The following description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is apparent that the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.

It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and the claims of the present invention and the above figures are used for distinguishing between similar objects and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used may be interchanged where appropriate such that the embodiments of the invention described herein may be implemented in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, article, or server that comprises a list of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus, but may include other steps or elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

As described above, the plurality of adjustment dimensions for the air conditioning apparatus can only be individually controlled, resulting in lower control efficiency and thus less user experience.

In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the embodiments of the present invention provide a coordinated control scheme, specifically, after entering a coordinated mode, in response to a control instruction for a first adjustment dimension of a plurality of adjustment dimensions of an air conditioning apparatus, controlling an opened adjustment dimension of the plurality of adjustment dimensions other than the first adjustment dimension with the first adjustment dimension controlled.

The technical solution of the present invention may be applied to the following scenarios, but is not limited thereto:

fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario provided in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the application scenario may include: an air conditioning apparatus 110 and a remote controller 120, wherein a user can operate the remote controller 120 to realize remote control of the air conditioning apparatus 110.

Alternatively, the remote controller 120 may be an infrared remote controller having an infrared emitting unit, and the air conditioning apparatus 110 may have an infrared receiving unit thereon, the infrared remote controller emitting an infrared signal to the air conditioning apparatus 110 through the infrared emitting unit, and the air conditioning apparatus 110 receiving the infrared signal through the infrared receiving unit, thereby realizing remote control of the air conditioning apparatus 110.

Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of another application scenario provided in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the application scenario may include: an air conditioning device 210 and a terminal device 220, wherein an Application (APP) for controlling the air conditioning device 210 may be installed on the terminal device 220, and a user may operate the APP to realize remote control of the air conditioning device 210.

Alternatively, the terminal device may be a mobile phone, a computer, or the like, but is not limited thereto.

It should be understood that the air conditioning apparatus in fig. 1 and 2 may be a hanging type air conditioning apparatus or a cabinet type air conditioning apparatus.

Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of another application scenario provided in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the application scenario may include: an air conditioning apparatus is provided with a touch panel, and a user can control the air conditioning apparatus by operating on the touch panel.

It should be understood that the present invention is also applicable to voice or gesture control scenes for air conditioning devices, and the like.

The technical scheme of the invention will be described in detail as follows:

fig. 4 is a flowchart of a control method of an air conditioning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, which may be performed by the air conditioning apparatus, which may be a cabinet air conditioning apparatus or a hanging air conditioning apparatus, etc., as shown in fig. 4, the method may include:

s410: switching from a normal mode of the air conditioning apparatus to a linked mode;

s420: determining a current value of a first adjustment dimension of a plurality of adjustment dimensions of the air conditioning device;

s430: and controlling a second adjustment dimension based on the current value of the first adjustment dimension.

It should be understood that the normal mode may also be referred to as a non-linked mode, referring to a mode in which multiple adjustment dimensions are independently controlled, i.e., when a user controls any one adjustment dimension, the other adjustment dimensions are not controlled in linkage. For example, in normal mode, when a user adjusts temperature, other adjustment dimensions such as wind speed, humidity, purge, and fresh air will not change.

It should be understood that the linkage mode refers to when the air conditioning apparatus acquires a control instruction for a first adjustment dimension of the plurality of adjustment dimensions, the air conditioning apparatus controls an opened adjustment dimension of the plurality of adjustment dimensions other than the first adjustment dimension in a case of controlling the first adjustment dimension, and the first adjustment dimension may be any one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions.

It should be appreciated that the second adjustment dimension is any one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions that is an opened adjustment dimension other than the first adjustment dimension.

Alternatively, the control command may be an on command, an off command, or an adjustment command.

Optionally, the adjustment instructions are used to adjust the size of the corresponding adjustment dimension, for example, to adjust the temperature, wind speed, humidity, fresh air, purified size, etc.

Alternatively, the air conditioning device may control the second conditioning dimension to change in a case of controlling the first conditioning dimension when the second conditioning dimension is lower in priority than the first conditioning dimension in response to an open instruction for the first conditioning dimension in the linked mode.

For example, assuming that the plurality of adjustment dimensions are five adjustment dimensions of temperature, wind speed, humidity, purge, and fresh air, all of which are on, and the temperature adjustment dimension is a first adjustment dimension having a higher priority than other adjustment dimensions, the air conditioning apparatus may coordinate the four adjustment dimensions of wind speed, humidity, purge, and fresh air when the user adjusts the temperature adjustment dimension.

Alternatively, the air conditioning device may be in a linkage mode, in which the linkage controls the second adjustment dimension to change in response to an adjustment instruction for the first adjustment dimension.

