Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of air conditioning, and in particular to an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] When the air conditioner is running, air will enter the air conditioner from the air inlet, and then be blown out from the air outlet after heat exchange through the heat exchanger, thus achieving heat exchange. The air inlet of the air conditioner is generally set directly above the air conditioner, which makes the heat exchanger in the air conditioner easy to accumulate dust, and the heat exchanger is easy to breed bacteria in a high temperature and high humidity environment, making the air blown out of the air outlet have a musty smell, affecting the user experience and health.

[0003] In the related art, in order to reduce the dust from entering the air inlet of the air conditioner, an air inlet baffle assembly is often provided at the air inlet of the air conditioner. When the air conditioner is idle, the air inlet baffle assembly is closed to prevent dust from entering the air conditioner through the air inlet; when the air conditioner is working, the air inlet baffle assembly is opened to expose the air inlet. However, when the air conditioner is idle, although the air inlet baffle assembly can prevent dust from entering the air conditioner by closing the air inlet, dust will accumulate on the air inlet baffle assembly. When the air conditioner is started, the wind force of the air inlet will blow the dust and other foreign objects attached to the surface of the air inlet baffle assembly into the air conditioner. That is, after the air inlet baffle assembly is opened, the dust will fall into the air conditioner again, which cannot fundamentally play the role of dust prevention for the air conditioner.

[0034] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0036] The embodiment of the present application provides an air conditioner, which is used to adjust the temperature, humidity, etc. of the environment. The air conditioner can be a cooling-only air conditioner or a cooling-heating dual-purpose air conditioner, and the air conditioner can be a wall-mounted air conditioner, a cabinet air conditioner, or a window air conditioner, etc., which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. It should be noted that the air conditioner can be an integrated air conditioner structure or a separated air conditioner structure, wherein the separated air conditioner structure includes an indoor unit and an outdoor unit, and the integrated air conditioner structure integrates all system components in an integral chassis.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present application, the air conditioner comprises: an air conditioner body and a suspension plate assembly, wherein the suspension plate assembly is used to cooperate with the air inlet on the air conditioner body to close or open the air inlet. Figure 1As shown, the air conditioner body includes a shell 100 and a first main control board (not shown in the figure) located on the shell 100, the shell is provided with an air inlet 101, and the air conditioner body also includes a magnetic force generating device 200 arranged at the air inlet 101, and the magnetic force generating device 200 is electrically connected to the first main control board. The suspension board assembly includes a suspension board 400 and a second main control board (not shown in the figure) arranged on the suspension board 400, and a magnetic element 600. Among them, the first main control board is communicatively connected with the second main control board, the magnetic element 600 on the suspension board 400 is arranged opposite to the magnetic force generating device 200, and the first main control board is used to control the power-on state of the magnetic force generating device 200, so that the suspension board assembly covers the air inlet 101 or suspends above the air inlet 101.

[0038] Exemplarily, if the first main control board controls the magnetic force generating device 200 to be powered on, the magnetic force generating device 200 can generate a force that repulses the magnetic element 600, so that the suspension plate assembly is suspended at a set height above the air inlet 101, thereby opening the air inlet 101; if the first main control board controls the magnetic force generating device 200 to be powered off, the force that repulses the magnetic element 600 generated by the magnetic force generating device 200 will gradually disappear, causing the suspension plate assembly to descend and cover the air inlet 101, thereby closing the air inlet 101.

[0039] It can be understood that, due to the introduction of the suspension plate assembly that cooperates with the air inlet 101 of the air conditioner, based on the control of the power-on state of the magnetic force generating device 200, it is possible to switch between the suspension plate assembly floating above the air inlet 101 when the air conditioner is running and covering the air inlet 101 when the air conditioner is stopped. In this way, dust and other foreign objects when the air conditioner is idle can be prevented from entering the interior of the air conditioner, and the wind force of the air inlet 101 after the air conditioner is started can be prevented from bringing dust and other foreign objects blocked outside into the interior of the air conditioner, thereby effectively improving the dust-proof effect of the air conditioner.

