具体实施方式
图1是根据本发明一个实施例的空调器10的示意性框图。
按照整体结构划分,空调器10一般性地可包括:空气调节系统200、处理器410和存储器420。空气调节系统200可以包括制冷系统,还可以进一步地包括调湿系统、新风系统、除味系统、净化系统和除菌系统中的一个或多个。调湿系统可以包括多个除湿单元,分别设置于空调器10的室内机110所在室内环境中,用于消耗室内环境中的水蒸气。调湿系统还可以包括多个加湿单元,分别设置于室内环境中,用于向室内环境提供水蒸气,以提高室内环境的湿度。

制冷系统可以包括压缩机、室外机换热器、室内机换热器。空调器10的运行模式可以包括制冷模式、制热模式、唤醒模式、除湿模式、加湿模式和新风模式中的一个或多个。由于上述运行模式为本领域技术人员所习知,故,在此不做详述。
图2是根据本发明一个实施例的空调器10的室内机110的示意图。
本实施例的室内机110可以为立式,例如方形柜机或者圆形柜机,也可以为壁挂式,但不限于此。图2仅以壁挂式空调器室内机110进行示例,本领域技术人员在了解本实施例的基础上应当完全有能力针对其他机型进行拓展,在此不再一一示出。
处理器410和存储器可以形成控制装置,控制装置可以设置在室内机中。其中存储器420内存储有控制程序421,控制程序421被处理器410执行时用于实现以下任一实施例的空调器10的控制方法。处理器410可以是一个中央处理单元(CPU),或者为数字处理单元(DSP)等等。存储器420用于存储处理器410执行的程序。存储器420可以是能够用于携带或存储具有指令或数据结构形式的期望的程序代码并能够由计算机存取的任何介质,但不限于此。存储器420也可以是各种存储器420的组合。由于控制程序421被处理器410执行时实现下述方法实施例的各个过程,且能达到相同的技术效果,为避免重复,这里不再赘述。
空调器10还可以进一步地包括信息采集装置,信息采集装置配置成采集室内环境中 目标交互用户的信息(例如,图像和/或动态视频),以根据目标交互用户的信息确定眨眼频率和/或打哈欠频率和/或衣物类型信息。本实施例的信息采集装置可以包括:图像采集器。图像采集器可以为至少一个摄像头。摄像头可以设置于室内机110的机壳111500上,也可以根据实际需要设置在室内环境中的指定位置。摄像头可以为高精度摄像头。信息采集装置利用图像采集器拍摄目标交互用户的图像和/或动态视频。

在一些可选的实施例中,空调器10也可以不设置信息采集装置。空调器10可以与外部的信息采集装置预先建立数据连接,例如,空调器10可以与外部的信息采集装置通过蓝牙或者Wifi等无线通讯方式进行配对,以实现预先绑定,而无需为空调器10单独配置图像采集器或AI智能识别系统,这有利于降低空调器10制造成本。
在另一些可选的实施例中,空调器10还可以进一步地包括空气喷射装置,例如,空气炮。空气喷射装置能将吸入的空气进行压缩,然后向室内环境输出冲击气流。
图3是根据本发明一个实施例的空调器10的控制方法的示意图。
本实施例的控制方法可以适用于多个不同季节、多种不同运行模式,尤其适用于夏季的制冷工况和冬季的制热工况。下面将以制冷工况和制热工况为例,对空调器10的控制方法进行详细阐述。本领域技术人员在了解以下实施例的基础上,应当完全有能力针对其他应用场景进行拓展,在此不再一一举例。
空调器10的控制方法一般性地可以包括:
步骤S302,获取空调器10的唤醒模式的启动信号。唤醒模式可以指用于唤醒处于睡眠状态或乏困状态的目标交互用户的运行模式。
在步骤S302之后,控制方法还包括:控制空调器10的室内机110向室内环境输出气流。
空调器10接收到唤醒模式的启动信号后,可以进入唤醒模式,在唤醒模式下,空调器10可以先向室内环境输出气流,以唤醒目标交互用户,还可以根据目标交互用户的状态参数调整运行状态,以营造舒适的环境,使得目标交互用户快速纾乏解困,提高学习或工作效率。
