The key of present embodiment air conditioner is following three parts:

1. A structure for placing objects to be dried that can realize the lifting function.

2. The air outlet assembly that can shrink to the air outlet or extend out of the air outlet and guide the airflow from the air outlet to the structure to be dried.

3. Synchronously with the air outlet component to realize the extension function and the wind deflector that can swing the wind at a large angle.

The above three parts are described in detail below:

The object to be dried is placed on the structure for placing the object to be dried.

Wherein, the objects to be dried are generally daily necessities such as clothes, towels, shoes, hats, etc. Of course, they may also be other articles that need to be dried.

The structure for placing the objects to be dried can carry the objects to be dried. In this embodiment, the drying rack 2 is taken as an example for illustration.

The clothes drying rack 2 of this embodiment includes a clothes drying part 21 for carrying clothes and connecting parts 22 located at both ends of the clothes drying part 21 , and the connecting parts 22 are used for connecting with the casing 11 . The clothes drying part 21 and the connecting parts 22 at both ends form a U shape.

In order to make the clothes drying part 21 as close as possible to the air outlet 13 and facilitate the installation of the clothes drying rack 2 and the housing 11, the connecting part 22 of this embodiment is L-shaped, including a first part and a second part at a certain angle, The first part is connected with the housing 11 , and the second part is connected with the laundry part 21 . Wherein, the part where the first part is connected to the housing 11 is close to the rear wall of the housing 11 .

In this embodiment, since the air conditioner body 1 is a wall-mounted air conditioner, and the air outlet 13 is located at the lower part of the front panel of the housing 11, the clothes drying rack 2 is arranged below the housing 11 so that the clothes drying rack 2 is as close as possible to the outlet. Tuyere 13. In addition, the location of the drying rack 2 under the casing 11 can also prevent the air conditioner from occupying the indoor space in the horizontal direction, so that the indoor space can be used more reasonably.

Preferably, the air conditioner includes a driving module for placing the object to be dried, which is used to drive the object placing structure to be dried-clothes rack 2 to approach or move away from the housing 11 .

When the air conditioner does not need the drying function, the driving module of the object-to-be-dried placement structure drives the drying rack 2 close to the housing 11 (raised), so as to reduce the space occupation of the drying rack 2 .

When the air conditioner needs to be dried, the driving module of the structure for placing the objects to be dried drives the drying rack 2 away from the housing 11 (downward), so that the objects to be dried can be placed on the drying rack 2, and at the same time, it is convenient for the air outlet component to blow out the air. To the drying rack 2.

In the present embodiment, the clothes-drying rack 2 is arranged on the casing 11 in a liftable manner. When the clothes need to be dried, the clothes-drying rack 2 is lowered, and when the clothes of the connecting rod are not needed, the clothes-drying rack 2 is raised.

The driving module of the structure for placing the objects to be dried is connected to the first part of the connecting portion 22, and is used to drive the drying rack to move.

The driving module of the object to be dried is installed in the housing 11, and the housing 11 has an opening for the first part of the connecting part 22 to pass through.

Specifically, the driving module of the object-to-dry placement structure includes a first driving motor 23 and a first driving gear 24; the first driving motor 23 drives the first driving gear 24 to rotate. A rack 25 is formed on a first portion of the connecting portion 22 of the clothes drying rack 2 , and the first driving gear 24 is engaged with the rack 25 . Therefore, when the first driving motor 23 rotates in the forward direction, it drives the first driving gear 24 to rotate in the forward direction, and drives the rack 25 to move downward, so that the clothes-drying part 21 is away from the housing 11 to the clothes-drying position. In order to prevent the clothes drying rack 2 from completely detaching from the housing 11 , a limiting portion 26 is provided on the first part and in the housing 11 to prevent the first part from detaching from the housing 11 . When the first drive motor 23 rotates in reverse, it drives the first drive gear 24 to rotate in reverse, and drives the rack 25 to move upward, so that the clothes drying part 21 approaches the housing 11 to a retracted position.

In this embodiment, the driving module of the structure for placing the object to be dried includes two groups, which are respectively linked with the racks 25 of the two connecting parts 22 . That is to say, there are two first driving motors 23 and two first driving gears 24 , which can improve the running stability of the drying rack 2 .

