Electric heater and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an electric heater and a control method thereof. The electric heater comprises a distance detection module for detecting the distance between a user and the electric heater, a temperature detection module for detecting the temperature of the environment, a motor, a heating module and an electronic control module, wherein the electronic control module is connected with the distance detection module, the temperature detection module, the motor and the heating module respectively; the electronic control module controls the rotation speed of the motor according to the distance between the user and the electric heater and the temperature of the environment, to adjust the air blowing speed of the electric heater and adjust the power of the heating module. Therefore, the electric heater can automatically adjust the rotation speed of the motor and the power of the heating module according to changes of the distance between a person and the electric heater and the temperature of the environment, so as to implement intelligent switching, so that the air blowing speed and the heating power can change with the changes of the distance between the person and the electric heater and the temperature of the environment, the user can feel most comfortable temperature, the comfortable sense of the user can be improved, the needs of users can be met fully, and the electric energy can be saved effectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of household electrical appliances, in particular to an electric heater and a control method for the electric heater. Background technique [0002] Existing electric heaters generally can only adjust 2-3 stalls. However, when the user is close to the electric heater, even if the low gear is turned on, the user will feel very hot. When the user is far away from the electric heater, Even at a high level, the user does not feel hot. That is to say, when the gear is selected, no matter how far the user is from the electric heater or the ambient temperature, the wind speed and heating power are fixed, and cannot be switched intelligently according to the user's needs. Moreover, when the wind force of the electric heater is too strong, the noise will be large, affecting the rest of the user, greatly affecting the comfort of the user, failing to meet the needs of the user, and causing waste of electric energy.

[0002] Existing electric heaters generally can only adjust 2-3 stalls. However, when the user is close to the electric heater, even if the low gear is turned on, the user will feel very hot. When the user is far away from the electric heater, Even when turned on high, the user does not feel hot

That is to say, when the gear is selected, no matter how far the user is from the electric heater or the ambient temperature, the wind speed and heating power are fixed and cannot be switched intelligently according to the user's needs.

Moreover, when the wind force of the electric heater is too strong, the noise will be large, which will affect the rest of the user, greatly affect the comfort of the user, fail to meet the needs of the user, and cause a waste of electric energy.
