[0002] As people's living standards improve, air handling units are being used more and more widely in daily life. With some traditional air handling units, users can adjust the airflow direction as needed. In some scenarios, users need to avoid the radiation range of the air handling unit's outlet due to illness or other reasons. However, in these scenarios, users may frequently change their location.

[0061] To make the technical solution and beneficial effects of this application more apparent and understandable, a detailed description is provided below by listing specific embodiments. Unless otherwise defined, the technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meanings as those in the technical field to which this application pertains. The terminology used in the specification of this application is for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and is not intended to limit this application.

[0062] See Figure 1 This application provides an exhaust control method for an air handling unit, as described in some embodiments. The air handling unit has at least one adjustable air outlet.

[0063] Exhaust control methods include:

[0064] Step 100: Obtain the current location information between the target user and the air handling equipment.

[0065] It should be noted that, in this application, the current location information refers to the line connecting the current location of the target user and the location of the air handling unit. In other embodiments, the current location information may also refer to the azimuth angle between the target user and the air handling unit; this is not limited here, as long as it represents the relative positional relationship between the target user and the air handling unit.

[0066] It is understood that in this application, the target user can be a target user detected by the monitoring rules of the monitoring device, or a pre-defined user. The specific setting can be made according to needs and is not limited here.

[0067] Step 200: Based on the current location information, control the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet to avoid the target user.

[0068] It should be noted that the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet refers to the airflow direction at the center of the air outlet.

[0069] It is understandable that in step 200, controlling the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet to avoid the target user means controlling the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet so that the location of the target user is outside the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet, so as to avoid the airflow blown by the adjustable air outlet directly hitting the target user.

[0070] The aforementioned ventilation control method can automatically adjust the airflow direction of the adjustable vents based on the target user's current location information to avoid the target user. This eliminates the need for frequent user intervention while still meeting the user's need to avoid the airflow's radiation range in real time.

[0071] In some situations, individuals with sensitive constitutions (such as the elderly, pregnant women, and young children) are prone to headaches or colds when exposed to cold air directly; prolonged exposure to cold air while sitting at a desk may lead to stiff neck and shoulders or joint discomfort; direct exposure to cold air while sleeping may cause nasal congestion or muscle aches; direct exposure to cool air after sweating from exercise may cause a chill; direct exposure to hot air on the face may cause dry skin, dry eyes, or a burning sensation in the nasal cavity; sudden exposure to high-temperature airflow may cause dizziness in the elderly or those with high blood pressure; prolonged exposure to hot air at close range may exacerbate local moisture loss and even cause low-temperature burns; continuous exposure to high-temperature airflow while sleeping may lead to dehydration or awakening due to heat. The exhaust control method provided in this application controls the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet to avoid the target user, thereby reducing the risk of the target user being directly exposed to airflow in these situations and thus avoiding the risks associated with direct airflow.

[0072] Of course, it is understandable that although in some cases the target user needs to avoid direct airflow, the adjustable air outlet of the air handling unit still needs to maintain airflow to ensure effective air circulation, temperature regulation, or humidity regulation around the target user, thereby increasing the comfort of the environment in which the target user is located.

[0073] Optionally, in step 100, the current location information can be obtained directly from the monitoring results of the monitoring agency; alternatively, the coordinates of the target user can be obtained from the monitoring agency, and then the current location information can be obtained based on the coordinates of the target user and the coordinates of the air handling equipment.

[0074] Optionally, the air handling equipment can be an air purifier, an air humidifier, a dehumidifier, a fan, an air conditioner, or a device that has multiple air handling functions, etc., and there is no limitation here.

[0075] Optionally, in some embodiments, at least one adjustable air outlet includes a first adjustable air outlet. The first adjustable air outlet has a plurality of first preset air outlet directions.

[0076] Based on this, see Figure 2 In some implementations, step 200 includes:

[0077] Step 210: Based on the current location information, determine the first preset air outlet direction that is currently matched, and control the air outlet direction of the first adjustable air outlet to be the first preset air outlet direction that is currently matched, so that the location of the target user is outside the radiation range of the first adjustable air outlet.

