The following describes actual施例embodying the present invention.

[Example 1]
As shown in FIG. 1, the counter 70a of the kitchen 70 is provided with a sink 80 and a gas range 90. A region surrounded by the sink 80, the counter 70a, and the side plate 70c on the side of the sink 80 is a dead space 10. It has become. Here, the sink 80 is prepared in a plurality of sizes, and is set so that the consumer can select as desired. Further, since the storage cabinet 70b under the counter 70a is set to be selectable, the size of the dead space 10 varies depending on the size of the sink 80 and the storage cabinet 70b.

  2 is a partially enlarged perspective view of the dead space 10 in front of the kitchen, and FIG. 3 is a partial cross-sectional view of the dead space 10. In the present embodiment, an electrical outlet 11 is provided in the dead space 10. That is, in the electrical outlet 11, a substantially rectangular decorative plate 12 made of the same material as that of the front surface of the storage cabinet 70b is disposed at a portion located on the front side of the dead space 10. The upper end side of the decorative plate 12 is connected to a storage cabinet 70b (kitchen 70 main body) via a hinge 13 as a movable mechanism, and the lower end side can be turned and retracted with the hinge 13 as a fulcrum. The electrical outlet 11 has a plug insertion port 11a at the lower end of the main body. The electrical outlet 11 is exposed to the front side of the kitchen 70 at the rotating drawer position, and is stored in the dead space 10 at the rotating storage position.

  An urging mechanism 13a for rotating and pulling out, which will be described later, is provided on the upper end side of the decorative plate 12, and a stopper mechanism 14 is provided on the side surface of the electrical outlet 11. The electrical outlet 11 is always pulled out by the urging mechanism 13a. At the same time as being biased in the direction, the stopper mechanism 14 restricts the rotation at a specific position. Further, a known push latch mechanism 15 as a lock mechanism is also provided at a corresponding position on the lower end side of the decorative plate 12 and the main body side of the kitchen 70, and when the electric outlet 11 is locked in a non-rotatable position. At the same time, the lock is released by pressing the front surface of the decorative plate 12 at the lower end side, and the decorative plate 12 is rotated to a position regulated by the stopper mechanism 14 by the urging mechanism 13a.

  The specific position regulated by the stopper mechanism 14 is a position where the exposure angle of the plug insertion port 11a of the electrical outlet 11 is, for example, −90 ° (vertical) in the present embodiment. The possibility that the flying water is directly applied to the plug insertion port 11a can be reduced. The urging mechanism 13a is a coil spring (not shown) built in the hinge 13 in this embodiment, and the hinge 13 itself urges the electrical outlet 11 in the direction of rotating and pulling out by the action of the coil spring.

  In this embodiment, the stopper mechanism 14 is provided on the side surface of the electrical outlet, and moves integrally with the electrical outlet 11. And a guide roller 14b that slidably contacts and guides the inside of the elongated hole of the guide rail 14a, and a stopper member 14c that regulates a sliding contact guide moving range within the elongated hole of the guide roller 14b. The stopper member 14c is provided on the guide roller 14b so that the inside of the elongated hole can be adjusted by, for example, a screw-type clamp. The rotation position of 11 is regulated so as to be adjustable. Therefore, for example, when it is desired to suppress the protruding position of the electrical outlet 11 toward the front of the kitchen as much as possible, or when it is desired to suppress the adhesion of the flying water to the plug insertion port 11a due to the water operation at the sink 80 as much as possible, The stopper member 14c is fixed at a restricting position where the rotational position becomes as small as possible within the range in which the plug of the electrical product can be inserted into the plug insertion port 11a. On the contrary, if priority is given to the workability of inserting the plug of the electric product, the stopper member 14c is fixed at a restricting position where the rotational position of the electric outlet 11 becomes large.

