Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like or similar reference numerals refer to like or similar elements or elements having like or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are illustrative only and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.
A control method of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 21.
According to the control method of the air conditioner, the air conditioner comprises a water receiving component and a water pump, and the water pump is used for pumping condensed water in the water receiving component. The water pump is a machine for conveying or pressurizing liquid, and transmits mechanical energy of a prime motor or other external energy to the liquid, so that the energy of the liquid is increased, and the water pump is mainly used for conveying the liquid and can be divided into a volumetric water pump, a vane pump and the like according to different working principles. Volumetric pumps use the change in volume of their working chambers to transfer energy. The vane pump is a type of centrifugal pump, axial flow pump, mixed flow pump, etc. that uses the interaction of rotary vanes with water to transfer energy.
The control method of the air conditioner comprises the following steps:
S100, determining an operation rotation speed of the water pump during operation of the air conditioner, and further, the air conditioner may be provided with a determining module for detecting the operation rotation speed of the water pump during operation of the air conditioner.
S200, controlling the water pump and the air conditioner according to the running rotating speed of the water pump, so that the overflow of condensed water in the water receiving assembly can be prevented, and further, the air conditioner can be provided with a control module which can control the water pump and the air conditioner according to the running rotating speed of the water pump, and the overflow of the condensed water from the water receiving assembly is prevented.
The maximum design output power of the water pump motor is fixed, and according to the formula of p=tΩ, it is known that when the output power of the water pump motor is fixed, the rotation speed Ω of the water pump motor is inversely proportional to the torque T, and the impeller of the water pump only applies work to the air when no water exists in the water receiving assembly. As shown in fig. 2, it is assumed that the maximum rotation speed of the water pump is 1000 rpm in the case of full water (water level H1), and the rotation speed of the water pump is 2000 rpm at the lowest water level H2. The air conditioner is turned on with the water pump speed set at 5000 rpm, and then the determination module detects the actual water pump speed, which may be 3000 rpm or 2000 rpm if there is no water in the water receiving assembly or little water. If there is some water in the water receiving assembly, the rotational speed fluctuates between 1000 and 2000. If the water pump is blocked or blocked by impurities, or the motor of the water pump is damaged, the rotating speed of the motor is possibly less than 100 revolutions and even not, and the water pump is considered to be faulty at the moment. Therefore, the shallower the water level in the water receiving assembly, the greater the rotation speed of the water pump, the deeper the water in the water receiving assembly, the greater the rotation speed of the water pump, and the rotation speed of the water pump is in direct proportion to the depth of the water level in the water receiving assembly.
Specifically, the water pump is started after the air conditioner is started, the determining module detects the running rotating speed of the water pump in the working process of the air conditioner, the determining module sends running rotating speed information of the water pump to the control module, and the control module can control the water pump and the air conditioner according to the running rotating speed value of the water pump after receiving the running rotating speed information of the water pump. Specifically, when the running rotation speed value of the water pump is greater than or equal to the first rotation speed value, no water or little water exists in the water receiving assembly, the pump body does not need to work to pump water towards the outside of the water receiving assembly, and at the moment, the control module controls the water pump to stop working and controls the air conditioner to keep in a running state. When the running rotating speed value of the water pump is smaller than the first rotating speed value, it is indicated that part of water exists in the water receiving assembly, the pump body is required to work to pump water towards the outside of the water receiving assembly, the control module controls the water pump to work continuously, and the air conditioner is controlled to keep in a running state. When the running rotation speed value of the water pump is smaller than the first rotation speed value and larger than the second rotation speed value, it is indicated that part of water is in the water receiving assembly, the control module controls the water pump to continue to work, when the running rotation speed value of the water pump is smaller than the second rotation speed value and larger than the third rotation speed value, it is indicated that the water in the water receiving assembly is more or in a full water state, the control module controls the running power of the water pump to be increased, and water in the water receiving assembly is discharged in time. When the running rotation speed value of the water pump is smaller than the third rotation speed value, the water pump is blocked and blocked by impurities, or the water pump motor is damaged, namely the water pump breaks down, the control module controls the water pump and the air conditioner to stop working, and condensed water is prevented from continuously gathering in the water receiving component.
As can be seen from the above, the control method of the air conditioner of the present application can determine the water level condition in the water receiving assembly according to the rotation speed of the water pump, so as to control whether the water pump and/or the air conditioner are operated according to the operation rotation speed of the water pump, and can timely discharge the water in the water receiving assembly out of the water receiving assembly, and can prevent the overflow of the condensed water in the water receiving assembly, thereby avoiding the indoor objects from being soaked by the condensed water, and further avoiding the property loss for the user.
