Description

冷藏冷冻装置及其控制方法 技术领域
本发明涉及冷藏冷冻技术,特别是涉及一种冷藏冷冻装置及其控制方法。
背景技术
冷藏冷冻装置内湿度的高低会影响食材水分蒸发的快慢,从而影响食材的品质。当湿度过低时,食材的水分蒸发较快,会引起食材重量损失,继而造成食物储存效果差和食物保鲜期较短等问题。因此,对冷藏冷冻装置进行保湿始终是至关重要的研究课题。然而,目前的冷藏冷冻装置大多对冷藏室进行加湿保湿,很少关注冷冻室加湿保湿的问题。实际上,风冷式的冷藏冷冻装置在冷冻制冷期间普遍存在湿度波动较大的问题,湿度波动和湿度偏低,储存在冷冻间室内的食材会失水,从而影响食材的口感,而且还会造成营养的流失,影响用户体验。
现有技术中少有的关于冷冻室加湿的方案都是在冷藏冷冻装置内增加非常复杂的加湿装置。然而,冷冻室温度较低,加湿装置本身容易产生凝霜而被堵,而且加湿装置会占用风道空间或间室空间。因此,现有的这些方案不但会增加冷藏冷冻装置的成本和装配难度,而且还非常难以在实际中应用,使得冷冻室湿度低的问题得不到实际解决。

本发明的控制方法在冷藏冷冻装置达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机,而是先执行冷冻间室加湿操作以将冷冻间室内的湿度提高至符合预设条件后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以提高了冷冻间室内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
进一步地,本发明的控制方法在冷藏冷冻装置达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机,而是先停止冷冻风机,并通过调节压缩机的运行频率使得冷冻蒸发器的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室内的间室温度,然后再停止压缩机、启动冷冻风机,通过冷冻风机促使气流在冷冻蒸发器和冷冻间室之间循环流动。由于此时冷冻蒸发器的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室内的间室温度,因此,通过门封进入冷冻间室内的外界水汽、冷冻间室内的水分(例如食材挥发的水分)、以及冷冻蒸发器上的凝霜升华形成的水分会在温度更低的冷冻间室内凝结而不是凝结在冷冻蒸发器处,由此,可有效地提高冷冻间室内的水分含量,提高冷冻间室内的湿度。本发明在冷藏冷冻装置停机之前先提高冷冻间室内的湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以提高了冷冻间室内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
进一步地,本发明的控制方法在冷藏冷冻装置达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机和冷冻风机,而是将冷冻间室内的湿度提高到预设最高湿度后再停止压缩机和冷冻风机。也就是说,在冷藏冷冻装置停机之前先将冷冻间室内的湿度提高到预设最高湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以在停机期间使得冷冻间室内的湿度维持在预设最高湿度的较高水平,避免了冷冻间室内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
进一步地,本发明通过获取冷冻蒸发器的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室内的间室温度,监测蒸发器温度与间室温度的温差值,逐次地、缓慢地降低压缩机的运行频率,以使得冷冻蒸发器的蒸发器温度大于冷冻间室内的间室温度,既能够使得通过门封进入冷冻间室内的外界水汽、冷冻间室内的水分(例如食材挥发的水分)、冷冻蒸发器上的凝霜升华的水分等保持在冷冻间室内从而简单有效地提高冷冻间室内的湿度,又能够避免压缩机的运行频率一次性降低过多导致冷冻蒸发器的温升过高对冷冻间室的温度产生较大影响。
进一步地,本发明的控制方法根据经验预先设置了一个较低的预设频率,压缩机以 该预设频率运行时,冷冻蒸发器的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室内的间室温度。在冷藏冷冻装置达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机,而是先停止冷冻风机,并使压缩机以上述预设频率运行第二预设时长后再停止压缩机,此时,冷冻蒸发器的温度已经回升到至少高于冷冻间室的温度,然后再通过启动冷冻风机促使气流在冷冻蒸发器和冷冻间室之间循环流动,因此,通过门封进入冷冻间室内的外界水汽、冷冻间室内的水分(例如食材挥发的水分)、以及冷冻蒸发器上的凝霜升华形成的水分会在温度更低的冷冻间室内凝结而不是凝结在冷冻蒸发器处,由此,可有效地提高冷冻间室内的水分含量,提高冷冻间室内的湿度。本发明在冷藏冷冻装置停机之前先提高冷冻间室内的湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可在停机期间使冷冻间室内维持较高的湿度,提高了冷冻间室内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
并且,本发明根据经验预先设置一个较低的预设频率,使得加湿期间压缩机的运行频率恒定,只需要对压缩机以预设频率运行的时长进行监控,简化了控制逻辑。
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:

图9是根据本发明一个实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的示意性结构框图。
具体实施方式
本发明首先提供一种冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法,图1是根据本发明一个实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的示意性结构图,图2是根据本发明一个实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的压缩制冷系统的示意性结构框图。
参见图1和图2,本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1包括限定有冷冻间室11的箱体10、用于向冷冻间室11内驱动送风的冷冻风机31和包括压缩机21的压缩制冷系统20。进一步地,压缩制冷系统20还包括与压缩机21串联连接的冷凝器29、冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻节流装置23。冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻节流装置23形成冷冻支路。具体地,冷冻节流装置23可以为毛细管或节流阀等。
