For details, please refer to the following text.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the apparatus further includes a refrigerant circulation system comprising a compressor 10, a condenser 11, a heat exchanger 12, a three-way valve 13, a first electronic expansion valve 14, a second electronic expansion valve 15, and a shut-off valve 16; the second end of the evaporator 3 is connected to the first end of the three-way valve 13; the second end of the three-way valve 13 is connected to the first end of the compressor 10; the second end of the compressor 10 is connected to the first end of the condenser 11, and the second end of the condenser 11 is connected to the first end of the evaporator 3 via the first electronic expansion valve 14; the third end of the three-way valve 13 is connected to the first end of the heat exchanger 12 via the second electronic expansion valve 15, and the second end of the heat exchanger 12 is connected to the first end of the compressor 10; the first end of the shut-off valve 16 is connected to the first end of the second electronic expansion valve 15, and the second end of the shut-off valve 16 is connected to the first end of the first electronic expansion valve 14.

[0012] In this embodiment of the application, the air conditioning equipment may include a refrigerant circulation system. By changing the flow mode of the refrigerant in the refrigerant circulation system, the air conditioning equipment can achieve functions such as deodorization, cooling, heating or dehumidification. For details, please refer to the following text.

[0013] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide an air conditioning equipment control method, which is applied to an air conditioning equipment as described in any one of claims 1-4. The method includes: determining the operating state of the air conditioning equipment; the operating state is used to indicate one or more of the following states of the air conditioning equipment: a working mode in a power-off state or a power-on state; when the operating state of the air conditioning equipment switches from a first operating state to a second operating state, and the deodorizing damper 4 is in a first position, controlling the deodorizing damper 4 to switch to the second position, and in the first operating state and / or the second operating state, fresh air reaches the vehicle interior through the evaporator 3.

[0014] In this embodiment, an odor-removing damper 4 is added to the air conditioning equipment. The odor-removing damper can be opened during startup, shutdown, and operation to remove odors. In the first and / or second operating states, fresh air reaches the vehicle interior through the evaporator 3. When the fresh air passes through the evaporator 3, it may carry a lot of odors. At this time, removing odors from the air conditioning equipment can simply and efficiently remove odors from the air conditioning equipment, reduce the amount of odors entering the vehicle or indoors, and improve the user experience.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: determining the odor concentration of the air conditioning unit, wherein the odor concentration is determined by an odor detection module; and controlling the deodorizing damper 4 to switch to a second position when the odor concentration is greater than a first threshold.

[0016] Thus, when the odor concentration is high, the deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the second position; when the odor concentration is low, the deodorizing damper 4 is not switched, reducing the switching frequency of the deodorizing damper 4 and lowering the power consumption of the air conditioning equipment.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: controlling the deodorizing damper 4 to switch to the first position when the odor concentration is less than a second threshold and / or the duration of the deodorizing damper 4 switching to the second position is greater than a first duration.

[0018] Thus, when the odor concentration is low or the odor removal time is long, the deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the first position to stop the odor removal process of the air conditioning equipment, so that the air conditioning equipment can operate normally in the second operating state, reducing the time users have to wait for the air conditioning equipment to support operation and improving the user experience.

[0019] In one possible implementation, the operating mode of the air conditioning equipment when it is turned on includes one or more of the following: cooling mode, heating mode, ventilation mode, or dehumidification mode.

[0020] In one possible implementation, when the second operating state is the cooling mode or dehumidification mode in the power-on state and the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the method further includes: controlling the operating wind speed of the blower 9 to be less than the first wind speed threshold, turning on the deodorization module, positioning the first temperature damper 6-1 in the third position, and positioning the second temperature damper 6-2 in the fifth position.

[0021] Thus, the operating speed of blower 9 is less than the first wind speed threshold, which can prevent excessive changes in odor concentration and maintain a stable odor concentration in the air so that the odor detection module can detect the odor concentration. When the odor concentration is high, the deodorization module is activated, and fresh air carrying the odor through evaporator 3 is exhausted outside the vehicle through deodorization damper 4 and deodorization duct 5, thereby removing the odor from the air conditioning equipment.

[0022] In one possible implementation, when the second operating state is the cooling or dehumidification mode under the power-on state, the odor concentration is less than the second threshold and / or the duration of the deodorization damper 4 switching to the second position is greater than the first duration, the method further includes: controlling the deodorization module to shut down, the second temperature damper 6-2 switching to the sixth position, the operating wind speed of the blower 9 being greater than the second wind speed threshold, and the refrigerant circulation system entering the cooling or dehumidification mode; the second wind speed threshold is greater than or equal to the first wind speed threshold.

[0023] Thus, when the odor concentration is low or the odor removal time is long, the deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the first position, and the second temperature damper 6-2 is switched to the sixth position. Fresh air releases heat through the evaporator 3, and the operating speed of the blower 9 is greater than the second wind speed threshold, so that the air volume of the blower 9 is restored, so that the air conditioning equipment can enter the cooling mode or dehumidification mode.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: indicating a prompt message to the user, the prompt message being used to inform the user that the air conditioning device is in deodorization mode and the cooling or dehumidification effect is reduced.

[0025] This allows users to perceive the odor removal process of the air conditioning unit, improving the user experience.

[0026] In one possible implementation, when the second operating state is the ventilation mode in the on state and the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the method further includes: controlling the operating wind speed of the blower 9 to be greater than the third wind speed threshold, turning on the deodorization module, positioning the first temperature damper 6-1 in the third position, and positioning the second temperature damper 6-2 in the fifth position; the third wind speed threshold is greater than or equal to the second wind speed threshold.

[0027] Thus, when the air conditioning unit is switched to ventilation mode and the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, odor removal is performed. The operating speed of blower 9 is greater than the third wind speed threshold, increasing the air volume of blower 9 to quickly expel odors and improve the odor removal efficiency of the air conditioning unit.

