根据下文结合附图对本发明具体实施例的详细描述,本领域技术人员将会更加明了本发明的上述以及其他目的、优点和特征。
附图说明
后文将参照附图以示例性而非限制性的方式详细描述本发明的一些具体实施例。附图中相同的附图标记标示了相同或类似的部件或部分。本领域技术人员应该理解,这些附图未必是按比例绘制的。附图中:

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。
空调器10一般性地可包括处理器410和存储器420,还可以进一步地包括制冷系统、净化系统。制冷系统和净化系统可以统称为空气调节系统200。空调器10可以为分体式,也可以为一体式。
本实施例将以分体式空调器10为例,对空调器10的结构和控制方法进行介绍,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类型的空调器10进行拓展,此处不再一一示例。
分体式的空调器10可包括:室内机110和室外机。室内机110和室外机通过有效的配合运转,完成空调器10的制冷和制热循环,从而实现室内温度的冷热调节。图2是根据本发明一个实施例的空调器10的室内机110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仅以壁挂式进行示例,不应视为对室内机110类型的限定。
制冷系统可以包括压缩机、室外机换热器、室内机110换热器。空调器10的运行模式可以包括制热模式和制冷模式,还可以进一步地包括净化模式。在制热模式下,制冷剂流经室内机110换热器时进行放热冷凝,制冷剂流经室外机换热器时进行吸热蒸发。制冷系统可以利用制冷剂在室内机110换热器内放热从而为室内机110所在的工作环境供热。在制冷模式下,制冷剂流经室内机110换热器时进行吸热蒸发,制冷剂流经室外机换热器时进行放热冷凝,制冷系统可以利用制冷剂在室内机110换热器内吸热从而为室内机110所在的工作环境供冷。
在净化模式下,空调器10可以利用净化系统向室内机110所在工作环 境通入新风,也可以利用净化系统向工作环境释放杀菌物质,例如紫外光,臭氧,氧负离子等,还可以利用净化系统对流向工作环境的送风气流进行杀菌处理,例如,空调器10的送风风道内可以设置有杀菌模块,通过开启杀菌模块,可以在空调器10制冷或制热时对送风气流进行杀菌处理。杀菌模块可以为紫外灯,臭氧释放装置,或者氧负离子释放装置等。
处理器410和存储器420可以形成控制装置,控制装置可以设置在室内机110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。
本实施例中,空调器10还可以进一步地包括检测装置,例如,检测装置可以包括温度传感器,用于获取空调器10的室内机110所在工作环境的温度。检测装置可以设置于室内机110的机壳111上。在一些可选的实施例中,检测装置还可以进一步地包括湿度传感器,用于获取空调器10的室内机110所在工作环境的湿度。
在另一些可选的实施例中,空调器10可以与外部的检测装置建立数据连接,以获取工作环境的温度和/或湿度,这能够降低空调器10的制造成本。
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既可以用于调节工作环境的实时环境温度,也可以用于调节工作环境的实时环境湿度等。下面将以实时环境温度的调节过程为例,对空调器10的控制方法作详细阐述,本领域技术人员在了解以下实施例的基础上应当易于获知其他环境参数的调节过程。上述控制方法一般性地可包括:
步骤S302,获取空调器10的室内机110所在工作环境的实时环境参数。实时环境参数可以包括实时环境温度。
步骤S304,获取与工作环境中的喂养动物相对应的目标环境参数。目标环境参数可以包括目标环境温度。与喂养动物相对应的目标环境温度是指符合喂养动物生理、生活习性特点的目标环境温度。当喂养动物所在工作环 境的实时环境温度为目标环境温度时,喂养动物可以处于舒适状态。
