[0086] The air conditioner provided in this application, employing the control method of the air conditioner in the following embodiments, can solve the technical problem of how to improve indoor comfort. Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the air conditioner provided in this application are the same as the beneficial effects of the control method of the air conditioner provided in the following embodiments, and other technical features of this air conditioner are the same as those disclosed in the method of the following embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0087] It should be noted that the executing entity in this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a tablet computer, personal computer, or mobile phone, or an electronic device or air conditioner capable of performing the above functions. The following description uses an air conditioner as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the subsequent embodiments.

[0088] Based on this, the embodiments of this application provide a control method for an air conditioner, referring to... Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the control method for the air conditioner of this application.

[0089] In this embodiment, the indoor space regulated by the air conditioner includes at least two indoor zones. These at least two indoor zones can be fixed zones pre-defined based on the air outlet range of the air conditioner, zones defined by the user based on their needs, or zones determined by the air conditioner based on user status analysis within the indoor space. The at least two indoor zones can be distributed horizontally, vertically, or include at least two first indoor zones distributed horizontally and at least two second indoor zones distributed vertically. The control method for the air conditioner includes steps S10 to S20:

[0090] Step S10: Control the air conditioner to operate in the target heat exchange mode, and control the air conditioner to operate so that the heat exchange of the target area in the at least two indoor areas is greater than the heat exchange of other indoor areas outside the target area;

[0091] The target heat exchange mode includes cooling or heating modes. The target heat exchange mode is set based on the current heat exchange needs of the users in the indoor space.

[0092] The target area is the area within at least two indoor zones where comfort needs must be prioritized. This target area can be considered the user's activity area. The target area can be selected and set by the user based on instructions, or it can be the area where a human body is located, determined by data from a human body detection module, or it can be the area where the user most frequently moves within the room, determined by analyzing historical operating data of the air conditioner's air guide components. Specifically, when the air conditioner is equipped with a human body detection module, the target area can be determined based on the data detected by the module; when the air conditioner does not have a human body detection module, the target area can be obtained by analyzing historical operating data of the air guide components.

[0093] When the heat exchange of the target area is greater than that of other indoor areas, the temperature regulation rate of the target area is greater than that of other indoor areas.

[0094] In one implementation, the air outlet direction of the air conditioner can be controlled to direct the airflow towards the target area, thereby achieving a greater heat exchange in the target area than in other indoor areas.

[0095] In another implementation, when the air conditioner has multiple air outlets, the air outlet corresponding to the target area can be opened, and the other air outlets can be closed, thereby achieving a heat exchange rate in the target area that is greater than that in other indoor areas.

[0096] In another implementation, during the process of the air conditioner’s air outlet direction switching sequentially between various indoor areas, when the air conditioner’s air outlet direction is towards the target area, the compressor is controlled to operate at a first frequency and / or the indoor fan is controlled to operate at a first speed, and when the air conditioner’s air outlet direction is towards other indoor areas, the compressor is controlled to operate at a second frequency and / or the indoor fan is controlled to operate at a second speed, wherein the first frequency is greater than the second frequency and the first speed is greater than the second speed.

[0097] In this embodiment, when the intelligent temperature control function of the air conditioner is turned on, step S10 is executed. The intelligent temperature control function can be turned on or off according to user commands.

[0098] Step S20: When the air conditioner is running to meet the first condition, control the air conditioner to run so that the temperature difference between the temperature of each indoor area and the set temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference.

[0099] In this embodiment, the first condition includes the temperature difference between the indoor space temperature and the set temperature being less than or equal to a second preset temperature difference, where the second preset temperature difference is greater than a first preset temperature difference. In some other implementations, the first state is defined as the heat exchange of the target area being greater than the heat exchange of other indoor areas outside the target area, and the first condition may include the duration of the first state being greater than or equal to a preset duration.

