Air conditioners are common equipment in daily life. They can not only adjust the temperature of the active area, but also purify the air quality in the active area. Generally, the air purification function of the air conditioner can be realized by purifying the filter element. Based on the material of the purification filter element, it generally corresponds to a replacement time of the purification filter element, for example, 300 hours. However, due to the poor environment of the air conditioner, it may only be used for 100 hours, and the purification efficiency of the purification filter element will be 0. At this time, continue to use it. The purifying filter element will not only not have the effect of purifying the air, but may also bring secondary polluted air. It can be seen that only relying on the basic calibration and replacement time of the purification filter element will have a chance of low purification efficiency or even negative efficiency. In the embodiment of the present invention, the server can communicate with the air conditioner to obtain a large amount of air conditioner operating data, so that the server can determine the purification working time of the air conditioner purification filter element according to the environmental information of the air conditioner operation, and the purification work time reaches the set maximum working time. When the time is long, the replacement reminder of the purification filter element is carried out. In this way, the reminder of the replacement of the purification filter element based on the environmental information can improve the air purification effect of the air conditioner.

Fig. 1 is a flow chart showing a method for reminding the replacement of an air conditioner purification filter element according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in Figure 1, the process of reminding the replacement of the air-conditioning purification filter element includes:

Step 101: Obtain the current working hours of the purification filter element sent by the air conditioner.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the server has a powerful data storage function and computing function, for example: a cloud server. Therefore, the server can exchange information with the air conditioner, obtain and store the operating data of the air conditioner.

The air conditioner can determine the current working time T _d of the air conditioner purification filter according to the recorded working time of the purification filter element, and then send the current working time T _d to the server, so that the server can obtain the current working time T _d sent by the air conditioner.

Step 102: According to the stored purification environment information uploaded by the air conditioner, determine the purification working time matching the current working time.

The server can exchange information with the air conditioner, so that the server can acquire and store the operation data of the air conditioner. The operating data may include: the operating parameters and operating time of each component of the air conditioner, the purification environment information obtained by the air conditioner, and the heartbeat and status data of the air conditioner communication, etc.

Wherein, the purification environment information of the operation of the air conditioner includes: at least one of fine particle concentration (PM2.5), dust concentration, formaldehyde concentration and the like. Among them, the environment in which the air conditioner operates is poor, such as the PM2.5 value is too high, so the purification consumption of the air conditioner purification filter element will definitely be higher than that in an environment with a lower PM2.5 value. Therefore, the corresponding purification consumption of the air-conditioning purification filter element running for the same time in different operating environment information is different, that is, the corresponding purification working hours are different. Therefore, the purification working time matching the current working time can be determined according to the cleaning environment information in the stored air conditioner operation data.

In the embodiment of the present invention, according to the stored purification environment information uploaded by the air conditioner, there are many ways to determine the purification working time that matches the current working time, including: according to the purification of the air conditioning purification filter element determined by the stored purification environment information Efficiency, determining the first cleaning working time that matches the current working time, and determining the first cleaning working time as the cleaning working time. Or, according to the wind speed operation information of the air conditioner and the environmental change information in the stored purification environment information, determine the second purification working time that matches the current working time, and determine the second cleaning working time as the cleaning working time. Or, according to the purification efficiency of the air-conditioning purification filter element determined by the stored purification environment information, determine the first purification working duration matching the current working duration, and according to the air-conditioning wind speed operation information and the environmental change information in the stored purification environment information, determine and The current working time matches the second cleaning working time, and the maximum value among the first cleaning working time and the second cleaning working time is determined as the cleaning working time.

Certainly, by adopting the method of determining the first purification working time matching the current working time according to the purification efficiency of the air-conditioning purification filter element, the acquired data is relatively small, so the calculation process is relatively simple and consumes relatively few resources. Stored various operating data of the air conditioner, including: wind speed and the corresponding working hours of the wind speed, PM2.5 value within the set time, formaldehyde value, etc. The operation information and the environment change information in the purification environment information determine the second purification working time matching the current working time. In this way, there are more data, and the calculation of the purification working time will be more accurate, so that the replacement reminder will be more timely, and the air purification effect of the air conditioner can be further improved. Alternatively, the first purification working period matching the current working period can be determined according to the purification efficiency of the air conditioner purification filter element, and the second purification working period matching the current working period can be determined according to the air conditioner wind speed operation information and environmental change information. Then, the maximum value among the first cleaning working time and the second cleaning working time is determined as the cleaning working time, so that the efficiency of air purification of the air conditioner can be further improved.