The rack 2 for placing clothes in this embodiment adopts a rack and pinion lifting mechanism. When the user has clothes to be dried, the first drive motor 23 rotates the rack and pinion structure to drive the clothes drying part 21 down, and when it falls to the lowest position, it passes through the limit position. The partial limit prevents the clothes hanger 2 from falling from the housing 11, and the clothes are placed on the clothes hanger 2, and the air conditioner body 1 works to speed up the drying of the clothes. After the clothes are dried and the user collects the clothes, the first driving gear 24 drives the clothes drying part 21 to rise.

Preferably, a sterilization module and/or a heating module are also arranged on the structure for placing the object to be dried.

The sterilizing module is used for sterilizing the objects to be dried. The sterilization module can adopt a UV light sterilization module.

The heating module is used to heat the object to be dried to further improve the drying efficiency. The heating module is preferably a heating strip, which can assist in heating and drying the clothes.

The heating module is generally arranged on the lower side of the clothes drying section 21 .

The air outlet assembly is used to shrink to the air outlet 13 (as shown in FIG. 6 ) or to extend out of the air outlet 13 and guide the airflow of the air outlet 13 to the structure for placing the drying objects (as shown in FIG. 7 ).

Specifically, when the air outlet assembly shrinks to the air outlet 13, the air outlet assembly has no effect on the air conditioner body 1, and the air conditioner body 1 can realize the air outlet of the normal air conditioning function, and the air conditioner body 1 receives the air conditioner operation mode signal and the set temperature 1. Set the wind speed gear signal, the air conditioner body 1 operates according to the received signal, the air in the air conditioner housing 11 is discharged from the air conditioner housing 11 through the air outlet 13, and the environment where the air conditioner body is located is adjusted for temperature and humidity. When the air outlet assembly extends out of the air outlet 13, the air outlet of the air outlet assembly is directed towards the structure for placing the object to be dried, and the airflow of the air outlet 13 is directed to the structure for placing the object to be dried, and the air in the air conditioner housing 11 passes through the air outlet 13 And the air outlet component blows to the object to be dried on the structure to be dried to accelerate the drying of the object to be dried. At this time, if the user needs heating or no cooling demand, it is preferred that the air conditioner body runs in the heating mode. for maximum drying efficiency. When the user is in a cooling demand state, in order to avoid adverse effects on the comfort of the user due to heating of the air conditioner body, the air conditioner body is generally in the air supply mode.

The structure of the air outlet assembly is described in detail below:

The air outlet assembly includes an air outlet frame 31, a soft connection structure 32 and an air outlet frame driving module.

The air outlet frame 31 is a rigid frame structure, and the size of the air outlet frame 31 matches the air outlet 13 or is slightly larger than the size of the air outlet 13. Therefore, when the air outlet assembly shrinks to the state of the air outlet 13, the air outlet The inner opening of the frame 31 is aligned with the air outlet 13 or located on the outer edge of the air outlet 13, the air outlet assembly will not block the air outlet 13, and will not affect the normal air outlet state of the air conditioner body 1.

In this embodiment, the air outlet frame 31 encloses a strip-shaped area, and the air outlet frame 31 includes two long sides and two short sides. The shape of the air outlet frame 31 is adapted to the shape of the housing at the location of the air outlet 13. In this embodiment, the long side is a straight line, and the short side is an arc.

Since only the air outlet frame 31 is a rigid structure in the air outlet assembly, the drive module is used to drive the air outlet frame 31 to shrink to the air outlet 13 or extend out of the air outlet 13 .

In order to ensure the stability of the air outlet frame 31 shrinking or extending, and at the same time ensure that the position is determined after each extension, it can face the clothes drying rack 2 , preferably, the air outlet frame 31 is rotatably mounted on the housing 11 .

Generally, the end of the air outlet frame 31 is rotatably mounted on the housing 11 through a rotating shaft, and further, the short side of the air outlet frame 31 is rotatably installed on the housing 11 . In this embodiment, in order to stretch out the air outlet frame 31 as much as possible, a rotating shaft is provided at a position where the short side meets the long side, or a rotating shaft is provided at a position where the short side is close to the long side. Since the clothes drying rack 2 is located under the housing 11, the rotating shaft is located at the lower end of the short side when the air outlet assembly is retracted to the air outlet 13 state, so that when the air outlet assembly stretches out from the air outlet 13, the air outlet frame 31 is a state of swinging around the lower long side until the air outlet frame 31 faces the direction of the clothes drying rack 2 .