[0028] In one possible implementation, when the second operating state is the ventilation mode in the on state, the odor concentration is less than the second threshold and / or the duration of the odor removal damper 4 switching to the second position is greater than the first duration, the method further includes: controlling the odor removal module to shut down, the operating wind speed of the blower 9 being greater than the second wind speed threshold, and shutting down the refrigerant circulation system.

[0029] Thus, when the odor concentration is low, or when the odor removal time is long, the deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the first position, the operating speed of the blower 9 is greater than the second wind speed threshold, the air volume of the blower 9 is restored, the refrigerant circulation system is shut down, so that the air conditioning equipment enters the ventilation mode. This achieves odor removal when the air conditioning equipment switches to ventilation mode.

[0030] In one possible implementation, when the first operating state is a cooling mode under the power-on state, the second operating state is a heating mode under the power-on state, and the odor concentration is greater than a first threshold, the method further includes: controlling the operating wind speed of the blower 9 to be greater than a third wind speed threshold, the first temperature damper 6-1 being located in the third position, and the second temperature damper 6-2 being located in the fifth position; controlling the first end and the third end of the three-way valve 13 to be connected, until the valve 16 is closed, the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 14 is greater than a first opening degree threshold, and the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 15 is greater than a second opening degree threshold.

[0031] Thus, when the air conditioning unit switches from cooling mode to heating mode, the air conditioning unit can detect the odor concentration. If the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the deodorization module is activated, the deodorization damper 4 is switched to the second position, and the circulation mode of the refrigerant circulation system is controlled, so that the evaporator 3 dissipates heat. The high temperature further eliminates the residual moisture on the surface of the evaporator 3, thereby achieving deodorization of the air conditioning unit.

[0032] In one possible implementation, when the first operating state is a cooling mode under the power-on state, and the second operating state is a heating mode under the power-on state, and the odor concentration is less than a second threshold and / or the duration of the deodorizing damper 4 switching to the second position is greater than the first duration, the method further includes: controlling the operating speed of the blower 9 to be greater than the second wind speed threshold, switching the first temperature damper 6-1 to the fourth position, controlling the first and third ends of the three-way valve 13 to be closed, the first and second ends of the three-way valve 13 to be connected, the shut-off valve 16 to be connected, the first electronic expansion valve 14 to be closed, the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 15 to be greater than the second opening threshold, and the refrigerant circulation system to enter the heating mode.

[0033] Thus, when the odor concentration is low or the odor removal time is long, the air circulation system and refrigerant circulation system in the air conditioning equipment are controlled to enter the heating mode, thereby achieving odor removal when the air conditioning equipment switches from the cooling mode to the heating mode.

[0034] In one possible implementation, when the second operating state is the shutdown state, the method further includes: shutting down the refrigerant circulation system, controlling the operating speed of the blower 9 to be greater than the fourth wind speed threshold, turning on the deodorization module, positioning the first temperature damper 6-1 in the third position, and positioning the second temperature damper 6-2 in the fifth position.

[0035] In some examples, the fourth wind speed threshold can be a value preset by the developer; however, this application embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0036] In this way, when the air conditioning unit is turned off, the air conditioning unit can evaporate the moisture on the surface of the evaporator 3 through the blower 9, and the odor is discharged to the outside through the deodorizing damper 4 and the deodorizing duct 5.

[0037] In one possible implementation, when the second operating state is the off state and the duration for which the deodorizing damper 4 switches to the second position is longer than the first duration, the method further includes: controlling the deodorizing module to shut down and the blower 9 to shut down.

[0038] In this way, the air conditioning unit removes odors when it is turned off, ensuring its cleanliness before the next time it is turned on.

[0039] In one possible implementation, the preset area is the vehicle's external area or an outdoor area.

[0040] This can reduce odors in the vehicle's interior and surrounding areas, improving the user experience.

Any embodiment or design that is described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of this application should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or design. Specifically, the use of the terms "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0063] In the embodiments of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0064] In this application, the term "at least one" means one or more, and the term "multiple" means two or more. For example, multiple second messages refer to two or more second messages. The terms "system" and "network" are often used interchangeably in this document.

[0065] It should be understood that the terminology used in the description of the various examples described herein is for the purpose of describing the specific examples only and is not intended to be limiting.

[0066] It should also be understood that the term "and / or" as used herein refers to and covers any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. The term "and / or" describes an association between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist; for example, A and / or B can represent: A alone, A and B simultaneously, or B alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this application generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0067] It should also be understood that, in the various embodiments of this application, the sequence number of each process does not imply the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of this application.

[0068] It should be understood that the phrases "an embodiment," "an embodiment," and "a possible implementation" used throughout the specification mean that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic related to an embodiment or implementation is included in at least one embodiment of this application. Therefore, the phrases "in an embodiment," "an embodiment," or "a possible implementation" appearing throughout the specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, these specific features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0069] Air conditioning systems are prone to accumulating bacteria and mold, especially the evaporator, which is in a humid environment for a long time and is prone to the growth of bacteria and mold. These bacteria and mold can be blown out directly with the air conditioner, polluting the air, causing odors, and harming the human respiratory tract, thus affecting human health.

[0070] For example, the evaporator in a car's air conditioning system has a dense, grid-like structure that easily absorbs and accumulates various odor molecules. When the car's air conditioning system starts cooling (for example, within the first ten seconds after startup), the compressor starts, and the air conditioning begins to cool. The surface temperature of the evaporator quickly drops below the air dew point, producing condensation. During this stage, hydrophobic odor molecules, unable to dissolve in water, are blown into the car with the cold air from the air conditioner, resulting in an unpleasant odor, primarily a sour or rancid smell.

[0071] For example, when the car's air conditioner stops cooling (such as within ten seconds after the air conditioner is turned off), the compressor shuts off, the air conditioner stops cooling, the evaporator temperature rises rapidly, and the residual moisture on the surface of the fins between the evaporator and the condenser evaporates quickly. The hydrophilic odor molecules in the evaporator escape in large quantities with the water vapor, resulting in an odor that is mainly musty.

