Detailed ways

In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application. , not all examples. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of this application.

The air conditioner control method of the present application is described below in conjunction with Figures 1-3.

This application provides an air conditioner control method, as shown in Figure 1, which includes:

Step 110: Determine whether the current power supply is mains power or backup power supply.

Step 120: When the backup power supply is currently used, control the air conditioner to run at the lowest frequency, control the operating mode of the fan to be the automatic wind mode, and when the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, control the compressor to turn off and control the internal fan to run. Close after a preset period of time.

In the case of backup power supply, if the air conditioner operates according to the mode set by the user, the power consumption will be large and the running time will be short. For this reason, when it is determined that the backup power supply is supplied, the air conditioner is controlled to run at the lowest frequency, and the operating mode of the fan is controlled to be the automatic wind mode. At this time, the air conditioner It consumes the lowest energy, and at the same time, it can allow more wind to pass through the automatic wind mode, speed up the temperature adjustment, and make the indoor ambient temperature reach the target temperature faster.

In an optional embodiment, the target temperature is a temperature value set by the user to control the operation of the air conditioner. In yet another optional embodiment, the target temperature is determined based on the user-set temperature and the preset temperature. Specifically, in the heating or cooling mode, according to the relative magnitudes of the user-set temperature and the preset temperature, the temperature value with the lowest energy consumption among the user-set temperature and the preset temperature is selected as the target temperature. In addition, the target temperature can also be a fixed value, regardless of the user-set temperature. As long as the backup power supply is supplied, the same temperature value will be used as the cooling and heating target temperature.

When the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, the compressor stops immediately, thereby reducing energy consumption; the internal fan runs for a preset time to relieve the pressure of the compressor, and stops running after the pressure relief is completed. Among them, the default time is 45s~55s. For example, if the preset time is 50s, when the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, the internal fan will continue to run for 50s and then turn off. For another example, the preset time is 45s. When the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, the internal fan continues to run for 45s and then turns off. For another example, the preset time is 55s. When the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, the internal fan continues to run for 55s and then turns off.

Specifically, when the air conditioner is in the heating mode, if the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, the internal fan is controlled to run at the speed in the automatic air mode for a preset time and then shut down. Similarly, when the air conditioner is in the heating mode, if the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, the internal fan is controlled to run at the speed in the automatic fan mode for a preset time and then shut down. When the air conditioner is in the dehumidification mode, the dehumidification program is executed according to the user settings. After the dehumidification target is reached, the internal fan is controlled to run at the speed in the automatic wind mode for a preset time and then shut down.

The air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present application first determines whether the current air conditioner is powered by mains power or a backup power supply, runs at the lowest power when the backup power supply is supplied, and turns off the compressor when the target temperature is reached, without manual operation. , save energy consumption and extend the use time of the backup power supply.

In a specific embodiment of the present application, in the cooling mode, if the user-set temperature is not higher than the preset temperature, the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the preset temperature as the target temperature; if the user-set temperature is higher than the preset temperature, Then the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the user-set temperature as the target temperature. In the heating mode, if the user-set temperature is not higher than the preset temperature, the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the user-set temperature as the target temperature. If the user-set temperature is higher than the preset temperature, the air conditioner is controlled to run at the preset temperature. Temperature is run at target temperature.

The user-set temperature refers to the temperature control target input by the user through the remote control or the operation panel on the air conditioner. Optional, the preset temperature is 23℃~25℃. For example, if the preset temperature is 24°C, in cooling mode, if the user sets the temperature to 22°C, the air conditioner will be controlled to use 24°C as the cooling target temperature when the backup power supply is supplied. If the user sets the temperature to 26°C, the air conditioner is controlled to use 26°C as the cooling target temperature. In the heating mode, if the user sets the temperature to 25°C, the air conditioner is controlled to use 24°C as the heating target temperature; if the user sets the temperature to 23°C, the air conditioner is controlled to use 23°C as the heating target. temperature. It can be understood that when the preset temperature is 23°C or 25°C, the determination of the target temperature is similar to the above and will not be described again.

The air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present application uses the higher value of the user-set temperature and the preset temperature as the cooling target temperature in the cooling mode. In the heating mode, the user-set temperature and the preset temperature are used as the cooling target temperature. The lower value in the temperature is used as the target temperature for heating, thereby reducing energy consumption.

Based on any of the above embodiments, as shown in Figure 2, the air conditioner control method also includes: step 210, when the backup power supply is currently used, when the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, control the temperature sensor to turn off. Among them, in the heating mode, if the coil temperature of the coil in the air conditioner is less than the preset value within the preset time period, the internal fan is controlled to turn off.

Specifically, the temperature sensor is installed on the air conditioner for detecting the indoor ambient temperature. When the indoor ambient temperature reaches the target temperature, the temperature sensor is controlled to turn off to save power consumption. Among them, in the heating mode, the switch of the internal fan is controlled based on the coil temperature of the internal coil of the air conditioner. Specifically, if the coil temperature is less than the preset value, the internal fan is controlled to turn off even if the preset time period is not reached. The default value is 23℃~24℃. For example, the preset value is 23°C. Within the preset time, if the coil temperature is lower than 23°C, the fan in the control will be turned off. If the coil temperature is not lower than the preset value within the preset time, the internal fan will run for the preset time and then turn off.

The air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present application considers the coil temperature in the heating mode and controls the operation of the internal fan based on the coil temperature. When the coil temperature is lower than the preset value, even if the preset time is not reached, The internal fan is also turned off to further save energy consumption.

In a specific embodiment of the present application, when the backup power supply is currently used, the display screen of the air conditioner goes off for a first period of time after the operation is completed.

When the backup power supply is supplied, the display screen controlling the air conditioner is in the off-screen state. When the user operates the display screen, the display screen lights up. If there is no operation within the first period of time since the user operation is completed, the display screen is controlled to be off. Specifically, the first duration is 5s or 10s or other time values.

The air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present application reduces power consumption by controlling the screen node of the display screen.

Based on any of the above embodiments, when the backup power supply is currently used, if the operating mode of the user's air conditioner is any mode other than cooling mode, heating mode and dehumidification mode, the air conditioner is controlled to run in the energy-saving mode. .

Specifically, when adjusting the operating mode of the air conditioner through the remote control or the control panel on the air conditioner body, only the cooling mode, heating mode and dehumidification mode can be switched. When the user sets the operating mode of the air conditioner to another working mode, the air conditioner automatically switches to the energy-saving mode.

Among them, the energy-saving mode refers to the built-in operating program of the air conditioner, which controls the operation of the air conditioner according to the temperature value set in the program. Specifically, after turning on the rear air conditioner, the air conditioner will automatically set a temperature in the energy-saving mode. If the indoor temperature is higher than this temperature, the wind speed of the fan will automatically be adjusted to high-speed operation. When the indoor temperature reaches this temperature, the wind speed of the fan will It will change to low speed operation.

In addition, when the operating mode of the air conditioner set by the user is other working modes, the air conditioner will switch to cooling or heating mode or dehumidification mode according to the ambient temperature. The fan of the fan is adjusted to automatic wind mode.

In the air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the present application, in addition to the cooling mode, heating mode and dehumidification mode, the operating mode of the air conditioner is only the energy saving mode, thereby saving energy consumption.
