Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a kitchen,
In particular, it relates to a face-to-face kitchen equipped with a counter section.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a face-to-face kitchen equipped with a counter portion is known (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 11-216029 and 2001-327344). Further, it is known that a drainer and a storage portion are provided in a space behind a top plate of a kitchen sink (see Japanese Utility Model Publication Nos. 56-5960 and 57-72945).

[0003]

In the conventional kitchen,
Since the kitchen provided with the counter section is provided with the counter, it becomes difficult to use the space behind the sink, and there are problems such as poor usability. On the other hand, a kitchen provided with a drainer and a storage part in the rear portion of the top plate of the sink has a problem that it is difficult to use as a face-to-face kitchen even if the drainer and the storage part can be used, and the usability is poor in the case of serving.

In short, in the conventional kitchen, the kitchen provided with the counter section uses only the counter, and the kitchen provided with the drainer and the storage section in the rear portion of the top plate of the sink has only to use them. By functionally associating the counter part and the rear part of the top plate of the sink, the respective functions can be more synergistically exerted, and the space of the counter part and the rear part of the top plate can be effectively utilized respectively. There was no kitchen. Similarly, in the conventional kitchen, there is no kitchen that functionally associates the counter section with the back guard of the sink.

As described above, the present invention has not been conceived in the related art, and the counter portion in the kitchen and the rear portion of the top plate of the sink (a storage space behind the top plate and a back guard).
It is to realize a user-friendly kitchen equipped with a face-to-face counter section that can functionally associate the and with each other and exert their functions synergistically.

[0006]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is directed to a kitchen provided with a counter section on the upper rear side of a sink section and a cooking section on which articles can be placed.
A mobile shelf is attached to the counter unit, and the mobile shelf is configured to be movable between the sink unit and the cooking unit.

The movable shelf is formed in a substantially L-shaped cross section, and is movably supported by being bridged between the upper surface of the counter portion, the sink portion and a back guard standing upright behind the cooking portion. It may be configured to have.

The movable rack may be provided with a draining rack, and the draining rack may be provided with drainage means for draining the drainage to the sink section.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a counter plate on the upper rear side of a sink part, on the upper surface of which a product can be placed, so that the counter plate of the counter part can slide in the front-rear direction. There is provided a kitchen, which is formed below the counter plate and has a storage portion that is opened to penetrate in the front-rear direction.

According to the present invention, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a counter plate of the counter section is rotatably formed in a kitchen provided with a counter section on the upper rear side of the sink section on which articles can be placed. There is provided a kitchen characterized in that a storage device for articles is attached to the back surface of the counter plate.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of a kitchen according to the present invention will be described below based on embodiments with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1) FIG. 1 is a view for explaining Embodiment 1 of the kitchen according to the present invention. FIG. 1A shows the first embodiment.
1 shows the entire kitchen 1, and FIG. 1B shows a cross section of the main part thereof. The kitchen 1 is a face-to-face type kitchen, and includes a top plate 2, a sink part 3, a cooking part 4 (a kitchen top plate part between the sink and the gas range), a storage part 5 under the top plate, a hood part 6 and a counter. It has a section 7 and the like.

The counter section 7 includes a sink section 3 and a cooking section 4.
The counter plate 8 is provided on the upper rear side of the table and on which articles such as dishes and dishes can be placed. The counter unit 7 can be accessed from a dining room (or a living room serving as a living room) behind the kitchen 1.

Below the counter plate 8 and behind the sink portion 3 and the cooking portion 4, a back guard 10 is provided so as to stand on the rear edge rising portion 9 of the top plate 2.
As shown in FIG. 1B, the back guard 10 includes a main body portion 11 having a substantially rectangular cross section and a guide portion 1 having a substantially inverted L-shaped cross section.
It is formed integrally with 2. The upper surface of the main body portion 11 serves as a track portion 13, and a running wheel retaining edge 14 to be described later is provided at the front edge thereof so as to project therefrom.

A movable rack 15 having a substantially L-shaped cross section is movably supported on the upper surface of the counter plate 8 and the back guard 10 standing upright behind the sink portion 3 and the cooking portion 4,
It is detachably attached. The moving shelf 15 is movable on the counter plate 8 between the sink unit 3 and the cooking unit 4. As shown in FIG. 1B, the movable rack 15 having a substantially L-shaped cross section is formed of a horizontal portion 16 and a vertical portion 17.

A rear end edge of the horizontal portion 16 of the movable shelf 15 is folded back inward, and a traveling wheel 19 that travels on the upper surface of the counter plate 8 is attached to the folded edge portion 18. Then, the lower end edge of the vertical portion 17 of the movable shelf 15 is folded back to the upper side, and a traveling wheel 21 traveling on the track portion 13 is attached to the folded edge portion 20.

Since the first embodiment has such a structure, the movable rack 15 is mounted on the counter section 7 as shown in FIGS. 1 (a) and 1 (b), and the traveling wheels 19 and 21 are connected to the counter plate 8. By traveling on the upper part and the track part 13, the space between the sink part 3 side and the cooking part 4 side can be moved in the left-right direction for use.

Therefore, from the kitchen 1 side and the dining room side, the user moves articles 22 such as tableware and dishes to the moving shelf 1
5 and can be moved between the cooking section 4 side and the sink section 3 side. For example, from the kitchen 1 side, the user puts the dish cooked in the cooking section 4 on the moving shelf 15 and easily moves it to the sink section 3 side, and the user further sets the tableware in the empty space of the counter plate 8. Items such as food and dishes 22
Can be placed, the entire counter portion 7 can be effectively utilized, and cooking work and serving work can be facilitated.

Further, when dishes and the like after meals are placed on the movable shelf 15 from the dining room and placed on the cooking section 4 side, they can be easily moved to the sink section 3 side.
This makes it easier to clean up after eating. As described above, according to the kitchen 1 according to the first embodiment, not only can the movable shelf 15 be moved left and right to be utilized functionally, but also the movable shelf 15 can be moved closer to effectively utilize the space of the counter section 7. You can
