Description

智能多功能水龍頭 Smart multifunctional faucet

本發明係有關一種智能多功能水龍頭,尤指一種可於昏暗環境下藉由人體接近觸發而照亮並顯現出水龍頭所在位置的水龍頭控制技術。 The invention relates to an intelligent multifunctional faucet, in particular to a faucet control technology that can illuminate and reveal the position of the faucet by the human body's proximity trigger in a dim environment.

按,一般機械式操作的水龍頭大多是於其頂部位置設置一組旋鈕、長柄或是扳桿等構件,藉由順逆時鐘旋轉或擺動旋鈕、長柄或扳桿以驅動開關閥做出啟、閉水龍頭之出水口及調節出水量等動作。在操作此種機械式的水龍頭時,使用者必須以手部來扭轉操控旋鈕、長柄或扳桿以做出啟閉或是調節出水量等作動。在具體的操作控制時,由於使用者手部會接觸到旋鈕、長柄或是扳桿等部位,尤其是,若是將此種機械式水龍頭設置在公共場所時,更會造成細菌接觸感染與衛生方面等諸多的問題產生。 Press, most mechanically operated faucets are mostly equipped with a set of knobs, long handles or levers on their top positions. The clockwise or counterclockwise rotation or swing of the knobs, long handles or levers to drive the on-off valve to open and close the faucet. Water outlet and adjust the amount of water. When operating this type of mechanical faucet, the user must use his hand to twist the control knob, long handle or lever to open and close or adjust the amount of water. During specific operation and control, since the user's hand will contact the knob, long handle or lever, etc., especially if the mechanical faucet is set in a public place, it will cause bacterial contact infection and hygiene. And many other problems.

為改善此一缺失,相關技術領域業者,已然開發出一種非接觸式的感應式水龍頭,其係於水龍頭設置一組紅外線感應器及一電磁式控制閥,藉由紅外線感應器感知是否有物體進入其感測範圍,當使用者的手部進入其感應範圍時,則驅動電磁式控制閥來啟、閉出水口,以供使用者沖水、洗手或做其他用途的使用;惟,此種非接觸的感應式水龍頭的水流啟閉模式及開啟時間皆已被預先設定,以致若是要將非接觸的感應式水龍頭應用於一般居家使用時,將會因為使用模式單調而不適用於一般居家複 雜的多種使用模式。舉例來說,當使用者若是欲做需長時間開啟水龍頭的用水模式時(如洗滌蔬菜、水果、衣服或茶杯等使用模式),假設感應式水龍頭預定的開啟時間設定為6秒,由於上述洗滌使用模式都必須花費超過6秒的時間方能洗滌完成上述物件,由此可見,習知非接觸式的感應式水龍頭確實會因缺乏使用彈性而造成操作使用上的不便與極度的困擾。 In order to improve this deficiency, those in the related technical field have already developed a non-contact inductive faucet. The faucet is provided with a set of infrared sensors and an electromagnetic control valve. The infrared sensor detects whether an object enters. Its sensing range, when the user's hand enters its sensing range, the electromagnetic control valve is driven to open and close the water outlet for the user to flush, wash or use for other purposes; however, this non- The water flow opening and closing mode and opening time of the contact sensor faucet have been set in advance, so that if the non-contact sensor faucet is used in general home use, the use mode will be monotonous and not suitable for general home use. Miscellaneous multiple usage modes. For example, if the user wants to use a water mode that requires a long time to turn on the faucet (such as washing vegetables, fruits, clothes, or tea cups), suppose the preset opening time of the inductive faucet is set to 6 seconds. The use mode must take more than 6 seconds to complete the above-mentioned items. It can be seen that the conventional non-contact sensor faucet does cause inconvenience and extreme confusion due to lack of flexibility.

為再改善上述缺失,相關技術領域業者已然開發出一種如發明公開第200708677號『觸控式給水裝置』、發明公開第201233923號『具觸控及顯示功能的水龍頭裝置』以及發明公開第201734348號『感壓式觸控電子水龍頭』等所示的專利。該等專利雖然具備觸控操作啟、閉、調整出水量以及溫度調整等諸多功能;但是該等專利仍然具有如下所述的缺失: In order to further improve the above-mentioned shortcomings, those in the related technical field have already developed a device such as Invention Publication No. 200708677 “Touch Water Supply Device”, Invention Publication No. 201233923 “Faucet Device with Touch and Display Function” and Invention Publication No. 201734348 "Pressure-sensitive touch electronic faucet" and other patents. Although these patents have many functions such as touch operation to open, close, adjust water output, and temperature adjustment, they still have the following defects:

1.該等專利並無光源感測與照明等輔助機能的設置,所以無法於昏暗環境下自動照亮並顯現出水龍頭本體所在位置,因而造成在昏暗環境下操作水龍頭的不便與困難的情事產生。 1. These patents do not have the setting of auxiliary functions such as light source sensing and lighting, so they cannot automatically illuminate and display the location of the faucet body in a dim environment, thus causing inconvenience and difficulties in operating the faucet in a dim environment .

