The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are illustrative and intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
First, the structure and operation of the indoor unit of the air conditioner will be briefly explained with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 3 to 5, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner includes an indoor heat exchanger B, a first fan D disposed opposite to an upper portion of the indoor heat exchanger B, and a second fan E disposed opposite to a lower portion of the indoor heat exchanger B.
In addition, an air inlet mesh enclosure M is arranged at the rear side of the indoor heat exchanger B, and an air outlet mesh enclosure L covers the front ends of the first air outlet a21 and the second air outlet a22 and is connected to the front air outlet a 2. The first air outlet A21 is communicated with the air inlet A1, a first fan D is arranged in a first air channel A4 formed by communication, the second air outlet A22 is communicated with the air inlet A1, a second fan E is arranged in a second air channel A5 formed by communication, and the first fan D and the second fan E are respectively and independently controlled. It should be noted that the first fan D may be an axial flow fan, and the second fan E may be a centrifugal fan.
In some embodiments of the present invention, after the air enters the indoor unit 100 from the air inlet mesh enclosure M, a part of the air formed by heat exchange by the indoor heat exchanger B flows outwards from the front air outlet a2 of the front panel A8 and the air outlet mesh enclosure L, and another part flows outwards through the third air outlet A3.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a self-cleaning control method of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the self-cleaning control method of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the steps of:
s1, acquiring the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity after the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode, wherein the self-cleaning mode includes a condensation phase.
It should be noted that the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity may refer to an indoor ambient temperature and an indoor ambient humidity, and may also refer to an outdoor ambient temperature and an outdoor ambient humidity.
It is understood that the condensing stage refers to a stage in which the indoor heat exchanger generates condensed water.
And S2, determining a first operation time length t1 according to the environmental temperature and the environmental humidity and through a target mapping relation.
Wherein, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the target mapping relationship is determined based on a relationship between the amount of condensed water and the cooling operation time period.
It can be understood that, when the amount of the condensed water is constant, the ambient humidity is higher, and the difference between the ambient temperature and the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is higher, the first operation time period t1 is shorter; the smaller the ambient humidity and the smaller the difference between the ambient temperature and the indoor heat exchanger temperature, the larger the first operation time period t 1. Therefore, after the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode, the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity are detected firstly, according to the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity, the mapping relation between the amount of condensed water and the refrigerating operation time length, namely the first operation time length t1 can be established, and then the first operation time length t1 can be determined through the mapping relation between the amount of condensed water and the first operation time length t 1.
And S3, controlling the air conditioner to perform refrigerating operation when the air conditioner is in a condensation stage until a first operation time period t1 is reached.
According to one embodiment of the invention, when the air conditioner is in the condensation stage, the first fan and the second fan are also controlled to operate.
It can be understood that when the air conditioner is in the condensing stage, the air conditioner is controlled to perform a cooling operation and the compressor is operated at the highest frequency, wherein the first fan and the second fan are controlled to operate, so that the humid air and the indoor heat exchanger can be brought into contact, thereby generating condensed water in the indoor heat exchanger.
Specifically, according to one embodiment of the invention, when the air conditioner is in a condensation stage, the first fan is controlled to operate at a first target rotating speed, and the second fan is controlled to operate at a second target rotating speed, wherein the first target rotating speed and the second target rotating speed are determined based on the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity.
It can be understood that, after the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode, the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity are first detected, and the target rotation speeds of the first fan and the second fan, i.e., the first target rotation speed and the second target rotation speed, are determined according to the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity. And the air conditioner enters a condensation stage, and the air conditioner is controlled to perform refrigeration operation, wherein the compressor is controlled to operate at the highest frequency, the first fan is controlled to operate at a first target rotating speed, and the second fan is controlled to operate at a second target rotating speed.

The second operation time period t2 may be 10min, and may be specifically determined according to the type of the air conditioner.
Further, according to an embodiment of the present invention, when the air conditioner is in a frost stage, the first fan and the second fan are also controlled to reduce the rotation speed, or the first fan and the second fan are controlled to stop operating. Wherein the compressor frequency remains unchanged, i.e. still runs at the highest frequency.
It can be understood that the indoor heat exchanger can be frosted by controlling the first fan and the second fan to reduce the rotation speed or controlling the first fan and the second fan to stop running.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, after the defrosting stage, the self-cleaning stage of the air conditioner further includes a defrosting drying stage, and the method further includes: when the time of refrigerating operation of the air conditioner in the defrosting stage reaches a second operation time t2, controlling the air conditioner to enter a defrosting and drying stage; and when the air conditioner is in the defrosting and drying stage, controlling the air conditioner to perform heating operation until the time for the air conditioner to perform heating operation in the defrosting and drying stage reaches a third operation time period t 3.
It should be noted that, when the air conditioner is in the defrosting and drying stage, the first fan and the second fan may not be controlled to operate, or the first fan and the second fan may be controlled to operate simultaneously, wherein the rotating speeds of the first fan and the second fan may be both p%, and the value range of p may be 1-5.
It can be understood that after the defrosting stage is finished, the air conditioner enters a defrosting and drying stage, and the air conditioner is controlled to perform heating operation so as to defrost and dry the indoor heat exchanger. And when the time for heating operation of the air conditioner in the defrosting and drying stage reaches a third operation time period t3, controlling the air conditioner to exit the self-cleaning mode, and restarting the air conditioner to enter the working mode set by the user.
Wherein the third period of operation t3 is determined based on the ambient humidity, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
It can be understood that the third operation time period t3 is in positive correlation with the indoor environment humidity, that is, the larger the indoor environment humidity is, the larger the third operation time period t3 is, the smaller the indoor environment humidity is, and the smaller the third operation time period t3 is, so that after the environment humidity is obtained, the third operation time period t3 can be determined according to the environment humidity.
Therefore, the first operation time of the condensation stage is determined through the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity and the target mapping relation, the third operation time of the defrosting and drying stage is determined through the ambient humidity, the second operation time of the defrosting stage is determined through the specific model of the air conditioner, the time distribution is more reasonable and intelligent, and the indoor heat exchanger can be cleaned more thoroughly.

It can be understood that after the air conditioner is started, the air conditioner firstly calculates a time interval t from the last self-cleaning mode, and judges whether the indoor heat exchanger needs to be cleaned according to the time interval t, namely, judges whether the state of the air conditioner meets the self-cleaning condition, specifically, when the time interval t is greater than or equal to a preset time t', the state of the air conditioner is determined to meet the self-cleaning condition, and at the moment, a user can be reminded of cleaning the indoor heat exchanger in a voice or display mode.
When a user needs to select the self-cleaning function, a self-cleaning instruction can be input through an air conditioner remote controller, and the control device controls the air conditioner to enter the self-cleaning mode when receiving the self-cleaning instruction of the user. If the user does not need to select the self-cleaning function, the control device controls the air conditioner to enter the working mode set by the user.
