技术领域technical field

本申请涉及智能家电技术领域，例如涉及一种用于控制空调的方法、装置、空调和存储介质。The present application relates to the technical field of smart home appliances, for example, to a method and device for controlling an air conditioner, an air conditioner and a storage medium.

背景技术Background technique

空调能够调节空气的温度、湿度、新鲜度等参数，其已经成为现代生活中不可缺少的一部分。随着用户的需求的不断增加，空调的功能也在不断地丰富。例如，空调出风方向一般是朝向侧面出风。在侧面出风的基础上，对风向进行调节，但总体的出风仍是朝向侧面的。这就使得风向的调节具有一定的局限性，不能很好地满足用户对于不同风向的需求。Air conditioners can adjust parameters such as air temperature, humidity, and freshness, and have become an indispensable part of modern life. With the continuous increase of user needs, the functions of air conditioners are also constantly enriched. For example, the air outlet direction of the air conditioner is generally toward the side. On the basis of side wind, the wind direction is adjusted, but the overall wind is still towards the side. This makes the adjustment of the wind direction have certain limitations, which cannot well meet the needs of users for different wind directions.

相关技术中公开了一种空调外壳结构和壁挂机，空调外壳结构包括左侧板、右侧板和底板，所述左侧板和/或所述右侧板上开设有侧出风口，所述底板上开设有下出风口，所述下出风口至少有两个。壁挂机包括上述空调外壳结构和至少两个蜗壳，每个所述蜗壳的蜗壳出风口分别与其邻近侧的下出风口和侧出风口连通。所述蜗壳出风口包括下蜗壳出风口和侧蜗壳出风口，所述侧蜗壳出风口与所述侧出风口的位置相对应；所述下蜗壳出风口与所述下出风口的位置相对应。An air conditioner shell structure and a wall-mounted machine are disclosed in the related art. The air conditioner shell structure includes a left side plate, a right side plate and a bottom plate, and a side air outlet is opened on the left side plate and/or the right side plate. There are at least two lower air outlets on the base plate. The wall-mounted machine includes the above-mentioned air conditioner shell structure and at least two volutes, and the volute air outlet of each volute communicates with the lower air outlet and the side air outlet on the adjacent side respectively. The volute air outlet includes a lower volute air outlet and a side volute air outlet, the side volute air outlet corresponds to the position of the side air outlet; the lower volute air outlet is connected to the lower air outlet corresponding to the position.

上述相关技术中，空调外壳结构上开设有侧出风口和下出风口。为了实现下出风和侧出风，蜗壳也具有下蜗壳出风口和侧蜗壳出风口，并与空调外壳结构上的下出风口和侧出风口相对应。以空调的侧出风口出风为例，空调的下出风口处的第一导风板会关闭。但是下蜗壳出风口和侧蜗壳出风口都是出风的。下蜗壳出风口吹出的风被第一导风板所阻挡而无法正常吹出，就会在外壳内部涡旋，从而造成气流紊乱，进而影响空调侧出风气流的稳定性和均匀性，从而影响送风效果。In the above-mentioned related technologies, the air conditioner shell structure is provided with side air outlets and lower air outlets. In order to realize the bottom air outlet and the side air outlet, the volute also has a lower volute air outlet and a side volute air outlet, which correspond to the lower air outlet and the side air outlet on the air conditioner shell structure. Taking the air outflow from the side air outlet of the air conditioner as an example, the first air deflector at the lower air outlet of the air conditioner will be closed. However, the air outlet of the lower volute and the air outlet of the side volute are all air outlets. The air blown out of the air outlet of the lower volute is blocked by the first air deflector and cannot be blown out normally, and will vortex inside the casing, causing air flow disorder, which in turn affects the stability and uniformity of the air outlet air flow on the side of the air conditioner, thereby affecting Air supply effect.

