Solution Overview
Problem
Existing air conditioning apparatuses often cannot read the target temperature set by users on a wire controller due to mismatch issues, leading to an inability to provide a comfortable temperature environment.
Innovation Solution
A method and device for operating an air conditioning apparatus that involves receiving a start signal from a wire controller, determining a correction value based on the current and historical indoor temperatures, and using this value to correct the current temperature and set the operating temperature of the air conditioning apparatus.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the air conditioning apparatus uses a wire controller for temperature control, then the user can set the target temperature, but the apparatus cannot read the set temperature due to mismatch issues
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism that infers the target temperature through historical temperature data and correction values. Instead of directly reading the set temperature from the wire controller, the system uses the difference between historical indoor temperature and current indoor temperature as a mediator to calculate the target temperature, thereby recovering the lost temperature information.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback mechanism by continuously monitoring indoor temperature changes and using this information to adjust and infer the target temperature. The correction value is calculated based on historical temperature data, and this feedback loop allows the apparatus to progressively determine the user's intended temperature setting even without direct communication from the wire controller.
2Reliability
If the air conditioning apparatus cannot obtain the target temperature from the wire controller, then the apparatus cannot provide comfortable temperature control, but adding complex communication protocols increases device complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The air conditioning apparatus performs self-service by autonomously inferring the target temperature using its own historical temperature data and correction algorithms. Instead of relying on complex communication protocols with the wire controller, the system serves itself by calculating the target temperature based on the difference between historical and current indoor temperatures, thereby maintaining reliable temperature control without increasing device complexity.
3Device complexity
If the air conditioning apparatus uses simple temperature control without correction values, then the device complexity is low, but the temperature control precision is insufficient for user comfort
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by introducing correction values based on historical temperature data. The system modifies the target temperature determination process by adding a correction component calculated from the difference between historical indoor temperature and current indoor temperature. This parameter adjustment significantly improves target temperature determination precision while maintaining relatively simple device complexity.

AI summary
A method for operating an air conditioning apparatus includes receiving a start signal transmitted by a controller, and determining a correction value based on a current indoor temperature and a historical indoor temperature. The current indoor temperature is an indoor temperature at where the air conditioning apparatus is currently located. The historical indoor temperature is an indoor temperature when the air conditioning apparatus last received a shutdown signal transmitted by the controller. The method further includes correcting the current indoor temperature using the correction value to obtain a corrected temperature value and controlling the air conditioning apparatus to operate using the corrected temperature value as an operating temperature.
