Abstract

A faucet assembly includes a body, a pressure-stabilizing device, a temperature adjustment device, a flow-rate control valve, and a faucet end unit. The pressure-stabilizing device is disposed between a pair of cold-water and hot-water input passages and a pair of cold-water and hot-water output passages so as to permit flow of cold water and hot water from the cold-water and hot-water input passages into cold-water and hot-water inlets in the temperature adjustment device through the cold-water and hot-water output passages at the same flow rate even when the water pressures in the cold-water and hot-water input passages are different. The cold and hot water flow from the cold-water and hot-water inlets to a water discharge port at a ratio, which can be selected by rotating a rotary knob, thereby feeding a selected temperature of water to the faucet end unit. The flow-rate control valve is disposed between the temperature adjustment device and the faucet end unit.
As such, the temperature of water from the faucet end unit can be controlled independently of the flow rate.