发明人认识到,在冷冻间室11制冷期间,冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度必然要低于冷冻间室11的间室温度,才具有对冷冻间室11进行降温的能力。而水汽通常会在温度更低的位置聚集、凝结。因此,在冷冻间室11制冷期间,冷冻间室11内的水分会在冷冻蒸发器22处凝结,冷冻间室11内的湿度必然降低。当冷冻间室11内的温度达到设定温度而停机时,冷冻间室11内的温度几乎达到最低,这将拉低冷冻间室11的平均湿度。虽然停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度会缓慢上升,然而湿度上升的速度较慢,冷冻间室11 内的食材仍然长时间处于湿度较低的环境中,保存品质不佳。
在上述认识的基础上,本发明特别提出了一种冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法,该控制方法包括:
当冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时,执行冷冻间室加湿操作以将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至符合预设条件后再停止压缩机21和冷冻风机31。
本发明的控制方法在冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机21,而是先执行冷冻间室加湿操作以将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至符合预设条件后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以提高了冷冻间室11内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室11内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
申请人进一步想到,如果冷冻间室11内的间室温度比冷冻蒸发器22处的蒸发器温度低,那么水汽就会聚集在冷冻间室内,利用这一原理可以有效地提高冷冻间室11内的湿度。
在上述认识的基础上,在一些进一步的实施例中,本发明特别提出了一种冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法,该控制方法包括:
当冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时,控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态,并控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22;
调节压缩机21的运行频率,直至冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度之间的温差值大于或等于预设最小温差,预设最小温差大于零;
停止压缩机21的运行,并启动冷冻风机31;
当冷冻风机31持续运行第一预设时长后停止冷冻风机31。
换言之,此实施例中,冷冻间室加湿操作具体包括控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态,并控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22,调节压缩机21的运行频率,直至冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度之间的温差值大于或等于预设最小温差,停止压缩机21的运行,启动冷冻风机31使其持续运行第一预设时长后停止冷冻风机31。预设条件由冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度之间的温差值和冷冻风机31持续运行的时长共同确定。
本发明的控制方法在冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机21,而是先停止冷冻风机31,以停止向冷冻间室11内吹送气流,并通过调节压缩机21的运行频率使得冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度,然后再停止压缩机21、启动冷冻风机31,通过冷冻风机31促使气流在冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻间室11之间循环流动。由于此时冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度,因此,通过门封进入冷冻间室11内的外界水汽、冷冻间室11内的水分(例如食材挥发的水分)、以及冷冻蒸发器22上的凝霜升华形成的水分会在温度更低的冷冻间室11内凝结而不是凝结在冷冻蒸发器22处,由此,可有效地提高冷冻间室11内的水分含量,提高冷冻间室11内的湿度。
本发明在冷藏冷冻装置1停机之前先提高冷冻间室11内的湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以提高了冷冻间室11内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室11内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
同时,只要冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度一定值,冷冻风机31运行时就能够对冷冻间室11起到加湿作用。因此,本发明对冷冻风机31的运行时间进行一定的限制,既能够有效地提高冷冻间室11内的湿度,又不会长时间地将经过冷冻蒸发器22后形成的温度稍高的气流吹送至冷冻间室11导致冷冻间室11温度回升明显。
本发明的控制方法在停机前调节冷冻间室11内的湿度,不需要在停机后再次启动压缩机21进行加湿操作,避免压缩机21启停频繁对其带来的损害。
并且,本发明在冷藏冷冻装置1原有结构的基础上通过对冷冻风机31的启停控制以 及对压缩机21的停机时间及运行频率的控制实现提高冷冻间室11内湿度的目的,不需要增加任何辅助结构,因此,不会对冷藏冷冻装置1的原有结构及储物能力产生任何影响,提高了实际应用的可行性。