For example, assuming that the plurality of adjustment dimensions are five adjustment dimensions of temperature, wind speed, humidity, purification, and fresh air, the dimension adjustment dimensions are all on, when the user adjusts the temperature adjustment dimensions, the air conditioning device can adjust the sizes of the four adjustment dimensions of wind speed, humidity, purification, and fresh air in a linkage manner.

The following examples are illustrative of the linkage mode: for example, when a user adjusts the temperature dimension, the opened wind speed adjustment dimension may also be automatically adjusted. For another example, when a user opens a wind speed adjustment dimension, the opened humidity adjustment dimension may also be automatically adjusted. For another example, when the user turns off the humidity adjustment dimension, the adjustment dimension that has been turned on may remain unchanged.

Alternatively, the linkage pattern is for a plurality of adjustment dimensions, which may be system default, wherein the plurality of adjustment dimensions may each have a linkage relationship, or may have a linkage relationship in part and no linkage relationship in part.

Optionally, the plurality of adjustment dimensions may include: temperature, wind speed, humidity, purification, fresh air, etc., but is not limited thereto. The wind speed adjustment dimension herein may include a no wind sense condition. Humidity conditioning dimensions may include humidification and dehumidification conditions.

Alternatively, the air conditioning apparatus may switch from the normal mode to the linked mode of the air conditioning apparatus in response to a first mode switching instruction for triggering the air conditioning apparatus to switch from the normal mode to the linked mode.

Alternatively, the first mode switching instruction may include, but is not limited to, the following:

in the first case, the air conditioning apparatus may acquire an on operation for the linkage mode, and generate the first mode switching instruction in response to the on operation.

For example, assuming that the air-conditioning apparatus is currently in the normal mode, when the user clicks or touches a linkage key on the remote controller or the touch panel, or the user clicks or triggers a start icon on the APP, the air-conditioning apparatus may be triggered to switch from the normal mode to the linkage mode. Alternatively, the user may trigger the air conditioning apparatus to switch from the normal mode to the linked mode by voice, gesture, or the like.

In the second case, the air conditioning apparatus may acquire a closing operation to the normal mode; and generating the first mode switching instruction in response to a closing operation.

For example, assuming that the air conditioning device is currently in a normal mode, when the user turns off a normal mode key on the remote controller or touch panel, or the user turns off a normal mode icon on the APP, the air conditioning device may be triggered to switch from the normal mode to the linked mode. Or, the user can also close the normal mode through voice, gestures or postures and the like, so as to trigger the air conditioning equipment to switch from the normal mode to the linkage mode and the like.

In case three, the air conditioning apparatus acquires a selection instruction and a linkage instruction for at least one adjustment dimension, and switches from the normal mode to the linkage mode in response to the selection instruction and the linkage instruction.

For example, assuming that the air conditioning device is currently in the normal mode, when the user selects five adjustment dimensions of temperature, wind speed, humidity, purge, fresh air, then the user clicks the linked icon or key, the air conditioning device will switch from the normal mode to the linked mode.

Alternatively, in the third case, assuming that the user selects a plurality of adjustment dimensions, the air conditioning apparatus may determine whether a maximum interval time of a selection instruction among selection instructions of the plurality of adjustment dimensions is smaller than a preset time period, and if so, turn on a linkage mode of the air conditioning apparatus in response to the selection instruction and the linkage instruction.

Alternatively, the preset duration may be 5s or 10s, etc., which the present invention is not limited to.

It should be understood that the preset time period is set so that erroneous judgment of the air conditioning apparatus can be reduced. For example, assuming that the preset duration is not set, the user selects the fresh air adjustment dimension at time t, after half an hour, the user selects the three adjustment dimensions of temperature, humidity and wind speed, then the user may click or touch a linkage button or icon, and in fact, the user desires to link the three adjustment dimensions of temperature, humidity and wind speed, but if the preset duration is not set, the air conditioning device may link the four adjustment dimensions of fresh air, temperature, humidity and wind speed.

The maximum interval time of the selection instruction is exemplarily described as follows: suppose that the user selects three adjustment dimensions of temperature, humidity and wind speed, and their corresponding selection times are: t, t+1s, t+2s, then the maximum interval time of the corresponding selection instruction is t+2-t=2s for these three adjustment dimensions.

After the air conditioning device is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, the air conditioning device will turn on at least one adjustment dimension, and the turned on at least one adjustment dimension will be described below:

alternatively, when the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, the at least one adjustment dimension in which the air conditioning apparatus is turned on may be any one of the following, but is not limited thereto: the system defaults to the adjustment dimension which needs to be opened; the adjustment dimension of historical opening in the linkage mode; the adjustment dimension opened in the normal mode; and determining the adjustment dimension which needs to be opened according to the current environment.

For example, the system defaults to five adjustment dimensions of starting temperature, humidity, wind speed, purification, fresh air, based on which the five adjustment dimensions can be automatically started after the air conditioning device acquires the first mode switching instruction.

For example, the system defaults to two adjustment dimensions, namely, an opening temperature and a wind speed, based on which the two adjustment dimensions can be automatically opened after the air conditioning device acquires the first mode switching instruction.

For example, it is assumed that the adjustment dimensions that the user has last turned on in the linked mode are three adjustment dimensions of temperature, humidity, and wind speed, based on which, when the air conditioning apparatus acquires the first mode switching instruction, the three adjustment dimensions may be automatically turned on.

For example, the air conditioning device may collect current environmental data, such as temperature, humidity, pollution index, etc., further, the air conditioning device may determine the adjustment dimensions that need to be opened according to the current environmental data, based on which, when the air conditioning device acquires the first mode switching instruction, the adjustment dimensions that need to be opened may be automatically opened.

For example, it is assumed that after the air conditioning apparatus is started, it first enters a normal mode, in which it is assumed that the user starts both the temperature and wind speed adjustment dimensions, and then when the air conditioning apparatus acquires the first mode switching instruction, both the temperature and wind speed adjustment dimensions may be automatically started.

Optionally, when the air conditioning device is not used and the air conditioning device acquires the first mode switching instruction, the air conditioning device may start the adjustment dimension that the system needs to start by default or start the adjustment dimension that needs to be started according to the current environment. When the air conditioning equipment is used, when the air conditioning equipment acquires a starting instruction or a linkage instruction, the air conditioning equipment can start an adjustment dimension which is required to be started by default, or start an adjustment dimension which is historically started in a linkage mode, or start an adjustment dimension which is started in a common mode, or start an adjustment dimension which is required to be started according to the current environment.

Optionally, the air conditioning device may push a first prompt to prompt the user that the air conditioning device has entered the linked mode.

It should be understood that the first prompt information is used to prompt the user that the air conditioning apparatus has entered the linkage mode.

Optionally, the first prompt information is any one of the following, but is not limited to the following: the indicator lamp corresponding to the linkage mode is lightened; the indicator lamp corresponding to the linkage mode is always on for a first preset time period; the indicator lamp corresponding to the linkage mode presents a first preset color; the indicator lights corresponding to the linkage mode show a first preset color and are always on for a first preset time period; the indicator lamp corresponding to the linkage mode flashes according to the first preset mode and is provided with voice information.

Optionally, the indicator light corresponding to the linkage mode may be disposed in a touch panel of the cabinet or in an on-hook display panel.

Alternatively, the indicator light corresponding to the linkage mode may be one or more.

Alternatively, the first preset time period may be 10 minutes, 30 minutes, or the like.

Alternatively, the first preset color may be blue, green, red, or the like.

Alternatively, the first preset pattern may flash once every N seconds, where N is a positive integer, or the interval time between two adjacent flashes is 1s,2s, and so on, which are sequentially cycled.

For example, as shown in fig. 5, an icon corresponding to the linked mode is displayed on the interface, and the icon indicates that the indicator lamp corresponding to the linked mode is turned on, which means that the linked mode is turned on. As shown in fig. 6, an icon corresponding to the linked mode is not displayed in the interface, which represents that the linked mode has been turned off.

For example, the indicator light corresponding to the linked mode is normally on for 10 minutes, which may indicate that the linked mode has been turned on, and the indicator light corresponding to the linked mode is off, which may indicate that the linked mode has been turned off.

For example, if the indicator light corresponding to the linkage mode is green, the indicator light corresponding to the linkage mode is turned off or red may indicate that the linkage mode has been turned off.

For example, if the indicator light corresponding to the linked mode is green and has a duration of 10 minutes, indicating that the linked mode has been on, the indicator light corresponding to the linked mode may be off or red, indicating that the linked mode has been off.

For example, the indicator lights corresponding to the linked mode flash once every 2 seconds, indicating that the linked mode has been turned on, and the indicator lights corresponding to the linked mode go out or appear red, indicating that the linked mode has been turned off.

For example, the air conditioning device may also use a voice broadcast mode to broadcast to the user: the "linked mode is on" means that the linked mode is on.

In order to facilitate the user to distinguish which adjusting dimensions are in an on state and which adjusting dimensions are in an off state, in the embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioning device may push, for a plurality of adjusting dimensions, third prompting information or fourth prompting information, respectively, where the third prompting information is used to prompt the user that the corresponding adjusting dimension is in an on state, and the fourth prompting information is used to prompt the user that the corresponding adjusting dimension is in an off state.

Optionally, for any one of the adjustment dimensions, the corresponding third prompt information may be any one of the following, but is not limited thereto: the indicator light corresponding to the adjustment dimension presents a third preset color; the indicator lamp corresponding to the adjustment dimension presents a third preset color and is always on for a third preset time period; the indicator light corresponding to the adjustment dimension flashes according to a third preset mode.

Optionally, the indicator light corresponding to the adjustment dimension may be disposed in a touch panel of the cabinet or in an on-hook display panel.

Optionally, the indication lamp corresponding to the adjustment dimension may be one or more.

Alternatively, the third preset time period may be 1s or 2s, or the like.

Alternatively, the third preset color may be white, blue, green, red, or the like.

Alternatively, the third preset pattern may flash once every interval P seconds, where P is a positive integer, or the interval time between two adjacent flashes is 2s,1s, and so on, which are sequentially cycled.

Optionally, for any one of the adjustment dimensions, the fourth prompt information corresponding to the adjustment dimension is any one of the following, but is not limited to the following: the indicator light corresponding to the adjustment dimension is turned off; the indicator light corresponding to the adjustment dimension presents a fourth preset color.

Alternatively, the fourth preset color may be red, purple, or the like.

For example, as shown in fig. 5, the striped box indicates that the indicator light appears white, representing that the corresponding adjustment dimension is in an on state, and the blank box indicates that the indicator light is off, representing that the corresponding adjustment dimension is in an off state. It will be appreciated that the results shown in FIG. 5 are that the current temperature and air conditioning dimensions are on, while the humidity, purge and fresh air conditioning dimensions are off.

Optionally, in order to facilitate the user to learn the progress of each of the plurality of adjustment dimensions, for any one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions, when the adjustment dimension is in the on state, the air-conditioning apparatus may further display the current progress of the adjustment dimension.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the striped box indicates that the indicator light appears white, representing that the corresponding adjustment dimension is in an on state, and the length of the striped box indicates the current progress of the adjustment dimension.

It should be understood that in fig. 7, the on/off state of one adjustment dimension and the current progress are indicated at the same time by the same indicator lamp. In practice, the on/off status of one adjustment dimension and the current progress may also be indicated by different indicator lights.

For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the striped box indicates that the indicator light appears white, representing that the corresponding adjustment dimension is in an on state, and the shaded height indicates the current progress of the adjustment dimension.

It should be understood that the indication lamp represented by a striped box in fig. 8 indicates the on/off state of the adjustment dimension, and the indication lamp represented by a hatched portion indicates the current progress of the adjustment dimension. In practice, the on/off state of the adjustment dimension may also be indicated by an indicator light represented by a hatched portion, and the current progress of the adjustment dimension may be indicated by an indicator light represented by a striped frame. Alternatively, both of the indicator lights may indicate the on/off state of the adjustment dimension and the current progress at the same time.

Assuming that the air conditioning device may default to a main adjustment dimension or the user may set a main adjustment dimension, after the air conditioning device switches from the normal mode to the linked mode, other on adjustment dimensions may be controlled based on the main adjustment dimension. Alternatively, after the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, other opened adjustment dimensions may be controlled based on the opened adjustment dimension having the highest priority. The first adjustment dimension may be the primary adjustment dimension herein or the highest priority opened adjustment dimension. The primary adjustment dimension may be an already-open adjustment dimension or an unopened adjustment dimension.

In order to make the user intuitively feel which of the first adjustment dimensions is, in the embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioning device may push the second prompting information for the first adjustment dimension to prompt the user that the first adjustment dimension is the main adjustment dimension or the opened adjustment dimension with the highest priority.

Optionally, the second prompt information is any one of the following, but is not limited to the following: the indicator lamp corresponding to the first adjusting dimension presents a second preset color; the indicator lights corresponding to the first adjusting dimension display a second preset color and are always on for a second preset time period; the indicator light corresponding to the first adjustment dimension flashes according to a second preset mode.

Optionally, the indicator light corresponding to the first adjustment dimension may be disposed in a touch panel of the cabinet or in an on-hook display panel.

Optionally, the indicator light corresponding to the first adjustment dimension may be one or more.

Alternatively, the second preset time period may be 3s or 5s, or the like.

Alternatively, the second preset color may be blue, green, red, or the like.

Alternatively, the second preset pattern may flash once every M seconds, where M is a positive integer, or the interval time between two adjacent flashes is 1s,3s, and so on, in turn.

For example, as shown in fig. 9, assuming that the temperature adjustment dimension is the main adjustment dimension, when the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, the indication lamp corresponding to the temperature adjustment dimension may appear blue and last for 1s, and the indication lamp appears blue as indicated by a black dot frame in fig. 9.

Optionally, the air conditioning device may also display the current progress of the first adjustment dimension.