  When using the electrical outlet 11 described above, by pushing lightly the lower end of the front decorative plate 12 of the electrical outlet 11, the lock by the push latch mechanism 15 is released, and at the same time the pulling direction by the biasing mechanism 13 a. It is rotated to the restriction position. Thereby, the plug insertion port 11a of the electric outlet 11 is exposed, and the electric product can be used easily.

  On the other hand, when the electric outlet 11 is not required without using the electric product, the lower end side of the front decorative plate 12 of the electric outlet 11 is pushed against the urging mechanism 13a and rotated in the storing direction. Then, the push latch mechanism 15 is locked at the storage position, and the storage of the electrical outlet 11 is completed.

  According to the kitchen 70 described above, since the electrical outlet 11 is provided in the dead space 10 generated on the side of the sink 80 that has not been used conventionally, the storage space associated with the installation of the electrical outlet 11 is not sacrificed. In addition, it becomes possible to easily use electrical appliances around the kitchen 70. In addition, since the outlet position of the electrical outlet 11 can be freely adjusted, when it is desired to suppress the water flow of the sink 80, when it is desired to suppress the protrusion on the front side of the kitchen 70, or when priority is given to the plug insertion workability of the electrical product, etc. The drawer position can be appropriately set according to the situation. Further, when the electrical outlet 11 is not used, it can be easily stored in the dead space 10, so that it does not interfere with the work in the kitchen 70. In addition, this invention is not limited to the structure of a present Example, It can change suitably about the structure listed below.

  The structure for rotatably supporting the electrical outlet is not limited to the hinge, and any other structure that can perform the same rotation operation is applicable. For example, the structure etc. which hold | grip a shaft rotatably with an arm are mentioned.

  In this embodiment, the hinge that rotatably supports the electric outlet is provided between the decorative plate provided on the front surface of the electric outlet and the storage cabinet. However, the present invention is not limited to this. You may provide between the other members which can be supported movably. For example, not a decorative board but a structure provided between an electrical outlet main body and a storage cabinet is mentioned.

  The decorative board provided on the front side of the electrical outlet body may be omitted. In this case, the electrical outlet body may be exposed to the front side of the kitchen, and the hinge, push latch mechanism, stopper mechanism, etc. may be provided directly on the outlet body instead of the decorative plate. Moreover, you may give the coating unified with the storage cabinet to the front side of an electrical outlet main body.

  In this embodiment, the guide rail as the stopper mechanism is provided with an arc length of approximately 90 °, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the guide rail may be provided with an arc length of 90 ° or more or 90 ° or less. .

  In the present embodiment, the guide rail as a stopper mechanism is provided on the side surface of the electrical outlet body, but is not limited to this, and may be provided at other locations such as the back and bottom surfaces of the electrical outlet body or a decorative plate. good.

  The dead space that is provided on the side of the sink where the electrical outlet is provided may occur on one side of the sink, or on both the left and right sides.

In this embodiment, the rotation angle of the electrical outlet is such that the exposure angle of the plug insertion opening is −90 °, but is not limited thereto, and the exposure angle of the plug insertion opening is another angle. You may make it rotate like this. In this case, in the range of -90 °, the possibility of splashing water due to the water work at the sink can be reduced, but if the angle is too small, the workability of plug insertion becomes poor. On the other hand, in the range from −90 °, on the contrary, the workability of plug insertion is improved, but there is a greater possibility of water splashing due to water work at the sink. Therefore, the rotation angle may be adjusted as appropriate according to the situation .

The biasing mechanism is not limited to this embodiment as long as the electrical outlet can be biased in the pull-out direction, and any other structure can be applied. For example, a rubber-like elastic member, and a structure such as you or using a gas damper.

  The urging mechanism may be omitted and the electrical outlet may be pulled out manually.

  The lock mechanism in the storage position of the electrical outlet is not limited to the push latch mechanism of the present embodiment, and other lock mechanisms may be adopted. For example, the structure etc. which are made to latch with a hook are mentioned.

  The stopper mechanism of the electrical outlet is not limited to the structure using the guide rail of this embodiment, and other structures may be adopted. For example, the structure etc. which provide an abutting member in the rotation part of a hinge, and restrict | limit rotation are mentioned.