[0072] In related technologies, odor generation can be reduced through sterilization procedures before the air conditioner is turned on and antibacterial procedures when it is turned off. Alternatively, complex odor-removing units can be installed within the air conditioning duct, and their operation can be controlled based on the odor concentration to remove odors from the air. Another approach is to control relevant air conditioning solenoid valves and fans based on indoor odor levels detected by an indoor odor detector to eliminate indoor odors. Finally, adjusting the refrigeration system and circuit routing, adding valves, and using the evaporator as a condenser for heating, while controlling the heating temperature within the 65-120℃ range, can achieve sterilization and disinfection under high temperature conditions, thereby removing odors.

[0073] However, some of the aforementioned methods only address odors when the air conditioner is off, failing to remove them in real-time while it's running. Furthermore, odors may reappear during operation, especially when switching operating modes, as they can be blown out directly with the airflow. Secondly, adding odor removal units to some technologies increases the complexity and cost of the automotive air conditioning system. Finally, some technologies are ineffective at removing odors when the air conditioner is used again after a long period of inactivity.

[0074] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides an air conditioning device that includes a deodorizing damper and a deodorizing duct connecting to the outside of the vehicle or outdoors. When the air conditioning device switches operating states and the odor concentration exceeds a preset threshold, the deodorizing damper is opened to expel the odor to a preset area, thus eliminating the odor. The operating states of the air conditioning device include different working modes, including a powered-off state and a powered-on state. The preset area can be the external area of ​​the vehicle (outside the vehicle) or an outdoor area.

[0075] In this way, by adding odor-removing dampers and ducts to the air conditioning equipment, the odor-removing dampers can be opened during startup, shutdown, and operation to remove odors. This can easily and efficiently remove odors from the air conditioning equipment, reduce the amount of odors entering the vehicle or indoors, and improve the user experience.

[0076] The embodiments of this application can be applied to air conditioning equipment (also known as vehicle air conditioning) in vehicles. The embodiments shown in this application can be executed by the air conditioning equipment control device in the vehicle, or by the vehicle controller in the vehicle, or by a chip, chip system, or processor that supports the vehicle air conditioning control method, or by a logic module or software that can implement all or part of the vehicle air conditioning functions. This application does not make any specific limitations in this regard.

[0077] In some examples, embodiments of this application can also be applied to other air conditioning equipment, such as smart home air conditioners or industrial air conditioners, where the deodorizing damper and deodorizing duct can be connected to the outside. Embodiments of this application do not impose specific limitations in this regard.

[0078] This application uses an in-vehicle air conditioner as an example for illustration.

[0079] like Figure 1 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of an air circulation system provided in an embodiment of this application. The air circulation system is installed in a vehicle air conditioner.

[0080] The air circulation system includes a main air duct 1, an air conditioning duct 2, an evaporator 3, an odor removal damper 4, an odor removal duct 5, and a temperature damper 6.

[0081] Among them, the main air duct 1 and the air conditioning air duct 2 are connected, and the main air duct 1 is as follows: Figure 1 The left half of the air duct shown is the air conditioning duct 2. Figure 1 The dashed box indicates the portion of the air duct. Fresh air can be delivered to the air conditioning duct 2 through the main air duct 4, and then blown into the vehicle interior through the air outlet of the air conditioning duct 2.

[0082] In some examples, the air conditioning duct 2 may include multiple air outlets, such as foot vents, center console vents, or defrost vents, etc. This application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0083] Evaporator 3 is installed in main air duct 1. The first end of temperature damper 6 can be connected to the first end of evaporator 3, and the second end of evaporator 3 can be connected to main air duct 1.

[0084] Optionally, the odor-removing air duct 5 can be a cylindrical air duct, and correspondingly, the odor-removing damper 4 can be circular. Alternatively, the odor-removing air duct 5 can be a cuboid air duct, and correspondingly, the odor-removing damper 4 can be square. This application embodiment does not impose specific limitations in this regard.

[0085] When the deodorizing damper 4 is in the second position, the second end of the temperature damper 6 is connected to the first end of the deodorizing damper 4, and the second end of the deodorizing damper 4 is connected to the main air duct 1. Thus, the temperature damper 6 divides the main air duct 1 into a section that passes through the evaporator 3 and a section that does not pass through the evaporator 3. Specifically, the section of air duct below the temperature damper 6 passes through the evaporator 3; the section of air duct above the temperature damper 6 does not pass through the evaporator 3.

[0086] The odor-removing duct 5 connects to the outside of the vehicle, allowing odors to be expelled from the vehicle. The odor-removing damper 4 is located between the main air duct 1 and the odor-removing duct 5.

[0087] The deodorizing damper 4 can be electrically connected to a power source in the vehicle. The vehicle's air conditioning control unit can send control commands to the power source to the deodorizing damper 4 as needed. These control commands instruct the voltage applied to the motor in the deodorizing damper 4 to control its rotation angle. By controlling the rotation angle of the deodorizing damper 4, it can switch between a first position and a second position.

[0088] For example, when the deodorizing damper 4 is in the first position, it can be rotated clockwise towards the second position using the connection point between the deodorizing damper 4 and the main air duct 1 as the rotation point, until the deodorizing damper 4 reaches the second position. When the deodorizing damper 4 is in the second position, it can be rotated counterclockwise towards the first position using the connection point between the deodorizing damper 4 and the main air duct 1 as the rotation point, until the deodorizing damper 4 reaches the first position.

[0089] With the deodorizing damper 4 in the second position, the main air duct 1 and the deodorizing air duct 5 are connected. The deodorizing air duct 5 is connected to the outside of the vehicle, allowing air passing through the evaporator 3 to be delivered to the outside of the vehicle, thereby removing the odors carried in the evaporator 3 from the vehicle. After the odor is removed, the deodorizing damper 4 can be switched to the first position, blocking the main air duct 1 and the deodorizing air duct 5. Fresh air then reaches the interior of the vehicle through the main air duct 1 and the air conditioning duct 2.

[0090] The above Figure 1 This section introduces the structure of the air circulation system in a vehicle's air conditioning system, with some examples, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the air circulation system in the vehicle air conditioner may also include an odor removal device 7. Odors can be removed from the vehicle air conditioner using the odor removal device 7.