空调器10的唤醒模式启动之前,可以按照初始运行参数运行,初始运行参数可以包括初始运行温度、初始运行湿度、初始新风量。由于初始运行参数可以根据用户的指示进行设定,空调器10按照初始运行参数运行时,既可以处于停机状态,也可以处于运行状态。唤醒模式的启动信号中可以包含空调器10的运行参数,空调器10接收到唤醒模式的启动信号之后可以按照该信号所指示的运行参数进入运行状态,以向室内环境输出气流, 从而唤醒目标交互用户。唤醒模式的启动信号所指示的运行参数可以进行预先设置,例如,可以设置为26℃制冷或制热,且左右扫风,唤醒模式启动之后,空调器10可以驱动室内机110按照26℃进行制冷或制热,且左右扫风,以向室内环境输出气流。
在本实施例中,唤醒模式的启动信号可以在空调器10检测到目标交互用户工作状态或学习状态不佳的情况下发出,以提醒目标交互用户集中注意力,提高工作或学习效率。例如,空调器10可以预设有状态监控模式,进入该模式后,空调器10可以每隔设定时间向与空调器10数据连接的信息采集装置发送查询请求,以获取目标交互用户的状态参数,并对目标交互用户的状态参数进行分析,判断目标交互用户是否处于乏困状态,若是,则控制空调器10发出唤醒模式的启动信号。又例如,目标交互用户可以在容易犯困的冬季和/或夏季通过语音指令或遥控器按键指示空调器10进入状态监控模式。
在一些可选的实施例中,唤醒模式的启动信号可以按照预设的唤醒时间定时发出。该唤醒时间可以由用户根据实际需要进行预先设置。例如,若用户希望空调器10可以在14:00pm按照制热模式自动进入唤醒模式,则唤醒时间可以为14:00pm。将唤醒时间设置好后,处理器410可以按照唤醒时间定时发出指示空调器10进入唤醒模式的启动信号。
在另一些可选的实施例中,唤醒模式的启动信号还可以在空调器10接收到目标交互用户的语音指令后发出。
步骤S304,获取空调器10的室内机110所在室内环境中目标交互用户的状态参数。上述步骤S304可以在控制空调器10的室内机110向室内环境输出气流的步骤之后执行。
目标交互用户的状态参数可以包括目标交互用户的眨眼频率和/或打哈欠频率。眨眼频率可以指第一设定时长内目标交互用户的眨眼次数,第一设定时长可以为1~5min范围内的任意值。打哈欠频率可以指第二设定时长内目标交互用户的打哈欠次数,第二设定时长可以为1~5min范围内的任意值。
上述步骤S304可以包括:向与空调器10数据连接的信息采集装置发送查询请求,以获取目标交互用户的动态视频信息,对动态视频信息进行分析,得到目标交互用户的眨眼频率和/或打哈欠频率。
步骤S306,根据目标交互用户的状态参数确定空调器10的目标运行参数。
目标交互用户的状态参数包括目标交互用户的眨眼频率和/或打哈欠频率。上述步骤S306可以包括:根据目标交互用户的眨眼频率和/或打哈欠频率确定空调器10的目标运行参数。
其中,根据目标交互用户的眨眼频率确定空调器10的目标运行参数的步骤可以包括:判断目标交互用户的眨眼频率是否小于第一设定阈值,若是,则进一步获取空调器10的工况类型,根据工况类型确定空调器10的目标运行参数。例如,第一设定时长可以为1min,第一设定阈值可以为10~12次范围内的任意值。
获取空调器10的工况类型的步骤可以包括:获取空调器10所在地区的室外环境预测信息和目标交互用户的衣物类型信息,根据室外环境预测信息和目标交互用户的衣物类型 信息确定空调器10的工况类型,工况类型至少包括制热工况和制冷工况,还可以包括普通送风工况。其中,普通送风工况是指不需要启动制冷系统,仅需要向室内环境吹送送风气流的工况。
室外环境预测信息可以指天气预报数据中的温度预测信息,即,未来设定时间段内的各个时刻的温度,例如,未来24h内各个整点时刻的温度。设定时间段可以为24h,也可以为48h,或者12h等。根据室外环境预测信息可以确定空调器10所在地区的季节。
获取空调器10所在地区的室外环境预测信息的步骤可以包括:向与空调器10数据连接的云平台发送查询请求,以获取与空调器10的地理位置信息相对应的室外环境预测信息,云平台用于保存与空调器10的地理位置信息相对应的空调器10所在地区的室外环境预测信息的实时数据,且云平台中预先配置有空调器10的地理位置信息;且
空调器10的地理位置信息可以指空调器10的经纬度坐标数据,例如,GPS定位数据,或者BDS定位数据。