[0040] Here, the magnetic force generating device 200 can be an electromagnet, that is, a device that generates electromagnetism based on power supply, for example, a conductive coil matching its power is wound around the outside of the iron core, and the conductive coil becomes magnetic like a magnet after power supply. It should be noted that the electromagnet has the characteristics of generating magnetism when power is supplied and disappearing magnetism after power is cut off. Based on the above characteristics of the electromagnet, it can cooperate with the magnetic element 600 disposed on the suspension board 400 to realize the displacement switching of the suspension board assembly by using the effect of mutually repelling magnetic force.

[0041] For example, there are multiple magnetic force generating devices 200, which are arranged at intervals along the outer periphery of the air inlet 101. The number of magnetic elements 600 arranged on the suspension board 400 is the same as the number of magnetic force generating devices 200, and the two are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. In this way, based on multiple sets of paired magnetic force generating devices 200 and magnetic elements 600, stable switching control of the suspension board assembly between opening the air inlet 101 and closing the air inlet 101 can be achieved.

[0042] In an application example, Figure 1 As shown, the air inlet 101 is located at the top of the housing 100 and is rectangular, the suspension board 400 is a rectangular structure with an area larger than the air inlet 101, and four magnetic force generating devices 200 are arranged at the top of the housing 100 and at the four corners of the rectangle. In the power-on state, the four magnetic force generating devices 200 can cooperate with the four magnetic elements 600 arranged oppositely on the suspension board 400 to generate an upward force at the four corners of the suspension board 400, so that the suspension board 400 is stably suspended at a set height above the air inlet 101. Exemplarily, the set height can be controlled based on the magnetic force of the electromagnet, for example, it can be between 30 mm (millimeter) and 50 mm, thereby meeting the air intake demand of the air inlet 101 when the air conditioner is working.

[0043] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the suspension board assembly further includes a light emitting element 700 disposed on the suspension board 400 . The light emitting element 700 is electrically connected to the second main control board. The second main control board is used to control the light emitting state of the light emitting element 700 .

[0044] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application introduces the light-emitting element 700, which can achieve an auxiliary effect of nighttime lighting based on the suspension board assembly, thereby enriching the functional design of the suspension board assembly.

[0045] Exemplarily, the second main control board is used to receive indication information from the first main control board, and the second main control board controls the light-emitting state of the light-emitting element based on the indication information; wherein the indication information is used to indicate the current operating state of the air conditioner, and the light-emitting state is partitioned based on one or more of the following: the light-emitting color of the light-emitting element, the light-emitting quantity of the light-emitting element, and the light-emitting frequency of the light-emitting element.

[0046] For example, the light emitting element 700 may be an annular light strip arranged along the circumference of the suspension board 400 , and the light emitting state may be enriched based on the annular light strip to enhance the human-computer interaction experience.

[0047] It should be noted that the lighting state of the embodiment of the present application can be distinguished based on one of the above-mentioned lighting color, lighting quantity and lighting frequency, and can also be distinguished based on a combination of the above-mentioned multiple types. For example, in an application example, if the second main control board determines that the air conditioner is in a cooling operation state based on the indication information, it controls the light-emitting element 700 to display a blue light. If it is determined that the air conditioner is in a heating operation state, it controls the light-emitting element 700 to display a yellow light. In this way, the current operating state of the air conditioner can be indicated based on the lighting state of the light-emitting element 700 of the suspension board 400, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0048] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the first main control board 300 includes a first processor 301 and a first wireless transceiver circuit 302, and the second main control board 500 includes a second processor 501 and a second wireless transceiver circuit 502; wherein the first wireless transceiver circuit 302 is used to send the first information from the first processor 301 to the second wireless transceiver circuit 502 and receive the second information from the second processor 501 and transmit the second information to the first processor 301, and the second wireless transceiver circuit 502 is used to send the second information from the second processor 501 to the first wireless transceiver circuit 302 and receive the first information from the first processor 301 and transmit the first information to the second processor 501.