  In this embodiment, the guide rail and the guide roller constituting the stopper mechanism are respectively provided in the electric outlet main body and the kitchen cabinet, but conversely, the guide rail is on the kitchen cabinet side and the guide roller is on the electric outlet main body. It may be provided on each side. In this case, however, the guide rails should be laid out so that they do not protrude to the front of the kitchen.

  In this embodiment, the stopper member is provided on the guide rail as a stopper mechanism. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the stopper member may be eliminated and the end of the elongated hole of the guide rail may be brought into contact with the guide roller. . However, in this case, the rotation position of the electrical outlet cannot be adjusted. In addition, various structures can be applied, such as the stopper member being configured by providing an adjustment bolt or the like at the end of the guide rail.

  In this embodiment, the electrical outlet is not provided with a lock mechanism at the drawer position, and is merely biased by the biasing mechanism to the restriction position by the stopper mechanism, but is not limited to this, and the electrical outlet drawer position In this case, a lock mechanism for releasably locking may be provided instead of the stopper mechanism. According to this configuration, the electrical outlet can be reliably fixed at the drawing position. Specific examples of the structure include a push latch mechanism similar to the storage position, a hook locking mechanism, and the like.

The lock position by the lock mechanism is not limited to the two positions of the storage position and the exposure position, and can be set to an arbitrary position located between them. For example, if the plug insertion port into an electric outlet is provided with a plurality in the projecting and retracting direction, in accordance with the number of the plug insertion port to be used, include structural example as setting a plurality of locking positions for each plug insertion opening It is done.

The number of electrical outlets installed in the dead space generated on the side of the sink is not particularly limited, and one or more than two may be provided as long as installation is possible in space. The layout of multiple outlets is also free. Further, when providing a plurality of electrical outlets, the housing mechanism, electricity to the gas may be provided independently individually for each outlet may be provided in one of the storage mechanism together a plurality of electrical outlets. Furthermore, electricity when the gas outlets every provision of the individual storage mechanism, each receiving mechanism is not always all need to be the same, may be adopted different storage mechanisms in each.

The number of plug insertion openings provided in one electrical outlet is not particularly limited, and one or a plurality of two or more may be provided as long as installation is possible in space .

[Reference Example 1]
Wherein Although the first embodiment shows an example in which the electrical outlet 11 in a dead space 10 which caused the sink 80 side that has not been used traditional, 4, instead of the electrical outlet 11 in the dead space 10 For example, Reference Example 1 in which a drawer 16 is provided and other kitchen utensils 17 are stored is shown .

The kitchen utensil 17 stored in the drawer is, for example, a seasoning, tableware, or a cooking utensil. If such kitchen utensils are stored in a drawer provided in the dead space 10, for example, the kitchen utensils can be easily used or cleaned up at hand while performing kitchen work with the sink 80. Moreover, since the dead space 10 is used, the conventional storage space is not sacrificed at all. In addition, this reference example can be suitably changed about the structure listed below.

  The member stored in the drawer is not limited to the kitchen utensils listed above, and can store other various utensils, members, and the like. For example, a rubber band, a bottle opener, a can opener, a plastic bag, etc. are mentioned. Furthermore, you may make it accommodate a foodstuff. In this case, the storage space may be a small refrigerator or a freezer.

  The structure for storing the kitchen utensils is not limited to the drawer, and other storage structures may be adopted. For example, the storage structure etc. which have rotation operation | movement like above-mentioned Example 1 are mentioned. In this rotating storage structure, for example, a structure in which a rotation fulcrum is provided at the lower end and the storage portion opens on the upper end side can be specifically considered. Or you may just provide a door in the front side of a kitchen.

  The structure for storing the kitchenware is not limited to one, and a plurality of structures may be provided. In this case, the installation positions may be provided in both dead spaces on both sides of the sink, or a plurality of installation positions may be provided only in one dead space.

