Air conditioning control device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To perform a controlling operation of an air conditioning temperature in correspondence with an amount of movement of a person by a method wherein the number of peak values per unit time of output signals of a noncontact temperature sensor for use in detecting a presence of a human body is counted and an air conditioning temperature is controlled in response to its output values. CONSTITUTION:A noncontact temperature sensor 3 for use in detecting a presence of a human body 2 is arranged at a front surface of an indoor unit 1, and then an interior of a room is scanned. When an amount of movement in the room is increased during a unit time T for scanning from one end of the room to the other end of the room, the noncontact temperature sensor 3 may detect a human body 2 by several times during its rotation, resulting in that several peak values are generated in the output signals. A set temperature of the air conditioning temperature is decreased in response to the number of peak values of the output signals.
