[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0018] The utility model embodiment discloses a novel multifunctional air conditioner controller. Figure 1-3A new multifunctional air conditioner controller includes an MCU main control chip, a group of wireless communication circuits, a group of power control circuits, a group of infrared transceiver circuits, a group of power collection circuits and a group of clock circuits. The wireless communication circuit, power control circuit, infrared transceiver circuit, power collection circuit and clock circuit are all integrated into the interior of the 86-type socket with the MCU main control chip as the carrier;

[0019] Reference Figure 1 The MCU main control chip is an ST series high-performance microprocessor, which controls the operation of the entire device according to the established program.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solutions, ST series microprocessors usually use advanced processor architecture and process technology, have high computing performance and processing capabilities, and can quickly respond to and process various instructions.

[0021] Reference Figure 1 ,The wireless communication circuit is composed of the ESP8266 module, which is used to connect to the WIFI wireless network to remotely ,operate the device.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the ESP8266 module can obtain control instructions on the Internet and pass the instructions to the MCU main control chip, thereby realizing remote control of the device.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 The power control circuit controls the on and off of the relay by the PC13 pin of the MCU to control the on and off of the air conditioner power supply, which can support 16A-40A load.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the air conditioner power supply can be controlled. At the same time, the interruption capability of the relay supports 16A-40A load, has a strong carrying capacity, and ensures the reliability and stability of the equipment.

[0025] Reference Figure 2 The infrared transmitting and receiving circuit is composed of an IRM3638T infrared receiving circuit and a transistor infrared transmitting circuit. The infrared receiving circuit is used to receive and learn the air conditioner remote control commands, and identify and store the commands to the MCU main control chip through photoelectric conversion. The infrared transmitting circuit is used to transmit the air conditioner remote control commands. The MCU main control chip converts the remote control commands into electro-optical commands through the infrared transmitting circuit and transmits the commands to realize the control of the air conditioner soft on and off.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the infrared receiving circuit converts the received infrared signal into an electrical signal through photoelectric conversion, and transmits it to the MCU main control chip for identification and storage of instructions, so that the air conditioner remote control instructions can be learned and stored, providing support for subsequent transmission instructions. The infrared transmitting circuit enables the system to simulate real remote control instructions and realize remote control of the air conditioner.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 The power acquisition circuit is composed of the HLW8032 power acquisition chip, which can realize the real-time acquisition of the voltage, current and power parameters of the air conditioner power supply, so that the power consumption of the air conditioner can be identified.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the voltage, current and other parameters of the air conditioner in its working state can be obtained in real time when the air conditioner is running, so the power consumption and electric energy consumption of the air conditioner can be calculated.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 The clock circuit is a high-precision clock circuit using SD3078. 10 groups of timers can be configured through software to control the air conditioner on a regular basis. It is also equipped with a backup capacitor battery that can support 6 days of power outage timing.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, a flexible timing control function can be provided for the air conditioner, and normal operation can be maintained even in the event of a power outage.

[0031] Working principle: When using the utility model, a surface-mounted 86-type 16A socket is selected and an isolated power module is adopted. This design scheme is multifunctional and intelligent. The socket directly draws power, and the power control mode includes automatic mode, keep open and keep closed working modes;

[0032] In the keep-on mode, the MCU main control chip controls the power control circuit to work, the relay is always connected, the socket is always powered, and can be used as an original socket. At this time, if the air conditioner on / off command is learned, the user can turn the air conditioner on and off through the mobile phone remote control to achieve remote control;

[0033] In the keep-off mode, the MCU main control chip controls the power control circuit, the relay remains disconnected, and the socket cannot be used without power. This design can effectively save energy and cut off the power supply of the socket when it is not needed, improving safety and energy saving effects;

[0034] In automatic mode, the socket works automatically according to the timer set in the program. It can realize the operation of powering on first and then turning on the infrared, or turning off the infrared first and then cutting off the power. At the same time, the infrared command power on and off can also be controlled separately from the power on and off. This design fully takes into account the needs of users and provides a more flexible operation method, making the control of the air conditioner more intelligent and convenient.

[0035] When in use, the utility model integrates functions such as automatic start of air conditioner upon incoming call, timed power on and off of air conditioner, remote control power on and off of air conditioner, power control of air conditioner, and working power detection of air conditioner into the interior with an 86-type socket, thereby solving the problem of integration of the socket, automatic start of air conditioner upon incoming call, timing, remote control, and power detection functions. It not only has the original functions of the socket, but also expands and enriches other functions of the socket, thereby improving the intelligence of the air conditioner, reducing the management intensity of air conditioner users, having a certain effect of energy saving and consumption reduction, and having low cost and easy installation, with good economic benefits.