图3是根据本发明一个具体实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法的示意性流程图,参见图3,本发明的控制方法包括:
步骤S10,判断冷藏冷冻装置1是否达到预设的自动关机条件;若是,则转步骤S20,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S20,控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态;
步骤S30,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22;
步骤S40,调节压缩机21的运行频率,直至冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度之间的温差值大于或等于预设最小温差,预设最小温差大于零;
步骤S50,停止压缩机21的运行,并启动冷冻风机31;
步骤S60,判断冷冻风机31持续运行的时间是否达到第一预设时长;若是,则转步骤S70,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S70,停止冷冻风机31。
在一些实施例中,箱体10内还限定有至少一个非冷冻间室,冷冻节流装置23的两端并联有用于分别为至少一个非冷冻间室提供冷量的至少一个非冷冻支路,压缩制冷系统20还包括用于导通冷冻节流装置23和至少一个非冷冻支路中的其中一个支路的切换阀24。
例如,至少一个非冷冻间室可包括冷藏间室12,至少一个非冷冻支路可包括用于为冷藏间室12提供冷量的冷藏支路,冷藏支路包括串联连接的冷藏蒸发器25和冷藏节流装置26,冷藏节流装置26可以为毛细管或节流阀等。至少一个非冷冻间室还可包括变温间室13,至少一个非冷冻支路还可包括用于为变温间室13提供冷量的变温支路,变温支路包括串联连接的变温蒸发器27和变温节流装置28,变温节流装置28可以为毛细管或节流阀等。
当箱体10内同时限定有冷冻间室11、冷藏间室12和变温间室13时,冷藏冷冻装置1通常按照冷藏间室制冷、变温间室制冷和冷冻间室制冷的顺序运行。即在冷冻间室制冷开始时,冷藏间室制冷和变温间室制冷通常已经执行完毕;也就是说,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1通常处于冷冻间室制冷状态。可以理解的是,在冷冻间室11制冷状态下,冷冻风机31处于运行状态,切换阀24处于导通冷冻节流装置23的状态,以使得制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22,从而实现为冷冻间室11制冷的目的。
在这些实施例中,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22的步骤S30具体可包括:
保持切换阀24的状态不变。
也就是说,达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1处于冷冻间室制冷状态,切换阀24已经处于导通冷冻节流装置23的状态,因此,在达到自动关机条件之后,切换阀24的状态不需要再改变。
在另一些实施例中,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1也可能处于非冷冻间室制冷状态,例如处于冷藏制冷状态或变温制冷状态。在非冷冻间室制冷状态下,冷冻风机31处于停止状态,不向冷冻间室11送风,切换阀24处于导通相应的非冷冻支路的状态,冷冻节流装置23没有制冷剂流过。
在这些实施例中,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22的步骤S30具体可包括:
将切换阀24切换至导通冷冻节流装置23的状态。
也就是说,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1处于非冷冻间室制冷状态时, 在达到自动关机条件之后,需要调节切换阀24的状态,使其处于导通冷冻节流装置23的状态,以便于调节冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度。
在一些实施例中,调节压缩机21的运行频率,直至冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度之间的温差值大于或等于预设最小温差的步骤S40具体可包括:
控制压缩机21以低于其在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率的频率运行;
获取冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度;
计算蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值;
若蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值小于预设最小温差,则降低压缩机21的运行频率,并返回继续获取冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度,直至蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值大于或等于预设最小温差。
也就是说,本发明通过获取冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度,监测蒸发器温度与间室温度的温差值,逐次地、缓慢地降低压缩机21的运行频率,以使得冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度大于冷冻间室11内的间室温度,既能够简单有效地提高冷冻间室11内的湿度,又能够避免压缩机21的运行频率一次性降低过多导致冷冻蒸发器22的温升过高对冷冻间室11的温度产生较大影响。
具体地,图4是根据本发明另一个具体实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法的示意性流程图,参见图4,本发明的控制方法包括:
步骤S10,判断冷藏冷冻装置1是否达到预设的自动关机条件;若是,则转步骤S20,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S20,控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态;
步骤S30,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22;