[0100] In this embodiment, both the first preset temperature difference and the second preset temperature difference are greater than 0. When the target heat exchange mode is cooling mode, the temperature difference corresponding to the indoor area is the difference between the temperature of the indoor area and the set temperature, and the temperature difference corresponding to the indoor space is the difference between the temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature; when the target heat exchange mode is heating mode, the temperature difference corresponding to the indoor area is the difference between the set temperature and the temperature of the indoor area, and the temperature difference corresponding to the indoor space is the difference between the set temperature and the temperature of the indoor space.

[0101] In one implementation, the air guide component of the air conditioner can be used to sweep the air to ensure that the temperature difference between each indoor area and the set temperature is less than or equal to a first preset temperature difference.

[0102] In another implementation, when the air conditioner has multiple air outlets, it is possible to control the opening of other air outlets besides the one corresponding to the target area, or to alternately open the air outlet corresponding to the target area with other air outlets, so that the temperature difference between each indoor area and the set temperature is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference.

[0103] In another implementation, the air guide component of the air conditioner can be controlled to direct airflow toward other indoor areas and the indoor fan can be controlled to run at a speed greater than the preset speed, so that the temperature difference between each indoor area and the set temperature is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference.

[0104] This embodiment provides a control method for an air conditioner. During the operation of the air conditioner in the target heat exchange mode, local priority heat exchange is first performed on the target area to prioritize the comfort of users in the target area. Then, the operation of the air conditioner is further controlled to adjust the temperature of each indoor area in the indoor space to reach the set temperature, thereby achieving uniform adjustment of the global temperature of the target space and effectively improving indoor comfort.

[0105] In one feasible implementation, the step of controlling the operation of the air conditioner to make the heat exchange of the target area greater than that of other indoor areas outside the target area in the at least two indoor areas includes: controlling the air guide assembly of the air conditioner to operate in a first air guide position so that the air conditioner delivers air toward the target area.

[0106] In this embodiment, the air guiding assembly includes an upper and lower air guiding assembly and a left and right air guiding assembly. The step of controlling the air guiding assembly of the air conditioner to operate at a first air guiding position so that the air conditioner delivers air toward the target area includes: controlling the upper and lower air guiding assembly to operate at a first air guiding angle, wherein the air outlet resistance corresponding to the first air guiding angle is less than a preset air resistance; controlling the left and right air guiding assembly to operate at a second air guiding angle so that the air guiding direction of the left and right air guiding assembly is toward the target area; wherein, the first air guiding position includes the first air guiding angle and the second air guiding angle.

[0107] It should be noted that there is no specific limitation on the order of adjusting the air guiding angles of the upper and lower air guiding components and the left and right air guiding components; they can be performed sequentially or simultaneously.

[0108] The air outlet resistance is the resistance encountered by the airflow as it passes through the upper and lower air guide components. The preset resistance can be [30%, 50%] of the maximum resistance encountered by the airflow when passing through the upper and lower air guide components. In this embodiment, the air outlet resistance corresponding to the first air guide angle is the minimum resistance encountered by the airflow when passing through the upper and lower air guide components. In this embodiment, the air guide direction corresponding to the first air guide angle is horizontal.

[0109] During the operation of the air guide assembly in the first air guide position, it can be determined whether the air conditioner meets the first condition.

[0110] In this embodiment, by controlling the airflow position of the air guide assembly, the air conditioner is directed towards the target area, thereby concentrating the heat exchange of the air conditioner to the target area and achieving rapid local temperature adjustment in the target area, thus quickly improving the comfort of users in the target area.

[0111] In other embodiments, when the air guiding assembly includes an upper and lower air guiding assembly but not a left and right air guiding assembly, the upper and lower air guiding assembly can also be controlled to operate at a fourth air guiding angle so that the air guiding direction of the upper and lower air guiding assembly is towards the target area, and the first air guiding assembly includes the fourth air guiding angle. In other embodiments, when the air guiding assembly includes a left and right air guiding assembly but not an upper and lower air guiding assembly, the first air guiding position may also include a second air guiding angle.

