Background technique

Air conditioners have also been widely used as a common smart device for adjusting indoor temperature and humidity. Among them, during the operation of the air conditioner, when the indoor circulating air passes through the filter screen of the air conditioner, the dust particles in the room will be filtered and intercepted and adhered to the surface of the filter screen, causing blockage of the filter screen, thus affecting the air output of the air conditioner. , heating or cooling effect, and the blockage of the filter will breed more bacteria, affecting the health of consumers.

At present, consumers can be reminded to clean the filter screen by means of timed reminders. However, in the air conditioners in different environments, the degree of blockage of the filter screen is also very different within the same time period.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an air conditioner filter cleaning monitoring system provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1 , the air conditioner filter cleaning monitoring system includes: an air conditioner 100 and a monitoring device 200 .

The monitoring device 200 in the background or in the cloud can communicate with each air conditioner 100 to obtain data reported by the air conditioner 100. The reported data may include: environmental information detected by the air conditioner, such as the temperature value, humidity value, One or more of the fine particulate matter concentration value PM2.5, etc., and may also include: the operating state value of the air conditioner, including: one or more of the compressor operating frequency, the wind speed of the air outlet, the opening of the expansion valve, etc. .

Based on the data reported by the air conditioner 100, the monitoring device 200 can count the operating time corresponding to each wind speed gear of the air conditioner outlet within the set time, and determine the longest operating time as the first operating time. In this way, in the case where the first running duration is greater than the set duration, the first average wind speed value is obtained according to the reported wind speed value of each first air outlet corresponding to the first wind speed gear of the current air conditioner within the set time period, Wherein, the first wind speed gear corresponds to the first operating duration.

It can be seen that the monitoring equipment can control the air conditioner to clean the filter based on the big data reported by the air conditioner.

FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a method for monitoring and cleaning an air conditioner filter according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Combined with Figures 1 and 2, the process for monitoring the cleaning and monitoring of air-conditioning filters includes:

Step 201 : Determine the running duration corresponding to each wind speed gear of the air outlet of the current air conditioner within the set time period, and determine the longest running duration as the first running duration.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the set time period may be one day (24 hours), three days, one week, and so on. After the air conditioner is running, the data can be reported in real time or periodically, and the reported data includes the environmental information detected by the air conditioner and the operating state value of the air conditioner.

In this way, when the time corresponding to the set time period is reached, for example: 1:00 am, 3:00 am, or 5:00 am every day, or 2:00 am every Sunday, etc., it can be determined according to the data reported by each air conditioner. The running time corresponding to each wind speed gear corresponding to each air conditioner outlet. Among them, the air conditioner that is being counted and processed is the current air conditioner.

In some embodiments, determining the operating duration corresponding to each wind speed gear of the current air-conditioning outlet within the set time period includes: according to the reported identification value of each wind speed gear of the current air-conditioning outlet within the set time period and the corresponding time, obtain the actual running time corresponding to each wind speed gear, and determine the actual running duration as the running duration corresponding to each wind speed gear.

During the operation of the air conditioner, the wind speed corresponding to the air outlet can generally be divided into two or more wind speed gears, such as: high wind gear, medium wind gear and low wind gear, or, A wind speed gear and B wind speed gear , where the lower limit of the A wind speed gear is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the B wind speed gear. When the air conditioner communicates with the monitoring equipment, the reported data can include the identification value of each wind speed gear of the air outlet, that is, during the operation of the air conditioner, at the reporting time point, the wind speed gear of the running air outlet can be corresponded to. The identification value of each wind speed is sent to the monitoring device, so that the monitoring device can count the reported identification value of each wind speed gear and the corresponding time within the set time period, and obtain the actual operating time corresponding to each wind speed gear.

