Detailed ways

In order to better understand the above technical scheme, the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present disclosure is described in detail below through the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be understood that the embodiment of the present disclosure and the specific features in the implementation methods are detailed descriptions of the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present disclosure, rather than limitations on the technical scheme of the present disclosure. In the absence of conflict, the embodiment of the present disclosure and the technical features in the implementation methods can be combined with each other.

As shown in Figures 1 to 5, according to the first aspect of the present disclosure, an air conditioner is proposed, including: a shell 110, the shell 110 is formed with an air inlet and a first air outlet 113; a centrifugal wind wheel 120, the air inlet of the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is facing the air inlet; a partition 130, arranged in the shell 110, the partition 130 separates a plurality of air ducts between the centrifugal wind wheel 120 and the first air outlet 113; an evaporator, arranged in the air duct; and an adjusting member 150, the adjusting member 150 is arranged at at least one of the air ducts, and the adjusting member 150 is used to adjust the outlet air temperature at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct by adjusting the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct.

It is understood that the air conditioner provided in some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided with a housing 110, a centrifugal fan wheel 120, a partition 130, an evaporator and a regulating member 150. In some embodiments, an air inlet and a first air outlet 113 may be formed on the housing 110, and the centrifugal fan wheel 120 is arranged in the housing 110, and the air inlet of the centrifugal fan wheel 120 faces the air inlet. The partition 130 is provided with a plurality of air ducts between the centrifugal fan wheel 120 and the first air outlet 113, and an evaporator is arranged in each air duct. Specifically, the evaporator is arranged between the air inlet and the air inlet. The ambient air is sucked into the air inlet from the air inlet through the centrifugal fan wheel 120. In this process, when the ambient air passes through the evaporator, the refrigerant performs heat exchange with the ambient air in the evaporator to reduce the temperature of the ambient air in the air duct. The cooled ambient air is sent out from the first air outlet 113 through the centrifugal fan wheel 120, thereby reducing the indoor temperature. And at least one air duct is provided with an adjustment member 150, and the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct is adjusted by the adjustment member 150. According to the law of conservation of gas energy, the sum enthalpy of the internal energy and the flow energy of the gas energy remains unchanged. When the opening of the first air outlet 113 decreases, the pressure of the gas decreases, the distance between the gas expansion molecules increases, and the potential energy increases, thereby causing the temperature of the gas to decrease again. Therefore, by adjusting the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to different air ducts, the temperature of the wind blown out of different air ducts can be adjusted to be different, so that the temperature of the wind blown to different areas of the environment where the air conditioner is located is different, so that users in different areas feel different temperatures, meet the needs of users in different areas for cooling temperature, and improve user experience.

It is understandable that a plurality of adjusting members 150 may be provided. The number of adjusting members 150 is set corresponding to the number of air ducts separated by the partition 130, so as to adjust the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to each air duct in a targeted manner, thereby more accurately adjusting the air outlet temperature of different areas of the environment where the air conditioner is located. Users in different areas of the environment can set the temperature according to their respective needs, so that the adjusting member 150 adjusts the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the area, thereby adjusting the temperature of the air delivered to the area, achieving the effect of targeted temperature adjustment, while meeting the cooling temperature requirements of users in different areas, and improving user experience.

There may be multiple air inlets, and the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is provided with multiple air inlets, and the number of air inlets corresponds to the number of air inlets. The position of the air inlet corresponds to the position of the air inlet, and by providing a centrifugal wind wheel 120, ambient air from multiple areas can be sucked in at the same time, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency, allowing the indoor temperature to quickly reach the temperature required by the user, and improving the user experience.

The centrifugal wind wheel 120 can be provided with a motor 123 to provide power. When the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is started, the negative pressure generated causes the ambient air corresponding to the air inlet to be sucked into the air duct, undergo heat exchange with the evaporator, and then undergo work through the centrifugal force generated by the centrifugal wind wheel 120. This increases the air pressure and wind speed in the air duct, so that the cold air obtained through heat exchange in different air ducts is blown into the environment from the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct to adjust the air temperature in different areas of the environment. And the ambient air only needs to turn once in the centrifugal wind wheel 120, that is, from the axial direction of the centrifugal wind wheel 120 to the centrifugal wind wheel 120. radial direction, thereby reducing air flow loss and improving air supply efficiency and air supply distance.

The first air outlet 113 may be provided with one, which is opened in the middle of the panel 117 of the housing 110, so as to make the overall appearance of the air conditioner more beautiful and atmospheric. And because the partition 130 can separate multiple independent air ducts between the centrifugal wind wheel 120 and the first air outlet 113. Thus, winds of different temperatures can be delivered to the environment at the same time through one first air outlet 113, thereby meeting the cooling temperature requirements of users in different areas.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 , the partition 130 may separate a first air duct 114 and a second air duct 115 between the centrifugal wind wheel 120 and the first air outlet 113; the partition 130 may separate the first air outlet 113 into a first air outlet side 1131 and a second air outlet side 1132. In some embodiments, the first air duct 114 corresponds to the first air outlet side 1131, and the second air duct 115 corresponds to the second air outlet side 1132; two adjusting members 150 may be provided, one of which is connected to the first air outlet side 1131, and the other is connected to the second air outlet side 1132.

