Abstract
An inductive control valve using solar battery as a supplementary energy source mainly includes an amorphous silicon solar battery fixedly mounted on a casing of an inductive flushing valve or a main body of an inductive water faucet. Positive and negative lead-outs of the amorphous silicon solar battery are parallelly connected to positive and negative electrodes of a charging battery to form a parallel power supply. And, an output of the parallel power supply is further connected to a power input of a micro-power-consumption inductive controller. The solar battery not only provides driving power needed by the control valve, but also charges the charging battery.
Claims5
An inductive control valve using solar battery as a supplementary energy source, comprising an amorphous silicon solar battery, a NiMH battery pack, a micro-power-consumption inductive controller, and a main body for an inductive flushing valve or an inductive water faucet;
- said amorphous silicon solar battery being fixedly mounted on said main body of said inductive flushing valve or said inductive water faucet;
