[0051] Some embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. Various changes, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, apparatus, and / or systems described herein will become apparent upon understanding the invention. For example, the order of operations described herein is merely illustrative and is not limited to those orders set forth herein, but can be changed as will become apparent upon understanding the invention, except for operations that must be performed in a specific order. Furthermore, for clarity and brevity, descriptions of features known in the art may be omitted.

[0052] The embodiments described in the following examples of the present invention do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the present invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0053] As a temperature regulating device, an air conditioner can operate in different modes, using the corresponding operating parameters to regulate the indoor temperature. For example, air conditioner operating modes may include energy-saving mode, sleep mode, silent mode, and independent dehumidification mode, to meet users' needs in different scenarios.

[0054] Because different operating modes correspond to different operating parameters, the temperature regulation capability of an air conditioner varies depending on the operating mode.

[0055] Currently, users primarily perceive an air conditioner's temperature regulation capabilities through physical sensation, making it difficult to directly observe the temperature adjustment under different operating modes. This is especially true for certain special operating modes, such as rapid cooling or rapid heating, where users may have a need for a more intuitive understanding of the air conditioner's temperature regulation capabilities. Therefore, relying on physical sensation to perceive temperature regulation capabilities negatively impacts the user experience.

[0056] Based on this, embodiments of the present invention provide a display method. After the air conditioner enters the target mode, it can acquire the temperature regulation capability in the target mode and the temperature regulation capability in the normal mode in real time, thereby calculating and displaying the improvement value of the temperature regulation capability of the target mode relative to the normal mode. The normal mode is a mode with the same temperature regulation function as the target mode. For example, when the target mode is cooling, the corresponding normal mode is also cooling. Since the normal mode may be a commonly used or frequently used mode, users can have a certain expectation of the temperature regulation capability of the normal mode. The display method of the present invention allows users to intuitively perceive the improvement of the target mode compared to the normal mode, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0057] The target mode can be any operating mode of the air conditioner. For example, the target mode can be a high-performance or rapid temperature-regulating operating mode. In some embodiments, the target mode may also be referred to as a high-performance mode, rapid cooling mode, rapid heating mode, or powerful mode, etc. This invention does not limit the target mode.

[0058] The embodiments described in the following examples of the present invention do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the present invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0059] It should be noted that in this invention, the target mode is the berserk mode. In the following embodiments, if berserk mode is mentioned, it refers to the target mode.

[0060] The target mode of the present invention will now be described by examining the operating states of the compressor, the first fan, and the second fan in the air conditioner. The first fan is located in the indoor unit of the air conditioner and can also be referred to as the indoor fan. The second fan is located in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and can also be referred to as the outdoor fan.

[0061] Optionally, in the "frenzy mode," the air conditioner's compressor operates at a frequency greater than a preset frequency, where the preset frequency is the maximum value of the compressor's operating frequency in other modes. These other modes refer to any of the air conditioner's multiple modes other than the target mode; this embodiment of the invention does not limit the specific modes.

[0062] The upper limit (i.e., maximum value) of the compressor operating frequency varies in different modes, and the preset frequency is the maximum value among multiple upper limits. Different air conditioners have different preset frequencies, and this invention does not limit the preset frequency.

[0063] Because the compressor operates at a higher frequency than in other modes in Ramp mode, Ramp mode can achieve rapid cooling or rapid heating.

[0064] In some embodiments, when the compressor's operating frequency is greater than a preset frequency, it indicates that the present invention targets the air conditioner's "extreme" mode. Specifically, the preset frequency is not the physical limit frequency that the compressor's hardware structure can withstand, but rather the maximum frequency among the normal frequencies set by the air conditioner in other modes to balance daily energy efficiency, equipment wear and tear, and operating noise. This normal frequency is based on scenarios of stable operation rather than extreme performance.

[0065] The core characteristic of the "Rampage Mode" is that the compressor operates at a frequency higher than the preset frequency. This is because the primary requirement of Rampage Mode is to rapidly reduce indoor temperature differences, thus exceeding the frequency limitations of normal mode. The compressor operates at a higher frequency to maximize cooling / heating capacity. In other words, Rampage Mode overcomes noise limitations to achieve maximum cooling or heating effects. This ensures that while the compressor's operating frequency exceeds the conventional upper limit, it remains below the compressor's hardware limits, achieving a balance between high-frequency efficiency and operational safety, precisely matching the usage scenarios of Rampage Mode.

