Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fixture with double control in which the water flow may be controlled mechanically with the help of an arm and/or electrically with the help of a trigger. More particularly, the invention relates to a fixture with double control in which the water flow from the fixture may be turned on and off mechanically with the help of an arm, the water flow from the fixture may be turned on and off electrically with the help of a trigger, the water flow from the fixture may be turned on mechanically with the help of an arm and turned off electrically with the help of a trigger or the water flow from the fixture may be turned on electrically with the help of a trigger and turned off mechanically with the help of an arm.
  • the fixtures are used for the purpose of supplying in a controlled manner the water in the plumbing for use.
  • the fixtures are also employed for regulating the flow rate.
  • the fixtures are most of the time are controlled with the help of a mechanical control arm .
  • the mechanical arm is connected to a packing or a cartridge, and through the motion of the mechanical arm, the packing or the cartridge either allows or stops the water flow.
  • By means of said mechanical arm it is also possible to mix the hot water and cold water according to desired proportions and thus to adjust the temperature of the mixture water.
  • the electrically controlled fixtures are also employed in order to preclude the unnecessary water consumption, facilitate the use and enhance the hygiene.
  • Such electrically controlled fixtures are triggered by an optical sensor, touch-sensitive sensor and the like and they activate an electrical valve to allow the flow of water. The water flow is stopped when the object activating the system is moved away from the sensor in a fixture with an optical sensor or when a fixture having a touch-sensitive sensor is touched again.
  • the fixtures are also available, which are controlled both mechanically by means of a control arm and electrically with the help of sensors. In order to allow the water flow in such fixtures, it is necessary to both bring the cartridge or the packing into the open position by means of the mechanical arm and bring the electrical valve into the on position by triggering the sensor.
  • US2013264505 describes a system where an electrically controlled solenoid valve and a mechanically controlled valve are used.
  • the water reaches first the mechanically controlled valve.
  • the mechanically controlled valve In case of the mechanically controlled valve being open, the water advances to the electrically controlled solenoid valve.
  • the solenoid valve assumes the on position and the water flows out from the fixture.
  • the mechanically controlled valve In case the mechanically controlled valve is not open, the flow of water will not take place from the fixture even if the sensor is triggered and the solenoid valve assumes the on position.
  • a bypass line is also formed against the possibility of the malfunction of the solenoid valve or the failure of the same to operate for any reason. Consequently, in order to be able to utilize the water in said system, it is required to bring both valves into open position.
  • the state of the art also includes the embodiments in which the mechanical control arm and the electrical valve operate independently of one another.
  • the water line that is controlled by the mechanical control arm and the water line controlled by the electrical valve are independent from each other. In this way, it becomes possible to enable the water flow by means of only the mechanical control arm and/or by way of bringing only the electrical valve into the on position.
  • the technique employed in such embodiments is similar to the principle of combining the water outlets of two independent fixtures that are controlled by means of an electrical valve and a mechanical control arm, respectively.
  • US2013248019 describes a system comprising three valves, one of which is electrically controlled and the other is mechanically controlled.
  • the electrically controlled valve and one of the mechanically controlled valves are connected in parallel and operate independently of one another.
  • the water flow may be activated by any one of the valves connected in parallel.
  • the system disclosed in this document is similar to the technique disclosed in US20160362876 and, in order to deactivate the system, it is necessary to use the same valve that was used to activate the system.
  • the water flow should be stopped by means of the mechanical valve in case the flow was enabled by means of said mechanical valve and the same should be stopped by means of the electrical valve in case the flow was enabled by means of said electrical valve.
  • the other mechanical valve described in this document is connected in series to the electrical valve. It is used for the purpose of adjusting the temperature of the water when the electrical valve is active and the water flow is being enabled.
  • An object of the invention is to develop a fixture with double control in which the flow may be enabled and stopped mechanically with the help of an arm, the flow may be turned on and off electrically with the help of a trigger, the flow may be turned on mechanically with the help of an arm and turned off electrically with the help of a trigger or the flow may be turned on electrically with the help of a trigger and turned off mechanically with the help of an arm.
  • Another object of the invention is to develop a fixture with double control by which it is possible to enable the flow by changing the position of any of the valves while both the mechanical valve and the electrically controlled valve are in a position not allowing the flow.
  • Another object of the invention is to develop a fixture with double control by which it is possible to stop the flow by changing the position of any of the mechanically controlled valve or electrically controlled valve while the flow of water is taking place from the fixture.
  • Figure 1 An exploded view of the components of the fixture with double control.
  • Figure 2 A partial sectional view of the fixture with double control.
  • Figure 3 Schemes showing the scenarios according to the positions of the valve and the cartridge.
  • the fixture with double control comprises the fixture body (1), the fixture water inlet (11) for enabling the water in the plumbing to enter the fixture, at least one cartridge (4) and at least one electronic valve (7) for providing the controlled flow of water, the trigger (8), the electronic control unit (9) for controlling the electronic valve (7) based on the signals received from the trigger (8), the fixture water outlet (12) for enabling the outflow of the water from the fixture and the connection members.

  • the lower body (2) contains at least two parallel water conduits (6) connected to the valve body water outlets (52).
  • the connection between the fixture body (1) and the lower body (2) is provided by means of the connection adapter (3).
  • the water which is conveyed to the fixture body (1) by means of the connection adapter (3), is controlled by the cartridge (4).

  • the electronic valve (7) and the cartridge (4) are in a position favoring the flow, the water entering the fixture via the fixture water inlet (11) will leave the fixture via the fixture water outlet (12).
  • the electronic valve (7) disposed within the valve body (5) guides the water coming via the fixture water inlet (11) to only one of the valve body water outlets (52).
  • the water is not guided to more than one valve body water outlet (52) at the same time or it is not possible to bring all of the valve body water outlets (52) into the closed position.