It is understandable that in order to ensure the cooling effect on the area, one partition 130 can be provided. The partition 130 can separate two air ducts between the centrifugal wind wheel 120 and the first air outlet 113, namely the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115. An evaporator can be provided in each of the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115. The partition 130 separates the first air outlet 113 into a first air outlet side 1131 and a second air outlet side 1132. In some embodiments, the first air duct 114 corresponds to the first air outlet side 1131, the second air duct 115 corresponds to the second air outlet side 1132, and the adjustment member 150 can be provided with two, namely the first adjustment member and the second adjustment member. In some embodiments, the first adjustment member can be connected to the first air outlet side 1131, the second adjustment member is connected to the second air outlet side 1132, and each adjustment member 150 can control the opening of its corresponding air outlet side separately. With such a configuration, the user can input the set temperature values of the first and second sides of the air conditioner corresponding to the first air outlet side 1131 and the second air outlet side 1132. The centrifugal wind wheel 120 draws in ambient air from the air inlet, and performs heat exchange with the ambient air through the refrigerant of the evaporator to complete the first cooling of the ambient air. Afterwards, under the action of the centrifugal force of the centrifugal wind wheel 120, the ambient air is transported to the first air outlet side 1131 through the first air duct 114 and to the second air outlet side 1132 through the second air duct 115. At this time, the first adjustment member can adjust the opening of the first air outlet side 1131 according to the temperature of the first side of the air conditioner set by the user, so that the air outlet temperature of the first air outlet side 1131 reaches the user's set value. The second adjustment member 150 can adjust the opening of the second air outlet side 1132 according to the temperature of the second side of the air conditioner set by the user, so that the air outlet temperature of the second air outlet side 1132 reaches the user's set value. This ensures that the temperature output through the first air outlet side 1131 and the second air outlet side 1132 meets the cooling temperature requirements of users in different areas, thereby improving the user experience.

In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 4, the above-mentioned adjusting member 150 may include: an air guide plate group, rotatably connected to the above-mentioned first air outlet 113, and the above-mentioned air guide plate group is provided with a plurality of fins 1511; a connecting rod 1512, connected to one end of the plurality of fins 1511; and a driving motor 153, connected to the above-mentioned connecting rod 1512.

It is understandable that the adjustment member 150 may be provided with an air guide plate group and a drive motor 153. In some embodiments, two air guide plate groups may be provided, which are rotatably connected to the first air outlet side 1131 and the second air outlet side 1132, respectively. The drive motor 153 is connected to the air guide plate group to drive the air guide plate group to rotate, thereby adjusting the opening of the first air outlet side 1131 and the opening of the second air outlet side 1132. In this way, the air outlet temperature of the first air outlet side 1131 and the second air outlet side 1132 can be changed to meet the cooling temperature requirements of users in different regions and improve the user experience.

Specifically, the air guide plate group may be provided with a plurality of fins 1511 and a connecting rod 1512. The plurality of fins 1511 are arranged in parallel, and the intervals between adjacent fins 1511 are the same. Each fin 1511 may be provided with a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the first air outlet 113, and the connecting rod 1512 is connected to the same end of the plurality of fins 1511, so that the rotation angles of all fins 1511 are the same, ensuring that the opening is adjusted accurately and improving the aesthetic appearance of the first air outlet 113. And the connecting rod 1512 is connected to the driving motor 153. The driving motor 153 drives the connecting rod 1512 to rotate relative to the first air outlet 113, thereby driving the plurality of fins 1511 to rotate equivalent to the first air outlet 113, and the rotating shaft assists the rotation, ensuring a smooth rotation process, reducing wear, and extending the service life of the air guide plate group.

It can be understood that the air guide plate group can cover the air outlet area of the first air outlet 113, and the fin 1511 can rotate 0° to 90° relative to the first air outlet 113. When the fin 1511 rotates to 0° relative to the first air outlet 113, the air guide plate group and the first air outlet 113 are parallel, so that the opening of the first air outlet 113 is the smallest; when the fin 1511 rotates to 90° relative to the first air outlet 113, the air guide plate group and the first air outlet 113 are perpendicular, so that the opening of the first air outlet 113 is the largest.

For example, the driving motor 153 may be a stepper motor to ensure high rotation accuracy and avoid error accumulation. This improves the accuracy of adjusting the opening of the first air outlet side 1131 and the opening of the second air outlet side 1132, thereby improving the accuracy of adjusting the opening of the first air outlet side 1131 and the second air outlet side 1132. The accuracy of the air outlet temperature at the second air outlet side 1131 and 1132.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 , the air inlet may be provided with two, namely, a first air inlet 111 and a second air inlet 112, respectively located at two side plates of the housing 110. The centrifugal impeller 120 may be provided with a first air inlet 121 and a second air inlet 122. The evaporator may be provided with two, one of which is located between the first air inlet 111 and the first air inlet 121, and the other of which is located between the second air inlet 112 and the second air inlet 122.

