The following describes a water outlet control method of the faucet according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to fig. 25 and 26. The execution main body of the method can be a controller in a water supply system, or a cloud or an edge server.

The water inlet of the tap can be connected with the water outlet 111 of the water purifier or other water supply systems, and the water outlet 111 of the tap is used for flowing out the water treated by the water purifier or other water supply systems so as to be used for taking water by users.

The faucet is provided with a rotary handle, the handle is pivotally arranged on the faucet body 210 of the faucet, the handle is internally provided with an elastic piece 360, when the handle rotates around the faucet, the elastic piece 360 deforms to generate elastic force, and the elastic piece 360 transmits the elastic force to the handle, so that the handle can be reset.

As shown in fig. 25, the water outlet control method of the faucet includes steps 2510 to 2520.

Step 2510, a first input is received from a user to turn the faucet handle in a target direction.

A first input to the handle is received from a user, wherein the first input is an input command to control the water outlet of the faucet.

When the faucet is in a water cut-off state, a user operates a handle on the faucet to rotate towards a target direction, the handle rotates to a target position, and a first input is received.

After the handle rotates to the target position in the target direction, the elastic force generated by the elastic piece 360 in the handle enables the handle to return to the initial position without the need of a user to perform the operation of returning the handle, so that the defect that the user needs to operate the handle to return after the handle is controlled to rotate in the related art is overcome, and the water taking process of the faucet is simplified.

In practical implementation, taking the case that the faucet is positioned on the front of the user as an example, the target direction can be the backward poking direction of the user operating handle, namely, the direction far away from the user; the target direction may also be the direction in which the user operates the handle to dial forward, i.e. the direction closer to the user.

Step 2520, in response to the first input, controls outlet 111 of the faucet to discharge water.

In this embodiment, a solenoid valve or other control valve may be provided on the water inlet and outlet line of the faucet to control the water outlet 111 of the faucet by controlling the opening and closing of the valve of the faucet line in response to a first input.

According to the water outlet control method of the faucet, the handle is rotated to the target direction to control the water outlet of the faucet to start or stop, automatic reset can be achieved through the elastic piece 360 after the handle is rotated, a user does not need to operate the handle for resetting, and the water taking process is more convenient and faster.

In some embodiments, after receiving the first input, further determination is made as to whether to control the water outlet of the faucet according to the water inlet temperature of the faucet.

It will be appreciated that the faucet inlet temperature is also the temperature of the water exiting the faucet outlet 111.

The target temperature is the set safe water temperature, is also an anti-scalding water temperature limit, and is water with the water temperature below the target temperature, so that scalding can not occur when a user uses the anti-scalding water; the water with the water temperature above the target temperature can be used by a user, and the user can be scalded.

In actual implementation, the target temperature may be 45 degrees celsius, or may be 50 degrees celsius, or may be set by a user according to requirements.

Taking the water making mode currently set by the user as an example of making hot water at 80 ℃.

After the water inlet temperature of 80 ℃ is higher than the target temperature of 45 ℃, and the user operating handle rotates to the target position in the target direction, whether the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled to discharge water is judged according to the received residence time of the first input.

The target time length is used as a time length judgment standard for controlling the water outlet 111 of the faucet, and the first input is divided into a first input that the stay time length of the handle at the target position does not exceed the target time length and a first input that the stay time length exceeds the target time length.

In actual execution, the operation of rotating the user operation handle towards the target direction until the stay time of the target position is not longer than the target time is called short dialing; an operation in which the handle stay longer than the target length is called long dialing.

It will be appreciated that the time that the handle stays after rotating to the target position in the target direction is different, the first input received is different, and whether to control the water outlet 111 of the faucet to discharge water is determined according to the different first inputs and the difference between the current water inlet temperature and the target temperature.

The current water inlet temperature of the faucet is not higher than the target temperature, the handle rotates to the target position in the target direction, the duration of the handle kept at the target position is shorter than the target duration, at the moment, the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled to outlet, the water temperature of the water flowing out of the faucet is lower than the target temperature, the water can directly flow out, and a user cannot be scalded.

That is, when the current water inlet temperature of the faucet is not higher than the target temperature, the user can control the water outlet 111 of the faucet to outlet by pulling the handle for a short time, and the handle can be automatically reset through the elastic piece 360 without manual reset by the user, so that the water taking process of the user is simplified.

In some embodiments, the stay time is not shorter than the target time after the handle rotates to the target position in the target direction, and the water outlet 111 of the faucet is directly controlled to discharge water.

It can be understood that after the residence time of the handle at the target position exceeds the target time, whether the water inlet temperature of the faucet exceeds the target temperature does not need to be judged, and the water outlet of the faucet is directly controlled.

In actual implementation, the user can set the water outlet temperature to 90 ℃ for cooking, and after the setting is completed, the user directly dials the handle for controlling the water outlet of the faucet so as to be used for water taking by the user.

