Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below, the embodiments described with reference to the drawings being illustrative, and the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below.
In order to solve the problems that the global noise of the whole house cannot be weakened to be weakened when the air conditioner adopts a traditional active noise reduction mode, and the like, the embodiment of the invention provides an air conditioner and a control method for the active noise reduction of the air conditioner.
The air conditioner in the embodiment can be a common household air conditioner, an air duct air conditioner and the like, the operation mode and principle of the air duct air conditioner are the same as those of the common household air conditioner, and the air duct air conditioner is mainly taken as an example for explanation.
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
Fig. 1 is a schematic view of an air conditioner, the basic structure of which can be understood in conjunction with fig. 1, the air conditioner performing a cooling/heating cycle of the air conditioner by using a compressor, a condenser (outdoor heat exchanger), an expansion valve, and an evaporator (indoor heat exchanger) in the present application. Wherein the refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, and supplies a refrigerant to the air that has been conditioned and heat-exchanged.
The compressor compresses a refrigerant gas in a high-temperature and high-pressure state and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
The expansion valve expands the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve, and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor. The evaporator can achieve a refrigerating effect by heat exchange with a material to be cooled using latent heat of evaporation of a refrigerant. The air conditioner can adjust the temperature of the indoor space throughout the cycle.
The outdoor unit of the air conditioner refers to a portion of a refrigeration cycle including a compressor and an outdoor heat exchanger, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes an indoor heat exchanger, and an expansion valve may be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.
The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger serve as a condenser or an evaporator. When the indoor heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the air conditioner is used as a heater in a heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, the air conditioner is used as a cooler in a cooling mode.
An air conditioner according to some embodiments of the present application includes an air conditioner indoor unit installed in an indoor space. The indoor unit, i.e., the indoor unit, is connected to an outdoor unit, i.e., the outdoor unit, installed in an outdoor space through a pipe. The outdoor unit of the air conditioner may be provided with a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an outdoor fan, an expander, and the like for a refrigeration cycle, and the indoor unit of the air conditioner may be provided with an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor fan.
An air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 2 and 3. Fig. 2 is a block diagram of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention; fig. 3 is a schematic view of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The air conditioner 10 of the present embodiment takes an air duct air conditioner as an example, and the air conditioner 10 includes an air outlet duct 1, a noise reduction device 2, a human body detection device 3, and a controller 4, where the controller 4 is not shown in fig. 3.
In some embodiments, the air outlet duct 1 has an air outlet for air outlet. The air conditioner 10 of the present embodiment is exemplified by a ducted air conditioner.
It can be understood that, when the ducted air conditioner is installed, the ventilation pipeline of the indoor unit is generally hidden in the building, only the air outlet is exposed in the indoor environment, the pipeline of the air outlet duct 1 connected to the air outlet of the ducted air conditioner is long, and noise generated by the operation of the air conditioner 10, such as fan noise generated by the operation of a fan and wind noise generated by the flow of air, is mainly transmitted along the air outlet duct 1.
Based on the above, in some embodiments, for ducted air conditioners, as shown in fig. 3, the noise reducer 2 may be disposed at the air outlet. The noise reduction device 2 includes a frame 21, wherein the shape and size of the frame 21 can be adaptively set based on the shape and size of the air outlet, for example, the shape of the frame 21 can be set to be the same as the shape of the air outlet, and the size of the frame 21 can be set to be just capable of being sleeved in the air outlet, so that noise reduction processing of noise transmitted through the air outlet can be realized to the greatest extent.
Further, the noise reduction device 2 is configured to detect a first noise signal generated in the air outlet duct 1 and output a second noise signal having a phase opposite to that of the first noise signal. Specifically, the noise reduction device 2 may output a second noise signal by using an active sound source through detecting a waveform of a first noise signal entering an ear of a user and calculating, where the waveform of the second noise signal is the same as the waveform of the first noise signal in amplitude but opposite in phase, and the two waveforms are superimposed and output, and the output superimposed noise signal is attenuated, and the amplitude of the sound wave of the noise signal is reduced, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing noise.