  The electric outlet according to the first embodiment may be provided. The arrangement in the case of juxtaposition is, for example, an example in which a storage structure for kitchenware is arranged in one of the dead spaces on both sides of the sink, and a storage structure for an electrical outlet is arranged on the other. Or you may make it provide both together in only one dead space.

[Reference Example 2]
Wherein Although the first embodiment shows an example in which the electrical outlet 11 in the region of the dead space 10 adjacent to the sink 80 side that has not been used traditional, 5, electrical outlet to the dead space 10 11 A reference example 2 in which , for example, a drawer 18 is provided instead of the trash box 18a is shown .

In the trash box 18a, for example, a trash input port 18b is opened in a counter 70a located above the dead space 10 so that trash can be input from above the counter 70a. Also, the trash in the trash can 18a is discharged by opening the drawer 18 storage.
As described above, by placing and providing a trash box in the dead space 10 generated on the side of the sink 80, for example, when working at the sink 80, garbage or the like is easily dumped into the trash box 18a through the trash input port 18b. Will be able to. Dust in the trash box 18a can be easily discharged by simply opening the drawer 18. Moreover, since the dead space 10 is used, the conventional storage space is not sacrificed at all. Further, since the trash can 18a is stored in the dead space 10, there is no need to provide a separate trash can on the sink 80 or around the kitchen 70 as in the prior art, so that the work is not obstructed and the aesthetics can be refreshed. . In addition, this reference example can be suitably changed about the structure listed below.

  The structure for storing the trash can is not limited to the drawer type, and other structures may be adopted. For example, a structure that allows the upper end side to be pivotally opened with the lower end of the front panel of the kitchen in the dead space as a fulcrum is exemplified.

In this reference example, the trash can input port is provided in the counter located above the dead space. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a part of the dead space on the front side of the kitchen is opened to serve as the input port. Anyway. Or you may make it throw in garbage by opening a storage part to an exposure position. For example, in the case where the storage structure is a drawer type, the drawer is pulled out to be opened, and garbage is thrown in. When the storage structure is a rotating type, the storage structure is rotated and opened, and dust is thrown in.

In this reference example, the trash can slot is provided in the counter located above the dead space, but a lid may be provided on the trash bin slot. By providing the lid, it is possible to prevent an object from being accidentally dropped into the trash box during kitchen work. Moreover, it is possible to suppress the odor in the trash box from leaking outside. In addition, it is possible to prevent pests from traveling inside and outside the trash can.

  As a specific structure of the lid, for example, a rotation shaft is provided on the center line of the opening, and the lid is rotated by pushing both side ends straddling the rotation shaft so that the lid can be opened and closed. Alternatively, by dividing the lid into the opening center line, urging so that the relative side of both halves of the lid can be pivoted open and closed downward, and pushing downward between the halves of the lid against the bias Open and close. Alternatively, a pedal connected to the lid by a link mechanism may be provided at the bottom of the kitchen, and the lid may be opened and closed by stepping on the pedal.

  The number of trash cans is not limited to one, and a plurality of trash cans may be provided. In that case, you may provide for every kind of garbage, such as garbage and combustible garbage.

  When a plurality of trash cans are provided, the installation positions may be provided in both dead spaces on both sides of the sink, or a plurality may be provided only in one dead space.

The electric outlet according to the first embodiment or the kitchenware storage structure according to the first embodiment may be juxtaposed. The arrangement in the case of juxtaposition may be arranged by freely distributing the dead spaces on both sides of the sink, or all of them may be provided collectively only in one of the dead spaces. However, from the viewpoint of hygiene, it is preferable that the trash can and the kitchenware storage structure are arranged apart from each other.

[Reference Example 3]
Wherein Although the first embodiment shows an example in which the electrical outlet 11 in a dead space 10 which caused the sink 80 side that has not been used traditional, 6, instead of the electrical outlet 11 in the dead space 10 For example, Reference Example 3 in which the water purifier 19 is housed and provided is shown .

