Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the kitchen equipment whose workability is satisfactory, and also, whose application to a combined installation with other containing box is high. CONSTITUTION:As for a shape of the front edge of a work top 6 in which a water tank 7 and a portable cooking stove 8 are installed, the center front edge 10 is like a circular arc, and both side end edges 9 are like a right angle. In front of the lower part of both the side end edges 9, an auxiliary table 12 which can be drawn out freely is installed. Since a shape of the work top 6 in the center is formed in a plane and roughly like a circular arc, when a worker moves to use of the portable cooking stove 8 from the water tank 7, the worker scarcely moves and the moving line is shortened by only varying a direction of the body, and the workability is improved.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a kitchen device such as a sink or a system kitchen.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In this type of conventional kitchen device, as shown in FIG. 6, a worktop 1 is formed in a substantially planar I shape for the purpose of multifunctional cooking work and improvement of usability, and a water tank 4 is provided on the front side. And a stove 5 and a lower meal counter 3 on the rear side.

[0003]

In the conventional structure as described above, the center line portions of the water tank 4 and the stove 5 are arranged so as to be substantially parallel to the front edge of the work top 1 which is linear. The line is as shown by the arrow C in FIG. 6, and when the water tank 4 and the stove 5 are separated, the worker moves between the water tank 4 and the stove 5, which poses a problem that the work burden on the worker is heavy. there were. The present invention solves such problems,
An object of the present invention is to provide a kitchen device that reduces the amount of movement of an operator to reduce the work load.

[0004]

In the kitchen apparatus of the present invention, at least the front edge of the worktop is formed in a substantially arcuate plane shape, and a stove and a water tank are provided on the upper surface of the worktop, and a central portion of the stove and the water tank is provided. The center line portion connecting the above is arranged substantially parallel to the front edge of the worktop.

[0005]

In the kitchen apparatus of the present invention, at least the front edge shape of the worktop is formed in a substantially arcuate plane shape, and the worktop upper surface is provided with the stove and the water tank, and the centerline portion connecting the stove and the central portion of the water tank is provided. Since it is arranged substantially parallel to the front edge of the worktop, the worker can change the direction of the body with little movement of the washing work in the water tank and the cooking work on the stove, or a slight movement, Work can be performed, and workability is improved in the case where the frontage has the same size.

[0006]

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

In the figure, reference numeral 6 denotes a work top, a center front edge 10 of which is substantially arcuate in a plane, a water tank 7 and a stove 8 are provided, and both side edges 9 are formed in a right-angled shape. 11
Is a cabinet that supports the worktop 6. Auxiliary table 12 that can be pulled out forward at the upper part of cabinet 11 at both ends, dishwasher 13 at the lower part of one side, microwave oven 1
4 are installed respectively, a towel rack 16 is installed in the center of the cabinet 11 under the sink of the refrigerator 15 and a guard plate 17 having a substantially circular arc shape is installed on the worktop 6 to splash water to the meal counter 19. Prevents heat transfer.

In the above structure, since the worktop 10 is formed in a substantially arcuate plane shape, when the worker shifts from the water tank 7 to the stove 8, the worker points his or her body in the direction of arrow a in FIG. Is changed to the direction of arrow b, the flow line is shortened, and the workability is improved. A meal counter 19 is provided in front of the work counter 18, so that the worker can work while facing the meal and talking. Furthermore,
The cooking space is reduced because the installation distance between the water tank 7 and the stove 8 is improved to improve the workability, but the cooking space can be secured in the rear part, and the auxiliary tables 12 are provided on both sides of the worktop to reduce the cooking space. We are trying to secure it.

Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 5 shows another embodiment. In this embodiment,
A cupboard and a refrigerator can be continuously arranged in the right-angled 9 portions on both side edges of the worktop 6, and the storage and usability can be further improved.

[0010]

As is apparent from the above description of the embodiments, according to the present invention, at least the front edge shape of the worktop is formed into a substantially arcuate plane shape, and the worktop upper surface is provided with a stove and a water tank. Since the center line portion connecting the stove and the center of the water tank is arranged substantially parallel to the front edge of the worktop, the worker hardly moves the washing work in the water tank and the cooking work on the stove. The work can be performed only by changing the direction of the body or by slightly moving the body, and the workability is improved in the case where the frontage has the same size.
