DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a kitchen sink equipped with a kitchen accessory storage device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a sink, which is attached to a lower portion of a counter 3 placed on the kitchen cabinet 2, a faucet 4 is attached to the left side of the back of the sink 1, and a drain port 5 is provided substantially at the center of the sink 1. It is provided. A kitchen accessory storage device 5 is installed on the opposite side of the faucet 4 across the sink 1.

The kitchen accessory storage device 5 comprises a soap dispenser 6 as a central body, and a kitchen detergent tray 7, a sponge scrubbing tray 8 and a dust receiving tray 9 rotatably and three-dimensionally arranged in the sink. It is fixed to a base 10 that protrudes to the inside of 1.

FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view showing a mounting structure of the kitchen accessory storage device 5, FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of a main part of the kitchen accessory storage device, and FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. It is a figure.

As shown in FIG. 2, the upper end of the base 10 is located at a level lower than the counter 3, and below the base 10, a space for accommodating the cleaning container 6a of the soap dispenser 6 is formed. There is. Further, the sink 1 is fixed to the lower surface of the counter 3 by the mounting fitting 3a.
The nozzle 6c of the soap dispenser 6 has a length such that it can be ejected to the outside of the contour of the base 10 and can be ejected to each tray 7, 8, 9.

In the soap dispenser 6, a nozzle 6c is rotatably and vertically movable attached to an upper end of a main body 6b which is fixed by penetrating an attachment hole 10a of a base 10. Inside the main body 6b, the sectional view of FIG. As shown in the drawing, a valve mechanism 6d for discharging the detergent in a substantially fixed amount by utilizing the change in the internal pressure when the nozzle 6c is once pushed down is housed. The nozzle 6c is pivotally connected to the upper end of the valve mechanism 6d.

The body 6b of the soap dispenser is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 5, the annular member 11 having the opening 11a formed on one side is rotatably attached to the upper and lower three stages independently of each other. Each annular member 11 is provided with a box-shaped kitchen detergent tray 7, a sponge scrubbing tray tray 8 having a drainage hole 8a formed on the entire surface, and a ring-shaped dust receiving tray 9 from the upper side. Each of these trays 7, 8 and 9 can be made of resin or rust-resistant metal such as stainless steel. If the surface of the trays 7, 8 and 9 is treated with a water repellent such as a fluorine resin, stains can be removed. It is easy and can always be kept clean. Further, it is preferable to provide a gap between the trays 7, 8 and 9 so that the trays can be stacked in three stages even in a state in which items are placed.

The installation place of the kitchen accessory storage device 5 is not particularly limited, and may be anywhere around the sink 1, but in consideration of usability, the sink 1 or the counter 3 is fixed by opening the inner part thereof. Is desirable. Also,
In addition to the structure described above, the tray is, for example, on the bottom plate of the tray,
It is also possible to form a water draining hole at the leading edge by providing a gradient toward the tip.

Next, the kitchen accessory storage device 5 of the above embodiment
How to use is explained.

When the detergents, sponges, etc. stored in the trays 7, 8 and 9 are not used, the trays 7, 8 and 9 are superposed on each other so that the circumference of the sink 1 becomes orderly and the appearance is improved. Especially by rotating it out of the sink 1,
It does not interfere with the sync work. When used, the trays 7, 8 and 9 are rotated around the soap dispenser 6 and the required trays are brought onto the sink 1 to easily take out the desired one. When a sponge is used, it is convenient that the sponge scrubbing tray 8 is positioned directly below the nozzle 6c of the soap dispenser and the soap is discharged, so that the work can be performed with one hand.

As described above, the kitchen accessory storage device 5 neatly collects detergent, sponge, etc., which were conventionally scattered around the sink, in one place, which saves space and work in the sink or around the sink. It leads to improvement of sexuality, usability and aesthetics. In addition, when using a stored item such as a detergent or a sponge, it is possible to easily use it without bothering hands.