[0091] The odor removal device 7 is installed in the main air duct 1 and is adjacent to the evaporator 3. The odor removal device 7 being adjacent to the evaporator 3 can also be understood as the distance between the odor removal device 7 and the evaporator 3 being less than a certain threshold, or the odor removal device 7 being connected to the evaporator 3, or the odor removal device 7 being in contact with the evaporator 3, etc.

[0092] In some examples, the odor removal device 7 includes an odor detection module and an odor removal module.

[0093] The odor detection module can be used to detect the concentration of odors around the evaporator 3. The odor detection module can be a gas sensor, such as a micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) gas sensor, or an infrared gas sensor.

[0094] The deodorization module may include a disinfection sprayer and / or a negative ion generator. When the deodorization module is turned on, the disinfection sprayer and / or negative ion generator are also turned on, which can disinfect the evaporator 3.

[0095] In some examples, the disinfectant in the disinfectant sprayer can be alcohol disinfectant spray, chlorine-containing disinfectant spray, hydrogen peroxide disinfectant spray, or phenol disinfectant spray, etc. The disinfectant sprayer uses spray technology to atomize the disinfectant into tiny particles, which are then evenly distributed in the air to achieve the purpose of disinfecting the vehicle's air conditioning.

[0096] A negative ion generator is a device that generates negative air ions. By emitting negative ions and allowing them to combine with bacteria, particles, and dust in the air, it achieves the effects of sterilization and cleaning.

[0097] Compared with the odor removal unit in related technologies, the odor removal device 7 is simpler. When the odor detection module detects that the odor concentration around the evaporator 3 is greater than a certain threshold, it can activate the odor removal module to perform disinfection, sterilization and other operations. Subsequently, it controls the odor removal damper 4 to switch to the second position, so that the odor is discharged outside the vehicle through the odor removal damper 4 and the odor removal duct 5.

[0098] like Figure 3 As shown, the air circulation system in the vehicle air conditioner may also include a heater core 8 and a blower 9. The heater core 8 and the blower 9 are installed in the main air duct 1;

[0099] The heating core 8 is used to generate heat, which raises the temperature of the air flowing through it, thus completing the heating function of the air conditioner.

[0100] The blower 9 can also be electrically connected to the aforementioned power source, which can control the blower 9 to power on. Specifically, the vehicle air conditioning control device can send control commands to the aforementioned power source for the blower 9 according to the actual situation. These control commands are used to indicate the output power of the power source to the blower 9, and the blower 9 will have different wind speeds depending on the output power.

[0101] In some examples, the temperature damper 6 may include a first temperature damper 6-1 and a second temperature damper 6-2. The first temperature damper 6-1 and the second temperature damper 6-2 are disposed in the main air duct 1.

[0102] The first end of the first temperature damper 6-1 can be connected to the first end of the evaporator 3, and the second end of the first temperature damper 6-1 is in contact with the first end of the heater core 8. The second end of the heater core 8 is connected to the upper part of the main air duct 1. The first temperature damper 6-1 can be electrically connected to the aforementioned power supply. The vehicle air conditioning control device can send control commands to the power supply for the first temperature damper 6-1 as needed. These control commands are used to indicate the voltage applied to the motor in the first temperature damper 6-1, thereby controlling the rotation angle of the first temperature damper 6-1. By controlling the rotation angle of the first temperature damper 6-1, the first temperature damper 6-1 can be switched between a third position and a fourth position.

[0103] For example, when the first temperature damper 6-1 is in the third position, the connection point between the first temperature damper 6-1 and the evaporator 3 can be used as the rotation point to control the first temperature damper 6-1 to rotate clockwise towards the fourth position until the first temperature damper 6-1 rotates to the fourth position. When the first temperature damper 6-1 is in the fourth position, the connection point between the first temperature damper 6-1 and the evaporator 3 can be used as the rotation point to control the first temperature damper 6-1 to rotate counterclockwise towards the third position until the first temperature damper 6-1 rotates to the third position.

[0104] When the first temperature damper 6-1 is in the third position, the first temperature damper 6-1 connects the part of the air duct 1 that passes through the evaporator 4 to the air conditioning air duct 2; when the first temperature damper 6-1 is in the fourth position, the first temperature damper 6-1 blocks the part of the air duct 1 that passes through the evaporator 4 from the air conditioning air duct 2.

[0105] The second end of the first temperature damper 6-1 is connected to the first end of the second temperature damper 6-2, the second end of the second temperature damper 6-2 is connected to the first end of the warm air core 8, and the second end of the warm air core 8 is connected to the main air duct 1.

[0106] The first end of the second temperature damper 6-2 is in contact with the second end of the evaporator 3, and the second end of the second temperature damper 6-2 is connected to the first end of the heater core 8. The second end of the heater core 8 is connected to the main air duct 1. The second temperature damper 6-2 can be electrically connected to the aforementioned power supply. The vehicle air conditioning control device can send control commands to the power supply to the second temperature damper 6-2 as needed. These control commands indicate the voltage applied to the motor in the second temperature damper 6-2 to control the rotation angle of the second temperature damper 6-2. By controlling the rotation angle of the second temperature damper 6-2, it can be switched between the fifth and sixth positions.

[0107] For example, when the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the fifth position, it can be rotated clockwise towards the sixth position using the connection point between the second temperature damper 6-2 and the heater core 8 as the rotation point, until the second temperature damper 6-2 reaches the sixth position. When the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the sixth position, it can be rotated counterclockwise towards the fifth position using the connection point between the second temperature damper 6-2 and the heater core 8 as the rotation point, until the second temperature damper 6-2 reaches the fifth position.

[0108] When the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the fifth position, the second temperature damper 6-2 connects the part of the air duct in the main air duct 1 that passes through the warm air core 8 with the air conditioning air duct 2; when the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the sixth position, the second temperature damper 6-2 blocks the part of the air duct in the main air duct 1 that passes through the warm air core 8 from the air conditioning air duct 2.