步骤S306,判断实时环境参数是否超出目标环境参数。目标环境温度可以为数值或者数值范围。当目标环境温度为数值时,若实时环境温度与目标环境温度不一致,则表示实时环境温度超出目标环境温度。当目标环境温度为数值范围时,若实时环境温度不在目标环境温度的数值范围内,则表示实时环境温度超出目标环境温度。
步骤S308,若实时环境参数超出目标环境参数,则根据目标环境参数确定空调器10的运行参数。空调器10的运行参数可以包括运行温度。空调器10的运行温度是指空调器10运行时工作环境将被调节到的温度。例如,可以直接将目标环境温度作为空调器10的运行温度。若实时环境参数未超出目标环境参数,则可以再次获取工作环境的实时环境参数,以达到持续监测实时环境参数的目的。
步骤S310,按照运行参数启动空调器10开始调节工作环境。即,控制空调器10启动,并按照确定出的运行参数运行,使得工作环境的实时环境参数达到或接近目标环境参数,以向喂养动物提供舒适的生活环境。
使用上述方法,本发明的空调器10,额外具备了“照料动物”功能,能够自动地为喂养动物提供舒适的生活环境,提高了空调器10的智能化程度,从而无需增设专门的宠物空调即可为喂养动物提供空气调节服务,有利于降低用户的成本负担。当用户外出离家时,空调器10可以起到自动地照料动物的作用,防止喂养动物因工作环境温度过高而引发食欲不振甚至中暑,同时也能防止喂养动物因工作环境温度过低导致感冒或对工作环境的物品造成破坏。
上述步骤S302之前,控制方法还可以包括:获取空调器10所在位置的天气参数预测信息,天气参数预测信息中记录有设定时间段内空调器10所在位置的天气参数,判断设定时间段内空调器10所在位置的天气参数是否处于预设的天气参数范围内,若是,则执行获取空调器10的室内机110所在工作环境的实时环境参数的步骤。其中,天气参数预测信息可以指天气预报信息。设定时间段内可以指执行获取天气参数预测信息时(例如每天晚上9点)未来1~24小时内的任意时间段。天气参数可以指温度参数。例如,设定时间段内的温度参数可以指未来24小时内每一整点时刻的温度。在一些实施例中,空调器10可以预设有宠物模式,若设定时间段内空调器10所在 位置的天气参数处于预设的天气参数范围内,则可以启动宠物模式。空调器10可以按照预设的运行时长(例如1~10h)运行宠物模式,在宠物模式下,空调器10可以执行获取工作环境的实时环境参数的步骤。在一些进一步的实施例中,空调器10在未启动宠物模式的情况下,也可以执行获取天气参数预测信息的步骤,在天气参数超出预设的极端参数值的情况下(例如天气温度高于35℃或者低于-10℃),空调器10可以向数据连接的终端设备推送提示消息(例如“主人,目前极端天气,请关注家中爱宠的舒适情况,建议启动宠物模式”)。
预设的天气参数范围可以为由用户根据空调器10所在位置的气候特点以及喂养动物的生理、生活习性特点进行设置。例如,对于家犬、家猫等喂养动物而言,预设的天气参数范围可以为20~30℃,18~26℃,或者20~26℃等。
例如,设定时间段内空调器10所在位置的天气参数处于预设的天气参数范围,可以指设定时间段内的每一整点时刻的温度均处于预设的天气参数范围内。
获取空调器10所在位置的天气参数预测信息的步骤可以包括:向与空调器10数据连接的云端数据库发送查询请求,以获取与空调器10所在位置相对应的天气参数预测信息,云端数据库可以预先记录有空调器10所在位置。空调器10所在位置可以指空调器10的经纬度坐标数据,例如,GPS定位数据,或者BDS定位数据。云端数据库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空调器10所在位置相对应的天气参数预测信息。
使用上述方法,本实施例的空调器10,通过获取空调器10所在位置的天气参数预测信息,并将天气参数预测信息中记录的天气参数与预设的天气参数范围进行比较,从而判断是否执行获取实时环境参数的步骤,这使得本实施例的空调器10能够在天气参数出现异常值的情况下,执行检测工作环境的实时环境参数的步骤,从而可以减少或避免不间断地执行上述检测步骤,这有利于节约空调器10的能耗,且降低检测成本。
