Abstract

A multi-control automatic faucet includes a faucet body, a manual valve core, a solenoid valve core, a water flow sensor, a main sensor switch, and a controller. The water flow sensor is configured to detect whether water flows through manual valve core. When there is water flowing through the manual valve core, the controller controls the main sensor switch to be inactive. When there is no water flowing through the manual valve core, the controller controls the faucet body to spray water out through the solenoid valve core. The multi-control automatic faucet has two control modes, namely, a manual control mode and a sensor control mode. It is convenient for users to use.