Preferably, the swing angle of the air outlet frame is 20-30 degrees, further, the swing angle is 25 degrees.

The flexible connection structure 32 is used to connect the air outlet frame 31 and the air outlet 13, so that when the air outlet assembly extends out of the air outlet 13, a closed passage is formed between the air outlet frame 31 and the air outlet 13, so that the air flow at the air outlet 13 Conducted to the air outlet frame 31.

The soft connection structure 32 is made of elastic material or soft material. When the air outlet frame 31 extends out of the air outlet 13, the soft connection structure 32 is stretched and is in a stretched state. When the air outlet frame 32 is reset to the air outlet 13 , the soft connection structure 32 returns to a normal state.

Preferably, the flexible connection structure 32 is an organ-like structure. When the air outlet frame 31 extends out of the air outlet 13 , the organ-like structure stretches, and when the air outlet frame 32 retracts to the air outlet 13 , the organ-like structure contracts.

The organ-type structure adopted in this embodiment can not only ensure that when the air outlet frame 31 shrinks to the air outlet 13, the shape of the organ-type structure after shrinking is regular, and both are located between the air outlet frame 31 and the housing 11 on the outer edge of the air outlet 13, avoiding The soft connection structure blocks the air from the air outlet 13. Most importantly, the organ-like structure can also reduce the resistance when the air outlet frame 31 extends and shrinks to the air outlet 13, and avoids excessive stretching of the soft connection structure 32. Stretch and wear, prolong the service life of the soft connection structure 32.

In this embodiment, the drive module drives the air outlet assembly to shrink or extend out of the air outlet 13 . Specifically, the drive module includes a second drive motor 33 , a second drive gear 34 and a drive link 35 .

The drive module is located in the casing 11 .

The second drive motor 33 drives the second drive gear 34 to rotate.

The drive link 35 is fixedly connected to the second drive gear 34 , and the direction of the drive link 35 is the same as the direction of the radius of the second drive gear 34 .

The free end of the driving link 35 is slidably connected with the air outlet frame 31 .

Specifically, a rotating chute (not shown in the figure) is provided on the opposite side of the air outlet frame 31 and the housing 11. The free end of the driving link 35 has a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is located in the rotating chute. The free end of the driving rod 35 The rotating shaft at the end is limited in the rotating chute, and can rotate and slide along the rotating chute.

In this embodiment, the driving module includes two groups, which are respectively assembled with the two short sides of the air outlet frame 31 . That is, there are two second driving motors 33 , two second driving gears 34 , and two driving connecting rods 35 , which can improve the stability of the air outlet frame 31 in action.

When the drive module drives the air outlet assembly to extend out of the air outlet 13, the second drive motor 33 rotates in the forward direction, drives the second drive gear 34 to rotate in the forward direction, drives the drive connecting rod 35 to rotate in the forward direction, and the free end of the drive connecting rod 35 is at the outlet. The air frame 31 rotates and slides in the rotation chute, so that the air outlet frame 31 swings downward around its own rotating shaft, away from the housing 11, and the soft connection structure 32 is stretched until the air outlet frame 31 faces the clothes drying rack 2, The second driving motor 33 stops rotating. At this moment, the air outlet assembly is formed to stretch out from the air outlet 13, and the air outlet 13 can be guided to the air outlet frame 31 through the soft connection structure 32, and then exits according to the direction of the air outlet frame 31. The wind is directed to the air outlet of the air conditioner body 1 to the drying rack 2.

When the drive module drives the air outlet assembly to shrink to the air outlet 13, the second drive motor 33 rotates in the reverse direction, drives the second drive gear 34 to rotate in the reverse direction, drives the drive link 35 to rotate in the reverse direction, and the free end of the drive link 35 is in the air outlet The frame 31 rotates and slides in the rotation chute, so that the air outlet frame 31 swings upward around its own rotating shaft, closes to the housing 11, and the soft connection structure 32 shrinks until the air outlet frame 31 is completely retracted to the outer edge of the air outlet 13. On the casing 11, the soft connection structure 32 is clamped on the casing 11 on the outer edge of the air outlet frame 31 and the air outlet 13, and the second drive motor 33 stops rotating. At this time, the air outlet assembly shrinks to the air outlet 13. Since the air outlet frame 31 and the soft connection structure 32 are located on the housing 11 at the outer edge of the air outlet 13, the air outlet assembly will not block the air outlet 13 and will not affect the normal air outlet of the air conditioner body 1. .

