[0030] With reference to Figures 1 to 5 , comprising:

[0031] Box body assembly, including front shell 100, rear shell 110 and water delivery pipe 220, front shell 100 and rear shell 110 are installed together to form containing space, and the water delivery pipe 220 is arranged in the containing space;

[0032] Hydroelectric generator assembly 150 is arranged in the containing space, and the hydroelectric generator assembly 150 includes an impeller, the impeller is in the water delivery pipe 220, and the water flow of the water delivery pipe 220 passes through the impeller to generate electricity;

[0033] Energy supply assembly is arranged in the containing space, and the energy supply assembly includes a backup battery 170 and an energy storage capacitor, the energy storage capacitor is electrically connected with the hydroelectric generator assembly 150, and the energy supply assembly is electrically connected with the electromagnetic valve 160;

[0034] Electromagnetic valve 160 is arranged in the containing space, and the electromagnetic valve 160 is electrically connected with the backup battery 170, and the electromagnetic valve 160 is electrically connected with the energy storage capacitor;

[0035] Photoelectric controller is electrically connected with the electromagnetic valve, and the energy supply assembly is electrically connected with the photoelectric controller;

[0036] The power supply assembly automatically selects power supply from the backup battery 170 or the energy storage capacitor to the electromagnetic valve 160 and the photoelectric controller according to the electricity of the energy storage capacitor.

[0037] It can be understood that when the signal emitted by the photoelectric controller meets the hand or other objects and is reflected back to the photoelectric controller, the photoelectric controller will start the electromagnetic valve 160, thereby opening the water path. At this time, the water flow drives the impeller of the generator to rotate to generate electricity, and the generated electricity is stored in the energy storage capacitor after voltage stabilization processing. When the electricity of the energy storage capacitor is sufficient, the power supply assembly will preferentially select the energy storage capacitor to output electricity to drive the electromagnetic valve 160 to work; if the electricity of the energy storage capacitor is too low, the power supply assembly will switch to the backup battery 170 to output electricity to drive the electromagnetic valve 160 to work.

[0038] The box body assembly also includes a water turbine base and an electromagnetic valve base. The water turbine assembly is installed in the containing space through the water turbine base, and the electromagnetic valve 160 is installed in the containing space through the electromagnetic valve base.

[0039] By setting the water turbine assembly 150 in the water pipe 220, the water flow is used to drive the impeller to rotate to generate electricity, which reduces the dependence on external power supply or traditional batteries and reduces installation and maintenance costs. The power supply assembly can store excess electricity when the generated electricity is sufficient. When the electricity of the energy storage capacitor is sufficient, the power supply assembly preferentially selects the energy storage capacitor to supply power to the electromagnetic valve 160, and when the electricity of the energy storage capacitor is insufficient, the power supply assembly automatically switches to the backup battery 170 for power supply. This intelligent switching mechanism ensures efficient use of energy and prolongs the service life of the backup battery 170. The use of water turbine technology converts the natural energy of water flow into electricity, which not only reduces the use of chemical batteries and reduces the pollution of waste batteries to the environment, but also promotes the recycling of energy and conforms to the concept of green development. All components are integrated inside a box body assembly composed of a front shell 100 and a rear shell 110, forming an integrated design that saves space and is convenient to install and maintain. It is especially suitable for occasions with limited space or difficult wiring, can be flexibly installed and used, is not limited by external power supply conditions, and greatly expands its application range.

[0040] The box body assembly further comprises a hanging plate 130, which is provided with a first threaded connection hole 200 suitable for fixed connection between the rear shell 110 and a wall. The rear shell 110 is further provided with a clamping portion 180 which is matched with the hanging plate 130. The rear shell 110 is clamped and installed with the hanging plate 130 through the clamping portion 180. Not only does it simplify the installation process and improve the installation efficiency, but also ensures the stability and safety of the equipment, which is suitable for various installation environments and can realize quick installation.

[0041] The clamping portion 180 is a clamping groove, and two clamping grooves are oppositely arranged. The hanging plate 130 is provided with lugs 190 on both sides, which are matched with the clamping grooves and clamped in the clamping grooves. This ensures the stable connection between the rear shell 110 and the hanging plate 130, improves the overall stability and reliability of the equipment, and the clamping structure is simple and easy to use, facilitating quick installation and disassembly, reducing the difficulty of installation and maintenance, and improving user experience. It can be understood that the distance between the two clamping grooves is constricted, so that the hanging plate 130 can be clamped better.

[0042] The box body assembly further comprises a limiting plate provided with buckles suitable for fixing the backup battery 170. This ensures the stable placement of the backup battery 170 in the box body assembly, prevents displacement or vibration during transportation or use, improves the safety and reliability of the equipment, and the buckle type fixing method is simple and fast, facilitating the installation and replacement of the backup battery 170 and improving the convenience of maintenance.