[0112] In one feasible implementation, the step of controlling the air guide assembly of the air conditioner to operate at a first air guide position so that the air conditioner delivers air toward the target area further includes: controlling the compressor of the air conditioner to operate at a frequency greater than a preset frequency, and / or controlling the indoor fan of the air conditioner to operate at a speed greater than a preset speed.

[0113] Operating the compressor at a frequency higher than a preset frequency refers to high-frequency operation of the compressor. The preset frequency can be [50%, 80%] of the compressor's maximum frequency. For example, the compressor can operate at its maximum frequency, where the maximum frequency can be the highest frequency allowed for compressor operation, or it can be an upper limit temperature determined based on the ambient temperature.

[0114] Operating the indoor fan at a speed higher than the preset speed means that the indoor fan is running at a high speed. The preset speed can be [50% or 80% of the maximum speed of the indoor fan]. For example, the indoor fan can operate at its highest speed.

[0115] In this embodiment, the air conditioner can output a large amount of heat exchange to achieve a rapid rise or fall in temperature in the target area, thereby rapidly improving the comfort of users in the target area.

[0116] In other embodiments, the compressor's operating frequency and / or the indoor fan's operating speed can be adjusted according to the temperature of the indoor space.

[0117] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the second embodiment of this application, the same or similar content as the above embodiments can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, please refer to... Figure 4The step of controlling the operation of the air conditioner to make the heat exchange of the target area greater than that of other indoor areas outside the target area in the at least two indoor areas includes:

[0118] Step S11: Control the air guide assembly of the air conditioner to operate at a first air guide position so that the air conditioner delivers air toward the target area;

[0119] The method of step S11 can be found in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0120] Step S12: When the duration of the air conditioner blowing air toward the target area reaches a first duration, the air guide component is controlled to oscillate back and forth between the first air guide position and the third air guide position; wherein, the air volume corresponding to the third air guide position is the maximum air volume.

[0121] In this embodiment, the air guiding assembly includes an upper and lower air guiding assembly and a left and right air guiding assembly. The third air guiding position may include the aforementioned first air guiding angle and the fifth air guiding angle corresponding to the left and right air guiding assemblies. The air resistance corresponding to the fifth air guiding angle is the minimum air resistance, where the air resistance is the resistance encountered by the airflow from the outlet as it passes through the left and right air guiding assemblies. In other implementations, when the air guiding assembly includes left and right air guiding assemblies but not an upper and lower air guiding assembly, the first air guiding position includes the second air guiding angle, and the third air guiding position may include the fifth air guiding angle.

[0122] In this embodiment, the air conditioner first directs airflow towards the target area for concentrated heat exchange, and then the oscillation of the air guide component enhances the disturbance of indoor air. Based on the priority heat exchange of the target area, the temperature of other indoor areas is regulated, reducing the temperature difference between other indoor areas and the target area. This helps to further improve the local comfort of the target area and the overall comfort of the entire indoor space.

[0123] In other embodiments, the third air guide position can be a pre-set fixed position or a position determined according to the actual operation of the air conditioner. For example, the air guide direction corresponding to the third air guide position can be towards an indoor area where there are people but fewer people than the target area.

[0124] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the third embodiment of this application, the same or similar content as the above embodiments can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, the step of controlling the operation of the air conditioner to ensure that the temperature difference between each indoor area and the set temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to a first preset temperature difference includes:

[0125] Control the air conditioner to direct airflow to other indoor areas outside the target area.

[0126] Here, the air conditioner can direct airflow or oscillate airflow toward other indoor areas besides the target area.