In order to realize the adjustment of the air outlet direction of the air conditioner body 1, the air conditioner of this embodiment further includes an air deflector 41, which is used to adjust the air outlet direction of the air conditioner body 1 to meet the user's requirements for the air outlet direction.

Furthermore, when the air conditioner is in the state of drying clothes, because the size and length of the clothes are different, or the drying positions of the clothes are different, or in order to improve the drying efficiency, it is also necessary to adjust the air outlet direction of the air conditioner body.

In order to meet the requirements of adjusting the air outlet direction in the above two situations, it is preferable to install an air guide plate 41 on the air outlet frame 31 in this embodiment. When the air outlet assembly extends out of the air outlet 31, the air guide plate 41 extends simultaneously The air outlet 31 swings at the air outlet frame 31 to guide the air outlet of the air outlet frame to adjust the air outlet direction; when the air outlet assembly is recovered to the air outlet 31, it swings at the air outlet frame 31 to The air outlet of the air outlet frame also guides the air outlet 31 to realize the adjustment of the air outlet direction.

In this embodiment, a wind deflector driving module is further provided to drive the wind deflector 41 to rotate, so as to adjust the air outlet direction.

Specifically, the wind deflector drive module includes a third drive motor 42, the third drive motor 42 is linked with the wind deflector 41, and the third drive motor 42 can be directly connected to the wind deflector 41 or connected to the wind deflector through a gear or a gear assembly. 41 connections.

As shown in FIG. 8 , the air conditioner of this embodiment further includes a signal receiving module, a control module and a humidity detection module. In this embodiment, it is judged whether the drying is finished based on the change of humidity detected by the humidity detection module.

The signal receiving module is used for receiving an air-conditioning mode signal or a drying mode signal.

The control module is used to control the air outlet component to shrink to the air outlet when receiving the air-conditioning mode signal (heating mode, cooling mode or dehumidification mode, etc.), and control the air-conditioning body to operate in the mode corresponding to the air-conditioning mode signal.

The control module is used to control the air conditioner body to enter the drying function when receiving the drying mode signal: control the air outlet component to extend out of the air outlet and direct the airflow from the air outlet to the structure to be dried, control the air conditioner body to run in heating mode or Air supply mode. When receiving the drying mode signal, it is indicated that the object to be dried is placed on the structure to be dried, and the air in the air conditioner housing 11 is blown to the object to be dried on the structure to be dried through the air outlet 13 and the air outlet assembly. Accelerate the drying of the items to be dried. At this time, if the user needs heating or no cooling demand, it is preferable to run the heating mode of the air conditioner body to maximize the drying efficiency. When the user is in a cooling demand state, in order to avoid adverse effects on the comfort of the user due to heating of the air conditioner body, the air conditioner body is generally in the air supply mode.

The control module is used for judging the end of the drying function when the object to be dried is dried according to the humidity change detected by the humidity detection module after receiving the drying mode signal.

The control module is used to control the object-to-dry placement structure away from the housing to a set distance when receiving the drying mode signal, so that the air from the air outlet component blows onto the object-to-dry placement structure.

The control module is used to control the air deflector to be in a swinging state when receiving the drying mode signal, so as to speed up drying of the objects to be dried.

The air conditioner also includes an indoor temperature detection module for detecting indoor temperature.

The control module is also used to obtain the operating state of the air conditioner body before receiving the drying mode signal; it is used to control the operation of the air conditioner body after receiving the drying mode signal when the operating state of the air conditioner body is cooling mode or dehumidification mode before receiving the drying mode signal Air supply mode; used to control the air conditioner body to run in heating mode after receiving the dry mode signal when the air conditioner body is in the heating mode before receiving the dry mode signal; used to control the air conditioner body before receiving the dry mode signal When the operating state is standby or shut down, the indoor temperature is detected after receiving the drying mode signal. When the indoor temperature is higher than the set temperature, the air conditioner body is controlled to operate in the air supply mode. The wind mode or the heating mode or the heating mode and the air supply mode are switched regularly, or the air supply mode is operated after the heating mode is set for a set time.

