Description

用于空调器的控制方法及空调器 技术领域
本发明属于空调器技术领域,具体提供一种用于空调器的控制方法及空调器。
背景技术
空调器是能够为室内制冷/制热的设备,随着时间的推移,空调器的室内机和室外机上的积灰会逐渐增多,积灰累积到一定程度后会滋生大量的细菌,尤其在室内空气流经室内机时,会携带大量的灰尘和细菌,因此需要对空调器及时进行清洁。
目前,空调器的清洁一般需要通过人工进行清洁或者通过按键启动自清洁装置进行清洁,但是由于用户不能很准确地判断空调器何时需要进行清洁,导致空调器不能被及时地清洁,从而影响用户的使用体验。现在的一些空调器也有采用自清洁的方式,例如公开号为CN107525209A的专利中公开了一种空调器自清洁控制方法,具体而言,该控制方法包括检测空调器当前的运行模式,若空调器当前的运行模式为非制冷模式,将空调器调整为制冷模式;检测空调器的室内机风机的电机的转速及电机在转速下的第一电流值;将电机在转速下的第一电流值与在转速下的第一预设电流值进行比较,若第一电流值小于或等于第一预设电流值,则开启空调器的自清洁模式,执行室内机换热器的自清洁处理。也就是说,上述的专利中采用的是通过室内机的风机电流来判断是否执行室内机的自清洁,然而,在空调器的制冷运行过程中,空调器的室内机会产生凝露,而室内机产生凝露后会对室内机的风机电流产生影响,即室内机凝露的产生会使室内机的风机电流降低,而且随着空调器的制冷运行,室内机产生的凝露会逐渐增多,室内机的风机电流也会逐渐降低,因此,凝露状态的变化会导致风机电流的不稳定,从而使检测的风机电流不准确,进而使空调器无法准确地进行结灰判断和/或出现误判而频繁执行自清洁的情况。
因此,本领域需要一种用于空调器的控制方法及相应的空调器来解决上述问题。
发明内容
为了解决现有技术中的上述问题,即为了解决现有空调器采用人工清洁无法使用户准确地判断何时需要对空调器进行清洁,从而使空调器不能被及时地清洁,以及空调器采用自清洁方式容易使空调器出现误判的问题,本发明提供了一种用于空调器的控制方法,该空调器包括室内机,该控制方法包括:在空调器制冷运行时,每隔预设时间检测一次室内机的风机电流,获取多个风机电流值;根据多个风机电流值,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,“根据多个风机电流值,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁”的步骤具体包括:将多个风机电流值进行比较,将不再变化的风机电流值作为稳态电流值;根据稳态电流值,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,“根据稳态电流值,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁”的步骤具体包括:计算稳态电流值相对于标准电流值的变化值;将变化值与预设值比较;根据比较结果,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,“根据比较结果,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁”的步骤包括:如果变化值大于预设值,则提示空调器需要被清洁。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,“根据比较结果,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁”的步骤还包括:如果变化值不大于预设值,则不提示空调器需要被清洁。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,“提示空调器需要被清洁”的步骤包括:将室内机上的指示灯变为预警颜色。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,预警颜色为红色。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,变化值等于标准电流值与稳态电流值的差值。
在上述控制方法的优选技术方案中,标准电流值为空调器处于完全清洁且空调器在制冷运行时室内机上的凝露达到饱和状态时室内机的风机电流值。
在另一方面,本发明还提供了一种空调器,该空调器包括控制器,该控制器配置成能够执行上述的控制方法。