It is understandable that two air inlets may be provided, namely, the first air inlet 111 and the second air inlet 112. At the same time, the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is provided with two air inlets, namely, the first air inlet 121 and the second air inlet 122, and the first air inlet 121 corresponds to the first air inlet 111, and the second air inlet 122 corresponds to the second air inlet 112. The first air inlet 111 is located at the side plate of the housing 110 close to the first side of the air conditioner, and the second air inlet 112 is located at the side plate of the housing 110 close to the second side of the air conditioner. Two evaporators may be provided, namely, the first evaporator 141 and the second evaporator 142. In some embodiments, the first evaporator 141 is located between the first air inlet 111 and the first air inlet 121, and the second evaporator 142 is located between the second air inlet 112 and the second air inlet 122. With such a configuration, the centrifugal wind wheel 120 sucks the ambient air on the first side into the first air inlet 121 through the first air inlet 111. In this process, after the ambient air has heat exchanged with the first evaporator 141, it is transported to the first air outlet side 1131 by the centrifugal wind wheel 120, and after the opening of the first air outlet side 1131 is adjusted by the air guide plate group, the output temperature is adjusted again to adjust the ambient temperature of the first side. Similarly, after the ambient air on the second side is adjusted in temperature by the second evaporator 142 and the air guide plate group corresponding to the second air outlet side 1132, it is output to the environment on the second side to adjust the ambient temperature of the second side. In this way, the arrangement of the air inlet and the first air outlet 113 of the air conditioner is more reasonable, the air intake efficiency of the air conditioner is improved, the overall aesthetics are improved, and the user experience is improved.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 , the air conditioner may further include: a first air inlet grille 170 connected to the first air inlet 111 ; and a second air inlet grille 172 connected to the second air inlet 112 .

It is understandable that the air conditioner may also be provided with a first air inlet grille 170 and a second air inlet grille 172. In some embodiments, the first air inlet grille 170 is provided at the first air inlet 111, and the second air inlet grille 172 is provided at the second air inlet 112. By providing the first air inlet grille 170 and the second air inlet grille 172, dust and foreign matter are prevented from entering the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115, the air cleanliness is improved, the cooling effect of the air conditioner is ensured not to be affected, and the service life of the air conditioner is extended.

In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 4, the air conditioner may further include: a volute 160, which is mounted on the centrifugal wind wheel 120, the volute 160 is provided with a second air outlet 1243, and the second air outlet 1243 corresponds to the first air outlet 113; and a mounting member, one end of which is connected to the volute 160, and the other end is connected to the casing 110.

It is understandable that the air conditioner may also be provided with a volute 160 and a mounting member. In some embodiments, the volute 160 may be provided on the centrifugal wind wheel 120 as a casing of the centrifugal wind wheel 120. The volute 160 may be provided with a second air outlet 1243. The second air outlet 1243 faces the first air outlet 113, and the second air outlet 1243 is close to the first air outlet 113, so that when the wind delivered by the centrifugal wind wheel 120 flows to the first air outlet 113 through the second air outlet 1243, no loss occurs, and the wind flows into the housing 110, thereby ensuring the air supply efficiency and air supply volume.

A first air duct 114 and a second air duct 115 are formed in the volute 160. Specifically, a partition 130 can be arranged between the second air outlet 1243 of the volute 160 and the centrifugal wind wheel 120 to separate the volute 160 from the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115. The partition 130 can be located in the middle position of the volute 160 to ensure that the air supply through the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115 is equal. The gas passing through the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is collected and diverted through the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115. Due to the centrifugal force of the centrifugal wind wheel 120, the gas is accelerated and pressurized. If it is directly transported to the environment, the user will feel that the wind speed is too fast, the body feels hard, and it is easy to cause physical discomfort. By setting the volute 160, the speed of the airflow will be gradually reduced, so that part of the kinetic energy of the gas is converted into static pressure, ensuring that the wind speed transported to the environment is appropriate, and improving the comfort of the user. And after the wind speed is reduced, the friction between the air and the air conditioner components is reduced, the noise is effectively reduced, and the user experience is improved. The extended portion from the spiral line of the volute 160 to the cross section of the second air outlet 1243 is formed with a volute tongue, which prevents part of the airflow from circulating in the volute 160. This further reduces the loss of air supply volume.

In addition, the arc radius of the arc surface of the volute tongue can be set according to the environmental noise requirements and the size of the centrifugal wind wheel 120 placed in the housing 110. The arc radius and the noise value are inversely proportional. At the same time, by reducing the gap between the volute tongue and the outer diameter of the impeller of the centrifugal wind wheel 120, the noise generated can be reduced, the noise pollution can be reduced, and the user experience can be improved.

It is understandable that in order to ensure that the position of the volute 160 in the housing 110 is fixed, the volute 160 is fixed to the housing 110 by a mounting member. The partition 130 separates the volute 160 into two parts, namely the first volute part 1241 and the second volute part 1242. The mounting member can be connected to the bottom of the first volute part 1241 and/or the bottom of the second volute part 1242. The mounting member can be fixed to the housing 110 by threaded connection, which is convenient for installation and disassembly, and the connection is tight.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4 , the mounting member is a slot 161 , and a plug-in board 116 is disposed on the bottom plate of the housing 110 , and the plug-in board 116 is plugged into the slot 161 .