[0078] Optionally, in some embodiments, among a plurality of first preset air outlet directions, the currently matched first preset air outlet direction has the smallest angle with the current location information. Therefore, the air outlet direction of the first adjustable air outlet changes by a small angle, which can avoid the target user and improve the adjustment efficiency of the first adjustable air outlet.

[0079] Optionally, in some implementations, the currently matched first preset air outlet direction and the air outlet direction before adjustment of the first adjustable air outlet are both located on the same side of the target user. Therefore, during the process of adjusting the air outlet direction of the first adjustable air outlet to the first preset direction, it will not pass through the location of the target user, thus avoiding the target user being blown by the airflow from the first adjustable air outlet during the change of the air outlet direction, and improving the target user's experience.

[0080] Understandably, in other embodiments, the currently matched first preset air outlet direction and the air outlet direction before adjustment of the first adjustable air outlet are located on different sides of the target user, which is not limited here.

[0081] Optionally, in some embodiments, at least one adjustable air outlet further includes a second adjustable air outlet. The second adjustable air outlet has multiple second preset air outlet directions.

[0082] Based on this, see Figure 3 In some implementations, step 200 further includes:

[0083] Step 220: Based on the current location information, determine the currently matched second preset air outlet direction, and control the air outlet direction of the second adjustable air outlet to be the currently matched second preset air outlet direction, so that the current location information is outside the radiation range of the second adjustable air outlet; wherein, the currently matched first preset air outlet direction and the second preset air outlet direction are located on opposite sides of the target user's location.

[0084] The first preset air outlet direction and the second preset air outlet direction are located on opposite sides of the target user's location. In other words, the radiation range of the first adjustable air outlet is located on one side of the target user, and the radiation range of the second adjustable air outlet is located on the other side of the target user, in order to improve the target user's experience.

[0085] Optionally, in some embodiments, among a plurality of second preset air outlet directions, the currently matched second preset air outlet direction has the smallest angle with the current position information. Therefore, the air outlet direction of the second adjustable air outlet changes by a small angle, which can avoid the target user and improve the adjustment efficiency of the second adjustable air outlet.

[0086] Optionally, in some embodiments, the currently matched second preset air outlet direction and the air outlet direction before adjustment of the second adjustable air outlet are both located on the same side of the target user. Therefore, during the process of adjusting the air outlet direction of the second adjustable air outlet to the second preset direction, it will not pass through the location of the target user, thus avoiding the target user being blown by the airflow from the second adjustable air outlet during the change of the air outlet direction, and improving the target user's experience.

[0087] Optionally, in one specific implementation, in the step of determining the currently matched first preset air outlet direction, the current location information is matched with the first preset air outlet direction one by one in a preset order: if the match is successful, then the preset air outlet direction is the currently matched first preset air outlet direction; if the match fails, the matching continues to the next first preset air outlet direction. It can be understood that this matching process is a process of determining whether the target user is outside the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet under the first preset air outlet direction; if so, the match is successful; if not, the match fails.

[0088] Optionally, in one specific implementation, in the step of determining the currently matched first preset air outlet direction, the current location information is matched with the first preset air outlet direction one by one in a preset order: if the match is successful, the corresponding first preset air outlet direction is selected as the currently matched first preset air outlet direction according to preset rules; if the match fails, the matching of the next first preset air outlet direction continues. It can be understood that this matching process is a process of determining whether the target user is within the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet under the first preset air outlet direction; if so, the match is successful; otherwise, the match fails.

[0089] Optionally, in one specific implementation, in the step of determining the currently matched second preset air outlet direction, the current location information is matched with the second preset air outlet direction one by one in a preset order: if the match is successful, then the preset air outlet direction is the currently matched second preset air outlet direction; if the match fails, the matching of the next second preset air outlet direction continues. It can be understood that this matching process is a process of determining whether the target user is outside the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet under the second preset air outlet direction; if so, the match is successful; if not, the match fails.

