So that the manner in which the features and elements of the disclosed embodiments can be understood in detail, a more particular description of the disclosed embodiments, briefly summarized above, may be had by reference to the embodiments, some of which are illustrated in the appended drawings. In the following description of the technology, for purposes of explanation, numerous details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may be practiced without these details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices may be shown in simplified form in order to simplify the drawing.

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.
The term "plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specified.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the character "/" indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an or relationship. For example, A/B represents: a or B.
The term "and/or" is an associative relationship that describes objects, meaning that three relationships may exist. For example, a and/or B, represents: a or B, or A and B.
The term "correspond" may refer to an association or binding relationship, and a corresponds to B refers to an association or binding relationship between a and B.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the multi-split air conditioning system comprises a compressor arranged on the outdoor side and a plurality of indoor units, and further comprises an oil level detection device, wherein the oil level detection device is used for detecting oil quantity information of engine oil in the compressor.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1, the oil level detection device may include a float assembly 220 disposed within the cavity of the compressor 200, the float assembly 220 being configured to detect level data of oil pressurized within the compressor 200. Wherein, a reference liquid level line is further disposed in the cavity of the compressor 200.
Optionally, the reference level line within the cavity of the compressor 200 is located below the suction port 210 of the compressor 200. When the position of the float assembly 220 is lowered to or below the reference liquid level line, it indicates that the compressor 200 is in an oil-starvation state at this time; at this time, in order to more accurately judge whether the multi-split air conditioning system is in an oil shortage state, the operation state information of the indoor units needs to be further acquired. Conversely, when the position of the float assembly 220 is above the reference liquid level line, it means that there is no oil shortage in the compressor 200, and no oil return operation is required.
Alternatively, the reference level line may be a preset position located below the suction port 210 of the compressor.
Therefore, through the structural improvement on the oil level detection in the compressor 200, the preposed judgment on whether the compressor 200 body is lack of oil is added, and the judgment precision on whether the multi-connected air-conditioning system is lack of oil is improved, so that the current situation of frequent oil return of the multi-connected air-conditioning system is improved.
Referring to fig. 2, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an oil return control method, which is applied to a multi-split air conditioning system, and the oil return control method includes:
and S01, the multi-split air conditioning system acquires oil amount information measured by the oil level detection device.
And S02, acquiring the running state information of the indoor units by the multi-split air conditioning system when the oil amount information indicates that the compressor is in an oil shortage state.
And S03, determining a target oil return scheme by the multi-split air conditioning system according to the running condition information of the indoor units.
And S04, controlling the multi-split air conditioner system to execute a target oil return scheme.
By adopting the oil return control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, an oil level detection device can be arranged in the compressor, whether the multi-split air-conditioning system is lack of oil in the compressor body under the current operation condition is determined through the oil level detection device, and a target oil return scheme executed by the multi-split air-conditioning system is determined according to the operation condition information of a plurality of indoor units under the oil lack condition of the compressor body. Therefore, the regular oil return control logic of the multi-split air conditioning system is changed, whether the compressor body is lack of oil is determined firstly, and whether oil return operation is performed is determined according to the running condition information of the indoor units; therefore, the oil return operation frequency of the multi-split air-conditioning system is reduced, the influence of noise in the oil return operation process on a user is reduced, and the use experience of the user on the multi-split air-conditioning system is improved.
In some embodiments, the oil return control method for the multi-split air conditioning system comprises the following steps: acquiring oil quantity information measured by an oil level detection device; acquiring the running state information of a plurality of indoor units under the condition that the oil amount information indicates that the compressor is in an oil shortage state; determining a target oil return scheme according to the running condition information of the indoor units; and controlling the multi-split air conditioning system to execute a target oil return scheme.
