Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a garbage cage for a sink for reducing cleaning labor and hardly destroying a commodity value while suppressing slime and odors.SOLUTION: A garbage cage 3 is mounted in a drain port of a kitchen sink. Copper plating is applied only to a portion of an outside face 31a of a bottom part 31 and side parts 32 of a cage body 3a of the garbage cage 3 so that the copper-plating portions suppress the occurrence of slime and odors to reduce cleaning labor. The garbage cage 3 is rotatably linked to a rotation device for diffusing copper ions from the copper-plating portions to the outside with a rotation to prevent the occurrence of odors while suppressing the slime on the whole garbage cage and the drain port of the sink. Centrifugal force with the rotation brings about good draining capability.

Description

  The present invention relates to a garbage can attached to a drain of a kitchen sink.

  Conventionally, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, there is one provided with a sterilization / antibacterial metal coating (silver, copper, zinc) on at least a part of the surface side of a garbage basket (trash receptacle).

Utility Model Registration No. 3133905

In the garbage basket (trash receptacle) disclosed in Patent Document 1, a metal film is formed on the surface side, and it is not possible to sufficiently suppress slime on the back side of the bottom of the garbage basket where water easily collects. It was a thing. In addition, there is a problem that the appearance of the metal film on the surface side deteriorates due to use over time and the commercial value is impaired.
In addition, the occurrence of slime in the garbage can cause fine dust to adhere, increasing the time for cleaning, and the slime was a source of odor. In order to prevent such slime, copper is known to be effective. However, when garbage is made from copper, the cost becomes high, and copper reacts with sulfur components over time. There was a problem that it turned black into spots, the appearance deteriorated and the commercial value was impaired.

The object of the present invention is to provide a garbage bin for a sink that reduces the labor of cleaning, suppresses slime and odor, and does not impair the commercial value. In order to achieve at least a part of this object, the following measures are taken. It was.
The gutter for a sink according to the present invention is a gutter that is attached to a drain outlet of a kitchen sink, and the gist thereof is that copper plating is applied only to the outer surface of the gutter.

  In the garbage basket for a sink according to the present invention, only the outer surface is plated with copper. Therefore, the copper plating can suppress the occurrence of odor while suppressing the slime on the back side of the garbage basket where water easily collects. Even if the copper-plated part turns black after use over time, this blackened part is a part that cannot be seen by the user on the outer side of the garbage bowl, that is, the back side. For this reason, the commercial value of garbage cans is unlikely to be impaired.

Further, in the garbage basket for a sink according to the present invention, only a part of the outer surface of the garbage basket may be plated with copper.
In this way, since the copper-plated part is only a part of the outer surface, the part that turns black is reduced, and the user does not look directly at the part that turns black. It becomes hard to be damaged. In addition, the copper plating part suppresses the generation of slime and odor, and can reduce the trouble of cleaning.

Further, in a garbage jar in which only a part of the outer surface of the trash jar is copper-plated, the trash jar can be connected to a rotating device in a rotatable manner.
In this way, when the garbage basket is rotated through the rotating device, the copper ions of the copper plating portion applied only to a part are diffused outward by the rotation, and the whole garbage basket and the drain outlet of the sink are diffused. In addition, the action of copper ions can be expanded, and the generation of odor can be prevented while suppressing the waste of the whole garbage can and the drain of the sink. In addition, good drainage capacity can be obtained by centrifugal force due to rotation.

It is the longitudinal cross-section block diagram which provided the drain trap provided with the garbage basket in the drain outlet of the sink. It is an external appearance perspective view of a drain trap. It is a longitudinal cross-sectional block diagram of a garbage basket. It is an enlarged block diagram of the water permeable hole currently formed in the garbage basket. It is an expanded block diagram of the conventional water-permeable hole. It is a longitudinal cross-sectional block diagram of the garbage basket which gave copper plating only to a part of outer surface.

Next, the form for implementing this invention is demonstrated using an Example.
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal cross-sectional configuration diagram of a drain trap equipped with a garbage basket, and FIG. 2 is an external perspective view of the drain trap.
A drain bowl 2 is attached to the drain port 1 a of the kitchen sink 1, and a trash can 3 is housed in the drain bowl 2. A drain trap 5 is provided in a drooping manner on the bottom side of the drain bowl 2, and an inner cylinder 6 is coaxially provided in the drain trap 5 to form a sealed water in the drain trap 5. A drain pipe 5 a is provided above the sealed water so as to be inclined downward from the drain trap 5.