[0049] Exemplarily, both the first wireless transceiver circuit 302 and the second wireless transceiver circuit 502 use infrared transceiver circuits. It should be noted that the infrared transceiver circuit transmits information based on the characteristics of infrared light. The sender transmits infrared light signals through a transmitter, and the receiver receives these signals through a receiver and converts them into electrical signals for processing. In practical applications, the commonly used infrared transmitter is an infrared diode, and the infrared receiver is a photoresistor or photodiode that receives infrared light. In the embodiment of the present application, considering that the first wireless transceiver circuit 302 in the first main control board and the second wireless transceiver circuit 502 in the second main control board can meet the layout requirements of the relative setting, the use of infrared transceiver circuits can meet the requirements of communication reliability while saving costs.

[0050] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the second main control board 500 also includes a voice recognition circuit 507 connected to the second processor 501. The second processor 501 is used to obtain the voice instructions input by the user based on the voice recognition circuit 507, and send the obtained voice instructions to the first processor 301 via the second wireless transceiver circuit 502.

[0051] Exemplarily, the voice recognition circuit 507 can collect the user's voice signal, and the second processor 501 can obtain the voice command input by the user based on the voice signal, and send the voice command to the first wireless transceiver circuit 302 via the second wireless transceiver circuit 502, and the first wireless transceiver circuit 302 passes it to the first processor 301. The user's voice recognition can be realized and the recognized voice command can be passed to the first processor 301 of the first main control board 300. In this way, the function of the suspension board component can be further enriched. For example, the user's need to control the air conditioner based on voice can be realized based on the suspension board component. The voice command may include but is not limited to: the power-on command and the power-off command of the air conditioner.

[0052] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the first main control board 300 also includes a wireless charging transmitting circuit 303 connected to the first processor 301, and the second main control board 500 also includes a wireless charging receiving circuit 503 and a battery management circuit 504 connected to the second processor 501; wherein the battery management circuit 504 is used to detect the power status of the battery supplying power to the second main control board 500, and the second processor 501 is also used to generate a charging control instruction based on the power status, and send the charging control instruction to the first processor 301 via the second wireless transceiver circuit 502, the wireless charging transmitting circuit 303 is controlled by the first processor 301 based on the charging control instruction, and the wireless charging receiving circuit 503 is used to receive the electric energy output by the wireless charging transmitting circuit 303 and store the electric energy into the battery via the battery management circuit 504.

[0053] It should be noted that the battery management circuit 504 can detect the SOC (State of Charge) value of the battery, and determine whether to generate a charging control instruction based on the SOC value and a set threshold value. The charging control instruction includes a charging start instruction and a charging end instruction. For example, if it is determined that the detected SOC value is less than or equal to the lower limit setting value, the second processor 501 generates a charging start instruction and sends the charging start instruction to the first processor 301 via the second wireless transceiver circuit 502; if it is determined that the detected SOC value is greater than or equal to the upper limit setting value, the second processor 501 generates a charging end instruction and sends the charging end instruction to the first processor 301 via the second wireless transceiver circuit 502. The first processor 301 can start the wireless charging transmitting circuit 303 based on the charging start instruction, so that the wireless charging receiving circuit 503 receives the electric energy output by the wireless charging transmitting circuit 303, and stores the electric energy into the battery that supplies power to the second main control board 500 through the battery management circuit 504; the first processor 301 can also shut down the wireless charging transmitting circuit 303 based on the charging end instruction, thereby ending the wireless charging of the battery.

[0054] Here, the wireless charging transmission circuit 303 and the wireless charging receiving circuit 503 can wirelessly transmit electric energy based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, wherein the wireless charging transmission circuit 303 can be a transmitting end coil, which sends an electromagnetic signal to the outside world under the action of electric power, and the wireless charging receiving circuit 503 can be a receiving end coil, which receives the electromagnetic signal and converts it into electric current, thereby achieving the purpose of wireless charging. In this way, non-contact charging of the battery on the suspension board that powers the second main control board can be realized, meeting the power supply requirements of the electrical devices on the suspension board.

