[0024] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, the embodiment of the utility model is described in detail below.
[0026] The present invention provides a heat pump system control circuit. Figure 1As shown, it includes: a centralized control panel 12, a controller 11 connected to the centralized control panel 12, and multiple thermostats. Among them, the thermostat is an AC24V thermostat. For the sake of convenience, three thermostats are used as an example. Among them, the three thermostats are respectively a first thermostat 131, a second thermostat 132, and a third thermostat 133; in addition, the heat pump system also includes multiple air-conditioning terminals 2 and a heating device 3. Each thermostat is also connected to a corresponding air-conditioning terminal, such as a first air-conditioning terminal 21 connected to the first thermostat 131, a second air-conditioning terminal 22 connected to the second thermostat 132, and a third air-conditioning terminal 23 connected to the third thermostat 133; the centralized control panel 12 is also connected to the heating device 3 of the heat pump system. The specific number of thermostats and the number of air-conditioning terminals can be set according to actual conditions.
[0027] Specifically, the thermostat is used to obtain demand parameters, generate air conditioning demand based on the demand parameters and the actual ambient temperature, and send the air conditioning demand to the centralized control panel 12; wherein the demand parameters include the air conditioning mode and the target temperature, and the air conditioning demand includes multiple switch control signals. In actual application, the user can set the operating mode of the corresponding air conditioning terminal, i.e., the air conditioning mode, by operating the thermostat panel. The air conditioning modes here include, but are not limited to, heating mode, cooling mode, and dehumidification mode. In addition, the target temperature corresponding to the air conditioning mode can also be set. After the thermostat obtains the air conditioning mode and target temperature, it can output the air conditioning demand including multiple switch control signals based on the current actual ambient temperature, air conditioning mode, and target temperature. The switch control signals are used to control multiple components of the heat pump system to achieve the air conditioning mode and target temperature. The multiple components include, but are not limited to, compressors, electric heaters, fans, and four-way valves, etc., and can be set according to actual conditions.
[0028] In addition, the control panel 12 is used to obtain the air conditioning demand and / or the heating demand corresponding to the heating device, and send the air conditioning demand and / or heating demand to the controller 11; the controller 11 is used to obtain the air conditioning demand and / or heating demand, and control the outdoor device of the heat pump system according to the air conditioning demand and / or heating demand.
[0029] Therefore, the above-mentioned heat pump system control circuit adds a centralized control board 12 between the controller 11 and multiple thermostats, and through the centralized control board 12, not only the controller 11 controls multiple AC24V thermostats, but also summarizes the air-conditioning demands sent by multiple thermostats and the heating demands corresponding to the heating devices, and sends the air-conditioning demands and heating demands to the controller 11, so that the controller 11 controls the external device, meets the user's air-conditioning demands and heating demands, realizes a multi-zone control scenario, and improves the user experience.
[0030] In one embodiment, the centralized control board includes a plurality of temperature control units, and each temperature control unit is connected to a corresponding temperature controller.
[0031] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, three temperature control units are shown: ZONE1, ZONE2 and ZONE3; among them, ZONE1 is connected to the first thermostat 131, similarly, ZONE2 is connected to the second thermostat 132, and ZONE3 is connected to the third thermostat 133, so that the control board 12 is connected to the corresponding thermostat through different temperature control units, which is convenient for separate control of the connected thermostats according to the temperature control units, ensuring the control accuracy of multiple AC24V thermostats, thereby ensuring the control accuracy of the heat pump system and improving the user's comfort.
[0032] It should be noted that in actual applications, the number of AC24V thermostats is consistent with the number of temperature control units, or the number of temperature control units is greater than the number of AC24V thermostats, so as to increase the number of AC24V thermostats in actual applications. The specific setting can be made according to actual conditions.
[0033] In one embodiment, the temperature control unit includes: a first interface, a second interface, a third interface and a fourth interface, and the temperature controller includes: a first compressor gear interface, a second compressor gear interface, a four-way valve switch interface and a fault interface; wherein the first interface is connected to the first compressor gear interface, the second interface is connected to the second compressor gear interface, the third interface is connected to the four-way valve switch interface, and the fourth interface is connected to the fault interface.
[0034] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, each thermostat includes a first compressor gear interface Y1, a second compressor gear interface Y2, a four-way valve switch interface O / B and a fault interface L; similarly, in the temperature control unit, corresponding interfaces Y1, Y2, O / B and L are also provided. For the sake of convenience, the corresponding interface Y1 in each temperature control unit is referred to as the first interface, and the first interface is connected to the first compressor gear interface Y1 in the corresponding thermostat; similarly, the corresponding interface Y2 in each temperature control unit is referred to as the second interface, and the second interface is connected to the second compressor gear interface Y2 in the corresponding thermostat; the corresponding interface O / B in each temperature control unit is referred to as the third interface, and the third interface is connected to the four-way valve switch interface O / B in the corresponding thermostat; the corresponding interface L in each temperature control unit is referred to as the fourth interface, and the fourth interface is connected to the fault interface L in the corresponding thermostat.
