[0026] Example

[0027] The following are only preferred implementations of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0028] Reference Manual Attached Figure 1-2 A sensor faucet structure includes a faucet body 1, a switch handle 2, a bracket 4 and a sensor window 3, wherein the sensor window includes a sensor window head 34, a sensor window line 35 and a sensor window boss 31, wherein the sensor window head 34 is mounted on the bracket 4, the sensor window line 35 passes through the sensor window boss 31 and is connected to the sensor window head 34, the sensor window boss 31 is clamped in the faucet body 1, and the sensor window boss 31 can protect the sensor window line 35 from being pulled and damaged, and the faucet body 1 also includes a valve core seat 33, the valve core seat 33 is connected to the faucet handle 2, and the valve core seat is provided with a fixed channel 331 for the sensor window line 35 to pass through. The faucet body 1 is connected to a water outlet 5, and the water outlet of the sensor faucet structure can be controlled by the switch handle 2, that is, when the sensor window 3 in the faucet body 1 is powered off or other special conditions occur, the water outlet of the sensor faucet structure can be controlled by the original switch handle 2. Specifically, the switch handle 2 controls the water outlet of the sensor faucet structure through the valve core seat 33 in the body.

[0029] Reference Manual Attached Figure 3 A protective cover 32 is provided between the sensing window line 35 and the fixing channel 331, and the protective cover 32 is provided with a protective cover opening 321 for the sensing window line 35 to pass through. The protective cover opening 321 is provided when the protective cover 32 is in the attachment of the manual. Figure 3 When the protective sleeve opening 321 is deformed and inserted into the fixed channel 331 of the valve core seat, it is in the state of the right side of the valve core seat. Figure 3The left side state, at this time, the protective cover opening 321 becomes smaller, so that during the assembly process, the sensing window line 35 will not fall out. The protective cover 32 has steps on the upper and lower sides, and can be fixed on the valve core seat 33 without running.

[0030] Reference Manual Attached Figure 4 The valve core seat has a fixed channel 331, which is specifically shaped as an open groove. The fixed channel 331 is located at the edge of the valve core seat 33 and is used to fix the protective sleeve 32 and the sensing window line 35. The diameter of the open groove is smaller than that of the protective sleeve 32. When the protective sleeve 32 is deformed and installed into the valve core seat 33, the protective sleeve opening 321 of the protective sleeve 32 is reduced to prevent the sensing window line 35 from escaping.

[0031] Reference Manual Attached Figure 5-6 The bracket 4 can rotate around the connection between it and the faucet body 1, and a limiting groove is provided at the connection between it and the faucet body. The limiting groove can limit the rotation angle of the bracket around the faucet body to 0-170 degrees. The limiting groove can prevent the bracket 4 from being entangled and tearing the sensing window line 35 when rotating around the connection between it and the faucet body 1. The bracket is connected to the faucet body by a screw 6. The screw 6 is locked on the faucet body 1 by a thread, and there is a cylinder at the front end of the screw 6, which is used to fix the bracket and limit the rotation angle of the bracket.
