Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of processing tools, and in particular to an inductive pull-out faucet. Background Art

[0002] Pull-out faucets are widely loved by consumers because they allow people to freely move the pull-out head on the faucet for water discharge, making it easier for people to clean. Existing pull-out faucets generally use manual valve cores to control water discharge, which is still inconvenient to use. Therefore, some people have developed electronic pull-out faucets, which can make water discharge when people pull the pull-out head, and stop water when the pull-out head is reset, making it more convenient to use.

[0003] Existing electronic pull-out faucets use mechanical contact switches, which adopt the principle of mechanical contacts and have a complex structure. Since the position of the pull-out hose is not fixed, the mechanical switch requires high assembly precision and is prone to misoperation. The mechanical contact as the actuating mechanism is not conducive to glue filling to isolate water vapor and is prone to contact corrosion. Utility Model Content
