Abstract
An air pump control system includes an air pump for inflating or deflating an inflatable body; a switching driving device connected to the air pump for driving the switching between two or more air passages; and an air pressure sensor for detecting an internal air pressure value of the inflatable body, and sending an internal pressure signal to a central control unit, which is connected to the air pump, the switching driving device, and the air pressure sensor. The central control unit sends a driving signal to the switching driving device to activate the switching between the air passages, and sends an activation or deactivation signal to the air pump according to the detected internal air pressure value and a pre-set inflating air pressure value, to control the activation or deactivation of the air pump. An air pump control method adapted to the above air pump control system is provided.