The actual running duration corresponding to each wind speed gear can be directly determined as the running duration corresponding to each wind speed gear. In some embodiments, the operating duration corresponding to each wind speed gear can also be determined in combination with the environmental information of the environment where the current air conditioner is located, which can include: according to the reported time period of each wind speed gear of the current air conditioner According to the identification value and the corresponding time, the actual operating time corresponding to each wind speed gear is obtained; according to the reported fine particulate matter concentration value of the environment where the air conditioner is located within the set time period, the weight value corresponding to each wind speed gear is obtained; The actual running time and the corresponding weight value are used to obtain the running time corresponding to each wind speed gear of the current air conditioner.

The corresponding relationship between the air quality level, the PM2.5 value range of the fine particulate matter concentration value and the time coefficient τ_n can be saved, so that the time coefficient corresponding to the fine particulate matter concentration value of the current environment where the air conditioner is located can be determined according to the saved corresponding relationship. τ_n.

Table 1 shows the corresponding relationship among an air quality level, a value range of a fine particle concentration value PM2.5, and a time coefficient τ_n according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

air quality class	Indoor PM2.5 value range (μg/m 3 )	Time coefficient τ_n
excellent	0<〖PM2.5〗_indoor≤75	1
Light Pollution & Moderate Pollution	75<〖PM2.5〗_indoor≤150	1.2
heavy pollution	150<〖PM2.5〗_indoor≤250	1.4
heavily polluted	250<〖PM2.5〗_indoor	1.5

Table 1

If within the set time period, for example: 1:00 on June 8, 2008 - 1:00 on June 9, 2019, according to the reported fine particle concentration value of the environment where the air conditioner is located, the obtained When 〖PM2.5〗_indoor is greater than 75 μg/m ³ , but less than or equal to ≤ 150 μg/m ³ , it can be determined that the time coefficient τ_n corresponding to the current air conditioner is 1.2.

After the time coefficient τ_n is determined, the weight value corresponding to each wind speed gear can be determined according to the time coefficient τ_n and each wind speed gear. For example: the high wind weight value corresponding to the high wind gear is τ_n*1, the stroke weight corresponding to the medium wind gear is τ_n*0.8, and the low wind weight corresponding to the low wind gear is τ_n*0.6. If the actual operation time corresponding to each wind speed gear is the actual operation time of high wind gf, the actual operation time of medium wind zf, and the actual operation time of low wind df, then according to the actual operation time and the corresponding weight value, the current air conditioner is The operating durations corresponding to various wind speed gears are: high wind running duration Gf=gf*τ_n*1, medium wind running duration Zf=zf*τ_n*0.8, that is, low wind running duration Df=df*τ_n*0.6.

Of course, in some embodiments, if the data reported by the air conditioner only includes the wind speed value of the air outlet of the air conditioner, there is no identification value for each wind speed gear, but if the monitoring device pre-stores each wind speed gear that matches the model of the air conditioner The monitoring device can also determine the wind speed gear corresponding to the reported wind speed value according to the saved wind speed range corresponding to each wind speed gear. The wind speed value of the air conditioner and the corresponding time are obtained to obtain the actual operating time corresponding to each wind speed gear. Likewise, the actual running duration can be directly determined as the running duration corresponding to each wind speed gear of the current air conditioner. Or, according to the reported fine particulate matter concentration value of the environment where the current air conditioner is located within the set time period, the weight value corresponding to each wind speed gear is obtained; according to the actual operating time and the corresponding weight value, each wind speed gear of the current air conditioner is obtained. Bit corresponding run time.

After counting the running durations corresponding to each wind speed gear of the current air conditioner within the set time period, the longest running duration can be determined as the first running duration. For example: Gf>Df>Zf, then the high-score running duration Gf may be determined as the first running duration, and at the same time, the high wind gear position is determined as the first wind speed gear position. That is, the first wind speed gear corresponds to the first running duration.

Step 202: In the case where the first running duration is greater than the set duration, obtain the first average wind speed value according to the reported wind speed value of each first air outlet corresponding to the first wind speed gear of the current air conditioner within the set time period .

A set duration can be preset according to the model of each air conditioner. In this way, the first operation duration corresponding to the first wind speed gear of the current air conditioner is relatively long, and when it is greater than the set duration corresponding to the current air conditioner, it is possible that the current air conditioner The filter screen needs to be cleaned, which can be further determined.

