  In view of the fact that municipal waste is being collected relatively frequently in recent years, as a trend in the structure of the sink, there has been a search for a direction in which garbage cannot be stored in the trap for a long time. Yes. Therefore, the garbage receiving basket for collecting the garbage in the trap is also directed toward a smaller capacity as compared with the conventional one, and is devised so as to be cleaned frequently to keep clean.

  However, in the case of a metal net cage, there is a problem that even if it is washed with a scrubber or the like, the holes are clogged. In addition, in the case of a hard synthetic resin basket, it is difficult to clean with a brush because of its thickness as a whole. There is a problem.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the problems of the conventional garbage receiving basket, and an object thereof is to disclose an improved garbage receiving basket that can satisfactorily clean garbage residues with a brush or the like. .

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention is a sink garbage receiving basket for a sink constituted by a basket main body having a bowl-shaped depression formed of a side wall surface and a bottom surface, with an annular flange extending at the upper opening edge. The entire surface is integrally formed of a soft synthetic resin so that the front and back can be reversed, and a plurality of annular protrusions are provided at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction of the outer surface of the side wall surface, A large number of linear protrusions are provided at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction of the inner surface of the peripheral wall surface, and a large number of through holes are formed by annular protrusions and linear protrusions that cross and join inside and outside. A network structure is formed on the wall surface, and a plurality of protrusions are provided on the outer surface of the bottom surface in parallel to the diameter at predetermined intervals, and the protrusion of the outer surface is formed on the inner surface of the bottom surface. Multiple protrusions in a direction intersecting with the stripe at a predetermined angle with a predetermined interval There is provided, crossing in and out, it was adopted means of forming a network structure on the bottom surface to form a plurality of through holes by bonding to ribs.

  Moreover, the means which the space | interval of the protrusion provided in the outer peripheral surface of the said side peripheral wall surface and a bottom face, and the space | interval of the protrusion provided in each inner surface is the mutually same space | interval.

  On the other hand, the interval between the protrusions provided on the outer side surfaces of the side peripheral wall surface and the bottom surface, and the interval between the protrusions provided on the respective inner side surfaces are set larger than the interval between the outer side protrusions. Adopted means.

  And the means that the crossing angle of the protrusion which crosses inside and outside is 90 degree | times was employ | adopted in the mesh structure of the said bottom face.

  Separately, in the mesh structure of the bottom surface, a means was adopted in which the crossing angle of the ridges crossing inside and outside is an angle larger than 45 degrees and smaller than 90 degrees.

  In the present invention, as described above, it is composed of a soft synthetic resin material that can be turned upside down, and the mesh structure of the side wall surface and the bottom surface is composed of ridges intersecting each other, so the garbage receiving basket can be easily turned over. Further, the ridges constituting the front and back meshes are straight lines. Therefore, at the time of cleaning, the dirt can be removed by applying a brush in the circumferential direction on the peripheral wall surface and brushing in the diametrical direction on the bottom surface while maintaining a steady state at the beginning. Next, reverse the front and back of the garbage basket, turn it over, brush the wall in the vertical direction, and brush the bottom in the diametrical direction to remove dirt as well, so keep it clean. It becomes possible to do.

  In addition, by turning it over, it is possible to easily clean the inner bottom corner, which has conventionally been difficult to clean.

  In addition, the front and back ridges may be provided at the same interval, but even if the interval between the ridges on the inner surface is such that dust cannot pass through and the interval between the ridges on the outer side is wider than this, Since there is almost no difference in the operation, it is possible to save the amount of material used, and to lower the manufacturing cost.

(A) is a plan view of a sink garbage receiving basket according to the present invention, (B) is a partial cross-sectional view thereof, (C) is a bottom view, and (D) is a side cross-sectional view. (A) is an enlarged partial sectional view of the side wall surface of the sink garbage receiving basket according to the present invention, and (B) is an enlarged partial sectional view of the bottom surface.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the sink garbage receiving basket shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a car body, which is integrally formed of a soft synthetic resin by injection molding or the like. This car body 1 has a bowl shape having a relatively shallow concave recess 2, and an annular flange 3 corresponding to the outer periphery of the drainage hole of the sink is extended at the upper end opening edge and fitted into the drainage hole. It can be installed. In addition, the concave recess 2 is composed of a side wall surface 4 and a bottom surface 5, both of which have a mesh structure and store them so as not to flow out due to garbage such as food residues, and the contained water can be drained. It is said.