步骤S41,控制压缩机21以低于其在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率的频率运行;
步骤S42,获取冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度;
步骤S43,计算蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值;
步骤S44,判断蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值是否小于预设最小温差;若是,则转步骤S45,若否,则转步骤S50;
步骤S45,降低压缩机21的运行频率,并返回步骤S42;
步骤S50,停止压缩机21的运行,并启动冷冻风机31;
步骤S60,判断冷冻风机31持续运行的时间是否达到第一预设时长;若是,则转步骤S70,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S70,停止冷冻风机31。
在一些实施例中,压缩机21的运行频率每次降低的幅度均相同。也就是说,压缩机21的运行频率是均衡地降低的,控制较为简便。
具体地,每次可以2~20赫兹的幅度降低压缩机21的运行频率,以尽可能地找到能够提高冷冻间室11内的湿度且对冷冻间室11内的温度影响最小的压缩机21的运行频率。例如,压缩机21的运行频率每次降低2赫兹、4赫兹、6赫兹、8赫兹10赫兹、12赫兹、14赫兹、16赫兹、18赫兹或20赫兹等等。
在一些实施例中,上述预设最小温差可以为范围在2~4℃之间的任一温差值。例如,预设最小温差可以取值2℃、2.5℃、3℃、3.5℃或4℃。也就是说,当冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度比冷冻间室11内的间室温度高2~4℃时,不但能够在冷冻间室11内取得较好的加湿效果,而且还不会对冷冻间室11内的温度产生较大的影响。
在一些实施例中,第一预设时长可以为范围在3~10min之间的任一时长值。例如,第一预设时长可以为3min、4min、5min、6min、7min、8min、9min或10min。第一预设时长的值过小,即冷冻风机31运行的时间过短,冷冻间室11内的加湿效果不明显;第 一预设时长的值过大,即冷冻风机31运行的时间过长,会导致冷冻间室11内的温度明显回升。因此,本发明将第一预设时长设置成范围在3~10min之间的任一时长值,既能够对冷冻间室11有效加湿,又能够避免冷冻间室11内的温度产生较大波动。
在一些实施例中,上述自动关机条件为冷藏冷冻装置1的每个储物间室的温度均达到其各自的设定温度。
具体地,若冷藏冷冻装置1仅包括冷冻间室11,则自动关机条件为冷冻间室11达到冷冻设定温度。
具体地,若冷藏冷冻装置1除了包括冷冻间室11之外,还包括至少一个非冷冻间室,比如还包括冷藏间室12和变温间室13,则自动关机条件为冷藏间室12达到冷藏设定温度,变温间室13达到变温设定温度,冷冻间室11达到冷冻设定温度。
本发明还提供一种冷藏冷冻装置,图9是根据本发明一个实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的示意性结构框图。参见图1、图2和图9,本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1包括限定有冷冻间室11的箱体10、用于向冷冻间室11内驱动送风的冷冻风机31和具有压缩机21的压缩制冷系统20。
特别地,冷藏冷冻装置1还包括控制装置40,控制装置40包括处理器41和存储器42,存储器42内存储有机器可执行程序43,并且机器可执行程序43被处理器41执行时用于实现上述任一实施例所描述的控制方法。
具体地,压缩机21和冷冻风机31均与控制装置40相连,以在控制装置40的控制下运行。
具体地,处理器41可以是一个中央处理单元(central processing unit,简称CPU),或者为数字处理单元等等。处理器41通过通信接口收发数据。存储器44用于存储处理器41执行的程序。存储器44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,也可以是多个存储器的组合。上述机器可执行程序43可以从计算机可读存储介质下载到相应计算/处理设备或者经由网络(例如因特网、局域网、广域网和/或无线网络)下载到计算机或外部存储设备。
本发明在冷藏冷冻装置1停机之前先提高冷冻间室11内的湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以提高了冷冻间室11内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室11内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
并且,本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1对冷冻风机31的运行时间进行一定的限制,既能够有效地提高冷冻间室11内的湿度,又不会长时间地将经过冷冻蒸发器22后形成的温度稍高的气流吹送至冷冻间室11导致冷冻间室11温度回升明显。
同时,本发明的控制方法在停机前调节冷冻间室11内的湿度,不需要在停机后再次启动压缩机21进行加湿操作,避免压缩机21启停频繁对其带来的损害。
在另一些进一步的实施例中,本发明特别提出了一种冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法,该控制方法包括:
当冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时,获取冷冻间室11内的湿度;
若冷冻间室11内的湿度高于或等于预设最高湿度,则控制压缩机21和冷冻风机31停止运行;也就是说,当冷冻间室11内的湿度高于或等于预设最高湿度时,直接停机;
若冷冻间室11内的湿度低于预设最高湿度,则将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度后再控制压缩机21和冷冻风机31停止运行。
换言之,此实施例中,冷冻间室加湿操作具体包括获取冷冻间室11内的湿度,根据冷冻间室11内的湿度对冷冻间室11进行加湿以将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度。预设条件为冷冻间室11内的湿度高于或等于预设最高湿度。
