ABSTRACT:
An automatic faucet apparatus comprises a drive control means wherein an intermediate drive section coupled to a motor as normally resiliently biased toward the original position is interlocked to a driving shaft coupled to a valve member with a play involved in the interlocking, so that, when the motor is energized to provide an actuating torque to the intermediate drive section and is thereafter deenergized, the intermediate drive section can reset to the original position without requiring any motor output, while the driving shaft is prevented from being affected by the resetting of the intermediate drive section due to the play involved.
