The schematic diagram which showed the attachment or detachment structure of the side wall part 4 in the Example of this invention. Schematic cross-sectional view of a state in which the chopstick stand 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is attached to a sink or the like

FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a chopstick stand 1 in an embodiment of the present invention.
The side surface of the chopstick stand 1 is constituted by a wire frame 2, and a bottom plate 3 is attached to the bottom surface. The attachment of the wire frame 2 and the bottom plate 3 is performed by welding or adhesion, but the method is not limited. A side wall 4 is detachably incorporated inside the wire frame 2, and a cutlery such as chopsticks, spoons, and forks is stood and stored inside the side wall 4.
At this time, the side wall portion 4 is merely placed inside the wire frame 2, is configured separately from the wire frame 2 and the bottom plate 3, and is detachable.
Thereby, the cylindrical side wall part 4 can be cleaned by inserting a cleaning tool such as a hand or a sponge from the openings on both sides in a detached state, and the inside thereof can be easily cleaned. . In addition, since the bottom plate 3 is also connected only to the wire frame 2, there is no boundary between the bottom plate and the side wall, which is difficult to clean because a cleaning tool such as a sponge does not reach, and can be easily cleaned. it can.

  The wire frame 2, the bottom plate 3, and the side wall portion 4 are preferably made of stainless steel. By using stainless steel, the chemical resistance and heat resistance are improved, and it is possible to wash with a dishwasher or dishwasher. Moreover, it is excellent in weather resistance, hardness, and abrasion resistance, and is hygienic.

FIG. 2 shows a side view of the chopstick stand 1 in the embodiment of the present invention.
A hook 5 is attached to the wire frame 2. As a result, the chopstick stand 1 is used by being attached to a wire storage or drain basket provided in the sink, a cabinet having a drain function, a dishwasher or the like.
Further, the chopstick stand 1 does not necessarily have to be attached by the hook 5, but can be used independently.

FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a structure for attaching and detaching the side wall portion 4 in the embodiment of the present invention.
As described above, the side wall 4 is only inserted and placed inside the wire frame 2 and can be attached and detached. When removing, it can be easily removed by simply pulling it upward.
At this time, since the innermost surface of the wire frame 2 is composed of the vertical wire frame 21, the side wall portion 4 is not caught by the wire frame 2 and can be removed smoothly.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the bottom plate 3 is provided with a plurality of bottom plate holes 6. The side wall 4 is also provided with a plurality of side wall holes 7. As a result, water does not accumulate on the bottom surface and can flow out to the outside of the chopstick rest 1. Further, since water hardly stays on the bottom surface, there is an effect of suppressing hygienic growth on the bottom surface and generation of slime and mold, and maintaining hygiene.

FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a state in which the chopstick stand 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is attached to a sink or the like.
The chopstick stand 1 is attached to a sink or the like by a hook 5. At this time, the chopstick stand 1 is inclined forward due to the weight of the side wall 3.
Thereby, even when a wet object is accommodated, water does not easily remain in the chopstick rest 1 because water flows out from the gap between the side wall portion 3 and the bottom surface 2.
Further, the same effect can be obtained by inclining the bottom surface 3 in advance instead of inclining forward in the attached state.

  As mentioned above, although the Example of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to said Example. For example, it can be used not only for a chopstick stand but also for a toothbrush used in a bathroom vanity. The holes provided in the bottom and side walls are not limited to the form and number as shown in the figure, and may be appropriately designed.

The material is preferably stainless steel, but part of it may be stainless steel or all of it may be made of resin.
Furthermore, instead of the hook 5, the attachment method can be changed as appropriate, such as attachment with a suction cup or hanging with a string. However, in order to incline the container, it is preferable that the container and the attachment member are rotatably attached. .
