Like this, under the mode of disinfecting of air conditioner, the module of disinfecting can adjust its current running state according to different shielding condition, makes the air conditioner can carry out the sterilization treatment of air with shielding information assorted running mode, avoids the module of disinfecting to cause the injury to user's healthy when there is exposing. Therefore, the air conditioner executing the control method not only can play a role in sterilizing indoor air, but also can effectively avoid adverse effects of the sterilizing module on the health of the user, and improves the safety of the user in using the air conditioner with the sterilizing function.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the shielding information is used for representing a shielding condition of the sterilization module by the air conditioning shell.
In practical application, under the circumstances that the module of disinfecting includes ultraviolet irradiation structure, the panel lock of air conditioner and the mode operation of disinfecting, at this moment, the module of disinfecting has effective shielding, and the ultraviolet that ultraviolet irradiation structure transmitted is less to user's healthy influence. Under the condition that the sterilization module comprises an ultraviolet irradiation structure, the sterilization mode of the air conditioner is operated, but the panel is in a non-buckling state, at the moment, the sterilization module is not effectively shielded, ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet irradiation structure can irradiate to an indoor space where the air conditioner is located from an opening, and if a user exists in the indoor space, the body health of the user can be adversely affected.
Optionally, the air conditioner is provided with a movable panel and a first distance sensor arranged on the inner wall of the panel, wherein the first distance sensor is used for detecting a first interval distance between the inner wall of the panel and the evaporator; the shielding information of the sterilization module is determined by the following method: acquiring a first interval distance detected by a first distance sensor; and determining shielding information of the sterilization module according to a comparison result of the first interval distance and the preset shielding distance.
In practical application, the sterilization module is positioned on the inner wall of the panel, and the first interval distance can reflect the position conditions of the panel and the evaporator; the first separation distance can reflect the position information of the sterilization module to a certain extent.

S11, the air conditioner acquires a first interval distance detected by the first distance sensor.
S12, the air conditioner determines shielding information of the sterilization module according to a comparison result of the first interval distance and a preset shielding distance.
In this way, a first distance sensor is arranged on the inner wall of the panel of the air conditioner, and whether the sterilization module is effectively shielded or not is determined by analyzing the detection data of the first distance sensor; and providing an information foundation for further determining a target operation mode which accords with the current shielding condition of the sterilization module.
Optionally, determining the shielding information of the sterilization module according to the comparison result of the first interval distance and the preset shielding distance includes: determining that the shielding information indicates that the sterilization module does not perform safety shielding under the condition that the first interval distance is larger than or equal to a preset shielding distance; and under the condition that the first interval distance is smaller than the preset shielding distance, determining shielding information to indicate that the sterilization module performs safety shielding.
The shielding information of the sterilization module at least comprises that the sterilization module performs safety shielding and the sterilization module does not perform safety shielding.

Therefore, ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet irradiation structure can be effectively prevented from being directly irradiated to eyes of a user, and adverse effects are caused on vision health of the user.
Optionally, in the sterilization mode operation, if the ultraviolet irradiation structure is controlled to be closed based on the shielding information, the ion release structure can be simultaneously opened, so that the ion release structure releases sterilization ions, and the effect that the air conditioner continuously sterilizes the air in the space where the air conditioner is located is achieved.
Optionally, after the ultraviolet irradiation structure of the sterilization module is controlled to be turned off, the method for controlling an air conditioner further comprises: and pushing prompt information for closing the sterilization mode to the user. The prompting information is pushed to remind a user to lock a panel of the air conditioner or remind the user to close a sterilization mode of the air conditioner.
As shown in connection with fig. 3, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling an air conditioner, including:
S11, the air conditioner acquires a first interval distance detected by the first distance sensor.
S21, under the condition that the first interval distance is larger than or equal to a preset shielding distance, the air conditioner determines that shielding information indicates that the sterilization module does not conduct safety shielding.
S22, the air conditioner determines that the target operation mode is to control the ultraviolet irradiation structure of the sterilization module to be closed.
In this way, the air conditioner can detect the first interval distance between the air conditioner panel and the evaporator in the sterilization mode, and determine the safety shielding condition of the sterilization module according to the first interval distance; and then, under the condition that the sterilization module is determined not to carry out safety shielding, closing the ultraviolet irradiation structure; the ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet ray irradiation structure are prevented from being directly irradiated to the user, and adverse effects are caused on the physical health of the user; further, the damage to the vision health of the user caused by the fact that ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet irradiation structure are directly irradiated to the eyes of the user is avoided timely, and therefore the safety of the user in using the air conditioner with the sterilization function is improved.
Optionally, determining the target operation mode of the sterilization module according to the shielding information includes: under the condition that the shielding information indicates that the sterilization module performs safe shielding, acquiring air quality information of an associated area of the air conditioner; acquiring a second interval distance between a user and an air conditioner under the condition that the air quality information indicates that the associated area needs sterilization treatment; and determining a target operation mode of the sterilization module according to the second interval distance.

Specifically, controlling the ultraviolet irradiation structure of the sterilization module to operate under the condition that the second interval distance is larger than a preset safety distance; and controlling the ion release structure of the sterilization module to operate under the condition that the second interval distance is smaller than or equal to the preset safety distance.
In practical applications, the sterilizing effect of the ultraviolet irradiation structure is more biased to change the protein structure of bacteria or viruses in the air so as to inhibit the survival and reproduction of the bacteria or viruses in the air. In addition, the ultraviolet irradiation structure and the ion release structure are required to achieve the same sterilization efficiency, and the unit cost of the ultraviolet irradiation structure is lower. Therefore, in the case where the distance between the user and the air conditioner is sufficient to prevent the ultraviolet irradiation structure from directly irradiating the user, the sterilization mode preferentially operates the ultraviolet irradiation structure.

S34, the air conditioner determines a target operation mode of the sterilization module according to the second interval distance.
In this way, the air conditioner can detect the first interval distance between the air conditioner panel and the evaporator in the sterilization mode, and determine the safety shielding condition of the sterilization module according to the first interval distance; and under the condition that the sterilization module is determined to carry out safety shielding, switching different sterilization modes of the sterilization module according to the air quality information and the distance between the user and the air conditioner. The ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet ray irradiation structure can be prevented from directly irradiating the user, adverse effects are caused on the physical health of the user, and damage to the vision health of the user caused by the fact that the ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet ray irradiation structure are directly irradiated to the eyes of the user is timely avoided; and under the condition that the user is close to the air conditioner but the indoor air still has the sterilization requirement, different sterilization modes are switched to ensure the sterilization treatment effect of the air conditioner on the indoor air.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the target light intensity of the ultraviolet illumination structure is an upper limit value of a light intensity data range emitted by the ultraviolet illumination structure, which is acceptable to a specified user at a position where the user is located. The associated region of the air conditioner may user characterize the indoor region of the space in which the air conditioner is located.
In this way, the target light intensity emitted by the ultraviolet irradiation structure at the moment can be indirectly determined according to the distance between the user and the air conditioner; and when the target light intensity can not meet the intensity requirement of the current indoor environment for the sterilization mode operation, controlling the ion release structure of the sterilization module to be opened so as to release sterilization ions into the air. So that the operation of the sterilization module meets the intensity requirement of the indoor environment on the sterilization treatment, and the sterilization treatment effect of the air conditioner on the indoor air is ensured.