本发明的控制方法在冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机21和冷冻风机31,而是将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高到预设最高湿度后再停止压缩机21和冷冻风机31。也就是说,在冷藏冷冻装置1停机之前先将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高到 预设最高湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以在停机期间使得冷冻间室11内的湿度维持在预设最高湿度的较高水平,避免了停机后冷冻间室11内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
本发明的控制方法在停机前调节冷冻间室11内的湿度,不需要在停机后再次启动压缩机21进行加湿操作,避免压缩机21启停频繁对其带来的损害。
并且,本发明在冷藏冷冻装置1原有结构的基础上通过对压缩机21的停机时间及运行频率的控制实现提高冷冻间室11内湿度的目的,不需要增加任何辅助结构,因此,不会对冷藏冷冻装置1的原有结构及储物能力产生任何影响,提高了实际应用的可行性。
图5是根据本发明一个具体实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法的示意性流程图,参见图5,本发明的控制方法包括:
步骤S10’,判断冷藏冷冻装置1是否达到预设的自动关机条件;若是,则转步骤S20’,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S20’,获取冷冻间室11内的湿度;
步骤S30’,判断冷冻间室11内的湿度是否低于预设最高湿度,若是,则转步骤S40’,若否,则转步骤S50’;
步骤S40’,将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度;
步骤S50’,控制压缩机21和冷冻风机31停止运行。
在一些实施例中,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1处于冷冻间室制冷状态;在冷冻间室11制冷状态下,冷冻风机31处于运行状态,制冷剂流经冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻节流装置23。
具体地,若冷藏冷冻装置1仅包括冷冻间室11,则在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1必然处于冷冻间室制冷状态。
若冷藏冷冻装置1除了包括冷冻间室11之外,还包括至少一个非冷冻间室,比如还包括冷藏间室和变温间室,则冷藏冷冻装置1通常按照冷藏间室制冷、变温间室制冷和冷冻间室制冷的顺序运行。即在冷冻间室制冷开始时,冷藏间室制冷和变温间室制冷通常已经执行完毕;也就是说,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1通常处于冷冻间室制冷状态。
在这些实施例中,将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度的步骤S40’具体可包括:
保持冷冻风机31处于运行状态,并控制压缩机21以低于其在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率的频率运行,以使得冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度。
冷冻风机31运行,可促使气流在冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻间室11之间循环流动,由于冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度,因此,通过门封进入冷冻间室11内的外界水汽、冷冻间室11内的水分(例如食材挥发的水分)、以及冷冻蒸发器22上的凝霜升华形成的水分会在温度更低的冷冻间室11内凝结而不是凝结在冷冻蒸发器22处,由此,可有效地提高冷冻间室11内的水分含量,从而将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度。
在一些实施例中,箱体10内还限定有至少一个非冷冻间室,压缩制冷系统20还包括与压缩机21串联连接的冷冻支路,冷冻支路包括冷冻蒸发器21和冷冻节流装置23,冷冻节流装置23的两端并联有用于分别为至少一个非冷冻间室提供冷量的至少一个非冷冻支路,压缩制冷系统20还包括用于导通冷冻节流装置23和至少一个非冷冻支路中的其中一个支路的切换阀24。
具体地,至少一个非冷冻间室可包括冷藏间室12,至少一个非冷冻支路可包括用于为冷藏间室12提供冷量的冷藏支路,冷藏支路包括串联连接的冷藏蒸发器25和冷藏节流装置26,冷藏节流装置26可以为毛细管或节流阀等。至少一个非冷冻间室还可包括变 温间室13,至少一个非冷冻支路还可包括用于为变温间室13提供冷量的变温支路,变温支路包括串联连接的变温蒸发器27和变温节流装置28,变温节流装置28可以为毛细管或节流阀等。
在这些实施例中,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1可处于非冷冻间室制冷状态;在非冷冻间室制冷状态下,冷冻风机31处于停止状态;制冷剂流过与该非冷冻间室对应的非冷冻支路。
进一步地,参见图6所示的根据本发明一个实施例的将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度的示意性流程图,将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度的步骤S40’具体可包括:
步骤S41’,控制切换阀24切换至导通冷冻节流装置23的状态;
步骤S42’,启动冷冻风机31;
步骤S43’,控制压缩机21以低于其在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率的频率运行,以使得冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度。
同样地,冷冻风机31运行,可促使气流在冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻间室11之间循环流动,由于冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度,因此,通过门封进入冷冻间室11内的外界水汽、冷冻间室11内的水分(例如食材挥发的水分)、以及冷冻蒸发器22上的凝霜升华形成的水分会在温度更低的冷冻间室11内凝结而不是凝结在冷冻蒸发器22处,由此,可有效地提高冷冻间室11内的水分含量,从而将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至预设最高湿度。
