Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to an air conditioner with a remote controller position detection function and a light sensing part support for supporting a light sensing part.
Background
With the increasing demand of people on living quality, the air conditioner is expected to automatically change the direction according to the position of a user, so that the user can better enjoy cold air or hot air blown out by the air conditioner. According to such a demand, an air conditioner having a user position detection function is produced.
The user position detection function is realized in the following mode: the air conditioner is provided with a light sensing part which can receive light and convert received optical signals into electric signals; a position detection function key is arranged on a remote controller of the air conditioner, and when the position detection function key is pressed by aligning the light sensing part, the remote controller can emit position detection light to the light sensing part. The control panel of the air conditioner can process the electric signal transmitted by the light sensing part, so as to judge the position of the remote controller of the air conditioner, namely the position of the user. The air conditioner control panel controls the blades to blow air to the area where the remote controller is located according to the position of the remote controller.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a conventional air conditioner, showing the position of a signal receiving window; fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating the principle of the light sensing part in the signal receiving window for determining the position of the remote controller.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a housing of the air conditioner 10 is provided with a signal receiving window 11; a light receiving section 12 is provided behind the signal receiving window 11. The light sensing portion 12 includes two photoelectric sensors, namely a first photoelectric sensor 121 and a second photoelectric sensor 122, the two photoelectric sensors 121 and 122 are both attached to the air conditioner control panel 13, and light sensing surfaces of the two photoelectric sensors 121 and 122 face the signal receiving window 11 and are substantially parallel to the signal receiving window 11. A blocking wall 14 is provided on the air conditioning control panel 13 between the two photoelectric sensors 121, 122.
When the position of the remote controller 15 needs to be detected, the remote controller 15 is aligned with the signal receiving window 11, and after the position detection function key is pressed, the remote controller 15 emits position detection light to the light receiving portion 12. After receiving the position detection light, the two photoelectric sensors 121 and 122 convert the received light signals into electrical signals and transmit the electrical signals to the air conditioner control panel 13. The air conditioner control panel 13 calculates the difference between the electrical signals transmitted from the two photosensors, and determines the position of the remote controller based on the difference. Due to the existence of the blocking wall 14, when the remote controller is located at different positions, the intensities of the light rays received by the two photoelectric sensors are different, so that the position of the remote controller can be judged according to the difference value of the electric signals.
With reference to fig. 2, when the remote controller is located in the middle of the two photosensors, that is, the remote controller is substantially aligned with the blocking wall, the light intensities received by the two photosensors are substantially the same, so that the corresponding electrical signals of the photosensors are also the same, and the difference between the two electrical signals is 0, at this time, it can be determined that the remote controller is located in the middle of the two photosensors. The climate control panel 13 may control the blades 16 to blow air to the area where the remote control is located.
With continued reference to fig. 2, when the remote controller moves from the middle position to the right of the blocking wall to a certain position, the second photoelectric sensor 122 can receive all the light rays emitted thereto; however, due to the existence of the blocking wall 14, part of the light emitted to the first photosensor 121 is blocked by the blocking wall 14 and cannot reach the first photosensor 121, and thus, the light intensities received by the two photosensors are different. Moreover, when the remote controller is located at different positions, the difference between the light intensities received by the two photoelectric sensors is also different, so that the air conditioner control panel 13 can determine the position of the remote controller according to the difference between the electric signals corresponding to the two photoelectric sensors.
However, the conventional method for determining the position of the remote controller has the following defects:
1. due to the existence of the blocking wall, the photoelectric sensor blocked by the blocking wall receives few light, and when the light signal is converted into an electric signal, the electric signal is weaker, and the electric signal can not be captured by the air conditioner control panel, so that the sensitivity of the remote controller position judgment function is low.
2. Because the photosensitive surface of the photoelectric sensor is basically parallel to the signal receiving window, the size of the signal receiving window is larger, and the appearance of the air conditioner is influenced.
In the prior art, the air conditioner control panel 13 with the photoelectric sensor is fixed and attached in the following manner: the air conditioning control panel 13 is placed in a square case. However, in the process of mounting the air conditioner control panel 13 on the air conditioner, since the lead of the air conditioner control panel 13 needs to be connected to other leads on the air conditioner, the air conditioner control panel placed in the square housing is easily shaken by pulling the lead in the mounting process, and the position of the photoelectric sensor is changed, thereby causing a reduction in the position detection function of the remote controller of the air conditioner.
In the prior art, the air conditioning control panel 13 is further provided with a signal receiving part (not shown in the figure) and an amplifier (not shown in the figure), and the air conditioning control panel controls the signal receiving part and the amplifier. That is, in the related art, the control part of the signal receiving section, the control part of the amplifier, and the control part of the photosensor are integrated on one control panel, which also results in a large size of the signal receiving window in the related art.
Japanese publication JP Sho 62-233635, published 10/14 in 1987, discloses: an air conditioner having a remote controller position detection function, but the above technical problems are not solved.

Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which a signal receiving window and a control part located behind the signal receiving window are shown; fig. 4 is an enlarged view of a portion of fig. 3 where a signal receiving window is located. Referring to fig. 3 and 4, an air conditioner 20 with a remote controller position detecting function according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
a signal receiving window 22 on the air-conditioning case 21;
the light sensing part 23 is arranged behind the signal receiving window 22, the light sensing part 23 is used for receiving position detection light rays emitted by the remote controller, and the air conditioner judges the position of the remote controller according to the position detection light rays received by the light sensing part;
the light sensing section 23 includes: a first photosensor 231 and a second photosensor 232, the first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232 are arranged in an inclined opposite manner, the light sensing surfaces of the first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232 are both inclined to face the signal receiving window, and the light sensing surfaces of the first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232 are inclined to face each other. That is, the first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232 are disposed obliquely with an angle smaller than 90 degrees with respect to the air conditioning direction, and have light sensing surfaces facing the signal receiving window and obliquely facing each other.
Compared with the prior art, the photoelectric sensor which is basically parallel to the signal receiving window is obliquely arranged, so that the signal receiving window can be reduced, and the aesthetic feeling of the appearance of the air conditioner is improved.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the detection of the position of the remote controller in the embodiment of the present invention, in which a light-transmitting glass 26 is disposed on the signal receiving window.
Referring to fig. 5, since no obstacle such as a barrier wall of the related art for blocking light is disposed between the first and second photosensors 231 and 232, the detection light emitted to the positions of the photosensitive surfaces of the first and second photosensors 231 and 232 can be received by the photosensitive surfaces of the first and second photosensors 231 and 232. However, since both are inclined, when the remote controller is in different positions, the intensity of the position detection light beam directed to the light receiving surfaces of the first and second photosensors 231 and 232 is also different, and the position of the remote controller can be determined from the difference in intensity of the position detection light beam received by the first and second photosensors 231 and 232.
Referring to the state indicated by the dotted line remote controller in fig. 5, the remote controller 25 is located in the spatial range where the middle position of the first and second photosensors 231, 232 is located, and the intensity of the detection light rays emitted to the positions of the photosensitive surfaces of the first and second photosensors 231, 232 is the same; the electric signals corresponding to the position detection light received by the first and second photoelectric sensors 231, 232 are the same, and the remote controller can be determined to be in the middle position according to the difference zero between the electric signals of the two.
Referring to the state shown by the solid-line remote controller in fig. 5, in which the remote controller 25 is located on the left side of the neutral position, i.e., on the same side as the first photosensor 231, the position detection light emitted from the remote controller 25 to the second photosensor 232 is significantly greater in intensity than the position detection light emitted to the first photosensor 231. The position of the remote controller can be determined according to the difference of the intensity of the position detection light received by the first and second photoelectric sensors 231 and 232. This state is the left extreme position in fig. 5, and no position detection light is directed to the light-sensing surface of the first photosensor 231. On the right side of the position, the position detection light is emitted to the light-sensing surface of the first photosensor 231 and the light-sensing surface of the second photosensor 232. The right extreme position and so on.
Based on the analysis of the above principle, it can be known that: in the invention, the first photoelectric sensor and the second photoelectric sensor are obliquely arranged to realize the intensity difference of position detection light received by the respective photosensitive surfaces, thereby realizing the position detection of the remote controller.
Because the position detection light rays of the light-sensitive surfaces of the first photoelectric sensor 231 and the second photoelectric sensor 232 can be received by the corresponding photoelectric sensors, the phenomenon that the light rays are blocked by the blocking wall and wasted in the prior art can not occur, and therefore the position detection light rays received by the photoelectric sensors are relatively strong in intensity, the position of the remote controller can be better detected, and the sensitivity of the position detection function is improved.
In this embodiment, angles d1 and d2 between the light sensing surfaces of the first and second photosensors 231 and 232 and the direction ab perpendicular to the air conditioner are equal to each other, and are both 45 degrees. The first and second photosensors 231, 232 are photodiodes, and the photodiodes are attached to the sensor control panels 233, 234 in a sheet shape, so that an included angle between the sensor control panel and a direction perpendicular to the air conditioner is an included angle between the photosensitive surfaces of the first and second photosensors 231, 232 and the direction perpendicular to the air conditioner. In the present invention, the angles of d1 and d2 are not limited to 45 degrees, and may be any angle of 25 to 65 degrees (inclusive).
In the invention, the included angles between the first and second photoelectric sensors 231 and 232 and the direction perpendicular to the air conditioner can be set according to actual needs, the included angles between the first and second photoelectric sensors can be unequal, and the size of the included angle can also be set according to needs. In this embodiment, the number of the first and second photosensors 231 and 232 is two.
Fig. 6 is a diagram illustrating the positional relationship among the photoelectric sensor, the signal receiving unit, the amplifier, and the corresponding control panel in the embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 6 and 4, the air conditioner of the present embodiment further includes: the signal receiving unit 24 is configured to receive a control signal from a remote controller, and perform functions such as on/off, temperature adjustment, and humidity adjustment of the air conditioner. The signal receiving portion 24 is located behind the signal receiving window 22 and between the first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232.
