Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of buoys, and more particularly to a head electric regulator. Background Technology

[0002] Rotary faucet control switches are quite common in practice. They are turned on and off by rotating the switch. Existing technology typically adds an outward-extending lever for easier rotation, which allows for quick opening and closing, but the lever is prone to accidental activation. Round-headed rotary control switches effectively prevent accidental activation. To facilitate rotation, the round-headed switch is not actually a perfect circle but has many grooves to increase friction during rotation. Because round-headed switches are more difficult to open and close, some users require external electric devices to automatically open and close existing round-headed faucets. How to achieve this functionality is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0021] Examples, such as Figure 1-4 As shown:

[0022] An electric faucet regulator includes a motor module 100; the motor module 100 includes a motor; a connecting body 120 is anti-rotatingly connected to the output shaft 110 of the motor; in one embodiment, the motor module 100 further includes a sensor and a control circuit board, which, when a user approaches the sensor, controls the output shaft 110 to rotate, thereby rotating the faucet regulating switch 150 to turn the water on and off; the structure and model of the sensor and control circuit board are common technologies in the art and will not be described in detail here; in one embodiment, a remote control component may also be provided in the motor module 100 to enable remote control of the faucet regulating switch 150; in one embodiment, the motor module 100 has a built-in battery; the motor module 100 is typically fixedly connected to a wall. This application does not specifically describe the fixing structure of the motor module 100 to the wall, but those skilled in the art know that various fixing methods can be used, which will not be described in detail here.

[0023] In one embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the connecting body 120 is fixedly connected with several grippers 141 that cooperate with the faucet adjustment switch 150. By using grippers 141, the versatility of the regulator can be effectively expanded, which can meet the cooperation requirements of various rotary faucets and reduce the cost of making molds one by one. The grippers 141 are made of flexible materials, such as plastic or metal sheets. It is preferable to use metal sheets, which can ensure strength while having a certain degree of flexibility, and have a better clamping effect on the faucet adjustment switch 150, with stronger stability and durability.

[0024] In one embodiment of this utility model, an adjusting sleeve 130 that can move axially along the connecting body 120 is movably connected to the connecting body 120; the end of the gripper 141 near the connecting body 120 is configured to extend in a direction away from the connecting body 120 while extending outward from the connecting body 120; the end of the gripper 141 near the connecting body 120 is always in contact with the inner wall 133 of the adjusting sleeve 130; when the adjusting sleeve 130 moves away from the motor module 100, the inner wall 133 will squeeze the gripper 141, thereby allowing the end of the gripper 141 away from the motor module 100 to move inward, thereby achieving a clamping effect on the faucet adjustment switch 150 or further increasing the clamping force, and realizing the effective cooperation between the gripper 141 and the faucet adjustment switch 150; when the connecting body 120 rotates under the control of the output shaft 110, the faucet adjustment switch 150 can be opened or closed through the gripper 141.

[0025] In one embodiment of this utility model, the output shaft 110 is a flat shaft; the connecting body 120 is fixedly connected to the output shaft 110 by a limiting screw 121. Using a flat shaft effectively ensures the anti-rotation connection between the output shaft 110 and the connecting body 120, while also achieving position positioning and facilitating the assembly of the limiting screw 121. The limiting screw 121 typically achieves the fixed connection between the output shaft 110 and the connecting body 120 by engaging a hole on the side of the connecting body 120 with a hole on the output shaft 110.

[0026] In one embodiment of this utility model, the connecting body 120 is provided with an external thread 122; the adjusting sleeve 130 is provided with an internal thread 132 that mates with the external thread 122. The threaded connection between the connecting body 120 and the adjusting sleeve 130 effectively enables the adjusting sleeve 130 to move along the axial direction of the connecting body 120. Simultaneously, the threaded connection ensures that the adjusting sleeve 130 can stop at any position, thereby allowing free control of the clamping force of the gripper 141.

[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, an adjusting block 131 for adjusting the rotation of the adjusting sleeve 130 is fixedly connected to the outside of the adjusting sleeve 130; the adjusting block 131 extends outward from the adjusting sleeve 130. The rotational position of the adjusting sleeve 130 can be easily adjusted by the adjusting block 131.

[0028] In one embodiment of this utility model, at least three grippers 141 are provided. Using three grippers 141 can reduce costs while ensuring the gripping effect on the faucet adjustment switch 150. On the other hand, using three grippers 141 can ensure a larger distance between adjacent grippers 141, resulting in better adaptability to the faucet adjustment switch 150.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the connecting body 120 is fixedly connected to the gripper 141 via a connecting block 140; the bottom of the connecting body 120 is provided with a mounting groove 123 that mates with the connecting block 140; the outer side of the mounting groove 123 is provided with a gripper limiting groove 124 that mates with the gripper 141; the mounting groove 123 and the gripper limiting groove 124 are connected; the connecting block 140 is fixedly connected to the connecting body 120 via a fixing screw 142. In one embodiment, the connecting hole can be set to a conical shape, thereby utilizing the outer surface of the conical shape to better compress the gripper 141, achieving a fixed connection between the gripper 141 and the connecting body 120; as shown Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the gripper 141 may be provided with a bent portion 1411, which is located at the bottom of the mounting groove 123. The bent portion 1411 is clamped by the connecting block 140 and the bottom of the mounting groove 123 to achieve a fixed connection between the gripper 141 and the connecting body 120.

[0030] This utility model uses a gripper 141 to clamp the faucet adjustment switch 150, which can be adapted to a wider range of faucet adjustment switches 150 shapes, making it highly versatile; by adjusting the sleeve 130, the clamping force on the faucet adjustment switch 150 can be freely controlled, ensuring the stability of the connection with the faucet adjustment switch 150.

[0031] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent modifications made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
