Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make a drain hole hard to be clogged and make the check of clogging and the removal of rubbish much easier by providing a drain hole equipped with a perforated drain plate and a drain tank attached to an opening made at a corner between a bottom surface and both adjacent walls surfaces of a sink bowl having the bottom surface sloped toward the drain hole side. SOLUTION: A drain hole opened diagonally is made from the bottom surface 1a of a sink bowl 1 to an adjacent wall surface 1b at a corner portion of the bowl, and a perforated drain plate 2 preventing the inflow of large rubbish is attached to the opening in a detachable manner. The bottom surface 1a of the sink bowl 1 is slightly sloped toward the corner where the drain hole is located; and water in the sink bowl 1 flows toward the drain hole and then flows to a drain tank 3 through the perforated drain plate 2 and then moves down through a drain pipe 4. Thus, even though a pan or the like is placed in the sink bowl 1, the drain hole will never be clogged with a pan or the like, and while the pan or the like is placed there, clogging condition in the perforated drain plate 2 can be checked and rubbish-removing work can be easily carried out.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a kitchen sink.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, kitchen sinks having a drain at the center deep side of the bottom surface of a sink bowl have been generally used. However, when a large pot or tableware is placed on the sink bowl, they become drains. May be closed as if by a lid. In addition, it is easily blocked by garbage.

[0003] In such a state, good drainage is hindered, and water accumulates in the sink bowl.

In recent years, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-17459 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-26607, a sink bowl is provided with a drain port extending from the inner wall surface or the bottom surface to the inner wall surface. Proposed.

[0005] However, when a pot or the like is placed, it is difficult to check the state of clogging of the waste at the drain located at the back thereof, and it is also difficult to remove the waste.

Further, the drain tank and the drain pipe connected to the drain port are located at the center of the lower part of the sink bowl, and there is a problem that the storage space of the cabinet provided below the sink bowl is apt to be wasted.

[0007]

Therefore, the drain port is hardly blocked, and even when a large pot or the like is placed in the sink bowl, it is possible to easily check the state of clogging of the drain port and remove dust. In addition, there is a need for a kitchen sink that can effectively secure a storage space for a cabinet provided below the sink.

[0008]

According to the kitchen sink of the present invention, a drain opening is provided at a corner of a sink bowl (1) from a bottom surface (1a) to both adjacent wall surfaces (1b). The mouth is provided with a drainage plate (2) and a drainage tank (3), and a drainage pipe (4) is connected to the drainage tank (3), which is connected to the bottom (1a) of the sink bowl (1). Is characterized in that a slope is provided such that the drain port side is lowered.

[0009]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to preferred embodiments. Embodiment 1 FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a kitchen sink according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view thereof.

[0010] (1) is a sink bowl, the corner portion of which is provided with a drain port opened from the bottom surface (1a) to the adjacent two wall surfaces (1b).

The drain port is provided with a drain plate (2) for preventing large dust from entering the drain port. (3) is a drainage tank of a drainage port, which is connected to a drainage pipe (4).

The bottom surface (1a) of the sink bowl (1) is provided with a slight slope toward the corner having the drain port. Therefore, water in the sink bowl (1) flows toward the drain port, flows into the drain tank (3) through the drain hole (2), and is further drained through the drain pipe (4).

Since the drain port is provided at the corner of the sink bowl (1), the drain port is not blocked by the pot even when the pot is placed on the sink bowl (1).
In addition, even when the pot or the like is left, it is possible to easily check the state of clogging of the trash in the drainage tray (2) and to remove dust from the drainage tray (2).

[0014] Also, both drain walls are adjacent to the bottom surface (1a).
Since it is formed diagonally to (1b), the drainage plate (2)
The entire surface is not clogged with garbage, and the required drainage capacity can be maintained.

A drain tank (3) connected to the opening of the drain port,
The drain pipe (4) connected to the drain tank (3) is also a sink bowl.
Since it is located at the corner of (1), the space (5) in the cabinet below the sink bowl (1) can be used effectively without being obstructed by the drain tank (3) and the drain pipe (4). .

[Embodiment 2] FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a kitchen sink according to this embodiment. In the present embodiment, the shape of the sink bowl (11) is different from that of the first embodiment (1).

The sink bowl (11) of the present embodiment has a plane shape (7-sided shape) obtained by combining two rectangles. A drain port is provided at the corner located at the sidemost position, and a drainage plate (12) is attached.

Other configurations and effects are the same as those of the first embodiment.

[0019]

As described above, according to the present invention, the drain port is hardly blocked, and even when a large pot or the like is placed in the sink bowl, it is possible to easily check the state of clogging of the drain port and remove dust. Thus, a kitchen sink capable of effectively securing a storage space for a cabinet provided below the sink can be provided.