Step 103: When the purification working time is greater than or equal to the set maximum working time of the purification filter, a reminder to replace the purification filter is given.

Here, when the purification working time is greater than or equal to the set maximum working time of the purification filter, the server can remind the replacement of the purification filter. Wherein, the server may control the air conditioner to remind the replacement of the purification filter element. Alternatively, the server can remind the replacement of the purification filter element through the control terminal. Alternatively, the server not only controls the air conditioner to remind the replacement of the purification filter, but also performs the reminder of replacement of the purification filter through the control terminal, so as to realize the synchronous reminder of the air conditioner and the control terminal.

Preferably, the server can send a first state switching instruction to the air conditioner, and control the air conditioner to update the filter element replacement status bit to the replacement state, so that when the air conditioner determines that the filter element replacement status bit is the replacement state, it will perform a purification filter replacement reminder. And/or, send a replacement instruction to the control terminal, so that the control terminal will remind the replacement of the purification filter element.

Wherein, the server can send the first state switching command to the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner updates the filter replacement status bit to the replacement status, so that when the air conditioner detects that the filter replacement status bit of the air conditioner is the replacement status, it can control the replacement status of the air conditioner. The lights operate according to a preset scheme. For example, the filter element replacement status bit has two values, wherein "0" corresponds to the working status, and "1" corresponds to the replacement status. In this way, when the air conditioner receives the first state switching instruction, the filter element replacement status bit of the air conditioner can be changed from " 0" is updated to "1", so that when the air conditioner detects that the air conditioner's filter element replacement status bit is "1", the replacement indicator light in the control adjuster lights up, or flashes at a set frequency.

The server sends a replacement command to the control terminal, so that the control terminal will remind the replacement of the purification filter element. In this way, the control terminal can also carry out a reminder to replace the purification filter element.

Of course, it is also possible to only control the air conditioner to remind the replacement of the purification filter element, or to remind the replacement of the purification filter element only through the control terminal, or to simultaneously perform the reminder to replace the purification filter element through the air conditioner and the control terminal.

It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present invention, the server can interact with the air conditioner to obtain a large amount of air conditioner operating data, so that the server can determine the cleaning working time that matches the current working time according to the cleaning environment information in the running data, and according to the cleaning work In this way, the reminder for replacing the purification filter element based on environmental information can improve the air purification effect of the air conditioner. Moreover, the server has powerful storage and computing functions, which can further improve the speed and efficiency of replacement reminders.

In the above step 102, according to the purification efficiency of the air conditioner purification filter element determined by the stored purification environment information, determining the first purification working duration matching the current working duration may include: when the current working duration is greater than the first set duration, according to the stored According to the purification environment information, determine the air purification efficiency of the purification filter element within the set time; if the air purification efficiency is less than the set efficiency, determine the first purification working hours as the set maximum working hours of the purification filter element.

Based on the material and performance of the air-conditioning purification filter element, a first set duration and a set maximum working duration can be preset. Generally, the working hours of the purification filter elements reach the set maximum working hours and must be replaced. Due to the influence of environmental factors, the set maximum working time may not be reached, and its purification efficiency has reached 0, and it needs to be replaced. Here, a first set time period is preset, and within this first set time period, the probability of the purification efficiency of the purification filter element being 0 is very small. Therefore, the first set duration is less than the set maximum working duration, for example: the first set duration is 60%, 70% or 80% of the set maximum working duration.

In this way, the server can compare the acquired current working time with the first set time, and if the current working time is less than or equal to the first set time, the current working time will be determined as the cleaning working time. And if the obtained current working time is longer than the first set time, at this time, the probability that the purification efficiency of the purification filter element is 0 increases. Therefore, the server can determine the purification working time according to the purification efficiency of the air conditioner purification filter, including: obtaining The current environmental information index value Z ₁ of the environment where the air conditioner is located, and the environmental information index value Z ₂ before the set time period, and obtain the environmental information index difference [Z ₂ -Z ₁ ] between the two, when the environmental information index difference When the value is less than the set difference, it means that the efficiency of the purification filter element is very low. You can directly determine the set maximum working time as the purification working time that matches the current working time. Of course, if the environmental information index difference is greater than or equal to the set difference, the purification filter element can still perform purification and can continue to be used, and the current working time is still determined as the purification working time.