Optionally, the executing body for executing the above steps may be a multi-split air conditioning system. Specifically, the multi-split air conditioning system acquires oil quantity information measured by an oil level detection device; under the condition that the oil quantity information indicates that the compressor is in an oil shortage state, the multi-split air-conditioning system acquires the running condition information of the indoor units; the multi-split air conditioning system determines a target oil return scheme according to the running condition information of the indoor units; and controlling the multi-split air conditioning system to execute a target oil return scheme.
Optionally, after the multi-split air conditioning system obtains the information of the oil amount measured by the oil level detection device, the oil return control method may further include: and determining whether the body of the compressor in the multi-split air conditioning system is in an oil shortage state or not according to the detection data of the oil level detection device.
Thus, whether the body of the compressor is lack of oil or not is determined through the detection data of the oil level detection device, and whether the body of the compressor is lack of oil or not can be preliminarily determined for the multi-split air conditioning system. If the fact that the body of the compressor is not in oil shortage is determined, whether the whole multi-split air conditioning system is in oil shortage or not does not need to be further judged, and corresponding oil return operation is not needed. However, if it is determined that the body of the compressor is in an oil shortage state, in order to perform a further accurate determination, it is necessary to determine whether the oil return operation needs to be performed in the multi-split air conditioning system in combination with the operation conditions of the plurality of indoor units.
Optionally, the oil level detection device is a float assembly disposed within the compressor; determining oil quantity information by: acquiring detection information of the floater assembly, wherein the detection information comprises liquid level data of engine oil in the compressor; determining that the oil quantity information indicates that the compressor is in an oil shortage state under the condition that the liquid level data is less than or equal to the preset reference liquid level; and under the condition that the liquid level data is greater than the preset reference liquid level, determining that the oil quantity information indicates that the compressor is in an oil-shortage-free state.
Wherein, the height of the preset reference liquid level is lower than that of a suction port of the compressor. The selection of the preset reference level is not particularly limited as long as it is slightly lower than the suction port of the compressor. In particular, the preset reference level may be in line with a level of a reference level line within the cavity of the compressor. That is, the liquid level data is less than or equal to the preset reference liquid level, indicating that the position of the float assembly is lowered to or below the reference liquid level line, at which time it may be determined that the body of the compressor is in an oil starved state. The liquid level data is larger than a preset reference liquid level, the position of the floater assembly is higher than the reference liquid level line, and at the moment, the body of the compressor can be determined to be in an oil-shortage-free state.
The body of the compressor is not in oil shortage, so that the multi-online air conditioning system is not in an oil shortage state, and the oil return operation can be omitted. And as it is determined that the body of the compressor is lack of oil, it cannot be directly determined whether the multi-split air-conditioning system has the condition of oil leakage of the compressor due to refrigerant leakage, the operation conditions of the indoor units need to be further judged, and then an oil return strategy corresponding to a target oil return scheme which needs to be executed by the multi-split air-conditioning system is determined. Therefore, the oil return frequency of the multi-split air-conditioning system can be reduced to a certain extent, and the accuracy of judging whether the multi-split air-conditioning system is lack of oil is improved.
With reference to fig. 3, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another oil return control method, including:
and S11, the multi-split air conditioning system acquires the liquid level data of the compressor internal pressure engine oil detected by the floater assembly.
And S12, under the condition that the liquid level data is larger than the preset reference liquid level, the multi-split air-conditioning system determines that the oil quantity information indicates that the compressor is in an oil shortage state.
And S13, the multi-split air conditioning system does not perform oil return operation, and acquires the liquid level data of the compressor internal pressure engine oil detected by the float assembly again after a preset time interval.
In this way, the floater assembly is arranged in the compressor, whether the body of the compressor is lack of oil under the current operation condition of the multi-split air-conditioning system is determined through the floater assembly, and if the body of the compressor is determined to be in a state of not lack of oil, the multi-split air-conditioning system can be controlled not to perform oil return operation within a preset time period. By the preposed judging step of judging whether the body of the compressor is lack of oil or not, under the condition that the body of the compressor is determined not to be lack of oil, the oil return operation is not executed; the oil return operation frequency of the multi-split air conditioning system is effectively reduced, the oil return operation frequency is reduced, the occurrence frequency of noise generated in the oil return operation process can be reduced to a certain extent, the frequency that a user in a room without an indoor unit is disturbed by the noise is reduced, and therefore the use experience of the user on the multi-split air conditioning system is improved.