It is understandable that the mounting piece may use the slot 161. A plug plate 116 may be provided at the bottom plate of the housing 110, so that the mounting piece is connected to the housing 110 by plugging the plug plate 116 into the slot 161. Specifically, the number of plug plates 116 may be multiple. The number of slots 161 may be greater than or equal to the number of plug plates 116. The plug plates 116 and the slots 161 may both be arranged along the radial direction of the centrifugal wind wheel 120. All the plug plates 116 are plugged into the slots 161 to improve the fixing stability and reduce shaking. And when the number of slots 161 is greater than the number of plug plates 116, the distance between the volute 160 and the first air outlet 113 can be adjusted by selecting the position of the slot 161 into which the plug plate 116 is inserted.

The slot 161 and the plug plate 116 may be provided with threaded holes, and the positions of the threaded holes on the slot 161 and the threaded holes on the plug plate 116 correspond. After the plug plate 116 is inserted into the slot 161, the threaded holes on the slot 161 and the plug plate 116 are aligned. The plug plate 116 is fixed to the slot 161 by screwing screws into the threaded holes of the slot 161 and the plug plate 116 in turn, so as to avoid the situation where the volute 160 falls off from the housing 110 due to loose connection. In this way, the connection tightness can be ensured and the reliability of use can be improved.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 , the area of the first air outlet 113 is greater than or equal to the area of the second air outlet 1243 .

It is understandable that the area of the first air outlet 113 is greater than or equal to the area of the second air outlet 1243 to ensure that the wind delivered to the environment through the second air outlet 1243 of the volute 160 will not be blocked by the first air outlet 113. This can reduce air supply damage and ensure air supply volume.

Exemplarily, the housing 110 of the air conditioner can be a square housing 110, and the first air outlet 113 can be a circular air outlet, so as to improve the overall appearance of the air conditioner. And the second air outlet 1243 of the volute 160 can select a shape according to the output pressure value of the centrifugal wind wheel 120. When the output pressure of the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is low pressure, the second air outlet 1243 can be a square air outlet. When the output pressure of the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is high pressure, the second air outlet 1243 can be a circular air outlet. Usually, the second air outlet 1243 can be a square air outlet. The area of the circular air outlet is larger than the area of the square air outlet.

It is understandable that since screw holes can be installed at the edge of the circular air outlet on the housing 110, when the screws are screwed, the panel 117 of the housing 110 will be deformed by force, resulting in a slight error in the diameters measured in different areas of the housing 110. The ratio of the maximum outer diameter to the minimum outer diameter of the circular air outlet should be within the range of 1 to 1.05 to ensure that the deformation of the circular air outlet is small, the appearance is not affected, and the overall aesthetics of the air conditioner is ensured.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6 , the air conditioner 100 may further include: an air outlet grille 180 disposed at the first air outlet 113 .

It is understandable that the air conditioner may also be provided with an air outlet grille 180. Specifically, the air outlet grille 180 may be provided at the first air outlet 113, and the air outlet grille 180 covers the first air outlet 113. The shape of the air outlet grille 180 may be selected according to the shape of the first air outlet 113. In the case where the first air outlet 113 is a circular air outlet, the air outlet grille 180 may be a disc-shaped air outlet grille 180. The disc-shaped air outlet grille 180 may rotate at any angle along the circumference of the first air outlet 113 to achieve air guiding and air supply at any angle. Specifically, in the case where the disc-shaped air outlet grille 180 does not rotate, the air conditioner may deliver air of different temperatures to both sides of the environment in which it is located, and may achieve different air supply volumes on both sides according to the static position of the disc-shaped air outlet grille 180. In the case where the disc-shaped air outlet grille 180 rotates, the airflow disturbance of the air outlet of the air conditioner may be enhanced, the user's comfort may be enhanced, and the airflow in the environment may be made more uniform, thereby achieving overall rapid cooling.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 4 , the air conditioner may further include: a temperature measuring component 190 disposed in the housing 110 for detecting an inlet air temperature in the housing 110 and an outlet air temperature at the first air outlet 113 .

It is understandable that the air conditioner is also provided with a temperature measuring component 190. Specifically, the temperature measuring component 190 can be arranged in the shell 110 to detect the inlet temperature in the shell 110 and the air flowing through the evaporator, and to detect the outlet temperature after the evaporator heat exchange is secondary adjusted by the regulating component 150 at the first air outlet 113. With such a configuration, the temperature change in the air conditioner can be detected in real time. The inlet temperature is the temperature at the air inlet of the air conditioner, which is equivalent to the temperature of the environment in which the air conditioner is located. According to the temperature set by the user, the regulating component 150 adjusts the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct in which it is located to adjust the air outlet. The outlet air temperature is detected by the temperature measuring component 190 to determine the working conditions of the evaporator and the regulating member 150. After the air conditioner has been working for a certain period of time, the ambient temperature is determined to reach the user-set temperature based on the inlet air temperature fed back by the temperature measuring component 190.

