Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a sink storage rack which is attached to the wall surface of a water tank constituting a sink and can store detergent containers and the like. (EN) A storage rack for a sink that does not need to be cleaned and can be easily and reliably cleaned.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 5, in order to improve usability, a water tank 2 having a bulge portion 3 is partially provided,
A sink 1 including a storage container 4 attached to the bulging portion 3 is known. The sink 1 shown in FIG. 5 is disclosed in Japanese Patent Registration No. 2982358, but in addition, it is also disclosed in JP-A-4-330129, JP-A-5-79075, and JP-A-10-102.
Japanese Patent No. 559 describes a sink including a water tank having a bulged part in such a part and a storage container attached to the bulged part.

[0003]

However, since the storage container 4 in the sink 1 disclosed in the above-mentioned Patent Registration No. 2982358 has a container shape with an open upper end, the storage container 4 from the house maker, etc. It has been pointed out that it has poor cleanability, that is, it is not easy to clean and lacks in cleanliness.

In the sinks described in JP-A-4-330129 and JP-A-5-79075, the bulging portion provided in a part of the water tank is provided with storage containers in two upper and lower stages. However, in these sinks as well, as in the sink 1 shown in FIG. 5, the storage container is inferior in cleanability.

Further, in the sink described in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-102559, an auxiliary flange is provided on a storage basket attached to the bulging portion so that the cooking plate can slide on the upper surface of the water tank. Is. The storage basket is configured such that a peripheral portion of the storage basket is engaged with a step portion formed on an upper peripheral portion of the water tank, and a part of the peripheral portion is engaged with an engagement protrusion provided on the step portion. Because
Although the cleaning performance of the storage basket is improved, rattling, particularly rattling in the vertical direction, is likely to occur, which is difficult to use.

The present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and a storage rack for a sink, which is attached to a wall surface of a water tank constituting a sink and can store a detergent container and the like, can be easily attached and detached. The purpose of the present invention is to prevent rattling in the event of a rattling and to make cleaning easy and reliable.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in the invention described in claim 1, a sink rack for a sink attached to the wall of a water tank constituting a sink is provided on the wall. A linear member that includes a locking receiving portion or a locking portion that can be locked to the locking portion or the locking receiving portion, and a mounting portion on which an article to be stored is mounted, and at least the mounting portion described above. It is characterized by being configured by. As described in claim 2, a bulging portion is formed in a part of the water tank, and the storage rack can be attached to the bulging portion.

Further, as described in claim 3, the storage rack has an upper portion with a bottom portion and a pair of holding portions continuous from both ends of the bottom portion, and the bottom portion and the pair of narrowing portions. It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which a cutting board storage section that allows the cutting board to be stored between is provided.

Further, as described in claim 4, the members forming the bottom portion and the sandwiching portion forming the cutting board housing portion can be linear members.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An embodiment of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.

1 to 4 show a storage rack for a sink according to an embodiment of the present invention. The storage rack 5 includes a substantially rectangular upper frame 7, locking pieces 11 provided at two positions in the depth direction of the upper frame 7 in the longitudinal direction (left and right directions in FIGS. 2 and 3), and A plurality of (11 in the illustrated example) substantially U-shaped first frame members 9 provided at appropriate intervals over the length direction of the upper frame 7, and these first frame members. 9
A plurality of (two in the case of the illustrated example) second frame members 10 having a substantially long U-shape, which are joined to an intermediate portion forming the bottom of the above. The upper frame 7 and the first and second frame members 9,
Each of 10 is made of a wire made of stainless steel.

The upper frame 7 and the first and second frame members 9,
In the sink storage rack 5 configured by 10, a storage member (not shown) such as a detergent container is provided in the pocket portion 13 formed by the upper frame 7 and the first and second frame members 9, 10. Can be placed. That is, the intermediate portion of each of the first and second frame members 9 and 10 forms a mounting portion of the storage rack 5.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the locking piece 11 is formed with a substantially daruma-shaped locking hole 6 having a large diameter in the inner part and a small diameter in the front part. 6 is engaged with an engaging projection (not shown) provided on the peripheral surface of the bulging portion 3 (see FIG. 5) of the sink 1.

A cutting board accommodating portion 14 is provided in the inner portion of the upper frame 7 in the longitudinal direction through a connecting member 12 also made of a stainless steel wire. The cutting board storage portion 14 is formed by a pair of sandwiching portions 15 obtained by bending both ends of a square frame-shaped stainless steel wire at substantially right angles, and an intermediate portion of the square frame-shaped stainless steel wire. It has a bottom portion 16 and a bottom rod 17 joined to the bottom portion 16 and also serving as a reinforcing member. The connecting member 12 is joined to the bottom rod 17.

When the storage rack 5 for the sink according to the present embodiment configured as described above is used, first, the engaging protrusions formed on the peripheral surface of the bulging portion 3 forming the sink 1 are engaged with the engaging protrusions. The locking hole 6 of the stopper 11 is locked. For this locking, first, the locking convex portion is inserted into the large-diameter hole portion, and then the storage rack 5 is pushed toward the inner portion, and the locking convex portion is stopped in the small-diameter hole portion. This effectively prevents the storage rack 5 from rattling.

After the storage rack 5 is attached to the bulging portion as described above, a member to be stored such as a detergent container is placed on the placing portion. In addition, by storing a cutting board (not shown) between the pair of sandwiching portions 15 forming the cutting board storage section 14, the cutting board can be stored in an orderly manner and easily taken out.

The storage rack 5 for the sink according to this embodiment is
Since the storage rack 5 is configured as described above, when the storage rack 5 is attached to the sink 1, the small-diameter hole portion of the locking hole 6 and the locking projection are locked to rattle the storage rack 5. Sticking is prevented. Further, since the storage rack 5 is composed of a wire made of stainless steel, it can be easily and surely cleaned and has a good sense of cleanliness. As a result, the practical effect is great.

The locking piece 11 provided on the storage rack 5
It is also possible to form a locking convex portion and a locking receiving portion such as a locking hole on the peripheral surface of the bulging portion. Further, in the illustrated example, the back portion of the storage rack 5 is flat, but it may be curved. The shape of such a back surface part is matched with the shape of the water tank which comprises a bulge part or a sink. This is a design matter only.

[0019]

The storage rack for the sink according to the present invention,
Since it is configured as described above, the attachment / detachment can be performed easily and surely, rattling can be prevented, and moreover, it is possible to easily clean and improve the cleanliness. Therefore, the practical effect is large.
