In order that the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention can be more clearly understood, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to the appended drawings. It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other without conflict.
In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, however, the present invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described herein, and thus the scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
An air conditioner, a control method thereof, a control apparatus thereof, and a computer-readable storage medium according to some embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to fig. 1 to 10 of the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, an air conditioner according to some embodiments of the present invention includes a compressor 1, a reversing assembly 2, an outdoor heat exchanger 3, an indoor heat exchanger 7, an outdoor fan 4, an indoor fan 8, a throttle mechanism 5, a first switching device 6, and a controller.
The compressor 1 has a discharge port 11 and a suction port 12.
The direction changing unit 2 has first to fourth ports, the first port being connected to the exhaust port 11, and the third port being connected to the suction port 12.
The first end and the second port of the outdoor heat exchanger 3 are connected through a first pipeline 9, the first end and the fourth port of the indoor heat exchanger 7 are connected through a second pipeline 10, the second end of the outdoor heat exchanger 3 and the second end of the indoor heat exchanger 7 are connected through a third pipeline 20, and the throttling mechanism 5 is arranged on the third pipeline 20 and used for controlling the on-off of the third pipeline 20.
The controller is respectively electrically connected with the throttling mechanism 5 and the first switching device 6, the throttling mechanism 5 receives a control signal sent by the controller and controls the on-off of the third pipeline 20 according to the control signal, and the first switching device 6 receives the control signal sent by the controller and controls the on-off of the pipeline where the first switching device is located according to the control signal.
The first embodiment is as follows:
as shown in fig. 1, the first switching device 6 is disposed on the first pipeline 9 and is used for controlling on/off of the first pipeline 9, and the compressor 1, the first switching device 6, the outdoor heat exchanger 3, the throttling mechanism 5, and the indoor heat exchanger 7 are sequentially connected to form a refrigerant circulation loop.
In the refrigeration cycle, the refrigerant discharged from the discharge port 11 of the compressor 1 flows back to the suction port 12 of the compressor 1 through the reversing assembly 2, the outdoor heat exchanger 3, the throttling mechanism 5 and the indoor heat exchanger 7. In the heating cycle, the refrigerant discharged from the discharge port 11 of the compressor 1 flows back to the suction port 12 of the compressor 1 through the direction changing unit 2, the indoor heat exchanger 7, the throttle mechanism 5, and the outdoor heat exchanger 3.
In the air conditioner provided by the above embodiment of the present invention, in response to the shutdown instruction, the throttling mechanism 5 is controlled to be closed, so that the third pipeline 20 is disconnected, the compressor 1 is maintained to continue to operate, and the first switching device 6 is turned on, so that the first pipeline 9 is turned on. Therefore, when the air conditioner is turned off in a refrigeration mode, the compressor 1 continues to operate, and the refrigerant discharged from the exhaust port 11 of the compressor 1 is stored in the outdoor heat exchanger 3, so that the amount of the refrigerant on the outdoor side is larger than that of the refrigerant on the indoor side and is consistent with the amount of the refrigerant on the outdoor side which is larger than that of the refrigerant on the indoor side when the air conditioner reaches a stable operation state, the refrigerant of the air conditioner reaches the state of stable operation as soon as possible, the high-low pressure difference for establishing system balance is accelerated, and the refrigeration speed of the air conditioner is increased when the air conditioner is turned on next time. When the air conditioner is turned off in the heating mode, the compressor 1 continues to operate, and the refrigerant discharged from the exhaust port 11 of the compressor 1 is stored in the indoor heat exchanger 7, so that the amount of the indoor side refrigerant is larger than that of the outdoor side refrigerant and is consistent with the amount of the indoor side refrigerant which is larger than that of the outdoor side refrigerant when the air conditioner reaches a stable operation state, the refrigerant of the air conditioner reaches the stable operation state as soon as possible, the high-low pressure difference for establishing system balance is accelerated, and the heating speed of the air conditioner is improved when the air conditioner is turned on next time.
Further, the first switching device 6 includes a first electromagnetic valve, which may be, but is not limited to, a first one-way electromagnetic shutoff valve or a first two-way electromagnetic shutoff valve.
The first bidirectional electromagnetic stop valve or the first one-way electromagnetic stop valve can realize the control of the on-off of the first pipeline 9 or the second pipeline 10, wherein the control of the first one-way electromagnetic stop valve is simpler and has lower cost.
It is understood that the first switching device 6 may be other shut valves having the same function in addition to the first one-way electromagnetic shut valve and the first two-way electromagnetic shut valve.