  The water purifier 19 accommodated in the dead space 10 is connected to the water supply pipe 19a in the dead space 10 and supplied with water, and at the same time passes through the counter 70a located above the dead space 10 to the sink 80. A pipe 19b is provided, and water can be supplied to the sink 80 after the supplied water is purified. The purified water faucet pipe is provided with a faucet plug (not shown).

In the case of a general filter-type water purifier, it is necessary to periodically replace the filter as a consumable part. However, an opening / closing door 20 is provided on the front side of the kitchen 70 in the dead space 10, and the opening / closing door 20. By opening the water filter, it is easy to remove and replace the water purification filter provided in the main body of the water purifier 19 housed in the dead space 10.
As described above, by storing the water purifier 19 in the dead space 10 adjacent to the side of the sink 80, the main body of the water purifier 19 is not exposed around the kitchen sink 80 as in the prior art, which hinders work. In addition to becoming aesthetically pleasing. Since the opening / closing door 20 is provided, the workability of filter replacement is not impaired. Moreover, since the dead space 10 is used, the conventional storage space is not sacrificed at all. In addition, this reference example can be suitably changed about the structure listed below.

  The opening structure for maintaining the water purifier is not limited to the open / close door provided on the front side of the kitchen in the dead space, and may be another structure. For example, an opening / closing door may be provided at a counter portion located above the dead space. Further, the opening / closing door itself may be omitted and left open. In this case, the aesthetic advantages are diminished, but other effects are obtained as well.

  Furthermore, a movable mechanism such as the above-described rotation mechanism or pull-out mechanism may be adopted in the first embodiment or the like so as to be opened. Furthermore, when these mechanisms are employed, the water purifier main body may move and be exposed at the same time as the opening as well as simply opening.

  As a specific structure, a structure in which a water purifier main body is installed instead of the electric outlet provided in the first embodiment can be mentioned. At this time, the pipe connected to the water purifier main body can be dealt with by adopting, for example, a bellows type or a flexible pipe made of rubber in a portion where movement is necessary. Thus, if a structure in which the water purifier main body moves and is exposed is adopted, the detachment workability can be greatly improved during the filter replacement work.

  If the water purifier has an indicator such as the filter replacement time, a window may be provided so that the portion can be visually recognized.

  Depending on the type of water purifier, the filter part and the main body part may be separated, but in such a case, both may be stored in the dead space, or only one of them is stored, The other may be installed outside.

  The consumable parts that are exchanged by the water purifier are not limited to filters, and may be consumable parts such as packing.

The layout of piping connected to the water purifier can be changed. For example, the purified water faucet pipe arranged on the sink side from the water purifier may be directly penetrated into the sink without penetrating the counter. Or you may make it connect directly to normal faucet piping.

  The water purifier is not limited to a filter type, and may be applied to a type of water purifier that does not have a filter or does not require filter replacement. Specific examples include an ultraviolet sterilizer, an ozone sterilizer, a zeolite sterilizer, and a silver sterilizer. In this case, the opening structure for the filter replacement work as described above is not necessarily required.

  A plurality of water purifiers may be provided. In that case, the installation positions may be provided in both dead spaces on both sides of the sink, or a plurality of installation positions may be provided only in one dead space. In recent years, diversification of water work at the sink has required a plurality of water supply ports to the sink, but such cases can be easily handled.

  You may apply the apparatus which changes or improves water quality other than a water purifier similarly to a water purifier. Specifically, there is a so-called magnetic water treatment device that activates the water flow by applying magnetism.

  A water treatment device other than the above water purifier may be juxtaposed with the water purifier and housed in the dead space.

The electric outlet of the first embodiment, the kitchenware storage structure of the first reference example , or the trash box of the second reference example may be provided. The arrangement in the case of juxtaposition may be arranged by freely distributing the dead spaces on both sides of the sink, or all of them may be provided collectively only in one of the dead spaces.