[0055] It is understandable that the power supply state of the magnetic generator 200 can be switched and controlled by the first processor 301 based on the control command of the air conditioner. For example, the first processor 301 can receive the remote control command of the air conditioner, determine that the air conditioner needs to be turned on, and then supply power to the magnetic generator 200, so that the suspension board assembly is suspended above the air inlet, and the air inlet is opened; or when it is determined that the air conditioner needs to be turned off, the power supply of the magnetic generator 200 is switched, so that the suspension board assembly covers the air inlet and closes the air inlet. In other examples, the first processor 301 can also receive the voice command of the user obtained by the second processor 501, and control the power supply state of the magnetic generator 200 based on the voice command.

[0056] It is understandable that if Figure 2 As shown, the second main control board 500 also includes a light control circuit 505 connected to the second processor 501. The second processor 501 can control the light state of the light-emitting element 700 based on the light control circuit 505, that is, control at least one of the light color, light quantity and light frequency of the light-emitting element 700.

[0057] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the second main control board 500 also includes a voice output circuit 506 connected to the second processor 501. The voice output circuit 506 can voice output the information obtained by the second processor 501, for example, voice output the instruction information sent by the first processor 301 and / or voice output the voice instructions recognized by itself, thereby further enhancing the human-computer interaction experience.

[0058] In an application example, Figure 3As shown, the suspension board 400 includes a base plate 401 and a cover plate 402. A light-emitting element 700 is arranged on the outer peripheral edge of the base plate 401, and the light-emitting element 700 can be a ring light strip. The upper surface of the base plate 401 is concave to form a housing cavity for accommodating the second main control board. For example, the aforementioned second processor 501, the second wireless transceiver circuit 502, the wireless charging receiving circuit 503, the battery management circuit 504, the voice output circuit 506 and the voice recognition circuit 507 are arranged in the housing cavity. The cover plate 402 is fixedly connected to the base plate 401, for example, by snap connection or screw fixed connection, and a magnetic element 600 corresponding to the magnetic force generating device 200 is arranged on the cover plate 402. It should be noted that the magnetic element 600 is arranged on the cover plate 402, so that a reasonable distance can be maintained with the second main control board, thereby effectively reducing the interference of the magnetic element 600 with the electronic components on the second main control board.

[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, the present application also provides a dust prevention control method based on the above air conditioner, the method comprising:

[0060] In response to a power-on instruction for turning on the air conditioner, the first main control board controls the air conditioner to start running and controls the magnetic force generating device to be powered on, so that the suspension plate assembly is suspended above the air inlet.

[0061] It should be noted that when the air conditioner is in standby or off mode, the magnetic generating device is powered off and the suspension plate assembly covers the air inlet of the air conditioner, thereby preventing dust from falling into the air conditioner and avoiding dust accumulation in the heat exchanger, which affects the air quality of the air conditioner.

[0062] Taking a split-type air conditioner as an example, the first main control board can be understood as the indoor main control board. In response to the power-on command, the indoor main control board can start the indoor main fan, communicate and interact with the outdoor main control board, and start the compressor and other components. In the embodiment of the present application, the indoor main control board also needs to control the power-on of the magnetic generator. Based on the magnetic force generated by the magnetic generator, a mutually repulsive force can be generated between the magnetic elements on the suspension board, so that the suspension board assembly is suspended at a set height above the air inlet, and the air inlet is opened; at this time, since the air inlet airflow is located below the suspension board assembly, it can effectively prevent the wind from bringing foreign objects such as dust blocked on the suspension board into the air conditioner, thereby effectively improving the dust-proof effect of the air conditioner.

[0063] Exemplarily, the method further includes:

[0064] In response to a shutdown instruction to shut down the air conditioner, the first main control board controls the air conditioner to stop running and controls the magnetic force generating device to be powered off, so that the suspension plate assembly covers the air inlet.

[0065] It can be understood that, in response to the shutdown command of the air conditioner, the first main control board, in addition to controlling the air conditioner to stop running, also needs to control the magnetic generating device to cut off the power, so that the suspension plate assembly descends and covers the air inlet, thereby closing the air inlet, which can prevent external dust from entering the interior of the air conditioner when the air conditioner is idle.

[0066] Exemplarily, if the second main control board includes a voice recognition circuit, the method further includes:

[0067] The second main control board obtains a power-on instruction or a power-off instruction based on the voice recognition circuit;

[0068] The second main control board sends the power-on instruction or the power-off instruction to the first main control board.

