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 at an upper portion of the indoor heat exchanger B, and a second fan E disposed at 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 is formed by heat exchange by the indoor heat exchanger B and flows out from the front air outlet a2 of the front panel A8 and the air outlet mesh enclosure L, and another part of the air flows out through the third air outlet A3. Specifically, the first fan D drives air to flow from the air inlet a1 to the front air outlet a2, that is, the air sent by the air inlet a1 can be driven by the first fan D and guided out from the front air outlet a2, and the second fan E drives air to flow from the air inlet a1 to the front air outlet a2 or 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:
and S1, after the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode, determining the current self-cleaning stage of the air conditioner, wherein the self-cleaning stage of the air conditioner comprises a frost stage.
And S2, when the air conditioner is in a frost stage, controlling the air conditioner to keep refrigerating operation, wherein the first fan is controlled to stop running, and the second fan is controlled to run at a preset rotating speed n.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, the preset rotation speed n is determined based on a pressure parameter in the air conditioner.
It should be noted that the preset rotation speed n is determined based on parameters of pressure in the air conditioner, such as compressor discharge pressure and return air pressure.
Further in accordance with an embodiment of the invention, the preset rotation speed N is greater than a first rotation speed threshold N0And is less than or equal to a second rotating speed threshold value N0+ K, wherein the first rotational speed threshold N0Obtained through experiments.
It can be understood that when the air conditioner is in a frost stage, the air conditioner is controlled to keep a cooling operation, wherein the first fan is controlled to stop operating, so that the upper part of the corresponding indoor heat exchanger is frosted quickly, and the second fan is controlled to operate at a preset rotating speed n. When the first fan is controlled to stop operating, and the second fan is controlled to rotate at a preset rotation speed N ═ N0When the air conditioner runs, the pressure in the air conditioner can not exceed the maximum pressure born by the coil pipe in the air conditioner and the maximum pressure born by the compressor, and the second fan is controlled to rotate at a preset speed N which is less than or equal to N0+ K operation is performed to ensure a certain frost formation at the lower part of the indoor heat exchanger.
Therefore, in the frost stage, the first fan is controlled to stop running, and the second fan is controlled to run at the preset rotating speed, so that the problem of overhigh system pressure caused by the fact that the two fans are completely closed can be effectively avoided.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the self-cleaning stage of the air conditioner further includes a condensing stage before the defrosting stage, and the method further includes: and when the air conditioner is in a condensation stage, controlling the air conditioner to perform refrigeration operation, wherein the first fan and the second fan are controlled to operate.
Further, according to an embodiment of the present invention, in the condensation phase, the first fan operation is controlled at a first target rotation speed, and the second fan operation is controlled at a second target rotation speed, wherein the first target rotation speed and the second target rotation speed are determined based on the indoor ambient temperature and humidity.
It can be understood that, after the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode, the indoor ambient temperature and humidity are first detected, and the target rotation speeds of the first and second fans, i.e., the first and second target rotation speeds, are determined according to the indoor ambient temperature and 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.
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 air conditioner is in a defrosting and drying stage, the air conditioner is controlled to perform heating operation, wherein the first fan and the second fan are controlled to operate.

In addition, it should be noted that, when the air conditioner is in the defrosting and drying stage, the rotation speeds of the first fan and the second fan are in positive correlation with the outdoor temperature, that is, the higher the outdoor temperature is, the higher the rotation speeds of the first fan and the second fan are correspondingly increased, so as to reduce the pressure in the air conditioner.
In the defrosting process of the indoor heat exchanger, the lower part of the indoor heat exchanger can be cleaned by condensed water formed by defrosting the lower part of the indoor heat exchanger, and a large amount of condensed water formed by defrosting the upper part of the indoor heat exchanger washes the lower part of the indoor heat exchanger downwards due to the action of gravity, so that the lower part of the indoor heat exchanger can be cleaned for the second time.

Therefore, after the air conditioner enters the self-cleaning mode, the indoor environment temperature and humidity are detected firstly, the mapping relation between the amount of condensed water and the first operation time period t1 is established according to the indoor environment temperature and humidity, and the first operation time period t1 can be determined according to the mapping relation between the amount of condensed water and the first operation time period t 1. And determining a third operation time period t3 according to the indoor environment humidity, wherein the third operation time period t3 and the indoor environment humidity form a positive correlation relationship, 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.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the self-cleaning control method of an air conditioner further includes: sending out reminding information when the condition of the air conditioner is determined to meet the self-cleaning condition; receiving a self-cleaning instruction input by a user; and controlling the air conditioner to enter a self-cleaning mode according to the self-cleaning instruction.

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.