2.該等專利並無故障檢測資訊顯示之機能設置,所以無法辨識出水龍頭電磁式控制閥故障或是管路破損所致漏水情事,以致較容易造成無謂的水資源浪費情事產生。 2. These patents do not have the function setting of the fault detection information display, so it is impossible to identify the water leakage caused by the failure of the faucet electromagnetic control valve or the broken pipe, which is more likely to cause unnecessary waste of water resources.

3.該專利並無自發電與手勢操作切換出水量模式等機能建置,所以除了僅能依靠市電來供應電源而增加成本負擔之外,更加無法以操作簡易的手勢操作來控制水龍頭的出水量,因而造成水龍頭操作上的不便與困擾情事產生。 3. The patent does not have functions such as self-power generation and gesture operation to switch the water output mode, so in addition to relying on city power to supply power and increasing the cost burden, it is even more difficult to control the water output of the faucet with simple gesture operations. As a result, inconvenience and distress caused by the operation of the faucet.

Here, the specific outline of the touch-sensing part 220 can be defined, so that the user can easily recognize the location of the touch-sensing part 220 in a dim environment.

更具體的,本發明控制單元40包含微電腦控制器,以實現控制動作精準及節能等目的,當人體碰摸到觸摸感應部220(即金屬製水龍頭本體表面)時,經由共振式感應電路221檢測出人體觸摸之觸摸感應訊號,微電腦控制器再依據觸摸面積大小及觸摸感應訊號之週期長短來控制控制閥132的作動;其運作原理是利用人體觸摸時所產生的共振頻率偏移,取其偏移頻率△F來判定人體是否觸摸到觸摸感應部220。舉例來說,當觸摸感應訊號為小偏移訊號且其週期T介於400ms~700ms之間時,微電腦控制器則控制控制閥132做出開啟或關閉出水口120的作動。當觸摸感應訊號為小偏移訊號(即觸摸面積小),其週期T大於1000ms以上時,微電腦控制器則控制控制閥132做出調節出水量的作動。當觸摸感應訊號為大偏移訊號(即觸摸面積大)時,則以大偏移訊號與接觸時間(預設時間+△T)作為長時間(如60秒以上)開啟或關閉出水口120的作動。換言之,當人體觸摸到觸摸感應部220為較小面積時,則產生小偏移觸摸感應訊號;當人體觸摸到觸摸感應部為較大面積時,則產生大偏移觸摸感應訊號;小偏移觸摸感應訊號之週期介於400~700微秒(ms)之間時,控制單元40則輸出用以啟、閉控制控制閥13的控制訊號;當小偏移觸摸感應訊號週期大於1000微秒(ms)以上時,控制單元40輸出用以調節控制閥13之出水量的控制訊號;當大偏移觸摸感應訊號產生時,控制單元40輸出包含基本水流開啟時間(如6~30秒)加上增加開啟時間(如60秒以上)的控制訊號。 More specifically, the control unit 40 of the present invention includes a microcomputer controller to achieve precise control actions and energy saving. When the human body touches the touch sensing portion 220 (ie, the surface of the metal faucet body), it is detected by the resonant sensing circuit 221 According to the touch sensing signal of human body touch, the microcomputer controller then controls the operation of control valve 132 according to the size of the touch area and the period of the touch sensing signal; its operation principle is to use the resonance frequency offset generated by the human touch to select its bias. The frequency ΔF is shifted to determine whether the human body touches the touch sensing unit 220. For example, when the touch-sensitive signal is a small offset signal and its period T is between 400 ms and 700 ms, the microcomputer controller controls the control valve 132 to open or close the water outlet 120. When the touch sensing signal is a small offset signal (that is, the touch area is small) and its period T is greater than 1000 ms, the microcomputer controller controls the control valve 132 to adjust the amount of water output. When the touch sensing signal is a large offset signal (that is, the touch area is large), the large offset signal and the contact time (preset time + △ T) are used to open or close the water outlet 120 for a long time (such as 60 seconds or more). Act. In other words, when the human body touches the touch sensing part 220 with a small area, a small offset touch sensing signal is generated; when the human body touches the touch sensing part with a large area, a large offset touch sensing signal is generated; a small offset When the period of the touch sensing signal is between 400 and 700 microseconds (ms), the control unit 40 outputs a control signal for opening and closing the control valve 13; when the period of the small offset touch sensing signal is greater than 1000 microseconds ( ms) above, the control unit 40 outputs a control signal for adjusting the water output of the control valve 13; when a large offset touch-sensitive signal is generated, the control unit 40 outputs a time including the basic water flow on time (such as 6 ~ 30 seconds) plus Increase the control signal for the opening time (for example, more than 60 seconds).

The control unit 40 (such as a signal conversion circuit, a microcontroller, or a combination of a microprocessor and a driving circuit) is used to process the human body sensing signal and the photometric sensing signal. When the control unit 40 receives the human body sensing signal, it controls the photometric The sensing signal is processed into the corresponding photometric value and compared with the preset photometric value. When the photometric value is lower than the preset photometric value, the light source of the illumination module 30 is activated. The power supply unit 50 is used to supply power required by the human body sensing module 20, the light source sensing module 21, the light emitting module 30, the control unit 40, the gesture sensing module 23, the first control valve 13a, and the second control valve 13b.