[0109] That is, when the first temperature damper 6-1 is in the third position and / or the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the fifth position, the first temperature damper 6-1 and / or the second temperature damper 6-2 divide the main air duct 1 into a part of the air duct that passes through the evaporator 3 and a part of the air duct that does not pass through the evaporator 3 (which can also be understood as a part of the air duct that passes through the warm air core 8).

[0110] In some examples, the air circulation system in the vehicle air conditioning system may also include a circulation damper 0, located at the inlet of the main air duct 1. The circulation damper 0 can be electrically connected to the aforementioned power source. The vehicle air conditioning control device can send control commands to the power source to the circulation damper 0 as needed. These control commands indicate the voltage applied to the motor in the circulation damper 0, thereby controlling the rotation angle of the circulation damper 0. By controlling the rotation angle of the circulation damper 0, it can switch between a seventh position and an eighth position. When the circulation damper 0 is in the seventh position, fresh air can enter the main air duct 1. When the circulation damper 0 is in the eighth position, fresh air cannot enter the main air duct 1.

[0111] For example, when the circulating damper 0 is in the seventh position, its first end is connected to the lower boundary of the main air duct 1, and its second end is in contact with the upper boundary of the main air duct 1. The first end of the circulating damper 0 can be used as a rotation point to control its clockwise rotation towards the eighth position until it reaches that position. When the circulating damper 0 is in the second position, its first end is connected to the lower boundary of the main air duct 1, and its second end is in contact with that lower boundary, meaning the circulating damper 0 is in contact with the lower boundary of the main air duct 1. The first end of the circulating damper 0 can be used as a rotation point to control its counterclockwise rotation towards the seventh position until it reaches that position.

[0112] In some examples, such as Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle air conditioner may also include a refrigerant circulation system, which includes a refrigerant circulation loop of the vehicle air conditioner. The pipes in the refrigerant circulation system are respectively connected to interface 3-1 and interface 3-2 at the second end of the evaporator 3. The refrigerant circulation system and the air circulation system can exchange heat through the evaporator 3 to realize the functions of deodorization, cooling, heating or dehumidification of the vehicle air conditioner.

[0113] like Figure 4 As shown, the refrigerant circulation system may include a compressor 10, a condenser 11, a heat exchanger (chiller) 12, a three-way valve 13, a first electronic expansion valve 14, a second electronic expansion valve 15, and a shut-off valve 16. Optionally, the refrigerant circulation system may also include a first one-way valve 17 and a second one-way valve 18.

[0114] The interface 3-2 of the evaporator 3 is connected to the first end of the three-way valve 13; the second end of the three-way valve 13 is connected to the first end of the compressor 10; the second end of the compressor 10 is connected to the first end of the condenser 11, and the second end of the condenser 11 is connected to the interface 3-1 of the evaporator 3 through the first electronic expansion valve 14.

[0115] In some examples, the second end of the three-way valve 13 can also be connected to the first end of the compressor 10 via the first one-way valve 17. In this way, the refrigerant can only flow from the second end of the three-way valve 13 to the first end of the compressor 10, and cannot flow from the first end of the compressor 10 to the second end of the three-way valve 13.

[0116] The compressor 10 is used to compress the refrigerant (also known as the refrigerant) from the evaporator 3 into a high-temperature and high-pressure gas. This high-temperature and high-pressure gas can flow through the condenser 11, which is used to condense the high-temperature and high-pressure gas into a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid.

[0117] The first electronic expansion valve 14 can be used to cool and / or depressurize the refrigerant. For example, when a medium-temperature, high-pressure liquid flows through the first electronic expansion valve 14, the valve can cool and / or depressurize it, transforming the liquid into a medium-temperature, medium-pressure liquid. Alternatively, it can transform the liquid into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid.

[0118] The first electronic expansion valve 14 can be used to control the flow rate of refrigerant into the evaporator 3, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the vehicle air conditioning temperature.

[0119] Specifically, when the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 14 increases, the refrigerant flow rate also increases accordingly, allowing more refrigerant to enter the evaporator 3. This further lowers the temperature of the evaporator 3, thus further reducing the indoor temperature. Conversely, when the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 14 decreases, the refrigerant flow rate also decreases accordingly, reducing the amount of refrigerant entering the evaporator 3. This causes the temperature of the evaporator 3 to rise, thereby increasing the indoor temperature.

[0120] The air conditioning cooling function can be achieved through the evaporator 3, three-way valve 13, compressor 10, condenser 11 and first electronic expansion valve 14.

[0121] The third end of the three-way valve 13 can be connected to the first end of the heat exchanger 12 through the second electronic expansion valve 15. The second electronic expansion valve 15 can be used to control the flow rate of refrigerant entering the heat exchanger 12.

[0122] In some examples, the third end of the three-way valve 13 can also be connected to the first end of the heat exchanger 12 via the second one-way valve 18 and the second electronic expansion valve 15, and the refrigerant can only flow through the third end of the three-way valve 13 to the second electronic expansion valve 15 and / or the first end of the heat exchanger 12.

[0123] The second electronic expansion valve 15 functions similarly to the first electronic expansion valve 14, cooling and / or depressurizing the refrigerant. Furthermore, the second electronic expansion valve 15 can be used to control the flow rate of refrigerant into the condenser 11, thereby achieving precise regulation of the vehicle's air conditioning temperature.

[0124] The second end of the heat exchanger 12 is connected to the first end of the compressor 10; the first end of the shut-off valve 16 is connected to the first end of the second electronic expansion valve 15, and the second end of the shut-off valve 16 is connected to the first end of the first electronic expansion valve 14.

[0125] In other examples, compressor 10 can be used to compress the refrigerant into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. This high-temperature, high-pressure gas can flow through condenser 11, which condenses the gas into a medium-temperature, high-pressure liquid. The medium-temperature, high-pressure liquid can pass through a second electronic expansion valve 15, becoming a medium-temperature, medium-pressure liquid or a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid. This liquid can then undergo heat exchange in heat exchanger 12, absorbing heat and becoming a high-temperature, medium-pressure liquid or a high-temperature, low-pressure liquid. Subsequently, this high-temperature, medium-pressure liquid or high-temperature, low-pressure liquid is compressed back into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas by compressor 10, completing the refrigerant circulation loop.