[0127] In this embodiment, the air guiding assembly includes an upper and lower air guiding assembly and a left and right air guiding assembly. The step of controlling the air conditioner to deliver air to other indoor areas outside the target area includes: controlling the upper and lower air guiding assembly to operate at a third air guiding angle, the air guiding direction corresponding to the third air guiding angle being towards the upper area of ​​the indoor space, the upper area being at a higher spatial height than the target area; and controlling the left and right air guiding assembly to swing. The third air guiding angle can be a preset fixed angle, or it can be an angle determined according to the actual operating conditions of the air conditioner, for example, it can be determined according to the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature, etc. When the upper and lower air guiding assembly operates at the third air guiding angle, the air conditioner delivers air upwards. Here, through the cooperation of the upper and lower air guiding assembly and the left and right air guiding assembly, the air conditioner can avoid directly blowing air onto users in the target area while enhancing the air turbulence in the indoor space, thereby achieving uniform global temperature regulation of the indoor space and further improving indoor comfort.

[0128] In this embodiment, the air conditioner directs airflow towards other indoor areas, which helps to effectively reduce the temperature difference between other indoor areas and the target area, thereby effectively improving the temperature uniformity of different indoor areas and further enhancing indoor comfort.

[0129] In other embodiments, the step of controlling the operation of the air conditioner so that the temperature difference between each indoor area and the set temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to a first preset temperature difference may also include: controlling the upper and lower air guide components and the left and right air guide components to swing.

[0130] In one feasible implementation, refer to Figure 5 The step of controlling the operation of the air conditioner to ensure that the temperature difference between each indoor area and the set temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to a first preset temperature difference further includes:

[0131] Step S21: When the temperature difference between the current temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature is greater than the first preset temperature difference and less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the indoor fan of the air conditioner is controlled to adjust its operating speed according to the temperature state of the indoor space, and the compressor of the air conditioner is controlled to adjust its operating frequency according to the operating speed of the indoor fan.

[0132] The temperature status of an indoor space may include at least one of the following: the current temperature of the indoor space, the temperature change value of the indoor space, the temperature change trend of the indoor space, the temperature of the indoor space detected at different times, etc.

[0133] The target operating speed of the indoor fan can be determined based on the temperature conditions, and the indoor fan can be controlled to operate at the target operating speed; alternatively, the speed adjustment parameters of the indoor fan can be determined based on the temperature conditions, and the current operating speed of the indoor fan can be adjusted according to the speed adjustment parameters. The target operating speed may include the required operating speed value of the indoor fan or the required operating speed setting of the indoor fan.

[0134] The target frequency of the compressor is determined based on the operating speed of the indoor fan corresponding to the temperature condition, and the compressor is controlled to operate at the target frequency. Alternatively, the frequency adjustment parameters of the compressor are determined based on the operating speed of the indoor fan corresponding to the temperature condition, and the current frequency of the compressor is adjusted according to the frequency adjustment parameters. The operating speed of the indoor fan corresponding to the temperature condition is either the aforementioned target operating speed or the actual operating speed of the indoor fan after adjusting the speed according to the speed adjustment parameters.

[0135] In this embodiment, the process of controlling the indoor fan to adjust its operating speed according to the temperature state of the indoor space is as follows: the target operating speed of the indoor fan is determined based on a first temperature difference between the initial temperature of the indoor space in a preset state and the set temperature, and a second temperature difference between the current temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature; the indoor fan is controlled to operate at the target operating speed; wherein, the preset state is the state when the temperature difference between the indoor space and the set temperature is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference.

[0136] When the air conditioner starts the target heat exchange mode, the real-time temperature of the indoor space can be detected. When the temperature difference between the real-time temperature and the set temperature is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the real-time temperature can be used as the initial temperature. Alternatively, during the operation of the target heat exchange mode, when the temperature difference between the indoor space temperature and the set temperature changes from a state greater than the second preset temperature difference to a state less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the temperature of the indoor space at this time can be used as the initial temperature.

[0137] When the target heat exchange mode is cooling mode, the first temperature difference value is the difference between the initial temperature and the set temperature, and the second temperature difference value is the difference between the current temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature; when the target heat exchange mode is heating mode, the first temperature difference value is the difference between the set temperature and the initial temperature, and the second temperature difference value is the difference between the set temperature and the current temperature of the indoor space.

