PURPOSE:To avoid the loss of calorie, by providing an automixer comprising valves respectively for cold water, solar hot water and heated water thereby mixing the cold water with the heated water in prescribed proportions in accordance with the difference of the solar hot water temperature and a desired supply hot water temperature. CONSTITUTION:The body 11 of the automixer A has a cold water inlet 12, a solar hot water inlet 13 and a heated water inlet 14 that are in communication with a cold water chamber 16, a solar hot water chamber 17 and a heated water chamber 18 respectively, the body 11 being also provided with a mixing chamber 15. A cold water valve seat 19, a solar hot water valve seat 20 and a heated water valve seat 21 are provided, and the valve 23 for cold water, the valves 24, 24' for solar hot water and the valve 25 for heated water are fit on an operation shaft 22. By the movement of the operation shaft 22, the closing and opening of holes of respective valve seats 19-21 and the degree of the opening are adjusted. Thus, according to the difference of the temperature of the solar hot water and a desired hot water supply temperature, prescribed quantities of the cold water and the heated water are automatically mixed, and therefore the calorie in the solar hot water utilized in a maximum manner to avoid the loss of calorie. |