The control module is used to judge whether the object to be dried is dry according to the humidity change detected by the humidity detection module within a set time, and when the object to be dried is dried, controls the air conditioner body to switch to the operating state before receiving the drying mode signal.

The control module judges whether the object to be dried is dry according to the humidity change detected by the humidity detection module within a set time. When the humidity changes within the set time, it means that the object to be dried has evaporated water and has not been dried.

Alternatively, the control module detects the humidity according to the starting time of the set time. When the difference between the two humidity changes is greater than the set humidity change value, it means that the object to be dried still has water evaporated and has not been dried. When the value is less than the set humidity change value, it means that the moisture on the object to be dried has evaporated and dried.

Preferably, the control module is also used to control the reverse rotation of the fan of the air conditioner body within the set time, so that the air passing through the object to be dried will pass through the humidity detection module, so as to facilitate more accurate detection of whether it is dry.

The control module is also used to control the operating state of the air conditioner body in the air supply mode and before receiving the drying mode signal when the operating state of the air conditioner body is cooling mode or dehumidification mode before receiving the drying mode signal. Switch between timed intervals.

This embodiment also proposes a control method of the air conditioner:

When receiving the air-conditioning mode signal, the air outlet assembly is controlled to shrink to the air outlet to control the air-conditioning body to operate in the mode corresponding to the air-conditioning mode signal. Wherein, the air-conditioning mode signal includes a cooling mode signal, a heating mode signal, a dehumidification mode signal, and the like. This mode meets the needs of users to use the air conditioner.

At the same time, the air conditioner can also receive the set temperature signal, wind speed signal and wind direction signal after receiving the mode signal. The wind direction setting signal controls the angle of the wind deflector.

When receiving the drying mode signal, control the air conditioner body to enter the drying function: control the air outlet component to extend out of the air outlet and guide the airflow from the air outlet to the structure to be dried, and control the air conditioner body to operate in heating mode or air supply mode. This mode satisfies the user's need to dry things to be dried, and at the same time takes into account the user's need to use the air conditioner as much as possible.

After receiving the drying mode signal, it is judged according to the humidity change detected by the humidity detection module that the drying function ends when the object to be dried is dried.

Since the operation of the air conditioner body in the air-drying mode will have a certain impact on the indoor environment, in order to avoid too much impact on the user, this embodiment preferably acquires the operating status of the air-conditioner body before receiving the air-drying mode signal, and according to the received air-drying mode signal The running state of the air conditioner body before the signal controls the running state of the air conditioner body after receiving the drying mode signal.

Specifically, the running state of the air conditioner body before receiving the drying mode signal is acquired, wherein the running state of the air conditioner body includes cooling mode, dehumidification mode, heating mode, standby or shutdown state. Generally, the operating state of the air conditioner body is recorded, and when receiving the air-drying mode signal, the recorded operating state of the air-conditioner body before receiving the air-drying mode signal is read.

Before receiving the drying mode signal, when the operating state of the air conditioner body is cooling mode or dehumidification mode, after receiving the drying mode signal, control the air outlet component to extend out of the air outlet and guide the airflow of the air outlet to the structure for placing the dried objects , to control the air conditioner to operate in the air supply mode. On the one hand, this method can ensure the comfort of the user, and on the other hand, it can also avoid problems such as slowing down the drying speed caused by cold wind and condensation on the surface of the dried object. Preferably, the blower fan of the air conditioner body is controlled to be in a high wind position, so as to speed up the drying speed of the objects to be dried.

Before receiving the drying mode signal, when the operating state of the air conditioner body is heating mode, after receiving the drying mode signal, control the air outlet component to extend out of the air outlet and guide the airflow from the air outlet to the structure for placing the object to be dried. The air conditioner itself operates in heating mode. Preferably, before and after receiving the drying mode signal, the state of the air conditioner body in the heating mode (set temperature, set wind speed) remains unchanged, so as to give priority to meeting the user's heating comfort needs, and on the premise of meeting the user's heating comfort needs Next, dry the clothes.

