With the above-mentioned structural composition and technical characteristics, the electric water control valve device disclosed in this creation can be used for assembly in the valve groove 11 provided in an existing rotary mixing faucet 10 (such as a dual-temperature faucet) in practical applications. , In order to achieve the functions of sensor-based water supply control and manual water mixing adjustment (for example, to provide adjustment of the temperature of cold and hot water). As far as the preferred embodiment is disclosed above, the operation of the sensor-based water-supply part is described as follows: As shown in Fig. 4 (the directions and end directions described below are based on the state drawn in the figure), when the blocking member 80 is pressed down against the upper end of the flow-through rod 542, it blocks the first chamber 401 and The communication relationship between the channels 544 in the rod. At this time, water from an external water source (not shown in the figure) sequentially passes through the second water flow inlet hole 212 (or the first water flow inlet hole 211) and the second water penetration hole 232 (Or the first water penetration hole 231), the mixed flow channel 221, the through hole 5410, the second chamber 402, and the first chamber 401 are in a static state. The first chamber 401 is defined as the first water pressure, and the rod inner channel 544 Is defined as the second water pressure. At this time, the first water pressure is the same as the second water pressure, so that the flap 541 is in a state of abutting against the end 223 of the dividing pipe 222 of the moving valve plate 22, so the mixed flow channel 221 and The through passages 224 of the movable valve disc 22 are blocked and disconnected. As shown in FIG. 6, when the sensing circuit 52 senses the control signal of the external human hand, so that the electric driver 53 controls and drives the blocking member 80 to move upward and separate from the upper end of the flow rod 542, the first chamber 401 and the rod The inner passages 544 will be transformed into a communication relationship. At this time, the incoming water can enter the inner passage 544 of the rod (as shown by arrow L1), which constitutes a pressure difference where the first water pressure drops and the second water pressure is relatively high. In this way, the flap 541 can be moved upward elastically, so that the mixed flow channel 221 and the through channel 224 of the movable valve plate 22 are transformed into a communicating state, so that the aforementioned water flow can pass through the through channel 224 and the water outlet perforation 233 in sequence. And the water supply outlet hole 213 flows out, thereby forming a water supply flow (as shown by arrow L2). As for the manual water mixing adjustment function, because the receiving end 41 of the linkage rod 40 is connected to the driving portion 32 through the synchronous member 44, when the water temperature control 30 rotates, it can be driven by the linkage rod 40. The seat 24 rotates synchronously to change the rotation angle of the movable valve disc 22. By comparing the water flow state differences shown in Figures 7 and 8, you can understand that as the rotation angle of the movable valve disc 22 changes, the mixed flow can be relatively changed. The water passage 221 and the first water passage hole 231 and the second water passage hole 232 of the fixed valve disc 23 are connected to the water passage ratio. In this way, it is assumed that the first water passage hole 231 and the second water passage hole 232 respectively represent The inlet channels of cold water and hot water have the function of adjusting the water temperature of the water supply flow.

According to the above, the electric water control valve device disclosed by this creation can be integrated into the valve groove 11 of the existing rotary mixing hydrant 10 in practical application, so as to directly achieve the function of electronically controlled water supply, allowing consumers to replace it. The partial faucet component method is directly upgraded to enjoy the electronically controlled water supply function, and the risk of human hand contact with bacteria and viruses is greatly reduced, which is quite in line with the needs of today’s epidemic prevention. The temperature switch 30 is used as a switch for regulating the water temperature, which is similar to the aforementioned electronic control. The water supply functions are matched with each other to form a complete mixing water faucet functional form. The reason why the temperature switch 30 is manually adjusted in this creation is mainly because the probability of manual contact after the temperature adjustment is determined is quite low. The reason is that it is not impossible for the temperature adjustment function to be changed to an induction control type, but for the industry, a significant increase in manufacturing costs will inevitably become a problem and resistance, and it is also difficult to compare with the internal water control components of the existing rotary mixing hydrant 10 Converge and cooperate.