[0035] In actual applications, for example, for the first thermostat 131, both the first compressor gear interface Y1 and the second compressor gear interface Y2 are used to control the operating state of the compressor in the outdoor unit; wherein, the first compressor gear interface Y1 is used to control the compressor to operate at the first gear, and the second compressor gear interface Y2 is used to control the compressor to operate at the second gear. For example, when the user selects the first compressor gear interface Y1 through the thermostat panel, the on / off control signal for the compressor in the air conditioning demand is that the first compressor gear interface Y1 is turned on and the second compressor gear interface Y2 is turned off. The centralized control board 12 obtains the air conditioning demand and forwards it to the controller 11, so that the controller 11 controls the compressor to operate at the first gear according to the air conditioning demand.
[0036] In addition, for the first thermostat 131, the four-way valve switch interface O / B is used to control the switch state of the four-way valve in the outdoor device. The user sets the switch state of the four-way valve through the panel of the thermostat and conveys the corresponding switch control signal to the controller 11 along with the air-conditioning demand, so that the controller 11 controls the switch state of the four-way valve according to the air-conditioning demand.
[0037] Therefore, when each thermostat outputs an air conditioning demand, including an on / off control signal corresponding to the four-way valve and an on / off control signal corresponding to the compressor gear position, to the centralized control board 12, the centralized control board 12 transmits the air conditioning demand to the controller 11, which controls the compressor and four-way valve in the external unit according to the air conditioning demand to implement the user-set air conditioning mode, achieve the corresponding target temperature, and meet the user's air conditioning demand. For example, for the first thermostat 131 in a certain area, the on / off control signal set by the user through its panel is shown in Table 1 below:
[0038] Table 1
[0039]
[0040] According to Table 1 above, when at least one of the first compressor gear interface Y1 and the second compressor gear interface Y2 is opened and the four-way valve is closed, the corresponding first air-conditioning terminal 21 operates in cooling mode; when at least one of the first compressor gear interface Y1 and the second compressor gear interface Y2 is opened and the four-way valve is opened, the corresponding first air-conditioning terminal 21 operates in heating mode; when both the first compressor gear interface Y1 and the second compressor gear interface Y2 are closed, the corresponding first air-conditioning terminal 21 is controlled to shut down.
[0041] In addition, for each thermostat, the fault interface L can also be called the fault input interface. When there is a fault in the heat pump system, the control board 12 transmits the fault signal to the fault interface L of the thermostat via the fourth interface of the corresponding temperature control unit. The thermostat will display the corresponding fault so that the user can promptly grasp the fault information of the heat pump system and maintain the heat pump system in a timely manner.
[0042] Among them, for the air conditioning demands sent by multiple thermostats respectively, the centralized control board 12 forwards the multiple air conditioning demands to the controller 11; the controller 11 analyzes the multiple air conditioning demands. If there is a mode conflict, such as one of the air conditioning modes is heating mode and the other two air conditioning modes are cooling mode, because the operation of the outdoor unit can only meet one air conditioning mode, at this time, the controller 11 determines that a mode conflict fault has occurred and sends the corresponding mode conflict fault signal to the centralized control board 12. After the centralized control board 12 obtains the mode conflict fault signal, if the air conditioning mode sent by the first thermostat 131 is different from the air conditioning mode sent by the other two thermostats, at this time, the centralized control board 12 sends the mode conflict fault signal to the fault interface L of the first thermostat 131 through the fourth interface L of the first temperature control unit ZONE1, so that the first thermostat 131 displays the mode conflict fault signal, which is convenient for the user to perform maintenance in time.
[0043] Furthermore, when the controller 11 fails (such as failing to start, etc.) or the outdoor device fails (such as failing to start or operating abnormally), the controller 11 generates a device fault signal and sends the device fault signal to the centralized control board 12; at this time, the centralized control board 12 sends the device fault signal to the corresponding thermostats through multiple temperature control units, such as sending the device fault signal to the fault interface L of the first thermostat 131 through the fourth interface L of the first temperature control unit ZONE1, sending the device fault signal to the fault interface L of the second thermostat 132 through the fourth interface L of the second temperature control unit ZONE2, and sending the device fault signal to the fault interface L of the third thermostat 133 through the fourth interface L of the third temperature control unit ZONE3, so that all three thermostats display the device fault signal, which is convenient for users to perform equipment maintenance on the heat pump system in a timely manner.