空调可以根据当前的运行状态，确定出当前出风方向。也可以对用户上一次发送的风向指令进行解析，从而确定出当前出风方向。用户可以通过遥控器或者移动设备向空调发送风向指令。移动设备例如可以包括手机、智能家居设备、可穿戴设备、智能移动设备、虚拟现实设备等，或其任意组合，其中，可穿戴设备例如包括：智能手表、智能手环、计步器等。The air conditioner can determine the current air outlet direction according to the current operating state. It is also possible to analyze the wind direction command sent by the user last time, so as to determine the current wind direction. The user can send wind direction instructions to the air conditioner through the remote control or mobile device. The mobile device may include, for example, a mobile phone, a smart home device, a wearable device, a smart mobile device, a virtual reality device, etc., or any combination thereof, wherein the wearable device includes, for example, a smart watch, a smart bracelet, a pedometer, and the like.

空调接收到本次用户发送的指令后，对本次指令进行解析，从而确定出空调的目标出风方向。比较目标出风方向和当前出风方向，从而确定出蜗壳的目标位置。如果目标出风方向和当前出风方向一致，则蜗壳的目标位置为当前位置，即控制蜗壳的位置保持不变。如果目标出风方向和当前出风方向不一致，则进一步确定出蜗壳的目标位置。然后根据蜗壳的目标位置，控制蜗壳和密封挡板转动。蜗壳能够在第一位置和第二位置之间往复运动。蜗壳的目标位置为第一位置或第二位置。蜗壳转动至目标位置后，实现空调的出风从第一风口或第二风口吹出。基于蜗壳的目标位置，控制密封挡板适应性转动，以在空调出风的同时，减少漏风。After receiving the instruction sent by the user, the air conditioner analyzes the instruction to determine the target air outlet direction of the air conditioner. Compare the target air outlet direction with the current air outlet direction, so as to determine the target position of the volute. If the target air outlet direction is consistent with the current air outlet direction, the target position of the volute is the current position, that is, the position of the control volute remains unchanged. If the target air outlet direction is inconsistent with the current air outlet direction, the target position of the volute is further determined. Then, according to the target position of the volute, the volute and the sealing baffle are controlled to rotate. The volute is reciprocable between a first position and a second position. The target position of the volute is the first position or the second position. After the volute rotates to the target position, the outlet air of the air conditioner is blown out from the first air port or the second air port. Based on the target position of the volute, the adaptive rotation of the sealing baffle is controlled to reduce air leakage while the air conditioner is blowing out air.

在本公开实施例中，壳体设置有出风方向不同的第一风口和第二风口。壳体内设置有能够在第一位置和第二位置之间往复转动的蜗壳。基于目标出风方向和当前出风方向，确定出蜗壳的目标位置。从而控制蜗壳转动至目标位置，以实现空调从第一风口出风或第二风口出风。利用蜗壳的转动，能够实现出风方向的改变。蜗壳的出风能够顺利地通过对应的风口。而且，基于蜗壳的目标位置，控制密封挡板适应性转动，能够减少漏风的现象。这样就提高了出风气流的稳定性和均匀性，以实现提高送风效果的目的。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the casing is provided with a first air outlet and a second air outlet with different air outlet directions. A volute capable of reciprocating rotation between a first position and a second position is arranged in the casing. Based on the target wind outlet direction and the current wind outlet direction, the target position of the volute is determined. Therefore, the volute is controlled to rotate to the target position, so that the air conditioner can discharge air from the first air port or the second air port. The rotation of the volute can realize the change of the wind outlet direction. The air outlet of the volute can pass through the corresponding air port smoothly. Moreover, based on the target position of the volute, the adaptive rotation of the sealing baffle is controlled to reduce the phenomenon of air leakage. In this way, the stability and uniformity of the air outlet airflow are improved, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the air supply effect.

可选地，结合图10所示，本公开实施例提供了另一种用于控制空调的方法，包括：Optionally, with reference to what is shown in FIG. 10 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling an air conditioner, including:

S712，空调根据目标出风方向和当前出风方向，确定风向的切换情况。S712. The air conditioner determines the switching situation of the wind direction according to the target wind outlet direction and the current air outlet direction.