Therefore, the purification efficiency of the purification filter element can be reflected according to the difference of the environmental information index within the set time. The purification environment information of the operation of the air conditioner includes: at least one of fine particle concentration (PM2.5), dust concentration, formaldehyde concentration and the like. Therefore, the environmental information index value may be: PM2.5 value, dust concentration value, formaldehyde concentration value, or a weighted average of PM2.5 value, dust concentration value and formaldehyde concentration value.

For example: the server stores the air conditioner operation data, and the air conditioner operation data includes the purification environment information, thus, according to the stored purification environment information, the current PM2.5 value Z ₁ of the environment where the air conditioner is located, and the PM2.5 value Z 1 of an hour ago value Z ₂ , so that if [Z ₂ -Z ₁ ] is less than the set value, it can be determined that the air purification efficiency is less than the set efficiency, and thus, the first purification working time can be determined to be the set maximum working time of the purification filter element. Of course, when [Z ₂ -Z ₁ ] is greater than or equal to the set value, the current working time can be determined as the first cleaning working time.

In the above step 102, the second purification working duration matching the current working duration may be determined according to the air conditioner wind speed operation information and the environmental change information in the stored purification environment information. Since various operating data of the air conditioner will be transmitted to the server for storage, the operating data includes: wind speed and the corresponding working hours of the wind speed, and also includes purification environment information, such as: PM2.5 value and formaldehyde value within the set time Etc. In this way, the server can determine the second purification working time based on a large amount of stored operating data, including: according to the stored operating data uploaded by the air conditioner, obtain the working time of the wind speed corresponding to the wind speed of each level of the air conditioner within the current working time ;According to the purification environment information in the operation data, obtain the average fine particle concentration value of the fine particle concentration value of the environment where the air conditioner is located within the current working hours, and determine the time coefficient value (τ) corresponding to the average fine particle concentration value; work according to the wind speed The duration and the value of the time coefficient are obtained according to the formula (1) to obtain the second purification working duration.

t=τ×(α×t _h +β×t _m +γ×t _l )…Formula (1)

Among them, t is the working time of the second purification, τ is the time coefficient value, t _h , t _m , t _l are the working time of the first wind speed corresponding to the first level of wind speed, and the working time of the second wind speed corresponding to the second level of wind speed, And the working hours of the third wind speed corresponding to the third wind speed, α, β, and γ respectively set the coefficient values.

The general wind speed gears of the air conditioner include: high wind (H), medium wind (M), low wind (L), automatic wind, strong, mute, etc. Among the above wind speed gears, it can be defined that high wind and strong wind belong to the first wind speed H, stroke and automatic wind belong to the second wind speed M, and low wind and quiet belong to the third wind speed L. In this way, the server can determine the working hours of the wind speeds corresponding to the various wind speeds of the air conditioner according to the stored big data.

Of course, the air conditioner models are inconsistent, and the wind speed gears are also inconsistent. For example: including: high wind, low wind, mute, etc. Then high wind can be attributed to the first wind speed H, low wind and silence can be attributed to the third wind speed L, then according to the stored big data, the working time of the second wind speed corresponding to the determined second wind speed M is naturally 0.

Similarly, the server can also pre-set α, β, and γ according to different parameter information such as air-conditioning signals. For example: α=1, β=0.8, γ=0.6.

According to the material of the purification filter element, the model of the air conditioner, etc., the server can pre-save the corresponding relationship between the PM2.5 value and the time coefficient value τ. For example: the corresponding relationship between the PM2.5 value and the time coefficient value τ can be shown in Table 1.

In this way, based on the stored big data uploaded by the air conditioner, the average PM2.5 value of PM2.5 within the current time period can be determined. If the average PM2.5 value is 100, then the time coefficient value τ can be determined to be 1.2.

After determining τ, t _h , t _m , t _l , and setting α, β, γ, the second purification working time can be determined according to formula (1).