Further, the throttle means 5 includes a shut-off throttle means 5 that can be shut off, such as an electronic expansion valve.
The cut-off throttling mechanism 5 has a cut-off function, so the cut-off throttling mechanism 5 can control the on-off of the third pipeline 20, and a switch device for controlling the third pipeline 20 is not needed to be arranged at the moment, so the structure of the air conditioner is further simplified, and the cost of the air conditioner is reduced.
The electronic expansion valve can effectively improve the intelligent level of the air conditioner and improve the control precision of the air conditioner.
Example two:
as shown in fig. 2, the difference from the first embodiment is that a first switch device 6 is disposed on the second pipeline 10 for controlling the on/off of the second pipeline 10.
In response to the shutdown instruction, the throttle mechanism 5 is controlled to be closed, so that the third pipeline 20 is disconnected, the compressor 1 is maintained to continue to operate, and the first switching device 6 is opened, so that the second pipeline 10 is conducted. Therefore, when the air conditioner is turned off in a refrigeration mode, the compressor 1 continues to operate, and the refrigerant discharged from the exhaust port 11 of the compressor 1 is stored in the outdoor heat exchanger 3, so that the amount of the refrigerant on the outdoor side is larger than that of the refrigerant on the indoor side and is consistent with the amount of the refrigerant on the outdoor side which is larger than that of the refrigerant on the indoor side when the air conditioner reaches a stable operation state, the refrigerant of the air conditioner reaches the state of stable operation as soon as possible, the high-low pressure difference for establishing system balance is accelerated, and the refrigeration speed of the air conditioner is increased when the air conditioner is turned on next time. When the air conditioner is turned off in the heating mode, the compressor 1 continues to operate, and the refrigerant discharged from the exhaust port 11 of the compressor 1 is stored in the indoor heat exchanger 7, so that the amount of the indoor side refrigerant is larger than that of the outdoor side refrigerant and is consistent with the amount of the indoor side refrigerant which is larger than that of the outdoor side refrigerant when the air conditioner reaches a stable operation state, the refrigerant of the air conditioner reaches the stable operation state as soon as possible, the high-low pressure difference for establishing system balance is accelerated, and the heating speed of the air conditioner is improved when the air conditioner is turned on next time.
Example three:
as shown in fig. 3, the difference from the first embodiment is that the throttling mechanism 5 includes a throttling mechanism body 51 and a second switching device 52 connected in series, the third pipeline 20 is divided into a first sub-pipeline 201 and a second sub-pipeline 202 by the throttling mechanism body, and the second switching device 52 is disposed on the first sub-pipeline 201 and electrically connected to the controller to control the on-off of the first sub-pipeline 201 according to the received control signal of the controller, or the second switching device 52 is disposed on the second sub-pipeline 202 and electrically connected to the controller to control the on-off of the second sub-pipeline 202 according to the received control signal of the controller. The first sub-pipeline 201 and the second sub-pipeline 202 where the second switch device 52 is located can be switched on and off by controlling the second switch device 52.
The throttle body 51 may have a cut-off function, and at this time, the throttle body 51 may also be used to control the on/off of the third pipeline 20, for example, the throttle body 51 is an electronic expansion valve, so if the pipeline where the throttle 5 is located needs to be controlled to be conducted, the second switch device 52 and the throttle body 51 need to be controlled to be opened at the same time; the throttle body may also have no shut-off function, for example, the throttle body is a capillary tube or a thermostatic expansion valve.
The on-off control of the third pipeline 20 is realized through the combination of the throttle mechanism body 51 and the second switch device 52, so that the refrigerant can be stored in the outdoor heat exchanger 3 or the indoor heat exchanger 7 when the air conditioner shutdown compressor 1 continues to operate, and the cooling or heating speed is increased when the air conditioner is started next time.
Further, the second switching device 52 includes a second one-way electromagnetic shutoff valve or a second two-way electromagnetic shutoff valve.
The on-off of the third pipeline 20 can be controlled by the second one-way electromagnetic cut-off valve or the second two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve, for example, if the second switch device 52 is located on the first sub-pipeline 201, the on-off of the first sub-pipeline 201 is controlled by the second switch device 52, and if the second switch device 52 is located on the second sub-pipeline 202, the on-off of the second sub-pipeline 202 is controlled by the second switch device 52.
Further, the throttle mechanism body 51 includes a capillary tube, an electronic expansion valve, or a thermal expansion valve.
The capillary tube and the thermostatic expansion valve have simple structures and low cost, and the electronic expansion valve can effectively improve the intelligent level of the air conditioner and improve the control precision of the air conditioner.
Example four:
