as shown in fig. 3 and 9, the first control method is that the air conditioner is in a continuous heating mode, and the control method includes:
step S1: acquiring an operation mode of an air conditioner;
step S21: when the air conditioner is in a continuous heating mode, controlling the third heat exchanger 23 to be a condenser, and controlling the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 22 to be evaporators;
step S31: the first fan 11 is controlled to rotate in reverse, and the second fan 12 is controlled to rotate in reverse.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 10, the step S31 "controlling the first fan 11 to rotate reversely, and controlling the second fan 12 to rotate reversely" further includes:
step S311: the speed of the first fan 11 is controlled to rotate reversely at V1, the speed of the second fan 12 is controlled to rotate reversely at V2, and V1 is controlled to < V2.
As shown in fig. 6, the operation principle of the air conditioner in the continuous heating mode is that when the air conditioner is in the continuous heating mode, the compressor 4 is controlled to start, the first four-way valve 62, the second four-way valve 63 are controlled to be connected as shown in the figure, at this time, high-pressure gas in the compressor 4 is high-pressure gas, the high-pressure gas in the compressor 4 firstly passes through the oil separator 5, then a part of the high-pressure gas passes through the third four-way valve 63 and then enters the room through the gas pipeline 10, after heat release in the room, the high-pressure gas is changed into liquid, the liquid passes through the liquid pipeline 101 and the cooler 9 and flows through a, the other part of the high-pressure gas from the compressor 4 passes through the third heat exchanger 23 and the third expansion valve 73 and flows through a through the second four-way valve 62, at this time, the high-pressure gas discharged from the two parts of the compressor 4 is heat exchange and then merged at a point, and passes through the first expansion valve 71 and the first heat exchanger 21, The second expansion valve 72 and the second heat exchanger 22 exchange heat with the outside, and then pass through the gas-liquid separator 8 via the first four-way valve 61, and finally return to the compressor 4.
The control can lead the temperature of the refrigerant flowing through the indoor from the compressor 4 to be increased after being merged with the refrigerant flowing through the third heat exchanger 23 from the compressor 4, thereby reducing the possibility of frosting on the surfaces of the first heat exchanger 21, the second heat exchanger 22 and the third heat exchanger 23, because the third heat exchanger 23 is equivalent to a condenser, the heat exchange between the third heat exchanger 23 and the outdoor is heat release, the hot air passing through the third heat exchanger 23 firstly exchanges heat with the first heat exchanger 21, then the second fan 12 reversely blows the wind after heat exchange downwards until exchanging heat with the second heat exchanger 22, the arrangement of the reverse rotation of the first fan 11 and the reverse rotation of the second fan 12 can lead the air after heat exchange to be discharged from the side edge of the second heat exchanger 22, thereby increasing the heat exchange effect, the heat exchange between the outdoor cold air and the first heat exchanger 21 is reduced by the low-speed reverse rotation of the first fan 11, thereby ensuring the heat exchange effect of the first heat exchanger 21, the second fan 12 rotates reversely at a high speed to bring the air exhausted after the heat exchange between the third heat exchanger 23 and the first heat exchanger 21 to the surface of the second heat exchanger 22 to exchange heat with the second heat exchanger 22 and is exhausted from the air inlet on the side edge of the second heat exchanger 22, the arrangement mode can improve the temperature of the air around the heat exchanger 2, and the frosting on the surface of the air due to the low surrounding temperature after the heat exchange of the heat exchanger 2 is prevented.
The second control method is that the air conditioner is in a normal heating mode, as shown in fig. 4 and 10, the control method includes:
step S22: when the air conditioner is in a normal heating mode, controlling the first heat exchanger 21, the second heat exchanger 22 and the third heat exchanger 23 as evaporators;
step S32: the first fan 11 is controlled to rotate forward, and the second fan 12 is controlled to rotate forward.

the speed of the first fan is controlled to be V3, the speed of the second fan is controlled to be V4, and V3 is controlled to be not less than V4.
As shown in fig. 7, the operation principle of the air conditioner in the conventional heating mode is as follows, when the air conditioner is in the conventional heating mode, the compressor 4 is controlled to start, the first four-way valve 61, the second four-way valve 62 and the third four-way valve 63 are controlled to be connected as shown in the figure, at this time, high-pressure gas is in the compressor 4, the high-pressure gas in the compressor 4 firstly passes through the oil separator 5, then passes through the third four-way valve 63, then enters the room through the gas pipeline 10, after releasing heat in the room, the high-pressure gas is changed into liquid, passes through the liquid pipeline 101 and the subcooler 9, flows through a, passes through the first heat exchanger 21, the second heat exchanger 22 and the third heat exchanger 23, exchanges heat with the outside, then passes through the first four-way valve 61 and the second four-way valve 62 together, and finally returns to the compressor 4 through the gas-liquid separator 8.
The speed of the second fan 12 is less than or equal to the speed of the first fan 11, which is favorable for the wind to be discharged from the top-side wind outlet, because the wind discharged from the first fan 11 includes the wind delivered by the second fan 12 to the first heat exchange channel 211 and the wind entering the first heat exchange channel 211 from the side wind inlet of the first heat exchanger 21, and in order to better discharge the wind, the speed V3 of the first fan 11 is greater than or equal to the speed V4 of the second fan 12. It should be noted that, although the name is a conventional heating mode, due to the linkage of the two fans, the overall air supply mode is still greatly different from the prior art, and the air supply mode can make the air path flow more smoothly and the heat exchange effect better on the basis of the structure of the invention, and the other modes mentioned below are the same.
