thereby expanding the application scenarios of the indoor unit and improving the multi-scenario adaptability of the indoor unit.
[0152] Furthermore, the rotatable grille 30 allows the air guide channel 33 to be positioned in front of the air outlet 11 during air conditioning operation, thus achieving a gentle breeze. Alternatively, the air guide channel 33 can be positioned inside the air outlet 11, allowing the airflow from the duct 12 to pass directly through the air guide plate 40 and be blown out without passing through the air guide channel 33, thus achieving a gentle breeze.
[0153] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 as well as Figures 5-6 The air conditioner includes an air duct 12 disposed within the housing assembly 10. In the air-expanding posture of the grille 30, the area of the portion of the air guide channel 33 closer to the air duct 12 is smaller than the area of the portion of the air guide channel 33 farther from the air duct 12. This expands the range of airflow blown out through the air guide channel 33, thus increasing the airflow diffusion range.
[0154] Optionally, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7 In the wind-gathering posture of the grille 30, the area of the air guide channel 33 near the air duct 12 is larger than the area of the air guide channel 33 away from the air duct 12. As a result, the airflow blown out of the air guide channel 33 can be concentrated towards the center, achieving a wind-gathering effect.
[0155] Optionally, when the air conditioner is supplying air, the grille 30 can be fixed in an air-expanding posture, swinging left and right relative to the air-expanding posture, and then fixed after at least one cycle of left and right swinging relative to the air-expanding posture. It can also be fixed in an air-concentrating posture, swinging left and right relative to the air-concentrating posture for at least one cycle before fixing. The air-concentrating posture and air-expanding posture of the grille 30 can be inclined to the first plane or parallel to the first plane.
[0156] Optionally, refer to Figure 15 When the air conditioner is off, the side wall 31 of the grille 30 is sandwiched between the two sliding doors 20, and the side wall 31 of the grille 30 and the surface of the sliding door 20 form a continuous transition appearance.
[0157] Optionally, the grille 30 includes two grille surfaces 32 disposed opposite to each other and two sidewalls 31 disposed opposite to each other, the grille surfaces 32 being located between the two sidewalls 31 of the grille 30, and the sidewalls 31 protruding beyond at least one grille surface 32.
[0158] In this embodiment, the sidewall 31 of the grille 30 is widened, causing it to protrude beyond at least one grille surface 32. This makes the sidewall 31 of the grille 30 larger than the assembly gap that exists when the two sliding doors 20 are closed to their extreme positions. Therefore, when the sliding doors 20 are closed, the gap between the grille 30 and the sliding doors 20 is reduced, decreasing the ingress of external dust. Furthermore, the sidewall 31 of the grille 30 and the surface of the sliding doors 20 form a continuous transition surface.
[0159] Optionally, refer to Figure 16 In this embodiment of the application, the grille 30 can also form an air guide tube with an internal cavity. The air guide tube includes a first grille plate 34 and a second grille plate 35. Both the first grille plate 34 and the second grille plate 35 are provided with air guide channels 33. The airflow can be doubly gentle, which can improve the gentle air effect of the grille 30, improve the deformation resistance of the grille 30, and extend the service life of the grille 30.
[0160] Optionally, refer to Figure 14 There are two sliding doors 20, which are arranged at a distance from each other in the left and right direction. In the air supply state, the sliding doors 20 can move to a set position or move periodically. When the sliding doors 20 move to different positions, different parts of the air outlet 11 are exposed as air outlets 13, resulting in air outlets 13 with different orientations. Therefore, the orientation of the air outlets 13 can be adjusted by moving the sliding doors 20, and the direction of the air blown by the air conditioner can be precisely controlled to adapt to different air supply scenarios.
[0161] Optionally, at least one sliding door 20 may have a fourth through hole (not shown in the figure). When the air conditioner is blowing air, the airflow can also pass through the fourth through hole on the sliding door 20 to achieve a gentle breeze, so as to further improve the gentle breeze effect and expand the different air supply scenarios of the air conditioner.
[0162] Optionally, refer to Figures 3-15 The air conditioner in this embodiment of the application also includes an up-and-down air sweeping assembly and a dust filter 70. The up-and-down air sweeping assembly is used for up-and-down air sweeping. The air guide plate 40 is located on the front side of the dust filter 70, and the up-and-down air sweeping assembly is located on the rear side of the dust filter 70.
