Definitions
- the present invention is composed of a sene of elements that coupled to the sink and countertops of domestic type allows to activate and deactivate the flow of water of a tap without using the hands.
- the same can be installed in industrial systems and in the sinks and showers used in domestic bathrooms that are adapted for this.
- Some types are known that by attaching a pedal installed on the floor and pressing it with the foot, the tap opens and, when released, the water flow is cut off.
- the most used type is the crutch of all known, there is a model with the sensor installed in the tap.
- the present device presents a new operating system, since instead of using our hands we use the support or approach of the front part of our body.
- a simple movement is enough to open or close the faucet, keeping the faucet the minimum time open and thereby achieving a series of advantages, such as significant savings in water consumption and having free hands for the realization of the cleanup.
- the device has an electrical circuit installed inside a box
- SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) This box has a plug to be connected to the 24Ov power grid.
- Figure 1 a represents a general view of the device coupled in a sink.
- Figure 2 a represents the electrical system that activates the device of the invention.
- FIG. 1 a the leading edge of the countertop or sink (11) is observed.
- This is installed by means of adhesive tape, a micropulsifier or (microdetector) (2), in which it is connected by cable (9) to the electrical connection box (8).
- a micropulsifier or (microdetector) (2) in which it is connected by cable (9) to the electrical connection box (8).
- an electrovalve (4) is inserted, connected by means of the cable (7) to the electrical box (8).
- the electrical circuit has a transformer (1) that transforms the network voltage of 24Ov into a working voltage of 6v or 12v, depending on the model.
- the two components that are outside the box (8) are the solenoid valve (4) and the micropulsive belt (2) or in its defect (microdetector) according to the need of each location.