S722，空调根据风向的切换情况，确定蜗壳的目标位置。S722. The air conditioner determines the target position of the volute according to the switching situation of the wind direction.

确定出目标出风方向和当前出风方向后，将目标出风方向和当前方出风方向进行对比。如果目标出风方向和当前出风方向一致，则确定不切换风向，蜗壳保持当前位置不变。如果目标出风方向和当前出风方向不一致，则确定切换风向。由于空调具有第一风口和第二风口，所以风向的切换具体是在第一风口的出风方向和第二风口的出风方向之间切换。根据具体的切换方向，确定出蜗壳的目标位置。这样，使蜗壳在目标位置上的出风能够满足风向切换的需求，即满足目标出风方向，从而满足用户对于风向的需求。需要说明的是，步骤S701和步骤S703的具体实施过程参见上述实施例即可，此处不再赘述。After determining the target wind outlet direction and the current wind outlet direction, compare the target wind outlet direction with the current current wind outlet direction. If the target air outlet direction is consistent with the current air outlet direction, it is determined not to switch the wind direction, and the current position of the volute remains unchanged. If the target wind outlet direction is inconsistent with the current wind outlet direction, it is determined to switch the wind direction. Since the air conditioner has a first air outlet and a second air outlet, the switching of the wind direction is specifically switching between the air outlet direction of the first air outlet and the air outlet direction of the second air outlet. According to the specific switching direction, the target position of the volute is determined. In this way, the air outlet of the volute at the target position can meet the demand for switching the wind direction, that is, meet the target air outlet direction, so as to meet the user's demand for the wind direction. It should be noted that, the specific implementation process of step S701 and step S703 can refer to the above-mentioned embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

可选地，S712，空调根据目标出风方向和当前出风方向，确定风向的切换情况，包括：Optionally, in S712, the air conditioner determines the switching of the wind direction according to the target wind outlet direction and the current wind outlet direction, including:

在目标出风方向和当前出风方向一致的情况下，空调确定风向不切换。When the target air outlet direction is consistent with the current air outlet direction, the air conditioner determines that the air outlet direction does not switch.

在目标出风方向为下出风的情况下，空调当前出风方向为侧出风的情况下，确定风向由侧出风切换为下出风。In the case where the target air outlet direction is downward air outlet and the current air outlet direction of the air conditioner is side air outlet, it is determined that the air outlet direction is switched from side air outlet to down air outlet.

在目标出风方向为侧出风的情况下，空调当前出风方向为下出风的情况下，确定风向由下出风切换为侧出风。When the target air outlet direction is side air outlet and the current air outlet direction of the air conditioner is downward air outlet, it is determined that the air outlet direction is switched from bottom air outlet to side air outlet.

当蜗壳旋转至第一位置时，蜗壳的出风口与第一风口对应，即与侧风口对应，此时空调的出风为侧出风。当蜗壳旋转至第二位置时，蜗壳的出风口与第二风口对应，即与下风口对应，此时空调的出风为下出风。如果目标出风方向和当前出风方向一致，则确定不切换风向。如果目标出风方向和当前出风方向不一致，则进一步确定目标出风方向与当前出风方向的具体方向。如果目标出风方向为下出风，而当前出风方向为侧出风，则确定风向的切换情况是由侧出风切换为下出风。如果目标出风方向为侧出风，而当前出风方向为下出风，则确定风向的切换情况是由下出风切换为侧出风。这样，基于目标出风方向和当前出风方向的对比情况，确定风向是否需要切换，并在需要切换时，确定具体的切换方向。以便精准控制蜗壳的旋转。When the volute rotates to the first position, the air outlet of the volute corresponds to the first air outlet, that is, corresponds to the side air outlet. At this time, the air outlet of the air conditioner is the side air outlet. When the volute rotates to the second position, the air outlet of the volute corresponds to the second air outlet, that is, corresponds to the lower air outlet. At this time, the air outlet of the air conditioner is the lower air outlet. If the target wind outlet direction is consistent with the current wind outlet direction, it is determined not to switch the wind direction. If the target wind outlet direction is inconsistent with the current wind outlet direction, the specific direction of the target wind outlet direction and the current wind outlet direction is further determined. If the target air outlet direction is the downward air outlet, and the current air outlet direction is the side air outlet, then it is determined that the switching status of the wind direction is from the side air outlet to the down air outlet. If the target air outlet direction is the side air outlet, and the current air outlet direction is the down air outlet, then it is determined that the switching of the wind direction is from the down air outlet to the side outlet air. In this way, based on the comparison between the target air outlet direction and the current air outlet direction, it is determined whether the wind direction needs to be switched, and when it is necessary to switch, the specific switching direction is determined. In order to precisely control the rotation of the volute.

