El aparato electrónico compacto mezclador de agua comprende dos electro válvulas proporcionales. Se prevén dos ramales, uno de agua fría y otro de agua caliente provisto cada uno de ellos de una electro válvula proporcional. La entrada de cada electro válvula proporcional se conecta a un suministro de agua; concretamente, Ia entrada de una electro válvula proporcional
se conecta a un suministro de agua fría y Ia entrada de Ia otra válvula proporcional se conecta a un suministro de agua caliente, de forma que el aparato pueda, a partir de Ia demanda del usuario al controlador electrónico a través del interfaz, obtener Ia mezcla demandada. Las salidas de las electro válvulas proporcionales están conectadas entre sí y desde allí enlazan con el punto de consumo donde se obtiene el agua mezclada resultante demandada por el usuario.The compact electronic water mixer apparatus comprises two proportional electro valves. Two branches are provided, one of cold water and another of hot water each provided with a proportional electro valve.

Antecedentes de Ia invención Actualmente, se conocen varios dispositivos o medios para mezclar dos flujos de agua (fría y caliente). Se conocen dispositivos mezcladores mecánicos de control de temperatura y caudal, como por ejemplo el tradicional grifo mezclador "monomando" o "bimando"; dispositivos mezcladores electrónicos que accionan un mecanismo de mezcla por detección de proximidad del usuario, a través de un sensor de proximidad, etc.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Currently, several devices or means for mixing two water flows (cold and hot) are known. Mechanical mixing devices for temperature and flow control are known, such as the traditional mixer tap "single lever" or "bimando"; electronic mixing devices that drive a mixing mechanism by user proximity detection, through a proximity sensor, etc.
Los dispositivos mezcladores anteriormente citados presentan diversos inconvenientes que se describen seguidamente.The aforementioned mixing devices have various drawbacks that are described below.
Una lentitud de respuesta e imprecisión en las transacciones de demanda de Ia mezcla (Io que implica un despilfarro en el consumo de agua). Otro inconveniente que presentan los dispositivos mezcladores mecánicos tradicionales reside en sus notables dimensiones, Io que frecuentemente contribuye a un acabado del punto de consumo inadecuado, ya que es necesario habilitar órganos de maniobra, bien sea montados en el cuerpo del surtidor, bien sea dispuestos en batería. Por Io que se refiere a los dispositivos electrónicos que accionan el mecanismo por detección de proximidad del usuario, dichos dispositivos proporcionan agua mezclada a valores de temperatura y caudal prefijados e inalterables, privando al usuario de poder variar las consignas de caudal y temperatura a voluntad, por Io que carecen de interactuación con el usuario.
Descripción de Ia invenciónA slow response and inaccuracy in demand transactions of the mixture (which implies a waste of water consumption). Another drawback presented by traditional mechanical mixing devices resides in their remarkable dimensions, which frequently contributes to a finishing of the point of inadequate consumption, since it is necessary to enable maneuvering organs, either mounted on the body of the dispenser, or arranged in drums. As regards the electronic devices that actuate the mechanism by user proximity detection, said devices provide mixed water at predetermined and unalterable temperature and flow values, depriving the user of being able to vary the flow and temperature setpoints at will, Therefore, they lack user interaction. Description of the invention
El aparato electrónico compacto mezclador de agua objeto de Ia invención es aplicable a puntos de consumo provistos de una conducción de alimentación de agua fría y de una conducción de alimentación de agua caliente. El aparato se caracteriza por comprender unos medios de control electrónico que mediante un interfaz táctil accionable a voluntad por el usuario controla el caudal y temperatura de agua mezclada.The compact electronic water mixer apparatus object of the invention is applicable to consumption points provided with a cold water supply line and a hot water supply line. The apparatus is characterized by comprising electronic control means which, by means of a touch interface operable at will by the user, control the flow and temperature of mixed water.
Es también característico del aparato de Ia invención el hecho de que los medios de control electrónico comprenden un controlador electrónico que actúa sobre una primera electro válvula proporcional montada en Ia conducción de alimentación de agua fría y una segunda electro válvula proporcional montada en Ia conducción de alimentación de agua caliente. De acuerdo con otra característica de Ia invención, Ia entrada de Ia primera electro válvula proporcional recibe Ia conducción de alimentación de agua fría, en tanto que Ia entrada de Ia segunda electro válvula proporcional recibe Ia conducción de alimentación de agua caliente, estando las salidas de las electro válvulas proporcionales unidas entre sí, desde donde se realiza Ia alimentación del caño del punto de consumo.Also characteristic of the apparatus of the invention is the fact that the electronic control means comprise an electronic controller that acts on a first proportional electro valve mounted in the cold water supply line and a second proportional electro valve mounted in the supply line. of hot water. According to another characteristic of the invention, the input of the first proportional electro valve receives the cold water supply line, while the input of the second proportional electro valve receives the hot water supply line, the outputs being the proportional electro valves connected to each other, from where the feeding of the spout of the consumption point is carried out.