[0044] In particular, when the centralized control board 12 cannot communicate with the controller 11, the centralized control board 12 also generates a communication fault signal and sends the communication fault signal to the corresponding thermostats through multiple temperature control units for display, so that the user can maintain the heat pump system in time.
[0045] In one embodiment, the thermostat further includes: a first electric heating gear switch and a second electric heating gear switch; wherein the first electric heating gear switch and the second electric heating gear switch are both connected to the electric heating in the corresponding air-conditioning terminal.
[0046] For example, Figure 1 As shown, a first electric heating gear switch W1 and a second electric heating gear switch W2 are also provided in the first thermostat 131; wherein, the first electric heating gear switch W1 and the second electric heating gear switch W2 are both used to control the operating state of the electric heating, such as the first electric heating gear switch W1 is used to control the electric heating to operate according to the first gear, and the second electric heating gear switch W2 is used to control the electric heating to operate according to the second gear. The user can realize the operating state control of the electric heating in the corresponding first air-conditioning terminal 21 by operating the first electric heating gear switch W1 and the second electric heating gear switch W2 on the panel of the first thermostat 131. The specific operating process of the electric heating can refer to the existing technology, and the embodiment of the utility model will not be described in detail here.
[0047] In one embodiment, the thermostat further includes a fan switch interface; wherein the fan switch interfaces are all connected to corresponding air conditioning terminals.
[0048] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the first thermostat 131 is also provided with a fan switch interface G for controlling the operating status of the fan in the first air conditioning terminal 21. In actual application, the user can operate the fan switch interface G through the panel of the first thermostat 131 to realize the operating status of the fan in the first air conditioning terminal 21 in the area. In addition, each thermostat is also provided with a dehumidification interface DH. For example, for the first thermostat 131, when the user operates the dehumidification interface DH through the panel of the first thermostat 131, the first air conditioning terminal 21 in the area can be dehumidified. In addition, the first thermostat 131 is also provided with a power supply interface R and a power common terminal interface C. Since the thermostat is an AC24V thermostat, the power supply interface R can also be called an AC24V power supply interface, and the power common terminal interface C can also be called an AC24V power common terminal interface. The power supply of the first thermostat 131 is realized through the power supply interface R and the power common terminal interface C to ensure its normal operation.
[0049] It should be noted that the interface functions of the second thermostat 132 and the third thermostat 133 may refer to the first thermostat 131 , and will not be described in detail in this embodiment of the present invention.
[0050] In one embodiment, the centralized control board further includes a plurality of water pump output interfaces, and the heat pump system further includes a plurality of water pumps; wherein each water pump output interface is connected to a corresponding water pump.
[0051] Specifically, if Figure 1As shown, the control panel 12 also includes multiple water pump output interfaces, such as the water pump output interface ZONE1 PUMP corresponding to the temperature control unit ZONE1. In actual applications, the water pump output interface ZONE1 PUMP is connected to the water pump in the area where the first thermostat 131 corresponding to the temperature control unit ZONE1 is located, and is used to control the on / off state of the water pump. For example, when the first compressor gear interface Y1 or the second compressor gear interface Y2 of the first thermostat 131 corresponding to the temperature control unit ZONE1 is in the ON state, the control panel 12 controls the corresponding water pump to turn on through the water pump output interface ZONE1 PUMP; when the first compressor gear interface Y1 and the second compressor gear interface Y2 are both in the OFF state, the control panel 12 controls the corresponding water pump to turn off through the water pump output interface ZONE1 PUMP.
[0052] Similarly, the water pump output interface ZONE2 PUMP corresponding to the temperature control unit ZONE2 is used to connect to the water pump in the area where the second temperature controller 132 corresponding to the temperature control unit ZONE2 is located, and to control the on / off status of the water pump; the water pump output interface ZONE3 PUMP corresponding to the temperature control unit ZONE3 is used to connect to the water pump in the area where the third temperature controller 133 corresponding to the temperature control unit ZONE3 is located, and to control the on / off status of the water pump.
[0053] In addition, the multiple water pump output interfaces also include PUMP1 and PUMP2, which are used to control the water pumps connected thereto in the heat pump system. It should be noted that the number of water pump output interfaces should be consistent with the number of water pumps.
[0054] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the centralized control panel 12 also includes a heating unit ZONE4, which is connected to the heating device 3. In actual use, the heating unit ZONE4 monitors the heating demand of the heating device 3 via port X and forwards the heating demand to the controller 11, which controls the external device based on the heating demand to meet the user's heating demand. The specific process of operating the external device to meet the heating demand can be referred to in the prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment of the utility model.