图7是根据本发明另一个实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法的示意性流程图。在一些实施例中,控制压缩机21以低于其在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率的频率运行,以使得冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度的步骤具体可包括:
步骤S431’,控制压缩机21以低于其在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率的频率运行;
步骤S432’,获取冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度;
步骤S433’,计算蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值;
步骤S434’,判断蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值是否小于预设最小温差;若是,则转步骤S435’,若否,则转步骤S436’;
步骤S435’,降低压缩机21的运行频率,并返回步骤S432’;
步骤S436’,保持压缩机21的运行频率不变,并返回步骤S20’。
其中,上述预设最小温差大于零。也即是,需确保蒸发器温度与间室温度之间的温差值为正值,即确保冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度大于冷冻间室11内的间室温度。
本发明通过获取冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度和冷冻间室11内的间室温度,监测蒸发器温度与间室温度的温差值,逐次地、缓慢地降低压缩机21的运行频率,以使得冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度大于冷冻间室11内的间室温度,既能够使得水分等保持在冷冻间室内从而提高冷冻间室内的湿度,又能够避免压缩机21的运行频率一次性降低过多导致冷冻蒸发器的22温升过高对冷冻间室11的温度产生较大影响。
在一些实施例中,上述预设最小温差可以为范围在2~4℃之间的任一温差值。例如,预设最小温差可以取值2℃、2.5℃、3℃、3.5℃或4℃。也就是说,当冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度比冷冻间室11内的间室温度高2~4℃时,不但能够在冷冻间室11内取得较好的加湿效果,而且还不会对冷冻间室11内的温度产生较大的影响。
在一些实施例中,压缩机21的运行频率每次降低的幅度均相同。也就是说,压缩机21的运行频率是均衡地降低的,控制较为简便。
具体地,每次可以2~20赫兹的幅度降低压缩机21的运行频率,以尽可能地找到能够提高冷冻间室11内的湿度且对冷冻间室11内的温度影响最小的压缩机21的运行频率。例如,压缩机21的运行频率每次降低2赫兹、4赫兹、6赫兹、8赫兹10赫兹、12赫兹、 14赫兹、16赫兹、18赫兹或20赫兹等等。
在一些实施例中,上述预设最高湿度可以为范围在80%~100%之间的任一相对湿度值。例如,预设最高湿度可以取值为80%、81%、82%、83%、84%、85%、86%、87%、88%、89%、90%、91%、92%、93%、94%、95%、96%、97%、98%、98%或100%。也就是说,在停机之前,需要将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高至80%以上的较高水平再停机,以确保冷冻间室11内的湿度在停机期间稳定地维持在较高的水平。
在一些实施例中,上述自动关机条件为冷藏冷冻装置1的每个储物间室的温度均达到其各自的设定温度。
具体地,若冷藏冷冻装置1仅包括冷冻间室11,则自动关机条件为冷冻间室11达到冷冻设定温度。
具体地,若冷藏冷冻装置1除了包括冷冻间室11之外,还包括至少一个非冷冻间室,比如还包括冷藏间室12和变温间室13,则自动关机条件为冷藏间室12达到冷藏设定温度,变温间室13达到变温设定温度,冷冻间室11达到冷冻设定温度。
本发明还提供一种冷藏冷冻装置。参见图1、图2和图9,本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1包括限定有冷冻间室11的箱体10、用于向冷冻间室11内驱动送风的冷冻风机31和具有压缩机21的压缩制冷系统20。
特别地,冷藏冷冻装置1还包括控制装置40,控制装置40包括处理器41和存储器42,存储器42内存储有机器可执行程序43,并且机器可执行程序43被处理器41执行时用于实现上述任一实施例所描述的控制方法。
具体地,压缩机21和冷冻风机31均与控制装置40相连,以在控制装置40的控制下运行。
本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1在达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机21和冷冻风机31,而是将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高到预设最高湿度后再停止压缩机21和冷冻风机31。也就是说,在冷藏冷冻装置1停机之前先将冷冻间室11内的湿度提高到预设最高湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可以在停机期间使得冷冻间室11内的湿度维持在预设最高湿度的较高水平,避免了停机后冷冻间室11内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1在停机前调节冷冻间室11内的湿度,不需要在停机后再次启动压缩机21进行加湿操作,避免压缩机21启停频繁对其带来的损害。
并且,本发明在冷藏冷冻装置1原有结构的基础上通过对压缩机21的停机时间及运行频率的控制实现提高冷冻间室11内湿度的目的,不需要增加任何辅助结构,因此,不会对冷藏冷冻装置1的原有结构及储物能力产生任何影响,提高了实际应用的可行性。
申请人还进一步想到,如果将压缩机21的运行频率降低至低于压缩机21在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率的某一较低频率时,冷冻蒸发器22的温度会升高至高于冷冻间室11的温度,那么水汽就会聚集在冷冻间室11内,利用这一原理可以有效地对冷冻间室11进行保湿或提高冷冻间室11内的湿度。
