Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a countertop for a kitchen unit installed in a small-scale housing complex, a one-room apartment, or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a small-scale apartment house or a one-room apartment, a kitchen unit corresponding to a small space called a mini kitchen has been normally installed and used. This kitchen unit is installed in a narrow space. There is a restriction that
mm and 1200 mm are common, and the depth dimension is generally 500 mm, and the height dimension is optimally 1900 mm as a dimension to fit under the interior beam of an apartment house. As shown in FIG. 3A, the kitchen unit has a box shape, and its configuration is divided into a lower unit 10 and an upper unit 20, and these two units are assembled at the installation site to be self-supporting. ing. The lower unit 10 includes a sink 12 made of stainless steel or the like, a heating device 13 such as a one-port electric stove or a one-port gas stove, and a countertop 11 made of a metal plate such as stainless steel to which a water faucet 14 and the like are attached. The lower part is provided with a cabinet 15 with a door that can accommodate a small refrigerator 16 and the like. On the other hand, in the upper unit 20, the storage box 24 and the lighting 25 are attached between the side panels 21 and 21 on both sides, which are made of non-combustible material, the back panel 22, and the ceiling panel 23 in accordance with the regulations of the Fire Service Law, and the ceiling panel 23 is installed. Has a structure in which a ventilation fan 26 is attached.

Conventionally, the counter top 11 made of stainless steel in the above-mentioned lower unit is shown in FIG.
As shown in (b), the sink 12 is attached to the plane portion of the countertop 11 by welding or the like, and the above-mentioned one-hole electric stove or one-hole gas stove is installed in the hole for incorporating the heating device formed next to it. A heating device 13 such as the above is incorporated, a faucet 14 is attached to the rear portion of the sink 12, and a back guard 11a as a water sink is integrally provided upright on the rear edge portion of the counter top 11. There is. Therefore, as the countertop 11, a left-side sink specification in which the sink 12 shown in FIG. 3B is mounted on the left side in the width direction of the countertop 11 so as to be compatible with kitchen unit products of different left and right, Sink 12 to countertop 11
With the right side sink specification attached on the right side of the
You need two types of countertops, one on the left and the other on the right.

[0004]

By the way, in recent years, the cost of this type of kitchen unit has been reduced, and the cost reduction measure as a kitchen maker has become an important issue. Among the components of the kitchen unit, FIG. Since the cost ratio occupied by the counter top shown in (b) is the largest, it is an issue to reduce the cost of this member. As a cost reduction measure for this countertop, it is conceivable to reduce the material cost and the processing cost, but as a measure to reduce the material cost, the method of reducing the material cost by thinning the stainless steel plate will reduce the strength of the counter flat surface. There is a problem such as stickiness, which is not realistic, and the reduction in the amount of area used for stainless steel is not significant because the frontage dimension and the depth dimension are fixed. Therefore, as a measure to reduce the processing cost, the countertop is a pressed product of a stainless steel plate, and in the case of this press processing, it is efficient to continuously produce the same shape with the same mold, There are two types of counter tops, which are left and right, as described in the related art of the above. Therefore, it is supposed that the molds will be exchanged each time it is produced, which causes the increase in processing cost. Had.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems of the prior art, and its object is to provide a countertop having a symmetrical front-rear shape without any difference between left and right sides. It aims to provide a kitchen unit countertop that can increase the amount of products produced and reduce processing costs.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, a countertop of a kitchen unit according to the present invention is a counter in which a sink is attached in the width direction of a countertop made of one metal plate and a heating device is incorporated. In the top, the front edge portion and the rear edge portion of the countertop, a back guard portion consisting of a rising wall for water flip, an upper edge surface and an outer hanging wall are formed in the same shape and the same size,
In the center of the countertop in the depth direction, the sink having a front-rear symmetrical shape is arranged and attached, and the hole for incorporating the heating device is formed in a front-rear symmetrical shape, so that the entire countertop has a centerline in the depth direction. To have a front-back symmetrical shape.

[0007]

The back guard portion, which is composed of the rising wall for water return formed on the front edge portion and the rear edge portion of the counter top, the upper edge surface and the outer hanging wall, is formed integrally with the counter top. The outer hanging wall in the back guard formed on the front edge portion and the rear edge portion of this countertop has the surface of one of the outer hanging walls located on the front side of the kitchen unit. The lower end is dimensioned so as to be located below the flat surface of the countertop. Therefore, in the back guard portion formed on the front edge portion and the rear edge portion of the counter top, the back guard portion located on the rear side when the counter top is attached to the kitchen unit serves as a conventional back guard, The back guard portion located on the front side functions as a water return guard.