Therefore, according to the control method of the air conditioner, whether the water pump and the air conditioner work or not is controlled according to the running rotating speed of the water pump, the water level switch is not required to be matched with the water pump to work, the water level switch is not required to be arranged on the air conditioner, the problem of water leakage of the air conditioner caused by failure of the water level switch can be radically avoided, and therefore indoor objects can be prevented from being soaked in water, and property loss can be avoided for users.
In some embodiments of the present invention, controlling the water pump and the air conditioner according to the operation rotation speed of the water pump may include: judging the running rotation speed of the water pump, specifically, when the running rotation speed of the water pump is greater than or equal to a first preset rotation speed (namely a first rotation speed value), indicating that no water exists in the water receiving assembly or the water level is at the lowest water level, the water in the water receiving assembly cannot overflow the water receiving assembly, and at the moment, the control module controls the water pump to stop working, and the control module controls the air conditioner to keep the running state. When the running rotating speed of the water pump is smaller than the first preset rotating speed, the control module controls the water pump to work continuously and controls the air conditioner to keep in a running state, the water pump is in a working state, the water pump can pump out condensed water in the water receiving component in real time, the condensed water in the water receiving component can be guaranteed not to overflow the water receiving component, and meanwhile normal use of the air conditioner is not affected.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the operation rotation speed of the water pump is less than the first preset rotation speed, controlling the water pump and the air conditioner according to the operation rotation speed of the water pump may further include: when the running rotating speed of the water pump is greater than or equal to a second preset rotating speed (namely, a second rotating speed value), namely, when the running rotating speed of the water pump is smaller than the first preset rotating speed and greater than or equal to the second preset rotating speed, the water receiving component is provided with partial water, the water pump is required to pump out the water receiving component, the control module controls the water pump to keep running in the current working state, at the moment, the control module controls the water pump to work continuously, the condensed water in the water receiving component is guaranteed to be pumped out in time, and overflow of the condensed water is further avoided.
Further, when the running rotating speed of the water pump is greater than or equal to the third preset rotating speed (namely, the third rotating speed value) and is smaller than the second preset rotating speed, the condition that the condensed water in the water receiving component is more or the water receiving component is full of water is indicated at the moment, the condensed water in the water receiving component needs to be quickly discharged, the control module controls and improves the running power of the water pump, more condensed water in the water receiving component can be pumped out in unit time, the pumping speed of the condensed water in the water receiving component can be improved, and therefore the condensed water can be further prevented from overflowing the water receiving component, and water leakage of an air conditioner can be further avoided.
Further, when the running rotating speed of the water pump is smaller than the third preset rotating speed, the fact that the water pump is blocked by impurities or blocked is indicated, or the water pump motor is damaged, namely, the water pump fails, the water pump cannot timely pump out condensed water in the water receiving component, at the moment, if the air conditioner continues to work, the condensed water can continue to gather in the water receiving component, and the condensed water has the risk of overflowing the water receiving component, so that the water pump and the air conditioner are controlled by the control module to stop working, and overflow of the condensed water in the water receiving component can be further avoided.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the running rotation speed of the water pump is greater than or equal to the third preset rotation speed and less than the second preset rotation speed, and the duration is greater than or equal to the fourth preset time (for example, the fourth preset time is set to 1 minute), it is determined that the water receiving assembly is in a full water level state, that is, the water receiving assembly is filled with water, and the CPU controls the air conditioner to send a full water prompt message, so that the user knows that the water receiving assembly is filled with water. And then the control module controls the operation power of the water pump to increase the pumping speed of the condensed water in the water receiving component, so that the condensed water can be further prevented from overflowing the water receiving component. However, the invention is not limited to this, and the control module can control the air conditioner to stop after the water receiving assembly is filled with water.
In some embodiments of the present invention, after controlling the water pump to stop operating, the method may further include: judging whether a water pump operation instruction is received, if so, controlling the water pump to start to operate, determining the operation rotating speed of the water pump after a first preset time, and if not, controlling the water pump to start to operate when the air conditioner operates in a refrigerating mode, and determining the operation rotating speed of the water pump after the first preset time.