For example, as shown in fig. 10, assuming that the temperature adjustment dimension is the main adjustment dimension, when the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, the indication lamp corresponding to the temperature adjustment dimension may appear blue for 1s, the indication lamp appears blue in fig. 10 by a black dot frame, and a change in the length of the black dot frame indicates the current progress of the temperature adjustment dimension.

For example, as shown in fig. 11, assuming that the temperature adjustment dimension is the main adjustment dimension, when the air-conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, the indication lamp corresponding to the temperature adjustment dimension may appear blue for 1s, the indication lamp appears blue as indicated by a black dot frame in fig. 11, and the change in height of the hatched portion indicates the current progress of the temperature adjustment dimension.

It should be understood that the temperature adjustment dimension is shown as a main adjustment dimension by a black dot box in fig. 11, and the current progress of the temperature adjustment dimension is shown by a hatched portion. In practice, the temperature adjustment dimension may be represented by a hatched portion as the main adjustment dimension, and the current progress of the temperature adjustment dimension may be represented by a change in the length of the striped frame. Alternatively, both portions may indicate the temperature adjustment dimension as the primary adjustment dimension and the current progress of the temperature adjustment dimension at the same time.

It should be appreciated that the current value of the first adjustment dimension is used to determine an adjusted value corresponding to a second adjustment dimension, the second adjustment dimension being any one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions that is an opened adjustment dimension other than the first adjustment dimension.

As described above, the first adjustment dimension may be the primary adjustment dimension or the highest priority opened adjustment dimension. The primary adjustment dimension may be an already-open adjustment dimension or an unopened adjustment dimension.

Optionally, if the first adjustment dimension is the opened adjustment dimension, the air conditioning device determines that the current value of the first adjustment dimension is the current opening value of the first adjustment dimension; if the first adjustment dimension is the unopened adjustment dimension, the air conditioning device determines that the current value of the first adjustment dimension is the value of the first adjustment dimension in the current environment.

For example, assuming that the thermostat dimension is the main thermostat dimension and the thermostat dimension is in an on state and the current on temperature is 25 degrees, then the current value of the thermostat dimension is 25 degrees. Assuming that the temperature adjustment dimension is the main adjustment dimension, but the temperature adjustment dimension is in the off state, the air conditioning apparatus may acquire the current environment through the sensor, e.g., the indoor temperature is 20 degrees, and the current value of the temperature adjustment dimension is 20 degrees.

In the embodiment of the invention, when the air conditioning equipment is switched from a normal mode to a linkage mode, a one-time linkage control process is triggered, namely the air conditioning equipment determines the current value of a first adjusting dimension in a plurality of adjusting dimensions of the air conditioning equipment; the control efficiency can be improved by adopting the linkage control mode, and the user experience can be improved by controlling the opened adjustment dimensions except the first adjustment dimension in the plurality of adjustment dimensions based on the current value of the first adjustment dimension.

Further, the air conditioning equipment can push the first prompt information to prompt the user that the air conditioning equipment enters the linkage mode, and the user experience can be improved. The air conditioning device can also push the third prompt message or the fourth prompt message respectively for a plurality of adjustment dimensions, so that a user can distinguish which adjustment dimensions are in an on state and which adjustment dimensions are in an off state, and user experience can be improved. The air conditioning device can also display the current progress of each adjustment dimension, and user experience can also be improved. The air conditioning device can push the second prompt information aiming at the first adjustment dimension, so that a user can know which of the first adjustment dimensions is, and the user experience can be further improved.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 12, the step S430 may include:

s1210: determining a first mapping relation between the current value of the first adjusting dimension and the adjusted value corresponding to the second adjusting dimension;

s1220: determining an adjusted numerical value corresponding to the second adjustment dimension according to the current numerical value of the first adjustment dimension and the first mapping relation;

s1230: determining a first to-be-adjusted quantity of the second adjusting dimension according to the current value of the second adjusting dimension and the adjusted value corresponding to the second adjusting dimension;

s1240: the second adjustment dimension is adjusted according to the first amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension.

For example, assuming that the air conditioning apparatus is currently turned on in two adjustment dimensions of temperature and wind speed, the default temperature adjustment dimension is the main adjustment dimension, when the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, the air conditioning apparatus may determine the current on temperature to be, for example, 25 degrees, and if the wind speed corresponding to 25 degrees is 1 st gear, assuming that the wind speed is currently 2 nd gear, the air conditioning apparatus may lower the wind speed by 1 st gear.