[0066] In operating modes other than the scorching mode, the highest operating frequency of the compressor at maximum load is n1. In scorching mode, the compressor operating frequency is n2. Under the same operating conditions, n2 > n1, where n1 is less than the upper limit of the compressor nameplate frequency, and n2 is less than or equal to the upper limit of the compressor nameplate frequency. For example, in operating modes other than the scorching mode, taking a certain model of air conditioner as an example, in cooling mode, n1 is (80-90) Hz, in heating mode, n1 is (100-110) Hz, in scorching mode, in cooling mode, n2 is (91-140) Hz, and in heating mode, n2 is (111-140) Hz.

[0067] Taking a 1.5 horsepower air conditioner as an example, in all operating modes except for the "Raging Mode", the compressor operates at a maximum frequency of 108 Hz when at maximum load, reaching 77% of the upper limit of the compressor nameplate frequency. In "Raging Mode", the compressor is allowed to operate at a frequency exceeding 108 Hz, but less than or equal to 140 Hz. That is, in "Raging Mode", the compressor's maximum operating frequency can reach 100% of the upper limit of the compressor nameplate frequency.

[0068] In this way, when the air conditioner is in target mode, by controlling the compressor to operate at a higher frequency than in other modes, the user's need for rapid cooling or heating can be met, thus improving the user experience.

[0069] Optionally, in the "frenzy mode," the first fan operates as follows: when the difference between the inner ring temperature and the set temperature is greater than a preset temperature difference, the first fan operates at a speed greater than a first preset speed; this first preset speed is the maximum speed at which the first fan operates in frenzy mode. When the difference between the inner ring temperature and the set temperature is less than or equal to the preset temperature difference, the first fan operates at a speed set by the user.

[0070] The inner ring temperature is the indoor ambient temperature that the indoor unit detects in real time through temperature sensors and other temperature detection devices.

[0071] The set temperature is a target temperature that the user presets via the device's control panel, remote control, or linked APP. For example, set it to 24℃ when cooling and 26℃ when heating.

[0072] The first fan operates at different speeds in different modes, and the first preset speed is the maximum value among the speeds in multiple other modes. Different air conditioners correspond to different first preset speeds, and this invention does not limit this first preset speed.

[0073] The first fan is the fan component in the indoor unit used for air circulation and heat exchange. Its speed directly affects the heat exchange efficiency between indoor air and the heat exchanger. The higher the speed of the first fan, the faster the air circulation and the more obvious the cooling or heating effect.

[0074] The speed set by the user is the speed preset by the user according to their needs (such as pursuing quietness, avoiding direct airflow, etc.), such as low speed, medium speed, high speed, etc.

[0075] After the air conditioner enters the madness mode, it reads the inner ring temperature and the set temperature in real time and calculates the absolute difference between the two. When the difference is greater than the preset temperature difference, it means that the current indoor temperature is far from the set temperature and the temperature needs to be controlled quickly with the maximum heat exchange efficiency. Therefore, it can send a command to the first fan to run at a higher speed, so that the first fan runs at a speed greater than the first preset speed.

[0076] After the first fan starts running at a higher speed, the inner ring temperature will gradually approach the set temperature. During this process, the absolute difference between the inner ring temperature and the set temperature continues to be calculated in real time. When the absolute difference is less than or equal to the preset temperature difference, it indicates that the current indoor temperature is close to the set temperature, the demand for heat exchange efficiency decreases, and the first fan does not need to maintain a high speed. At this time, the first fan can switch to the speed set by the user.

[0077] In this way, in the "violent mode," if the indoor temperature differs significantly from the user-set temperature, the primary fan will operate at its maximum speed to maximize its heat exchange capacity, quickly narrowing the temperature gap and achieving rapid cooling or heating. Furthermore, when the indoor temperature approaches the user-set temperature, the system switches to the user-defined fan speed, ensuring a stable temperature approaching the set value while avoiding excessive noise or strong airflow caused by continuous high speed.

[0078] Optionally, in the Frenzy mode, the second fan operates as follows: the speed of the second fan is greater than the second preset speed, which is the maximum speed at which the second fan operates in other modes.

[0079] For example, when entering the Frenzy Mode, the second fan can operate at the maximum permissible speed.

[0080] The lower limit (i.e. minimum speed) of the second fan speed is different in different modes. The minimum speed when running in other modes is the minimum of multiple lower limits.