Further, when the running rotation speed of the water pump is greater than or equal to a first preset rotation speed, the water receiving component is indicated to have no water or the water level is at the lowest water level, the water in the water receiving component cannot overflow the water receiving component, at the moment, the control module controls the water pump to stop working, then the control module judges whether a water pump running instruction is received, if the control module does not receive the water pump running instruction, a CPU (central processing unit-central processing unit) of the air conditioner detects whether the air conditioner starts a refrigerating running mode, if the air conditioner starts the refrigerating running mode, the CPU sends the control instruction to the control module, then the control module controls the water pump to start working, and after the first preset time, the determination module determines the running rotation speed of the water pump, then the determination module transmits the running rotation speed information of the water pump to the control module, and the control module can control the running states of the water pump and the air conditioner according to the running rotation speed of the water pump, so that the condensed water is prevented from overflowing from the water receiving component.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when an operation instruction of the water pump is not received and the air conditioner is not operated for cooling, it is determined whether the air conditioner is stopped, wherein if yes, that is, the air conditioner is stopped, the water pump is controlled to maintain a stopped state, if not, that is, the air conditioner is not stopped, the control module controls the water pump to start to operate when the operation time of the air conditioner is greater than or equal to a second preset time (for example, the second preset time is 1 minute), and the determination module determines the operation rotation speed of the water pump after the first preset time.
Specifically, when the running rotation speed of the water pump is greater than or equal to a first preset rotation speed, the control module controls the water pump to stop working at the moment, then the control module judges whether a water pump running instruction is received or not, if the control module does not receive the water pump running instruction, the air conditioner does not start a refrigerating mode, then the CPU detects whether the air conditioner stops working, if the air conditioner is in a stopping state, the control module controls the water pump to stop working, if the air conditioner is not in a stopping state, when the running time of the air conditioner is greater than or equal to a second preset time, the control module controls the water pump to start working, after the water pump is started for the first preset time, the determination module determines the running rotation speed of the water pump, then the determination module transmits the running rotation speed information of the water pump to the control module, and the working states of the water pump and the air conditioner can be controlled according to the running rotation speed of the water pump, and condensed water is prevented from overflowing from the water receiving assembly.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the operation rotation speed of the water pump is less than the third preset rotation speed and lasts for the third preset time, if the control module does not receive the water pump stop instruction, the determining module continues to determine whether the operation rotation speed of the water pump is less than the third preset rotation speed, wherein if yes, the determining module determines that the operation rotation speed of the water pump is less than the third preset rotation speed, the water pump is determined to have a fault, the water pump fault counter counts the number of faults, and the control module controls the water pump to stop operating, and when the number of faults is greater than or equal to the first preset number of times (the first preset number of times can be set to 3), the control module controls the air conditioner to stop operating, so that condensed water can be prevented from continuously generating when the air conditioner is refrigerating, and the condensed water can be effectively prevented from overflowing the water receiving component.

Meanwhile, whether the water pump is blocked or damaged can be judged through the rotation speed of the water pump, the alarm is given in advance, and the overflow fault of the water receiving assembly is avoided.

Thereby achieving the circulation process from water vapor to water and then from water vapor to water vapor. The water flowing down from the condenser and not evaporated in time flows down and returns to the water receiving component. When the CPU detects that the water level in the water receiving component reaches the full water level through the water level sensor (namely the first water level detection piece), the CPU controls the sound-light prompting unit (namely the sound-light alarm) to carry out sound and/or light full water prompt.

In order to achieve the above-described embodiments, the present invention provides a control device of an air conditioner 100, the air conditioner 100 including a water receiving assembly 10 and a water pump 61, the water pump 61 for pumping condensed water in the water receiving assembly 10, the control device including: the device comprises a determining module 30 and a control module 31, wherein the determining module 30 is used for determining the operation rotating speed of the water pump 61 during the operation process of the air conditioner 100, and the control module 31 is used for controlling the water pump 61 and the air conditioner 100 according to the operation rotating speed of the water pump 61 so as to prevent the condensed water in the water receiving component 10 from overflowing.
