The hot water valve 4 is in a state where an appropriate amount of hot water is filled, and the temperature sensor 8 detects the temperature in the mixing channel 7. If the temperature is below 42° C., the control unit 9 rotates the switching valve 17 to discharge hot water from the hot water pipe 19. Temperature sensor 8 indicates that the temperature inside mixing channel 7 is 42.
When it is detected that the temperature exceeds 0.degree. C., the control section 9 closes the switching valve 17 to stop the hot water, and continues to do so while the timer in the control section 9 counts 3 minutes. If hot water is supplied during that time, the quick control ends, but unless the hot water supply is completed, hot water is discharged from the collar 19 to maintain the temperature in the mixing channel γ at the set temperature.

Each time the mixed water temperature changes due to a change in the hot water pressure level b, the temperature sensor 8 senses the detected temperature TW, converts the detected temperature TW into an electrical signal, sends it to the 111111 section 9, and sends it to the control section. 9 is the set temperature Ts
and the sensed temperature Tw, the sensed temperature Tw is the set temperature T.
If it is -0.5°C or more lower than s, the opening ratio of the water valve 2 to the hot water valve 4 is reduced at a speed proportional to the temperature difference to measure the rise in the outlet temperature TM, and the sensing temperature Tw is set. If the temperature is 0.5°C or more higher than the temperature T5, the opening ratio of the water valve 2 to the hot water valve 4 is increased at a speed proportional to the temperature difference to measure the decrease in the outlet temperature TM, and as a result, the detected temperature Tw is within ±0.5°C or the same temperature as the set temperature, the opening ratio of the water valve 2 to the hot water valve 4 is fixed, and the temperature of the mixed water passing through the mixed water flow path 7 is set to be the same as the set temperature TS.

The temperature difference between temperature a2 is as small as 0.5℃,
Substantially no residual deviation occurs within 1°C, which is so small that it cannot be felt by the human body.

湯装置に構成したので次のような効果がある。(Effects) As described above, the present invention provides a water heater equipped with a thermostatic mixing valve, in which a temperature-sensitive sensor is provided in the mixing channel to sense the temperature of the mixed water in the channel and convert the detected temperature into an electrical signal. The opening/closing valve is provided with a driving part that drives the opening/closing valve, and the driving part and the temperature sensor compare the electric signal received from the temperature sensor with an electrically settable set temperature. A control unit that can control the operation by sending an operating signal to the drive unit to open the closed valve to discharge the mixed water and adjust the temperature of the mixed water in the mixing channel to the set temperature when the temperature of the mixed water inside and outside differs from the set temperature Since the hot water supply device is constructed by connecting the two, it has the following effects.
開閉弁を開くと設定温度の湯が即座に供給され、冷めた
湯を捨てる必要が無く使い勝手がよい。When you open the on-off valve, hot water at the set temperature is immediately supplied, and there is no need to throw away cold water, making it easy to use.
湯を流しっばなしにしないで最小限しか捨てないので無
駄が少なく経済的である。It is economical because there is little waste because only the minimum amount of hot water is thrown away without leaving the hot water in the sink.
依って所期の目的を達する。Thus, the desired goal is achieved.
