AIR CONDITIONER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18276469 titled 'AIR CONDITIONER

The present invention is an air conditioner that includes an input unit for subjective environment information, at least one sensor unit for indoor environment information, an environment control module, and a control unit for a deodorizing module based on the environment control information.

  • The air conditioner allows user-customized control based on the intensity of smell recognized by the user.
  • The deodorizing module operates in a first mode for low smell intensity and a second mode for high smell intensity.
  • This innovation increases the lifespan of the filter and reduces power consumption.

Potential Applications: - Residential air conditioning systems - Commercial HVAC systems - Industrial air purification units

Problems Solved: - Lack of personalized control in air conditioning systems - Short lifespan of filters in traditional air conditioners - High power consumption in air purification units

Benefits: - Improved air quality based on user preferences - Longer-lasting filters for cost savings - Energy-efficient operation for reduced electricity bills

Commercial Applications: "Smart Air Conditioner with User-Customized Deodorizing Control: Enhancing Indoor Air Quality and Efficiency"

Questions about Air Conditioner with User-Customized Deodorizing Control: 1. How does the control unit determine the intensity of smell recognized by the user? - The control unit determines the intensity of smell based on the environment control information input by the user and the indoor environment information detected by the sensor unit.

2. What are the advantages of operating the deodorizing module in a second mode for high smell intensity? - Operating the deodorizing module in a second mode for high smell intensity ensures effective odor removal and improved air quality in the indoor environment.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present invention pertains to an air conditioner, the air conditioner according to the present invention comprising: an air conditioner body comprising an air inlet and an air outlet: an input unit for inputting subjective environment information recognized by a user; at least one sensor unit that generates indoor environment information by detecting indoor environment; an environment control module that generates environment control information on the basis of at least one of the environment information input by the user and the indoor environment information; and a control unit that controls the deodorizing module one the basis of the environment control information. wherein the control unit determines an intensity of smell recognized by the user one the bases of the environment control information, controls a deodorizing module so that the deodorizing module operates in a first mode when the intensity of the smell recognized by the user is low, and when the intensity of the smell recognized by the user is high, controls the deodorizing module so that the deodorizing module operates in a second mode, and thus, the air conditioner has excellent effect of enabling user-customized control, increasing the lifespan of a filter, and lowering power consumption.
