For this purpose, an open space is provided directly below the sink, and trash boxes, beer cases, preserved vegetables, and the like are stored in the open space, and they are well-organized and tidy to improve the efficiency of cooking work.

In order to create an open space in the system kitchen, a sink cover box is required. This sink cover box is installed between cabinets and a sink cabinet to form an open space below the sink cover box. I was

[0004]

It is desirable that the assembly and construction of the system kitchen can be easily performed by one worker alone. However, when creating an open space in the system kitchen as described above, the sink cover box,
The sink cover box must be installed between the cabinet and the sink cabinet, and the installation of the sink cover box includes a process of attaching the sink cover box to the cabinet and the sink cabinet. It was difficult.

Further, in the case of the conventional system kitchen, there is a problem that the drain trap is exposed in the open space and the appearance is poor.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and a first object of the present invention is to provide a sink on which a worker can work alone to fix a sink cover box to both cabinets. To provide.

It is a second object of the present invention to provide a sink having a good appearance without a drain trap being exposed in an open space.

It is a third object of the present invention to provide a method of assembling a sink in which an operator can perform an operation of fixing a sink cover box to both cabinets alone.

[0009]

In order to achieve the first object, a sink according to the present invention comprises a sink cover box installed between one cabinet and the other cabinet. And a temporary placing means for temporarily placing the sink cover box between the two cabinets in a sink having an open space formed below the sink.

[0010] In order to achieve the second object, the sink according to the present invention is provided with a sink cover box installed between one cabinet and the other cabinet and opened below the sink cover box. In the sink where the space is formed, either one of the cabinets and the sink cover box are provided with a sink receiving portion for accommodating the sink, and the sink is provided at a position straddling the cabinet having the sink receiving portion and the sink cover box. The sink was housed in a sink receiver, and a drain trap connected to a drain at the bottom of the sink was inserted into a cabinet provided with the sink receiver.

In order to achieve the third object, the sink assembly method according to the present invention is characterized in that a sink cover box is installed between one cabinet and the other cabinet, and the sink cover box is mounted on the sink cover box. In a method of assembling a sink that forms an open space below, a mounting frame assembly is interposed between both cabinets,
After this mounting frame assembly is fixed to both cabinets, a sink cover box is inserted between both cabinets, the bottom surface of the sink cover box is supported by the mounting frame assembly, and the hook members provided on the sink cover box are attached to both the cabinets. The sink cover box was temporarily placed by hooking on the cabinet, and then the sink cover box was fixed to both cabinets.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for assembling a sink according to the present invention, wherein the sink cover box is provided between one cabinet and the other cabinet. In the method of assembling the sink to form an open space below, after previously fixing the mounting frame assembly to the sink cover box, this mounting frame assembly is located between both cabinets, and the sink cover box is temporarily placed, Thereafter, the sink cover boxes were fixed to both cabinets.

[0013]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the sink cover box can be supported by the temporary placing means, eliminating the need for manual support. For this reason, the worker can fix the sink cover box to both cabinets by one worker, and the sink can be assembled by one worker.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the drain trap can be accommodated in a cabinet provided with a sink receiving portion. For this reason, the drain trap is not exposed, and the appearance is improved.

In the invention according to claim 3, the mounting frame assembly is interposed between the cabinets, and the mounting frame assembly is fixed to the cabinets. Then, the sink cover box is inserted between the cabinets. Then, the bottom surface of the sink cover box is supported by the mounting frame assembly, and the hook members can be hooked on both cabinets to temporarily place the sink cover box. For this reason, the worker can fix the sink cover box to both cabinets by one worker, and the sink can be assembled by one worker.

Further, in the invention according to claim 4, in order to fix the sink cover box to the mounting frame assembly in advance, the mounting frame assembly is positioned between the two cabinets to temporarily place the sink cover box. can do. For this reason, the worker can fix the sink cover box to both cabinets by one worker, and the sink can be assembled by one worker.