The data is reported in real time or at regular intervals during the operation of the air conditioner. The reported data includes the wind speed value of the air conditioner outlet. Here, it is only necessary to count the wind speed value of each first air outlet corresponding to the first wind speed gear, and obtain the first average wind speed. In some embodiments, obtaining the first average wind speed value includes: determining a first wind speed gear corresponding to the first operating duration, and a first identification value corresponding to the first wind speed gear; Among the wind speed values of the air outlet, the wind speed value carrying the first identification value is determined as the air speed value of the first air outlet, and is averaged to obtain the first average wind speed value.

The data reported by the air conditioner may include: the identification value of each wind speed gear and the corresponding air outlet air speed value, then only the wind speed value carrying the first identification value needs to be counted and averaged to obtain the first average wind speed value.

Of course, if in some embodiments, the data reported by the air conditioner includes: the air speed value of the air outlet of the air conditioner, but the wind speed range corresponding to each wind speed gear matching the model of the air conditioner is saved, then only the set time period can be counted. The wind speed value of the air outlet within the wind speed range corresponding to the first wind speed gear is averaged to obtain the first average wind speed value.

Step 203 : Control the current air conditioner to perform filter cleaning when it is determined that the first average wind speed value is smaller than the minimum threshold value in the first set no-clean wind speed range.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the monitoring device can be connected to one or more air conditioners, and the data reported by the multiple air conditioners can be obtained. Through intelligent learning, a better air conditioner model and the set no-cleaning wind speed of each wind speed gear can be obtained. Correspondence between ranges and save. That is, the wind speed value corresponding to each wind speed gear is within the corresponding set no-clean wind speed range, and the air outlet of the air conditioner will be relatively normal. Of course, the corresponding relationship between the air conditioner model and the set no-clean wind speed range of each wind speed gear can also be obtained and saved through network communication. If in the above process of determining the wind speed gear, the air conditioner saves the wind speed range corresponding to each wind speed gear matching the model of the air conditioner, which is the same as the set no-cleaning wind speed of each wind speed gear matching the model of the air conditioner saved here. The range is different. One is the wind speed range corresponding to each wind speed gear of the air outlet when the air conditioner is running, and the other is the wind speed range corresponding to each wind speed gear of the air outlet corresponding to the air-conditioning filter without cleaning.

Table 2 shows the correspondence between an air conditioner model and the set no-clean wind speed range of each wind speed gear according to the embodiment of the present disclosure.

model	Low wind setting no-clean wind speed range	Stroke set no-wash wind speed range	High wind setting no-clean wind speed range
A1	25-30	35-40	40-50
A2	20-25	30-35	35-40
....	....	....	....

Table 2

If the model of the current air conditioner is A1, the first average wind speed value is the average wind speed value of the stroke, which is 32, which is less than the minimum threshold of 35 in the no-clean wind speed range of the stroke setting as shown in Table 2. Therefore, the current air conditioner can be controlled to perform Filter cleaning.

Controlling the current air conditioner to perform filter cleaning may include: sending a cleaning instruction to the current air conditioner, and controlling the current air conditioner to perform filter cleaning. That is, the current air conditioner can automatically enter the cleaning mode.

In some embodiments, the accuracy of cleaning the air conditioner filter screen can be further improved. Controlling the current air conditioner to clean the filter screen includes: increasing the recorded number of times to be cleaned by one to obtain the number of times to be cleaned after the update; after the update, the number of times to be cleaned is greater than In the case of the set number of times, send a cleaning command to the current air conditioner to control the current air conditioner to clean the filter screen.

In this way, only when the number of times the first average wind speed value is less than the minimum threshold value in the first set no-clean wind speed range is greater than the set number of times, the current air conditioner will be controlled to clean the filter screen, which reduces the occasional factor, which causes the filter screen of the air conditioner to be cleaned. The accuracy of cleaning the air conditioner filter is improved, and resources are saved.