[0138] Specifically, a first relationship value can be determined between the first temperature difference value and the second temperature difference value. The target operating speed is determined based on the first relationship value and the maximum speed of the indoor fan. For example, the first relationship value is the ratio of the first temperature difference value to the second temperature difference value, and the product of the ratio and the maximum speed is used as the target operating speed; or the first relationship value is the difference between the first temperature difference value and the second temperature difference value, and the speed adjustment amplitude is determined based on the difference, and the difference between the maximum speed and the speed adjustment amplitude is used as the target operating speed.

[0139] In this embodiment, the process of controlling the compressor to adjust its operating frequency based on the operating speed of the indoor fan is as follows: The speed difference between the maximum operating speed of the indoor fan and the maximum operating speed of the indoor fan is determined; a target frequency adjustment amplitude is determined based on the speed difference and the maximum frequency adjustment amplitude of the compressor; a first target frequency of the compressor is determined based on the target frequency adjustment amplitude and the maximum frequency of the compressor; and the compressor is controlled to operate at the first target frequency. The maximum frequency adjustment amplitude is the difference between the maximum frequency and the minimum frequency of the compressor. A second relationship value (e.g., a ratio or difference) between the speed difference and the maximum speed is determined; the target frequency adjustment amplitude is determined based on the second relationship value and the maximum frequency adjustment amplitude; and the difference between the maximum frequency and the target frequency adjustment amplitude is used as the first target frequency. For example, if the second relationship value is a ratio, the product of the maximum frequency adjustment amplitude and the ratio can be used as the target frequency adjustment amplitude.

[0140] Step S22: When the temperature difference between the current temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference, control the indoor fan to run at a varying speed, and control the compressor to adjust its operating frequency according to the reference speed corresponding to the temperature state of the indoor space; wherein, the second preset temperature difference is greater than the first preset temperature difference.

[0141] During the operation of the indoor fan at varying speeds, the indoor fan can switch to different speeds at set intervals. The at least two speeds in which the indoor fan operates can be preset fixed speeds or speeds determined according to the actual operating conditions of the air conditioner.

[0142] In this embodiment, the indoor fan is controlled to operate at a varying speed within a target speed range. The target speed range is defined as the operating speed of the indoor fan when the temperature difference between the indoor space and the set temperature is greater than a second preset temperature difference. Within the target speed range, the indoor fan can be preset to vary its speed difference. The target speed range has a lower speed limit and an upper speed limit. For example, the lower speed limit is 10% of the maximum speed of the indoor fan, and the upper speed limit is 60% of the maximum speed. The indoor fan can sequentially operate at 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and 60% of its maximum speed, and then sequentially operate at 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, 20%, and 10% of its maximum speed.

[0143] In this embodiment, the reference speed is not the actual operating speed of the indoor fan, but a virtual speed.

[0144] In this embodiment, the compressor frequency control process is as follows: A reference rotational speed is determined based on a third temperature difference between the initial temperature of the indoor space in a preset state and the set temperature, and a fourth temperature difference between the current temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature; a second target frequency of the compressor is determined based on the reference rotational speed, the second target frequency being positively correlated with the reference rotational speed; the compressor is controlled to operate at the second target frequency; wherein, the preset state is the state where the temperature difference between the indoor space temperature and the set temperature is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference. The process of determining the reference rotational speed based on the indoor space temperature state can be analogous to the process of determining the target operating speed based on the indoor space temperature state described above, and the process of determining the second target frequency based on the reference rotational speed can be analogous to the process of determining the first target frequency based on the operating speed of the indoor fan described above, and will not be elaborated further here.