在上述认识的基础上,在另一些进一步的实施例中,本发明特别提出了一种冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法,该控制方法包括:
当冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时,控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22,并控制压缩机21以预设频率运行。其中,该预设频率设置成使得冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度;
当压缩机21以预设频率运行的时长达到第二预设时长后,停止压缩机21的运行,并启动冷冻风机31;
当冷冻风机31持续运行第一预设时长后停止冷冻风机31。
本发明的控制方法根据经验预先设置了一个较低的预设频率,压缩机21以该预设频率运行时,冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度。在冷藏冷冻装 置1达到预设的自动关机条件时不立即停止压缩机21,而是先停止冷冻风机31,并使压缩机21以上述预设频率运行第二预设时长后再停止压缩机21。此时,冷冻蒸发器22的温度已经回升到至少高于冷冻间室11的温度,然后再通过启动冷冻风机31促使气流在冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻间室11之间循环流动,因此,通过门封进入冷冻间室11内的外界水汽、冷冻间室11内的水分(例如食材挥发的水分)、以及冷冻蒸发器22上的凝霜升华形成的水分会在温度更低的冷冻间室内凝结而不是凝结在冷冻蒸发器处,由此,可有效地提高冷冻间室11内的水分含量,提高冷冻间室11内的湿度。
本发明在冷藏冷冻装置1停机之前先提高冷冻间室11内的湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可在停机期间使冷冻间室11内维持较高的湿度,提高了冷冻间室11内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室11内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
并且,本发明根据经验预先设置一个较低的预设频率,使得加湿期间压缩机的运行频率恒定,只需要对压缩机21以预设频率运行的时长进行监控,简化了控制逻辑。
同时,只要冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度一定值,冷冻风机31运行时就能够对冷冻间室11起到加湿作用。因此,本发明在压缩机21以预设频率运行第二预设时长后,启动冷冻风机31并对冷冻风机31的运行时间进行一定的限制,既能够有效地提高冷冻间室11内的湿度,又不会长时间地将经过冷冻蒸发器22后形成的温度稍高的气流吹送至冷冻间室11导致冷冻间室11温度回升明显。
本发明的控制方法在停机前调节冷冻间室11内的湿度,不需要在停机后再次启动压缩机21进行加湿操作,避免压缩机21启停频繁对其带来的损害。
本发明在冷藏冷冻装置1原有结构的基础上通过对冷冻风机31和压缩机21的运行时长进行控制实现提高冷冻间室11内湿度的目的,不需要增加任何辅助结构,因此,不会对冷藏冷冻装置1的原有结构及储物能力产生任何影响,提高了实际应用的可行性。
图8是根据本发明又一个具体实施例的冷藏冷冻装置的控制方法的示意性流程图,参见图8,本发明的控制方法包括:
步骤S10”,判断冷藏冷冻装置1是否达到预设的自动关机条件;若是,则转步骤S20”,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S20”,控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22,并控制压缩机21以预设频率运行;
步骤S30”,判断压缩机21以预设频率运行的时间是否达到第二预设时长;若是,则转步骤S40”,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S40”,停止压缩机21的运行,并启动冷冻风机31;
步骤S50”,判断冷冻风机31持续运行的时间是否达到第一预设时长;若是,则转步骤S60”,若否,则返回继续判断;
步骤S60”,停止冷冻风机31。
在一些实施例中,上述预设频率比压缩机21在冷冻间室制冷状态时的第一设定频率低20~90赫兹。例如,上述预设频率可比第一设定频率低20赫兹、30赫兹、40赫兹、50赫兹、60赫兹、70赫兹、80赫兹或90赫兹。
具体地,当冷藏冷冻装置1处于冷冻间室制冷状态时,压缩机21以第一设定频率运行。当冷藏冷冻装置1达到自动关机条件时,压缩机21以低于第一预设频率20~90赫兹的预设频率运行,可确保冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11的间室温度。
可以理解的是,预设频率的取值不易过低,也不易过高。预设频率的取值过低,冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度过高,当冷冻风机31运行时,将温度较高的气流吹向冷冻间室11导致冷冻间室11的温度明显回升,影响食材的保存效果。预设频率的取值过高,冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度过低,不能够确保蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11的温度,就不能有效地对冷冻间室11进行加湿。
在一些实施例中,第二预设时长可以为范围在1~10min之间的任一时长值。例如,第一预设时长可以为1min、2min、3min、4min、5min、6min、7min、8min、9min或10min。
压缩机21以预设频率运行1~10min,可以确保冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度升高至高于冷冻间室11的温度,从而在冷冻风机31启动运行时有效地对冷冻间室11进行加湿。若压缩机21以预设频率运行的时长过短,冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度可能还未升上来,若压缩机21以预设频率运行的时长过长,则会浪费能耗。
在一些实施例中,箱体10内还限定有至少一个非冷冻间室,冷冻节流装置23的两端并联有用于分别为至少一个非冷冻间室提供冷量的至少一个非冷冻支路,压缩制冷系统20还包括用于导通冷冻节流装置23和至少一个非冷冻支路中的其中一个支路的切换阀24。