[0081] For example, in the rage mode, the control of the speed of the second fan may include: when entering the rage mode, the second fan runs at the maximum allowed speed; after a preset time of operation, or when the difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature is less than or equal to a preset value, the speed of the second fan is controlled according to the current operating status of the air conditioner (such as the compressor frequency) so that the speed of the second fan remains greater than the minimum speed during operation in other modes.

[0082] In this way, when entering the "frenzy mode," the second fan operates at its maximum permissible speed, enabling rapid cooling or heating after entering this mode. Furthermore, in frenzy mode, the second fan always operates at a speed greater than the minimum speed required in other modes, resulting in faster cooling or heating compared to other modes.

[0083] Other modes can be modes that meet noise requirements. For example, other modes may include gentle breeze mode, normal cooling / heating mode, and the highest fan speed setting. When the air conditioner is in these modes, the noise generated by the air conditioner needs to be lower than the preset noise level. For example, if the preset noise level of the indoor unit is 42 decibels and the preset noise level of the outdoor unit is 52 decibels, when the air conditioner is in these modes, the compressor and the indoor and outdoor fans will generate noise, but the noise levels of the indoor and outdoor units will still be within the preset noise levels of the indoor and outdoor units, respectively.

[0084] The preset noise levels of the indoor and outdoor units refer to the noise values ​​of the indoor and outdoor units as indicated on the nameplates, based on national standard testing.

[0085] It should be understood that the "Rampage Mode" can exceed the limitations of other modes, with at least one of the operating frequency and fan speed exceeding the preset value, or both. However, compared to other modes, it also approaches the hardware limits of the compressor and fan. Prolonged operation may cause the temperature of electrical components and control systems to exceed their limits. Therefore, within the design margin, Rampage Mode is allowed to run for 5-60 minutes before exiting. The duration of Rampage Mode can be set by the user or left as a default value.

[0086] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a display method according to some embodiments of the present invention. The air conditioner can be used to regulate the environment within a target space. The display method can be used in the air conditioner. In some embodiments, the air conditioner may include a processing module (also referred to as a processor or controller, or the main control board of the air conditioner, etc.). The executing entity of the display method can be the processing module (or in some embodiments, the executing entity of the display method can also be referred to as the air conditioner). The processing module can be, for example, any electronic module with processing capabilities, such as a microprocessor, an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a digital signal processor (DSP), etc. Figure 1 As shown, the display method may include the following steps:

[0087] In step S11, after the air conditioner enters the target mode, the first temperature regulation capability value of the air conditioner in the target mode and the second temperature regulation capability value of the air conditioner in the normal mode are determined in real time.

[0088] The relevant operating parameters for the target mode can be found in the description of the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0089] The normal mode is the air conditioner's default operating mode, such as normal cooling mode or normal heating mode. This normal mode has the same temperature regulation function as the target mode. For example, if the target mode is the extreme cooling mode, the normal mode is the normal cooling mode.

[0090] In this normal mode, the compressor frequency is controlled by a preset temperature regulation logic.

[0091] Optionally, both the first and second temperature regulation capacity values ​​can be cooling capacity, or both the first and second temperature regulation capacity values ​​can be heating capacity.

[0092] Whether the temperature regulation capacity value refers to cooling capacity or heating capacity depends on whether the air conditioner is in cooling or heating mode. If the air conditioner is in extreme cooling mode, the temperature regulation capacity value is the cooling capacity; if the air conditioner is in extreme heating mode, the temperature regulation capacity value is the heating capacity.

[0093] For example, the cooling capacity in "Peak" mode is 5000W, while the cooling capacity in "Normal" mode is 3500W.

[0094] In this way, by using cooling capacity or heating capacity as the temperature regulation capability value, the accuracy of the subsequently determined improvement value is higher.

[0095] In this step, determining the first temperature regulation capacity value of the air conditioner in the target mode in real time may include: acquiring the first operating frequency of the compressor in real time; and determining the cooling capacity or heating capacity of the target mode based on the first operating frequency.

[0096] Optionally, the cooling or heating capacity of the current target mode can be determined based on a pre-stored mapping relationship between the compressor's operating frequency and its cooling or heating capacity, using a first operating frequency acquired in real time. For example, when the compressor's operating frequency is detected to be 80Hz, the current cooling capacity is calculated to be 5000W based on the pre-stored mapping relationship.

[0097] For example, after determining the cooling capacity or heating capacity by the operating frequency of the compressor, a correction factor can be determined by the indoor ambient temperature and / or the outdoor ambient temperature. The determined cooling capacity or heating capacity can be corrected using the correction factor to obtain the final cooling capacity or heating capacity.