[0126] In the process of condensing high-temperature and high-pressure gas into medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid, the condenser 11 dissipates heat. This heat can be absorbed by the coolant and released by the coolant in the heater core 8 to heat the heater core 8 and realize the heating function of the air conditioner.

[0127] The following is about... Figure 5 The following describes the vehicle air conditioning control method, which can be implemented by the vehicle air conditioning system, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the processing flow of this method may include the following steps:

[0128] S501. Determine the operating status of the vehicle's air conditioning system.

[0129] S502. When the vehicle air conditioner switches from the first operating state to the second operating state, and the deodorizing damper 4 is in the first position, control the deodorizing damper 4 to switch to the second position.

[0130] In the first and / or second operating states, fresh air from the vehicle air conditioner reaches the vehicle interior through the evaporator 3.

[0131] In some examples, the vehicle air conditioning operating status is used to indicate one or more of the following states of the vehicle air conditioning: off or on. The operating modes of the vehicle air conditioning when on include one or more of the following: cooling mode, heating mode, ventilation mode, or dehumidification mode.

[0132] When the vehicle's air conditioning is in cooling, ventilation, or dehumidification mode, fresh air reaches the vehicle interior through the evaporator 3. When the vehicle's air conditioning is off or in heating mode, fresh air does not reach the vehicle interior through the evaporator 3.

[0133] For example, when the vehicle air conditioner switches from the off state to the cooling mode (which can be called turning on the cooling mode), switches from the off state to the dehumidification mode, switches from the off state to the ventilation mode, switches from the cooling mode to the ventilation mode, switches from the cooling mode to the heating mode, and switches from the cooling mode back to the off state, the deodorizing damper 4 can be controlled to switch to the second position to remove odors.

[0134] In some examples, if the duration for which the deodorizing damper 4 switches to the second position is longer than the first duration, the vehicle air conditioning system can control the deodorizing damper 4 to switch back to the first position. Switching the position of the deodorizing damper 4 does not affect the operating status of the vehicle air conditioning system. That is, when the vehicle air conditioning system switches to the second operating status, it can operate normally in the second operating status, providing functions such as cooling, heating, dehumidification, or ventilation, or it can be turned off.

[0135] By adding an odor-removing damper to the vehicle's air conditioning system, odors are eliminated when the system switches operating modes, expelling odor-laden air from the evaporator 3 outside the vehicle. This allows for simple and efficient odor removal before, during, and after use of the vehicle's air conditioning system, catering to various usage scenarios, reducing odors entering the vehicle during operation, minimizing odor accumulation, and continuously providing fresh air, thus improving the user experience.

[0136] In some examples, such as Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle air conditioner may also include an odor removal device 7 adjacent to the evaporator 3, an odor removal device 7 odor detection module, and an odor removal module.

[0137] The odor detection module can determine the odor concentration of the vehicle air conditioner. The odor concentration of the vehicle air conditioner can also be understood as the odor concentration around the evaporator 3 in the vehicle air conditioner.

[0138] When the vehicle air conditioner switches to the operating state and the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the deodorization module can be activated and the deodorization damper 4 can be switched to the second position, so that the main air duct 1 and the deodorization air duct 5 are connected to remove the odor from the vehicle.

[0139] In some examples, when the odor concentration is less than the second threshold and / or the duration for which the deodorizing damper 4 switches to the second position is greater than the first duration, the vehicle air conditioning system can shut down the deodorizing module and control the deodorizing damper 4 to switch to the first position. Subsequently, the vehicle air conditioning system can operate normally, providing cooling or heating functions.

[0140] In this way, when the odor concentration is too high, the deodorization module is turned on to sterilize and disinfect the evaporator 3 and exhaust the air passing through the evaporator 3 into the vehicle. This can easily and efficiently remove odors from the car air conditioner and reduce the amount of bacteria and mold blown directly into the car with the air conditioner, thereby reducing the harm to the human respiratory tract.

[0141] The following is combined with Figures 6 to 9The technical solution of this application and how it solves the aforementioned technical problems will be described in detail with specific embodiments. The vehicle air conditioner can switch between different operating states to achieve the effect of removing odors. The following specific embodiments can be implemented independently or in combination with each other. Identical or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments.

[0142] In some examples, the vehicle air conditioner switches from the first operating state to the second operating state. When the second operating state is the cooling mode or dehumidification mode in the on state, the vehicle air conditioner switches to the cooling mode or dehumidification mode. The vehicle air conditioner can detect the odor concentration. When the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the deodorization module is turned on and the deodorization damper 4 is controlled to switch to the second position to achieve deodorization of the vehicle air conditioner.

[0143] For example, let's take the switching of a vehicle's air conditioner from the off state to the cooling mode as an example.

[0144] like Figure 6 As shown in (a), before the vehicle air conditioner starts the cooling mode, the odor concentration can be detected by the odor detection module. If the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the vehicle air conditioner will remove the odor.

[0145] In some examples, the vehicle air conditioning system can also control the deodorization module to activate, entering a cooling and deodorizing mode to sterilize and disinfect the evaporator 3. The blower 9's operating speed is controlled to be below a first wind speed threshold, the first temperature damper 6-1 is in the third position, the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the fifth position, the deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the second position, and the recirculation damper 0 is in the seventh position. Fresh air carrying odors through the evaporator 3 is exhausted outside the vehicle via the deodorizing damper 4 and the deodorizing duct 5, thus removing odors from the vehicle air conditioning system. The blower 9's operating speed being below the first wind speed threshold prevents excessive fluctuations in odor concentration, maintaining a stable odor concentration in the air for the odor detection module to detect.

[0146] If the odor detection module detects that the odor concentration is less than the second threshold and / or the duration of the odor removal damper 4 switching to the second position is greater than the first duration, the vehicle air conditioner can stop odor removal and enter the cooling mode or dehumidification mode.

