It should be understood that the data so used may be interchanged under appropriate circumstances such that embodiments of the present disclosure described herein may be made. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," as well as any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the light source and the photosensitive device are respectively arranged on two sides of the heat exchanger of the air conditioner, so that the filth blockage degree of the heat exchanger can be detected through the light source and the photosensitive device, and the self-cleaning operation of the air conditioner can be carried out when the filth blockage degree reaches a set degree.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an air conditioner with self-cleaning control according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the air conditioner includes: an optical detection device 100 and a self-cleaning control device 200. The optical detection device 100 includes a light source 110 and a matching photosensitive device 120, and the light source 110 and the photosensitive device 120 are respectively located at two sides of an air conditioner heat exchanger, where the heat exchanger may be an indoor heat exchanger or an outdoor heat exchanger. The self-cleaning control device is distributed in communication with the light source 110 and the photosensitive device 120.
After the light source 110 emits light with a set wavelength, the photosensitive device 120 may output different sensing values according to the intensity of the sensed light, where the sensing values are generally electric signals, and the self-cleaning control device 200 may obtain the electric signals output by the photosensitive device 120. Since the light source 110 and the light sensing device 120 are respectively located at both sides of the heat exchanger of the air conditioner, when there is dirt on the heat exchanger, for example: the distribution and thickness of the dust and dirt are different, and the intensity of the light sensed by the photosensitive device 120 is also different, so that the electrical signal output by the photosensitive device 120 can reflect the degree of dirt blockage of the heat exchanger.
The self-cleaning control device 200 may pre-store a correspondence between the sensed value of the photosensitive device and the dirty/clogged value of the heat exchanger, which is specifically related to the type of the air conditioner, the installation position of the light source and the photosensitive device. In this way, after the light source 110 is started, the self-cleaning control device 200 may obtain the current sensing value collected by the photosensitive device 120, and may determine the current filth blockage value corresponding to the current sensing value according to the corresponding relationship between the stored photosensitive device sensing value and the heat exchanger filth blockage value, thereby controlling the air conditioner to perform self-cleaning operation when the current filth blockage value is greater than the set value. Namely, the self-cleaning control device 200 is configured to obtain a current sensed value collected by the photosensitive device 120 when it is determined that the light source 110 is activated, determine a current filth blockage value corresponding to the current sensed value according to a correspondence between the stored photosensitive device sensed value and the heat exchanger filth blockage value, and control the air conditioner to perform self-cleaning operation when the current filth blockage value is greater than a set value.
In some embodiments, as in fig. 1, the air conditioner further comprises: the ultraviolet sterilizing apparatus 300 located above the heat exchanger, the self-cleaning control apparatus 200, is further configured to control the ultraviolet sterilizing apparatus 300 to perform a sterilizing operation in case it is determined that the self-cleaning operation is completed. The air conditioner not only has a self-cleaning function, but also can be sterilized and disinfected, so that the cleanness of the air conditioner is further improved, and the health of a user is further guaranteed.
In some embodiments, the self-cleaning control apparatus 200 is further configured to receive a filth detection request transmitted from the remote control terminal. Thus, the self-cleaning control device 200 may send a start instruction to the light source 110 according to the received filth blockage detection request, control the light source 110 to start, and may obtain the current sensing value acquired by the photosensitive device 120 in real time or at regular time, determine the current filth blockage value corresponding to the current sensing value according to the corresponding relationship between the stored photosensitive device sensing value and the heat exchanger filth blockage value, and control the air conditioner to perform self-cleaning operation when the current filth blockage value is greater than the set value.
In the disclosed embodiment, the light source 110 can generate light with a set wavelength, and in some embodiments, the light source 110 includes: an infrared light source or an ultraviolet light source. Therefore, the influence of visible light can be avoided, the accuracy and the stability of heat exchanger filth blockage detection are further improved, and the precision of air conditioner self-cleaning control is improved.
The air conditioner heat exchanger has optical detection devices, i.e. light source and corresponding photosensitive device, on its two sides, and can be self-cleaned.
Fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a self-cleaning control method for an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The air conditioner includes: and the light source and the photosensitive device are respectively positioned at two sides of the heat exchanger. As shown in fig. 2, the process for air conditioner self-cleaning control includes:
step 201: and under the condition that the light source in the air conditioner is determined to be started, acquiring a current induction value acquired by a photosensitive device in the air conditioner.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the light source and the corresponding photosensitive device are respectively located at two sides of the heat exchanger, so that the light source in the air conditioner can communicate with the photosensitive device under the condition of determining the starting of the light source, the induction value collected by the photosensitive device can be obtained in real time or at regular time, and the obtained induction value is the current induction value after sampling every time.
Typically, an activation instruction is sent to the light source, which may determine that the light source in the air conditioner is activated. Alternatively, it may be determined that the light source in the air conditioner is activated when the power supply port of the power supply is detected to be at a high level. The details are not listed.
Step 202: and determining a current filth blockage value corresponding to the current induction value according to the corresponding relation between the stored induction value of the photosensitive device and the filth blockage value of the heat exchanger.
The corresponding relation between the induction value of the photosensitive device and the filth blockage value of the heat exchanger can be obtained and stored after the installation positions of the light source and the photosensitive device are determined for the same air conditioner. Therefore, the current filth blockage value corresponding to the current induction value can be determined according to the corresponding relation between the stored induction value of the photosensitive device and the filth blockage value of the heat exchanger.
