The air humidity adjustment mode at least comprises a fresh air dehumidification mode and a fresh air humidification mode. The principle of the air humidity control device is that the control module judges and identifies the air humidity control mode to be executed currently, controls the operation of a refrigerant circulation system and/or controls the action of a reversing device, and meets the following conditions:
When the air humidity adjusting mode is a fresh air dehumidifying mode, the control module controls the operation of the refrigerant circulating system, the reversing device is controlled to communicate the fresh air channel with the heat exchange cavity where the evaporator is located, and the air exhaust channel is communicated with the heat exchange cavity where the condenser is located. The fresh air channel is used for conveying fresh air indoors, when the fresh air introduced from the outside passes through the evaporator through the fresh air channel, moisture in the fresh air is absorbed by a refrigerant in the evaporator, and condensed water is absorbed by an adsorption piece in the heat exchange cavity, so that the aim of dehumidification is fulfilled.
When the humidity regulation mode is a fresh air humidification mode, the control module controls the operation of the refrigerant circulation system, the reversing device is controlled to communicate the fresh air channel with the heat exchange cavity where the condenser is located, and the air exhaust channel is communicated with the heat exchange cavity where the evaporator is located. When fresh air introduced from the open air passes through the condenser through the fresh air channel, the condenser heats the adsorption piece close to the condenser, and moisture in the adsorption piece is evaporated and released into the entering fresh air, so that the indoor humidification purpose is realized.
When the humidity control device is initially operated, the control module can control the reversing device and/or the refrigerant circulation system to operate according to the initial mode so as to meet the requirements. Since the adsorption member has a limited capacity to adsorb moisture, the adsorption member has a corresponding limited capacity to humidify air. In some embodiments of the present invention, the control module further includes controlling the reversing device to reverse when the reversing condition is satisfied, so that the heat exchange cavity communicated with the fresh air channel is replaced with the heat exchange cavity communicated with the exhaust channel, and controlling the direction of the refrigerant flow to reverse.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the outdoor temperature is higher than the upper limit temperature, the outdoor temperature is in a high temperature dehumidification mode, and in this mode, the control module controls the operation of the refrigerant circulation system and controls the operation of the reversing device in the same manner as in the fresh air dehumidification mode, and the control module further includes adjusting the opening of the airflow adjusting portion and adjusting the exhaust fan and the blower according to the difference between the outdoor temperature and the upper limit temperature, so that the exhaust amount of the exhaust fan is greater than the air supply amount of the blower.
The rotating speed is increased through the exhaust fan, so that the air quantity of the exhaust fan is larger than that of the blower, and because the two paths of air channels have the same resistance, and because the air quantity of the exhaust fan is large, the negative pressure of the exhaust air channel is larger than that of the fresh air channel at the moment, and therefore, at the air flow regulating part 100, part of fresh air in the fresh air channel always flows to the exhaust air channel through the air flow regulating part 100.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the larger the difference between the outdoor temperature and the upper limit temperature, the larger the opening of the airflow adjusting portion 100 is reflected, so that more fresh air enters the heat exchange cavity where the condenser is located through the airflow adjusting portion 100.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the opening degree of the airflow adjusting portion 100 may be adjusted (for example, may be divided into 1 to n steps), and the opening degree of the airflow adjusting portion 100 is adjusted according to the difference between the outdoor temperature and the upper limit temperature, as shown in table 1.

TABLE 1
In summer dehumidification, as shown in fig. 4, the machine is started to judge whether the outdoor temperature is higher than the upper limit temperature, if not, the machine enters a fresh air dehumidification mode, and if so, the machine enters a high temperature dehumidification mode. Then judging the difference grade of the outdoor temperature and the upper limit temperature, for example, the difference is more than or equal to 3 ℃, then N1 grade, the speed of the exhaust fan is regulated, the air quantity is increased by Bi, for example, B1 grade, and then the air flow regulating part 100 is opened by a corresponding angle, for example, A1. The corresponding relation between the air quantity lifting proportion of the exhaust fan and the opening of the air valve is shown in table 1. And then returning at intervals of set time, and re-judging once according to the outdoor temperature.
The air flow adjusting part 100 may be implemented using an air valve.
In some embodiments of the present invention, during the high temperature dehumidification mode, the control module controls the reversing device to reverse and the refrigerant flow direction to reverse, and further includes controlling the exhaust fan and/or the blower to reduce speed. So as to reduce the pressure difference of the two sides of the blade of the airflow adjusting part 100, then control the motor of the two reversing devices to start, realize reversing, and then restore the corresponding rotating speeds of the exhaust fan and the blower.