[0147] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown in (b), the vehicle air conditioner can control the deodorization module to shut down, the second temperature damper 6-2 switches to the sixth position, the operating wind speed of the blower 9 is greater than the second wind speed threshold, wherein the second wind speed threshold is greater than or equal to the first wind speed threshold, the air volume of the blower 9 is restored, and the blower 9 can deliver fresh air to the main air duct 1.

[0148] The refrigerant circulation system enters either cooling or dehumidification mode. Taking the refrigerant circulation system entering cooling mode as an example... Figure 6 As shown in (b), the first end of the three-way valve 13 is connected to the second end. The refrigerant can be transformed into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid through the compressor 13, condenser 11 and the first electronic expansion valve 14. It absorbs the heat of the fresh air in the evaporator 3, and after being cooled through the corresponding part of the air duct of the evaporator 3, it is blown into the vehicle interior through the air outlet of the air conditioning duct 2 to realize the cooling function of the vehicle air conditioner.

[0149] In this way, fresh air reaches the vehicle interior through the main air duct 1, the heat-absorbing evaporator 3, and the air conditioning duct 2, thus realizing the cooling function of the vehicle air conditioning.

[0150] In some examples, when the vehicle's air conditioning system is removing odors, the cooling or dehumidification mode is delayed, the cooling or dehumidification effect of the vehicle's air conditioning system is reduced, and the vehicle's air conditioning system can provide users with prompt information.

[0151] The notification message can be used to remind the user that the vehicle's air conditioning is in deodorization mode, and that the cooling or dehumidification effect is reduced.

[0152] For example, the prompt message may be a voice prompt or a text prompt on the in-vehicle screen; this application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0153] In some examples, when the second operating state is the ventilation mode in the power-on state, the vehicle air conditioner switches to the ventilation mode. The vehicle air conditioner can detect the odor concentration. If the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the deodorization module is activated and the deodorization damper 4 is controlled to switch to the second position to achieve deodorization of the vehicle air conditioner.

[0154] For example, when the heat load is low in spring and autumn, we can take the example of switching the vehicle's air conditioning from cooling mode to ventilation mode.

[0155] Before activating ventilation mode, the vehicle's air conditioning system shuts down in cooling mode, stops refrigerant circulation, and ceases operation. Before starting ventilation mode, an odor detection module can check the odor concentration. If the odor concentration exceeds a first threshold, the air conditioning system will remove the odor. See the above for details. Figure 6 (a) is a schematic diagram of the vehicle's air conditioning system.

[0156] In some examples, the vehicle's air conditioning system can also control the deodorization module to turn on, allowing it to enter a ventilation and deodorization mode to sterilize and disinfect the evaporator 3.

[0157] When the vehicle's air conditioning is in cooling mode, the evaporator 3 has a low temperature, and moisture in the air condenses into water droplets on its surface. These water droplets may carry bacteria and mold. The blower 9 is controlled to have a higher operating speed than the third wind speed threshold, which is greater than or equal to the second wind speed threshold. This higher wind speed accelerates the evaporation of moisture from the evaporator 3 surface. The first temperature damper 6-1 is in the third position, the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the fifth position, the deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the second position, and the recirculation damper 0 is in the seventh position. Fresh air carrying odors through the evaporator 3 is exhausted outside the vehicle via the deodorizing damper 4 and the deodorizing duct 5, thus removing odors from the vehicle's air conditioning system.

[0158] If the odor detection module detects that the odor concentration is less than the second threshold and / or the duration of the odor removal damper 4 switching to the second position is greater than the first duration, the vehicle air conditioner can stop odor removal and enter ventilation mode.

[0159] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the vehicle air conditioner can control the deodorization module to turn off, the deodorization damper 4 switches to the first position, the operating wind speed of the blower 9 is greater than the second wind speed threshold, wherein the second wind speed threshold is greater than or equal to the first wind speed threshold, the air volume of the blower 9 is restored, and the blower 9 can deliver fresh air to the main air duct 1.

[0160] In some examples, because the vehicle's air conditioning system is removing odors, which affects ventilation, the system can display a notification message to the user. This message can be used to inform the user that the air conditioning is in deodorizing mode, reducing ventilation.

[0161] In this way, fresh air reaches the vehicle interior through the main air duct 1, evaporator 3, heater core 8, and air conditioning duct 2, realizing the ventilation function of the vehicle air conditioning.

[0162] In some examples, when users raise the set temperature of the vehicle air conditioner in spring and autumn, the vehicle air conditioner switches from cooling mode to heating mode. That is, when the first operating state is cooling mode and the second operating state is heating mode, the vehicle air conditioner can detect the odor concentration. If the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the deodorization module is activated and the deodorization damper 4 is controlled to switch to the second position to remove the odor from the vehicle air conditioner.

[0163] The car air conditioner can turn off the cooling mode and detect the odor concentration through the odor detection module. If the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the car air conditioner will remove the odor.

[0164] The operating speed of blower 9 is controlled to be greater than the third wind speed threshold, and the third wind speed threshold is greater than or equal to the second wind speed threshold. The higher wind speed of blower 9 can accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the surface of evaporator 3. The first temperature damper 6-1 is in the third position, the second temperature damper 6-2 is in the fifth position, the deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the second position, and the circulation damper 0 is in the seventh position. Fresh air carrying odors through evaporator 3 is exhausted outside the vehicle through deodorizing damper 4 and deodorizing duct 5, thereby removing odors from the vehicle's air conditioning system.

[0165] Fresh air is carried by the evaporator 3 to remove odors outside the vehicle. Fresh air can also be heated by the heater core 8 and reach the vehicle interior through the air conditioning duct 2 to complete the heating function of the vehicle air conditioning.

[0166] In some examples, the vehicle air conditioner can also control the circulation mode of the refrigerant circulation system, so that the evaporator 3 dissipates heat and further eliminates residual moisture on the surface of the evaporator 3 through high temperature.

