Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If the air conditioner uses a single air supply mode in the same working mode, then the device complexity is reduced, but the time to reach comfortable temperature and humidity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the air supply mode adjustable and switchable based on ambient conditions. The air output structure can dynamically change its configuration (first operative configuration, second operative configuration, etc.) to optimize performance for different temperature and humidity scenarios, resolving the contradiction between response time and device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the operational parameters of the air supply mode based on detected ambient temperature and humidity. By switching between different operative configurations with distinct air supply characteristics, the system adapts to environmental conditions, reducing the time to achieve comfortable conditions without requiring permanently complex hardware.
2Ease of operation
If the air conditioner rapidly adjusts air output to match ambient conditions, then the user experience is improved, but the control system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback by using a detection device to continuously monitor ambient temperature and humidity, then feeding this information to the controller. The controller automatically switches between operative configurations based on the feedback, creating a closed-loop system that improves user experience without requiring complex manual controls.
Solution Approach 2:
The air conditioner performs self-adjustment by automatically switching its air supply mode based on environmental conditions detected by its own sensors. This self-service capability eliminates the need for complex user interfaces or manual adjustments, improving ease of operation while keeping the control system relatively simple.

AI summary
An air conditioner, a control method for the air conditioner, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The air conditioner has a body, an air outlet provided on the body, and an air output structure for adjusting an air output angle of the air outlet. The air output structure has multiple operative configurations. The air conditioner also has a detection device for acquiring an ambient temperature and an ambient humidity, and a controller electrically connected to the air output structure and the detection device. The controller controls the air output structure to switch among the operative configurations according to the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity, and further adjusts the air output angle of the air outlet and causes the air output angle and the amount of air output to match with the current ambient temperature and the current ambient humidity.