In particular, the second noise signal may be generated from the first noise signal according to an embodiment of the invention described in fig. 5. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a noise signal according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 4, a curve a represents the waveform of the first noise signal, a curve B represents the waveform of the second noise signal, and a straight line C represents the waveform of the noise signal output by superimposing the first noise signal and the second noise signal. As can be seen from fig. 4, the waveform of the first noise signal is the same as the waveform of the second noise signal in amplitude but opposite in phase, and the total output noise signal is weakened after the two noise signals are superimposed, so that the noise reduction effect can be achieved after the two signals are superimposed and output.
Among them, in some embodiments, the human body detecting device 3 may be provided as a human body capturing sensor for detecting human body position information. For example, the human body detecting device 3 according to the embodiment of the present invention may be described with reference to fig. 5, and fig. 5 is a schematic view of the front surface of the noise reducing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 5, the noise reducer 2 is provided with a frame 21, and two sets of air deflectors are arranged in the frame 21, and the two sets of air deflectors are arranged along the length direction of the noise reducer 2. Wherein, a mounting plate M can be arranged between the two groups of air deflectors, and a mounting hole is arranged on the mounting plate M for mounting the human body detection device 3. For example, the human body detection device 3 may include at least two human body capturing sensors, and the two human body capturing sensors may be disposed on the mounting plate M between the two air deflectors, so as to not affect the working state of the air deflectors, and not be affected by the air swept by the air deflectors, and thus the human body detection device 3 can effectively capture any human body position information in real time.
Further, after the human body detection device 3 is started, the two human body capture sensors can be controlled to start scanning left and right, the scanning range can be set to be the space in the whole room, and the position of the human body in the room is determined according to the detected human body position information.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, the controller 4 is connected to the human body detection device 3 and the noise reduction device 2, and specifically, the controller 4 can receive the human body position information detected by the human body detection device 3 in real time and control the operating state of the noise reduction device 2 according to the human body position information.
The controller 4 may be a Processor having data Processing and analyzing functions, such as a Central Processing Unit (CPU) in an air conditioner, and the like, and the controller 4 may include a computing Unit, an executing Unit, a determining Unit, and the like for Processing and analyzing data.
Specifically, the controller 4 is configured to: acquiring a first noise signal and acquiring human body position information. The first noise signal is a noise signal generated when the air conditioner 10 operates. It is understood that when the air conditioner 10 is operated, the frequency and intensity of the generated noise may vary according to the operation mode of the air conditioner 10, the operation state of each component, such as the rotation speed of the fan, and the frequency and intensity of the first noise signal received by the air conditioner 10 may vary in real time.
In some embodiments, the controller 4 generates a driving control signal of the second noise signal according to the first noise signal, and obtains the required angle information of the noise reduction device 2 for outputting the second noise signal according to the human body position information.
Specifically, when the noise reducer 2 receives the first noise signal, the first noise signal waveform information may be acquired, the first noise signal may be analyzed to acquire parameters such as amplitude, intensity, and vibration frequency of the noise signal, and the noise signal may be extracted as an actual waveform curve, such as a curve a shown in fig. 5. And sends the waveform information to the controller 4, the controller 4 may calculate a waveform curve, such as curve B shown in fig. 5, having the same amplitude but opposite phase as the waveform of the first noise signal according to the received waveform information, and needs to control the noise reduction device 2 to output the second noise signal of such waveform, i.e., a driving control signal for generating the second noise signal according to the calculated waveform information.
And the controller 4 can also determine the human body position based on the received human body position information. For example, the controller 4 may also have a data storage function, such as obtaining a model of the indoor space and storing the model into the air conditioner 10 when the air conditioner 10 is first turned on. After receiving the human body position information, the processor 4 can determine the position of the human body in the indoor space according to the human body position information and calculate the corresponding position coordinate, so as to realize accurate positioning.
Further, when the noise reduction device 2 sends the second noise signal to the position of the human body, the second noise signal and the first noise signal transmitted to the periphery of the human body can be mutually offset, so that the targeted noise reduction of the acoustic environment around the human body is realized. Therefore, the controller 4 needs to control the noise reduction device 2 to send the second noise signal value according to the calculated position of the human body, so as to obtain the required angle information of the noise reduction device 2 outputting the second noise signal, which is used for adjusting the most suitable position of the noise reduction device 2 outputting the second noise signal value.