[0145] After step S21 or step S22, the current temperature of the indoor space can be reacquired at set intervals. If the temperature difference between the current temperature and the set temperature is greater than the second preset temperature difference, the above-mentioned step of controlling the operation of the air conditioner to make the heat exchange of the target area in the at least two indoor areas greater than the heat exchange of other indoor areas outside the target area can be executed. If the temperature difference between the current temperature and the set temperature is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, step S21 or step S22 can be executed.

[0146] In this embodiment, when the temperature difference between the indoor space and the set temperature is moderate, the compressor frequency is controlled in conjunction with the indoor fan speed control based on the indoor temperature state. This helps to reduce the temperature difference between different indoor areas while ensuring indoor temperature comfort and saving energy. When the temperature difference between the indoor space and the set temperature is small, the indoor fan is no longer controlled based on the room temperature but operates at a variable speed. This helps to increase the disturbance of the air in the indoor space, thereby improving the overall temperature uniformity of the indoor space. Based on this, combined with fan frequency linkage control based on the indoor temperature state, this helps to save air conditioning energy consumption while ensuring that the air conditioner's output capacity matches the indoor load, ensuring that each indoor area can reach and maintain a comfortable state.

[0147] In other embodiments, if the temperature difference between the current temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature is greater than the first preset temperature difference and less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the target operating speed of the indoor fan and the target operating frequency of the compressor can be determined by the temperature range in which the current temperature of the indoor space is located, and the indoor fan is controlled to operate at the target operating speed and the compressor is controlled to operate at the target operating frequency.

[0148] In other embodiments, the speed difference between the operating speed of the indoor fan and the minimum speed of the indoor fan can also be determined, the target frequency adjustment amplitude can be determined based on the speed difference and the maximum frequency adjustment amplitude of the compressor, and the first target frequency of the compressor can be determined based on the target frequency adjustment amplitude and the minimum frequency of the compressor.

[0149] In other embodiments, if the temperature difference between the current temperature and the set temperature of the indoor space is less than the first preset temperature difference, the indoor fan can be controlled to run at the minimum speed and the compressor can be controlled to run at the minimum frequency.

[0150] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the fourth embodiment of this application, the same or similar content as the above embodiments can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, refer to... Figure 6 If the step of controlling the air conditioner to operate in the target heat exchange mode is defined as step S101, then after step S101, the following may also be included:

[0151] Step S102: Obtain the first indoor temperature of the indoor space;

[0152] Step S103: Determine whether the temperature difference between the first indoor temperature and the set temperature is greater than the second preset temperature difference, wherein the second preset temperature difference is greater than the first preset temperature difference;

[0153] If the temperature difference between the first indoor temperature and the set temperature is greater than the second preset temperature difference, then step S104 is executed and then step S105 is executed; if the temperature difference between the first indoor temperature and the set temperature is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, then step S201 is executed.

[0154] Step S104: Controlling the air conditioner to operate so that the heat exchange of the target area in the at least two indoor areas is greater than the heat exchange of other indoor areas outside the target area;

[0155] Step S105: Obtain the current second indoor temperature of the indoor space;

[0156] Step S106: Determine whether the second indoor temperature meets the first condition. The first condition includes that the temperature difference between the current temperature of the indoor space and the set temperature is less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference.

[0157] If the first condition is met, proceed to step S201; if the first condition is not met, return to step S104.

[0158] Step S201: Control the operation of the air conditioner so that the temperature difference between the temperature of each indoor area and the set temperature of the air conditioner is less than or equal to the first preset temperature difference.

[0159] Step S201 may include steps S21 and / or S22 as described above.

[0160] In this embodiment, by means of the above method, when the temperature of the indoor space deviates significantly from the set temperature, the target area is first locally adjusted; and when the temperature of the indoor space deviates significantly from the set temperature, the global temperature is adjusted, thereby further improving indoor comfort.

[0161] In other embodiments, after the target heat exchange mode is started, step S104 may be executed without detecting the temperature of the indoor space, and the control mode of the air conditioner may be selected based on whether the detected temperature of the indoor space meets the first condition after step S104.