本领域技术人员能够理解的是,在本发明的优选技术方案中,在空调制冷运行时,每隔预设时间检测一次室内机的风机电流,获取多个风机电流值,将多个风机电流值进行比较,将不再变化的风机电流值作为稳态电流值,计算稳态电流值相对于标准电流值的变化值,将变化值与预设值进行比较,根据比较结果选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁,如果变化值大于预设值,则提示空调器需要被清洁,如果变化值不大于预设值,则不提示空调器需要被清洁。通过这样的控制方法,能够使用户准确地判断空调器是否需要被清洁,与现有技术中采用人工清洁空调器的方式相比,本发明中当空调器需要清洁时能够马上提示用户对空调器进行清洁,从而使空调器能够被及时地清洁,提升用户的使用体验。此外,与现有技术中空调器采用自清洁的方式相比,通过每隔预设时间检测一次室内机的风机电流值,将获取的多个风机电流值进行比较,将不再变化的风机电流值作为稳态电流值,即当室内机凝露达到饱和状态时凝露不再增加,风机电流值也不再变小,风机电流达到稳定状态,将稳定后的风机电流值与标准电流值进行比较,从而能够准确地检测空调器是否结灰,并且能够避免空调器由于室内机的凝露状态的变化而出现误判的情况,从而可以更为精准地判断何时才需要对空调器进行清洁,即在最合适的时间来对空调器进行自清洁,提升用户体验。
进一步地,标准电流值为空调器处在完全清洁且空调器在制冷运行时室内机的凝露达到饱和状态时室内机的风机电流值,在空调器处于完全清洁的状态时,此时选取标准电流值更能够反馈空调器在使用过程中的结灰程度,即空调器在使用的过程中始终是和完全清洁状态下的风机电流参数进行比对,在消除空调器运行模式以及室内机的凝露状态对风机电流影响的基础上,可以更加准确地反馈空调器的结灰程度,在结灰严重时可以及时提示用户需要对空调器进行清洁,在未结灰并且结灰程度在可以接受的范围内时可以暂时不提示用户对空调器进行清洁。
更进一步地,提示空调器需要被清洁的方式采取将室内机上的指示灯变为红色可以使用户更为直观地观察到空调器需要被清洁,从而使用户及时对空调器进行人工清洁或开启空调器自清洁模式,避免空调器由于清洁不及时而导致脏堵严重进而影响用户的正常体验。
此外,本发明在上述技术方案的基础上进一步提供的空调器由于采用了上述的控制方法,因而具备上述控制方法所具备的技术效果,并且相比于现 有的空调器,本发明的空调器在需要进行清洁时能够提示用户对空调器进行清洁,从而使空调器能够被及时地清洁,提升用户体验。

图3是根据本发明的一个实施例的空调器的示意性结构框图。
具体实施方式
下面参照附图来描述本发明的优选实施例。本领域技术人员应当理解的是,这些实施例仅仅用于解释本发明的技术原理,并非旨在限制本发明的保护范围。
基于背景技术指出的现有空调器10采用人工清洁无法使用户准确地判断何时需要对空调器10进行清洁,从而使空调器10不能被及时地清洁,以及空调器10采用自清洁方式容易使空调器10出现误判的问题。本发明提供了一种用于空调器10的控制方法及空调器10,旨在使空调器10在需要进行清洁时能够提示用户对空调器10进行清洁,从而使空调器10能够被及时地清洁,进而提升用户体验。
具体地,参见图1和图3,本发明的空调器10包括室内机20,如图1所示,本发明的控制方法包括:步骤S102,空调器10制冷运行;步骤S104,在空调器10制冷运行时,每隔预设时间检测一次室内机20的风机40电流,获取多个风机电流值;步骤S106,根据多个风机电流值,选择性地提示空调器10需要被清洁。其中,为保证每隔预设时间检测的室内机20的风机40电流能够反映出室内机20的凝露状态的变化,相邻两次风机40电流检测时间间隔不能太短,本领域技术人员可以通过实验的方式设定预设时间,也可以通过经验的方式设定预设时间,例如,预设时间可以为15分钟,即每隔15分钟检测一次室内机20的风机40的电流。需要说明的是,室内机20的风机40的电流大小能够直接反映出空调器10的结灰程度,因为在一定的转速下风机40的负荷是确定的,当相同转速下风机40的负荷增大,相应地,风机40的电流减小,此时说明风机40的风阻增加,也就是说室内机20上结灰,并且结灰越严重,风机40的电流就越小,因此,通过风机40电流大小能够充分地判断空调器10的室内机20的结灰程度。
进一步地,“根据多个风机电流值,选择性地提示空调器需要被清洁”的步骤具体包括:步骤S206,将多个风机电流值进行比较,将不再变化的风机电流值作为稳态电流值。
优选地,“将多个风机电流值进行比较,将不再变化的风机电流值作为稳态电流值”的步骤包括:将获取的多个风机电流值按照获取时间进行排序,先获取的风机电流值排在前面,后获取的风机电流值排在后面,将第二个风机电流值与第一个风机电流值进行比较,如果第二个风机电流值不小于第一个风机电流值,则将第二个风机电流值作为稳态电流值,如果第二个风机电流值小于第一个风机电流值,则将第三个风机电流值与第二个风机电流值进行比较,如果第三个风机电流值不小于第二个风机电流值,则将第三个风机电流值作为稳态电流值,如果第三个风机电流值小于第二个风机电流值,则将第四个风机电流值与第三个风机电流值进行比较,直到风机电流值不再变小时,将不再变小的风机电流值作为稳态电流值。