After the airflow adjusting part 100 is opened, the air quantity at the condenser side is composed of two parts, one part is from bypass fresh air, the other part is from indoor exhaust of the indoor air return port RA, the two paths of air resistances are different, and the distribution proportion of the two paths of air quantity is also changed along with the change of the opening angle of the airflow adjusting part 100, so that the exhaust quantity of the indoor air return port RA is uncertain, and under the condition that the fresh air quantity fed by the indoor air supply port SA is fixed, the indoor air return quantity is possibly larger than the fresh air quantity, so that the indoor negative pressure is caused, or the fresh air quantity is obviously larger than the exhaust quantity, so that the indoor positive pressure is caused. In either case, a bad experience is provided to the user.
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, some embodiments of the present invention further include detecting an air pressure difference between the indoor air return port RA and the indoor air supply port SA, and adjusting the opening degree of the air flow adjusting portion 100 according to the air pressure difference, so that the air pressure of the indoor air supply port SA is greater than the air pressure of the indoor air return port RA and the air pressure difference is maintained within a set range.
In some embodiments of the present invention, a differential pressure sensor 101 is disposed at the indoor air return port RA to ensure that the air output of the indoor air return port RA is equal to the air output of the indoor air supply port SA or the indoor pressure is slightly positive (the air output of the indoor air supply port SA is slightly greater than the indoor air return port RA), so as to ensure that the indoor pressure meets the requirements.
When the outdoor temperature is low in winter, for example, -15 ℃, the heating capacity is insufficient, which is also a problem for all air conditioners. At this time, the temperature of the treated fresh air is lower, for example, the outdoor temperature is lower than-15 ℃, and the temperature of the treated fresh air is 15 ℃, so that obvious cold air feel exists. The temperature in front of the condenser is raised through mixing, so that the temperature of the treated fresh air can meet the requirement.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, the magnitude relation between the detection value Pi of the differential pressure sensor and the preset value P0 is determined
① Pi-P0> C, wherein RA exhaust amount is obviously larger than SA, the air flow regulating part is turned down by 5%, the air flow regulating part returns every Y minutes, and the magnitude relation between the detection value Pi of the differential pressure sensor and the preset value P0 is re-judged;
② The magnitude relation between the detection value Pi of the differential pressure sensor and the preset value P0 is re-judged by returning every Y minutes, wherein the Pi-P0 is 0< and the RA exhaust amount is slightly larger than SA, and the air flow regulating part is turned down by 1 percent;
③ The magnitude relation between the detection value Pi of the differential pressure sensor and a preset value P0 is re-judged by returning every Y minutes;
④ Pi-P0< -C, RA exhaust amount is obviously smaller than SA, the air flow regulating part is opened by 1%, the air flow regulating part returns every Y minutes, and the magnitude relation between the detection value Pi of the differential pressure sensor and the preset value P0 is judged again.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the outdoor temperature is lower than the lower limit temperature, the mode is a low temperature humidification mode, in which the mode of the control module controlling the operation of the refrigerant circulation system and controlling the operation of the reversing device is the same as the fresh air humidification mode, and the method further comprises obtaining a temperature difference between the air supply temperature of the indoor air supply port and the indoor temperature, and the control module adjusts the opening of the air flow adjusting part and the air volumes of the exhaust fan and the blower according to the temperature difference, so that the ratio of the air volume entering the heat exchange cavity where the condenser is located from the heat exchange cavity where the evaporator is located to the air volume entering the heat exchange cavity where the condenser is located from the outdoor air inlet is located is within a set range.
When humidification is carried out in winter, as shown in fig. 6, the machine is started, whether the outdoor temperature is lower than the lower limit temperature (for example, -5 ℃) is judged, if not, a fresh air humidification mode is entered, and if so, a low temperature humidification mode is entered. The difference between the air supply temperature Tsa of the indoor air supply port SA and the indoor temperature Tin is calculated, and the air mixing proportion, the air quantity of the air feeder and the air quantity of the exhaust fan are determined according to the difference, as shown in the following table 2. For example, tin-tsa=3°, the mixing ratio is 30%, the blower air volume is 1.3 times the set air volume at this time, the exhaust fan air volume is 70% of the set air volume, and the initial opening angle of the air flow regulator 100 is α1 °. Then the blower and the exhaust fan are regulated according to the corresponding air quantity, and the air flow regulating part 100 is started according to the corresponding angle, and check comparison is carried out.