[0098] In this way, by acquiring the compressor's operating frequency in real time to calculate the cooling or heating capacity of the target mode, the calculated cooling or heating capacity corresponds to the compressor's operating status, resulting in high accuracy.

[0099] In this step, determining the second temperature regulation capability value of the air conditioner in normal mode may include: obtaining the outer ring temperature; determining the second operating frequency of the compressor in normal mode based on the outer ring temperature and a pre-stored mapping relationship; the mapping relationship is the mapping relationship between the outer ring temperature and the operating frequency of the compressor; and determining the cooling capacity or heating capacity in normal mode based on the second operating frequency.

[0100] The mapping relationship between the outer ring temperature and the compressor's operating frequency can be determined in advance through simulation. During the operation of the air conditioner, this mapping relationship can also be optimized based on the operating parameters of the air conditioner in normal mode to make the mapping relationship more consistent with the actual operating conditions of the air conditioner.

[0101] For example, the method for determining the cooling capacity or heating capacity of the normal mode based on the second operating frequency of the compressor can be found in the method for determining the cooling capacity or heating capacity of the target mode in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0102] In this way, the operating frequency of the compressor is estimated based on the outer ring temperature, thereby estimating the cooling and heating capacity in the normal mode, so as to determine the improvement in temperature regulation capability of the target mode relative to the normal mode.

[0103] Optionally, the second temperature regulation capability value of the air conditioner in normal mode can be determined by obtaining a pre-stored second temperature regulation capability value.

[0104] The second temperature regulation capability value is the value after the normal mode has reached a stable state. For example, it can be determined based on the upper limit of the compressor's operating frequency in normal mode.

[0105] In step S12, the temperature regulation capability improvement value of the target mode compared to the normal mode is determined and displayed based on the first temperature regulation capability value and the second temperature regulation capability value.

[0106] In this step, the temperature regulation capability improvement value can be displayed on the air conditioner's display screen or the user terminal device's application; however, this embodiment of the invention does not limit this.

[0107] The display method provided by this invention, after the air conditioner enters the target mode, acquires the temperature regulation capability in the target mode and the temperature regulation capability in the normal mode in real time, and displays the improvement value of the temperature regulation capability of the target mode compared with the normal mode, so that users can intuitively feel the improvement of the target mode compared with the normal mode, thereby improving the user experience.

[0108] The following explains the method for determining and displaying the improvement value of temperature regulation capability.

[0109] For example, after determining the first temperature regulation capability value and the second temperature regulation capability value, the percentage of the first temperature regulation capability value to the second temperature regulation capability value can be calculated to obtain the improvement value of the temperature regulation capability of the target mode compared to the conventional mode. For example, a temperature regulation capability improvement value of 140% means that the temperature regulation capability value of the target mode is 140% of the temperature regulation capability value of the conventional mode.

[0110] For example, after determining the first temperature regulation capability value and the second temperature regulation capability value, the difference between the first temperature regulation capability value and the second temperature regulation capability value can be calculated, and the percentage of this difference to the second temperature regulation capability value can be calculated to obtain the temperature regulation capability improvement value of the target mode compared to the conventional mode. For example, a temperature regulation capability improvement value of 30% means that the temperature regulation capability value of the target mode is improved by 30% compared to the conventional mode.

[0111] The second temperature regulation capability value in normal mode is determined based on the upper limit of the compressor's operating frequency in normal mode; that is, the second temperature regulation capability value is a fixed value. Furthermore, after entering the "frenzy" mode, the first temperature regulation capability value gradually increases; therefore, the overall temperature regulation capability value gradually increases.

[0112] Optionally, the percentage value corresponding to the temperature regulation capacity improvement can be displayed on the air conditioner's display screen or the application's display interface.

[0113] For example, a percentage value corresponding to the improvement in temperature regulation capability can be displayed on the air conditioner's display screen or the application's display interface using a dynamic progress bar or energy ring.

[0114] Alternatively, the application's display interface can show the percentage change corresponding to the improvement in temperature regulation capability by displaying a curve.

[0115] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a display interface according to some embodiments of the present invention. Figure 1 .

[0116] like Figure 2 As shown, the air conditioner displays the percentage value corresponding to the improvement in temperature regulation capacity in the form of a progress bar. Figure 2 The percentage increase in temperature regulation capability is 43%.

[0117] It should be understood that the maximum value of the progress bar is the maximum increase value of Berserk Mode relative to Normal Mode.