Specifically, the water pump 61 is started first after the air conditioner 100 is started, during the working process of the air conditioner 100, the determining module 30 detects the running rotation speed of the water pump 61, the determining module 30 sends the running rotation speed information of the water pump 61 to the control module 31, and after the control module 31 receives the running rotation speed information of the water pump 61, the control module 31 can control the water pump 61 and the air conditioner 100 according to the running rotation speed value of the water pump 61. Specifically, when the operation rotation speed value of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the first rotation speed value, no water or little water is in the water receiving assembly 10, and the water pump 61 is not required to work to pump water towards the outside of the water receiving assembly 10, at this time, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to stop working, and controls the air conditioner 100 to maintain the operation state. When the operation rotation speed value of the water pump 61 is smaller than the first rotation speed value, it indicates that a part of water exists in the water receiving assembly 10, the pump body 61 is required to work to pump water towards the outside of the water receiving assembly 10, and the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to continue to work and controls the air conditioner 100 to keep in an operation state. When the running rotation speed value of the water pump 61 is smaller than the first rotation speed value and larger than the second rotation speed value, it is indicated that a part of water is in the water receiving assembly 10, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to continue to work, when the running rotation speed value of the water pump 61 is smaller than the second rotation speed value and larger than the third rotation speed value, it is indicated that the water in the water receiving assembly 10 is in a more water or full water state, the control module 31 controls the running power of the water pump 61 to be increased, and the water in the water receiving assembly 10 is discharged in time. When the running rotation speed value of the water pump 61 is smaller than the third rotation speed value, it indicates that the impurity entering the water pump 61 is blocked or blocked, or the water pump motor is damaged, that is, the water pump 61 fails, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 and the air conditioner 100 to stop working, so as to avoid condensed water from continuously gathering in the water receiving assembly 10.
As can be seen from the above description, the air conditioner 100 according to the present application can determine the water level condition in the water receiving assembly 10 according to the rotation speed of the water pump 61, so as to control whether the water pump 61 and/or the air conditioner 100 are operated according to the operation rotation speed of the water pump 61, so as to timely drain the water in the water receiving assembly 10 out of the water receiving assembly 10, prevent the condensed water in the water receiving assembly 10 from overflowing, thereby avoiding the indoor objects from being soaked by the condensed water, and further avoiding the property loss for the user.
Further, when the running rotation speed of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the first preset rotation speed (i.e. the first rotation speed value), it indicates that there is no water in the water receiving assembly 10 or the water level is at the lowest water level, the water in the water receiving assembly 10 will not overflow the water receiving assembly 10, at this time, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to stop working, and the control module 31 controls the air conditioner 100 to keep the running state. When the running rotation speed of the water pump 61 is less than the first preset rotation speed, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to continue to work and controls the air conditioner 100 to keep in a running state, at this time, the water pump 61 is in a working state, and the water pump 61 can pump out condensed water in the water receiving assembly 10 in real time, so that the condensed water in the water receiving assembly 10 can be ensured not to overflow the water receiving assembly 10, and meanwhile, normal use of the air conditioner 100 is not affected.
When the running rotation speed of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the second preset rotation speed (i.e., the second rotation speed value), that is, when the running rotation speed of the water pump 61 is less than the first preset rotation speed and greater than or equal to the second preset rotation speed, it is indicated that part of water is in the water receiving assembly 10, the water pump 61 is required to pump out the water receiving assembly 10, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to keep running in the current working state, at this time, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to continue working, and therefore condensed water in the water receiving assembly 10 is guaranteed to be pumped out in time, and overflow of the condensed water is further avoided.
When the running rotation speed of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the third preset rotation speed (i.e. the third rotation speed value) and less than the second preset rotation speed, this time indicates that the condensed water in the water receiving component 10 is more or the water receiving component 10 is full, the condensed water in the water receiving component 10 needs to be quickly discharged, the control module 31 controls to increase the running power of the water pump 61, and more condensed water in the water receiving component 10 can be pumped out in unit time, so that the pumping rate of the condensed water in the water receiving component 10 can be increased, and further, the overflow of the condensed water to the water receiving component 10 can be avoided, and further, the water leakage of the air conditioner 100 can be avoided.
When the running rotation speed of the water pump 61 is less than the third preset rotation speed, it indicates that the water pump 61 is blocked by impurities or blocked, or the water pump motor is damaged, that is, the water pump 61 fails, the water pump 61 cannot pump out the condensed water in the water receiving component 10 in time, at this time, if the air conditioner 100 continues to work, the condensed water may continue to gather in the water receiving component 10, and the condensed water has a risk of overflowing the water receiving component 10, so that the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 and the air conditioner 100 to stop working, and overflow of the condensed water in the water receiving component 10 can be further avoided.
When the running rotation speed of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the third preset rotation speed and less than the second preset rotation speed, and the duration is greater than or equal to the fourth preset time (for example, the fourth preset time is set to 1 minute), it is determined that the water receiving assembly 10 is in a full water level state, that is, the water receiving assembly 10 is full of water, and the CPU36 controls the air conditioner 100 to send a full water prompt message, so that the user knows that the water receiving assembly 10 is full of water. The control module 31 then controls the operation power of the water pump 61 to increase the pumping rate of the condensed water in the water receiving assembly 10, thereby further avoiding the condensed water from overflowing the water receiving assembly 10. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the control module 31 may control the air conditioner 100 to stop after the water receiving assembly 10 is filled with water.