在执行上述步骤S302的过程中,可以启动检测装置,并根据检测装置的检测结果获取工作环境的实时环境参数。
上述步骤S304可以包括:获取喂养动物的物种信息,根据物种信息确 定目标环境参数。其中,根据物种信息确定目标环境参数的步骤可以包括:向与空调器10数据连接的云端数据库发送查询请求,以获取与物种信息相对应的目标环境参数,云端数据库中保存有喂养动物的物种信息与对应的目标环境参数的对应关系。物种信息可以标示有喂养动物所属的物种,例如“科”、“属”、“种”或者“亚种”等,也可以指喂养动物的学名。例如,狗的物种为家犬,猫的物种为家猫。
使用上述方法,通过获取喂养动物的物种信息,并利用云端数据库获取与物种信息相对应的目标环境参数,使得本实施例的空调器10能够自动地确定出与喂养动物相对应的目标环境参数,而无需用户手动设定,当喂养动物的种类发生变化时,也无需用户手动地更改物种信息或者目标环境参数,这既能降低用户的工作量,提高空调器10的自动化程度,又能减少或避免因用户的参数设定失误而导致喂养动物产生不适,提高了空调器10运行的可靠性。
获取喂养动物的物种信息的步骤可以包括:获取喂养动物的图像,根据图像确定喂养动物的物种信息。根据图像确定喂养动物的物种信息的过程中,通过将对喂养动物的图像进行识别,例如可以将喂养动物的图像与预先保存的多个图像样本进行匹配,确定出于喂养动物的图像相匹配的图像样本,并根据确定出的图像样本确定喂养动物的物种信息,其中,多个图像样本可以预先保存于云端数据库中,且每一图像样本对应设置有一物种信息。本实施例的空调器10可以包括图像采集装置,设置于室内机110上,或者可以设置于工作环境中的任意位置,空调器10可以启动图像采集装置来获取喂养动物的图像。在另一些实施例中,空调器10也可以不专门配置图像采集装置,例如可以向工作环境中的外部摄像头发送查询请求,以获取外部摄像头采集到的喂养动物的图像。
在一些可选的实施例中,在根据物种信息确定目标环境参数的步骤之后,获取与工作环境中的喂养动物相对应的目标环境参数的步骤还可以包括:获取喂养动物的活动状态和活动位置,根据喂养动物的活动状态和活动位置调整目标环境参数。
也就是说,在获取目标环境参数的过程中,可以先根据物种信息确定目标环境参数的初始值,然后可以再根据喂养动物当前的活动状态和活动位置调整目标环境参数的初始值,得到目标环境参数的调整值,然后按照目标环 境参数的调整值确定空调器10的运行参数。即,在目标环境参数的确定过程中,本实施例同时考虑到了喂养动物的物种信息、以及当前的活动状态和活动位置,这使得目标环境参数能够反映喂养动物的实际需求,提高目标环境参数的准确性。
喂养动物的活动状态可以包括睡眠状态、运动状态。空调器10可以通过采集喂养动物的心率、血压等信息来获取喂养动物的活动状态。例如,喂养动物可以佩戴有项圈,该项圈可以检测喂养动物的心率、血压等信息。空调器10可以与上述项圈预先建立数据连接,并可以向项圈发送查询请求,以获取喂养动物的心率、血压等信息。通过对心率、血压等信息进行分析,可以获取喂养动物的活动状态。例如,空调器10中可以预设有心率、血压等信息与各种活动状态之间的对应关系表,通过查询对应关系表,可以确定与当前心率、血压等信息相对应的活动状态。
活动位置可以指喂养动物在工作环境中所处的位置。在实际应用中,喂养动物的活动位置可以为工作环境中的任意位置,例如地板、沙发、休息窝等。工作环境中可以预设有空间直角坐标系,喂养动物的活动位置可以采用喂养动物在空间直角坐标系中的坐标进行表示。
根据喂养动物的活动状态和活动位置调整目标环境参数的步骤可以包括:判断喂养动物的活动状态是否为预设的特定活动状态,若喂养动物的活动状态为特定活动状态,则判断喂养动物的活动位置是否为与特定活动状态相对应的特定活动位置,若喂养动物的活动位置为特定活动位置,则按照特定活动状态和特定活动位置之间的对应关系调整目标环境参数。本实施例中,空调器10可以预设有对应关系表,该对应关系表规定有喂养动物的多个特定活动状态,且规定有特定活动状态与特定活动位置之间的对应关系,且每一对应关系规定有目标环境参数的一调整方法。