In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 and 4, the temperature measuring component 190 may include: an inlet temperature sensor 191, arranged at the first air inlet 111 and/or the second air inlet 112; a first outlet temperature sensor 192, arranged on a side of the first air duct 114 close to the first air outlet 113; and a second outlet temperature sensor 193, arranged on a side of the second air duct 115 close to the first air outlet 113.

It is understandable that the temperature measuring component 190 may be provided with an inlet temperature sensor 191 and an outlet temperature sensor. In some embodiments, one or two inlet temperature sensors 191 may be provided. In the case where one inlet temperature sensor 191 is provided, the inlet temperature sensor 191 is located at the first air inlet 111 or the second air inlet 112 to detect the current ambient temperature. In the case where two inlet temperature sensors 191 are provided, they are the first inlet temperature sensor 191 and the second inlet temperature sensor 191. In some embodiments, the first inlet temperature sensor 191 may be provided at the first air inlet 111 to detect the current temperature of the environment near the first side. The second inlet temperature sensor 191 is provided at the second air inlet 112 to detect the current temperature of the environment near the second side. Two outlet temperature sensors are provided, namely the first outlet temperature sensor 192 and the second outlet temperature sensor 193. In some embodiments, the first air outlet sensor can be arranged on a side of the first air duct 114 close to the first air outlet 113, that is, the first air outlet sensor detects the outlet air temperature at the first air outlet 113 after the opening at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 is adjusted by the adjusting member 150 at the first air duct 114. The second air outlet sensor is arranged on a side of the second air duct 115 close to the first air outlet 113, that is, the second air outlet sensor detects the outlet air temperature at the first air outlet 113 after the opening at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 is adjusted by the adjusting member 150 at the second air duct 115. This makes the detected temperature targeted. At the same time, the first air outlet sensor and the second air outlet sensor are arranged so that the detected air will not be mixed with the ambient air, and the detection result is more accurate.

As shown in FIG8 , a control method for an air conditioner according to the second aspect of the present disclosure is used to control the air conditioner as described in any one of the above technical solutions, including:

Step 101: Obtaining set temperature information. It is understandable that the set temperature information can be set by the user according to his/her own needs. The set temperature information on different sides of the air conditioner can be the same or different. The housing 110 of the air conditioner can be provided with a panel 117 to display the current ambient temperature information and a set temperature button for the user to intuitively select the set temperature.

Step 102: Determine the adjustment instruction based on the temperature at the air inlet and the set temperature information. It is understandable that the air conditioner can be provided with the air inlet temperature sensor 191 to detect the air inlet temperature of the air conditioner, that is, the current temperature of the environment to which the air conditioner belongs. Specifically, after receiving the set temperature information of the user, the air inlet temperature sensor 191 detects the current temperature information of the environment described by the air conditioner, thereby determining the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the set temperature, so as to determine the power and adjustment method of the air conditioner operation, and then the air conditioner determines the adjustment instruction based on the current temperature information of the air inlet and the current temperature information of the environment described by the air conditioner, so as to control the operation of the components in the air conditioner to meet the temperature set by the user.

Step 103: Based on the adjustment instruction, the adjustment member 150 is controlled to adjust the opening of the first air outlet 113. It is understandable that after the adjustment member 150 receives the adjustment instruction, the adjustment member 150 is controlled to adjust the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct where it is located according to the user's set temperature information and the current ambient temperature information in the adjustment instruction, thereby adjusting the air outlet temperature at the first air outlet 113 to achieve the ambient temperature adjustment of the side where the adjustment member 150 is set to meet the user's set temperature information.

It is understandable that in order to ensure the cooling effect of each area in the environment, two air ducts can be provided to adjust the temperature on both sides of the environment, namely the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115, and the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 and the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 are both provided with adjustment members 150, namely the first adjustment member and the second adjustment member. Users on the first side and the second side of the air conditioner can input the set temperature information of their respective sides to the air conditioner, and the adjustment instruction controls the first adjustment member to adjust the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 according to the set temperature information of the first side and the second side of the air conditioner, so as to reduce the outlet temperature of the first side, thereby realizing the set temperature of the user on the first side. The second adjustment member is controlled to adjust the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115, so as to reduce the outlet temperature of the second side, thereby realizing the set temperature of the user on the second side. The independent adjustment of the temperature on both sides of the air conditioner can meet the different temperature requirements of users on both sides of the air conditioner and improve the user experience.

In some embodiments, the adjustment member 150 may include the wind deflector assembly. The step of controlling the adjustment member 150 to adjust the opening of the first air outlet 113 may include: when the set temperature at each of the air ducts is lower than the temperature at the air inlet, controlling the adjustment member 150 with a first adjustment instruction to drive the air guide plate group corresponding to each of the air ducts to rotate, and adjusting the first air outlet 113 corresponding to each of the air ducts to supply air at a first opening; when the set temperature at the air duct is greater than or equal to the temperature at the air inlet, controlling the adjustment member 150 with a second adjustment instruction to drive the air guide plate group corresponding to the air duct whose set temperature is lower than the temperature at the air inlet to rotate, and adjusting the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct to supply air at a second opening. In some embodiments, the first opening is greater than the second opening.

