Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sensor faucet technology, and in particular to a dedicated connecting cable for sensor faucets. Background Technology

[0002] Sensor faucets are widely used in public restrooms, hospitals, and other places due to their convenience and hygiene.

[0003] Existing sensor faucets typically rely on external power. In the event of a power outage, due to the lack of an effective emergency mechanism, the solenoid valve cannot close in time, causing the faucet to continue to flow water, resulting in a large waste of water resources. It may also cause a series of problems such as water accumulation on the ground and equipment soaking, causing unnecessary economic losses and inconvenience to users.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a dedicated connecting cable for sensor faucets. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a dedicated connecting cable for sensor faucets to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a special connecting cable for sensor faucets, including a connecting cable body, which is composed of a first wire, a second wire, and a large capacitor, wherein the large capacitor is welded between the first wire and the second wire.

[0007] A power outage detection module is electrically connected to a large capacitor and is used to detect whether there is a power outage.

[0008] Preferably, an insulating sleeve is fixedly fitted at the connection between the first conductor and the second conductor, and the large capacitor is located inside the insulating sleeve.

[0009] Preferably, the insulating sleeve is made of the same insulating material as the outer sheath of conductor one and conductor two.

[0010] Compared with related technologies, the special connecting cable for sensor faucets provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0011] 1. Avoid water waste: In the event of a power outage, the remaining power of the capacitor is used to shut off the solenoid valve in time, preventing the tap from continuously running water, thus achieving effective water conservation and conforming to the concept of green environmental protection.

[0012] 2. Reduce economic losses: Avoid problems such as water accumulation on the ground and soaking of equipment caused by continuous water flow from the tap, and reduce the risk of property damage caused by power outages for users;

[0013] 3. Improve safety: Prevent slipping and other safety hazards caused by water accumulation on the ground, and improve the safety of the environment in which sensor faucets are used;

[0014] 4. Simple structure and easy implementation: By integrating a large capacitor into the existing dedicated connection line of the sensor faucet and cooperating with the power failure detection module, there is no need to make large-scale modifications to the main structure of the sensor faucet, which is convenient for production and installation and has good market application prospects.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-3 The technical solution provided by this utility model specifically includes the following embodiments:

[0020] A special connecting cable for a sensor faucet includes a main body, which is composed of a first wire 1, a second wire 2, and a large capacitor 3. The large capacitor 3 is soldered between the first wire 1 and the second wire 2.

[0021] The large capacitor 3 can store electrical energy during normal use. When the power is off, the electrical energy in the large capacitor 3 can be used to drive the solenoid valve 6 to close, preventing the sensor faucet 7 from continuously dispensing water.

[0022] A power outage detection module 5 is electrically connected to a large capacitor 3. The power outage detection module 5 is used to detect whether there is a power outage. The power outage detection module 5 can be an integrated circuit module based on voltage detection principles to monitor the external power supply voltage in real time. When the detected voltage is lower than the normal operating voltage threshold (e.g., 80% of the normal voltage), a power outage is determined, and a power outage signal is output to trigger capacitor discharge.

[0023] An insulating sleeve 9 is fixedly fitted at the connection between conductor 1 and conductor 2. The large capacitor 3 is located inside the insulating sleeve 9. The insulating sleeve 9 is made of the same insulating material as the outer sheath of conductor 1 and conductor 2. The insulating sleeve 9 can wrap the large capacitor 3 inside, which can avoid the large capacitor 3 and the connection between conductor 1 and conductor 2 being exposed to the outside, which is prone to damage and leakage.

[0024] The end of wire 1 is connected to a sensor faucet 7, and the end of wire 2 is connected to a control box 4. The power outage detection module 5 is built into the control box 4. At the same time, a solenoid valve 6 is also installed on the control box 4. A water pipe 8 is connected between the solenoid valve 6 and the sensor faucet 7 for water supply. The solenoid valve 6 is also connected to a water supply pipeline (not shown in the figure).

[0025] By adding a large capacitor inside the connecting wire, the problem of existing sensor faucets failing to close the solenoid valve in time during power outages, thus wasting water resources, is solved. The remaining power of the capacitor is used to close the solenoid valve after a power outage, avoiding adverse consequences caused by power outages.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] When the sensor on the sensor faucet 7 detects a command, it transmits the command to the control box 4 via wire 1 and wire 2. Then, the solenoid valve 6 in the control box 4 opens and supplies water to the sensor faucet 7 through the water pipe 8. During this process, the current flowing through wire 1 and wire 2 charges the large capacitor 3. When the power failure detection module 5 detects a power failure, the electrical energy in the large capacitor 3 will supply power to the control box 4 through wire 2, causing the solenoid valve 6 to close. At this time, the sensor faucet 7 will no longer dispense water.
