Abstract (en)

[origin: US6019130A] PCT No. PCT/DE97/01316 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 18, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 18, 1999 PCT Filed Jun. 25, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/49875 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 31, 1997The invention relates to a water faucet fixture (1, 1', 1''), especially for institutional kitchens and medical establishments, whereby a hot water line and a cold water line (3, 4) open into a mixing and shut-off unit (2) with a lever for manual control, by means of which water is supplied at a certain mixed temperature and flow volume to a spout (6), whereby the water faucet fixture (1, 1', 1'') comprises another feed line (5) which, while bypassing the mixing and the shut-off unit (2), allows the supply of water from at least the cold water line (3) into the spout (6). This feed line (5) can be shut off by means of an electrically actuatable valve (9) that is controlled by the sensor signal of a proximity sensor (7, 7', 7''). The proximity sensor (7, 7', 7'') is located in the upper area of the fixture in such a manner that movements that serve to operate the fixture manually do not fall within its detection range (20, 20', 20''). This makes it possible to operate the fixture contact-free as well as manually. Advantageously, the fixture comprises two additional sensors (15, 16) that serve to regulate the temperature contact-free.