It is understandable that the regulating member 150 of the air conditioner can be provided with the above-mentioned air guide plate group. The opening of the first air outlet 113 can be adjusted by rotating the air guide plate group. Specifically, after obtaining the user's set temperature information at each air duct and the temperature information at the air inlet, that is, the ambient temperature, the set temperature information at each air duct and the temperature information at the air inlet are compared. The user's set temperature at all air ducts is lower than the temperature at the air inlet, indicating that the environment where the air conditioner is located requires rapid overall cooling. At this time, the regulating member 150 at each air duct is controlled by the first adjustment instruction to adjust the rotation of the air guide plate group at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct, so as to adjust the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct to supply air at the first opening, giving priority to satisfying the cooling capacity, so as to quickly reduce the ambient temperature.

After comparing the set temperature information at each air duct with the temperature information at the air inlet, if it is found that the set temperature at some air ducts is greater than or equal to the temperature at the air inlet, and the set temperature at other air ducts is less than the temperature at the air inlet, it means that the environment corresponding to the set temperature less than the temperature at the air inlet needs to lower the air temperature. Therefore, the regulating member 150 of the air duct whose set temperature is less than the temperature at the air inlet is controlled by the second adjustment instruction to adjust the air guide plate group at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct to rotate, so as to adjust the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct to supply air at the second opening. It can be understood that the second opening is less than the first opening. According to the law of conservation of gas energy, the sum enthalpy of the internal energy and the flow energy of the gas energy remains unchanged. When the opening at the first air outlet 113 decreases, the pressure of the gas decreases, the distance between the gas expansion molecules increases, and the potential energy increases, thereby causing the temperature of the gas to decrease. Therefore, by reducing the opening, the ambient air can be cooled down for the first time through the evaporator heat exchange and then cooled down for the second time through the regulating member 150, so that the outlet air temperature at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct whose set temperature is lower than the temperature at the air inlet can be further reduced to reach the user set temperature.

It is understandable that the air conditioner 100 is further provided with an air outlet temperature sensor, which is respectively provided on one side of each air duct close to the first air outlet 113. The air outlet temperature sensor detects the air outlet temperature after heat exchange of the evaporator, and then generates a second adjustment instruction according to the feedback air outlet temperature information, air inlet temperature information and adjustment temperature information, so as to control whether the solenoid valve is opened and the expansion valve is opened accurately, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the temperature adjustment.

It is understandable that in order to ensure the cooling effect of each area in the environment, two air ducts can be provided to adjust the temperature on both sides of the environment, namely the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115. In some embodiments, the first air duct 114 supplies air to the environment on the first side through the portion of the first air outlet 113 close to the first side; the second air duct 115 supplies air to the environment on the second side through the portion of the first air outlet 113 close to the second side. Adjustment members 150 are provided at both the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115. In some embodiments, the adjustment member 150 at the first air duct 114 is provided with a first air guide plate group 151, and the adjustment member 150 at the second air duct 115 is provided with a second air guide plate group 152. The user can set the set temperature TS1 of the first side and the set temperature TS2 of the second side. In some embodiments, the set temperature value of the higher temperature of TS1 and TS2 is TSH, the set temperature of the lower temperature is TSL, and the temperature at the air inlet is TJ.

Determine the relationship between TSH, TSL and TJ. When TSH is less than TJ, the adjustment member 150 adjusts the rotation of the first air guide plate group 151 and the second air guide plate group 152 so that the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 and the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 are both supplied with the first opening, that is, the maximum air supply opening, and the cooling capacity is preferentially satisfied, so that the ambient temperature is quickly reduced. When TSH is greater than or equal to TJ, and TSL is less than TJ, the adjustment member 150 corresponding to the TSL side adjusts the corresponding air guide plate group to rotate to reduce the opening at the first air outlet 113 on the TSL side, so as to reduce the outlet air temperature at the first air outlet 113 on the TSL side, and adjusts the outlet air temperature on the TSL side to TSL±TW degrees, and runs for the set time TT. To ensure that the outlet air temperature on the TSL side is adjusted to the set temperature value. Wherein, TW is the fluctuation error temperature. When TSL is less than TJ, the adjustment member 150 controls the first air guide plate and the second air guide plate to rotate to a default air guide angle position or an air supply angle position set by the user.

An exemplary TT may be set to 5 minutes to avoid frequent adjustment of the opening of the expansion valve, thereby ensuring reliability and stability and extending the service life of the expansion valve.

In some embodiments, the control method of the air conditioner may further include: setting the set temperature at each of the air ducts. When the set temperature at the air duct is greater than or equal to the temperature at the air inlet, the centrifugal fan wheel 120 is controlled to operate at the second power. In some embodiments, the first power may be greater than the second power.

It is understandable that the air supply temperature can be further adjusted by adjusting the rotation speed of the centrifugal fan wheel 120. Specifically, when the set temperature at each air duct is lower than the temperature at the air inlet, it indicates that the ambient temperature needs to be quickly lowered. The centrifugal fan wheel 120 is controlled to operate at a first power. Under the first power, the centrifugal fan wheel 120 operates at a maximum rotation speed, delivers the cold air heat-exchanged by the evaporator to the environment at a maximum air supply volume, operates at a maximum cooling capacity, and gives priority to satisfying the cooling capacity.