For example, assuming that the air conditioning apparatus is currently turned on in a wind speed adjustment dimension, the default temperature adjustment dimension is a main adjustment dimension, when the air conditioning apparatus is switched from a normal mode to a linked mode, the air conditioning apparatus may determine that the current indoor temperature is 20 degrees, and if the wind speed corresponding to 20 degrees is 2 th gear, assuming that the wind speed is currently 3 rd gear, the air conditioning apparatus may reduce the wind speed by 1 th gear.

For example, assuming that the air conditioning apparatus is currently turned on in five adjustment dimensions of temperature, wind speed, fresh air, purification and humidity, the priority of the temperature adjustment dimensions is higher than that of the wind speed, fresh air, purification and humidity adjustment dimensions, when the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode, the air conditioning apparatus may determine the current on temperature, assuming 25 degrees, and then the air conditioning apparatus may determine adjusted values corresponding to the other adjustment dimensions according to the mapping relationship between the temperature adjustment dimensions and the other adjustment dimensions, for example, the wind speed corresponding to 25 degrees is 1 st gear, the fresh air is 1 st gear, the purification is 2 nd gear, and the humidity is 2 nd gear, and then the air conditioning apparatus may determine the current values of the four adjustment dimensions of wind speed, fresh air, purification and humidity, and thus determine their respective amounts to be adjusted.

In the embodiment of the invention, when the air conditioning equipment is switched from the normal mode to the linkage mode, the air conditioning equipment can determine the current value of the first conditioning dimension according to the state that the first conditioning dimension is opened or not, and the opened conditioning dimensions except the first conditioning dimension in the plurality of conditioning dimensions are controlled based on the current value of the first conditioning dimension, so that the linkage control mode can improve the control efficiency, thereby improving the user experience.

It should be appreciated that in view of the adjustment dimension being actively adjusted by the user for any of a plurality of adjustment dimensions, the user does not actually expect that the adjustment dimension is adjusted in linkage by an excessive amount of adjustment if the adjustment dimension is again being controlled in linkage. Conversely, if the adjustment dimension is actively adjusted by the user for a longer time than the current time, then the user actually expects the adjustment dimension to be adjusted in linkage if the adjustment dimension is again controlled in linkage. Based on this, in the embodiment of the present invention, a first adjustment coefficient is introduced, and the first adjustment coefficient may be determined according to a time interval between the time of the last user active control of the second adjustment dimension and the current time. The longer the time interval is, the weaker the linkage control attenuation to the second adjustment dimension is, the corresponding first adjustment coefficient gradually returns from 0 to 1,0 represents full attenuation, and 1 represents no attenuation.

Optionally, the air conditioning device may calculate a ratio of a time interval of the last time the user actively controlled the second adjustment dimension from the current time to the preset time; the smaller of the ratio and 1 is determined as the first adjustment coefficient.

Alternatively, the preset time may be 30 minutes, 40 minutes, etc., which the present invention is not limited to.

For example, assume that the air conditioning apparatus is turned on at 0 th minute and enters the normal mode, the user adjusts the wind speed to 4 th gear at 6 th minute, the user adjusts the humidity to 4 th gear at 9 th minute, the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode at 30 th minute, and assume that the temperature adjustment mode is the main adjustment mode, which is in an on state, and the current on temperature is 25 degrees. Then the air conditioning apparatus switches from the normal mode to the linked mode at 30 minutes, at which time the wind speed is controlled in linkage, and the last active wind speed adjustment by the user is at 6 minutes, the current time, i.e. the time interval between 30 minutes and 6 minutes, is 24 minutes, and the first adjustment coefficient at this time is 24/30=0.8 assuming that the preset time is 30 minutes.

It should be appreciated that considering that multiple tuning dimensions have respective priorities, the priority of a first tuning dimension may determine a second tuning factor for the first tuning dimension to a second tuning dimension, the higher the priority of the first tuning dimension, the greater its second tuning factor to the second tuning dimension, and conversely, the lower the priority of the first tuning dimension, the less its second tuning factor to the second tuning dimension.

For example, assuming that the priority of temperature is higher than the priority of wind speed, humidity, and the priority of humidity and wind speed is the same, based on this, as shown in fig. 13, the second adjustment coefficient from the temperature adjustment dimension to the humidity adjustment dimension may be 1, the second adjustment coefficient from the humidity adjustment dimension to the temperature adjustment dimension may be 0.5, the second adjustment coefficient from the temperature adjustment dimension to the wind speed adjustment dimension may be 1, the second adjustment coefficient from the wind speed adjustment dimension to the temperature adjustment dimension may be 0.5, the second adjustment coefficient from the humidity adjustment dimension to the wind speed adjustment dimension may be 0.5, and the second adjustment coefficient from the wind speed adjustment dimension to the humidity adjustment dimension may also be 0.5.