TABLE 2
In order to prevent the situation that the air return quantity is more than the fresh air quantity and the indoor negative pressure is caused or the fresh air quantity is obviously more than the air exhaust quantity and the indoor positive pressure is caused during the low-temperature humidification mode, the method further comprises detecting the air pressure difference between the indoor air return port RA and the indoor air supply port SA and adjusting the opening degree of the air flow adjusting part 100 in an auxiliary mode according to the air pressure difference, so that the air pressure of the indoor air supply port SA is more than the air pressure of the indoor air return port RA and the air pressure difference is kept in a set range.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the detection value of the differential pressure sensor 101 is used to check whether the exhaust air quantity at the indoor air return port RA satisfies 90% sa≤ra≤sa, if yes, the opening angle of the air flow regulating portion 100 is unchanged, if no, the air flow regulating portion 100 performs angle adjustment, when the air quantity of the indoor air supply port SA is greater than +10% of the exhaust air quantity of the indoor air return port RA, under the condition that the rotational speed of the exhaust fan is unchanged, the opening degree of the air flow regulating portion 100 is increased, and more exhaust air enters the fresh air channel through the air flow regulating portion 100, so that the exhaust air quantity at the indoor air return port RA is increased.
If the air supply amount of the indoor air supply port SA is smaller than the air exhaust amount of the indoor air return port RA, the fresh air amount is smaller than the air exhaust amount, and the air exhaust amount is larger at this time in order to prevent obvious negative pressure in the room, the opening degree of the air flow regulating part 100 needs to be reduced until 90% SA is smaller than or equal to RA and smaller than SA is satisfied.
The control module further comprises a step of judging the dehumidification capacity (in a dehumidification mode) or the humidification capacity (in a humidification mode) of the adsorption piece in the heat exchange cavity communicated with the fresh air channel, and when the dehumidification capacity or the humidification capacity is reduced to a set limit value, the control reversing device is used for replacing the heat exchange cavity communicated with the fresh air channel and controlling the flow direction of the refrigerant to be reversed.

The control center judges the change of the moisture content at two adjacent moments (such as every minute), if D i+1-di is less than or equal to D, the change of the moisture content of the supplied air is smaller and is close to stability, and meanwhile, the control center indicates that the moisture in the adsorption material on the surface of the condenser in the fresh air channel is about to be completely released, then the control module sends a reversing instruction to the four-way valve, the four-way valve finishes reversing, and the states of the first heat exchanger 13 and the second heat exchanger 14 are changed (namely, the evaporator changes into the condenser, and the condenser changes into the evaporator). Meanwhile, the wind valve positions of the first reversing device 20 and the second reversing device 30 are changed, so that one-time humidification channel change is completed, and uninterrupted humidification in winter is realized.
In some embodiments of the present invention, in the dehumidification mode, the method for obtaining the time T required for saturation of the adsorption element in the heat exchange cavity communicated with the fresh air channel comprises calculating the time required for saturation of the adsorption material at the evaporator side according to the dehumidification speed, and controlling the four-way valve and the switching device to operate according to the time.

< Fresh air dehumidification mode >
And in the fresh air dehumidification mode, the fresh air channel is communicated with the heat exchange cavity where the evaporator is located, and the exhaust channel is communicated with the heat exchange cavity where the condenser is located. In this embodiment, the third connection port 203 of the first reversing device shown in fig. 3 is still in communication with the first heat exchange cavity 11 where the first heat exchanger 13 is located, the second connection port 202 of the first reversing device is in communication with the second heat exchange cavity 12 where the second heat exchanger 14 is located, and the first heat exchanger 13 is used as an evaporator, and the second heat exchanger 14 is used as a condenser for illustration.
At this time, the first reversing device 20 is controlled to communicate the first connection port 201 with the third connection port 203, and the second connection port 202 is communicated with the fourth connection port 204. The third reversing device is controlled to communicate the first connecting port 301 with the third connecting port 303, and the second connecting port 302 is communicated with the fourth connecting port 304.
The fresh air channel is composed of an outdoor air inlet OA, a first connection port 301 of a second reversing device, a third connection port 303 of the second reversing device, a first heat exchange cavity 11 (an internal heat exchanger is an evaporator), a third connection port 203 of the first reversing device, a first connection port 201 of the first reversing device and an indoor air supply port SA.
The refrigerant in the first heat exchanger 13 (evaporator) absorbs heat in the air, and when the air in the fresh air channel flows through the evaporator, moisture in the air condenses into water droplets, which are absorbed by the absorbing member of the evaporator, and the air entering from the outside is dried and then is conveyed to the inside through the indoor air supply opening SA.
The exhaust channel is composed of an indoor return air inlet RA, a fourth connection port 304 of a second reversing device, a second connection port 302 of the second reversing device, a second heat exchange cavity 12 (the internal heat exchanger is a condenser), a second connection port 202 of a first reversing device, a fourth connection port 204 of the first reversing device and an outdoor exhaust outlet EA.
The refrigerant in the second heat exchanger 14 (condenser) releases heat to the ambient air, and when the air in the exhaust passage flows through the condenser, moisture in the suction member of the condenser is evaporated, released to the air, and is brought out to the outside by the air flow discharged to the outside direction.