[0055] In one embodiment, the controller includes an external machine board and a water cube board; wherein the water cube board is connected to the centralized control board, the external machine board is connected to the external device, and the water cube board is connected to the external machine board. Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the controller 11 includes an external machine board 111 and a water cube board 112. The water cube board 112 is connected to the central control board 12, and the external machine board 111 is connected to the external machine device ( Figure 1 (not shown) are connected, and the external machine board 111 and the water cube board 112 communicate with each other.
[0056] Among them, the water cube board 112 can also be called the main board. In actual application, the water cube board 112 obtains various air-conditioning demands and / or heating demands forwarded by the central control board 12, and generates an outdoor unit control signal according to the air-conditioning demands and / or heating demands, and sends the outdoor unit control signal to the outdoor unit board 111, so that the outdoor unit board 111 controls the outdoor unit device according to the outdoor unit control signal to meet the user's air-conditioning demands and / or heating demands.
[0057] In addition, when an equipment failure occurs in the outdoor unit, the outdoor unit board 111 will also feed back the fault information to the water cube board 112, so that the water cube board 112 generates an equipment failure signal and sends the equipment failure signal to the centralized control board 12, so that the centralized control board 12 can send the equipment failure signal to the corresponding thermostat for display through the temperature control unit.
[0058] Furthermore, when a conflict occurs between multiple air conditioning modes, the water cube panel 112 generates a mode conflict fault signal and transmits it to the centralized control panel 12. The centralized control panel 12 then transmits the mode conflict fault signal to the corresponding thermostat via the temperature control unit for display, facilitating timely maintenance of the heat pump system. Therefore, in practical applications, the water cube panel 112 and the centralized control panel 12 can together form the water module of the heat pump system. The specific functions of the water module can be referenced in the prior art and will not be further described in detail in the present embodiment.
[0059] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown, the controller 11 also includes a wired controller 113, which is connected to the water cube panel 112. A wired controller interface M is provided in the water cube panel 112, and the wired controller 113 is connected to the water cube panel 112 via the wired controller interface M. The specific functions of the wired controller 113 can be referred to in the prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment of the present invention.
[0060] It should be noted that in Figure 1 In the figure, interface A and interface B are used to represent mutual communication interfaces. For example, the water cube board 112 and the centralized control board 12 realize two-way communication through interface A and interface B. For example, the centralized control board 12 forwards the air conditioning demand and / or heating demand to the water cube board 112 through interface A, and the water cube board 112 sends the fault signal to the centralized control board 12 through interface B; or, for the outdoor machine board 111 and the water cube board 112, the water cube board 112 sends the outdoor machine control signal to the outdoor machine board 111 through interface A, and the outdoor machine board 111 sends the status detection of the outdoor machine device to the water cube board 112 through interface B, etc. The specific communication process can be set according to actual conditions.
[0061] In summary, the heat pump system control circuit provided by the embodiment of the present invention adds a centralized control board between the controller and multiple thermostats, and through the centralized control board not only realizes the controller's control of multiple AC24V thermostats, but also summarizes the air-conditioning demands sent by multiple thermostats and the heating demands corresponding to the heating devices, and sends the air-conditioning demands and heating demands to the controller so that the controller controls the external device, thereby meeting the user's air-conditioning demands and heating demands, realizing a multi-zone control scenario, and improving the user experience.
[0062] Furthermore, based on the above-mentioned heat pump system control circuit, an embodiment of the present invention also provides a heat pump system, which includes: an air-conditioning terminal, a heating device, an outdoor device and the above-mentioned heat pump system control circuit; wherein the air-conditioning terminal, the heating device and the outdoor device are all connected to the heat pump system control circuit.
[0063] Specifically, the air-conditioning terminal is connected to the AC24V thermostat in the heat pump system control circuit, the heating device is connected to the central control board in the heat pump system control circuit, and the outdoor unit is connected to the controller in the heat pump system control circuit. By adding a central control board to the above-mentioned heat pump system control circuit, not only the adaptation of the AC24V thermostat and controller in the heat pump system is realized, enriching the application scenarios of the heat pump system, but also the air-conditioning demands sent by multiple thermostats and the heating demands corresponding to the heating devices are summarized, and the air-conditioning demands and heating demands are sent to the controller so that the controller controls the outdoor unit, meeting the user's air-conditioning and heating demands, realizing multi-zone control scenarios, and improving user experience; in addition, when a device failure or mode conflict occurs in the heat pump system, the central control board will send the fault signal to the corresponding thermostat through the temperature control unit for display, which is convenient for users to maintain the heat pump system in time and ensure the service life of the heat pump system.