本实施例中,根据预置的地理位置信息,云平台可以与天气预报应用平台建立有数据连接,并可以定时收取天气预报应用平台中与位置信息相对应的空调器10所在位置的天气预报数据,例如,可以每隔10min收取一次天气预报数据。天气预报数据中含有空调器10所在地理位置的室外温度预测信息。
衣物类型信息用于标示衣物类型。预设的衣物类型可以包括薄款衣物类型和厚款衣物类型。例如,若检测到目标交互用户的衣物为T恤、衬衫等,则衣物类型信息所标示衣物类型为薄款衣物类型,若检测到目标交互用户的衣物为毛衣、棉衣等,则衣物类型信息所标示衣物类型为厚款衣物类型。
获取目标交互用户的衣物类型信息的步骤可以包括:向与空调器10数据连接的信息采集装置发送查询请求,以获取目标交互用户的图像信息,并将目标交互用户的图像信息与预设的图像特征库中的样本进行匹配,得到目标交互用户的衣物类型信息。
图像特征库中预先保存有多种衣物的图像模型作为样本,每一种衣物的图像模型标示有对应的衣物类型信息。图像特征库的建立方法是本领域技术人员所习知的,在此不做赘述。衣物的图像模型的数量可以由用户根据常用的多种衣物类型进行设置。
在根据室外环境预测信息和目标交互用户的衣物类型信息确定空调器10的工况类型的步骤中,可以根据室外环境预测信息确定空调器10所在地区的季节,根据空调器10所在地区的季节和目标交互用户的衣物类型信息综合确定空调器10的工况类型。
例如,若空调器10所在地区的季节为冬季,目标交互用户的衣物类型信息所标示的衣物类型为薄款衣物类型,则工况类型为制热工况;若空调器10所在地区的季节为冬季,目标交互用户的衣物类型信息所标示的衣物类型为厚款衣物类型,则工况类型为普通送风工况;若空调器10所在地区的季节为夏季,无论目标交互用户的衣物类型信息所标示的衣物类型为薄款衣物类型还是厚款衣物类型,工况类型均为制冷工况。若空调器10所在地区的季节为秋季或春季,无论目标交互用户的衣物类型信息所标示的衣物类型为薄款衣 物类型还是厚款衣物类型,工况类型均为普通送风工况。
根据工况类型确定空调器10的目标运行参数的步骤包括:获取预设的参数对应关系,参数对应关系规定有与每一工况类型相对应的空调器10的目标运行参数,目标运行参数至少包括目标运行温度和目标运行湿度,根据参数对应关系确定空调器10的目标运行参数。目标运行温度是指空调器10运行时室内环境能被调节到的温度。例如,目标运行温度可以设置为26℃。空调器10按照该目标运行温度运行时可使室内环境的温度达到或维持在26℃。
与制冷工况相对应的空调器10的目标运行温度可以为26℃,目标运行湿度可以为40%。由于制冷工况的应用场景一般为夏季,室内环境温度较高,空调器10按照温度26℃,湿度40%的目标运行参数运行时,既能为室内环境营造舒适的空气氛围,帮助目标交互用户快速纾乏解困,又能节约耗电量。
与制热工况相对应的目标运行温度可以为24℃,目标运行湿度可以为70%。由于制冷工况的应用场景一般为冬季,室内环境温度较低,空调器10按照温度24℃,湿度70%的目标运行参数运行时,既能为室内环境营造舒适的空气氛围,帮助目标交互用户快速纾乏解困,又能节约耗电量。
按照不同的工况类型配置空调器10的目标运行参数,能够使得空调器10根据实际使用需求运行唤醒模式,既能满足唤醒功能的使用需求,又能实现节能,提高了智能化程度。
为确定与每一工况类型相对应的目标运行参数,发明人在每一工况类型下选取了多个测试运行温度(24℃,26℃,28℃,30℃),在每一测试运行温度下,分别选取了多个测试运行湿度(40%,55%,70%)进行测试,检测并记录了每一测试条件下目标交互用户的疲劳程度。
图4是根据本发明一个实施例的目标交互用户的疲劳程度与测试运行温度和测试运行湿度之间的对应关系图。图中纵坐标为疲劳程度值P,每个虚线框代表一种测试运行温度,每个虚线框内的方柱的高度表示不同的测试运行湿度(从左至右依次为40%,55%,70%)所对应的疲劳程度值。虚线框K101为制热工况(24℃),虚线框K102为制冷工况(26℃),虚线框K103为制热工况(28℃),虚线框K104为制冷工况(30℃)。
在每一工况类型下,通过控制空调器10按照不同测试运行温度和不同测试运行湿度运行,并对每一运测试条件下的目标交互用户的疲劳程度进行分析,可以得到每一测试条件下的疲劳程度值。疲劳程度值越低,目标交互用户的乏困程度越低,工作状态越佳。可将每一工况类型下与疲劳程度的最低值相对应的测试运行温度和测试运行湿度作为与每一工况类型相对应的空调器10的目标运行参数。
