연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

1. A water delivery device in fluid communication with at least one source of water positioned below a mounting deck, the water delivery device comprising: a base portion in fluid communication with the at least one source of water;a pull-out wand portion in fluid communication with the base portion and having at least one water output, the pull-out wand portion being moveably between a first position proximate to the base portion and a second position spaced apart from the base portion;a sensor supported by the pull-out wand portion;a fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor supported by the pull-out wand portion, the fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor adapted to detect a movement of an object contacting the pull-out wand portion along an exterior of the pull-out wand portion;an automatic mixing valve interposed between the at least one water output of the pull-out wand portion and the at least one source of water, the automatic mixing valve receiving water from at least a hot source of water and a cold source of water, the automatic mixing valve being operable to regulate both temperature and flow of water to the at least one water output and being operable to permit communication of water provided by the at least one source of water to the at least one water output of the pull-out wand portion in a first configuration and to prevent communication of water provided by the at least one source of water to the at least one water output in a second configuration; andan electronic controller operably coupled to the sensor, operably coupled to the fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor, and operably coupled to the automatic mixing valve, the electronic controller causing the automatic mixing valve to be in the first configuration in response to a first indication from the sensor, wherein the automatic mixing valve regulates both the temperature and the flow of water to the at least one water output based on input from the electronic controller, the input being based on the fluid characteristic electronic touch sensor which provides a fluid characteristic input for one of the temperature and the flow of water. 2. The water delivery device of claim 1, the sensor is one of a proximity sensor and a touch sensor. 3. The water delivery device of claim 1, wherein the sensor is a proximity sensor and the first indication is a detection of an object in a detection zone. 4. The water delivery device of claim 3, wherein the proximity sensor includes an infrared emitter which emits infrared radiation into the detection zone and a detector configured to receive infrared radiation reflected from the detection zone. 5. The water delivery device of claim 4, wherein the detection zone includes an area below an end face of the pull-out wand portion. 6. The water delivery device of claim 1, wherein the sensor is a touch sensor. 7. The water delivery device of claim 6, wherein the first indication is a detection of a touch. 8. The water delivery device of claim 6, wherein the touch sensor monitors a region of a housing. 9. The water delivery device of claim 1, wherein the fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor is a slide sensor. 10. The water delivery device of claim 1, wherein the fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor includes a rigid base member including a non-linear surface; and at least two spaced apart conductors positioned along the non-linear surface, the at least two spaced apart conductors form a capacitive sensor. 11. The water delivery device of claim 10, wherein the rigid base member is a printed circuit board and the non-linear surface is an edge of the printed circuit board. 12. The water delivery device of claim 10, wherein the non-linear surface is curved. 13. The water delivery device of claim 10, wherein the pull-out wand portion includes a housing, the housing including a cover and the non-linear surface of the touch sensor having a profile which matches a profile of the cover. 14. The water delivery device of claim 1, wherein the automatic mixing valve is positioned below the mounting deck. 15. A water delivery device for use by a user, the water delivery device being in fluid communication with at least one source of water positioned below a mounting deck, the water delivery device comprising: a base portion in fluid communication with the at least one source of water;a pull-out wand portion in fluid communication with the base portion and having at least one water output, the pull-out wand portion being moveably between a first position proximate to the base portion and a second position spaced apart from the base portion;a valve interposed between the at least one water output of the pull-out wand portion and the at least one source of water, the valve being operable to permit communication of water provided by the at least one source of water to the at least one water output of the pull-out wand portion in a first configuration and to prevent communication of water provided by the at least one source of water to the at least one water output in a second configuration;an in water sensor which detects if the user is contacting the water exiting the at least one water output of the pull-out wand portion;a fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor supported by the pull-out wand portion, the fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor adapted to detect a movement of an object contacting the pull-out wand portion along an exterior of the pull-out wand portion;one of a proximity sensor and a touch sensor, the controller causing the valve to be in the first configuration in response to a first indication from the one of the proximity sensor and the touch sensor; andan electronic controller operably coupled to the in water sensor and operably coupled to the valve, the electronic controller causing the valve to remain in the first configuration in response to the in water sensor detecting the user being in contact with the water exiting the at least one water output of the pull-out wand portion, wherein the electronic controller causing the valve to provide water at a first flow rate in response to the first indication from the one of the proximity sensor and the touch sensor and to provide water at a second flow rate in response to the in water sensor detecting the user being in contact with the water exiting the at least one water output of the pull-out wand portion, the electronic controller further controlling a fluid characteristic of the water exiting the at least one water output based on an input of the fluid characteristic input electronic touch sensor. 16. The water delivery device of claim 15, wherein the second flow rate is higher than the first flow rate. 17. The water delivery device of claim 15, wherein the in water sensor is a capacitive sensor.
