Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain improvement in housing capacity and performance of a system kitchen while retaining regularity in appearance and workability on a work top of a sink stand. CONSTITUTION:A sterilizing cabinet 1 of elevation type which is equipped with a sterilizing lamp and a cooking tool housing part is connected and fixed to a lower part of a cutout 18 of a work top 17 on a sink stand 11 in the vicinity of a sink part. The elevatable sterilizing cabinet 1 has a door of such a shape and a size as can pass through the cutout 18. Thus, cleaned wares can be housed in the sterilizing cabinet 1 so quickly that water drops after cleaning can be prevented from being scattered, and in addition, sterilization by a sterilizing lamp and drying by heat generation can be done at the same time. When it is not used, it can be housed in a lower part below the work top 17 surface of the sink stand 11, whereby appearance of a system kitchen can be improved. Further, when it is used, the strilizing cabinet 1 is made to go up only by operation of a switch. Thus, the housing capacity and performance as a system kitchen can be much improved, and further, workability on the work top of the sink stand can be retained.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 to 3, reference numeral 1 is a sterilizing cabinet for cooking utensils that moves up and down, and a sterilizing lamp 2 is provided in the sterilizing cabinet 1 for cooking utensils.
And a cooking utensil storage portion 7 and a water tray 8 are provided, and on the sink 11 near the sink portion 10 of the kitchen 9,
It is located outside the movable range of the spout 13 of the faucet 12 or the mixed faucet 12 and adjoins the wall surface as a wall side further than the depth surface of the sink portion 10 and has an opening / closing door 14 on the front surface of the cooking appliance sterilizer 1. . Further, the cookware sterilization cabinet 1 is connected to the elevating part 15-1 of the elevating device 15, and the fixing part 15-2 of the elevating device 15 is connected and fixed to the sink cabinet 16 near the sink part 10. A notch portion 18 is provided on a part of the wall surface side of the worktop 17 on the sink cabinet 16, and the notch portion 18 is shaped and dimensioned so that the cookware sterilizer 1 can pass through. Further, the notch 18 is provided on the head 19 of the cooking appliance sterilizer 1.
Worktops 17 matching the shape of are connected and fixed.

In the above structure, the sink 1 of the kitchen 9
Since it is installed in the vicinity of the sink portion 10 on the first part, it is possible to store various kinds of equipment after cooking promptly after washing and with the drop of water droplets suppressed as much as possible. In addition, since the spout 13 of the water faucet 12 or the mixed water faucet 12 is outside the movable range and further deeper than the depth of the sink portion 10, the kitchenware sterilizer 1 is installed in contact with the wall surface, so that the sink is provided. There is no hindrance in the cooking work on the eleventh, and it is possible to improve the storability and functionality of the system kitchen. In addition, it is possible to store space in the lower part of the sink 11 during cooking work to save space, and to improve the storage capacity and functionality as a system kitchen that can be quickly opened to store cleaning utensils when cleaning after cooking. Also, the workability on the sink worktop can be maintained. Further, when the cookware sterilizer 1 is stowed down at the bottom of the sink 11,
The worktop of the sink can be installed without any unnatural appearance.

Further, a second embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS.
Will be explained. 3 to 4 is different from the above embodiment in that the moving state of the lifting device 15 and the input operation of the sterilization lamp are interlocked with each other, that is, when the lifting part 15 is raised, the sterilization lamp 2 input is turned off and the lifting part is lowered. Sterilization lamp 2 input is 0N
The position detection unit 20 (for example, a micro switch or the like) is provided so that the sterilization lamp is not input when the cooking utensil sterilization cabinet is elevated on the worktop 17. It is 0FF and the door 14 is mistaken.
Even if the door is opened, no harmful light is received on the eyes, and the safety is high.

[0014]

As is apparent from the above description of the embodiments, the present invention has the following effects.

(1) A sterilizing lamp, a storage for cooking utensils, and a water tray are provided in the refrigerator, and a notch is provided in at least a part of the sink which is in contact with the wall surface on the sink near the sink of the kitchen, and The cutout has a shape and dimensions that allow it to pass through, and is connected to the elevating part of the elevating device and the fixing part of the elevating device is connected and fixed to the sink cabinet. Since a worktop with a shape that matches the cutout is connected and fixed and has an opening and closing door on the front, it is an elevator sterilization cabinet, so after cleaning various equipment after cooking work,
It can be quickly stored in the sterilization cabinet with less water droplets scattered, and can be sterilized by a sterilization lamp and dried by heat generation, and at the same time, it can be stored below the worktop surface of the sink when it is not needed, improving the appearance of the system kitchen In addition, since it can be freely moved in and out with a single switch when necessary, it is of course possible to improve the storability and functionality as a system kitchen, and to maintain workability on the sink worktop. it can.