上述步骤S306中,根据目标交互用户的打哈欠频率确定空调器10的目标运行参数的步骤可以包括:判断目标交互用户的打哈欠频率是否超出第二设定阈值,若是,则确定空调器10需要启动新风模式,并按照目标交互用户的打哈欠频率确定空调器10的目标运行参数,目标运行参数至少包括目标新风量。例如,第二设定时长可以为1min,第二设定 阈值可以为2~5次范围内的任意值。
当目标交互用户的打哈欠频率较高时,利用空调器10为室内环境输入新鲜空气,可以提高室内环境空气中的氧含量,起到提神醒脑、缓解疲劳作用,还能适当地消散因打哈欠而产生的异味,从而有利于提高室内环境的空气质量,进而提高目标交互用户的精神状态。
新风模式可以预先配置有多个风量档次,例如,可以包括风量依次降低的高风量档次和低风量档次。在按照目标交互用户的打哈欠频率确定空调器10的目标新风量的步骤中,在打哈欠频率超出第三设定阈值的情况下,目标新风量可以为高风量档次,在打哈欠频率未超出第三设定阈值的情况下,目标新风量可以为低风量档次。第三设定阈值大于第二设定阈值,例如,可以为3~10次范围内的任意值。
步骤S308,控制空调器10按照目标运行参数运行,目标运行参数包括目标运行温度、目标运行湿度和/或目标新风量。根据目标交互用户的眨眼频率可以确定空调器10的目标运行温度和目标运行湿度,根据目标交互用户的打哈欠频率可以确定空调器10的目标新风量。控制空调器10按照目标运行参数运行可以指控制空调器10按照目标运行参数调整运行状态,即,若根据目标交互用户的状态参数确定出的目标运行参数中的至少一个与初始运行参数不同,例如,则可以仅调整与初始运行参数不同的目标运行参数,其他运行参数不作调整。
若目标交互用户的眨眼频率小于第一设定阈值,而目标交互用户的打哈欠频率未超出第二设定阈值,则可以根据目标交互用户的眨眼频率可以确定空调器10的目标运行温度和目标运行湿度,此时可以控制空调器10按照确定出的目标运行温度和目标运行湿度运行,即,在初始运行参数的基础上,仅调整目标运行温度和目标运行湿度,将唤醒模式启动之前的初始新风量作为目标运行温度和目标新风量。
若目标交互用户的眨眼频率小于第一设定阈值,而目标交互用户的打哈欠频率超出第二设定阈值,则可以根据目标交互用户的眨眼频率可以确定空调器10的目标运行温度和目标运行湿度,并根据目标交互用户的打哈欠频率可以确定空调器10的目标新风量,此时可以控制空调器10按照确定出的目标运行温度、目标运行湿度和目标新风量运行,即,在初始运行参数的基础上,调整目标运行温度、目标运行湿度和目标新风量。
若目标交互用户的眨眼频率不小于第一设定阈值,而目标交互用户的打哈欠频率超出第二设定阈值,则可以根据目标交互用户的打哈欠频率可以确定空调器10的目标新风量,此时可以控制空调器10按照确定出的目标新风量运行,即,在初始运行参数的基础上,仅调整目标新风量,将唤醒模式启动之前的初始运行温度和初始运行湿度作为目标运行温度和目标运行湿度。
在控制空调器10按照目标运行参数运行的步骤之后,控制方法还包括:获取空调器10退出唤醒模式的退出信号,控制空调器10按照唤醒模式启动之前的初始运行参数运行,初始运行参数至少包括初始运行温度、初始运行湿度和初始新风量。空调器10退出唤醒 模式的退出信号可以在唤醒模式运行第三设定时长后发出。第三设定时长可以为10~30min范围内的任意值。
例如,若空调器10在唤醒模式启动之前处于停机状态,则空调器10退出唤醒模式之后,恢复至停机状态;若空调器10在唤醒模式启动之前的初始运行温度为26℃(制冷),初始运行湿度为60%,初始新风量为低风量档次,则在退出唤醒模式之后,控制空调器10按照26℃供冷、湿度为60%进行除湿,并按照低风量档次供应新风。
在一些可选的实施例中,在控制空调器10开始按照目标运行参数运行时,还可以检测目标交互用户的状态参数,若目标交互用户的眨眼频率大于或等于第一设定阈值,且持续时长超过第四设定时长,则可以认为目标交互用户已摆脱乏困状态,此时可以发出唤醒模式的退出信号。