Before receiving the air-drying mode signal, when the operating state of the air conditioner body is standby or shut down, after receiving the air-drying mode signal, the indoor temperature is detected, and when the indoor temperature is higher than the set temperature, the air outlet component is controlled to extend out of the air outlet and the air outlet The airflow from the tuyere is directed to the structure where the objects to be dried are placed, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate in the air supply mode. When the indoor temperature is less than or equal to the set temperature, the air outlet component is controlled to extend out of the air outlet and the airflow from the air outlet is directed to the objects to be dried Place the structure, control the air conditioner body to run the air supply mode, or control the air conditioner body to run the heating mode (preferably low windshield, set 20-28 degrees), or control the air conditioner body to time between the heating mode and the air supply mode Toggle, alternatively, operate the fan mode after operating the heating mode for a set time. This control method can ensure the user's comfort to the greatest extent while drying the clothes. Wherein, when the air conditioner body is running in the air supply mode, the fan of the air conditioner body is controlled to be in the high wind position, so as to speed up the drying speed of the objects to be dried.

When the operating state of the air-conditioning body is cooling mode or dehumidification mode before receiving the drying mode signal, after receiving the drying mode signal, control the air-conditioning body to switch regularly between the air supply mode and the operating state before receiving the drying mode signal, In order to keep the room in a cooling state as much as possible to ensure the cooling needs of users.

Specifically, after receiving the drying mode signal, it enters the drying state: the air outlet component extends out of the air outlet and directs the airflow from the air outlet to the structure to be dried, and the air conditioner runs in the air supply mode (the heat exchanger stops working, Fan working), after setting the time, switch to the operating state of the air conditioner before receiving the drying mode signal (cooling mode or dehumidification mode), the air outlet component shrinks to the air outlet, after the set time, enter the drying state, and cycle in turn .

After receiving the drying mode signal, the sterilizing module is started to sterilize and disinfect the objects to be dried. Wherein, the sterilizing module can be turned on all the time, or turned on at a fixed time, or turned on in the drying state and turned off in the running state of the air conditioner body before switching to receiving the drying mode signal.

Preferably, after receiving the drying mode signal, the structure for placing the object to be dried is controlled to a set distance away from the casing, so as to facilitate the air outlet component to discharge air to the structure for placing the object to be dried.

Further, after receiving the drying mode signal, the air outlet component extends out of the air outlet and directs the airflow at the air outlet to the structure for placing the object to be dried, and controls the air deflector to be in a swinging state, so as to further improve the drying effect of the object to be dried. speed and uniformity.

After receiving the drying mode signal, it is judged whether the object to be dried is dry, and when the object is drying, the air conditioner body is controlled to switch to the operating state before receiving the drying mode signal.

Specifically, the air conditioner in this embodiment judges whether the object to be dried is dry according to the humidity change detected by the humidity detection module within a set time. When the humidity changes within the set time, it means that the object to be dried has evaporated water and has not been dried.

Or, detect the humidity according to the starting time of the set time. When the difference between the two humidity changes is greater than the set humidity change value, it means that the object to be dried still has water evaporated and has not been dried. If the difference between the two humidity changes is less than When setting the humidity change value, it means that the moisture on the object to be dried has evaporated and dried.

Preferably, the fan of the air conditioner body is controlled to rotate in reverse within the set time, so that the air that passes through the object to be dried passes through the humidity detection module, so as to facilitate more accurate detection of whether it is dry.

The following describes a control process of the air conditioner in detail:

When the user is using the air conditioner, the air conditioner body is running normally (cooling, heating or dehumidification mode), and the air outlet component shrinks to the air outlet. After the user hangs the clothes on the drying rack, the air conditioner receives the drying mode signal, the air conditioning drying rack drives the motor to rotate, lowers the drying rack, and turns on two UV light sterilization modules to sterilize the clothes, and then the air outlet component extends The air outlet generally rotates 25 degrees. At this time, the air outlet component guides the airflow from the air outlet to the clothes hanger, and then controls the rotation of the air deflector so that the air deflector can swing back and forth 90 degrees for the clothes on the clothes hanger below. , to ensure that the air can be blown onto the clothes, and promote the air circulation on the surface of the clothes, so as to achieve the purpose of drying the clothes as soon as possible. If the air conditioner body is in the cooling (dehumidification) running state before receiving the drying mode signal, then when the drying mode signal is received, the fan blade speed of the air conditioner is adjusted to a strong gear, and the air conditioning mode is changed to the air supply mode at the same time, and the air deflector After blowing in a 90-degree cycle for 10 minutes, the fan of the air conditioner body rotates in reverse, and the air outlet sucks air for 1 minute. During this process, the humidity detection module monitors the change of humidity, and judges whether it is dry according to the change of humidity. The component retracts to the air outlet, and then continues to run for 20 minutes according to the original user-set cooling mode (the fan rotates forward) and the wind speed (retracting the air outlet component to the air outlet can prevent the cold wind from blowing on the clothes), and then use the air outlet component Stretch out the air outlet, switch the air supply mode to high wind speed and blow air for 10 minutes, the fan of the air conditioner body rotates in reverse, and the air outlet sucks air for 1 minute. During this process, the humidity detection module monitors the change of humidity, and judges whether it is dry according to the change of humidity. Repeat this cycle until it dries. If the air conditioner body is in the heating operation state before receiving the drying mode signal, the air outlet component will extend out, the air deflector will swing 90 degrees in a cycle, and it can run according to the heating operation state set by the user. The air conditioner body controls the fan at intervals of 30 minutes Rotate reversely for 1 minute, and the air outlet sucks air for 1 minute. During this process, the humidity detection module monitors the change of humidity, and judges whether it is dry according to the change of humidity. turn) until dry. In the process of drying clothes, due to the evaporation of water, the humidity will decrease, so the difference between the monitored humidity change data will gradually decrease. When the monitored humidity changes, it means that the clothes have not been dried and dried, and continue to dry according to the set logic Dry, when there is no change in the detected humidity, it means that the humidity of the clothes above and below the drying rack is the same, and the clothes have been dried. According to the set logic, the user will be reminded that the drying is complete, and the clothes can be collected. Continue to run according to the state set by the user. When the user collects the clothes, control the clothes hanger to rise up and reset.

When the user is not using the air conditioner, the air conditioner is in the standby or shutdown state. When the user hangs the clothes on the drying rack, the air conditioner receives the drying mode signal, and the air conditioning drying rack drives the motor to rotate to lower the drying rack. , and then turn on the UV light sterilization module of the clothes hanger to sterilize the clothes, then the air outlet assembly extends out of the air outlet, generally rotated 25 degrees, at this time, the air outlet assembly guides the airflow from the air outlet to the clothes hanger, and then controls the guide The wind plate rotates, so that the air deflector can swing back and forth 90 degrees for the clothes on the clothes hanger below, so as to ensure that the air can be blown to the clothes, and promote the air circulation on the surface of the clothes, so as to achieve the purpose of drying the clothes as soon as possible. Check the indoor temperature. If the indoor temperature is higher than 18 degrees, turn on the fan blades of the air conditioner to the high wind position, turn on the air supply mode of the air conditioner and continue to blow air for 30 minutes, then the fan rotates in the opposite direction, and the air outlet sucks air for 1 minute, and continuously monitors the change of humidity Data, judge whether it is dry according to the humidity change data, if not dry, continue to rotate the fan blade forward to blow air for 30 minutes, then rotate the fan reversely, suck air at the air outlet for 1 minute, monitor the humidity change data, and judge whether it is according to the humidity change data Let dry, cycle sequentially until dry. If the indoor temperature is less than or equal to 18 degrees, turn on the heating mode of the air conditioner, turn on the low wind gear, run at 26 degrees for heating for 30 minutes, then switch to the air supply mode, run at the high wind gear, and the air deflector swings back and forth 90 degrees to blow air 30 minutes, then the fan rotates in reverse, the air outlet sucks air for 1 minute, monitors the humidity change data, and judges whether it is dry according to the humidity change data. If it is not dry, switch the air supply mode to blow for 30 minutes, and then the fan rotates in reverse. Inhale air from the air outlet for 1 minute, monitor the humidity change data, judge whether it is dry according to the humidity change data, and cycle in turn until it is dry. In the process of drying clothes, due to the evaporation of water, the humidity will decrease, so the difference between the monitored humidity change data will gradually decrease. When the monitored humidity changes, it means that the clothes have not been dried and dried, and continue to dry according to the set logic Dry, when there is no change in the detected humidity, it means that the humidity of the clothes above and below the drying rack is the same, and the clothes have been dried. According to the set logic, the user will be reminded that the drying is complete, and the clothes can be collected. Continue to run according to the state set by the user. When the user collects the clothes, control the clothes hanger to rise up and reset.