After the air conditioner is cleaned, the recorded number of times to be cleaned needs to be cleared, that is, when a cleaning command is sent to the current air conditioner, the recorded times to be cleaned should be cleared to zero. In this way, the accuracy of cleaning the air conditioner filter screen is further guaranteed.

Of course, the user can also participate in the filter cleaning of the air conditioner. In some embodiments, controlling the current air conditioner to perform filter cleaning further includes: sending reminder information for cleaning the current air conditioner filter to the user terminal. In this way, the user can timely learn the information that the filter screen of the current air conditioner needs to be cleaned, so that the cleaning operation can be performed.

It can be seen that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the data reported by the air conditioner, the first wind speed gear with the longest operating time of the air outlet of the air conditioner within the set time can be determined, and when the longest operating time is greater than the set time, the first wind speed position can be obtained. The first average wind speed value corresponding to a wind speed gear, when the first average wind speed value is less than the minimum threshold value corresponding to the first wind speed gear of the air conditioner, the air conditioner is controlled to clean the filter screen, so that the filter screen cleaning of the air conditioner is automatically realized. , reducing the probability of waste of resources due to meaningless filter cleaning, and also reducing the probability of not cleaning the filter in time and causing more bacteria to be blocked, improving the intelligence of air conditioning filter cleaning, and protecting consumers. health and improved comfort. Of course, when determining the operating time, the PM2.5 value of the environment where the air conditioner is located can also be taken into account, which further improves the accuracy of the air conditioner filter cleaning and improves the intelligence of the air conditioner.

The first set no-clean wind speed range corresponding to the first wind speed gear of the current air conditioner can be determined according to the corresponding relationship shown in Table 2.

Step 310: Determine whether the first average wind speed value is less than the minimum threshold value of the first set no-wash wind speed range? If yes, go to step 311, otherwise, this process ends.

In this way, when the first running duration is greater than the set duration, the wind speed determination module 420 can determine the first wind speed gear corresponding to the first running duration and the first identification value corresponding to the first wind speed gear, and report the Among the current air outlet air velocity values of the air conditioner, the air velocity value carrying the first identification value is determined as the first air outlet air velocity value, and average processing is performed to obtain the first average air velocity value.

In this way, the threshold determination unit 431 in the cleaning control module 430 can determine the first set no-clean wind speed range corresponding to the first wind speed gear of the current air conditioner according to the stored correspondence shown in Table 2. The comparison unit 432 compares the first average wind speed value with the minimum threshold value of the first set no-wash wind speed range, and when the first average wind speed value is smaller than the minimum threshold value of the first set no-wash wind speed range, the control unit 433 can increase the recorded number of times to be cleaned by one, and obtain the number of times to be cleaned after the update; if the number of times to be cleaned after the update is greater than the set number, send a cleaning instruction to the current air conditioner to control the current air conditioner to clean the filter screen. When sending the cleaning instruction to the current air conditioner, the clearing unit 434 clears the recorded number of times to be cleaned to zero. In addition, in the case that the number of times to be cleaned after the update is greater than the set number of times, the reminding unit 435 may send reminding information for cleaning the current air conditioner filter screen to the user terminal.

It can be seen that in this embodiment, the device for cleaning and monitoring the air conditioner filter can determine the first wind speed gear with the longest operating time of the air outlet of the air conditioner within the set time based on the data reported by the air conditioner, and when the longest operating time is greater than the set time. When the timing is long, the first average wind speed value corresponding to the first wind speed gear is obtained, and when the first average wind speed value is less than the minimum threshold value corresponding to the first wind speed gear of the air conditioner, the air conditioner is controlled to clean the filter screen, so that , The air conditioner filter cleaning is automatically realized, which reduces the probability of waste of resources due to meaningless filter cleaning, and also reduces the probability of not cleaning the filter in time and causing more bacteria to breed, improving the cleaning efficiency of the air conditioner filter. Intelligence also protects the health of consumers and improves comfort. Moreover, by controlling the air conditioner to clean the filter screen, the filter screen can be cleaned according to the results of multiple comparisons, which further improves the accuracy and intelligence of the air conditioner filter screen cleaning.
