[0032] The water outlet of the electric-controlled water valve 2 is connected to the water inlet of the water outlet valve 6 through a water pipe.

[0033] In the present invention, the electric control water valve 2 and the outlet valve 6 cooperate to control the water outlet in the following manner:

[0034] Method 1: When the control panel 5 controls the water outlet, the water outlet valve 6 can be manually kept in an open state, and then the control panel 5 controls the water outlet by controlling the electric water valve 2 .

[0035] Mode 2: When the outlet valve 6 controls the water outflow, the electronically controlled water valve 2 is always in the open state, and the outlet valve 6 controls the water outflow;

[0036] It should be added that: the opening and closing state of the electric-controlled water valve 2, wherein the electric-controlled water valve 2 contains a servo motor that controls the opening and closing of the entire electric-controlled water valve 2, and the opening and closing state of the electric-controlled water valve 2 is controlled by the servo motor; in addition, the utility model can also mechanically open and close the electric-controlled water valve 2. When method two is implemented, the electric-controlled water valve 2 is mechanically opened, specifically by pulling out the core, and the opening method is as follows: the electric-controlled water valve 2 preferably adopts a solenoid valve, then first unscrew the valve core mounting seat, then remove the valve core from the mounting seat, and finally reverse the valve core mounting seat, so that the valve core mounting seat is reinstalled on the solenoid valve. It should be noted that the solenoid valve is a prior art, and the mechanical removal and placement of its valve core is a prior art, and the valve core can be autonomously installed or disassembled according to the model of the solenoid valve.
