[0002] An induction faucet refers to a faucet that works based on the principle of infrared reflection. When a person's hand is placed within the infrared area of the faucet, the infrared rays emitted by the infrared emitter are blocked and reflected by the person's hand onto the infrared receiver. The signal processed by the microcomputer within the integrated circuit is sent to the pulse solenoid valve. After receiving the signal, the solenoid valve opens the valve core according to the specified instruction to control the water outflow of the faucet. When the person's hand leaves the infrared induction range, the solenoid valve does not receive the signal, and the valve core of the solenoid valve is reset through the internal spring to control the water shut-off of the faucet.

A water volume adjustment button 17 and a time adjustment button 18 are provided on the touch panel 13, and a water outlet 19 is provided at one end of the faucet housing 11;

[0022] The control box 2 includes a box body 21, a power management module 22, a rechargeable battery 23, a control board 24 with a clock circuit and a solenoid valve 25. The power management module 22, the rechargeable battery 23, the control board 24 with a clock circuit and the solenoid valve 25 are respectively installed in the box body 21, and the power management module 22 is electrically connected to the rechargeable battery 23, the rechargeable battery 23 is electrically connected to the control board 24 with a clock circuit, and the control board 24 with a clock circuit is electrically connected to the solenoid valve 25.

[0023] Specifically, a first wire groove 110 is provided in the faucet housing 11, and one end of the first wire groove 110 extends to the bottom of the faucet housing 11, and the other end communicates with the assembly cavity 16.

[0024] In this implementation scheme, the first wire groove 110 tidies up the signal lines together and guides them to the required positions, that is, electrically connecting the touch panel 13 and the control board 24 with a clock circuit.

[0025] Specifically, a second wire groove 111 is provided in the induction window 15, and one end of the second wire groove 111 extends to the bottom of the faucet housing 11.

[0027] Specifically, the human body infrared sensor 12 and the touch panel 13 are respectively electrically connected to the control board 24 with a clock circuit through signal lines.

[0028] In this embodiment, the human body infrared sensor 12 is also called a pyroelectric sensor and works by detecting the infrared rays emitted by the human body. The human body has a constant body temperature, generally between 36 and 37 degrees, so it will emit infrared rays of a specific wavelength. This sensor detects the presence of the human body by detecting the infrared rays emitted by the human body. When the human body enters the sensing range of the sensor, the sensor can receive the infrared radiation of the human body, and then trigger corresponding actions. For example, the sensor outputs a signal to the control board 24 with a clock circuit, and the control board 24 with a clock circuit issues corresponding instructions to the solenoid valve 25 to execute. The touch panel 13 is an inductive liquid crystal display device that can receive input signals such as touch heads. When touching the graphic buttons on the screen, the tactile feedback system on the screen can drive various connecting devices according to the pre-programmed program, and can be used to replace the mechanical button panel.

The control board 24 is a special circuit board, and its design purpose is to realize the intelligent and automatic control of the device. They can perform complex control tasks, such as signal acquisition, processing, control command output, and protection functions, etc. Although the application range of the control board 24 is not as wide as that of ordinary circuit boards, they play a crucial role in realizing the intelligence and automation of the device. The control board 24 has a clock circuit, which can provide a stable time reference signal for synchronizing and timing other electronic devices or systems. This is very important for coordinating the operations of each component in a complex system to ensure that they work according to a predetermined time sequence. The clock circuit can be used to control and trigger logic operations. Through the rising edge or falling edge of the clock signal, certain logical circuits can be triggered to perform operations or state conversions, so as to realize specific functions.

[0029] Specifically, a power line 26 is connected to the power management module 22, and the power line 26 is located outside the box body 21.

[0030] In this embodiment, the power management module 22 realizes precise control of the power supply by monitoring the power demand and supply status of each component of the system, ensuring the stable operation and high-efficiency conversion of the electronic device, and providing multiple protection functions. According to the device requirements, the power management module 22 will step down, step up, or step up and down the input voltage, etc., and output a stable voltage. At the same time, it also has overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, and short-circuit protection functions to ensure the safe operation of the device under various abnormal conditions. The power cord 26 is used to connect to the power supply.

[0031] Specifically, both the water inlet and the water outlet 19 of the solenoid valve 25 are located outside the box body 21, and the water outlet 19 of the solenoid valve 25 is connected to the pipe interface 14 through a hose.

[0032] In this embodiment, the solenoid valve 25 is an industrial device controlled by electricity magnetism. It is a basic automation component used to control fluids and belongs to an actuator. It is not limited to hydraulic and pneumatic applications and is used in industrial control systems to adjust parameters such as the direction, flow rate, speed, and others of the medium.

[0033] When in use, the user can achieve the single or combined control function of the faucet through the touch panel 13. By touching the water volume adjustment button 17 or the time adjustment button 18 on it with a finger, signals can be respectively output to the control board 24 with a clock circuit. The control board 24 with a clock circuit issues corresponding instructions to the solenoid valve 25 to execute, thereby presetting the water flow rate or the water outlet time, and controlling the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 25 according to the flow rate and time, providing multiple choices and multiple uses for the user, and can be popularized for household use.

[0034] In summary, for this intelligent induction faucet, the user can achieve the single or combined control function of the faucet through the touch panel 13. By touching the water volume adjustment button 17 or the time adjustment button 18 on it with a finger, signals can be respectively output to the control board 24 with a clock circuit.