例如,预设的特定活动状态可以包括睡眠状态,与该特定活动状态相对应的预设的特定活动位置可以为地板。当喂养动物的活动状态为睡眠状态且喂养动物的活动位置为地板时,喂养动物在地板上进入睡眠状态。当喂养动物在地板上进入睡眠状态时,由于地板较凉,喂养动物在地板上睡眠的体感温度相对较低。此时,按照特定活动状态和特定活动位置之间的对应关系调整目标环境参数,可以指在喂养动物的体感温度较低的情况下,提高目标环境温度,例如可将目标环境温度提高1℃。
又如,预设的特定活动状态可以为运动状态,与该特定活动状态相对应的预设的特定活动位置可以为阳台。当喂养动物的活动状态为运动状态且喂养动物的活动位置为阳台时,喂养动物在阳台上进行运动。当喂养动物在阳台上处于运动状态时,体感温度往往相对较高。此时,按照特定活动状态和特定活动位置调整目标环境参数,可以指在喂养动物的体感温度较高的情况下,降低目标环境温度,例如可将目标环境温度降低1℃。
使用上述方法,通过对喂养动物当前所处的活动状态和活动位置进行综合分析,并根据分析结果调整目标环境参数,有利于提高目标环境参数的确定过程的精度,从而优化空调器10的空气调节效果。
在一些可选的实施例中,考虑到部分种类的喂养动物仅对高温较为敏感,对于上述步骤S306,针对温度这一参数而言,实时环境参数超出目标环境参数可以指实时环境温度高于目标环境温度。上述步骤S308中,在根据目标环境参数确定空调器10的运行参数的过程中,若目标环境温度为26℃,实时环境参数高于目标环境温度,则可以确定空调器10的运行温度为26℃,制冷。空调器10按照上述运行参数启动运行时,送风风速可以为预设的低风档。
在又一些可选的实施例中,考虑到部分种类的喂养动物仅对低温较为敏感,对于上述步骤S306,针对温度这一参数而言,实时环境参数超出目标环境参数还可以指实时环境温度低于目标环境温度。若目标环境温度为26℃,实时环境参数低于目标环境温度,则可以确定空调器10的运行温度为26℃,制热。空调器10按照上述运行参数启动运行时,送风风速可以为预设的低风档。
当工作环境的实时环境温度达到目标环境温度时或者空调器10的运行时长达到预设的时长阈值(例如2~5h)时,空调器10可以退出宠物模式并停机。空调器10在退出宠物模式之后可以向数据连接的终端设备推送提示消息(例如,“您的爱宠在宠物模式运行的时长阈值内一直处于舒适的温度中”)。在空调器10运行宠物模式的过程中,用户可以通过终端设备中止或打断宠物模式,也可以手动地调整空调器10的运行参数。空调器10在工作环境的实时环境温度再次超出目标环境温度时,空调器10可以再次自动启动。
在一些进一步的实施例中,空调器10可以在调节工作环境温度的同时, 对工作环境进行净化,以达到除菌效果,例如可以每隔预设的时间间隔(例如1~3h)启动一次净化模式。在上述步骤S310之后,控制方法还可以包括:获取与喂养动物相对应的净化工作参数,按照净化工作参数运行净化模式。净化工作参数是指净化模式的工作参数,例如净化时长等。
其中获取与喂养动物相对应的净化工作参数的步骤可以包括:获取喂养动物的生理代谢物信息,根据生理代谢物信息确定空调器10的净化工作参数。获取喂养动物的生理代谢物信息的步骤包括:获取喂养动物的物种信息和生理阶段信息,根据喂养动物的物种信息和生理阶段信息确定生理代谢物信息。生理阶段信息标示有喂养动物当前所处的生理阶段,生理阶段可以指喂养动物在生命周期中所处的阶段,例如,对于家犬而言,其生理阶段可以包括幼年阶段、成年阶段、哺乳阶段、脱毛阶段等。
喂养动物的生理代谢物信息可以用于表示喂养动物进行生理活动时排出体外(例如从体内排至体外,或者从体表脱落)的排泄物。通过获取喂养动物的物种信息和生理阶段信息,可以确定生理代谢物的信息,例如排泄物的单次排泄的平均重量等。在根据生理代谢物信息确定空调器10的净化工作参数的过程中,可以根据排泄物的单次排泄的平均重量确定净化工作参数。
