Air pump control system and method

An air pump control method, comprising:

• sending an inflating input signal, a deflating input signal or a deactivation input signal to a central control unit;
• sending a driving signal to a switching driving device by said central control unit according to said inflating input signal, deflating input signal or deactivation input signal so that said switching driving device drives a switching between two or more air passages;
• driving the switching between two or more air passages by said switching driving device, and
• sending an activation signal or a deactivation signal to said air pump according to an internal air pressure value of said inflatable body detected by an air pressure sensor and a pre-set inflating air pressure value;
• wherein, when said central control unit receives an inflating signal sent by said inflating signal input and when the internal air pressure value of said inflatable body detected by said air pressure sensor is less than the pre-set inflating air pressure value, said central control unit sends said driving signal to said switching driving device so as to drive the air passage switching device to switch to said inflating air passage, and said central control unit also sends said activation signal to said air pump to active said air pump;
• when the internal air pressure value of said inflatable body detected by said air pressure sensor is greater than the pre-set inflating air pressure value, said central control unit sends said driving signal to said switching driving device to drive the air passage switching device to switch to said deflating air passage, so as to deflate the air in the inflatable body to reach the pre-set inflating air pressure value;
• and when said central control unit receives said deactivation signal from said deactivation signal input, said central control unit sends said deactivation signal to said motor driving unit to drive the air passage switching device to switch to said closed air passage.

An air pump control system comprising:

• an air pump for inflating or deflating an inflatable body;
• a switching driving device connected to said air pump and adapted to drive a switching between two or more air passages;
• an air pressure sensor for detecting an internal air pressure value of said inflatable body and adapted to generate an internal pressure signal associated with said internal air pressure value and send said internal pressure signal to a central control unit;
• a first wireless communication module in communication with said central control unit;
• and
• a mobile terminal provided with a second input unit and a second wireless communication module in communication with said first wireless communication module, said second input unit being adapted to communicate with said central control unit via said second wireless communication module and said first wireless communication module, said second input unit being at least provided with at least one of an inflating signal input, a deflating signal input and a deactivation signal input, and said second input unit being adapted to send an inflating signal, a deflating signal or a deactivation signal to said central control unit respectively via said inflating signal input, deflating signal input or deactivation signal input;
• wherein said central control unit is connected to said air pump, said switching driving device and said air pressure sensor, and said central control unit is adapted to send a driving signal to drive said switching driving device so as to activate the switching between said air passages, and to send an activation signal or a deactivation signal to said air pump according to the internal air pressure value of said inflatable body detected by said air pressure sensor and a pre-set inflating air pressure value so as to activate or deactivate said air pump.
