Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a system kittin which makes it possible to secure a space for cooking work and a space for storing foods, foods and dirt by effectively utilizing a limited space of a sink portion in the system kittin. It relates to a sink structure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, conventional kitchen sinks for homes and offices have a constant depth even if there are sink areas of various sizes. The space occupying the sink is often used as a food storage area before cooking or a temporary storage area for cooked or dirty food during cooking.

[0003]

However, in such a kitchen sink, since the work space for the usual cooking work and the sink portion are arranged side by side, it is necessary to secure a large work space for the cooking work. If this is the case, the sink area is inevitably narrowed, and the storage space for the above-described food storage area or the temporary storage area for cooked foods or dirt is difficult. On the other hand, if the storage area is sufficiently secured by increasing the sissy area, the work space required for the cooking work is necessarily narrowed, which will support the cooking work. An inconvenience arises in that it is difficult to secure the space and the storage space with sufficient space so as not to interfere with each other.

According to the present invention, a system kit is provided in which a limited space of a sink portion is effectively utilized, and both a cooking work space and a storage space are secured with a sufficient size so as not to interfere with each other. An object of the present invention is to provide a sink structure.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a sink structure in a system kitchen according to the present invention comprises a sink portion 1 having a predetermined size capable of washing dishes and groceries; A top plate 2 for recessing the portion 1 at a predetermined position, an engaging step 7 provided on an opening edge 6 of the sink portion 1, and at least front and rear edges of which can face the engaging step 7. While being formed by one auxiliary top plate 3,
A cooking plate 4 having an appropriate size and capable of covering the opening surface of the sink portion 1. The cooking plate 4 is fitted into the engagement step 7 so that the cooking plate 4
Are arranged at an appropriate height on the opening surface of the sink portion 1, a work space 9 is formed above the cooking plate 4, and a storage space 5 for foods and the like is provided below the cooking plate 4.
Is formed. Almost the entire opening surface of the sink 1 is a cooking plate 4
Thus, it can be configured to be covered.

[0006] However, the storage space 5 for food and the like includes a storage space for foodstuffs before cooking, a temporary storage space for cooked foods or dirty materials during cooking, and a temporary storage space for cooking utensils such as kitchen knives. Although there is no particular limitation on the object used in the storage space, it is a general term that broadly includes a space that can serve as a storage function for such an object. When the auxiliary top plate 3 is formed by a plurality of sheets, these auxiliary top plates 3 may be used individually. However, if necessary, the auxiliary top plates 3 may be connected in a foldable manner with a hinge or the like. It is possible.

[0007]

When the sink structure of the system kittin according to the present invention is used, the work space 9 by the cooking plate 4 and the storage space 5 for foods and the like are formed in two stages, so that both spaces are formed. Can be secured with a sufficient size without any hindrance to the cooking operation function and the storage function, so that both the cooking operation function and the storage function can be smoothly and sufficiently exhibited.

[0008]

The sink structure in the system kit according to the present invention has the above-described structure and operation, and therefore has the following effects. In other words, even in a kitchen sink where the depth of the sink is constant, the limited space can be effectively used, a large work space for the cooking work can be secured, and ordinary cooking work can be performed on the cooking plate. While it can be performed smoothly without any trouble, it can be secured with a sufficient size in the food storage area or the temporary storage area for cooked foods or dirt, so to speak, it is possible to provide a kitchen space that is friendly to workers It works. When the entire opening surface of the sink portion 1 is covered with the cooking plate 4, it is convenient particularly when it is desired to increase a cooking operation.

[0009]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an external view showing an embodiment of a sink structure in a system kit according to the present invention, and FIG.
FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view along a front opening edge of the sink portion in a use state, and FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view along a front-rear direction at a portion of the cooking plate of the sink portion in FIG.

In these figures, 1 is a predetermined size.
Designed, for example, 1,140m, the largest in the industry
The sink portion 1 is a m-width super jumbo sink portion, and the sink portion 1 is formed as a recess at a predetermined position on a top plate 2 serving as a base. The sink unit 1 is provided with a currant 8 so that dishes and foods can be washed in the sink unit 1, and a water distribution device is attached to the sink unit 1.

The sink portion 1 has a rectangular opening surface having a predetermined width and length in the depth direction in plan view.
The front and rear and left and right opening edge portions 6 serving as the upper edge of the sink portion 1 are provided with an engaging step portion 7 (a double engaging step portion in the drawing, but of course Needless to say, a single engagement step portion may be used). Then, an appropriate number of at least one rectangular plate-shaped auxiliary top plate 3 is fitted into the engagement step portion 7. In the drawings of the present embodiment, two auxiliary top plates 3 are provided.
In other words, although the cooking plate 4 is shown as being fitted with a part of the opening surface of the sink portion 1 left, the opening of the sink portion 1 can be Almost the entire surface can be covered with the cooking plate 4.

More specifically, each auxiliary top plate 3 has the same width and width.
The top and bottom edges of the auxiliary top plate 3 are respectively arranged at the front and rear opening edges 6 as clearly shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. (If necessary, a step which can be locked to the engaging step 7 may be provided also at the front and rear end edges of the auxiliary top plate 3). By fitting the two auxiliary top plates 3 in close contact with each other from the left opening edge 6, each auxiliary top plate 3 is restrained so as not to move in the front-rear direction, and is attached to the opening surface of the sink portion 1. One cooking plate 4 arranged at an appropriate height is formed.

As described above, when the cooking plate 4 is fitted into the engaging step 7, the cooking plate 4 has its left edge closely contacting the left opening edge 6 and its right edge. The opening has a suitable size and reaches a position where it can cover the opening surface of the sink portion 1 except for a part thereof (in this embodiment, approximately equal distances from the left and right opening edges 6 of the opening surface). The cooking plate 4 covers almost the left half of the opening surface of the sink portion 1 and keeps the substantially right half opened.

The cooking plate 4 is provided with a sufficient work space 9 in which upper and lower portions of the cooking plate 4 can be used for ordinary cooking operations, that is, on the upper side of the cooking plate 4. On the lower side, a storage space 5 that can be effectively used as a food storage area before cooking, a temporary storage area for cooked foods or dirt during cooking, and the like is formed.