[0163] Optionally, refer to Figure 9 The vertical sweeping assembly of this application embodiment includes a first sweeping assembly 50 and a second sweeping assembly 60. The second sweeping assembly 60 is located below the first sweeping assembly 50. The first sweeping assembly 50 includes at least one first sweeping blade 51 arranged at intervals along the vertical direction, and the second sweeping assembly 60 includes at least one second sweeping blade 61 arranged at intervals along the vertical direction.
[0164] When the air conditioner is in operation, the sliding door 20 is opened, and at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 is configured to swing up and down, stop, or stop after movement.
[0165] In this embodiment, based on different air supply modes of the air conditioner, the first sweeping blade 51 can move, the second sweeping blade 61 can move, or the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 can move in coordination to meet the air supply requirements of the corresponding air supply mode, thereby expanding the air supply scenarios of the air conditioner and improving its multi-scenario adaptability. The aforementioned movements include up-and-down swinging, freezing, or freezing after movement, and also include freezing after movement for a set time, thus forming a reciprocating movement cycle.
[0166] Optionally, a second through hole is provided on the first sweeping blade 51, and / or a first through hole 611 is provided on the second sweeping blade 61.
[0167] In this embodiment, the second through hole may be provided only on the first sweeping blade 51, the first through hole 611 may be provided only on the second sweeping blade 61, or the second through hole may be provided on both the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61. This can satisfy the air supply requirements of different scenarios. The following describes the selectable air supply scenarios in this embodiment.
[0168] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 In the first air supply mode of the air conditioner, the grille 30 is configured to be stationary, stationary in the air-expanding posture after movement, or swing left and right relative to the air-expanding posture.
[0169] When the air conditioner blows cold air, the first sweeping blade 51 is configured to be fixed at a first upward tilt angle; the second sweeping blade 61 is configured to be fixed at a closed angle, such that the angle between the second sweeping blade 61 and the first plane is less than a first threshold angle. Thus, by utilizing the characteristic of cold air sinking and hot air rising in an air conditioner, the cold air is blown upwards, reaching the upper part of the space and then gradually diffusing downwards. With the second sweeping blade 61 closed, the airflow passes through the first through-hole 611 to achieve a gentle breeze, thereby improving the uniformity of cold air diffusion in the vertical direction and enabling rapid temperature control within the space.
[0170] Alternatively, when the air conditioner blows hot air, the first sweeping blade 51 is configured to be fixed at the closed angle, such that the angle between the first sweeping blade 51 and the first plane is less than the first threshold angle; the second sweeping blade 61 is configured to be fixed at a downward tilting second angle. This utilizes the characteristic of cold air sinking and hot air rising in an air conditioner to deliver hot air downwards. After being blown out, the hot air rises to the upper space, where the second through-hole of the first sweeping blade 51 creates a gentle breeze. This improves the uniformity of hot air diffusion in the vertical direction, enabling rapid temperature control within the space.
[0171] Optionally, the first sweeping blade 51 has multiple blades, and the second sweeping blade 61 has multiple blades.
[0172] At the first upward tilt angle of the multiple first sweeping blades 51, the multiple first sweeping blades 51 form an upwardly tilted air supply channel 52. At the closing angle of the multiple second sweeping blades 61, the multiple second sweeping blades 61 overlap or partially stack in the vertical direction.
[0173] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 In the first air supply mode, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are configured to be fixed in a first preset position, such that the ends of the at least two sets of air guide plates 40 close to the grille 30 are respectively pointing to both sides of the grille 30. Thus, in the first air supply mode described above, the air guide plates 40 can also be individually controlled to rotate, forming an outwardly opening air supply channel 52, guiding the airflow to diffuse to both sides, and expanding the diffusion range of the airflow.
[0174] Optionally, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7 In the second air supply mode of the air conditioner, the grille 30 is configured to be stationary or stationary in a wind-gathering posture after movement.
[0175] The first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 are configured to be fixed at the opening angle, such that both the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 are perpendicular to the first plane. This reduces air resistance as the airflow passes over the surfaces of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61, further extending the airflow's delivery distance.