The third control method is that the air conditioner is in a normal cooling mode, as shown in fig. 4 and 10, the control method includes:
step S23: when the air conditioner is in a normal refrigeration mode, controlling the first heat exchanger 21, the second heat exchanger 22 and the third heat exchanger 23 to be condensers;
step S33: the first fan 11 is controlled to rotate forward, and the second fan 12 is controlled to rotate forward.
As shown in fig. 8, the operation principle of the air conditioner in the normal cooling mode is as follows, when the air conditioner is in the normal cooling mode, the compressor 4 is controlled to start, the first four-way valve 61, the second four-way valve 62 and the third four-way valve 63 are controlled to be connected as shown in the figure, at this time, high-pressure gas in the compressor 4 is high-pressure gas, the high-pressure gas in the compressor 4 firstly passes through the oil separator 5, then passes through the first four-way valve 61, the second four-way valve 62, then passes through the first heat exchanger 21, the first expansion valve 71, the second heat exchanger 22, the second expansion valve 72, the third heat exchanger 23 and the third expansion valve 73, then enters the liquid pipeline 101, passes through the liquid pipeline 101, then enters the indoor heat absorption into gas, and the gas passes through the gas pipeline 10 and the third four-way valve 63, then passes through the gas-liquid separator 8, and finally returns to the compressor 4.
As shown in fig. 3 and 10, the fourth control method is that the air conditioner is in a forced cooling mode, and includes:
step S24: when the air conditioner is in a forced cooling mode, controlling one or more of the first heat exchanger 21, the second heat exchanger 22 and the third heat exchanger 23 to be a condenser;
step S34: the first fan 11 is controlled to rotate in reverse, and the second fan 12 is controlled to rotate in reverse.
As shown in fig. 10, the step S34 "controlling the first fan 11 to rotate reversely and controlling the second fan 12 to rotate reversely" further includes:
step S341: the speed of the first fan 11 is controlled to be V5, the speed of the second fan 12 is controlled to be V6, and V6 is controlled to be more than or equal to V5.
When the air conditioner is in the forced cooling mode, if the first heat exchanger 21, the second heat exchanger 22 and the third heat exchanger 23 are all used as condensers, the operation principle is the same as that in the conventional cooling mode in the figure, and if only one or more of the heat exchangers 2 are controlled to be condensers, for example, only the third heat exchanger 23 is controlled to be a condenser, the first expansion valve 71 and the second expansion valve 72 are closed, the gas in the compressor 4 flows into the third heat exchanger 23 only through the second four-way valve 62 and enters the room for heat exchange, and the principle that the gas coming out of the room returns to the compressor 4 is the same as that in the conventional cooling mode.
The speed of the second fan 12 is greater than or equal to the speed of the first fan 11, which is favorable for the wind to be discharged from the second heat exchanger 22 side, because the wind discharged from the second fan 12 includes the wind transmitted from the first fan 11 to the second heat exchange channel 221, and also includes the wind from the side air inlet of the second heat exchanger 22 to the second heat exchange channel 221, for better discharging the wind, the speed V6 of the second fan 12 is greater than or equal to the speed V5 of the first fan 15, but when the speed of the first fan 11 and/or the second fan 12 is too low or the outdoor ambient temperature drops to zero, the first fan 11 and/or the second fan 12 will stop rotating.
A fifth control method is that the air conditioner is in a foreign matter cleaning mode, as shown in fig. 5 and 10, the control method includes:
step S23: when the air conditioner is in a foreign matter cleaning mode of the heat exchanger 2, the first fan 11 is controlled to rotate reversely, and the second fan 12 is controlled to rotate forwards.
The air conditioner regularly cleans the foreign matters in the outdoor unit heat exchanger 2, when the air conditioner automatically detects the time that the outdoor unit of the air conditioner needs to start the foreign matter cleaning mode, the outdoor unit heat exchanger 2 is forced to clean the foreign matters, the first fan 11 is controlled to rotate reversely, the second fan 12 rotates forwards, accordingly, large forced convection is generated, a turbulent flow effect is generated, dirt at each angle is blown better, and the foreign matter cleaning mode is automatically stopped after the air conditioner operates for a certain time.
In summary, in the continuous heating mode, the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 22 are controlled to be evaporators, the third heat exchanger 23 is controlled to be a condenser, heat exchange between the third heat exchanger 23 and the outdoor is exothermic, hot air passing through the third heat exchanger 23 exchanges heat with the first heat exchanger 21 first, then the hot air is blown to the second heat exchange channel 221 through the reverse rotation of the second fan 12 to exchange heat with the second heat exchanger 22, the hot air generated by the third heat exchanger 23 exchanges heat with the second heat exchanger 22 and then is discharged from the side of the second heat exchanger 22 through the reverse rotation of the second fan 12, and the heat exchange between outdoor cold air and the first heat exchanger 21 can be reduced through the low-speed reverse rotation of the first fan 11, so that the heat exchange effect between the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 22 is ensured.