可选地，S722，空调根据风向的切换情况，确定蜗壳的目标位置，包括：Optionally, in S722, the air conditioner determines the target position of the volute according to the switching of the wind direction, including:

在由侧出风切换为下出风的情况下，空调确定蜗壳的目标位置为第二位置。In the case of switching from the side air outlet to the bottom air outlet, the air conditioner determines that the target position of the volute is the second position.

在由下出风切换为侧出风的情况下，空调确定蜗壳的目标位置为第一位置。In the case of switching from bottom air outlet to side air outlet, the air conditioner determines that the target position of the volute is the first position.

如前文所述，蜗壳位于第一位置时，对应于空调的侧出风。蜗壳位于第二位置时，对应于空调的下出风。由于空调的风口分别为侧风口和下风口，所以风向也是在侧出风和下出风之间切换。如果由侧出风切换为下出风，则确定蜗壳的目标位置为第二位置。如果由下出风切换为侧出风，则确定蜗壳的目标位置为第一位置。这样，使蜗壳的目标位置与目标出风方向相对应，以实现空调的正常送风。As mentioned above, when the volute is at the first position, it corresponds to the side air outlet of the air conditioner. When the volute is at the second position, it corresponds to the lower air outlet of the air conditioner. Since the air outlets of the air conditioner are respectively the side air outlet and the down air outlet, the wind direction is also switched between the side air outlet and the down air outlet. If the side air outlet is switched to the down air outlet, the target position of the volute is determined to be the second position. If the air outlet from the bottom is switched to the air outlet from the side, the target position of the volute is determined to be the first position. In this way, the target position of the volute corresponds to the target air outlet direction, so as to realize the normal air supply of the air conditioner.

可选地，结合图9所示，本公开实施例提供了另一种用于控制空调的方法，包括：Optionally, as shown in FIG. 9 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for controlling an air conditioner, including:

S713，空调在蜗壳的目标位置与当前位置不同的情况下，控制密封挡板向贴合蜗壳的方向转动。S713, when the target position of the volute is different from the current position of the air conditioner, the air conditioner controls the sealing baffle to rotate in a direction to attach to the volute.

S723，空调控制蜗壳转动至蜗壳的目标位置。S723, the air conditioner controls the volute to rotate to the target position of the volute.

S733，空调控制密封挡板转动至密封挡板的目标位置。S733, the air conditioner controls the sealing baffle to rotate to the target position of the sealing baffle.

