Float valve

Abstract

There is provided a float valve. The float valve includes: a frame; a water supply part fixed to the frame and including a water supply nozzle through which water is discharged; a vertical bar fixedly coupled to the frame and extending downwardly below the water supply unit; a float connected to the vertical bar and vertically movable along the vertical bar; a switching unit connected to the float and configured to open or close the water supply nozzle while being moved vertically according to vertical movement of the float; and a water level sensor disposed on the vertical bar to detect a position of the float. Since the water level senor is integrated in the float valve, the inside space of a product using the float valve may be efficiently used, and parts of the product may be simply assembled.