Otra característica de Ia invención consiste en que como mínimo un interfaz actúa sobre un controlador electrónico.Another feature of the invention is that at least one interface acts on an electronic controller.
El aparato electrónico compacto mezclador de agua objeto de Ia invención está previsto para que se obtenga un control preciso, estable, dependiente de Ia presión de entrada en cada ramal, y rápido de respuesta, es decir, de respuesta instantánea ante una variación de estado del aparato ante una demanda del usuario. De este modo se consigue un ahorro en el consumo de agua, reduciéndose en gran medida el anteriormente mencionado despilfarro de agua en Ia acción de concreción de caudal y temperatura.The compact electronic water mixer apparatus object of the invention is provided so that a precise, stable control is obtained, dependent on the inlet pressure in each branch, and rapid response, that is, instantaneous response to a variation in the state of the apparatus before a user demand.

Además, el aparato electrónico compacto mezclador de agua de Ia invención no precisa de dichos mandos, pasando a ser el tradicional grifo un simple caño o surtidor de agua mezclada, a valores de temperatura y caudal establecidos por el usuario mediante el interfaz táctil.
El aparato de Ia invención ofrece un nuevo control de temperatura y caudal para un punto de consumo de agua con el que se consigue un control rápido, preciso, dependiente de Ia presión de entrada pero estable sobre Ia temperatura y caudal de salida, si Ia presión y temperatura de entrada de cada alimentación de agua son estables.

The apparatus of the invention offers a new temperature and flow control for a point of water consumption with which a fast, precise control is achieved, dependent on the inlet pressure but stable on the outlet temperature and flow, if the pressure and inlet temperature of each water feed are stable. In this aspect, the existing water mixing devices have a slow response and inaccuracy in the demand transactions of the mixture, with the consequent energy waste that this entails.

En dichos dibujos: Ia Fig. 1 es una representación esquemática del aparato de Ia invención; y Ia Fig. 2, es una vista esquemática en perspectiva del aparato de Ia invención aplicado a un punto de consumo.In the figures of the drawing sheet it is represented by way of non-limiting example, an embodiment of the compact electronic water mixing apparatus object of the invention. In said drawings: Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of the apparatus of the invention; and Fig. 2, is a schematic perspective view of the apparatus of the invention applied to a consumption point.
Descripción detallada del ejemplo de realizaciónDetailed description of the embodiment example
El aparato electrónico compacto mezclador de agua que como ejem- pío de realización se describe comprende dos electro válvulas proporcionales, una electro válvula proporcional Vf para actuar sobre el agua fría y otra electro válvula proporcional Vc para actuar sobre el agua caliente, unidas entre sí a Ia salida de ambas (ver Fig. 1). Las electro válvulas tienen su entrada conectada a una conducción de agua fría y a una conducción de agua caliente respecti- vamente. El funcionamiento de este aparato es tal que, al demandar el usuario un caudal a una temperatura determinada a través del interfaz /n, el controla- dor electrónico Ce, posiciona Ia electro válvula proporcional de agua fría Vf y Ia electro válvula proporcional de agua caliente Vc, de modo que permiten el paso de agua fría y caliente en unos caudales adecuados para obtener el caudal y temperatura de agua mezclada demandados por el usuario. El caudal mezclado resultante que se obtiene a través del caño de salida Cs es de aumento y disminución gradual; es decir, a cada actuación del usuario sobre el
interfaz /π para aumentar o disminuir el caudal de salida, se obtendrá un salto de caudal según Io demandado.The compact electronic water mixing apparatus which, as an exemplary embodiment, is described comprises two proportional electro valves, a proportional electro valve Vf for acting on the cold water and another proportional electro valve Vc for acting on the hot water, joined together to The output of both (see Fig. 1). The electro valves have their input connected to a cold water line and a hot water line respectively. The operation of this apparatus is such that, when the user demands a flow at a certain temperature through the interface / n, the electronic controller Ce, positions the proportional electrovalve of cold water Vf and the proportional electrovalve of hot water Vc, so that they allow the passage of cold and hot water in adequate flows to obtain the flow and temperature of mixed water demanded by the user. The resulting mixed flow rate obtained through the outlet pipe Cs is of gradual increase and decrease; that is to say, to each action of the user on the interface / π to increase or decrease the output flow, a flow jump will be obtained according to the demand.