[0118] The progress bar can also be displayed on the application's screen on the user's terminal device.

[0119] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a display interface according to some embodiments of the present invention. Figure 2 .

[0120] like Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioner displays the percentage value corresponding to the improvement in temperature regulation capability in the form of an energy ring. Figure 3 The percentage increase in temperature regulation capability is 43%.

[0121] It should be understood that the maximum value of the energy ring is the maximum increase in power level between Berserk Mode and Normal Mode.

[0122] The energy ring can also be displayed on the application interface of the user's terminal device.

[0123] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a temperature regulation capability enhancement value change curve according to some embodiments of the present invention.

[0124] like Figure 4 As shown, after the air conditioner enters the "frenzy mode," the temperature regulation capability increases gradually over time.

[0125] In this way, by displaying the percentage value corresponding to the improvement in temperature regulation capability on the air conditioner's display screen or the application's display interface, users can intuitively see the improvement value of the target mode compared to the normal mode, thus improving the user experience.

[0126] As shown in the above embodiments, when displaying the percentage increase in temperature regulation capability via a progress bar or energy ring, a percentage value can also be displayed.

[0127] Optionally, when the temperature regulation capability improvement value reaches any of the multiple preset values, the corresponding preset value is displayed.

[0128] For example, the multiple preset values ​​may be values ​​with non-proportional intervals or values ​​with proportional intervals, and the present invention does not limit this.

[0129] The preset values ​​can be 0%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 95%, 120%, etc., and this invention does not limit them.

[0130] For example, when the temperature regulation capability improvement value reaches 95%, the preset value of 95% is displayed. As the temperature regulation capability improvement value increases, when the temperature regulation capability improvement value reaches 120%, the preset value of 120% is displayed. In other words, when the temperature regulation capability improvement value is between 95% and 120%, 95% is displayed.

[0131] By displaying the temperature regulation capability improvement value at non-uniform intervals, the frequent display changes caused by rapid changes in the temperature regulation capability improvement value can be reduced, thus improving the user experience.

[0132] Based on the description of the above embodiments, when the temperature regulation capability improvement value is displayed through the progress bar or energy ring, if the indoor temperature reaches the set temperature, the target mode is exited and a fully filled progress bar or energy ring is displayed.

[0133] In this way, when exiting the target mode, a progress bar or energy ring showing a fully filled state is displayed, allowing users to intuitively feel the improvement of the target mode compared to the regular mode when exiting the target mode.

[0134] In this invention, the air conditioner can enter the target mode in response to a first command input by the user to activate the target mode.

[0135] For example, when a user enters the room from the hot outdoors, they can input a first command to enter the target mode. In response to the first command, the user enters the target mode, which is a rapid cooling mode.

[0136] For example, when a user enters the room from the cold outdoors, they can input a first command to enter the target mode. In response to this first command, the user enters the target mode, which is a rapid heating mode.

[0137] After entering the target mode, the operation of the compressor, the first fan, and the second fan can be referred to the description in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0138] In this way, the air conditioner can enter the target mode based on the user's operation, meeting the user's needs for rapid cooling or rapid heating and improving the user experience.

[0139] The air conditioner can respond to a second command to exit the target mode, which is input by the user, or generated when the air conditioner detects that the running time in the target mode has reached a preset duration.

[0140] The preset duration can be pre-set according to the actual situation of the air conditioner, for example, obtained by pre-running the high-power mode, or the preset duration can be user-defined or a default duration. This invention does not limit the preset duration.

[0141] For example, the second instruction to exit the target mode can be generated based on the user's input to exit the target mode, or it can be generated when the air conditioner is detected to have run in the target mode for a preset duration. The present invention does not limit this.

[0142] It should be understood that after exiting the target mode, the air conditioner will operate in the normal mode.

[0143] In this way, the air conditioner can exit the target mode based on user input or when the operating parameters meet the requirements, so as to avoid the air conditioner's components being affected when it runs in the target mode for a long time.

