Description

  • The present invention refers to a kitchen fixture, specially intended for housing a garbage container, said fixture being designed to be built-in under a countertop, under a sink, cooking range or any other higher apparatus or fixture.
  • A fixture for the purpose set forth is already known by Spanish Utility Model ES 1043638, including a recipient swivel-mounted in the cavity of a low kitchen fixture, which can be coupled under a countertop. This fixture presents the drawback that the recipient is not easily extractable, which may create problems for the cleaning thereof. Furthermore, its use is relatively uncomfortable, given the tilted position that the recipient adopts when it is necessary to place the bags therein, to dump the garbage or the interior thereof, and to remove them once they are full, a position in which the cover also partially hinders said operations.
  • A domestic garbage sorting fixture is known by Spanish Utility Model number ES 200202167, designed to be assembled in a kitchen fixture, under a sink or the like, which comprises a recipient assembled inside of the fixture and which incorporates an upper gate hinged thereto which, in a closed position, acts as the upper part of the front of the fixture, whereas in its open position, it acts as a dumping ramp on the recipient. The fixture is provided with an upper gate operation mechanism. In this type of fixtures, the garbage container is not easily extractable, and access thereto, through the upper gate, may present drawbacks, especially when introducing relatively voluminous garbage.
  • The object of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks set forth by means of a fixture in which the garbage container is easily accessible and extractable, such that all necessary operations can be very easily carried out.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a fixture for the purposes set forth, which may include a high capacity garbage container with divisions for different kinds of garbage, or without these divisions, and which can further provide other uses or functions.
  • The fixture of the invention is constituted of a fixed body, an extractable body and a garbage container.
  • The fixed body is composed of at least two parallel walls and a lower bottom and incorporates a partition between said walls capable of acting as a cover for the container.
  • The extractable upper body is composed of a front panel and a bottom platform with support wheels, said panel and platform being hinged at their adjacent edges according to a shaft parallel to said edges, to permit the swivelling of the front panel with regard to the bottom platform between a closed position, in which they form approximately a right angle together, and an open position, in which the front panel is outwardly lowered, approximately in extension with the bottom platform, position in which the garbage container is perfectly accessible and extractable. The bottom platform incorporates a rocker lever assembled therein, according to a shaft parallel to that of the hinge between said platform and the front panel. Said lever outwardly projects through the lower platform and the front panel, to form an operation pedal.
  • With regard to the garbage container, it is open at its upper base and is provided with two lower support wheels resting on the bottom platform of the extractable body. As a result of these wheels, the container can be easily removed from the fixed body, which acts as a casing, when the front panel is in its lowered position, in extension with the bottom platform. When the container is inside the fixed body, the lever assembled on the bottom platform runs between the wheels of the container, such that acting on the pedal forming said rocker lever can achieve the lifting and removal of the container.
  • All the features set forth, as well as other features of the invention, as included in the claims, are explained below in greater detail with the aid of the attached drawings, which show a non-limiting embodiment.
  • In the drawings:
  • Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a kitchen fixture constituted according to the invention, in its closed position.
  • Figure 2 shows a side elevational view of the fixture of figure 1, in a closed position, wherein one of the sides has been omitted to show the inside thereof.
  • Figure 3 shows a view similar to figure 2, with the fixture in an open and removed position.
  • Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the fixed body.
  • Figure 5 shows a view similar to figure 4, wherein the front side-wall has been omitted.
  • Figure 6 shows a perspective view of the extractable body.
  • Figure 7 shows a perspective view of the garbage container.
  • The fixture shown in figure 1 has a right prismatic configuration, of a square or rectangular plan form, and comprises a fixed outer body, shown in figures 4 and 5, generally referenced with number 1, a extractable body shown in figure 6 and generally referenced with number 2, and a garbage container shown in figure 7 and generally referenced with number 3.
