Embodiment 1

[0023] This embodiment provides an air conditioner, such as figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner according to this embodiment may include: a plurality of humidifiers 10 ; and a controller 20 for controlling the plurality of humidifiers 10 to perform humidification alternately.

[0024] In the air conditioner according to this embodiment, since a plurality of humidifiers are used to humidify alternately, in seasons such as summer when the air conditioner needs to be used for a long time, it can effectively prevent each humidifier in the air conditioner from operating the air conditioner for a long time. operation, thereby helping to prolong the service life of each humidifier.

[0025] Optionally, in the air conditioner according to this embodiment, such as figure 2 As shown, the air conditioner may also include a timer 30 for timing the working hours of the plurality of humidifiers 10; The plurality of humidifiers 10 perform humidification alternately. By using the timer...

Embodiment 2

[0047] This embodiment provides an air conditioner, the structure and combination of the air conditioner figure 1 with figure 2 The described air conditioners have the same structure, the difference lies in the control mode of the controller.

[0048] Such as figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the air conditioner includes: a plurality of humidifiers 10; and a controller 20, which is used to control the plurality of humidifiers 10 to alternately perform equal cycles during the operation of the humidification function of the air conditioner. humidify.

[0049] By making a plurality of humidifiers 10 perform humidification alternately and periodically during the operation of the humidification function of the air conditioner, the working hours of each humidifier 10 can be relatively balanced during a single operation of the humidification function of the air conditioner, which is beneficial to extend The service life of each humidifier 10.

[0050] In the air conditioner...

Embodiment 3

[0062] This embodiment provides an air conditioner, the structure and combination of the air conditioner figure 1 The described air conditioners have the same structure, the difference lies in the control mode of the controller.

[0063] This embodiment provides an air conditioner, such as figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner includes: a plurality of humidifiers 10; and a controller 20, which is used to control the plurality of humidifiers 10 to perform humidification alternately during the operation of the humidification function of the air conditioner, and each of the humidifiers 10 The humidification time is variable.

[0064] In the air conditioner according to this embodiment, the variable humidification duration may be several preset humidification duration parameters.

[0065] In the air conditioner according to this embodiment, the humidification duration may also be generated using a random function.

[0066] In the air conditioner according to this embodiment, t...

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of household electric appliances and discloses an air conditioner and a control method thereof. The air conditioner comprises a plurality of humidifiers, a humidity sensor used for sensing the environment humidity, and a controller used for controlling the humidifiers for humidification based on the sensed environment humidity. By adoption of the air conditioner and the control method thereof, the service lives of the air conditioner humidifiers can be prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to an air conditioner and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Current air conditioners can have a humidification function, and usually a humidifier is used for humidification. However, using a humidifier for humidification is not conducive to prolonging the service life of the humidifier. Contents of the invention [0003] The object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner and its control method, which can prolong the service life of the humidifier for the air conditioner. [0004] In order to achieve the above objects, the present invention provides an air conditioner including: a plurality of humidifiers; a humidity sensor for sensing ambient humidity; and a controller for controlling the plurality of humidifiers based on the sensed ambient humidity. Humidifier. [0005] The present invention also provides an air conditioner co...