Table 1

In the embodiment of the present invention, the server may determine the first cleaning working duration, and determine the first cleaning working duration as the cleaning working duration. In this way, the amount of calculation is small, and the memory usage of the air conditioner can be reduced. Alternatively, the server can determine the second purification working time based on the big data, and determine the second purification working time as the purification working time. In this way, the purification working time can be accurately determined, thereby making the replacement reminder of the purification filter more accurate and reliable. Alternatively, the server not only determines the first purification working time, but also determines the second purification working time, and similarly, improves the accuracy and reliability of the purification filter element replacement reminder.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning working time is calculated based on the operation data uploaded by the air conditioner stored in the server, and the information interaction process between the server and the air conditioner can be updated in real time or periodically. When the interaction between the server and the air conditioner is interrupted In this way, the operating data of the air conditioner stored in the server cannot be updated in time, and thus, errors may occur when the purification working time obtained by calculating based on the operating data is long. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, it also includes: when the stored air conditioner is running When the time without updating the data exceeds the set time, and when the second cleaning working time is shorter than the current working time, the second cleaning working time is determined as the current working time.

The server has not received the operation data uploaded by the air conditioner beyond the set time, including communication mentality data and status data. At this time, the communication between the server and the air conditioner may be interrupted. At this time, if the second cleaning working time determined by the server is less than the current working time , and determine the second cleaning working duration as the current working duration. Of course, when the second cleaning working time is greater than or equal to the current working time, the second cleaning working time is kept unchanged.

Of course, when it is determined that the purification filter element has been replaced, the next reminder process for the purification filter element replacement is required. Therefore, when it is determined that the purification filter element has been replaced, a second state switching command is sent to the air conditioner to control the air conditioner to update the filter element replacement status bit to Working status, and clear the current working hours.

In the following, the operation process is integrated into a specific embodiment to illustrate the method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure.

Embodiment 1, FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a method for reminding the replacement of an air-conditioning purification filter according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2 , the process of reminding the replacement of an air-conditioning purification filter includes:

Step 201: Obtain the current working hours of the purification filter element sent by the air conditioner.

The air conditioner may determine the current working time T _d of the air conditioner purification filter according to the recorded working time of the purification filter, and then send the current working time T _d to the server, so that the server obtains the current working time T _d .

Step 202: Determine whether the current working time is greater than the first cleaning working time? If yes, go to step 203 , otherwise, go to step 206 .

In this embodiment, the first set duration can be preset to be 75% of the set maximum working duration.

Step 203: According to the stored purification environment information uploaded by the air conditioner, determine the PM2.5 difference between the current PM2.5 value Z ₁ of the environment where the air conditioner is located and the PM2.5 value Z ₂ one hour ago [Z ₂ -Z ₁ ] .

Step 204: Determine whether the PM2.5 difference [Z ₂ -Z ₁ ] is smaller than the set value? If yes, go to step 205 , otherwise, go to step 206 .

If the PM2.5 difference [Z ₂ -Z ₁ ] is less than the set value, it can be determined that the air purification efficiency of the purification filter element is less than the set efficiency, and step 205 is executed.

Step 205: Determine the set maximum working time of the purification filter element as the first cleaning working time. And go to step 207.

Step 206: Determine the current working duration as the first cleaning working duration. And go to step 207.

Step 207: Determine the first cleaning working duration as the cleaning working duration matching the current working duration.

Step 208: Determine whether the working time of purification is greater than or equal to the set maximum working time of the purification filter element? If yes, execute step 209; otherwise, the process ends.

Step 209: Send the first state switching instruction to the air conditioner, and control the air conditioner to update the filter element replacement status bit to the replacement state, so that when the air conditioner determines that the filter element replacement status bit is the replacement state, control the replacement indicator light in the air conditioner to flash at a set frequency.

Step 210: Send a replacement instruction to the control terminal, so that the control terminal will remind the replacement of the purification filter.

For example, if the control terminal is a mobile phone, the server sends a replacement command to the mobile phone, and the mobile phone can notify the replacement reminder of the purification filter element.

It can be seen that in this embodiment, the server can determine the purification efficiency of the air conditioner purification filter according to the stored purification environment information uploaded by the air conditioner, and then determine the purification working time that matches the current working time.