  Next, this mesh structure will be described. First, with respect to the side peripheral wall surface 4, a large number of annular protrusions 4 a, 4 a... Are provided on the outer surface in the circumferential direction, that is, in the annular lateral direction at a predetermined interval. .. Are provided at predetermined intervals. Each of the protrusions 4a and 4b has a semicircular or semi-oval cross-sectional shape as shown in each figure, and one surface is a flat surface and the other surface is a curved surface. . And, by providing the annular ridge 4a and the linear ridge 4b so as to cross on the inside and outside (front and back) in this way, a large number of rectangular through holes 4c, 4c,... Are formed between the ridges, As a whole, it has a mesh structure. Therefore, this mesh structure is a mesh having a large number of through holes as a whole. However, if attention is paid only to the front surface or the back surface, the mesh structure is composed of linear protrusions.

  In the present embodiment, considering the extraction from the injection mold, the outer side is a lateral annular ridge, and the inner side is a vertical linear ridge. That is, in particular, the inner side is preferably a vertical ridge in order to ensure the direction of removing the mold.

  Moreover, in FIG.1 and FIG.2, since the space | interval of each inner and outer protrusion 4a, 4b is made into the same space | interval, although the square through-hole 4c is formed, it does not necessarily need to be made into the same space | interval, but as a different space | interval Alternatively, a vertical rectangular or horizontal rectangular through hole may be formed. However, in this case, it is preferable to narrow the interval between the inner linear protrusions 4b. That is, if the interval between the inner vertical linear ridges 4b is set such that no dust can flow out, even if the interval between the outer lateral annular ridges 4a becomes somewhat rough, the outflow of dust is surely achieved. This is because it can be prevented. And the effect which can save a raw material can be anticipated by selecting suitably the space | interval and number of protrusions.

  Next, with respect to the bottom surface 5, a large number of protrusions 5 a, 5 a... Are provided on the outer surface parallel to the diameter at predetermined intervals, and the inner surface is crossed with the protrusion 5 a. A plurality of ridges 5b, 5b,... Are provided at predetermined intervals. About the cross-sectional shape etc. of this protrusion, it is the same as that of the case of the said side peripheral wall surface 4. FIG. As a result, a large number of through-holes 5c, 5c,...

  In this embodiment, since the crossing angle of the protrusions 5a and 5b is a right angle (90 degrees), the shape of the through hole 5c is a square, but it is not necessary to limit to this, and the crossing angle is An angle between about 45 degrees and 90 degrees can be arbitrarily selected. When the crossing angle is other than 90 degrees, the shape of the through hole 5c is a rhombus. Further, as in the case of the side peripheral wall surface 4, the interval between the inner and outer protrusions 5a and 5b does not have to be the same interval, and may be different, but for the same reason as described above, It is preferable to narrow the interval between the protrusions 5b so that the dust does not flow out.

  Reference numeral 6 denotes a handle provided so as to protrude inward from the upper edge opening of the car body 1 and is used when the garbage receiving car is taken out from the drain hole. The handle 6 may be provided as necessary.

  As described above, the sink garbage receiving basket having the above-described configuration is integrally formed using a soft synthetic resin. As the soft synthetic resin material, it is preferable to employ a thermosetting resin-based elastomer, a thermoplastic elastomer, or the like, but the material is not necessarily limited to this, and is formed of a material having properties of a rubber-like elastic body. Further, injection molding is generally employed as the molding means.

  In addition, if an appropriate antibacterial material is kneaded and molded in advance in the soft synthetic resin, a garbage receiving basket excellent in antibacterial property can be provided.

  Next, a usage mode of the sink garbage receptacle according to the present invention will be described. Basically, the sink garbage basket for the sink is used by being fitted in the drain hole of the sink in the same manner as this conventional basket. And when washing this garbage receptacle, the features of the product of the present invention are exhibited. That is, at the time of cleaning, the outer side peripheral wall surface is brushed in the circumferential direction as usual. Since the protrusions are provided in a straight line in the circumferential direction, dirt can be easily removed. Similarly, since there is only a straight protrusion on the outer bottom surface, dirt can be easily removed by brushing in the diameter direction. At this time, if the linear interval on the outer surface is wide, cleaning is easier.

  Next, since the whole is made of soft synthetic resin so that it can be turned upside down, it can be easily turned over, so it can be turned upside down and turned upside down. Brushes diametrically. Thereby, dirt can also be easily removed from the inner surface. Further, in this case, the inner bottom corner, which has been difficult to clean with a conventional metal basket, protrudes and is exposed by turning over, so that the portion can be easily cleaned. Therefore, it becomes possible to maintain the whole in a clean state both on the outside and on the inside.