[0069] It should be noted that the voice recognition circuit can collect the user's voice signal, and the second processor in the second main control board can obtain the voice command input by the user based on the voice signal, and send the voice command to the first wireless transceiver circuit via the second wireless transceiver circuit, and the first wireless transceiver circuit passes it to the first processor of the first main control board. The user's voice recognition can be realized and the recognized voice command can be passed to the first processor of the first main control board. In this way, the function of the suspension board component can be further enriched. For example, the user's need to control the air conditioner based on voice can be realized based on the suspension board component. The voice command may include but is not limited to: the power on command and the power off command of the air conditioner.

[0070] Exemplarily, if the suspension board assembly further includes a light emitting element disposed on the suspension board, the method further includes:

[0071] The first main control board sends instruction information to the second main control board;

[0072] The second main control board controls the light-emitting state of the light-emitting element based on the indication information;

[0073] The indication information is used to indicate the current operating state of the air conditioner, and the lighting state is partitioned based on one or more of the following: the lighting color of the light-emitting element, the lighting quantity of the light-emitting element, and the lighting frequency of the light-emitting element.

[0074] In this way, based on the communication interaction between the first main control board and the second main control board, the second main control board can control the switching of the light-emitting state of the light-emitting element of the suspension board to indicate the current operating status of the air conditioner, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.

[0075] Exemplarily, if the first main control board includes a wireless charging transmission circuit, and the second main control board includes a wireless charging receiving circuit and a battery management circuit, the method further includes:

[0076] The second main control board sends a charging start instruction to the first main control board, and the first main control board starts the wireless charging transmission circuit based on the charging start instruction, and the wireless charging receiving circuit receives the electric energy output by the wireless charging transmission circuit and stores the electric energy in the battery that supplies power to the second main control board through the battery management circuit;

[0077] The second main control board sends a charging end instruction to the first main control board, and the first main control board turns off the wireless charging sending circuit based on the charging end instruction.

[0078] In this way, contactless charging of the storage battery on the suspension board that supplies power to the second main control board can be achieved, thereby meeting the power supply requirements of the electrical devices on the suspension board.

[0079] The dust prevention control method for an air conditioner is illustrated below with reference to an application example.

[0080] This application example takes a split-type air conditioner as an example, in which the suspension plate assembly is arranged in conjunction with the air inlet of the indoor unit. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the operation process of the suspension board in this application example includes:

[0081] Step 401, running a startup / shutdown detection program based on the suspension board.

[0082] Here, the suspension board component of the air conditioner can start the on / off detection program independently of the operating status of the air conditioner. That is, regardless of whether the air conditioner is in operation, the suspension board component can detect and identify the voice signal input by the user based on the on / off detection program, thereby improving the intelligent control level of the air conditioner.

[0083] Step 402, determine whether the user's power-on voice command is detected, if not, return to step 401, if yes, execute step 403.

[0084] Here, the hoverboard MCU (i.e., the aforementioned second processor) on the hoverboard can detect the voice signal input by the user based on the voice recognition circuit. If the user's power-on voice command is detected, step 403 is executed. If not, the air conditioner is maintained in standby mode and returns to step 401.

[0085] Step 403, in response to the voice command, the annular light strip flashes, and the suspension board MCU sends a first command to the indoor main control MCU through the infrared transceiver module.

[0086] Here, the suspension board MCU can respond to voice commands, drive the annular light strip to flash through the light control circuit, and send the first instruction to start up to the indoor main control MCU (i.e. the aforementioned first processor) through the infrared transceiver module (i.e. the aforementioned second wireless transceiver circuit).

[0087] Step 404, the indoor main control MCU turns on the indoor main fan, sends a second instruction to the outdoor main control board to turn on the compressor, and controls the magnetic generator to allow the suspension board to rise steadily.

[0088] Here, the indoor main control MCU turns on the indoor main fan, sends a second instruction to the outdoor main control board to turn on the compressor, and controls the magnetic generator (i.e. the aforementioned magnetic generating device) to power on, allowing the suspension board to rise steadily.