The first input of the handle with the stay time not shorter than the target time after the handle is at the target position, namely the input instruction for directly controlling the water outlet of the faucet.

The user can realize controlling tap delivery port 111 to go out water under the different circumstances of tap water inlet temperature through dialling the handle for a long time, has practiced thrift the temperature regulation process when getting water to the handle accessible elastic component 360 automatic re-setting need not manual reset.

In some embodiments, the current water inlet temperature of the faucet is higher than the target temperature, the handle rotates to the target position in the target direction, and the duration of holding at the target position is shorter than the target duration, at this time, the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled to cut off, and the water with the temperature higher than the target temperature cannot directly flow out, so that the user is prevented from being scalded.

That is, when the current water inlet temperature of the faucet is higher than the target temperature, the user can not control the water outlet 111 of the faucet to outlet water by the short pulling handle, so that the user can be effectively prevented from being scalded.

For example, the water outlet temperature set by the first user is 90 ℃ and used for cooking, at this time, the second user is ready to wash hands with water, and the second user can not control the water outlet 111 of the faucet to outlet water at this time by short dialing the handle, so that the second user is prevented from being scalded by hot water at 90 ℃.

The short dialing operation of the handle in the target position with the retention time shorter than the target time is the quick operation of controlling the water outlet of the faucet, and a user can control the water outlet of the faucet by only short dialing the handle, and the water flowing out can be ensured not to scald the user.

The long-pulling operation of the handle in the target position is not shorter than the target time, so that the handle is a general operation for controlling water taking of the water outlet of the faucet, a user only needs to pull the handle long, the water outlet of the faucet is controlled under the condition that the water inlet temperature of the faucet is different, temperature adjustment operation is not needed, and the operability of the faucet is improved.

In some embodiments, the current inlet temperature of the faucet is higher than the target temperature, the duration of the handle remaining in the target position is shorter than the target duration, the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled to cut off, water with a temperature higher than the target temperature does not directly flow out, and a reminder message is displayed on the display 450 of the faucet.

The display 450 displays a reminder message including the current faucet water inlet temperature and a reminder to control the water outlet from the long-dialing handle.

The user can dial the handle for controlling the water outlet 111 of the faucet according to the reminding information of the display 450, and can dial the handle for controlling the water outlet of the faucet after performing the temperature adjustment operation.

In some embodiments, the current inlet temperature of the faucet is above the target temperature, the length of time the handle remains in the target position is less than the target length of time, the faucet outlet 111 is controlled to turn off water, water at a temperature above the target temperature does not flow directly out, and the respiratory light 460 of the faucet is controlled to flash in a target manner.

The breathing lamp 460 of the faucet flashes in a target manner to remind the user that the current water inlet temperature of the faucet is higher than the target temperature, and the user may be scalded.

In the embodiment of the invention, the breathing lamp 460 flashes in a target manner to prompt more conveniently and quickly, so that a user can receive a danger prompt without checking the current water inlet temperature of the faucet.

In actual implementation, the breathing light 460 of the faucet flashes in a target manner, wherein the target manner may be represented as at least one of: target blinking color, target blinking interval, target blinking brightness, and the like.

First, the faucet's respiratory light 460 blinks in a target blinking color including, but not limited to, red, yellow, green, and the like.

In this embodiment, the current water inlet temperature of the faucet is higher than the target temperature, the duration of the handle kept at the target position is shorter than the target duration, the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled to cut off, and the breathing lamp 460 of the faucet is controlled to flash with the target flashing color so as to remind the user that the current water inlet temperature of the faucet is higher than the target temperature, and the scald may be caused.

Secondly, the breathing lamp 460 of the faucet blinks at the target blinking interval.

In this embodiment, the faucet outlet 111 is controlled to cut off water, and the respiratory lamp 460 of the faucet may be controlled to flash at a flashing frequency of 4 times per second to alert the user.

Third, the breathing lamp 460 of the faucet blinks at the target blinking brightness.

In this embodiment, the breathing lamp 460 of the faucet blinks at a lower brightness in the standby state, and when the current water inlet temperature of the faucet is higher than the target temperature, the duration of the handle kept at the target position is shorter than the target duration, and the breathing lamp 460 of the faucet is controlled to blink at a higher brightness when the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled to cut off, so as to remind the user.

Of course, in other embodiments, the target blinking pattern of the breathing lamp 460 may also take other forms, which may be specifically determined according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the faucet is currently in a water out state, and a second input is received from the user to rotate the handle in a target direction to control the water outlet 111 of the faucet to cut off water.

In this embodiment, the faucet is currently in the water out state, at which time the user rotates the second input of the handle in the target direction, controlling the faucet water outlet 111 to turn off the water, and the faucet enters the standby state.

In actual execution, when the user needs to stop the water outlet of the faucet, the operation handle rotates to the target position in the target direction, the water outlet 111 of the faucet is not discharged any more, the water cut-off control process is simple, and the handle can be automatically reset after reaching the target position, so that the user does not need to perform reset operation.