[0090] Optionally, in one specific implementation, in the step of determining the currently matched second preset air outlet direction, the current location information is matched with the second preset air outlet direction one by one in a preset order: if the match is successful, the corresponding second preset air outlet direction is selected as the currently matched second preset air outlet direction according to preset rules; if the match fails, the matching of the next second preset air outlet direction continues. It can be understood that this matching process is a process of determining whether the target user is within the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet under the second preset air outlet direction; if so, the match is successful; otherwise, the match fails.

[0091] Optionally, in one specific embodiment, at least one adjustable air outlet includes both a first adjustable air outlet and a second adjustable air outlet. Accordingly, the currently matched first preset air outlet direction and second preset air outlet direction are obtained sequentially.

[0092] Optionally, in some embodiments, at least one adjustable air outlet includes a third adjustable air outlet.

[0093] Based on this, see Figure 4 In some implementations, step 200 includes:

[0094] Step 230: Calculate the first angle between the current location information and the current air outlet direction of the third adjustable air outlet.

[0095] Step 240: Determine whether the first included angle is less than the first preset included angle. If so, control the air outlet direction of the third adjustable air outlet to rotate to the side away from the target user.

[0096] It is understandable that the execution of step 240 depends on the result of the execution of step 230. Therefore, step 240 is executed after step 230.

[0097] In addition, in step 240, the air outlet direction of the third adjustable air outlet is controlled to rotate to the side away from the target user, so that the target user is closer to the edge of the third adjustable air outlet, or is outside the radiation range of the third adjustable air outlet.

[0098] Understandably, even if the target user is still within the radiation range of the third adjustable air outlet after one of the steps 240 is executed, the direction of the third adjustable air outlet can be adjusted again by monitoring to eventually place the target user outside the radiation range of the third adjustable air outlet.

[0099] It is understandable that the size of the first preset angle is related to the radiation range of the third adjustable air outlet. When the first angle is equal to the first preset angle, the target user is located at the edge of the third adjustable air outlet, or outside the radiation range of the third adjustable air outlet but close to the radiation range of the third adjustable air outlet.

[0100] Optionally, in some embodiments, in the step of controlling the air outlet direction of the third adjustable air outlet to rotate to the side away from the target user, the angle of rotation of the air outlet direction of the third adjustable air outlet is a first preset angle, the difference between the first preset angle and the first angle, or a first preset rotation angle.

[0101] It is understandable that when the angle of rotation of the air outlet direction of the third adjustable air outlet is the first preset angle, or the difference between the first preset angle and the first angle, the target user can be located outside the radiation range of the third adjustable air outlet after step 240 is executed.

[0102] Optionally, in some embodiments, at least one adjustable air outlet further includes a fourth adjustable air outlet.

[0103] Based on this, see Figure 4 In some implementations, step 200 includes:

[0104] Step 250: Calculate the second angle between the current location information and the current air outlet direction of the fourth adjustable air outlet.

[0105] Step 260: Determine whether the second included angle is less than the second preset included angle. If so, control the air outlet direction of the fourth adjustable air outlet to rotate to the side away from the target user.

[0106] The second preset angle may be the same as or different from the first preset angle.

[0107] It is understandable that the execution of step 260 depends on the result of the execution of step 250. Therefore, step 260 is executed after step 250.

[0108] In addition, in step 240, the air outlet direction of the fourth adjustable air outlet is controlled to rotate to the side away from the target user, so that the target user is closer to the edge of the fourth adjustable air outlet, or is outside the radiation range of the fourth adjustable air outlet.

[0109] Understandably, even if the target user is still within the radiation range of the fourth adjustable air outlet after one of the steps 260 is executed, the direction of the fourth adjustable air outlet can be adjusted again to eventually place the target user outside the radiation range of the fourth adjustable air outlet.