The first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232 are disposed substantially symmetrically on the left and right sides of the signal receiving section 24. Since the control signal is also sent by the remote controller, it is ensured that the control signal sent by the remote controller and the position detection light can both pass through the signal receiving window 22 and then be received by the signal receiving portion and the light sensing portion, respectively. In this embodiment, the signal receiving unit 24 can detect the control signal sent by the remote controller within a range of 60 degrees on the left and right sides of the signal receiving unit 24. Referring to fig. 5, the angle c in fig. 5 is 60 degrees, which indicates that the remote controller 25 is at the left limit position, the signal receiving part 24 can just receive the control signal sent by the remote controller, and beyond this range, the signal receiving part cannot receive the control signal.
In this embodiment, d1 and d2 are both 45 degrees, the distance L between the first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232 is 10 mm, and the control signals sent by the remote controller can be detected within 60 degrees of the left and right sides of the signal receiving part. Under the above conditions, the size of the signal receiving window is approximately 40 mm 23 mm, and the size of the signal receiving window is small, so that the influence on the appearance of the air conditioner is small.
With continued reference to fig. 6, the air conditioner of the present embodiment further includes: an amplifier 27 located behind the signal receiving section 24; a first sensor control panel 233 and a second sensor control panel 234, wherein the first photoelectric sensor 231 is attached to the first sensor control panel 233, and the second photoelectric sensor 232 is attached to the second sensor control panel 234; a receiver control panel 28 located behind the first sensor control panel 233 and the second sensor control panel 234, and the signal receiver 24 located on the receiver control panel 28; the amplifier control panel 29 is located behind the receiving section control panel 28, and the amplifier 27 is located on the amplifier control panel 29.
Compared with the prior art in which the amplifier, the signal receiving part and the photoelectric sensor are all located on one control panel, in the embodiment, the amplifier, the signal receiving part and the photoelectric sensor are respectively provided with own control panels, so that the size of the signal receiving window can be further reduced by dividing the existing control panel into three.
In order to fix the amplifier, the signal receiving part and the photoelectric sensor, the invention also provides a fixing bracket, and the amplifier, the signal receiving part, the photoelectric sensor and the respective control panels are fixed on the bracket.
Fig. 7 is an exploded perspective view of a fixing bracket and respective components fixed by the fixing bracket according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 8 is a perspective view of a fixing bracket and respective components fixed by the fixing bracket according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The space in the amplifier cradle 50 for mounting the amplifier control panel is adapted to the shape of the amplifier control panel.
Fig. 9 is a perspective view of a light sensing section holder according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 10 is a view showing a state where a sensor control panel is mounted on the light sensing section holder. Referring to fig. 9 and 10, the light-sensing-section holder 30 includes:
a first housing chamber 31 and a second housing chamber 32 which are oppositely arranged and connected together; the first and second receiving chambers 31 and 32 are respectively used for clamping a first sensor control panel 233 and a second sensor control panel 234, and the first and second photoelectric sensors 231 and 232 are respectively attached to the first and second sensor control panels 233 and 234;
the first receiving chamber 31 and the second receiving chamber 32 have openings 33, and the light-sensing surfaces of the photosensors are exposed through the openings 33 to receive the position detection light emitted from the remote controller. Referring to fig. 8, the light sensing surfaces of the first photosensor 231 and the second photosensor 232 are all exposed through the opening 33.
Because the sensor control panel is clamped in the accommodating chamber, the sensor control panel cannot shake due to the traction of the lead, and the phenomenon of dislocation of the photoelectric sensor on the sensor control panel is avoided, so that the normal use of the air conditioner position detection function is ensured.
In this embodiment, the first housing chamber 31 and the second housing chamber 32 have the same structure, and each of them includes: a top cover 321 provided with the opening 33, and a bottom wall 322 provided opposite to the top cover 321. The top cover 321 is hinged with the bottom wall 322, and the top cover 321 can rotate around the hinged position of the top cover 321 and the bottom wall to realize the opening and closing of the top cover 321, so that the sensor control panel is convenient to take and place; and, when the top cap lid closes on the diapire, with the diapire joint together, prevent to be located the sensor control panel who accepts in the room and appear the phenomenon of rocking.

Since the thickness of the hinge column 323 is smaller than the thickness of the top cover 321 and the thickness of the bottom wall 322, the top cover can still rotate towards or away from the bottom wall with the hinge column as a central axis although the hinge column 323 is integrally connected with the top cover 321 and the bottom wall 322. In the present invention, the thickness of the hinge column 323 is smaller than one of the thickness of the top cover 321 and the thickness of the bottom wall 322, so that the top cover can rotate around the hinge column.
In this embodiment, the thickness of the hinge post is less than or equal to 1/2 the thickness of the top cover and less than or equal to 1/2 the thickness of the bottom wall.