In some embodiments, when the front faucet is in a water cut-off state, a third input from the user to the first trigger 420 on the faucet is received, and in response to the third input, the water outlet 111 of the faucet may also be controlled to discharge water.

When the front faucet is in the water outlet state, a fourth input of a first trigger 420 on the faucet is received by a user, and the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled to cut off in response to the fourth input.

It will be appreciated that the third input is a command to control the water out of the faucet, the fourth input is a command to control the water cut off of the faucet, and the user's first trigger 420 is either the third input or the fourth input, which is only related to whether the faucet is currently in the water cut off state or the water out state.

The first trigger 420 is installed on the faucet, belongs to a non-contact trigger, and can trigger an input signal by receiving a shielding signal within a target distance, so that the water supply system receives a third input and a fourth input.

The target distance is an effective distance that the first trigger 420 can receive the input signal, and when the area outside the target distance is shielded, the first trigger 420 cannot be effectively triggered, and control of water outlet and water interruption of the faucet cannot be achieved.

The target distance of the first trigger 420 may be set according to the category of the first trigger 420 and the use environment of the water supply system.

In practical implementation, the first trigger 420 may be a triggering device that emits infrared rays, and receives infrared rays that are blocked and reflected by a user through an infrared reflection principle, and forms an electric control signal in an internal integrated circuit, that is, a third input and a fourth input, so as to control the water outlet and the water interruption of the faucet.

Taking the first trigger 420 as an infrared trigger device and taking a use scene as a kitchen scene as an example, the target distance can be set to be 20 cm, the first trigger 420 is shielded within a 20 cm range, the control of water outlet and water interruption of a faucet can be realized, and the condition that other equipment in a kitchen causes false triggering to the first trigger 420 can be limited in an effective range of 20 cm.

The first trigger 420 is sensitive in triggering, so that the control process of water outlet and water interruption of the faucet is simplified, and the situation of false triggering can be effectively avoided due to the setting of the target distance, so that water resources are saved.

One specific embodiment is described below.

As shown in fig. 26, the water supply system starts to be powered on, and is in a standby state, the water outlet 111 of the faucet is in a water cut-off state, and when a user can take water in the following two ways.

Firstly, the handle is rotated, and the water is taken and input by the input handle.

The handle of the faucet is rotated in a first direction to a first target position, a corresponding electric control signal is generated, the handle water intake input is received by the water supply system, the water purifier is controlled to purify water and the electromagnetic valve is controlled to open in response to the handle water intake input, and water is discharged from the water outlet 111 of the faucet.

The handle is rotated to the target position, and the handle can reset by means of the elastic force of the elastic piece 360, so that user operation is not needed, and the water taking process is simple and quick.

And secondly, triggering the first trigger 420 to input the infrared water intake input.

The user activates the first trigger 420 and the water supply receives an infrared water intake input, and in response to the infrared water intake input, controls the water purifier to purify water and the solenoid valve to open, and the faucet outlet 111 discharges water.

The first trigger 420 needs to be triggered within the target distance range to be effectively triggered, and the non-contact triggering process is simple and quick, and can also effectively avoid misoperation.

Correspondingly, when the water outlet 111 of the current faucet is in a water outlet state, a user can control the water outlet 111 of the faucet to cut off water by rotating the handle in a first direction and outputting the water-cut-off input of the handle or by shielding the first trigger 420 and inputting the infrared water-cut-off input.

The user can control the tap to quantitatively discharge water by operating the first sensor 440.

In particular, a user's quantitative key input to the first sensor 440 on the handle is received, and the water tap's water yield gear is adjusted in response to the quantitative key input.

Taking the example of the quantitative input of the key with the dwell time of the first sensor 440 not exceeding the third target time, the single gear shift of the quantitative water outlet gear of the faucet is controlled, and the current quantitative water outlet gear is displayed on the display screen 450.

The user inputs the key quantitative input for the first time by the first sensor 440, displays a first quantitative gear of quantitative water output on the display screen 450, inputs the key quantitative input for the second time, displays a second quantitative gear of quantitative water output on the display screen 450, inputs the key quantitative input for the third time, and displays a third quantitative gear of quantitative water output on the display screen 450.

The user can also input the key quantitative input to the first sensor 440 again, control to enter the self-defined quantitative gear, and the user can adjust the self-defined quantitative water outlet gear through the display screen 450 and the first sensor 440.

After the user finishes the control of the quantitative water outlet gear, the user can rotate the handle in the first direction to output the handle water taking input or shelter the first trigger 420 to input the infrared water taking input, so that the water outlet 111 of the faucet is controlled.

The user can also control the water outlet temperature gear of the faucet by rotating the handle in the second direction.

In particular, a user's quantitative input of a handle is received, and a water outlet temperature gear of the faucet is adjusted in response to the quantitative input of the handle.
