When in use, users usually need to manually adjust the opening degree of the control valve core to adjust the water flow temperature and control the water flow rate. However, it is difficult to accurately control the water flow rate and the water outlet temperature by manually adjusting the opening degree of the valve core. Therefore, some control valves are disclosed in the prior art to accurately control the water outlet flow rate and the water outlet temperature. However, a common problem with existing control valves is that due to the existence of water flow pressure, the water outlet temperature and the water flow rate are extremely likely to change, and it is difficult to maintain the stability of the water outlet temperature, which affects the user experience.

Of course, the control unit can also be directly set on the housing 1.
[0067] A control method for a control valve includes the following steps:
[0068] S1. The main control board 3 controls the execution unit one 5 to drive the valve core 4, and the valve body 2 discharges water.
[0069] S2. The detection unit one 7 detects the water flow pressure and transmits it to the main control board 3, and the detection unit two 8 detects the water flow temperature and transmits it to the main control board 3.
[0070] S3. The main control board 3 receives the signal from the detection unit one 7 and drives the valve core 4 through the execution unit one 5 to control the water discharge flow rate. The main control board 3 receives the signal from the detection unit two 8 and drives the valve core 4 through the execution unit two 6 to control the water discharge temperature.
[0071] The working principle is as follows:
[0072] When the user needs to use water, the main control board 3 transmits corresponding instructions to the rotary drive source one 51. The rotary drive source one 51 starts, and the output end of the rotary drive source one 51 rotates to drive the gear one 52 to rotate. The rotating gear one 52 drives the swing rod 53 to swing through a plurality of tooth grooves one 54 engaged with it. The swinging swing rod 53 drives the valve rod 45 to rotate. The valve rod 45 drives the moving ceramic piece 44 to slide on the upper end surface of the static ceramic piece 43. The water flow in the water inlet channel one 9 flows into the mixing chamber 20 through the water inlet hole one 14 and the water inlet hole three 17 in sequence. The water flow in the water inlet channel two 10 flows into the mixing chamber 20 through the water inlet hole two 15 and the water inlet hole four 18 in sequence. The two water flows are mixed in the mixing chamber 20, and then flow into the water outlet channel 11 through the water outlet hole two 19 and the water outlet hole one 16 in sequence. The water flow in the water outlet channel 11 flows through the pipeline to the water using device for the user to use.
[0073] Since the pressure sensor 71 detects the water flow pressure in the water flow channel 11 in real time and transmits it to the main control board 3, when the main control board 3 determines that the water flow pressure fluctuates according to the water flow pressure transmitted by the pressure sensor 71, the main control board 3 sends a corresponding instruction to the first rotation drive source 51. The first rotation drive source 51 starts, and the output end of the first rotation drive source 51 rotates to drive the first gear 52 to rotate. The rotating first gear 52 drives the swing rod 53 to swing through a plurality of tooth grooves 54 that can mesh with it. The swinging swing rod 53 drives the valve stem 45 to rotate, and the valve stem 45 drives the moving ceramic sheet 44 to slide on the upper end surface of the static ceramic sheet 43. By sliding the moving ceramic sheet 44, the communication area between the third water inlet hole 17 and the fourth water inlet hole 18 and the mixing chamber 20 is adjusted, and the water flow rate entering the mixing chamber 20 is controlled, so as to increase or decrease the water flow rate and maintain the stability of the outlet water flow rate.
[0074] The temperature sensor 81 detects the water flow temperature in the water flow channel 11 in real time and transmits it to the main control board 3. When the main control board 3 determines that the outlet water temperature is changing according to the water flow temperature transmitted by the temperature sensor 81, the main control board 3 sends a corresponding instruction to the second rotation drive source 61. The second rotation drive source 61 starts, and the output end of the second rotation drive source 61 rotates to drive the second gear 62 to rotate. The rotating second gear 62 drives the linkage disk 63 to rotate through a plurality of tooth grooves 64 that can mesh with it. The rotating linkage disk 63 drives the handle 46 to rotate through the cooperation of a plurality of tooth grooves 33 and a plurality of tooth grooves 34. The handle 46 drives the connecting seat 47 to rotate through the cooperation of the positioning port 30 and the third protrusion 28. The connecting seat 47 drives the moving ceramic sheet 44 to rotate on the upper end surface of the static ceramic sheet 43 through the cooperation of the second protrusion 26 and the connecting groove 27. By rotating the moving ceramic sheet 44, the communication area between the third water inlet hole 17 and the mixing chamber 20 and / or the communication area between the fourth water inlet hole 18 and the mixing chamber 20 is adjusted, so as to realize the adjustment of the outlet water temperature and maintain the stability of the outlet water temperature.