[0110] Similarly, it is understandable that the setting of the second preset angle is related to the radiation range of the fourth adjustable air outlet. When the first angle is equal to the second preset angle, the target user is located at the edge of the fourth adjustable air outlet, or outside the radiation range of the fourth adjustable air outlet but close to it.

[0111] Optionally, in some embodiments, in the step of controlling the air outlet direction of the fourth adjustable air outlet to rotate to a side away from the current position information, the angle of rotation of the air outlet direction of the fourth adjustable air outlet is a second preset angle, the difference between the second preset angle and the second preset angle, or a second preset rotation angle. The second preset rotation angle may be the same as or different from the first preset rotation angle.

[0112] It is understandable that when the angle of rotation of the air outlet direction of the fourth adjustable air outlet is the second preset angle, or the difference between the second preset angle and the second angle, the target user can be located outside the radiation range of the fourth adjustable air outlet after step 260 is executed.

[0113] It is understood that in some implementations, the number of adjustable air vents is not limited to one or two, but may be more than one; this is not limited here.

[0114] In some cases, there are multiple target users.

[0115] Based on this, see Figure 6 The exhaust control method provided in some embodiments of this application includes:

[0116] Step 3100: Obtain current target information, which includes the current location information of at least two target users and the air handling equipment.

[0117] Step 3200: Based on the current target information, control the radiation range and / or airflow direction of at least one adjustable air outlet to avoid all target users.

[0118] It is understandable that in step 3200, controlling the radiation range and / or airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet to avoid all target users means controlling the radiation range and / or airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet so that the location of the target user is outside the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet, so as to avoid the airflow output by the adjustable air outlet blowing directly on the target user.

[0119] The above-mentioned ventilation control method can automatically control the air outlet direction based on the current location information of at least two target users to avoid all target users and meet the needs of multiple users to avoid the air outlet radiation range in real time.

[0120] Optionally, in step 3100, the current location information can be obtained directly from the monitoring results of the monitoring agency; alternatively, the coordinates of the target user can be obtained from the monitoring agency, and then the current location information can be obtained based on the coordinates of the target user and the coordinates of the air handling equipment.

[0121] Optionally, in some embodiments, there is one adjustable air outlet. The adjustable air outlet has multiple fourth preset air outlet modes. The radiation range and / or air outlet direction of different fourth preset air outlet modes are different.

[0122] Based on this, see Figure 7 In some implementations, step 3200 includes:

[0123] Step 3201: Based on the current target information, determine the currently matched fourth preset air outlet mode, and control the air outlet mode of the adjustable air outlet to the currently matched fourth preset air outlet mode, so that all target users are outside the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet.

[0124] Optionally, in some implementations, the method for determining the currently matched fourth preset air outlet mode based on the current target information is as follows: determine whether there exists a fourth preset air outlet mode located between two adjacent current location information that avoids all target users; if so, select one as the currently matched fourth preset air outlet mode. This can reduce the difference in user experience between two adjacent target users.

[0125] Optionally, in some embodiments, the number of adjustable air vents is one. The current target information includes first current location information between the first target user and the air handling unit, and second current location information between the second target user and the air handling unit.

[0126] Based on this, see Figure 8In some implementations, step 3200 includes:

[0127] Step 3202: Calculate the seventh angle between adjacent current position information.

[0128] Step 3203: Determine whether there is a seventh included angle greater than the fourth preset included angle. If so, control the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet to be located between a set of adjacent current position information.

[0129] Step 3204: Determine whether the two adjacent current position information are within the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet. If so, control the side of the corresponding side of the adjustable air outlet to retract to between the two adjacent current position information.

[0130] It is understandable that the execution of step 3203 depends on the execution result of step 3202; the execution of step 3204 depends on the execution result of step 3203. Therefore, in this embodiment, steps 3202, 3203, and 3204 are executed sequentially.

[0131] Understandably, the purpose of steps 3202 and 3203 is to confirm whether the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet can be adjusted to be between adjacent current location information, and to avoid the corresponding two target users being within the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet. If the confirmation result is yes, the airflow direction and / or airflow range of the adjustable air outlet are controlled.

