【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view showing a sink lid with a drainage function as a first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an end view taken along line AA. The drain lid with drainage function 1 is composed of a lid member 3 and a pipe member 5. FIG. 3 is a plan view of the lid member 3. The lid member 3 is composed of a metal plate 7, a rubber member 9 and a collar 11.

The metal plate 7 is made of stainless steel and has a disk shape. A hole 13 penetrating the front and back is provided at a position deviated from the center of the metal plate 7. A rubber member 9 is provided on the peripheral portion of the metal plate 7. The rubber member 9 has a ring shape, and its cross section is V-shaped as shown in FIG. The groove portion of the rubber member 9 is fitted into and fixed to the metal plate 7.

The hole 13 is provided with a collar portion 11. The collar 11 is made of stainless steel and has an annular shape. The lower end of the collar portion 11 is a caulking portion 11a. The caulking portion 11a has such a size that it can be just fitted into the hole 13. The collar portion 11 is fixed by bending the caulked portion so as to hold the edge portion of the hole 13. A peripheral groove 11b is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the collar portion 11, and a ring-shaped sealing material 11c is inserted therein. As a result, the watertightness between the collar portion 11 and the pipe member 5 is ensured.

The pipe member 5 is composed of a first pipe portion 15, a pipe coupling ring 17, a second pipe portion 19 and a pipe tip portion 21. The first pipe portion 15 is made of stainless steel and has a cylindrical shape, and is slidably inserted into the collar portion 11. By bending the lower end 15a outward, the lower end 15a is caught by the lower end of the collar portion 11 and cannot be pulled out upward.

A pipe coupling ring 17 is fitted to the tip portion 15 b of the first pipe portion 15. The pipe coupling ring 17 is made of stainless steel and has a ring shape. As shown in FIG. 2, the pipe coupling ring 17 has a large-diameter portion 17a and a small-diameter portion 17b having an inner diameter smaller than that of the large-diameter portion 17a because there is a step inside. The tip portion 15b of the first pipe portion 15 is fitted inside the large diameter portion 17a. A peripheral groove 17c is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the large diameter portion 17a, and a ring-shaped sealing material 17d is inserted therein. As a result, the watertightness between the first pipe portion 15 and the pipe coupling ring 17 is secured.

A second pipe portion 19 is slidably inserted into the small diameter portion 17b of the pipe coupling ring 17. The second pipe portion 19 is made of stainless steel and has a cylindrical shape. Since the lower end 19a of the second pipe portion 19 is bent outward, the second pipe portion 19 is caught on the lower end of the small diameter portion 17b of the pipe coupling ring 17 so as not to come out upward.

A seal member 23 is provided between the first pipe portion 15, the second pipe portion 19 and the pipe coupling ring 17 to ensure water tightness. The pipe tip 21 is fitted to the tip 19b of the second pipe portion 19. The pipe tip 21 is made of plastic and has an annular shape. As shown in FIG. 2, the pipe tip portion 21 has a large-diameter portion 21a and a small-diameter portion 21b having an inner diameter smaller than that of the large-diameter portion 21a because there is a step inside. The tip portion 19b of the second pipe portion 19 is fitted inside the large diameter portion 21a.

Due to this structure, the length of the pipe member 5 can be expanded and contracted. That is, the first pipe portion 15 and the second pipe portion 19 are slidably inserted into the collar portion 11 and the pipe coupling ring 17, respectively. By sliding the first pipe portion and the second pipe portion up and down, the length of the pipe member 5 can be extended or contracted. In addition, sealing members 11c, 17d, and 23 are provided in each coupling portion. Moreover, the outer peripheral radius of the first pipe portion 15 and the outer peripheral radius of the second pipe portion 19 are substantially the same as the inner peripheral radius of the collar portion 11 and the inner peripheral radius of the small diameter portion 17b of the pipe coupling ring 17, respectively. That is, the first pipe portion 15 and the second pipe portion 19 do not easily fall down due to the friction caused by the sealing material and the friction between the metals. As a result, the opening 25 of the pipe member 5 can be stopped at a predetermined height.

The sink lid 1 with a drainage function stores water in a water tank such as a sink to wash dishes and food, cool tea, sauce, soup, etc. in a container, and cool boiled food with water. Used when washing or washing with water. For example, how to use the sink lid 1 with drainage function when cooling a kettle containing hot tea will be described. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram thereof.