对于家犬而言,在根据物种信息和生理阶段信息确定生理代谢物的过程中,例如,当家犬处于幼年阶段时,其生理代谢物为粪便或尿液,单次排泄的平均重量较小,此时净化时长较短,例如可以为0.1~0.5h,而当家犬处于成年阶段时,其生理代谢物的单次排泄的平均重量较大,此时净化时长较长,例如可以为0.5~1h。
在一些可选的实施例中,获取喂养动物的生理代谢物信息的步骤可以变换为:获取喂养动物的体型信息,根据喂养动物的体型信息确定生理代谢物信息。其中,喂养动物的体型信息用于标示喂养动物的体型大小,体型大小可以规定有多个等级,例如可以包括大型动物等级,中型动物等级,小型动物等级等。体型越大,生理代谢物的单次排泄的平均重量越大,相应地,净化时长越长。
在按照净化工作参数运行净化模式的过程中,可以每隔预设的时间间隔(例如1~3h)运行一次净化模式,且每次净化模式的运行时长为净化时长。在一些可选的实施例中,上述净化模式还可以在空调器10未开始调节工作 环境的实时环境温度的情况下单独启动。
使用上述方法,通过获取与喂养动物相对应的净化工作参数,并按照净化工作参数运行净化模式,使得本实施例的空调器10能够在调节工作环境的温度的过程中对工作环境进行净化。通过根据喂养动物的生理代谢物信息确定空调器10的净化工作参数,本实施例的空调器10能够有针对性地对工作环境进行消杀处理,这有利于提高空调器10的净化能力。
图4是根据本发明一个实施例的空调器10的控制流程图。

步骤S404,判断设定时间段内空调器10所在位置的天气参数是否处于预设的天气参数范围内,若是,则执行步骤S406,若否,则执行步骤S402。例如,空调器10可以每天晚上9点获取一次天气参数预测信息,若设定时间段内空调器10所在位置的天气参数未处于预设的天气参数范围内,则可以间隔24小时之后再次获取一次天气参数预测信息。
步骤S406,获取空调器10的室内机110所在工作环境的实时环境参数。
步骤S408,获取喂养动物的物种信息。
步骤S410,向与空调器10数据连接的云端数据库发送查询请求,以获取与物种信息相对应的目标环境参数。云端数据库中保存有物种信息与对应的目标环境参数的对应关系。
步骤S412,获取喂养动物的活动状态和活动位置。
步骤S414,判断喂养动物的活动状态是否为预设的特定活动状态,若是,则执行步骤S416,若否,则执行步骤S420,即,直接按照与物种信息相对应的目标环境参数确定空调器10的运行参数。
步骤S416,判断喂养动物的活动位置是否为与特定活动状态相对应的特定活动位置,若是,则执行步骤S418,若否,则执行步骤S420。
步骤S418,按照特定活动状态和特定活动位置之间的对应关系调整目标环境参数。
步骤S420,判断实时环境参数是否超出目标环境参数,若是,则执行步骤S422,若否,则执行步骤S406,例如,在24小时之内空调器10可以再次获取工作环境的实时环境参数。
步骤S422,根据目标环境参数确定空调器10的运行参数。
步骤S424,按照运行参数启动空调器10开始调节工作环境。
通过获取空调器10的室内机110所在工作环境的实时环境参数、以及与喂养动物相对应的目标环境参数,并将实时环境参数与目标环境参数进行比较,在实时环境参数超出目标环境参数的情况下,根据目标环境参数确定空调器10的运行参数,并按照确定出的运行参数启动空调器10开始调节工作环境。本实施例通过改进空调器10的控制方法,并提供一种新的空调器10,使其能够自动地直接地为喂养动物提供舒适的生活环境,提高了空调器10的智能化程度,从而无需增设专门的宠物空调即可为喂养动物提供空气调节服务。
至此,本领域技术人员应认识到,虽然本文已详尽示出和描述了本发明的多个示例性实施例,但是,在不脱离本发明精神和范围的情况下,仍可根据本发明公开的内容直接确定或推导出符合本发明原理的许多其他变型或修改。因此,本发明的范围应被理解和认定为覆盖了所有这些其他变型或修改。