[0167] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown in (a), the first and third ends of the three-way valve 13 are connected, the first and second ends of the three-way valve 13 are closed, the valve 16 is closed, the opening degree of the first electronic expansion valve 14 is greater than the first opening degree threshold, and the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 15 is greater than the second opening degree threshold.

[0168] The refrigerant can be transformed into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas by the compressor 13, and then into a medium-temperature, high-pressure liquid by the condenser 11. The opening of the first electronic expansion valve 14 is relatively large, exceeding the first opening threshold. The medium-temperature, high-pressure liquid is transformed into a medium-temperature, medium-pressure liquid by the first electronic expansion valve 14. The medium-temperature, medium-pressure liquid can dissipate heat through the evaporator 3. The evaporator 3 further eliminates residual moisture on its surface through high temperature.

[0169] Subsequently, the refrigerant passing through the evaporator 3 returns to the compressor 13 via the first and third ends of the three-way valve 13, the second electronic expansion valve 15, and the heat exchanger 12. The second electronic expansion valve 15 controls the refrigerant flow rate; the larger the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 15, the greater the refrigerant flow, the more refrigerant flows through the evaporator 3, and the higher the temperature of the evaporator 3.

[0170] The opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 15 is greater than the second opening degree threshold, which increases the temperature of the evaporator 3, accelerates the removal of residual moisture on the surface of the evaporator 3, and improves efficiency.

[0171] The coolant in the condenser 11 can absorb the heat during the compression of the refrigerant and is connected to the heater core 8 to provide heat to the heater core 8. The vehicle air conditioner can deodorize and heat based on the above method.

[0172] Thus, by changing the circulation loop of the refrigerant circulation system, the residual moisture on the surface of the evaporator 3 can be eliminated by the high temperature of the evaporator 3 without the need to add other valves, thereby improving the flexibility of the embodiments of this application.

[0173] In some examples, the vehicle air conditioner can stop odor removal if the odor detection module detects that the odor concentration is less than the second threshold and / or the duration for which the deodorizing damper 4 switches to the second position is greater than the first duration.

[0174] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown in (b), the vehicle air conditioning system can control the deodorization module to shut down, control the blower 9 to operate at a speed greater than the second wind speed threshold, switch the first temperature damper 6-1 to the fourth position, and switch the deodorization damper 4 to the first position. The circulation damper 0 is in the seventh position, and fresh air reaches the vehicle interior through the main air duct 1, the heated air core 8, and the air conditioning duct 2 to complete the heating function of the vehicle air conditioning system.

[0175] Among them, the refrigerant circulation system enters the heating mode, such as Figure 8 As shown in (b), the first and third ends of the three-way valve 13 are closed, the first and second ends of the three-way valve 13 are connected, the stop valve 16 is connected, the first electronic expansion valve 14 is closed, the opening degree of the second electronic expansion valve 15 is greater than the second opening degree threshold, and the refrigerant circulation system enters the heating mode.

[0176] The refrigerant can return to the compressor 13 via the compressor 13, condenser 11, shut-off valve 16, second electronic expansion valve 15, and heat exchanger 12. The coolant passing through the condenser 11 absorbs the heat generated during refrigerant compression and connects to the heater core 8 to provide heat to it.

[0177] In some examples, because the vehicle's air conditioning system is deodorizing, which affects its heating performance, the system can display a notification message to the user. This message can be used to inform the user that the air conditioning is in deodorizing mode, resulting in reduced heating efficiency.

[0178] In this way, fresh air reaches the vehicle interior through the main air duct 1, the heated air core 8, and the air conditioning duct 2, realizing the heating function of the vehicle air conditioning.

[0179] In some examples, when the vehicle air conditioner is turned off, in the second operating state, the vehicle air conditioner can detect the odor concentration. If the odor concentration is greater than the first threshold, the deodorization module is turned on and the deodorization damper 4 is switched to the second position to achieve deodorization of the vehicle air conditioner.

[0180] For example, let's take the example of a car air conditioner switching from cooling mode to off mode.

[0181] When the car's air conditioning is turned off in cooling mode, the refrigerant circulation system stops working. Before turning off the air conditioning, you can enter the deodorization mode. This mode uses an odor detection module to check the odor concentration. If the odor concentration exceeds a first threshold, the air conditioning system will remove the odor. Please refer to the above for details. Figure 6 (a) is a schematic diagram of the vehicle's air conditioning system.

[0182] In some examples, the vehicle's air conditioning system can also control the deodorization module to turn on, allowing it to enter a ventilation and deodorization mode to sterilize and disinfect the evaporator 3.

[0183] By controlling the operating speed of blower 9 to exceed the fourth wind speed threshold, moisture on the surface of evaporator 3 can be evaporated. First temperature damper 6-1 is in the third position, second temperature damper 6-2 is in the fifth position, deodorizing damper 4 is switched to the second position, and recirculation damper 0 is in the seventh position. Fresh air carrying odors through evaporator 3 is exhausted outside the vehicle via deodorizing damper 4 and deodorizing duct 5, thus removing odors from the vehicle's air conditioning system.

[0184] If the odor detection module detects that the odor concentration is less than the second threshold and / or the duration of the odor removal damper 4 switching to the second position is greater than the first duration, the vehicle air conditioner can stop odor removal and turn off.

[0185] Specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, the vehicle air conditioner can control the deodorization module to turn off, the deodorization damper 4 to switch to the first position, the blower 9 to turn off, the circulation damper 0 to switch to the eighth position, and the vehicle air conditioner to turn off.

[0186] In this way, the car air conditioner removes odors when it is turned off, ensuring its cleanliness before the next time it is turned on.

[0187] In some examples, the vehicle air conditioner can also receive a deodorization command from the user before turning off, and enter a deodorization mode upon shutdown. By performing the above operations, the vehicle air conditioner removes odors upon shutdown, improving the user experience and increasing the ways to activate the deodorization mode, thus enhancing the applicability of the embodiments of this application.

[0188] It should be understood that the various thresholds and the first duration in the above embodiments can be customized by the user, or by the developer, or can be calculated by the vehicle air conditioner based on historical data. For example, the first duration can be 1 minute, etc. This application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.
