Specifically, the elevator 10 includes an outer shell and an inner shell, and a cavity is formed in the inner shell. Elevator 10 There is also a car door on one side, which can be opened or closed to facilitate passengers to enter and exit the elevator 10. The elevator 10 is also provided with an air conditioner 100, an air duct 200 and a plurality of air supply outlets 300. The air conditioner 100 includes an external air conditioner unit and an internal air conditioner unit. The external air conditioner unit and the internal air conditioner unit are connected through a refrigerant pipeline, thereby allowing the refrigerant to circulate in the elevator. There is flow between the heat exchanger in the outer unit of the air conditioner and the heat exchanger in the inner unit of the air conditioner. The air inlet of the internal unit of the air conditioner is connected with the cavity, so that the air in the cavity can be sucked into the internal unit of the air conditioner; the air outlet of the internal unit of the air conditioner is connected with the air supply port 300 through the air duct 200, and the air supply port 300 is arranged on the side of the inner shell.

In the application scenario shown in Figure 1, the control device 20 can interact with the elevator 10 to implement the elevator disinfection method of this embodiment. details as follows:

Figure 2 is a flow chart of an elevator disinfection method provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2, the method includes:

Step S110: Obtain the continuous running time of the elevator.

For example, the continuous running time of the elevator may be the running time after the elevator was first started or the running time since the last disinfection recorded in the control device of the elevator. When the elevator is running, the air conditioner in the elevator can work in cooling, heating, dehumidification or air supply modes, thereby improving passenger comfort.

Step S120: Compare the continuous running time of the elevator with the preset time.

For example, after obtaining the continuous running time of the elevator, the control device that is communicatively connected to the elevator can compare the continuous running time of the elevator with the preset time. Among them, the preset time can be set according to the actual needs of the user. For example, the preset time can be 4-8 hours.

If the continuous running time of the elevator is greater than or equal to the preset time, step S131 is executed: the elevator continues to run. Then continue to execute step S110: obtain the continuous running time of the elevator and step S120: compare the continuous running time of the elevator with the preset time, until the continuous running time of the elevator is greater than or equal to the preset time, execute step S132: detect the inside of the elevator Whether there are occupants or items.

For example, in this embodiment, the way to detect whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator may be to detect the pressure value on the floor of the elevator, and then determine whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator. Or, it can be determined whether there are passengers in the elevator by acquiring the image in the elevator and then comparing the image with the preset image of the elevator pre-stored in the control device (the image when there are no passengers or objects in the elevator). or objects; alternatively, the infrared image in the elevator can also be obtained through infrared scanning, and based on the infrared image, it can be determined whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator.

If there are passengers or objects in the elevator, step S141 is executed: the elevator continues to run. Then continue to execute step S132: detect whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator. After there are no passengers or objects in the elevator, step S142 is executed: sending a control instruction to the elevator. The control instruction is used to instruct the elevator to stop running and instruct the elevator to enter the disinfection mode.

For example, the control instructions include a stop command. After the control device sends a stop command to the elevator, the elevator can stop at a certain floor (such as the bottom floor), thereby facilitating the disinfection operation.

The control instructions also include disinfection instructions and ventilation instructions; the disinfection instructions are used to instruct the disinfection device to disinfect; the ventilation instructions are used to instruct the ventilation device to ventilate.

For example, in this embodiment, the time for disinfection and ventilation can be set as needed; for example, it can be 0.5-1 hour. The disinfection device of this embodiment is arranged in the air duct close to the air supply outlet. Disinfection devices include ultraviolet emitting devices and/or vibrating devices. A cross-flow fan can also be installed in the air duct. The cross-flow fan can change the flow direction of the air in the air duct, thereby accelerating the air flow out from the air supply outlet. When the disinfection device is an ultraviolet emitting device, the ultraviolet emitting device can be arranged on the side of the cross-flow fan away from the air supply outlet, and the light emitted by the ultraviolet emitting device shines toward the air supply outlet, thereby disinfecting the air sent into the elevator. When the disinfection device is a vibrating device, the vibrating device is equipped with liquid medicine, and the surface of the vibration device is provided with a liquid medicine outlet. The liquid outlet is located between the cross-flow fan and the air supply port. When the vibration device is working, it can atomize the liquid medicine into ultra-fine particles through high-frequency vibration, and make the atomized medicine liquid particles flow out from the medicine liquid outlet. The cross-flow fan can blow the medicine liquid particles into the elevator, thereby Disinfect the air in the elevator.

In the above preferred technical solution, when the disinfection device is a vibration device and the ventilation device is an air conditioner; after instructing the elevator to enter the disinfection mode, the method further includes:

Send a dehumidification command to the air conditioner. The dehumidification command is used to instruct the air conditioner to dehumidify.

For example, when a vibration device is used for disinfection, since the air humidity in the elevator is relatively high, the control device can send a dehumidification command to the air conditioner. After receiving the dehumidification command, the air conditioner can work in the dehumidification mode, thereby reducing the humidity in the elevator. Air humidity improves passenger comfort experience. Optionally, the working time of the air conditioner in the dehumidification mode can be set according to specific needs, for example, it can be 0.25-0.5 hours.

Figure 3 is a flow chart of an elevator disinfection method provided by another embodiment of the present application. Please refer to Figure 3. In a possible implementation, in this embodiment, detecting whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator includes:

Step S1321: Obtain the pressure on the floor of the elevator.

For example, in this embodiment, the pressure value experienced by the floor of the elevator can be measured by a pressure sensor disposed below the floor of the elevator. Preferably, pressure sensors are arranged at four corners below the floor of the elevator, and the pressure received by the floor of the elevator can be determined based on the average pressure measured by the four pressure sensors.

Step S1322: Based on the pressure value on the floor of the elevator, determine whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator.

For example, in this embodiment, the control device may pre-store the pressure reference value experienced by the floor of the elevator (that is, the pressure value measured by the pressure sensor when there are no passengers or objects in the elevator). By comparing the pressure on the floor of the elevator with the pressure reference value, if the pressure on the floor of the elevator is greater than the pressure reference value, it is determined that there are passengers or objects in the elevator; if the pressure on the ground of the elevator is equal to the pressure reference value , then it is determined that there are no passengers or objects in the elevator.

In this embodiment, the pressure reference value can fluctuate up and down within a certain range, which is beneficial to improving detection accuracy.

Figure 4 is a flow chart of an elevator disinfection method provided by yet another embodiment of the present application. Please refer to Figure 4. In another possible implementation, detecting whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator includes:

Step S1323: Obtain the image information in the elevator.

For example, the image information in the elevator can be captured by a camera device installed in the elevator. The imaging device may be a video camera or camera installed in the elevator.

Step S1324: Based on the comparison result between the image information in the elevator and the preset image information of the elevator, determine whether there are passengers or objects in the elevator.

For example, in this embodiment, the control device may pre-store the preset image information of the elevator (that is, the image information in the elevator when there are no passengers or objects in the elevator). By comparing the image information in the elevator with the preset image information of the elevator, if the two do not match, it is determined that It is determined that there are passengers or objects in the elevator; if the two match, it is determined that there are no passengers or objects in the elevator.

Furthermore, if there are no passengers or objects in the elevator, the method in this embodiment also includes:

For example, the warning information can be presented through voice, flashing lights, screen display, etc. The above alarm information can be output at each landing of the elevator so that passengers can understand the current status of the elevator.