如前文所述，蜗壳的目标位置为第一位置或第二位置。而第一位置和第二位置又与侧出风和下出风相对应。如果目标出风方向与当前出风方向不一致，则相应地，蜗壳的目标位置与当前位置也不一致。密封挡板能够相对于蜗壳进行转动。当密封挡板向远离蜗壳一侧转动时，密封挡板呈打开状态。当密封挡板转动至贴合蜗壳外壁的位置时，密封挡板呈收起状态。当蜗壳固定在其目标位置送风时，密封挡板呈打开状态，以对第二风口进行密封，减少漏风。当蜗壳转动时，需要将密封收回，以避免对蜗壳的转动造成阻碍。因此，在控制蜗壳和密封板转动时，先控制密封挡板收回，再控制蜗壳旋转。待蜗壳旋转至目标位置后，再控制密封挡板打开至密封挡板的目标位置。这样，不仅通过控制蜗壳的旋转实现了出风方向的切换，而且通过控制密封挡板和蜗壳旋转的时机，还能避免密封挡板对蜗壳的旋转造成阻碍。从而保证了对出风方向的有效切换。需要说明的是，步骤S701、S712和S722的具体实施过程参见上述实施例即可，此处不再赘述。As mentioned above, the target position of the volute is the first position or the second position. And the first position and the second position correspond to the side air outlet and the down air outlet. If the target air outlet direction is inconsistent with the current air outlet direction, correspondingly, the target position of the volute is also inconsistent with the current position. The sealing baffle can rotate relative to the volute. When the sealing baffle rotates to the side away from the volute, the sealing baffle is in an open state. When the sealing baffle rotates to a position close to the outer wall of the volute, the sealing baffle is in a retracted state. When the volute is fixed at its target position to supply air, the sealing baffle is in an open state to seal the second air port and reduce air leakage. When the volute rotates, the seal needs to be retracted to avoid hindering the rotation of the volute. Therefore, when controlling the rotation of the volute and the sealing plate, first control the retraction of the sealing baffle, and then control the rotation of the volute. After the volute rotates to the target position, the sealing baffle is controlled to open to the target position of the sealing baffle. In this way, not only the switching of the air outlet direction is realized by controlling the rotation of the volute, but also the obstruction of the rotation of the volute caused by the sealing baffle can be avoided by controlling the rotation timing of the sealing baffle and the volute. Thus, the effective switching of the air outlet direction is ensured. It should be noted that, the specific implementation process of steps S701, S712, and S722 can be referred to the above-mentioned embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

可选地，密封挡板的目标位置有两个。在确定风向切换的情况下，当蜗壳的目标位置为第一位置时，密封挡板的目标位置为第三位置。当密封挡板位于第三位置时，密封挡板的底部与第二风口的第一边缘相抵接。此时，密封挡板将第一风口和第二风口分隔开，同时也将蜗壳的出风口第二风口分隔开，防止蜗壳的出风从第二风口泄漏出去。以便保证空调的送风效果。Optionally, there are two target positions of the sealing baffle. In the case of determining the switching of the wind direction, when the target position of the volute is the first position, the target position of the sealing baffle is the third position. When the sealing baffle is at the third position, the bottom of the sealing baffle abuts against the first edge of the second air port. At this time, the sealing baffle separates the first air port and the second air port, and also separates the second air port of the air outlet of the volute, so as to prevent the air outlet of the volute from leaking out from the second air port. In order to ensure the air supply effect of the air conditioner.

当蜗壳的目标位置为第二位置时，密封挡板的目标位置为第四位置。当密封挡板位于第四位置时，密封挡板的侧面与第二边缘相抵接。此时，蜗壳出风口的左侧与第一边缘抵接。在与密封挡板相配合后，能够使蜗壳的出风尽可能的全部从第二风口送出，减少流回壳体内的风量。从而保证空调的送风效果。When the target position of the volute is the second position, the target position of the sealing baffle is the fourth position. When the sealing baffle is at the fourth position, the side of the sealing baffle abuts against the second edge. At this time, the left side of the air outlet of the volute abuts against the first edge. After cooperating with the sealing baffle, it is possible to send out as much air from the volute as possible from the second air port, reducing the amount of air flowing back into the casing. So as to ensure the air supply effect of the air conditioner.

