[0002] With the development of science and technology, air conditioning equipment has been more and more widely used. An air conditioner is a device that can adjust and control parameters such as the temperature and humidity of the indoor air in a building or structure.

[0003] In the related art, for the control of an air conditioner, generally an air conditioner remote control is used for remote control.

Detailed Embodiment

[0030] The following will Figure 1-2 further describe the present application in detail.

[0031] The embodiment of the present application discloses an air conditioner remote control device. Referring to Figure 1 , an air conditioner remote control device includes a wireless transmission module 2, a control module 1, and an infrared emission module 3. The wireless transmission module 2 is electrically connected to the control module 1, and the control module 1 is electrically connected to the infrared emission module 3.

[0032] Among them, the wireless transmission module 2 is a WIFI module. The control module 1 can select a single-chip microcomputer control chip.

[0033] The WIFI module is connected to the network. The user remotely sends a control signal through the network. The WIFI module wirelessly receives the control signal, and then the WIFI module sends the control signal to the control module 1. After receiving the control signal, the control module 1 controls the infrared emission module 3 to work, so that the infrared emission module 3 emits an infrared signal, thereby controlling the air conditioner. By using the WIFI module, it is possible to receive the control signal sent by the user through the network, thereby achieving the purpose of remotely controlling the air conditioner.
