Abstract

PURPOSE:To control the hot water temperature of multiple and corresponding hot water supply valves respectively and separately by a method wherein the temperature of mixed hot and cold water in multiple hot and cold water mixers are controlled by means of mixing cold and hot water according to the selected values by a controller corresponding to each mixer. CONSTITUTION:Cold water fed to a hot water supply unit 10 through a water supply pipe 3 is heated by a heater 16 to be heated. When an user of hot water sets up a preferable hot water temperature by means of a volume 9 of a remote controller 13 at hot water supply end, a controller 12 in the hot water supply unit 10 commands to mix cold and hot water properly so that the hot water temperature of a cold and hot water mixer 11 of the series to which the remote controller 13 belongs may be equalized to the temperature set up by the setting up volume 9 producing the hot water of specified temperature to supply the hot water pipe running to a hot water supply valve 4 on a hot water end of an user through a corresponding hot water supply pipe 2. The remote controller 13 may command the hot water temperature only to be supplied for each separately corresponding to hot water supply valve 4. Through these procedures, a hot water supply device may supply the hot water supply valves on multiple hot water supply ends with hot water at respectively specified temperatures simply and easily without fail.

というものである。Next, the operation of the conventional device will be explained. The water is from the water supply pipe (
3) and is supplied not only to the water heater (1) but also to a plurality of other supply ends. ! When the hot water valve (4) is opened, the priority designation switch (8) installed at that location selects one hot water temperature, giving priority to the lower remote control value. Then, among the remote controllers (7) in all the locations where the hot water valve (4) is open, the remote controller (7) with the highest priority is given priority.
Instruct the water temperature and the controller (6) will set up accordingly.
Machine B (11 yj@hot water temperature is divided by 1 to adjust the hot water temperature.

う重大な欠点も含んでいた。[Conventional system/disadvantages] Conventional water heaters were poorly constructed as described above, so at the Tanio location, located 91J away, only hot water of the same temperature was supplied, and the water temperature at 7. It is not possible to freely change the hot water temperature at the hot water supply location of the remote control that has the highest priority than the remote control of the terminal that is set. If you want to get hot water with a temperature below 11, open the water supply valve (5) and discharge it here.
Consumers had no choice but to mix filtrate water and hot water obtained from the hot water supply valve (4) themselves to produce hot water at the required temperature at the required site. 1. The temperature setting is changed without notice by the remote control with the highest priority. Therefore, depending on the location, the temperature of the hot water in use in other locations may suddenly change, resulting in dangerous boiling water being released to customers in that location, which is a serious drawback.