[0132] Optionally, in some implementations, the number of adjustable air vents is one.

[0133] Based on this, see Figure 9 In some implementations, step 3200 includes:

[0134] Step 3205: Calculate the seventh angle between adjacent current position information.

[0135] Step 3206: Determine whether there exists a seventh included angle greater than the fourth preset included angle.

[0136] Step 3207: If yes, determine whether the included angle of the current radiation range of the adjustable air outlet is greater than the seventh included angle.

[0137] Step 3208: If so, reduce the included angle of the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet to less than or equal to the seventh included angle.

[0138] Step 3209: Control the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet to be located between the adjacent current position information.

[0139] It is understandable that, unlike the implementation methods provided in steps 3202 to 3204, the implementation methods provided in steps 3205 to 3209 first adjust the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet, and then adjust the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet to reduce the risk that at least some target users will be directly blown by the airflow of the adjustable air outlet because the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet was large before adjustment.

[0140] Optionally, in some implementations, the number of adjustable air vents is one.

[0141] Based on this, see Figure 10 In some implementations, step 3200 includes:

[0142] Step 3210: Determine whether there are current position information within the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet and current position information outside the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet at the same time; if so, determine whether the current position information outside the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet is located on the same side of the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet; if so, control the adjustable air outlet to rotate to the other side.

[0143] In step 3210, the rotation direction of the adjustable air outlet serves two purposes: firstly, the airflow from the adjustable air outlet blows directly onto the target user for a shorter period of time, improving the target user's comfort; secondly, a small rotation angle of the adjustable air outlet allows its radiation range to avoid all target users, improving the adjustment efficiency of the air outlet's airflow direction.

[0144] Optionally, in some embodiments, at least one adjustable air outlet includes a first adjustable air outlet and a second adjustable air outlet. The first adjustable air outlet has multiple fifth preset air outlet modes. The air outlet direction and / or air outlet angle of different fifth preset air outlet modes are different. The second adjustable air outlet has multiple sixth preset air outlet modes. The air outlet direction and / or air outlet angle of different sixth preset air outlet modes are different.

[0145] Based on this, see Figure 11 In some implementations, step 3200 includes:

[0146] Step 3211: Based on the current target information, determine the currently matched fifth preset air outlet mode and the currently matched sixth preset air outlet mode.

[0147] Step 3212: Control the air outlet mode of the first adjustable air outlet to the currently matched fifth preset air outlet mode so that the target users are all outside the radiation range of the first adjustable air outlet; control the air outlet mode of the second adjustable air outlet to the currently matched sixth preset air outlet mode so that the target users are all outside the second radiation range.

[0148] It is understandable that the execution of step 3212 depends on the result of the execution of step 3211. Therefore, step 3212 is executed after step 3211.

[0149] Optionally, see Figure 12 In some implementations, step 3211 includes:

[0150] Step 3213: Based on the current target information, determine whether there is a fifth preset air outlet mode whose radiation range is located between two adjacent current location information. If so, select one as the currently matched fifth preset air outlet mode.

[0151] It is understandable that the fifth preset air outlet mode, whose radiation range is located between two adjacent current location information, allows the two corresponding adjacent target users to be located on both sides of the radiation range of the first adjustable air outlet, thereby improving the consistency of the comfort brought by the air outlet of the first adjustable air outlet for the two corresponding adjacent target users to enjoy at the same time.

[0152] Step 3214: Based on the current target information, determine whether there is a sixth preset air outlet mode whose radiation range is located between two adjacent current location information. If so, select one as the currently matched sixth preset air outlet mode.

[0153] It is understandable that the sixth preset air outlet mode, whose radiation range is located between two adjacent current location information, allows the two corresponding adjacent target users to be located on both sides of the radiation range of the second adjustable air outlet, thereby improving the consistency of the comfort brought by the air outlet of the second adjustable air outlet for the two corresponding adjacent target users to enjoy at the same time.

