Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of whole-house smart technology, and in particular to a relay control system between two heat sources. Background Technology
[0002] In widely used whole-house smart systems (including functions such as cooling, heating, and defrosting), a dual-heat-source smart system (or air conditioning system) is mainly composed of a unitary heat pump air conditioner outdoor unit (the first heat source), an indoor heat exchanger, a gas furnace indoor unit (the second heat source), and a thermostat. In daily operation, the smart system requires the thermostat, heat pump outdoor unit (i.e., unitary heat pump air conditioner outdoor unit), and gas furnace indoor unit to work together to achieve the corresponding functions. For example, the heating function requires both the heat pump outdoor unit and the gas furnace indoor unit to simultaneously receive the heat pump output signal from the thermostat (i.e., ...). Figure 1 Only when Y1 and Y2 in the formula can they work together to complete the heat pump heating mode.
[0003] However, based on the current wiring methods of thermostats, heat pump outdoor units, and gas furnace indoor units, such as... Figure 1 As shown in the diagram (the thermostat is Themostat, the outdoor unit is the heat pump outdoor unit, the indoor unit is the gas furnace indoor unit, R / C is the power supply, G represents fan control, W1 and W2 represent two-stage auxiliary heating, Y1 and Y2 represent two-stage heat pump output, O represents switching between heating and cooling modes, and Dh is the dehumidification control signal (this signal is defined by the controller)), both the outdoor unit and the indoor unit share the thermostat's signal, making signal filtering and allocation impossible. Therefore, when the thermostat's output signal malfunctions, the operating commands received by the outdoor unit and the indoor unit will be mismatched. For example, in the original defrost mode, the gas furnace indoor unit receives the W signal and the heat pump outdoor unit receives the YW signal. However, due to a misconnection of the signal lines, the gas furnace indoor unit receives the YW signal and the heat pump outdoor unit receives the YW signal. As a result, the defrost mode cannot be executed, and instead, the gas furnace indoor unit and the heat pump outdoor unit operate simultaneously. At this time, the heat pump outdoor unit will be affected by the gas furnace indoor unit, leading to abnormally high condensing pressure. This may cause the system to frequently trigger high-pressure protection, which may have an adverse effect on the life of the compressor or cause damage. Utility Model Content

[0050] This utility model proposes a preferred embodiment of a relay control system between two heat sources, such as... Figure 2 As shown, with the relay device 4 installed, the data signals distributed (or allocated) by the thermostat 1 to the gas furnace indoor unit 2 and the heat pump outdoor unit 3 will first pass through the relay device 4. At the same time, based on the operating mode standard of the heat pump outdoor unit 3, its feedback data signal will also first pass through the relay device 4. Thus, the mode signal allocation module 44 (such as interlocking, clamping, logic judgment and other circuit structures) adjusts the data signal of the thermostat 1 and the feedback signal of the heat pump outdoor unit (mainly playing a role in assisting confirmation) to generate specific mode signals (such as cooling mode data group, defrosting mode data group, heat pump heating mode data group, etc.) to avoid abnormal combination of mode signals caused by the sharing of signal lines. Finally, the adjusted mode signals are allocated to the gas furnace indoor unit 2 and the heat pump outdoor unit 3, thereby ensuring that the gas furnace indoor unit 2 and the heat pump outdoor unit 3 each receive the correct control commands and work together to complete the correct operation of the corresponding mode, extending the service life of the gas furnace indoor unit 2 and the heat pump outdoor unit 3.