Alternatively, the priorities of the plurality of adjustment dimensions may be set when the air-conditioning apparatus leaves the factory, or the user may set the priorities of the adjustment dimensions through a remote control, an APP, or a touch panel, which is not limited in the present invention.

Based on this, as shown in fig. 14, before S1240, the control method may further include:

s1410: determining a first adjustment coefficient according to the time interval between the time of the last user actively controlling the second adjustment dimension and the current time, and/or determining a second adjustment coefficient from the first adjustment dimension to the second adjustment dimension;

Accordingly, S1240 may include:

s1420: adjusting the second adjustment dimension according to the first adjustment coefficient and a first amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension; or adjusting the second adjustment dimension according to the second adjustment coefficient and a first amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension; or adjusting the second adjustment dimension according to the first adjustment coefficient, the second adjustment coefficient and the first amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension.

Optionally, the air-conditioning apparatus may calculate a product of the first adjustment coefficient and the first amount to be adjusted to obtain a second amount to be adjusted, or the air-conditioning apparatus may calculate a product of the second adjustment coefficient and the first amount to be adjusted to obtain a second amount to be adjusted, or the air-conditioning apparatus may calculate a product of the first adjustment coefficient, the second adjustment coefficient and the first amount to be adjusted to obtain a second amount to be adjusted, and further, the air-conditioning apparatus may adjust the second adjustment dimension according to the second amount to be adjusted.

It should be appreciated that the value of the second adjustment factor may be zero, and if zero, the air conditioning device may not adjust the second adjustment dimension.

The control method in combination with the first adjustment coefficient is explained below by way of example:

for example, assume that the air conditioning apparatus is turned on at 0 th minute and enters the normal mode, the user adjusts the wind speed to 4 th gear at 6 th minute, the user adjusts the humidity to 4 th gear at 9 th minute, the air conditioning apparatus is switched from the normal mode to the linked mode at 30 th minute, and assume that the temperature adjustment mode is the main adjustment mode, which is in an on state, and the current on temperature is 25 degrees.

The air conditioning device switches from the normal mode to the linkage mode at 30 minutes, at which time the wind speed is controlled in a linkage manner, the wind speed is actively adjusted by the user at 6 minutes, the current time, that is, the time interval between 30 minutes and 6 minutes is 24 minutes, the preset time is assumed to be 30 minutes, then the first adjustment coefficient corresponding to the wind speed is 24/30=0.8, the adjusted value of the wind speed corresponding to the temperature of 25 degrees is assumed to be 60, and the value of the current wind speed is assumed to be 40, so that the first to-be-adjusted amount of the wind speed is 60-40=20, based on which it is obtained that the second to-be-adjusted amount corresponding to the wind speed is 20×0.8=16, and further, the wind speed is actually adjusted to 40+16=56 at 30 minutes.

The air conditioning apparatus switches from the normal mode to the linked mode at 30 minutes, at which time the humidity is controlled in linkage, the user's last active humidity adjustment is at 9 minutes, the current time, i.e., 30 minutes, is 21 minutes from the time interval of 9 minutes, assuming that the preset time is 30 minutes, then the first adjustment coefficient corresponding to the wind speed is 21/30=0.7, assuming that the adjusted value of the humidity corresponding to the temperature of 25 degrees should be 60, and assuming that the value of the current humidity is 40, whereby it is known that the first amount to be adjusted of the humidity is 60-40=20, based on which it is possible to obtain that the second amount to be adjusted corresponding to the humidity should be 20×0.7=14, and further, the humidity should be actually adjusted to 40+14=54 at 30 minutes.

The control method in combination with the second adjustment coefficient is explained below by way of example:

The air conditioning apparatus switches from the normal mode to the linked mode at 30 minutes, and then controls the wind speed in a linked manner, assuming that the second adjustment coefficient from the temperature adjustment dimension to the wind speed adjustment dimension is 1, the adjusted value of the wind speed corresponding to the temperature of 25 degrees should be 60, and the current wind speed value is 40, so that the first amount to be adjusted of the wind speed is 60-40=20, and based on this, it can be obtained that the second amount to be adjusted corresponding to the wind speed should be 20×1=20, and further, the wind speed should be actually adjusted to 40+20=60 at 30 minutes.

The air conditioning apparatus switches from the normal mode to the linked mode at 30 minutes, and then controls the humidity in a linked manner, assuming that the second adjustment coefficient from the temperature adjustment dimension to the humidity adjustment dimension is 1, the adjusted value of the humidity corresponding to the temperature of 25 degrees should be 60, and assuming that the value of the current humidity is 40, it is known that the first amount to be adjusted of the humidity is 60-40=20, based on which it is possible that the second amount to be adjusted corresponding to the humidity at this time should be 20×1=20, and further, the humidity should be actually adjusted to 40+20=60 at 30 minutes.