例如,至少一个非冷冻间室可包括冷藏间室12,至少一个非冷冻支路可包括用于为冷藏间室12提供冷量的冷藏支路,冷藏支路包括串联连接的冷藏蒸发器25和冷藏节流装置26,冷藏节流装置26可以为毛细管或节流阀等。至少一个非冷冻间室还可包括变温间室13,至少一个非冷冻支路还可包括用于为变温间室13提供冷量的变温支路,变温支路包括串联连接的变温蒸发器27和变温节流装置28,变温节流装置28可以为毛细管或节流阀等。
当箱体10内同时限定有冷冻间室11、冷藏间室12和变温间室13时,冷藏冷冻装置1通常按照冷藏间室制冷、变温间室制冷和冷冻间室制冷的顺序运行。即在冷冻间室制冷开始时,冷藏间室制冷和变温间室制冷通常已经执行完毕;也就是说,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1通常处于冷冻间室制冷状态。可以理解的是,在冷冻间室11制冷状态下,冷冻风机31处于运行状态,切换阀24处于导通冷冻节流装置23的状态,以使得制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22,从而实现为冷冻间室11制冷的目的。
在这些实施例中,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22的步骤S20”具体可包括:
保持切换阀24的状态不变。
控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态的步骤包括:
停止冷冻风机31。
也就是说,达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1处于冷冻间室制冷状态,切换阀24已经处于导通冷冻节流装置23的状态,冷冻风机31处于运行状态。因此,在达到自动关机条件之后,切换阀24的状态不需要再改变,只需要停止冷冻风机31即可。
在另一些实施例中,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1也可能处于非冷冻间室制冷状态,例如处于冷藏制冷状态或变温制冷状态。在非冷冻间室制冷状态下,冷冻风机31处于停止状态,不向冷冻间室11送风,切换阀24处于导通相应的非冷冻支路的状态,冷冻节流装置23没有制冷剂流过。
在这些实施例中,控制制冷剂流经冷冻节流装置23和冷冻蒸发器22的步骤S20”具体可包括:
将切换阀24切换至导通冷冻节流装置23的状态。
控制冷冻风机31处于停止状态的步骤包括:
保持冷冻风机31的停止状态不变。
也就是说,在达到自动关机条件之前,冷藏冷冻装置1处于非冷冻间室制冷状态时,冷冻风机31已经处于停止状态,切换阀24导通的是非冷冻支路。因此,在达到自动关机条件之后,不需要改变冷冻风机31的状态,只需要调节切换阀24的状态,使其处于导通冷冻节流装置23的状态,以便于调节冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度。
在一些实施例中,第一预设时长可以为范围在3~10min之间的任一时长值。例如,第二预设时长可以为3min、4min、5min、6min、7min、8min、9min或10min。第一预设 时长的值过小,即冷冻风机31运行的时间过短,冷冻间室11内的加湿效果不明显;第一预设时长的值过大,即冷冻风机31运行的时间过长,会导致冷冻间室11内的温度明显回升。因此,本发明将第一预设时长设置成范围在3~10min之间的任一时长值,既能够对冷冻间室11有效加湿,又能够避免冷冻间室11内的温度产生较大波动。
在一些实施例中,上述自动关机条件为冷藏冷冻装置1的每个储物间室的温度均达到其各自的设定温度。
具体地,若冷藏冷冻装置1仅包括冷冻间室11,则自动关机条件为冷冻间室11达到冷冻设定温度。
具体地,若冷藏冷冻装置1除了包括冷冻间室11之外,还包括至少一个非冷冻间室,比如还包括冷藏间室12和变温间室13,则自动关机条件为冷藏间室12达到冷藏设定温度,变温间室13达到变温设定温度,冷冻间室11达到冷冻设定温度。
本发明还提供一种冷藏冷冻装置,。参见图1、图2和图9,本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1包括限定有冷冻间室11的箱体10、用于向冷冻间室11内驱动送风的冷冻风机31和压缩制冷系统20。压缩制冷系统20包括压缩机21、与压缩机21串联连接的冷冻蒸发器22和冷冻节流装置23。
特别地,冷藏冷冻装置1还包括控制装置40,控制装置40包括处理器41和存储器42,存储器42内存储有机器可执行程序43,并且机器可执行程序43被处理器41执行时用于实现上述任一实施例所描述的控制方法。
具体地,压缩机21和冷冻风机31均与控制装置40相连,以在控制装置40的控制下运行。
本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1在停机之前先提高冷冻间室11内的湿度后再停机。停机后,冷冻间室11内的湿度不再下降,甚至缓慢上升,由此,可在停机期间使冷冻间室11内维持较高的湿度,提高了冷冻间室11内的平均湿度,避免了冷冻间室11内的湿度较低而影响食材保存效果。
并且,本发明根据经验预先设置一个较低的预设频率,使得加湿期间压缩机的运行频率恒定,只需要对压缩机21以预设频率运行的时长进行监控,简化了控制逻辑。
同时,只要冷冻蒸发器22的蒸发器温度高于冷冻间室11内的间室温度一定值,冷冻风机31运行时就能够对冷冻间室11起到加湿作用。因此,本发明在压缩机21以预设频率运行第二预设时长后,启动冷冻风机31并对冷冻风机31的运行时间进行一定的限制,既能够有效地提高冷冻间室11内的湿度,又不会长时间地将经过冷冻蒸发器22后形成的温度稍高的气流吹送至冷冻间室11导致冷冻间室11温度回升明显。
本发明的控制方法在停机前调节冷冻间室11内的湿度,不需要在停机后再次启动压缩机21进行加湿操作,避免压缩机21启停频繁对其带来的损害。
在一些实施例中,箱体10内还限定有至少一个非冷冻间室,冷冻节流装置23的两端并联有用于分别为至少一个非冷冻间室提供冷量的至少一个非冷冻支路,压缩制冷系统20还包括用于导通冷冻节流装置23和至少一个非冷冻支路中的其中一个支路的切换阀24。切换阀24配置成在冷藏冷冻装置1达到预设的自动关机条件时受控地保持或切换至导通冷冻节流装置23的状态。
本领域技术人员应理解,本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1也可以不限制为图1所示的三开门冰箱,其还可以为单开门冰箱、双开门冰箱或其他具有冷冻间室的冰箱。
本领域技术人员还应理解,本发明的冷藏冷冻装置1不但包括冰箱,而且还包括冷柜、冰柜或其他至少具有冷冻功能的冷藏冷冻装置。
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。
