DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a sink.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 9, a conventional sink of this type is provided with a drain port 2 in the center of the bottom of a water tank 1 and a rubber lid 3 for closing the drain port 2 is detachable. And a gap 4 for water passage is provided at the center of the rubber lid 3.

[0003]

However, in the above-described configuration, as shown in FIG.
When water is placed, the drain port 2 is closed and water accumulates in the water tank 1, and when the washing tub 5 is not placed in the water tank 1, the chopsticks are inserted through the water gap 4 of the rubber lid 3. There has been a problem that the usability is one step worse, for example, a spoon, cooking materials, etc. fall into the drain port 2 and the bottom surface of the water tank 1 cannot be used widely.

Further, the rubber lid 3 has a problem that it is not easy to get dirty and is difficult to clean, so that it does not have a clean feeling, which is an important element required for a kitchen, and its appearance is not beautiful.

The present invention has been made to solve such a conventional problem, and has as its object to provide an easy-to-use and clean sink.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, a sink according to the present invention is provided near a rising wall of a water tank.
A drain port is provided on the bottom of the water tank , a drain port is closed on this drain port, and a flat lid that is substantially flush with the bottom of the water tank is detachably provided, and at least a part of the periphery of the lid. A small gap for water flow is provided.

[0007]

In the sink of the present invention, a drain is provided on the bottom of the water tank close to the rising wall of the water tank, so that a relatively large space can be secured at the center of the bottom of the water tank. Closed, the flat lid that is substantially flush with the bottom of the water tank is detachably provided, so that a wider space can be secured in the bottom of the water tank, the appearance is improved, and the water tank around the lid is also improved. At least part of the side close to the rising wall is arranged so as to be continuous with the drain port.
A small water gap leading to the drainage guideway
Drainage is performed without water accumulation, and chopsticks, spoons, cooking materials, and the like can be prevented from falling into the drain outlet, thereby improving usability.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. In the figure, 6 is a water tank,
A bulging portion 8 bulging outward is formed on the rising wall 7 at the rear. A drain port 9 is provided on the rear side of the depth center line of the water tank 6, a step portion 10 is formed at the periphery of the drain port 9, and a refuse storage device 12 equipped with a garbage basket 11 is provided below the drain port 9. Provided. 13 closes the drain 9
A flat lid that is substantially flush with the bottom of the water tank 6,
It is provided detachably on the peripheral step portion 10. At the rear part between the lid 13 and the bottom of the water tank 6, the rear side face is provided with a drainage guideway 1.
4 is provided with a water gap 15. 16 is a washing tub and 17 is a faucet.

In the above construction, since the drainage port 9 is provided behind the center line of the depth of the water tank 6, a relatively large space can be secured at the front of the bottom of the water tank 6, and the drainage port 9
The water outlet 9 is closed, and a flat lid 13 that is substantially flush with the bottom surface of the water tank 6 is detachably provided, so that a wider article mounting space can be secured on the bottom surface of the water tank 6.
The appearance is improved, and at least a portion around the lid 13
In the rear part, a drainage plan that is
Since the small water gap 15 communicating with the inner passage is provided, the drainage is performed without the accumulation of water , so that chopsticks, spoons, cooking materials and the like are less likely to fall into the drain port 9, and the usability is improved.

Further, since the drain guide path 14 is provided on the side close to the bulging portion 8, the worker can see the refuse basket 11 in the refuse storage device 12 and can work comfortably.

Further, since the lid 13 is movable, small garbage such as tea leaves and rice grinds flow from the drainage guide path 14 at the rear portion between the lid 13 and the bottom of the water tank 6 during normal use. When throwing away relatively large garbage into the garbage basket 11, the lid 13 is moved backward as shown in FIG. 3 or the bulging portion 8 bulging outward on the rising wall 7 at the rear of the water tank 6. Garbage can flow into or into the garbage basket 11 below the drain port 9. Further, when washing operation is performed by storing water in the water tank 6, the water storage lid 20 can be set on the garbage basket 11 as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG.

Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
This will be described with reference to FIGS. In the embodiment of FIG. 4, a small water passage hole 15 is provided around the lid 13.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, a small water passage hole 15 is provided around the lid 13 and a hinge 21 allows the rear portion of the lid 13 and the water tank 6 to be leaned up by a hinge 21. The operability at the time of opening the body 13 is improved.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, when the swelling portion 8 is provided with a storage box 18 for detergent, soap or the like, and the storage box 18 is provided with a support portion 19 for supporting the lid 13, and the lid 13 stands upright. The lid 13 is stably supported by the support 19 of the storage box 18.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the lid 13 is formed in a bellows configuration and is moved rearward so that it can be folded freely and the drain port 9 is opened. Reference numeral 22 denotes a stop projection for holding the lid 13 in the folded state.

[Contents of correction]

In the above embodiment, the drain 9 is connected to the water tank 6.
The drain port 9 is provided on one side of the water tank 6 as shown in FIG. 8, that is, close to the rising wall of the water tank 6 as shown in FIG. the drainage guide passage 14 on the side surface of formed, there is the structure Gomikago 11 of waste storage device 12 does not touch the eyes of the operator
Has the same effect .

[0017]

As is clear from the above embodiments, the sink according to the present invention has a drain at the bottom of the tank close to the rising wall of the tank, so that a relatively large space is provided at the center of the bottom of the tank. The drain port is closed at the drain port, and a flat lid that is substantially flush with the bottom of the water tank is detachably provided, so that a wider space for placing articles can be secured at the bottom of the water tank. with, to improve the appearance, also
At least a part of the periphery of the lid,
A small flow of water to a continuous drainage guideway
Since the gap is provided, drainage is performed without accumulation of water, and chopsticks, spoons, cooking materials, and the like can be prevented from falling into the drain outlet, thereby improving usability. In addition, there is also an effect that drainage, cooking materials, and the like that have flowed into the water tank are guided by the rising wall of the water tank, and efficiently flow into the drain port.
