Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine des équipements de cuisines, en particulier les éviers, et a pour objet un évier muni d'un dispositif de rinçage et/ou de séchage, en particulier de verres ou analogues.The present invention relates to the field of kitchen equipment, in particular sinks, and relates to a sink provided with a rinsing and / or drying device, in particular glasses or the like.

Actuellement, les éviers existant sont généralement pourvus d'une ou de plusieurs cuves, avec ou sans égouttoir, lesdites cuves étant alimentées en eau et munies de bondes d'évacuation.Currently, existing sinks are generally provided with one or more tanks, with or without a drainer, said tanks being supplied with water and provided with drain outlets.

Ces éviers connus ne présentent aucun dispositif accessoire permettant notamment un rinçage de verres, l'implantation d'un tel dispositif présentant l'inconvénient de restreindre les surfaces et volumes utiles d'utilisation de la ou des cuves et de l'égouttoir.These known sinks do not have any accessory device allowing in particular a rinsing of glasses, the installation of such a device having the disadvantage of restricting the useful surfaces and volumes of use of the tank (s) and the drainer.

En outre, ces éviers existant ne présentent généralement aucun moyen permettant d'accélérer le séchage des verres et de la vaisselle après lavage.In addition, these existing sinks generally have no means of accelerating the drying of glasses and dishes after washing.

La présente invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.

Elle a, en effet, pour objet un évier caractérisé en ce qu'il est muni d'un dispositif de rinçage et/ou de séchage, en particulier de verres ou analogues, ledit dispositif étant disposé entre l'égouttoir et une cuve à un niveau intermédiaire entre celui de l'égouttoir et le fond de la cuve adjacente.It has, in fact, for its object a sink characterized in that it is provided with a rinsing and / or drying device, in particular with glasses or the like, said device being disposed between the drip tray and a one-bowl intermediate level between that of the drip tray and the bottom of the adjacent tank.

L'invention sera mieux comprise, grâce à la description ci-après, qui se rapporte à un mode de réalisation préféré, donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, et expliqué avec référence au dessin schématique annexé, dans lequel :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en plan d'un évier conforme à l'invention, et
  • la figure 2 est une vue en élévation latérale et en coupe de l'évier suivant la figure 1.
The invention will be better understood from the description below, which relates to a preferred embodiment, given by way of nonlimiting example, and explained with reference to the appended schematic drawing, in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of a sink according to the invention, and
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevation view in section of the sink according to FIG. 1.

Conformément à l'invention et comme le montrent plus particulièrement, à titre d'exemple, les figures 1 et 2 des dessins annexés, l'évier, essentiellement constitué par une cuve 1 et un égouttoir 2 est muni d'un dispositif 3 de rinçage et/ou de séchage, en particulier de verres ou analogues, ledit dispositif 3 étant disposé entre l'égouttoir 2 et la cuve 1 à un niveau intermédiaire entre celui de l'égouttoir 2 et le fond de la cuve 1 adjacente.According to the invention and as shown more particularly, by way of example, Figures 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings, the sink, essentially consisting of a tank 1 and a drainer 2 is provided with a device 3 for rinsing and / or drying, in particular glasses or the like, said device 3 being arranged between the drip tray 2 and the tank 1 at an intermediate level between that of the drip tray 2 and the bottom of the adjacent tank 1.

Le dispositif 3 est avantageusement monté sur un décrochement 4, légèrement en pente en direction de la cuve 1 et en prolongement de l'égouttoir 2, sous le niveau de ce dernier, et sensiblement au-dessus du fond de la cuve 1. Ainsi, l'eau provenant de l'égouttoir est dirigée directement vers la cuve 1 et l'eau utilisée par le dispositif 3 dans sa fonction de rince-verre ou analogues est également déversée vers la cuve 1.The device 3 is advantageously mounted on a recess 4, slightly sloping in the direction of the tank 1 and in extension of the drainer 2, below the level of the latter, and substantially above the bottom of the tank 1. Thus, the water coming from the drip tray is directed directly to the tank 1 and the water used by the device 3 in its function of glass rinse or the like is also poured towards the tank 1.

