  • Patent number: 12286775
    Abstract: A water discharge structure and a sensor-operated water discharge device are disclosed. The water discharge structure includes a valve core seat having independent cold water, hot water and sensor-operated mixed water flow channels. An accommodating chamber is disposed inside the sensor-operated mixed water flow channel for accommodating a solenoid valve that controls opening and closing of the sensor-operated mixed water flow channel. The valve core seat has a cold water outlet, a hot water outlet, a sensor-operated mixed water inlet and a mechanically-operated mixed water inlet that are located on a same end face of the valve core seat. It is convenient to assemble the valve core seat and the valve core of the sensor-operated water discharge device. The overall assembly of the sensor-operated water discharge device can be realized when it leaves the factory, and the installation operation can be simplified for the user.