可选地，在空调运行时，第一横向导风板和第二横向导风板全部打开至最大角度，以保证最大进风和最大出风。可以根据用户送风需求，控制与用做出风的风口相对应的导风板摆动，以实现摆动送风或特定方向的送风。但原则上，控制与用做进风的风口相对应的导风板始终保持最大角度，以保证最大进风量。可选地，第一横向导风板和第二横向导风板的最大角度均为：横向导风板与进风方向平行时，横向导风板所呈的角度。Optionally, when the air conditioner is running, the first horizontal wind deflector and the second horizontal wind deflector are all opened to a maximum angle to ensure maximum air intake and maximum air output. According to the user's air supply requirements, the swing of the air deflector corresponding to the air outlet used to produce air can be controlled to achieve swing air supply or air supply in a specific direction. But in principle, control the wind deflector corresponding to the air inlet used as the air inlet to always maintain the maximum angle to ensure the maximum air intake. Optionally, the maximum angles of the first transverse wind deflector and the second transverse wind deflector are the angles formed by the transverse wind deflector when the transverse wind deflector is parallel to the wind inlet direction.

下面将具体介绍控制蜗壳和密封挡板转动的过程：The process of controlling the rotation of the volute and the sealing baffle will be described in detail below:

情况一：如图1所示，当前出风方向为侧出风，目标出风方向为下出风。此时，蜗壳位于第一位置；密封挡板位于第三位置；蜗壳的目标位置为第二位置；密封挡板的目标位置为第四位置。Situation 1: As shown in Figure 1, the current air outlet direction is side air outlet, and the target air outlet direction is downward air outlet. At this time, the volute is at the first position; the sealing baffle is at the third position; the target position of the volute is at the second position; and the target position of the sealing baffle is at the fourth position.

如图1和图2所示，先控制密封挡板逆时针旋转第一角度α，使密封挡板与蜗壳的外壁贴合。然后如图2和图3所示，控制蜗壳逆时针旋转第二角度β，使蜗壳转动至第二位置。此时蜗壳的出风口与下风口对应，蜗壳出风口的左侧与下风口的第一边缘抵接。然后如图3和图4所示，控制密封挡板顺时针旋转第三角度γ，使密封挡板的侧面与下风口的第二边缘相抵接。As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , first control the sealing baffle to rotate counterclockwise by a first angle α, so that the sealing baffle is attached to the outer wall of the volute. Then, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the volute is controlled to rotate counterclockwise by a second angle β, so that the volute rotates to the second position. At this time, the air outlet of the volute corresponds to the lower air outlet, and the left side of the air outlet of the volute abuts against the first edge of the lower air outlet. Then, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , the sealing baffle is controlled to rotate clockwise by a third angle γ, so that the side of the sealing baffle abuts against the second edge of the downwind port.

情况二：如图4所示，当前出风方向为下出风，目标出风方向为侧出风。此时，蜗壳位于第二位置；密封挡板位于第四位置；蜗壳的目标位置为第一位置；密封挡板的目标位置为第三位置。Situation 2: As shown in Figure 4, the current air outlet direction is downward air outlet, and the target air outlet direction is side air outlet. At this time, the volute is at the second position; the sealing baffle is at the fourth position; the target position of the volute is the first position; the target position of the sealing baffle is the third position.

如图4和图3所示，先控制密封挡板逆时针旋转第三角度γ，使密封挡板与蜗壳的外壁贴合。然后如图3和图2所示，控制蜗壳顺时针旋转第二角度β，使蜗壳转动至第一位置。此时蜗壳的出风口与侧风口对应。然后如图2和图1所示，控制密封挡板顺时针旋转第一角度α，使密封挡板的底部与下风口的第一边缘相抵接。As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 3 , the sealing baffle is firstly controlled to rotate counterclockwise by a third angle γ, so that the sealing baffle is attached to the outer wall of the volute. Then, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 2 , the control volute rotates clockwise by a second angle β, so that the volute rotates to the first position. At this moment, the air outlet of the volute corresponds to the side air outlet. Then, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 1 , the sealing baffle is controlled to rotate clockwise by a first angle α, so that the bottom of the sealing baffle abuts against the first edge of the lower air outlet.

可选地，α∈[40°，60°]，β∈[69°，89°]，γ∈[5°，25°]。α、β和γ的具体值都可以根据实际需要进行选择。Optionally, α ∈ [40°, 60°], β ∈ [69°, 89°], γ ∈ [5°, 25°]. The specific values of α, β and γ can be selected according to actual needs.