[0154] It is understandable that the execution of steps 3213 and 3214 is independent of each other. Therefore, step 3213 can be executed after step 3214, before step 3214, or simultaneously with step 3214; no limitation is made here.

[0155] Furthermore, in some embodiments, in step 3213, when there are multiple fifth preset air outlet modes between two adjacent current location information, the fifth preset air outlet mode with the closer angle between the air outlet directions before the first adjustable air outlet is adjusted is selected as the currently matched fifth preset air outlet mode, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency of the first adjustable air outlet.

[0156] Furthermore, in some embodiments, in step 3213, when there are multiple sixth preset air outlet modes between two adjacent current location information, the sixth preset air outlet mode with the closer angle between the air outlet directions before the second adjustable air outlet is adjusted is selected as the currently matched sixth preset air outlet mode, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency of the second adjustable air outlet.

[0157] Optionally, in some embodiments, the current target information includes first current location information between the first target user and the air handling unit, and second current location information between the second target user and the air handling unit. Among the fifth preset air outlet modes that avoid all target users, the matched fifth preset air outlet mode has the smallest angle with the first current location information. This allows the first target user to better experience the comfort of the airflow from the first adjustable air outlet while avoiding its radiation range.

[0158] Optionally, in some embodiments, the current target information includes first current location information between the first target user and the air handling unit, and second current location information between the second target user and the air handling unit. Among the sixth preset air outlet modes that avoid all target users, the matching sixth preset air outlet mode has the smallest angle with the second current location information. This allows the second target user to better experience the comfort of the airflow from the second adjustable air outlet while avoiding its radiation range.

[0159] Optionally, in some implementations, step 3200 involves setting any target user at a side distance from the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet to improve the user's experience.

[0160] See Figure 13a In some implementations, the exhaust control method further includes:

[0161] Step 300a: In response to the start air outlet command, the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet is set to the preset initial air outlet direction.

[0162] The settings in step 300a ensure that the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet is the same each time airflow begins. As a result, when airflow begins, the user can quickly determine the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet and adjust their position as needed to avoid the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet in advance.

[0163] See Figure 13b In some implementations, the exhaust control method further includes:

[0164] Step 300b: In response to the start air outlet command, the air outlet mode of the adjustable air outlet is the preset initial air outlet mode; the preset initial air outlet mode includes a preset radiation range and / or a preset air outlet direction.

[0165] The settings in step 300b ensure that the air outlet mode is the same each time air is started. This allows users to quickly determine the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet when air starts flowing, and then adjust their position as needed to avoid the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet in advance.

[0166] See Figure 14a In some implementations, the exhaust control method further includes:

[0167] Step 400a: In response to the command to stop airflow, record the current airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet.

[0168] Step 500a: In response to the start air outlet command, control the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet to the recorded air outlet direction.

[0169] In other words, in step 500a, in response to the command to start airflow, the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet is the same as the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet before the last stop, which better meets the target user's habitual needs for airflow direction. When the target user's need for airflow direction remains unchanged, or the need for airflow direction changes only slightly, the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet can remain unchanged or only be adjusted by a small angle, so as to adjust to the airflow direction that avoids the target user more quickly.

[0170] See Figure 14b In some implementations, the exhaust control method further includes:

[0171] Step 400b: In response to the command to stop airflow, record the current airflow mode of the adjustable air outlet; the current airflow mode includes the radiation range and / or airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet.

[0172] Step 500b: Respond again to the start airflow command and control the airflow mode of the adjustable air outlet to the recorded airflow mode.

[0173] In other words, in step 500b, in response to the command to start airflow, the airflow mode of the adjustable air vent is the same as the airflow mode of the adjustable air vent before the last stop, which better suits the target user's habitual needs for airflow mode. When the target user's needs for airflow mode remain unchanged, or the changes in needs are minor, the airflow mode of the adjustable air vent can remain unchanged or be adjusted only slightly to quickly adjust to an airflow mode that avoids the target user's needs.