  • The fixed body 1 is composed of two side-walls 4, a lower bottom panel 5, and, optionally, an upper closure panel 6, as can be seen in figures 2 and 3.
  • The walls 4 can be joined also by means of intermediate cross members 7 and 8. A panel 9 is assembled between the walls 4, which panel can swivel about a rear shaft 10 and which will serve as a closure cover for the garbage container recipient, as will be explained below. The walls 4 are also internally provided with lower strips 11, close to the bottom panel 5, defining, with the latter, guides for steering the extractable body 2, as will be explained below.
  • The panel 9 can include an upper support 12 for a roll of garbage bags or the like.
  • As can be seen in figure 5, the bottom panel 5, from the front edge, is provided with recesses 13 for receiving sliding wheels of the extractable body.
  • As can be seen in figures 2, 3 and 6, the extractable body 2 is composed of a front panel 14 and of a bottom platform 15 with front 16 and rear 17 support wheels. The front panel 14 acts as a front closure door of the fixture, as can be seen in figure 1.
  • The front panel 14 and the platform 15 are hinged together at their adjacent edges by means of a hinge or hinge element 17, the adjacent edges being spaced for allowing the passage of a lever 18 between them which is hinged to the bottom panel 5 according to a shaft 19 parallel to that of the hinge 17. The lever 18 outwardly projects to configure an operating pedal 20. The platform 15 may include a front band 20 which will close the front of the fixture, as can be seen in figures 1 and 2, the lever 18 forming the pedal 20 projecting between it and the panel 14.
  • As can be seen in figure 2, when the extractable body is inside of the fixed body, the wheels 16 are housed in the front recesses 13 of the bottom 5.
  • The platform 15 can be provided on its rear part with partitions or supports 22 for fixing an object holder bucket 23.
  • Lastly, the container 3 intended for containing the garbage is open at the upper base and the lower part is provided with two support wheels 24, it also being possible to be provided with an extractable handle 25. It can internally be provided with divisionary partitions 26 to define different housings, intended for different kinds of garbage. Furthermore, the container 3 can be provided with hand grips 27 on the side-walls.
  • With the constitution mentioned above, the front panel 14 of the extractable body, in the closed position shown in figures 1 and 2, is in a position approximately perpendicular to the bottom platform 15, defining the front closure surface of the fixture. The front panel 14 and the upper cover 6 of the fixed body can be provided with fastening means for ensuring this closed position.
  • When intending to dump any garbage, the pedal 20 is acted on, causing the swivelling of the lever 18, which runs under the garbage container 3, between the wheels 24 thereof, causing its tilting and pushing the front panel 14 outwards, thus allowing easy access to the container 3.
  • The front panel 14 can be completely outwardly lowered, as seen in figure 3, a position in which the garbage container 3 can be removed, for example for the emptying or cleaning thereof.
  • Furthermore, the extractable body 2, defined by the front panel 14 and the platform 15, can be removed from the fixed body, as shown in figure 3, thus facilitating access to the container 3 as well as to the bucket 23 located behind said container.
  • The partition 9, if it is rotational about the shaft 10, will remain on the container 3, acting as a cover thereof, when the assembly is in the position of figure 2, whereas upon removing the container 3, the partition 9 will swivel downwards, to a position which may be limited by a stop.
  • For introducing and removing the extractable body, the platform 15 thereof will shift on the wheels 16 and 17, the longitudinal edges of the platform being steered by the strip or guide 11.
  • Definitively, with the fixture of the invention, by means of a simple constitution, a container is provided for garbage, which can be sorted, and which is easily accessible, for both dumping the garbage inside the container and removing the latter for the purpose of the emptying or cleaning thereof. Furthermore, the fixture can include an auxiliary bucket 24 for other recipients or utensils, as well as the upper support 12 for bags or the like.
  • The garbage container 3 can be provided with means for holding the bags intended for receiving the garbage near the upper edge of its walls and of the partitions 26.