After controlling the water pump 61 to stop operating, it may further include: judging whether an operation instruction of the water pump 61 is received, if so, controlling the water pump 61 to start to operate, determining the operation rotating speed of the water pump 61 after a first preset time, and if not, controlling the water pump 61 to start to operate when the air conditioner 100 operates in a refrigerating mode, and determining the operation rotating speed of the water pump 61 after the first preset time. Specifically, when the operation rotation speed of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the first preset rotation speed, which means that there is no water in the water receiving assembly 10 or the water level is at the lowest water level, the water in the water receiving assembly 10 will not overflow the water receiving assembly 10, at this time, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to stop working, then the control module 31 determines whether the operation instruction of the water pump 61 is received, if the control module 31 receives the operation instruction of the water pump 61, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to start working, and after the first preset time (for example, the first preset time is set to 1 minute), the determination module 30 determines the operation rotation speed of the water pump 61, then the determination module 30 transmits the operation rotation speed information of the water pump 61 to the control module 31, and the control module 31 can control the operation states of the water pump 61 and the air conditioner 100 according to the operation rotation speed of the water pump 61, so as to prevent the condensed water from overflowing from the water receiving assembly 10.
Further, when the operation rotation speed of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the first preset rotation speed, it indicates that there is no water in the water receiving assembly 10 or the water level is at the lowest water level, the water in the water receiving assembly 10 will not overflow the water receiving assembly 10, at this time, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to stop working, then the control module 31 determines whether the operation instruction of the water pump 61 is received, if the operation instruction of the water pump 61 is not received by the control module 31, the CPU36 (central processing unit-central processing unit) of the air conditioner 100 detects whether the air conditioner 100 is in the cooling operation mode, if the air conditioner 100 is in the cooling operation mode, the CPU36 issues the control instruction to the control module 31, then the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to be in the opening operation, and after the first preset time, the determination module 30 determines the operation rotation speed of the water pump 61, then the determination module 30 transmits the operation rotation speed information of the water pump 61 to the control module 31, and the operation states of the water pump 61 and the air conditioner 100 can be controlled according to the operation rotation speed of the operation speed of the water pump 61, so as to prevent the condensed water from overflowing from the water receiving assembly 10.

Specifically, when the operation speed of the water pump 61 is greater than or equal to the first preset speed, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to stop working at this time, then the control module 31 determines whether an operation instruction of the water pump 61 is received, if the control module 31 does not receive the operation instruction of the water pump 61, and the air conditioner 100 does not start the cooling mode, then the CPU36 detects whether the air conditioner 100 is stopped, if the air conditioner 100 is in a stopped state, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to stop working, if the air conditioner 100 is not in a stopped state, and when the operation time of the air conditioner 100 is greater than or equal to the second preset time, the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to start working, after the water pump 61 is started for the first preset time, the determination module 30 determines the operation speed of the water pump 61, then the determination module 30 transmits operation speed information of the water pump 61 to the control module 31, and the control module 31 can control the operation states of the water pump 61 and the air conditioner 100 according to the operation speed of the water pump 61 to prevent condensed water from overflowing from the water receiving assembly 10.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the operation speed of the water pump 61 is less than the third preset speed and lasts for the third preset time, if the control module 31 does not receive the water pump 61 stopping command, the determining module 30 continues to determine whether the operation speed of the water pump 61 is less than the third preset speed, wherein if yes, the determining module 30 determines that the operation speed of the water pump 61 is less than the third preset speed, determines that the water pump 61 is faulty, and the water pump fault counter counts the number of faults, and the control module 31 controls the water pump 61 to stop operating, and when the number of faults is greater than or equal to the first preset number (the first preset number may be set to 3), the control module 31 controls the air conditioner 100 to stop operating, so that condensed water can be prevented from being continuously generated when the air conditioner 100 is refrigerating, and the condensed water can be effectively prevented from overflowing the water receiving component 10.

The air conditioner 100 according to the present application estimates the water level in the water receiving unit 10 by detecting the rotation speed of the water pump 61, and controls the operation of the water pump 61 or stops or adjusts the rotation speed by the estimated water level. Meanwhile, whether the water pump 61 is blocked or damaged can be judged through the rotation speed of the water pump 61, and an alarm is given in advance, so that overflow faults of the water receiving assembly 10 are avoided.
