Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water control equipment, in particular to a water control equipment controlled by a touch button. Background Art

[0002] Touch button controlled water control equipment receives user instructions by touching the button. When the user touches the button, the touch sensor detects the change in capacitance and converts it into an electrical signal. This electrical signal will be transmitted to the controller. The controller controls the opening, closing, flow adjustment and other functions of the water control equipment according to the preset program.

[0003] Existing touch-button water control devices are prone to malfunction or false triggering when water droplets or foam accumulate on the touch buttons when the user is using the device in the bathroom. The water droplets and foam need to be wiped clean before the device can be used again, which reduces the user experience of the product. Therefore, we have launched a new touch-button water control device. Utility Model Content

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to insert the screws.

[0012] Preferably, the two No. 2 engaging ports are respectively engaged and connected with the pipes at both ends of the water meter.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the pipes at both ends of the water meter can be limited and fixed.

[0014] Preferably, the four threaded sleeves respectively correspond to the positions of the four No. 1 mounting columns.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the screw can be threadedly connected with the threaded sleeve from inside the No. 1 mounting column, so that the front mounting shell and the rear mounting shell can be quickly connected and installed together.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. By respectively snapping the two pipes on the water meter into the two No. 1 snap-fitting ports in the rear mounting shell, and threading the water meter to the two No. 2 mounting posts with screws, the water meter can be easily installed inside the rear mounting shell. Then, close and dock the front mounting shell with the rear mounting shell, so that the four No. 1 mounting posts correspond to the positions of the four threaded sleeves, and the two No. 2 snap-fitting ports correspond to the positions of the two No. 1 snap-fitting ports. Use a screwdriver to insert the screws through the four mounting holes and thread the screws into the four threaded sleeves. This makes the front mounting shell and the rear mounting shell easy and quick to install and connect, and facilitates subsequent disassembly, inspection, and maintenance.

[0018] 2. By installing a key chip inside the front shell, the key chip is installed in the touch key area. The current key chip uses the self-capacitance mode, scans the touch key area to calculate the change in capacitance, and performs statistical calculations on the change in media such as water or foam. When there are water droplets or foam in the touch key area, it performs adaptive adjustment to prevent false triggering, allowing users to operate the keys normally, which not only improves the product experience, but also enhances its stability and reliability in actual applications.
