Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a multipurpose laboratory table which is capable of conducting various chemistries and other experiments and cleaning equipment used in the experiments.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Laboratory benches are commonly used for conducting various chemical experiments and biological experiments in schools, companies, and laboratories of factories. This laboratory table is generally equipped with a sink at the end or the center of the tabletop and is used for cleaning the experimental tools and equipment such as beakers used on the table, and for cleaning the objects under test. .

[0003]

In the conventional laboratory table, the sink and the curran arranged beside the table are of a fixed type.
Therefore, there is an advantage that various devices can be washed near the experimental place, but depending on the contents of the experiment, it may not always be necessary to wash or add water during the experiment. Rather, it is sometimes necessary to use a large area on the bench surface.
However, when the sink is a fixed type as in the past, it is not possible to use this sink as a stand.

It is an object of the present invention to make the sink adjacent to the top plate a tilt type, and to cover the upper part of the sink with a cover plate so that the upper part of the sink can be used as a laboratory table when the sink is not used.

[0005]

The present invention has been made to achieve the above object, and in a laboratory table having a sink between adjacent top plates, the sink is flexible with respect to the laboratory table frame. A drainage pipe is connected and is provided in a swinging manner, and when the sink is rocked and stored, the upper part of this sink is covered and a cover plate that is flush with the top plate is swingably provided together with the sink. The gist of the invention is that it is provided so as to stand upright and to be stored up and down so that it is stored under the cover plate when the sink is stored.

[0006]

[Operation] The cross section of the sink installed at the end of the tabletop of the laboratory table
It is housed inside a letter-shaped cover plate, and the sink and cover plate are integrated and swingable so that it can be tilted with respect to the main frame of the laboratory table. Then, the L-shaped cover plate provided integrally with the sink is also swung together, and the upper side of the sink is covered with this cover plate and becomes flush with the adjacent top plate. Therefore, the upper part of the sink can also be used as part of the experimental bench. In addition, since the currant is also tilted, it can be stored at the same time when the sink is stored.

[0007]

The present invention will be described below with reference to the illustrated embodiments. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a laboratory table, which is integrally provided with a top plate 4 having a material and a size suitable for the laboratory table on a main body frame 3 including legs 2, so that the top panel 4 has a predetermined height. A sink 5 is disposed between the two adjacent top plates 4 and 4 so as to be swingable with respect to the main body frame 3.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the sink 5 is attached to a main body frame 3 in a sink mounting base 6 having a U-shaped cross section, and the upper end edge of the sink is fixed to the sink mounting base 6 and the sink mounting is performed. Both side plates 61, 61 of the table are pivotally supported on the main body frame 3 via the support shaft 7. The sink 5 is rocked and tilted together with the mounting base 6 around the support shaft 7 as a turning center. Therefore, the sink mount 6 supports the load applied to the sink.

Further, the sink mounting base 6 is integrally provided with a cover plate 8 having an L-shaped cross section. The cover plate 8 faces the one side surface of the sink 5 and the side plate 82 is the bottom surface of the sink. Cover the cover plate 8 so as to be opposed to both side plates 61, 6 of the sink mount.
It is arranged between one. Then, the edge of the sink 5 is fixed to the edge of the top plate surface 81 of the cover plate 8 in the same manner as the side plate 61 of the sink mount, and as shown in FIG. 81 is the front vertical state of the laboratory table,
As shown in FIG. 1, when the sink is not used, the top plate surface 81 serves as the top surface, and is located close to the top plate end at the same height position as the adjacent top plate 4.

The calan 9 is a valve which is provided on the inner surface of the body frame 3 on the rear end side and is provided between the sink 5 and the top plate surface 81 of the cover plate so that one or more can be housed therein and is fixedly connected to a water pipe. An L-shaped or U-shaped faucet pipe 91 is provided on the body 90 so as to be tiltable as shown in FIG. 2, so that when the faucet pipe 91 is raised, water is supplied into the sink from above the sink. , When it is folded down, it is stored under the top plate surface of the cover plate.

Therefore, when using the laboratory table constructed as described above so that the sink can be washed, the sink 5 is tilted to be horizontal as shown in FIG. At this time, the top plate surface 81 of the cover plate 8 slightly projects to the front side and becomes vertical. Then, the faucet pipe 91 of the Karan is erected as shown.

When the sink 5 is not used, when the sink 5 together with the sink mount 6 is swung 90 degrees from the state of FIG. 3, the sink 5 stands up from the horizontal state and is formed as shown in FIG. Since the sink mounting base 6 is also integrally provided with the cover plate 8, the cover plate 8 is also swung together when the sink 5 is swung, so that the top surface 81 becomes horizontal and the height of the adjacent top plate 4 is equal. The position. This allows the upper part of the sink to be used as a stand. In this case, the faucet pipe 92 is also tilted in the horizontal direction.

Further, the top plate 4 may be provided with another sink outside the outer end side in addition to the sink arranged in the central portion, or a part thereof may be hollowed out to form a sink.

[0014]

According to the experimental table of the present invention, the flexible drain pipe is connected to the sink with respect to the main frame of the experimental table, and the sink is provided swingably, and the sink covers the upper portion of the sink when housed by swinging. Since a cover plate that is flush with the sink is provided so as to be swingable, and the currant is provided so as to stand upright above the sink when in use, and to be stored upside down so that it is stored below the cover plate when the sink is stored. When the sink is not used, the upper part of the sink can also be used as a test bench, which has the advantage of being versatile.