[0089] Step 405, the indoor main control MCU sends the current operating status of the air conditioner to the suspension board MCU through the infrared transceiver module.

[0090] Here, the indoor main control MCU sends indication information indicating the current operating state of the air conditioner to the suspension board MCU through the infrared transceiver module (ie, the aforementioned first wireless transceiver circuit).

[0091] Step 406, the MCU of the suspension board indicates the working status of the air conditioner through the annular light strip.

[0092] Here, the floating board MCU determines the working status of the air conditioner based on the received indication information and indicates it through the annular light strip. For example, in one example, when the air conditioner is operating in the cooling state, the annular light strip displays a blue light, and when the air conditioner is operating in the heating state, the annular light strip displays a yellow light.

[0093] Step 407 , determining whether a user's voice command to shut down the device is detected, if not, returning to step 406 , if yes, executing step 408 .

[0094] Step 408, in response to the voice command, the ring light flashes, and the suspension board MCU sends a third command to the indoor main control MCU through the infrared transceiver module.

[0095] It can be understood that if the suspension board MCU detects the user's shutdown voice command based on the voice recognition circuit, it can respond to the voice command, drive the annular light strip to flash through the light control circuit, and send a third command to the indoor main control MCU through the infrared transceiver module.

[0096] Step 409, the indoor main control MCU turns off the indoor main fan, sends a fourth instruction to the outdoor main control board to turn off the compressor, and controls the magnetic generator to allow the suspension board to descend smoothly.

[0097] Here, after receiving the third instruction instructing shutdown, the indoor main control MCU can turn off the indoor main fan and send the fourth instruction instructing shutdown to the outdoor main control board. The outdoor main control board will turn off the compressor and control the magnetic generator to cut off the power, allowing the suspension board to descend smoothly to close the air inlet.

[0098] Exemplarily, the suspension board operation process may also include:

[0099] Step 410, running the hoverboard battery charging program.

[0100] Here, the suspension board assembly of the air conditioner can also run a suspension board battery charging program. It should be noted that the program is implemented based on the aforementioned battery management circuit, wireless charging transmitting circuit and wireless charging receiving circuit.

[0101] Step 411, determine whether the battery power detected by the suspension board MCU is too low, if not, return to step 410, if yes, execute step 412.

[0102] Here, the MCU of the hoverboard can detect whether the battery power of the battery is too low (i.e., whether the detected SOC value is less than or equal to the lower limit setting value) based on the battery management circuit. If so, step 412 is executed; if not, return to step 410 to continue running the battery charging program of the hoverboard.

[0103] Step 412, the suspension board MCU sends a charging start instruction to the indoor main control MCU through the infrared transceiver module.

[0104] Step 413: the indoor main control MCU controls the wireless charging module to charge the battery of the suspension board.

[0105] Here, the indoor main control MCU can start the wireless charging transmitting circuit based on the charging start instruction, so that the wireless charging receiving circuit receives the electric energy output by the wireless charging transmitting circuit, and stores the electric energy into the battery through the battery management circuit, thereby realizing the charging control of the battery.

[0106] Step 414, determine whether the power detected by the suspension board MCU is full, if not, return to step 413, if yes, execute step 415.

[0107] Here, the MCU of the suspension board can detect whether the battery power of the battery is full based on the battery management circuit (that is, whether the detected SOC value is greater than or equal to the upper limit setting value). If so, step 415 is executed; if not, step 413 is returned to continue charging the battery.

[0108] Step 415, the suspension board MCU sends a stop charging instruction to the indoor main control MCU.

[0109] Step 416: the indoor main control MCU turns off the wireless charging module.

[0110] Here, the indoor main control MCU turns off the wireless charging transmission circuit based on the stop charging instruction (ie, the aforementioned charging end instruction), thereby ending the wireless charging of the battery.

[0111] In an exemplary embodiment, the first processor and the second processor of the air conditioner can be implemented by one or more application specific integrated circuits (ASIC), DSP, programmable logic device (PLD), complex programmable logic device (CPLD), field programmable gate array (FPGA), general processor, controller, microcontroller (MCU), microprocessor, or other electronic components to execute the aforementioned method.