After comparing the set temperature information at each air duct with the temperature information at the air inlet, if it is found that the set temperature at some air ducts is greater than or equal to the temperature at the air inlet, and the set temperature at other air ducts is less than the temperature at the air inlet, it means that the environment corresponding to the set temperature less than the temperature at the air inlet needs to lower the air temperature. At this time, the centrifugal wind wheel 120 is controlled to operate at the second power, the second power is less than the first power, the centrifugal wind wheel 120 reduces the speed, and at the same time, the first air guide plate group 151 corresponding to the air duct on the side where the set temperature is less than the temperature at the air inlet rotates to adjust the opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the air duct to reduce the air outlet temperature at the air duct, thereby realizing targeted adjustment of the ambient temperature on this side to reach the user-set temperature.

In some embodiments, the step of obtaining the set temperature information may include: when the set temperature information of only one of the air ducts is received, using the set temperature information as the set temperature information of all the air ducts.

It is understandable that when the user sets the ambient temperature setting information corresponding to only one air duct, the set temperature information is used as the set temperature information for all air ducts. Then, the adjustment instruction is determined according to the set temperature information and the temperature information at the air inlet, and the adjustment member 150 is controlled to adjust the opening at the first air outlet 113 based on the adjustment instruction to adjust the air outlet temperature of each air duct to the user set temperature value, thereby ensuring that the ambient temperature reaches the user set temperature value. This avoids the situation where the air conditioner does not work when the user forgets to set the set temperature information for other air ducts, thereby improving the user experience.

As shown in FIG. 7 , in some embodiments, the air conditioner may be provided with a first air duct 114 and a second air duct 115, and an adjustment member 150 may be provided at both the first air duct 114 and the second air duct 115. In some embodiments, the adjustment member 150 at the first air duct 114 may be provided with a first air guide plate group 151. The adjustment member 150 at the second air duct 115 may be provided with a second air guide plate group 152. A first air outlet temperature sensor 192 is provided on a side of the first air duct 114 close to the first air outlet 113, and a second air outlet temperature sensor 193 is provided on a side of the second air duct 115 close to the first air outlet 113. The control method of the air conditioner may include:

Step 201: Start the air conditioner 100 and read the first set temperature value TS1;

Step 202: Determine whether the second set temperature value TS2 is read, if yes, execute step 203, if no, execute step 204;

Step 203: Read the set temperature information TS2 of the second side;

Step 204: setting the first set temperature value TS1 to the second set temperature value, that is, TS2 = TS1;

Step 205: Compare TS1 and TS2, set the higher temperature value as the high temperature setting value TSH, set the lower temperature value as the low temperature setting value TSL, and read the temperature value TJ at the air inlet;

Step 206: Determine whether TJ is greater than TSH, if TJ>TSH, execute step 207, if TJ≤TSH, execute step 208;

Step 207: Control the centrifugal wind wheel 120 to operate at the first power, control the first air guide plate group 151 and the second air guide plate group 152 to rotate according to the first adjustment instruction, and adjust the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 and the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 to supply air at the first opening;

Step 208: Determine whether TJ is greater than TSL, if TJ>TSL, execute step 209, if not, execute step 210;

Step 209: Control the centrifugal wind wheel 120 to operate at the second power, control the TSL side wind guide plate group to rotate according to the second adjustment instruction, adjust the first air outlet 113 on the TSL side to supply air at the second opening, adjust the difference between the TSH side air outlet temperature TC1 and the TSL side air outlet temperature TC2 to be less than (TSH-TSL)±TW, and operate for a set time TT; and

Step 210: Control the centrifugal wind wheel 120 to operate at the lowest power, and the adjustment member 150 controls the first wind guide plate and the second wind guide plate to rotate to a default wind guide angle position, or a wind supply angle position set by the user.

Through the control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the air supply temperature on the first side and the second side of the air conditioner 100 can be adjusted separately according to the user's set temperature, so as to achieve different cooling temperatures on the first side and the second side, meet the user's differentiated needs for different cooling temperatures in different areas of the environment, and improve the user experience.

Exemplarily, the ambient temperature of the air conditioner 100 is 32 degrees Celsius, that is, the temperature TJ at the air inlet is 32 degrees Celsius. The user inputs TS1 as 27 degrees Celsius on the first side and TS2 as 23 degrees Celsius on the second side. When TS2 is detected, it is determined that TS1 is greater than TS2, that is, TS1 is TSH and TS2 is TSL. By comparing TJ and TSH, it can be seen that TJ is greater than TSH, that is, the temperature values set by the user are all lower than the temperature values at the air inlet. At this time, the air conditioner 100 is running in cooling mode, the centrifugal wind wheel 120 runs at a maximum speed of 1200 rpm, the first air guide plate group 151 and the second air guide plate group 152 rotate, and the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 and the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 are adjusted to supply air at the maximum opening, and run at the maximum cooling capacity, giving priority to satisfying the cooling capacity.