[0161] Those skilled in the art will also understand that the various illustrative logical blocks and steps listed in the embodiments of the present invention can be implemented by electronic hardware, computer software, or a combination of both. Whether such functionality is implemented through hardware or software depends on the specific application and the overall system design requirements. Those skilled in the art can implement the functionality using various methods for each specific application, but such implementation should not be construed as exceeding the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0162] In the above detailed description, reference has been made to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate specific aspects in which the invention can be practiced. In this regard, terms indicating direction or positional relationship, such as “center,” “longitudinal,” “lateral,” “length,” “width,” “thickness,” “upper,” “lower,” “front,” “rear,” “left,” “right,” “vertical,” “horizontal,” “top,” “bottom,” “inner,” “outer,” “clockwise,” “counterclockwise,” “axial,” “radial,” and “circumferential,” can be used with reference to the orientation of the described figures. Since components of the described device can be positioned in multiple different orientations, directional terms are used for illustrative purposes and not for limitation. It should be understood that other aspects can be utilized and structural or logical changes can be made without departing from the concept of the invention. Therefore, the following detailed description should not be considered limiting.

[0163] It should be understood that, unless otherwise specifically indicated, features of various embodiments of the invention described herein can be combined with each other. As used herein, the term “and / or” includes any one of the relevant listed items and any combination of any two or more; similarly, “at least one of…” includes any one of the relevant listed items and any combination of any two or more.

[0164] It should be understood that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "joining," "attaching," "installing," "connecting," "linking," and "fixing," as used in the embodiments of the present invention, should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows communication between them; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms herein according to the specific circumstances.

[0165] Furthermore, the term "above" as used herein with respect to components, elements, or material layers formed or located "above" a surface may be used to indicate that the component, element, or material layer is "indirectly" positioned (e.g., placed, formed, deposited, etc.) on the surface such that one or more additional components, elements, or layers are arranged between the surface and the component, element, or material layer. However, the term "above" as used with respect to components, elements, or material layers formed or located "above" a surface may also optionally have a specific meaning: that the component, element, or material layer is "directly" positioned (e.g., placed, formed, deposited, etc.) on the surface, for example, in direct contact with the surface.

[0166] Although terms such as “first,” “second,” and “third” may be used herein to describe various components, parts, regions, layers, or sections, these components, parts, regions, layers, or sections are not limited to these terms. Rather, these terms are used only to distinguish one component, part, region, layer, or section from another. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the examples described herein, the first component, part, region, layer, or section mentioned in the examples may also be referred to as the second component, part, region, layer, or section. Furthermore, 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 at least one of that feature. In the description herein, “a plurality” means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0167] It should be understood that spatial relative terms, such as “above,” “upper,” “below,” and “lower,” are used herein to describe the relationship between one element and another shown in the figures. In addition to the orientation depicted in the figures, these spatial relative terms are also intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation. For example, if the device in the figures is flipped, an element described as “above” or “upper” relative to another element would be “below” or “lower” relative to that other element. Thus, depending on the spatial orientation of the device, the term “above” encompasses both above and below orientations. Devices may have other orientations (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative terms used herein should be interpreted accordingly.

[0168] Furthermore, the term “exemplary” is used herein to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any aspect or design described herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as advantageous compared to other aspects or designs. Rather, the use of the term “exemplary” is intended to present the concept in a concrete manner. As used herein, the term “or” is intended to mean an inclusive “or” rather than an exclusive “or.” That is, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context, “X applies A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive arrangements. That is, “X applies A or B” satisfies any of the foregoing instances if X applies A; X applies B; or both X applies A and B. Additionally, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context to refer to the singular form, the articles “a” and “an” as used in this application and the appended claims are generally understood to mean “one or more.”

[0169] Similarly, although the invention has been shown and described with respect to one or more implementations, equivalent variations and modifications will occur to those skilled in the art upon reading and understanding this specification and the accompanying drawings. The invention includes all such modifications and variations and is limited only by the scope of the claims. In particular, with respect to the various functions performed by the components described above (e.g., elements, resources, etc.), unless otherwise indicated, the terminology used to describe such components is intended to correspond to any component (functionally equivalent) that performs the specific function of the described component, even if structurally not equivalent to the disclosed structure. Furthermore, although specific features of the invention may have been disclosed with respect to only one of several implementations, such features may be combined with one or more other features of other implementations, as may be desired and advantageous for any given or particular application. Moreover, with regard to the terms “comprising,” “owning,” “having,” “having,” or variations thereof as used in the detailed description or claims, such terms are intended to be inclusive in a manner similar to the term “including.”

[0170] Other embodiments of the invention will readily occur to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the specification and practice of the invention disclosed herein. This invention is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the invention that follow the general principles of the invention and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein. The specification and examples are to be considered exemplary only, and the true scope and spirit of the invention are indicated by the following claims.

[0171] It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the precise structure described above and shown in the accompanying drawings, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from its scope. The scope of the invention is limited only by the appended claims.