[0072] In this embodiment, the logic for outputting the G signal is explained as follows:
[0073] (1) When there is a W1 or W2 signal, there is no G signal output;
[0074] (2) Condition 1: There are no W1 and W2 signals. Condition 2: If there are G, Y1 or Y2 signals, then there is a G signal output.
[0075] W1 signal output logic description: When there is a W1, W2 or W (i.e., OD_W_I) signal, the W1 signal will be output.
[0076] W2 signal output logic description: The W2 signal is output directly without any logical judgment.
[0077] Y1 signal output logic description:
[0078] (1) Condition 1: There is no W1 signal; Condition 2: There is a Y1 or Y2 signal, then there is a Y1 signal output.
[0079] (2) When there is a W1 signal, there is no Y1 signal output regardless of whether there is a Y1 or Y2 signal.
[0080] Y2 signal output logic description:
[0081] (1) When there is no Dh signal, regardless of whether there is a Y2 signal, the output of the Y2 signal follows the W1 signal (i.e., is the same);
[0082] (2) When there is a Dh signal, there is no Y2 signal output regardless of whether there is a Y1 or Y2 signal.
[0083] Y signal output logic description:
[0084] (1) When neither W1 nor W2 signal is present, the output of the Y signal follows either the Y1 or Y2 signal (i.e., if either Y1 or Y2 is present, the output is present; if either Y1 or Y2 is absent, the output is absent).
[0085] (2) When there is a W1 or W2 signal, the Y signal will not be output regardless of whether there is a Y1 or Y2 signal.
[0086] Specifically, the modes to be identified are cooling mode, heat pump heating mode, gas heating mode, and defrosting mode. The signal combinations for the operating modes (i.e., mode signals) are as follows (Note: Figures 7 to 10 (The asterisk "*" in the image represents any signal of the same type.)
[0087] Cooling mode: Heat pump outdoor unit 3: Y*O + gas furnace indoor unit 2: Y*, corresponding to... Figure 7 The flowchart shown;
[0088] Gas heating mode: Heat pump outdoor unit 3: None + Gas boiler indoor unit 2: W*, corresponding to... Figure 8 The flowchart shown is as follows (Note: The presence or absence of the Y* signal does not affect the process).
[0089] Heat pump heating mode: Heat pump outdoor unit 3: Y* + gas furnace indoor unit 2: Y*, corresponding as follows Figure 9 The flowchart shown;
[0090] Defrosting mode: Heat pump outdoor unit 3: Y*W + gas boiler indoor unit 2: W*, corresponding to... Figure 10The flowchart shown is as follows; it should be noted that the logical sequence is: the heat pump outdoor unit 3 receives Y* and starts auxiliary heating at the same time, and feeds back the W signal (which belongs to the existing signal logic mechanism of the heat pump outdoor unit 3). When the mode signal distribution module 44 receives the W signal, it distributes it to the gas furnace indoor unit 2.
[0091] Therefore, based on the combination of labeled signals, the preferred design is as follows: Figure 6 The logic circuit shown constitutes the mode signal distribution module 44 (other circuits composed of logic devices that can implement the same logic can also be used as mode signal distribution module 44). Its core is to solve the problem that the gas furnace indoor unit 2 and the heat pump outdoor unit 3 cannot receive Y*W* signals at the same time. Thus, the logic circuit replaces the shared signal line method to ensure the constant and correct output of the four working mode label signal combinations.

The other end of resistor R44, the negative terminal of capacitor E17, and the negative terminal of the first indication circuit 451 are all grounded.
[0095] In this embodiment, as Figure 11 As shown, the mode switching prompt module 45 is used to view the mode switching status.

The negative terminal of the fourth prompting circuit 4321 is grounded.
[0100] In this embodiment, the third prompting circuit 4311 is used to prompt the signal status of the output terminal in the data port of the heat pump outdoor unit 3, and the fourth prompting circuit 4321 is used to prompt the signal status of the feedback terminal in the data port of the heat pump outdoor unit 3.
[0101] Furthermore, the fourth data conversion circuit 421 also includes a fifth prompting circuit 4211, and the fifth data conversion circuit 422 also includes a sixth prompting circuit 4221; the positive terminal of the fifth prompting circuit 4211 is electrically connected to the common connection point of the first output terminal of the fourth data conversion circuit 421 and the mode signal distribution module 44, and the negative terminal of the fifth prompting circuit 4211 is grounded.
