2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various proposals have been made regarding annual cooling of air conditioners. In particular, by varying the operating rate of the outdoor fan motor of the air conditioner and even turning it ON/OFF, the heat exchange capacity is reduced and the pressure on the high pressure side is increased, thereby increasing the pressure on the low pressure side, that is, the indoor side. This prevents the indoor evaporator from freezing. Also,
As shown in FIG. 1, the control for varying the operating rate of the outdoor fan motor involves inputting the voltage divided by the outside air temperature thermistor 1c to the microcomputer 2, and controlling the current of the relay coil 10 according to the signal from the microcomputer 2. O
Simply turn the induction motor ON/OFF by turning it N/OFF.
There are methods of F control and methods of deceleration using a transistor motor.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the relationship between the outdoor load setting, the detected value of the outdoor load, and the ON/OFF timing of the outdoor fan is that the ON/OFF point of the fan is uniquely determined by the set temperature. At this time, the outdoor and indoor pipe temperatures are as shown in FIG. 2(A).

First, the circuit of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. In the figure, reference numeral 1a denotes an outdoor pipe temperature thermistor, which inputs temperature changes to the microcomputer 2 as a divided voltage with respect to a resistor Ra. The comparator 3 uses the comparison device 3 to determine which region of the preset temperature range the piping temperature data is in, and accordingly provides an output signal to the control ports (SH to SL) that vary the rotation speed of the outdoor unit fan motor. .

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, when the outside temperature drops and the piping temperature drops below 30°C, the outdoor unit fan motor is lowered to the rotation speed one rank lower, and the piping temperature is always kept above a certain temperature. It is something that should be maintained. The piping temperature is almost equal to the condensation temperature of the refrigerant, and this control can prevent the temperature of the indoor evaporator from decreasing, and prevents frost formation on the evaporator and further decreases in the amount of heat exchange due to frost formation. Compressor failure due to refrigerant liquid compression can be prevented.

In the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 4, when the outdoor air temperature falls below 20° C., the outdoor fan motor 6 is reduced to a lower rotational speed to maintain the piping temperature always above a certain temperature. The pipe temperature is approximately equal to the condensation temperature of the refrigerant, and this control can prevent the temperature of the indoor evaporator from decreasing. In addition, the outdoor temperature decreases,
When the outdoor pipe temperature becomes 35° C. or lower, the outdoor fan motor enters an intermittent ON/OFF operation range as shown in FIG. In this area, the outdoor fan motor is ON in this embodiment.
By performing periodic intermittent operation with a time of 2 seconds and an OFF time of 15 seconds, it is possible to prevent the outdoor and indoor pipe temperatures from dropping. Even during this period, the outdoor and indoor pipe temperatures decreased to 28
If the temperature drops below ℃, the outdoor fan will turn off completely as before.
The state becomes FF. This effect causes the outdoor and indoor pipe temperatures to rise, and when they reach 32° C. or higher, the system enters intermittent operation again. When the pipe temperature further rises to 38°C, the system returns to the normal cooling state in which the outdoor fan is always on. Here, as in the past, the outdoor fan motor strength and O
When controlling the indoor piping temperature by N/OFF, the means for detecting the piping temperature has some responsiveness, and the ON/OFF time of the outdoor fan also has a range, and as a result, the fluctuation range of the blowing temperature is large. Become. Therefore, by forcibly operating the ON/OFF intermittently at a certain cycle within a certain temperature range, the temperature outside the room does not drop and its fluctuation range can be reduced.As a result, the blowout temperature It is possible to reduce the range of fluctuation.
