Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a structure of a vanity having a shower head that is vertically movable on a counter.

[Prior Art] In recent years, there has been provided a vanity in which a shower head is vertically movable on a counter so that hair can be washed in addition to washing. In this type, a shower head that can be moved up and down on the counter and a water heater in the wash cabinet under the counter are connected by a flexible shower hose, and a water receiving tank is placed under the shower head in the wash cabinet. The shower hose is stored in a loose U-shape. The shower head can be pulled up or down by slackening the shower hose, and the water flowing down from the shower head along the shower hose can be received by the water receiving tank.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] By the way, since the shower hose is simply inserted into the water receiving tank through the upper opening of the water receiving tank, the shower hose bends freely without being restricted in the water receiving tank, and therefore the shower hose is twisted. When the shower hose is twisted, there is a problem that the direction of the shower head may be changed carelessly.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-described points, and the object of the present invention is to prevent the shower hose from twisting even when the shower head is moved up and down, so that the orientation of the shower head does not change. To provide a vanity.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the wash basin of the present invention has a shower head 30 which is vertically movable on a counter 8 and a hot water heater 41 which is arranged in a wash cabinet 10.

Bottom cylindrical water receiving tank
43 is arranged in the washbasin cabinet 10 below the shower head 30 so that the wider side faces the depth direction, and the shower hose 42 is placed in the water receiving tank 43 from the opening on the upper surface.
The interior of the water receiving tank 43 is provided with a notch 54 on the wide side surface of the water receiving tank 43 from the top opening downward.
Shower hose 42 is stored in 43. Shower hose 42 is inserted into and cut into cutout 54 at a bent portion orthogonal to shower hose 42.
Fixed to 43.

[Operation] The shower head 30 can be moved up and down on the counter 8 to wash the face and wash the hair. At this time, water falling from the shower head 30 along the shower hose 42 is received by the water receiving tank 43 and does not spill into the washbasin cabinet 10. When the shower head 30 is moved up and down, the shower hose 42 deforms in the water receiving tank 43, but since a part of the shower hose 42 is fixed to the water receiving tank 43, the shower hose 42
Does not twist, and the orientation of the shower head 30 does not change carelessly when the shower head 30 is moved up and down.