After the air conditioner 100 has been running in cooling mode for a period of time, the air inlet temperature sensor 191 detects that TJ has dropped to 27 degrees Celsius, and TJ is equal to TSH and greater than TSL. At this time, the first air guide plate group 151 remains in an open state, and the second air guide plate group 152 remains in a closed state. The centrifugal wind wheel 120 runs at a speed of 1000 rpm. At this stage, the focus is on adjusting the temperature difference between TS2 and TS1. Specifically, according to the second adjustment instruction, the adjustment member 150 controls the rotation of the second air guide plate group 152 to reduce the opening at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115, so that the air outlet of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 is less than the air outlet of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114, so as to reduce the air outlet temperature of the first air outlet 113. The angle of the first air guide plate group 151 remains unchanged, so that the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 still maintains the maximum air outlet angle, so that the air outlet temperature TC2 detected by the second air outlet temperature sensor 193 is lower than the air outlet temperature TC1 detected by the first air outlet temperature sensor 192. The opening of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 continues to decrease slowly until the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 reaches the set minimum air outlet position, so as to reduce the air outlet volume at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 and reduce the air outlet temperature TC2. Due to the different rotation angles of the second air guide plate group 152 and the first air guide plate group 151, the air supply angles of the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114 and the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 are different. The air supply volume at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 is less than the air supply volume at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the first air duct 114. The outlet temperature TC1 detected by the first outlet temperature sensor 192 is 25 degrees Celsius, and the outlet temperature TC2 detected by the second outlet temperature sensor 193 is 21.5 degrees Celsius. The error fluctuation temperature TW set by the controller is 1 degree Celsius, the difference between the outlet temperature TC2 on the low temperature setting value TSL side and the outlet temperature TC1 on the high target temperature value TSH side is 3.5 degrees Celsius, TSH-TSL is 4 degrees Celsius, and the fluctuation error temperature TW set by (TSH-TSL)± is 3 to 5 degrees Celsius. The condition that the outlet temperature TC2 on the low temperature setting value TSL side is lower than the outlet temperature TC1 on the high target temperature value side is met, and the controller no longer continues to adjust the angle of the second air guide plate group 152, and maintains the current opening and air supply volume at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115 until the second outlet temperature value TC2 is lower than the difference of the first outlet temperature value TC1. When it deviates from the range of 3 to 5 degrees Celsius, the angle of the first air guide plate group 151 continues to be changed. When the temperature difference is greater than 5 degrees Celsius, adjust the rotation angle of the second air guide plate group 152 to increase the opening and air volume at the first air outlet 113 corresponding to the second air duct 115. After the air conditioner continues to operate in cooling mode for a period of time, the indoor temperature continues to drop, and the temperature TJ at the air inlet detected by the air inlet temperature sensor 191 drops to 23 degrees Celsius. At this time, the centrifugal wind wheel 120 runs at the lowest operating speed of 700 rpm, and the first air guide plate and the second air guide plate are opened to the default air guide angle position, or the air guide angle position set by the user. At the same time, the compressor on the outdoor side of the air conditioner also runs at the lowest cooling capacity to maintain the indoor temperature not higher than the low set temperature value TSL (23 degrees Celsius).

Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure at least includes the following beneficial effects: the air conditioner provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is provided with a housing, a centrifugal wind wheel, a partition, an evaporator and an adjusting member. In some embodiments, an air inlet and a first air outlet are formed on the housing, the centrifugal wind wheel is arranged in the housing, the air inlet of the centrifugal wind wheel faces the air inlet, and the partition is provided with a plurality of air ducts between the centrifugal wind wheel and the first air outlet, and an evaporator is provided in each air duct. Specifically, the evaporator is arranged between the air inlet and the air inlet. The ambient air is sucked into the air inlet from the air inlet through the centrifugal wind wheel. In this process, when the ambient air passes through the evaporator, the refrigerant performs heat exchange with the ambient air in the evaporator to reduce the temperature of the ambient air in the air duct, and the ambient air after the temperature is reduced is sent out from the first air outlet through the centrifugal wind wheel, thereby reducing the indoor ambient temperature. And at least one air duct is provided with an adjusting member, and the opening of the first air outlet corresponding to the air duct is adjusted by the adjusting member. According to the law of conservation of gas energy, when the opening at the first air outlet decreases, the pressure of the gas decreases, the distance between the gas expansion molecules increases, and the potential energy increases. This causes the temperature of the gas to drop again, so that the opening of the first air outlet corresponding to different air ducts can be adjusted, and the temperature of the air blown out of different air ducts can be adjusted to be different, so that the temperature of the wind blown to different areas of the environment where the air conditioner is located is different, so that users in different areas feel different temperatures, meet the cooling temperature needs of users in different areas, and improve user experience.

In some embodiments, the outdoor unit of the air-conditioning device may be provided with a compressor, a condenser, an axial flow fan and a throttling device. The compressor may be connected to the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. The throttling device may be a capillary tube or an expansion valve. The compressor compresses the refrigerant coming out of the evaporator into a high-temperature and high-pressure gas, which then flows into the condenser. In the condenser, the axial flow fan blows air to the condenser to dissipate heat, and the temperature of the refrigerant in the pipeline is reduced. After being throttled by the throttling device, the refrigerant flows into the evaporator, completing a refrigeration cycle.
