New description: [New technical field] [0001] This creation is about a faucet that automatically controls the amount of water, especially one that can sense the distance between the hand and the distance sensor, and automatically control The amount of water produced so that the user can control the amount of water. [Prior Art] [0002] At present, the faucet structure generally used, such as the new type M331 064 "induction water supply device" patent announced on April 21, 1997, discloses a casing and a casing. The receiving space and the corresponding hole are provided by an inductive control unit, a water control unit, a power supply unit, and a connecting portion, wherein the sensing control unit can sense the signal and control the water control unit. Opened or closed, and one end of the connecting portion is connected with the water control portion, and the other end can be locked to the faucet outlet by using a guiding seat and a locking ring, thereby achieving an external faucet and sensing water supply The device 〇[0003], as well as the new type M350638 "automatic induction hot and cold water mixing faucet" patent case announced on February 11, 1998, which discloses: cold water, hot water independent induction water supply, Chad According to the user's demand, the water temperature of the effluent is adjusted to the required state, and the water temperature state of the LED lamp is displayed to facilitate the user to identify it; the structural design is mainly based on the cold and heat connected to the faucet body. Water pipe The control valve is controlled by an independent motor, and the central processor of the control circuit drives the motor to control the opening and closing range of the water control valve to adjust the cold and hot water inflow, and is disposed on the periphery of the faucet body assembly table. The cold and hot water sensor detects the hand staying time 10120358^4^ A0101 page 3/15 pages 1012011435-0 M431250, and then fine-tunes the water inlet ratio of cold and hot water through the central processing unit of the control circuit.