Optionally, the operation condition information of the plurality of indoor units includes the number of indoor units in an operation state among the plurality of indoor units; determining a target oil return scheme according to the running condition information of the indoor units, wherein the target oil return scheme comprises the following steps: acquiring current load information of indoor units in running states; determining the current load proportion of the current operating load of the multi-split air-conditioning system occupying the full load according to the current load information of the indoor units in the operating states; and determining an oil return operation strategy of the target oil return scheme according to the current load proportion of the multi-split air-conditioning system.
In practical application, a starting instruction of the multi-split air conditioning system is responded, liquid level data detected by the floater component is acquired for the first time after the compressor runs for the first preset time, and whether the body of the compressor is lack of oil is judged for the first time according to the liquid level data. If the body of the compressor is determined not to be lack of oil, the liquid level data detected by the floater assembly can be acquired again after a second preset time interval, so that whether the body of the compressor is lack of oil or not can be judged again.
Under the condition that the body of the compressor is determined to be in the oil shortage state according to the liquid level data detected by the floater component, the starting number of the indoor units and the current load ratio of the current operation load of the indoor units in the starting state to the full load of the multi-split air-conditioning system are obtained, and the multi-split air-conditioning system is controlled to execute an oil return operation strategy corresponding to the current load ratio.
The oil return operation strategy may include an oil return opening degree of an electronic expansion valve corresponding to each of the plurality of indoor units, an operation frequency of the compressor when the oil return operation is performed, and an execution frequency of the oil return operation. The frequency of performing the oil returning operation may be how often the oil returning operation is performed every long time in a case where the body of the compressor is always in the oil shortage state.
With reference to fig. 4, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another oil return control method, including:
and S11, the multi-split air conditioning system acquires the liquid level data of the compressor internal pressure engine oil detected by the floater assembly.
And S21, determining that the oil quantity information indicates that the compressor is in an oil shortage state under the condition that the liquid level data is less than or equal to the preset reference liquid level.
And S22, the multi-split air conditioning system acquires the current load information of the indoor units in the running state.
And S23, determining the current load proportion of the current operating load of the multi-split air-conditioning system occupying the full load according to the current load information of the indoor units in the operating states.
And S24, determining an oil return operation strategy of the target oil return scheme by the multi-split air conditioning system according to the current load proportion of the multi-split air conditioning system.
Therefore, the floater component is arranged in the compressor, whether the body of the compressor of the multi-split air-conditioning system is in an oil shortage state under the current operation condition is determined through the floater component, and a target oil return scheme for the multi-split air-conditioning system to execute is determined according to the operation condition information of the indoor units when the body of the compressor is determined to be in the oil shortage state. The control logic of the periodic oil return of the multi-split air-conditioning system is improved, the judgment precision of whether the multi-split air-conditioning system is lack of oil is improved through the pre-judgment step of whether the body of the compressor is lack of oil, and an oil return operation strategy matched with the current operation state is performed only when the multi-split air-conditioning system is determined to be possibly in the oil lack state; the oil return operation frequency of the multi-split air conditioning system can be effectively reduced, the oil return operation frequency can be reduced to a certain extent, the occurrence frequency of noise generated in the oil return operation process is reduced, and the frequency that a user in a room without an indoor unit is disturbed by the noise is reduced, so that the use experience of the user on the multi-split air conditioning system is improved.
Optionally, determining an oil return operation strategy of the target oil return scheme according to the current load proportion of the multi-split air conditioning system includes: acquiring the current operating frequency of the compressor; and determining an oil return operation strategy of the target oil return scheme according to the current load proportion of the multi-split air-conditioning system and the current operation frequency of the compressor.
