PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an automatic hot-water-supply combination faucet capable of eliminating the arrangement of a power cord when a main body is installed, dispensing with labor for changing a battery, and preventing an electric shock from being caused by the corruption of equipment or the like. SOLUTION: The automatic combination faucet is provided with a first inlet channel 1 for introducing hot water, a second inlet channel 2 for introducing water, an out let channel 11, a mixing valve 5 for mixing the hot water and the water introduced from the inlet channels 1 and 2 so as to lead the mixed hot water out to the outlet channel 11, a motor-operated water shut off valve 6 for discharging/stopping the mixed hot water led out from the mixing valve 5 through the outlet channel 11, an electric flowmeter 7 for measuring the volume of the mixed hot water, a temperature sensor 8 for detecting the temperature of the mixed hot water, and a control part 17 for controlling the valves 5 and 6 according to the values detected by the flowmeter 7 and the temperature sensor 8. A generating set 12, installed in the combination faucet, is driven for power generation by the hot water and the water circulated through the mixing valve 5 in order to supply the valves 5 and 6, the flowmeter 7, the temperature sensor 8, and the control part 17 with power for operating them. |