Para cada punto de trabajo de caudal, es posible variar Ia temperatura de salida del agua del caño de salida Cs. Esta variación será realizada me- diante saltos de temperatura tan grandes/pequeños como se deseen. La técnica de variación será de forma que si el usuario, a través del interfaz In, demanda mayor temperatura de salida, el controlador electrónico Ce, reposicio- na Ia electro válvula proporcional de agua caliente Vc, de forma que su apertura aumente, mientras que Ia electro válvula proporcional de agua fría Vf reali- zara una disminución de su apertura, y viceversa cuando el usuario requiera una disminución de temperatura del agua del caño de salida Cs.For each flow work point, it is possible to vary the water outlet temperature of the outlet pipe Cs. This variation will be carried out by temperature jumps as large / small as desired. The variation technique will be such that if the user, through the In interface, demands a higher output temperature, the electronic controller Ce, repositions the proportional electro valve of hot water Vc, so that its opening increases, while The proportional electro valve of cold water Vf will make a decrease in its opening, and vice versa when the user requires a decrease in the water temperature of the outlet pipe Cs.
Es decir, Ia respuesta del sistema ante una demanda de aumento de temperatura será abrir un x % Ia electro válvula proporcional de agua caliente y cerrar y % Ia electro válvula proporcional de agua fría, pudiendo ser x e y de igual valor o no. El valor de x e y será el que determinará Ia variación de temperatura del agua del caño de salida Cs para cada demanda de aumento o disminución de temperatura.That is, the response of the system to a demand for temperature increase will be to open x% the proportional electro valve of hot water and close and% the electro proportional valve of cold water, being able to be x e y of equal value or not. The value of x and y will be the one that will determine the temperature variation of the water of the outlet pipe Cs for each demand for temperature increase or decrease.
De esta forma, y para presiones de entrada constantes y similares entre ambas alimentaciones de agua, se consigue que el caudal sea prácti- camente constante al variar Ia temperatura del caño de salida Cs.In this way, and for constant and similar inlet pressures between both water feeds, the flow rate is practically constant as the temperature of the outlet pipe Cs varies.
Por otro lado, el controlador electrónico Ce permite controlar todos los elementos descritos y, a su vez, el usuario puede interactuar con éste a través del interfaz [n para determinar los valores de consigna de temperatura y caudal deseados. Como se ha indicado, el interfaz /n puede tener formatos y fun- ciones distintos, según el usuario desee. Un ejemplo de ello, es Io dispuesto en Ia Fig. 2, en Ia que se observa Ia utilización del aparato en Ia fregadera de una cocina, y en el que el controlador electrónico y el interfaz /n_están configurados como una unidad funcional. Tal unidad funcional permite adoptar formas y colores tales que favorezcan visualmente Ia integración del aparato de Ia invención al entorno donde se vaya a colocar.On the other hand, the electronic controller Ce allows to control all the described elements and, in turn, the user can interact with it through the interface [n to determine the desired temperature and flow setpoint values. As indicated, the interface / n can have different formats and functions, as the user wishes. An example of this is what is provided in Fig. 2, in which the use of the appliance in a kitchen sink is observed, and in which the electronic controller and the interface / n_ are configured as a functional unit. Such functional unit allows adopting shapes and colors that visually favor the integration of the apparatus of the invention into the environment where it is to be placed.
El tiempo de suministro de agua mezclada puede ser temporizado por el controlador electrónico Ce de modo que, transcurrido un tiempo determina-
do, se corte el suministro de agua hasta una nueva acción de marcha sobre el interfaz /n, favoreciendo así el ahorro de agua.The mixed water supply time can be timed by the electronic controller Ce so that, after a certain time has elapsed do, the water supply is cut until a new march action on the interface / n, thus favoring water saving.
El aparato de Ia invención permite una muy amplia variedad de posibilidades de aplicación destinadas a una optimización de los consumos de agua tanto en Io que hace referencia a caudales de consumo, temperatura de agua mezclada, tiempos de suministro de agua mezclada, etc. como al control de uso de distintos puntos de consumo. Así por ejemplo pueden disponerse varios interfaces Injde modo que actúen sobre un único controlador Ce.
The apparatus of the invention allows a very wide variety of application possibilities aimed at optimizing water consumption both in what refers to consumption flow rates, mixed water temperature, mixed water supply times, etc. as to the use control of different consumption points. Thus, for example, several Injde interfaces can be arranged to act on a single Ce controller.