[0176] Alternatively, the first sweeping blade 51 can be configured to swing up and down to deliver air, and the second sweeping blade 61 can be configured to swing up and down to deliver air. This can guide the clustered airflow of the air duct 12 to diffuse upward and downward, improve the uniformity of airflow diffusion along the height direction, and at the same time, the grille 30 can be used to concentrate the airflow and extend the air delivery distance.
[0177] Alternatively, the first sweeping blade 51 can be fixed at a downward tilting angle, while the second sweeping blade 61 swings up and down to deliver air. In scenarios where the air conditioner blows hot air and long-distance air delivery is required, the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 can be controlled to form the above-mentioned configuration. This allows for the uniform mixing of hot and cold air, while the first sweeping blade 51 concentrates the airflow towards the center, achieving long-distance air delivery.
[0178] Alternatively, the first sweeping blade 51 can be configured to swing up and down to deliver air, while the second sweeping blade 61 can be configured to be fixed at a second upward tilting angle. Thus, in scenarios where the air conditioner blows hot air and long-distance air delivery is required, the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 can be controlled to form the above-described state to achieve uniform mixing of hot and cold air, and the second sweeping blade 61 can be used to concentrate the airflow towards the center to achieve long-distance air delivery.
[0179] Optionally, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7 In the second air supply mode, at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are configured to be fixed in the second preset position, such that at least two sets of air guide plates 40 are close to one end of the grille 30 and both point to the center of the grille 30.
[0180] In this embodiment of the application, in the second air supply mode of the air conditioner, the state of at least two sets of air guide plates 40 can be combined to achieve central air concentration, so as to further improve the air concentration effect of the air conditioner and achieve long-distance precise air supply.
[0181] Optionally, at least one first sweeping blade 51 is rotatably connected to the first sidewall 122 of the air duct 12 within the housing assembly 10. (Refer to...) Figures 9-11 The first sweeping assembly 50 also includes a first connecting rod 53 and a first driving structure 54. At least one first sweeping blade 51 is arranged at a distance on the first connecting rod 53. The first driving structure 54 is used to drive the first connecting rod 53 to move in the up and down direction so as to drive at least one first sweeping blade 51 to swing up and down synchronously.
[0182] In this embodiment, the first connecting rod 53 extends vertically, and multiple first sweeping blades 51 are arranged at intervals and are all connected to the first connecting rod 53. The first driving structure 54 may include a drive motor 541 and a transmission crank 542. One end of the transmission crank 542 is connected to the rotor of the drive motor 541, and the other end is connected to the first connecting rod 53. When the drive motor 541 is started, the transmission crank 542 and the multiple first sweeping blades 51 together restrict the vertical movement of the first connecting rod 53. When the first connecting rod 53 moves vertically, it drives the multiple first sweeping blades 51 to swing up and down synchronously.
[0183] Optionally, an air guide frame 123 is provided at the first side wall 122 of the air duct 12, and the drive motor 541 is mounted on the air guide frame 123.
[0184] Optionally, at least one second sweeping blade 61 is rotatably connected to the first sidewall 122 of the air duct 12 inside the housing assembly 10. The second sweeping assembly 60 also includes a second link 62 and a second drive structure 63, with at least one second sweeping blade 61 spaced along the second link 62; the second drive structure 63 is used to drive the second link 62 to move up and down, so as to drive at least one second sweeping blade 61 to swing up and down synchronously.
[0185] In this embodiment, the second link 62 and the second drive structure 63 are consistent with the structure and arrangement of the first link 53 and the first drive structure 54 described above, and can control the multiple second sweeping blades 61 to swing up and down synchronously, which will not be described in detail here.
[0186] Based on the same inventive concept, this application provides an air conditioner control device, which includes a processing module and a control module. The processing module is used to acquire the air supply command from the air conditioner. The control module is used to control the sliding door 20 to open and the air guide plate 40 to swing, freeze, or move and then freeze based on the air supply command.
[0187] Optionally, the control module is also used to control the grille to swing left and right, freeze, or freeze after movement based on the air supply command.
[0188] Optionally, the control module is also used to control at least one of the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to swing up and down, freeze, or freeze after movement, based on the air supply command.
[0189] Optionally, the processing module is also used to acquire a shutdown command from the air conditioner. The control module is also used to control the sliding door 20, the grille 30, and the air guide plate 40 to close based on the shutdown command. The control module can also control the first sweeping blade 51 and the second sweeping blade 61 to rotate and stay at the closing angle based on the shutdown command.