[0043] The rear shell 110 is provided with a connecting column, and the water delivery pipe 220 is fixed to the connecting column through a threaded connecting piece. This ensures the stable installation of the water delivery pipe 220, improves the structural stability of the entire waterway valve, and facilitates the installation and disassembly of the water delivery pipe 220, simplifying the maintenance and repair process.

[0044] The rear shell 110 is provided with a plurality of second threaded connection holes 210 which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the rear shell 110. The second threaded connection holes 210 are fixed and installed with the rear shell 110 and the front shell 100 through threaded connecting pieces. This ensures the stable connection between the front and rear shells 110, improves the structural strength and stability of the entire box body assembly, and the multi-point fixing method not only enhances the anti-vibration ability and sealing performance of the equipment, but also facilitates the disassembly of the shell, simplifying the maintenance and repair process.

[0045] The backup battery 170 is a disposable battery or a rechargeable battery. Simplifying the complexity of the power supply system ensures stable power supply for components such as solenoid valve 160. The use of disposable batteries is convenient and fast, and there is no need for complex charging management circuit, which reduces manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty. In particular, in some application scenarios where battery replacement is not required frequently, disposable batteries can provide reliable power supply for a long time to meet the operation requirements of the device. Using disposable batteries for power supply eliminates the need to set up a charging port and use batteries that can be repeatedly charged and discharged, which can greatly save production costs. It can be understood that the backup battery can be a rechargeable lithium battery or a disposable lithium-manganese battery. Users can choose the appropriate battery type according to actual installation requirements, and details are not repeated here.

[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 The present embodiment provides a sensing sanitary ware hydroelectric power generation device. The valve design converts the kinetic energy generated when water flows through the water delivery pipe 220 into electrical energy to achieve hydroelectric power generation. This device not only can be self-sufficient in power supply, but also can effectively control water flow, and has high practical value.

[0047] The front shell 100 and the rear shell 110 are tightly connected by a plurality of second threaded connection holes 210 and corresponding threaded connection pieces, forming a sealed containing space. This space is used to install internal components such as hydroelectric generator assembly 150, power supply assembly, solenoid valve 160 and photoelectric controller. The water delivery pipe 220 is located inside the box body assembly, and its two ends are respectively provided with a water inlet 140 and a water outlet 120. Both interfaces are configured with connecting threads to facilitate connection with other pipeline systems. The hanging plate 130 is fixed to the wall through the first threaded connection hole 200. The clamping part 180 on the rear shell 110, which is specifically two opposite clamping grooves, matches the lugs 190 on both sides of the hanging plate 130, ensuring that the rear shell 110 can be quickly and stably installed on the hanging plate 130. The clasp on the limiting plate is used to fix the backup battery 170, ensuring its stability and safety during use.

[0048] The impeller is located inside the water delivery pipe 220. When water flows through, it drives the impeller to rotate, thereby generating electrical energy. The design of the impeller needs to consider the efficiency of water flow and power generation to ensure optimal performance. The backup battery 170 uses a disposable battery to store the electrical energy generated by the hydroelectric generator. At the same time, the energy storage capacitor serves as an auxiliary power supply and can quickly respond when the power is sufficient to provide instantaneous high current demand. Both are connected through a circuit with the hydroelectric generator assembly 150 to form a closed-loop power supply system.

[0049] The electromagnetic valve 160 directly controls the on-off state of water flow, and is electrically connected with the backup battery 170 and the energy storage capacitor, to ensure that sufficient power support can be obtained at any time. The photoelectric controller is responsible for monitoring the power level of the energy storage capacitor, and intelligently determines whether the backup battery 170 or the energy storage capacitor supplies power to the electromagnetic valve 160. In addition, the photoelectric controller also has a fault detection and protection function, to improve the reliability and service life of the system. In order to enhance the safety and durability of the system, the connection between the energy supply assembly and the electromagnetic valve 160, and the connection between the photoelectric controller and the electromagnetic valve 160 all adopt a waterproof plug design, effectively preventing short circuits or other electrical faults caused by water intrusion.

[0050] When the power of the energy storage capacitor is too low, the energy supply assembly switches to the backup battery 170, and the backup battery 170 outputs power to drive the electromagnetic valve 160 to work; when the power of the energy storage capacitor is sufficient, the energy supply assembly preferentially selects the energy storage capacitor to output power to drive the electromagnetic valve 160 to work. As the voltage of the energy storage capacitor gradually rises to the minimum voltage required for work, the energy storage capacitor will take on the task of outputting voltage, to ensure the efficiency and stability of the system operation.

[0051] The above describes the embodiments of the utility model in detail in combination with the drawings, but the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge range possessed by the ordinary skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the utility model.