The control method combining the first adjustment coefficient and the second adjustment coefficient is described below by way of example:

The air conditioning device switches from the normal mode to the linkage mode at 30 minutes, at which time the wind speed is controlled in a linkage manner, the wind speed is actively adjusted by the user at the last time, the current time, that is, the time interval between the 30 th minute and the 6 th minute is 24 minutes, the preset time is 30 minutes, then the first adjustment coefficient corresponding to the wind speed is 24/30=0.8, the second adjustment coefficient corresponding to the wind speed from the temperature adjustment dimension to the wind speed adjustment dimension is 1, the adjusted value of the wind speed corresponding to the temperature is 60, and the current wind speed is 40, so that the first to-be-adjusted value of the wind speed is 60-40=20, based on which it can be obtained that the second to-be-adjusted value corresponding to the wind speed is 20×0.8×1=16, and further, the wind speed is actually adjusted to 40+16=56 at the 30 minutes.

The air conditioning device switches from the normal mode to the linkage mode at 30 minutes, at which time the humidity is controlled in linkage, the user's last active humidity adjustment is at 9 minutes, the current time, that is, the time interval between 30 minutes and 9 minutes is 21 minutes, the preset time is assumed to be 30 minutes, then the first adjustment coefficient corresponding to the wind speed is 21/30=0.7, the second adjustment coefficient corresponding to the humidity adjustment dimension from the temperature adjustment dimension to the humidity adjustment dimension is assumed to be 1, the adjusted value of the humidity corresponding to the temperature of 25 degrees is 60, and the current humidity value is 40, so that the first to-be-adjusted amount of the humidity is 60-40=20, based on which it can be obtained that the second to-be-adjusted amount corresponding to the humidity at this time is 20×0.71=14, and further, the humidity at 30 minutes is actually adjusted to 40+14=54.

Considering that the second amount to be adjusted may exceed the maximum adjustable amount of the second adjustment dimension, the air conditioning apparatus may adjust the second adjustment dimension as follows, but is not limited thereto:

optionally, if the second amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension is less than or equal to the maximum adjustable amount of the second adjustment dimension, the air-conditioning apparatus may adjust the second adjustment dimension by the second amount to be adjusted, and if the second amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension is greater than the maximum adjustable amount of the second adjustment dimension, the second adjustment dimension may be adjusted by the maximum adjustable amount. Or if the determined second amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension is greater than the maximum adjustable amount of the second adjustment dimension, adjusting the second adjustment dimension according to the maximum adjustable amount of the second adjustment dimension, and continuing to cycle to the minimum value of the second adjustment dimension to start adjustment until the adjustment amount reaches the second amount to be adjusted determined based on the mapping relation.

For example, since each adjustment dimension has the limitation of the highest and lowest values, for example, assuming that the wind speed is up to 5 th gear and the current wind speed is at 3 rd gear, if it is assumed that the wind speed needs to be raised by 3 rd gear again according to the above-mentioned mapping relation and the first adjustment coefficient, it is obvious that the wind speed is up to 5 th gear, or the wind speed adjustment is a cyclic adjustment process, and after the wind speed is raised to 5 th gear, the wind speed can continue to enter 1 st gear again.

In the embodiment of the invention, the air conditioning device can adjust the second adjustment dimension according to the first adjustment coefficient, the second adjustment coefficient and the first amount to be adjusted of the second adjustment dimension. The mode of controlling the second adjusting dimension according to the adjusting coefficient is more reasonable and effective, so that the user experience can be further improved.

Fig. 15 is a flowchart of a control method of another air conditioning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 15, after S430, on the basis of fig. 15, the method may further include:

s440: acquiring a second mode switching instruction;

s450: and responding to the second mode switching instruction, and switching from the linkage mode to the normal mode.

Alternatively, the second mode switching instruction may be generated based on a closing operation of the linkage mode, or the second mode switching instruction may be generated based on an opening instruction of the normal mode, or the second mode switching instruction may be generated based on a clicking or touching operation of a mode switching flag or key, which may be provided on the remote controller or the APP or the touch panel.

It should be appreciated that after the air conditioning apparatus is switched to normal mode, the user can only control each conditioning dimension individually, e.g., when the user adjusts temperature, none of the other wind speed, fresh air, and purge conditioning dimensions are coordinated.

Optionally, after the air conditioning device is switched to the normal mode, the air conditioning device can be switched to the linkage mode again, and after the air conditioning device enters the linkage mode, the air conditioning device can control a plurality of adjustment dimensions according to the control method provided by the invention.

In the embodiment of the invention, the air conditioning equipment can flexibly switch between the linkage mode and the common mode, so that the user experience can be improved.
