Abstract

The faucet has a rechargeable battery (12) for supplying electrical power, where a thermal generator (3) is powered by the battery, and ceramic plates of the thermal generator are in direct contact with cold and hot water supplies (1, 2). A processor (13) is controlled by a control panel (14) to process data from a temperature sensor (8), where the processor regulates the state of the ceramic plates by using stepping motors so that a desired temperature range is achieved.

Description

Sanitaire tapkraan met nenerator voor elektrische energie.Sanitary faucet with electric energy generator.

De uitvinding betreft een sanitaire tapkraan welke vanuit een bedienings paneel bestuurd wordt. 5 De bediening van de sanitaire tapkraan geschiedt door een processor die volume, temperatuur en hoeveelheid van het te tappen water regelt. Teneinde een constante stroom water van de gewenste temperatuur en volume te verkrijgen worden in de toevoer leidingen druk sensors en in de uitstroom opening temperatuur sensors geplaatst De regeling van temperatuur en volume worden geregeld met ceramische elementen welke met elektrische stappenmotoren bewogen 10 worden.The invention relates to a sanitary tap which is controlled from a control panel. 5 The sanitary tap is operated by a processor that controls volume, temperature and amount of water to be tapped. In order to obtain a constant flow of water of the desired temperature and volume, pressure sensors are placed in the supply pipes and temperature sensors are placed in the outflow opening. The temperature and volume control are controlled with ceramic elements which are moved with electric stepper motors.

De elektrische energie voor de installatie wordt geleverd door een oplaadbare accu. De accu wordt middels een thermo elektrische generator van stroom voorzien. De thermo generator maakt gebruik van het temperatuurverschil tussen de warm water toevoer en de koud water toevoer wanneer er water uit de tapkraan vloeit.The electrical energy for the installation is supplied by a rechargeable battery. The battery is powered by a thermo-electric generator. The thermo generator uses the temperature difference between the hot water supply and the cold water supply when water flows out of the tap.

In het schema van fig.1 is (1) de toevoer van koud water, (2) de toevoer van warm water. (3) is de thermo generator welke tussen twee (4 en 5) met de koud en warm water toevoer aangesloten vaten geplaatst is. De vaten (4 en 5) zijn aan één zijkant open waardoor er een direct contact ontstaat tussen de toevoer koud water (1), toevoer de warm water (2) en de 25 thermo generator (3). De vaten (4 en 5) zijn doorverbonden met kraanhuis (6) waarin zich de ceramische elementen met hun aandrijving van stappenmotoren bevinden. Vanuit kraanhuis (6) loopt uitloop (7). In uitloop (7) is de temperatuursensor (8) geplaatst In aanvoer (1) van koud water is druksensor (9) geplaatst en in warm water aanvoer (2) is druksensor (10) geplaatst Thermo generator (3) is enerzijds verbonden met aarde (11) anderzijds met oplaadbare accu 30 (12). Accu (12) levert stroom aan processor (13). Processor (13) wordt aangestuurd door het bedieningspaneel (14) en verwerkt de gegevens van de sensors (8, 9 en 10)In the diagram of Figure 1, (1) is the supply of cold water, (2) is the supply of hot water. (3) is the thermal generator which is placed between two (4 and 5) vessels connected to the cold and hot water supply. The vessels (4 and 5) are open on one side, creating a direct contact between the cold water supply (1), the hot water supply (2) and the thermo generator (3). The vessels (4 and 5) are connected to the tap housing (6) in which the ceramic elements with their drive of stepper motors are located. Spout (7) runs from tap house (6). Temperature sensor (8) is placed in outlet (7) Pressure sensor (9) is placed in cold water supply (1) and pressure sensor (10) is placed in hot water supply (2) Thermo generator (3) is connected to ground on the one hand (11) on the other hand with rechargeable battery 30 (12). Battery (12) supplies power to processor (13). Processor (13) is controlled by the control panel (14) and processes the data from the sensors (8, 9 and 10)

Processor (13) regelt de stand van de ceramische elementen door middel van stappenmotoren zodanig dat de gewenste temperatuur en uitloopsnelheid bereikt worden.Processor (13) controls the position of the ceramic elements by means of stepper motors such that the desired temperature and run-out speed are achieved.