[0174] See Figure 15 In some implementations, the exhaust control method further includes:

[0175] Step 600: When the current location information cannot be obtained, the air outlet direction can be kept unchanged.

[0176] The inability to obtain current location information may be due to the user's location moving beyond the preset monitoring range of the air handling unit, a malfunction in the monitoring equipment of the air handling unit, or a problem with the control method, etc., which are not limited here.

[0177] If the current location information cannot be obtained because the user has left the preset monitoring range of the air handling equipment, the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet will remain unchanged when the target user returns to the preset monitoring range of the air handling equipment from the same or similar location, which can quickly meet the target user's needs for the air outlet direction.

[0178] If the current location information cannot be obtained, it is because the monitoring equipment of the air handling unit is malfunctioning or there is a problem with the control method. Keeping the air outlet direction unchanged can avoid the risk of sudden interruption of airflow from the adjustable air outlet and improve the experience of the target user.

[0179] See Figure 16 In some implementations, the exhaust control method further includes:

[0180] Step 700: When the current location information cannot be obtained, start timing.

[0181] Step 800: When the current location information cannot be obtained for the first preset time period, the air outlet can be adjusted to stop airflow.

[0182] The reason why the current location information cannot be obtained in step 700 is as described above and will not be limited here.

[0183] Step 700: When the current location information cannot be obtained initially, the adjustable air vent continues to supply air, reducing the inconvenience caused to the target user by a sudden stop in air supply and allowing the target user time to take countermeasures. Step 800: When the current location information cannot be obtained for a continuous first preset time period, the adjustable air vent stops supplying air, reducing the risk of excessively aggravating equipment failure due to prolonged continuous air supply from the adjustable air vent.

[0184] In some embodiments, the adjustable air outlet has a first guide inner wall and a second guide inner wall that are disposed opposite to each other.

[0185] Based on this, in some implementations, the methods for controlling the change of air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet include:

[0186] Control the rotation of the inner wall of the first guide.

[0187] And / or, control the rotation of the inner wall of the second guide.

[0188] In other words, the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet is changed by rotating at least one of the first and second guide inner walls. It is understood that when either the first or second guide inner wall rotates, the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet changes, and correspondingly, the center position of the adjustable air outlet also changes, thus changing the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet.

[0189] It should be noted that, in this application, the first guide inner wall and the second guide inner wall refer to the two opposing inner walls inside the adjustable air vent, that is, the inner surfaces of the corresponding side walls of the adjustable air vent.

[0190] In some implementations, when the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet changes, the angle between the first guide inner wall and the second guide inner wall changes, so that the direction adjustment of the adjustable air outlet is more flexible.

[0191] In some implementations, when the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet changes, the angle between the first guide inner wall and the second guide inner wall remains unchanged, so that the radiation range of the adjustable air outlet remains unchanged or changes only slightly, which facilitates improving the stability of the air outlet intensity of the adjustable air outlet.

[0192] See Figure 17 In one specific embodiment of the air handling equipment, the adjustable air outlet 03 has a first guide inner wall 01 and a second guide inner wall 02 disposed opposite to each other. Both the first guide inner wall 01 and the second guide inner wall 02 are rotatable. Figure 17 The dashed lines represent one state of the corresponding first guide inner wall 01 and second guide inner wall 02 after rotation. According to... Figure 17 It can be seen that after the first guide inner wall 01 and the second guide inner wall 02 are rotated, the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet 03 is changed.

[0193] Of course, it is understandable that, as needed, the rotation angle of the first guide inner wall 01 and / or the second guide inner wall 02 can be controlled to change the air outlet direction of the adjustable air outlet 03.

[0194] Figure 17 In the illustrated embodiment, there are two adjustable air vents 03. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of adjustable air vents is not limited to two, but may be one or more. Furthermore, in other embodiments, adjacent adjustable air vents may share a common guide inner wall.

[0196] At least one adjustable air outlet 910.

[0198] The control module 930 is configured to control the airflow direction of the adjustable air outlet 910 based on the current location information, so as to avoid the target user.
