  • Publication number: 20160340879
    Abstract: A touch-free faucet provides control over flow and/or temperature by detecting object presence in one or more detection zones. In one embodiment, the faucet provides for continuous-flow water flow wherein the spout of the faucet pours water for a period of time regardless of whether an object is detected in a detection zone, such as the sink, during that time. The faucet may initiate continuous-flow based on the detection of an object in another detection zone, and may cause continuous-flow operation for a determined period of time based on the amount of substantially uninterrupted time during which an object is detected in a detection zone associated with initiating continuous-flow mode. Furthermore, the faucet may provide for user-programmable sensitivity affecting the amount of continuous-flow time that is determined based on the amount of time that the faucet detects object in the continuous-flow mode detection zone.

  • Publication number: 20160032572
    Abstract: A sensor for use in a touch-free faucet that can be installed from outside in through a wall of a faucet via a receiving hole. The sensor can further include an emitter and a detector mounted on an electronic circuit board. The electronic circuit board can also pass through the receiving hole of the faucet. The emitter and the detector can be elevated from the surface of the electronic circuit board. In an embodiment, legs or stilts can be used to elevate the emitter and the detector. Elevating the detector and the emitter can increase available surface area on the electronic circuit board for mounting other electronic circuit elements.