Wanneer via het bedieningspaneel (14) een stroom water van een bepaalde temperatuur 35 gevraagd wordt, dan wordt de temperatuur gemeten met sensor (8) en meten druksensors (9) en (10) de drukverschillen in de warme en koude toevoerleidingen en geven deze door aan de processor (13) welke via de stappenmotor de ceramische schijven op een zodanige manier versteld zodat de uitloopsnelheid en temperatuur constant blijft. Dit proces wordt weergegeven in fig.2 waarin tekening 1 voorziet dat een koudwater toevoer (B) drukval wordt gecompenseerd 40 1035475 2 door de beweegbare ceramische schijf (X) zodanig te verstellen dat er een grotere doortaatopening naar de kraanuitgang (C) ontstaat met een koudere mengverhouding tussen de warmwater toevoer (A) en koudwater toevoer (B) als voor de drukval. Tekening 2 van fig.2 5 voorziet dat een koudwater toevoer (B) drukstijging wordt gecompenseerd door de beweegbare ceramische schijf (X) zodanig te verstellen dat er een kleinere doortaatopening naar de kraanuitgang (C) ontstaat met een warmere mengverhouding tussen de warmwater toevoer (A) en koudwater toevoer (B) als voor de drukstijging. Tekening 3 van fig.2 voorziet dat een warmwater toevoer (A) drukval wordt gecompenseerd door de beweegbare ceramische schijf 10 (X) zodanig te verstellen dat er een grotere doortaatopening naar de kraanuitgang (C) ontstaat met een warmere mengverhouding tussen de warmwater toevoer (A) en koudwater toevoer (B) als voor de drukval. Tekening 4 van fig.2 voorziet dat een warmwater toevoer (A) drukstijging wordt gecompenseerd door de beweegbare ceramische schijf (X) zodanig te verstellen dat er een kleinere doorlaatopening naar de kraanuitgang (C) ontstaat met een koudere 15 mengverhouding tussen de warmwater toevoer (A) en koudwater toevoer (B) als voor de drukstijging.When a flow of water of a certain temperature 35 is requested via the control panel (14), the temperature is measured with sensor (8) and pressure sensors (9) and (10) measure the pressure differences in the hot and cold supply lines and transmit these to the processor (13) which adjusts the ceramic disks via the stepper motor in such a way that the outlet speed and temperature remain constant. This process is shown in Fig. 2 in which drawing 1 provides that a cold water supply (B) pressure drop is compensated for by adjusting the movable ceramic disk (X) such that a larger passage opening to the tap outlet (C) is created with a colder mixing ratio between the hot water supply (A) and cold water supply (B) as for the pressure drop. Drawing 2 of Fig. 5 provides that a cold water supply (B) pressure rise is compensated by adjusting the movable ceramic disc (X) such that a smaller passage opening to the tap outlet (C) is created with a warmer mixing ratio between the hot water supply ( A) and cold water supply (B) as for the pressure rise. Drawing 3 of Fig. 2 provides that a hot water supply (A) pressure drop is compensated by adjusting the movable ceramic disc 10 (X) such that a larger passage opening to the tap outlet (C) is created with a warmer mixing ratio between the hot water supply ( A) and cold water supply (B) as for the pressure drop. Drawing 4 of Fig. 2 provides that a hot water supply (A) pressure rise is compensated by adjusting the movable ceramic disc (X) such that a smaller passage opening to the tap outlet (C) is created with a colder mixing ratio between the hot water supply ( A) and cold water supply (B) as for the pressure rise.

Met het bedieningspaneel (14) kunnen temperatuur en uitloopsnelheid preset ingesteld worden. Thermo generator (3) kan uitgevoerd worden met een pettier element.Preset temperature and run-out speed can be set with the control panel (14). Thermo generator (3) can be equipped with a pettier element.