当然,作为替代性地,“将多个风机电流值进行比较,将不再变化的风机电流值作为稳态电流值”的步骤还可以包括:将获取的多个风机电流值按照获取时间进行排序,先获取的风机电流值排在前面,后获取的风机电流值排在后面,将第二个风机电流值与第一个风机电流值进行比较,将第三个风机电流值与第二个风机电流值进行比较,如果第二个风机电流值不小于第一个风机电流值且第三个风机电流值不小于第二风机电流值,则将第三个风机电流值作为稳态电流值,如果第二个电流值小于第一个电流值,则将第四个电流值与第三个电流值进行比较,如果第三个电流值不小于第二个电流值且第四个电流值不小于第三个电流值,则将第四个电流值作为稳态电流值,如果第三个风机电流值小于第二个风机电流值,则将第五个风机电流值与第四个风机电流值进行比较,直到连续两次排在后面的风机电流值均不小于排在其前面的风机电流值时,将不再变小的风机电流值作为稳态电流值;再或者直到连续三次排在后面的风机电流值均不小于排在其前面的风机电流值时,将不再变小的风机电流值作为稳态电流值,通过增加排在后面的风机电流值不小于排在其前面的风机电流值的连续次数,能够避免因为风机40电流波动而使空调器10出现误判的情况,本领域技术人员可以在实际应用中灵活地设置排在后面的风机电流值不小于排在其前面的风机电流值的连续次数,只要能够通过多个风机电流值的比较,使不再变化的风机电流值作为稳态电流值即可。下面结合具体实施例 详细地阐述本发明的技术方案。
优选地,如图2所示,“根据稳态电流值,选择性地提示空调器10需要被清洁”的步骤具体还包括:步骤S208,计算稳态电流值相对于标准电流值的变化值;将变化值与预设值比较,具体地,可包括步骤S210,判断变化值是否大于预设值;根据比较结果,选择性地提示空调器10需要被清洁。进一步地,“根据比较结果,选择性地提示空调器10需要被清洁”的步骤包括:如果变化值大于预设值,则提示空调器10需要被清洁(步骤S212);如果变化值不大于预设值,则不提示空调器10需要被清洁(步骤S214)。具体地,上述的变化值等于标准电流值Ib与稳态电流值Iw的差值△I。即,如果标准电流值Ib与稳态电流值Iw的差值△I大于预设值,则提示空调器10需要被清洁,如果标准电流值Ib与稳态电流值Iw的差值△I不大于预设值,则不提示空调器10需要被清洁。在一种可能的实施例中,预设值设置为0.1A,即如果△I>0.1A,则说明此时室内机20的脏堵比较严重,需要提示用户对空调器10进行清洁,如果△I≤0.1A,则说明此时室内机20无脏堵或者室内机20的脏堵仍然在可以接受的范围内,此时可以暂时不提示用户对空调器10进行清洁。当然,预设值不限于上述示例的0.1A,本领域技术人员可以在实际应用中灵活地设置预设值的具体数值,只要通过预设值确定的分界点能够判断空调器10是否需要被清洁即可。
此外,还需要说明的是,上述的标准电流值可以在空调器10出厂前进行测定,即空调器10处于完全清洁的状态下且空调器10制冷运行,测定室内机20的凝露达到饱和状态时室内机20的标准电流值。此外,标准电流值还可以在空调器10出厂后进行测定,即空调器10在使用过程中,空调器10制冷运行时,将预设时间内获取的室内机20的凝露达到饱和状态时室内机20的多个风机电流值中出现频次最高的电流值作为标准电流值,通过对多个风机电流值出现频次的计算和排序,来选取出现频次最高的风机电流值作为标准电流值,其中,风机电流值的采样数据可以为1000个、2000个或者其他数量,本领域技术人员可以在实际应用中灵活地设置风机电流值的采样数量。而预设时间可以是一天、一周、一个月或者其他设定的时间数值,只要从预设时间内获取的多个风机电流值能够选定出标准电流值即可,这种对预设时间具体数值的调整和改变并不偏离本发明的原理和范围,均应限定在本发明的保护范围之内。
进一步优选地,“提示空调器10需要被清洁”的步骤包括:将室内机20上的指示灯60变为预警颜色,其中,可以通过使室内机20上的指示灯60变为红色或者黄色来提示用户空调器10需要被清洁,本领域技术人员可以在实际应用中灵活地设定指示灯60的具体颜色,只要通过该颜色的选定能够提示用户需要对空调器10进行清洁即可,当然,在实际应用中,还可以通过室内机20上的声音装置(例如蜂鸣器、语音播报器等)发出声音来提示用户空调器10需要被清洁,再或者通过指示灯60和声音装置的组合共同提示用户空调器10需要被清洁,本领域技术人员可以在实际应用中灵活地设置用户对空调器10进行清洁的具体提示方式,这种对提示方式的调整和改变并不偏离本发明的原理和范围,均应限定在本发明的保护范围之内。
此外,本发明的空调器10还包括控制器30,该控制器30配置成能够执行上述的控制方法。即该控制器30能够帮助用户准确地判断空调器10是否需要被清洁,当空调器10需要被清洁时能够提示用户,从而使空调器10能够被及时地清洁。
需要说明的是,当用户被提示空调器10需要清洁时可以对空调器10的室内机20单独进行清洁,也可以对空调器10的室内机20和室外机同时进行清洁,因为室内机20出现脏堵时也能够在一定程度上间接反馈出室外机也到了出现脏堵的时限。此外,在本发明中,对空调器10具体的清洁方式可以是人工进行清洁,也可以是启动空调器10的自清洁装置进行清洁。
至此,已经结合附图所示的优选实施例描述了本发明的技术方案,但是,本领域技术人员容易理解的是,本发明的保护范围显然不局限于这些具体实施例。在不偏离本发明的原理的前提下,本领域技术人员可以对相关技术特征作出等同的更改或替换,这些更改或替换之后的技术方案都将落入本发明的保护范围之内。