First, the sink lid 1 with a drainage function is installed at the drainage port 53 of the sink 51. The metal plate 7 of the lid member 3 completely covers the drainage port 53. Next, it is determined how much water is put in the water tank 55 of the sink 51 to cool the kettle 57. In this case, the water level must be such that water does not enter the kettle 57. According to the determined amount of water, the first pipe portion 15 and the second pipe portion 19 of the pipe member 5 are vertically expanded and contracted to adjust the height H of the opening 25. The height of the opening 25 is the water level for cooling the kettle 57. In this case, the height H of the opening 25 must not exceed the height of the mouth 59 of the kettle 57. Also, this height H can be adjusted at any time.

After the installation of the drainage-equipped sink lid 1 and the kettle 57 is placed on the bottom 61 of the water tank 55, water is flown from the tap 63 of the water supply. The water flowing from the faucet 63 is accumulated in the water tank 55 of the sink 51. Due to the water pressure, the rubber member 9 of the lid member 3 completely adheres to the bottom 61 of the water tank 55 around the drain port 53. With this, the drainage port 53 of the sink 51 is closed by the lid member 3. As the water continues to flow, the amount of water stored increases and the water level reaches the opening 25 of the pipe member 5. Since the hole 13 of the lid member 3 and the pipe member 5 are in communication with each other, the water reaching the height H of the pipe tip 21 passes through the inside of the pipe member 5 through the opening 25, and the water of the lid member 3 is discharged. It is discharged from the hole 13 to the drainage port 53 of the sink 51.

In this way, the height of the accumulated water is maintained at the height H of the opening 25 of the pipe member 5 even while the water is flowing from the tap 63. That is, the water does not overflow from the water tank 55 of the sink 51. Moreover, by continuing to flow the water, the accumulated water does not become warm and the kettle 57 containing hot tea can be cooled quickly.

After the kettle 57 is cooled in this way, the pipe member 5 is lifted up, and the water accumulated in the water tank 55 of the sink 51 is caused to flow to the drain 53. At that time, since the pipe member 5 is provided at a position deviated from the center of the lid member 3, naturally only the periphery of the hole 13 of the lid member 3 is lifted. Therefore, it is not necessary to resist the water pressure applied to all the metal plates 7 and lift them. Therefore, water quickly enters under the lid member 3, and the sink lid 1 with a drainage function can be easily removed.

When washing dishes and food, water may be stored in the water tank 55 of the sink 51. Also at this time, the drain lid 53 with the drainage function is installed at the drainage port 53 of the sink 51. By doing this, new water will be supplied and dirty water will be replaced one after another, enabling efficient washing. Even when the boiled material is cooled with water and immediately washed with water, if water is stored in the water tank 55 and run with running water, it is safe and quick without burns.

Further, since the lid member 3 is circular, its role does not change even if the lid member 3 is rotated horizontally to change the direction. The pipe member 5 is provided outside the center of the lid member 3. Therefore, when the pipe member 5 interferes with the work, the pipe member 5 can be placed in the corner of the water tank by replacing the sink lid 1 with the drainage function.

Next, FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the pipe tip portion 21 of the pipe member 5 is replaced with a modified pipe tip portion 81 having irregularities. The correction pipe tip portion 81 is provided with a convex portion 81a and a concave portion 81b. In this case, when washing vegetables, fruits, etc., an object 83 larger than the diameter of the correction pipe tip 81 stops at the convex portion 81a even if it is caught by the correction pipe tip 81. Then, water flows from the concave portion 81b of the correction pipe tip portion 81 to the pipe member 5. Therefore, unlike the case where the convex portion 81a and the concave portion 81b are not provided, the work is not delayed because the object 83 is caught. Further, if the size of the opening 85 is appropriately adjusted, the object 83 larger than the opening 85 does not flow down, so that there is no inconvenience that the object 83 falls into the drainage port 53.

Further, it is possible to obtain a corresponding effect with materials and sizes other than those of this embodiment. For example, the lid member 3 and the pipe member 5 can be made of plastic, rubber, metal, or a combination thereof. The shape of the lid member 3 may be a polygon such as a quadrangle other than the circle. In this embodiment, the pipe member 5 is divided into two parts and can be expanded and contracted, but this may be one fixed part or may be divided into three or more parts. If the height H can be locked in some way, the pipe will not slip off during work. Moreover, if the lid member 3 and the pipe member 5 can be detached, they are convenient for carrying. By covering the opening 25 of the pipe end portion 21 with a metal net, it is possible to prevent the washed articles and dust from falling into the drain outlet 53. The position of the hole 13 on the lid member 3 may be at the center of the lid member 3. The application place is not limited to the sink 51. It can also be installed to save water in tanks such as flush toilets. In addition to that, it can be used in various places such as baths, pools, and ponds. It is also possible to adjust the water level at those places to make it a depth suitable for children.