Step 203: and controlling the air conditioner to perform self-cleaning operation under the condition that the current filth blockage value is larger than a set value.
Similarly, a filth blockage alarm value, namely a set value, can be preset, and if the current filth blockage value is larger than the set value, the self-cleaning function of the air conditioner can be triggered, and the air conditioner can be controlled to perform self-cleaning operation. When the air conditioner is self-cleaned, the surface of the heat exchanger coil pipe can be cooled to frost, particles such as bacteria and dust are peeled off, then defrosting is carried out, and the frost is changed into water to wash away the bacteria and dust. After the self-cleaning is finished, the dirt on the heat exchanger is reduced, so that the detected current filth blockage value is smaller than a set value, the detection can be timed or real-time, and once the detected current filth blockage value is larger than the set value, the self-cleaning operation can be carried out once.
It is thus clear that in this embodiment, light source and photosensitive device are disposed respectively to air conditioner heat exchanger's both sides, like this, can detect the stifled degree of filth of heat exchanger through light source and photosensitive device to when stifled degree of filth reaches the settlement degree, can carry out the operation of air conditioner automatically cleaning, like this, in time wash the dirt on the heat exchanger, reduced bacterial growing's probability, not only improved the heat exchange efficiency of heat exchanger, also ensured user's health.
Of course, in some embodiments, the air conditioner further includes an ultraviolet sterilization device located above the heat exchanger, and therefore, after controlling the air conditioner to perform the self-cleaning operation, the method further includes: and controlling an ultraviolet sterilization device of the air conditioner to perform sterilization operation under the condition that the self-cleaning operation is determined to be completed. Therefore, the air conditioner not only has a self-cleaning function, but also can be sterilized and disinfected, so that the cleanness of the air conditioner is further improved, and the health of a user is further ensured.
In some embodiments, before acquiring the current sensing value acquired by the photosensitive device, the method further includes: and receiving a filth blockage detection request sent by the remote control terminal. The method comprises the steps of acquiring a current induction value acquired by a photosensitive device in real time or at regular time after receiving a filth blockage detection request sent by a remote control terminal, determining a current filth blockage value corresponding to the current induction value according to a corresponding relation between the stored induction value of the photosensitive device and a filth blockage value of a heat exchanger, and controlling the air conditioner to perform self-cleaning operation under the condition that the current filth blockage value is larger than a set value. Therefore, resources are saved, and the flexibility of self-cleaning operation is improved.
The following operation flows are integrated into a specific embodiment to illustrate a self-cleaning control process for an air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the present invention.
In this embodiment, the infrared light source and the corresponding photosensitive device are respectively configured on both sides of the indoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner, and the corresponding relationship between the sensing value of the photosensitive device and the filth blockage value of the heat exchanger is also stored.
Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of a self-cleaning control method for an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Referring to fig. 3, a process for self-cleaning control of an air conditioner includes:
step 301: is it determined whether a filth blockage detection request transmitted from a remote control terminal is received? If yes, go to step 302, otherwise, go back to step 301.
In the embodiment, dirty blockage detection is performed according to the instruction, and occupation of resources is reduced.
Step 302: and sending a starting instruction to the infrared light source arranged on the inner side of the indoor heat exchanger to control the infrared light source to start and operate.
Step 303: and acquiring a current induction value acquired by a photosensitive device arranged outside the indoor heat exchanger.
The current induction value can be acquired in a timing or real-time manner.
Step 304: and determining a current filth blockage value corresponding to the current induction value according to the corresponding relation between the stored induction value of the photosensitive device and the filth blockage value of the heat exchanger.
Step 305: is the current filth blockage value greater than the set value determined? If yes, go to step 306, otherwise return to step 303.
Step 306: and controlling the air conditioner to perform self-cleaning operation.
Step 307: is it determined whether the self-cleaning operation is completed? If yes, go to step 308, otherwise, go back to step 306.
The self-cleaning operation may be determined according to the time of the self-cleaning operation, for example, the self-cleaning operation may be completed after 30 minutes. Or, the self-cleaning operation is determined by the filth blockage value, that is, the current filth blockage value corresponding to the self-cleaning operation is obtained again, and if the current filth blockage value is smaller than the cleaning set value, the self-cleaning operation can be determined to be completed, specifically, the filth blockage values are listed one by one.
Step 308: and controlling an ultraviolet sterilization device positioned above the indoor heat exchanger to perform sterilization operation, sending an operation stop instruction to the infrared light source, and controlling the infrared light source to stop emitting light. The process is finished.
The self-cleaning process is completed, and the power supply to the light source is stopped, so that the resources are further saved.
It is thus clear that in this embodiment, light source and photosensitive device are configured respectively to air conditioner heat exchanger's both sides, and like this, after receiving filth stifled detection instruction, accessible light source and photosensitive device detectable heat exchanger's filth stifled degree to when filth stifled degree reaches the settlement degree, can carry out the operation of air conditioner automatically cleaning, like this, in time wash the dirt on the heat exchanger, reduced bacterial growing's probability, not only improved the heat exchange efficiency of heat exchanger, also ensured user's health. And the air conditioner can also be sterilized and disinfected, so that the cleanness of the air conditioner is further improved, and the health of a user is further guaranteed.