When the adsorption member disposed near the first heat exchanger 13 (evaporator) reaches saturation, the adsorption member disposed near the second heat exchanger 14 (condenser) is dried at the same time, as shown in fig. 10, the fresh air channel passes through the second heat exchange chamber 12 by controlling the reversing device to reverse, the air exhaust channel passes through the first heat exchange chamber 11, and the refrigerant is controlled to reverse, so that the second heat exchanger 14 is the evaporator, and the first heat exchanger 13 is the condenser. The wind entering from the outside is continuously dehumidified and dried by the adsorbing member adjacent to the second heat exchanger 14, and then is sent into the room.
The fresh air channel after the direction change is as follows:
the outdoor air inlet OA-the first connection port 301 of the second reversing device-the second connection port 302 of the second reversing device-the second heat exchange chamber 12 (the internal heat exchanger is an evaporator) -the second connection port 202 of the first reversing device-the first connection port 201 of the first reversing device-the indoor air supply port SA.
The exhaust channel after the direction change is:
the indoor return air inlet RA-the fourth connection port 304 of the second reversing device-the third connection port 303 of the second reversing device-the first heat exchange chamber 11 (the internal heat exchanger is a condenser) -the third connection port 203 of the first reversing device-the fourth connection port 204 of the first reversing device-the outdoor exhaust outlet EA.
< High temperature dehumidification mode >
As shown in fig. 11, the air flow regulating portion 100 is opened, and part of the fresh air in the fresh air passage enters the exhaust passage through the air flow regulating portion 100.
< Fresh air humidification mode >
In the humidification mode, the fresh air channel is communicated with the heat exchange cavity where the condenser is located, and the exhaust channel is communicated with the heat exchange cavity where the evaporator is located. That is, the communication mode of the fresh air channel in the mode is the same as that of the heating mode. As shown in fig. 12, in this embodiment, the first heat exchanger 13 is still taken as an evaporator, and the second heat exchanger 14 is taken as a condenser as an example. The first connection port 301 of the second reversing device is controlled to be communicated with the second connection port 302 of the second reversing device, the third connection port 303 of the second reversing device is controlled to be communicated with the fourth connection port 304 of the second reversing device, the third connection port 303 of the second reversing device is controlled to be communicated with the first heat exchange cavity 11 where the first heat exchanger 13 is located, and the second connection port 302 of the second reversing device is controlled to be communicated with the second heat exchange cavity 12 where the second heat exchanger 14 is located.
The first connection port 201 of the first reversing device is communicated with the second connection port 202 thereof, and the third connection port 203 of the first reversing device is communicated with the fourth connection port 204 thereof. The third connection port 203 of the first reversing device is communicated with the first heat exchange cavity 11 where the first heat exchanger 13 is located, and the second connection port 202 of the first reversing device is communicated with the second heat exchange cavity 12 where the second heat exchanger 14 is located.
The fresh air channel is formed by:
The outdoor air inlet OA is connected with the first connecting port 301 of the second reversing device, the second connecting port 302 of the second reversing device is connected with the second heat exchange cavity 12 (the internal heat exchanger is a condenser), the second connecting port 202 of the first reversing device is connected with the first connecting port 201 of the first reversing device, and the indoor air supply outlet SA is connected with the first reversing device.
The refrigerant in the second heat exchanger 14 (condenser) releases heat to the ambient air, and when the air in the fresh air channel flows through the condenser, moisture in the absorbing part of the condenser is evaporated, released into the air, and is delivered into the room along with the air flow to humidify the room.
The exhaust channel is:
The indoor return air inlet RA-the fourth connection port 304 of the second reversing device-the third connection port 303 of the second reversing device-the first heat exchange chamber 11 (the internal heat exchanger is an evaporator) -the third connection port 203 of the first reversing device-the fourth connection port 204 of the first reversing device-the outdoor exhaust outlet EA.
The refrigerant in the first heat exchanger 13 (evaporator) absorbs heat in the air, and when the air in the air exhaust passage flows through the evaporator, moisture in the air condenses into water droplets, which are absorbed by the absorbing member of the evaporator, and the air flow entering from the outside is dried and then discharged to the outside through the outdoor air outlet EA.
When the adsorption piece close to the second heat exchanger 14 (condenser) is dried, the capacity of releasing moisture is lost, and the reversing device is controlled to reverse at the moment, so that the fresh air channel is communicated with the first heat exchange cavity 11, meanwhile, the first heat exchanger 13 is switched to serve as a condenser, and the adsorption piece close to the first heat exchanger 13 continuously releases moisture into fresh air.
< Low temperature humidification mode >
As shown in fig. 13, part of the exhaust air enters the fresh air passage through the air flow regulating part 100.