A rotating device 8 is provided on the lower end side of the drain trap 5.
In the rotating device 8, a water wheel 12 is provided in a case 9, and a water wheel side magnet 13 is fixed to the water wheel 12. A heel side magnet 14 is disposed above the water wheel side magnet 13, and this heel side magnet 14 is fixed to the lower end of a shaft 7 that is suspended from the bottom surface of the garbage jar 3 in the inner cylinder 6. .
The case 9 is provided with a connecting pipe 10 connected to the water stop cock and a connecting pipe 11 connected to the water tap.

  In such a configuration, when water flows into the case 9 through the connecting pipe 10 from the stop cock side and flows out to the faucet connecting pipe 11 side, the water wheel 12 in the case 9 rotates due to the water flow. By rotating the water wheel side magnet 13 and rotating the waterside magnet 14, the waste waterside 3 is rotated through the shaft 7 in the drain bowl 2 at a rotational speed of about 400 rpm, for example. The water in the garbage basket 3 is dehydrated by the centrifugal force, and a good drainage capacity by the centrifugal force is ensured.

  The garbage basket 3 has a structure as shown in the longitudinal sectional view of FIG. 3, and is configured by attaching a resin flange 3b to the outer periphery of the upper surface of the basket body 3a. The basket body 3a is made of, for example, stainless steel punching It is made of metal, and is formed in a bowl shape in which a side portion 32 is raised from a substantially horizontal bottom portion 31 in a cylindrical shape and an upper surface is opened.

A large number of water-permeable holes 31c as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 4 are formed through the bottom portion 31 and the side portion 32 of the main body 3a. The hole diameter of the water permeable holes 31c is, for example, 0.8 mm, and the hole interval between the water permeable holes 31c and the water permeable holes 31c is set to be sparse.
That is, FIG. 5 shows a conventional water permeable hole. In the conventional water permeable hole shown in FIG. 5, the hole diameter of the water permeable hole 31c is 1.2 mm, and the distance between the holes is set densely.

The outer surface 31a of the basket body 3a of the garbage basket 3, that is, the bottom surface 31 and the back surface 31a of the side portion 32 are plated with copper, and the inner surface 31b that forms the inner periphery on the front side is plated with copper. Is not given.
Thus, only the outer surface 31a of the heel body 3a is plated with copper, and the occurrence of slimming of the heel body 3a can be suppressed by the copper plating. In particular, moisture and dust accumulate on the bottom 31 of the bag main body 3a. The slime due to the moisture and dust can be satisfactorily suppressed by copper plating.
Since the slime can be suppressed, the generation of odor can be reduced, and the trouble of cleaning the garbage basket 3 can be reduced.

  In addition, the copper-plated portion reacts with the sulfur component and becomes blackened due to the use over time, but this blackened portion is the outer surface 31a of the bag body 3a, so that the user can When the garbage basket 3 is viewed, the blackening of the outer side surface 31a is invisible, and the appearance of the copper plating portion is less likely to deteriorate, and the commercial value of the garbage basket 3 is hardly impaired. It will be a thing.

  In this example, the water-permeable hole 31c has a small hole diameter as shown in FIG. 4, a narrow hole interval, and a small number of holes. Therefore, the area where dust and drainage are in contact with the copper-plated portion is large. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of slime and odor satisfactorily.

  Furthermore, in the garbage basket 3 shown in FIG. 6, the copper plating portion P is formed only on a part of the outer surface 31a near the center of the bottom 31 of the basket body 3a, and the narrow area near the center of the bottom 31 is small. A copper plating is applied to the surface to form at a low cost.

  Thus, even if the area of the copper plating portion P is small, as described above, by rotating the dust basket 3 through the rotating device 8 at a high speed, the copper ions in the copper plating portion P spread outward due to the rotation. Copper ions diffuse throughout the main body 3a and further spread over the entire inner periphery of the drainage bowl 2, so that it is possible to satisfactorily suppress the occurrence of slime on the inner periphery of the garbage bowl 3 and the drainage bowl 2. .

Further, a good drainage capacity is secured by the centrifugal force due to the rotation, and the drainage flows through the drainage hole 31c of the garbage basket 3 into the lower drainage trap 5 and is drained from the drainage pipe 5a.
Thus, by rotating the garbage basket 3 through the rotating device 8, it is possible to ensure a good drainage capacity while improving the antibacterial effect.
