Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to the structure of a counter with a sink.

[Prior Art] In a conventional counter, an auxiliary counter is fixed to the rear part of the main counter in a state of protruding upward, and a sink is arranged on the rear side of this auxiliary counter so that a sink person is seated in front of the counter. It was made invisible, and the person on the sink side put food, tableware, etc. on the auxiliary counter and the person sitting in front of the counter took it.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the above-mentioned conventional example, since the auxiliary counter is fixed in a state of protruding upward, it is not possible to cope with wide use of the counter.

The present invention was devised in view of the problems of the conventional example described above, and the purpose thereof is to lower the auxiliary counter when the auxiliary counter can be moved up and down and the auxiliary counter is projected upward. If you want to use the counter widely, you can freely select it and choose various usage modes,
Another object of the present invention is to provide a structure of a counter with a sink that can be used as a lid of the sink when the auxiliary counter is lowered so that the inside of the sink cannot be easily seen from the outside.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The structure of the counter with a sink of the present invention is such that a sink is arranged adjacent to a main counter, and an auxiliary counter capable of covering at least a part of the sink is vertically movable. By adopting such a configuration, the problems of the conventional example described above are solved and the object of the present invention is achieved.

[Operation] However, when the auxiliary counter 3 is raised, the auxiliary counter 3 can be arranged so as to project above the main counter 1. In this state, a person stands in front of the sink 2 while hiding the sink 2 with the auxiliary counter 3. While working, you can sit on a chair etc. in front of the main counter 1 and have a meal,
A person on the sink 2 side places food, tableware, etc. on the auxiliary counter 3 while working with the sink 2 so that a person on the sink 2 side can eat from the main counter 1 side. Further, when the auxiliary counter 3 is lowered, the auxiliary counter 3 serves as a lid for the sink 2 so that the inside of the sink 2 cannot be seen from the outside.

[Embodiment] The present invention will be described in detail below based on an embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an example of a counter with a sink according to the present invention, which constitutes a part of the system kitchen A. The counter with a sink is such that the main counter 1 is arranged on the upper surface of the cabinet 4, and in the embodiment of FIG. 1, the main counter 1 is formed on the rear side of the central part of the main counter 1 having a substantially semicircular shape in plan view. A sink 2 is arranged adjacent to the counter 1. An auxiliary counter support 5 is provided between the main counter 1 and the sink 2, and an auxiliary counter 3 is provided above the auxiliary counter support 5, and the auxiliary counter support 5 can be lifted and lowered by an elevating device 12. Therefore, this allows the auxiliary counter 3 to move in the vertical direction. The auxiliary counter 3 can cover at least a part of the sink 2 and cover the upper opening of the sink 2 in a lowered state. That is, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the auxiliary counter 3 covers a part of the sink 2. Further, in the embodiment of FIG. 4, the auxiliary counter 3 is divided into a main body 3a and a rotating body 3b, which are rotatably connected by a hinge portion 3c, and the rotating body 3b is placed on the main body 3a. Stacked state and rotating body 3b
Is rotatable between the main body 3a and a state in which the sink 2 is flush with the main body 3a. When the rotary body 3b is flush with the main body 3a, part or all of the sink 2 is covered. It has become. The auxiliary counter support 5 may be, for example, a storage box so that various stored items can be stored therein, or as shown in FIG. 3, the inside of the auxiliary counter support 5 is a food storage 6 and ice is stored inside. Put it in, put fresh food such as fish on it, and see the inside from the person on the main counter 1 side or the person on the sink 2 side through the transparent plate such as glass that constitutes the outer surface of the auxiliary counter support 5 You may Here, the auxiliary counter 3 may be formed of smoked glass or the like. Further, the auxiliary counter support portion 5 may be the refrigerator 11 as in the embodiment of FIG. In this case, a compressor 11a for use as a refrigerator is housed in a part of the auxiliary counter support portion 5. The refrigerator 11 is preferably provided with a door on at least one of the main counter 1 side and the sink 2 side, and preferably on both sides. And if the door is transparent, the inside can be seen from the outside.

Then, when the lifting device 12 raises the auxiliary counter 3, the auxiliary counter 3 rises and the auxiliary counter 3 is arranged at a position projecting above the main counter 1 as shown in FIG. It becomes a stepped counter like this, so that the sink 2 can not be seen by the person sitting in front of the main counter 1,
Since the sink 2 rises, a person standing on the side of the sink 2 can face the person sitting on the front side of the main counter 1 while working with the sink 2 on the side of the sink 2. Here, when the auxiliary counter 3 is composed of the main body 3a and the rotary body 3b rotatably attached to the main body 3a as shown in FIG. 4B, the rotary body 3b is rotated to rotate the main body 3a. You may make it open on the upper side of the sink 2 by stacking on the upper surface. In this case, the rotating body 3b may be projected further forward than the front end of the main body 3a which is stacked below. On the other hand, when the auxiliary counter 3 is lowered, the auxiliary counter 3 is also lowered together with the sink 2, and the auxiliary counter 3 is lowered to a level close to that of the main counter 1 (preferably, the main counter 1 and the auxiliary counter 3 are flush with each other). The main counter 1 and the auxiliary counter 3 constitute a wide counter, and in this case, the auxiliary counter 3 is lowered to cover at least a part of the upper opening of the sink 2 and the auxiliary counter 3
Is also used as a lid. Here, in the embodiment of FIG. 4, the rotating body 3b is rotated to cover the sink 2.

In addition, in FIG. 1, a cooking heating device 14 such as a stove, an electromagnetic cooker or the like is arranged at the rear part of each side of the main counter 1 (that is, both sides of the sink 2), and above this cooking heating device 14. A lid 15 is detachably placed, and a heating device 14 for cooking is attached.
When using, remove the lid 15 and use it for cooking.
When 14 is not used, the lid 15 is covered and the lid 15 is connected to the main counter 1 to form a wider counter.

[Advantage of Invention] As described above, in the present invention, the sink is arranged adjacent to the main counter, and the auxiliary counter that can cover at least a part of the sink is vertically movable. When you raise, the auxiliary counter can be arranged to project above the main counter, and the main counter and the auxiliary counter can form a stepped counter like a so-called sushi bar counter, while hiding the sink with the auxiliary counter in this state. A person can stand in front of the sink and work while sitting on a chair or the like in front of the main counter to have a meal.People on the sink side can place food, dishes, etc. on the auxiliary counter while working with the sink. Then, people on the main counter side can eat from the main counter side. Also, by lowering the auxiliary counter, it is possible to make a counter with a large area by the main counter and the auxiliary counter, and in this case, the auxiliary counter serves as a lid of the sink and the inside of the sink cannot be seen from the outside, and the appearance is good, Further, since the lid of the sink can be used also as the auxiliary counter, the number of members can be reduced. Moreover, in both cases where the auxiliary counter is raised to form a so-called stepped counter, and when the auxiliary counter is lowered to form a large-area counter consisting of the main counter and the auxiliary counter, the sink is seen from the main counter side. It can be prevented.
