Air conditioner, data transmission method, and air conditioning system

An air conditioner comprising an adapter including processing circuitry coupled to a memory and configured to:

• control the air conditioner using a learning model and communicate with a server device that generates the learning model on the basis of operation history data of the air conditioner,
• wherein the processing circuitry is configured to:
• acquire the data every predetermined cycle from the air conditioner, the predetermined cycle corresponding to a predetermined time period;
• determine whether or not an amount of change between temporally continuous data of the data acquired by the acquiring is within a predetermined range;
• leave at least one of the continuous data and delete the other data in a case where the amount of change between the continuous data is within the predetermined range;
• and
• transmit the data after being deleted by the deleting to the server device,
• wherein, to determine whether or not the amount of change is within the predetermined range, the processing circuitry is further configured to:
• set a predetermined range that differs for each use of the air conditioner and determine whether or not the amount of change between the temporally continuous data is within the predetermined range according to use of the air conditioner.

A data transmission method of an air conditioner including an adapter including processing circuitry coupled to a memory, the method comprising:

• controlling the air conditioner using a learning model and communicating with a server device that generates the learning model on the basis of operation history data of the air conditioner,
• acquiring the data every predetermined cycle by the adapter from the air conditioner, the predetermined cycle corresponding to a predetermined time period;
• determining whether or not an amount of change between temporally continuous data of the acquired data is within a predetermined range by the adapter;
• leaving at least one of the continuous data and deleting the other data in a case where the amount of change between the continuous data is within the predetermined range, by the adapter;
• and
• transmitting the data after being deleted to the server device by the adapter,
• wherein the determining sets a predetermined range that differs for each season and determines whether or not the amount of change between the temporally continuous data is within the predetermined range according to a current season.

Air conditioning system comprising an air conditioner, an adapter equipped with a first processing circuitry coupled to a first memory and configured to:

• control the air conditioner using a learning model, and a server device that generates the learning model on the basis of operation history data of the air conditioner,
• wherein the first processing circuitry is configured to:
• acquire the data every predetermined cycle and time stamps at the predetermined cycle from the air conditioner, the predetermined cycle corresponding to a predetermined time period;
• determine whether or not an amount of change between temporally continuous data of the data acquired by the acquiring is within a predetermined range;
• leave at least one data and time stamp of the continuous data and delete the other data and time stamps in a case where the amount of change between the continuous data is within the predetermined range;
• and
• transmit the data and the time stamps after being deleted by the deleting to the server device,
• the server device includes a second processing circuitry coupled to a second memory and configured to:
• determine whether or not there is a deletion section in the data on the basis of the time stamp of each data in a case where the data and the time stamps have been received from the adapter;
• restore the received data and time stamps by generating data and a time stamp of the deletion section on the basis of data and a time stamp immediately before the deletion section in a case where it has been determined that there is the deletion section;
• generate the learning model on the basis of the received data and time stamps restored by the restoring;
• and
• transmit the learning model generated by the generating to the adapter, and
• the first processing circuitry is further configured to:
• apply the learning model received from the server device.
