In the present embodiment, the level of the first operating power source V1 is greater than the level of the second operating power source V2. - Specifically, the
vibration sensor 150 is configured to sense a vibration state that occurs when theair conditioning device 100 operates. The vibration information IF generated by thevibration sensor 150 can indicate the magnitude of position offset of theair conditioning device 100 caused by vibration. In addition, theoperation processing controller 140 can determine whether an absolute value of a peak value of the position offset of theair conditioning device 100 is greater than a pre-determined threshold value according to the vibration information IF, and theoperation processing controller 140 can inform thepower supplier 110 that the supply of the first operating power source V1 needs to be cut off at this time through a generated control command CMD when the absolute value of the position offset of theair conditioning device 100 is greater than the above-mentioned threshold value. On the contrary, if the absolute value of the peak value of the position offset of theair conditioning device 100 is not greater than the above-mentioned threshold value, thepower supplier 110 may continue to supply the first operating power source V1. - Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the
operation processing controller 140 may perform interpretation of the vibration information IF by executing software and generates the corresponding control command CMD through a software execution result. That is, in the present embodiment, when theair conditioning device 100 vibrates excessively, theoperation processing controller 140 may start a protection action in several mini-seconds (ms) through the software and cut off the supply of the first operating power source V1 of thepower supplier 110 via the control command CMD. Alternatively, in other embodiments, theoperation processing controller 140 may not cut off the supply of the first operating power source V1 of thepower supplier 110 and directly send a command to stop the operation of thefan 131 and thecompressor 121. - The
air conditioning device 100 of the embodiment of the disclosure further includes avoltage sensor 170, atemperature sensor 180, and acurrent sensor 160. Thevoltage sensor 170, thetemperature sensor 180, and thecurrent sensor 160 are coupled to theoperation processing controller 140. Thevoltage sensor 170, thetemperature sensor 180, and thecurrent sensor 160 provide detected voltage information, temperature information, and current information to theoperation processing controller 140 respectively as a basis for how theoperation processing controller 140 starts a protection mechanism. Herein, thevoltage sensor 170 and thecurrent sensor 160 can detect voltage and current states of one or more electronic components in an air conditioner and generate voltage information and current information by detecting whether the voltage and current states are abnormal or not. Thetemperature sensor 180 may be disposed at one or more locations inside the air conditioner and generates temperature information by detecting a temperature state of each part when the air conditioner works. - Referring to

Similarly, when a peak current provided by the drive signal DRV2 is excessively high, thefan 231 may feed back a peak current protection signal PC2 to thefan driver 230 and make thefan driver 230 cut off the supply of the drive signal DRV2. - Here, the protection actions performed by the
compressor driver 220 and thefan driver 230 are performed by means of hardware circuits. Accordingly, the protection actions performed by thecompressor driver 220 and thefan driver 230 may be accomplished in several micro-seconds (us). - In another aspect, the fuse F1 and the fuse F2 may be fused respectively when an overcurrent phenomenon occurs in the input power source VIN and the first operating power source V1. When the overcurrent phenomenon occurs in the input power source VIN, the fuse F1 may be fused to stop the receiving of the input power source VIN. When the overcurrent phenomenon occurs in the first operating voltage V1, the fuse F2 may be fused to prevent the
fan driver 230 from receiving the first operating power source V1, and the purpose of circuit protection is achieved. Here, the fusing action of the fuse F1 and the fuse F2 may be completed in several seconds, which is another form of hardware protection action. - In the present embodiment, the

The abnormality information ABI2 includes abnormality information of temperature information of thefan driver 230 and current information of thefan driver 230. - The
operation processing controller 240 may generate a control command CMD based on the abnormality information ABI1 and ABI2 by executing software. When an abnormality occurs in at least one of thecompressor driver 220, thefan driver 230, thecompressor 221, and thefan 231, the switch SW1 is turned off by the control command CMD. By turning off the switch SW1, the supply of the first operating power source V1 may be stopped, and the appropriateness state of hardware components is maintained. - In another aspect, the
operation processing controller 240 may additionally receive temperature information IFO such as a condenser temperature IF21, an ambient temperature IF22, a compressor input end temperature IF23, and a compressor output end temperature IF24. Theoperation processing controller 240 also receives vibration information IF1 of the air conditioning device 200 through thevibration sensor 250. Theoperation processing controller 240 may perform operation on the abnormality information ABI1 and ABI2, the temperature information IFO, and the vibration information IF1 by executing software, thereby generating the control command CMD. - In the present embodiment, the
voltage sensor 260 may be coupled to an end point where thepower supplier 210 generates the first operating power source V1 and senses the level of the first operating power source V1 to transmit a sensed result to theoperation processing controller 240. Theoperation processing controller 240 may also generate a control command according to whether an overvoltage phenomenon occurs in the level of the first operating power source V1. - The above-mentioned
operation processing controller 240 may be a processor with operational capability. - Referring to
