AI Technical Summary
During the use of existing temperature-controlled faucets, due to the presence of dissolved salts and minerals in the water, scale precipitates and precipitates out of the inner wall of the water pipe, which may cause the water pipe to be blocked, but the device does not have relevant components for scale cleaning on the inner wall of the water pipe.
The flow of cold or hot water in the two water pipes drives the impeller to rotate, and multiple scrapers are driven by connecting shafts to scrape and clean the inner wall of the water pipe, relying on the water flow to clean the scale and avoid extra power settings.
It effectively avoids the risk of blockage caused by scale on the inner wall of the water pipe, reduces the production cost of the device, improves the water pipe cleaning effect, and extends the service life of the device.

Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of faucets, in particular to a temperature-controlled faucet. Background Art
[0002] A faucet is a device used to regulate and control the outflow of tap water, usually installed on a sink or bathtub in a bathroom, kitchen, etc. The faucet adjusts the water flow and water temperature by rotating the valve core or handle to meet people's water needs in daily life.
[0003] For example, a Chinese utility model patent (CN220185911U) discloses a temperature-controlled faucet, which states: "The cold water inlet valve and the hot water inlet valve are respectively used to adjust the flow of cold water and hot water flowing into the faucet body, so that the temperature of the water flowing out of the faucet body reaches the set temperature. The temperature-controlled faucet proposed by the utility model improves the temperature adjustment efficiency and improves the user experience." It also states: "When the existing faucet adjusts the water flow rate through the valve body, the change in flow rate and the adjusted flow rate cannot be accurately determined. The valve body is only used to determine whether the flow rate is properly adjusted based on the temperature of the outflowing water. As a result, multiple repeated adjustments are required to reach the appropriate temperature, which takes a long time to wait and causes a poor user experience." Technical problems.
[0004] In summary, it can be seen that in the prior art, the temperature control of the faucet is achieved by controlling the hot and cold water inlet valves using the electronic control mainboard. However, this method has the following technical problems: in the actual use of the faucet, since the water contains more soluble salts and minerals, as the faucet is used, scale will precipitate on the inner wall of the water pipe, which may cause blockage of the water pipe. However, the device does not have relevant components for cleaning the scale on the inner wall of the water pipe. For this reason, the present application proposes a temperature-controlled faucet to provide a new technical solution to solve the technical problems mentioned in the above patents.