Le dispositif 3 est constitué, de préférence, sous forme d'un rince-verre à déclenchement par pression, de type connu. Un tel rince-verre émet un jet d'eau ou plusieurs jets d'eau lors de l'application avec pression d'un verre retourne sur sa face supérieure, qui peut être en forme de croisillon muni de buses de projection ou encore en forme d'une coupelle circulaire munie de telles buses.The device 3 is preferably constituted in the form of a pressure-triggered glass rinse, of known type. Such a glass rinse emits a water jet or several water jets during the pressure application of a glass returns on its upper face, which can be in the form of a spider provided with projection nozzles or even in the form of a circular cup provided with such nozzles.

Un tel rince-verre n'est pas représenté en détail sur les figures annexées, étant entendu que sa constitution et ses modes de branchement sont parfaitement accessibles à l'homme du métier.Such a glass rinse is not shown in detail in the appended figures, it being understood that its constitution and its connection methods are perfectly accessible to those skilled in the art.

Selon une variante de réalisation de l'invention, le dispositif 3 est constitué par un rince-verre, dont la conduite d'alimentation est reliée, par l'intermédiaire d'une vanne d'inversion, respectivement à une conduite d'alimentation en eau et à une conduite d'alimentation en air chaud reliée à un moyen de distribution d'air chaud, l'actionneur de la vanne de distribution du rince-verre déclenchant, en position de séchage, la mise en route du moyen de distribution d'air chaud. Ainsi, il est possible de réaliser, au moyen du même dispositif 3, dans un premier temps, un rinçage des verres, puis, après inversion au moyen de la vanne correspondante, la commande de cette vanne permettant simultanément la commande du moyen de distribution d'air chaud, un séchage des mêmes verres suite à un nouveau passage sur le dispositif dont les buses délivrent alors des jets d'air chaud.According to an alternative embodiment of the invention, the device 3 consists of a glass rinse, the supply line of which is connected, by means of a reversing valve, respectively to a water supply line and a hot air supply line connected to a hot air distribution means, the actuator of the glass rinse valve distributing, in the drying position, the start-up means of distributing hot air. Thus, it is possible to carry out, by means of the same device 3, firstly, a rinsing of the glasses, then, after inversion by means of the corresponding valve, the control of this valve allowing simultaneously the control of the means of distribution of hot air, drying of the same glasses following a new passage on the device, the nozzles of which then deliver jets of hot air.

Ce dispositif peut, bien entendu, également être utilisé pour le rinçage et/ou le séchage d'autres éléments de vaisselle, soit par adaptation de sa forme en vue de permettre l'obtention de jets suivant une distribution appropriée à la forme d'un large éventail de vaisselle.This device can, of course, also be used for rinsing and / or drying other items of tableware, either by adapting its shape in order to allow the production of jets according to a distribution suitable for the shape of a wide range of dishes.

Grâce à l'invention, il est possible de réaliser un évier muni d'un dispositif de rinçage et/ou de séchage de verres ou analogues, ce dispositif étant parfaitement intégré à l'ensemble de l'évier, sans provoquer de gêne lors du lavage dans la cuve adjacente, et ne nécessitant, pour son implantation, qu'un espace minimum, de sorte que les volumes disponibles sont pratiquement inchangés par rapport à des éviers existants.Thanks to the invention, it is possible to produce a sink provided with a device for rinsing and / or drying glasses or the like, this device being perfectly integrated into the whole of the sink, without causing discomfort during washing in the adjacent tank, and requiring, for its installation, only a minimum space, so that the available volumes are practically unchanged compared to existing sinks.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté au dessin annexé. Des modifications restent possibles, notamment du point de vue de la constitution des divers éléments ou par substitution d'équivalents techniques, sans sortir pour autant du domaine de protection de l'invention.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown in the accompanying drawing. Modifications remain possible, in particular from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without thereby departing from the scope of protection of the invention.
