Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a kitchen sink provided on a sink cabinet or the like, and having a recess recessed rearward in the middle of a rear wall thereof.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 8, there is conventionally known a kitchen sink in which a recess 3 is formed in the middle of a rear wall 2 of a sink body 1 so as to be recessed rearward. The kitchen sink is provided on a sink cabinet 14. In this case, an opening 16 is formed in a counter 15 serving as a top plate of the sink cabinet 14, and the sink body 1 is the same as the opening 16. It is attached and fixed to the counter 15.

An upper edge flange portion 4 is formed integrally with the opening edge of the sink main body 1 over the entire circumference, and a water supply pallet is provided on the rear upper edge flange portion 4 at one side of the recess 3.
17 are protruding. The bottom of the sink body 1 has a recess 3
A drain port 18 is formed at a position where the sink body 1 enters the sink body 1 using water discharged from the water supply cull 17.
The washing operation is performed in the inside, and the waste water is discharged and removed from the drain port 18. Therefore, in this case, in the middle of the sink main body 1, it is possible to wash a large-sized wash such as a frying pan or a pan in the recess 3, which is convenient.

In the kitchen sink, a locking piece 5 is provided on the rear upper flange 4 on the rear side of the sink body 1 at a position corresponding to the rear of the recess 3. And a cage body 6 which is retained in the recess 3 so as to be detachably accommodated therein. Therefore, in this case, the cage 6 is locked to the locking piece 5 to be housed and held in the concave portion 3 in a normal state when the large-sized washing is not washed as described above, and the detergent and the scrubber are placed in the cage 6. It is convenient because it can store the washing articles such as the ones without getting in the way.

[0005] Further, in the kitchen sink, a concave stepped edge portion 23 is formed over the entire periphery of the opening edge of the sink body 1 except for the concave portion 3.
And a plate 7 which is detachably mounted between the concave step edges 23 on the front and rear sides of the sink body 1 and supported. Therefore, in this case, it is convenient that the washing can be temporarily placed on the plate 7 during the washing operation, drained in this state, or the cooking operation can be performed on the plate 7.

[0006]

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, the plate 7 is liable to move in the left-right direction, and in the recess 3 it is easy to wobble out of the concave step edge 23 or to drop off. For this reason, the plate 7 was not securely installed and supported. In addition, the plate 7 is not formed long in the front-rear direction to the extent that it covers the upper opening of the recess 3, and the plate 7 is used in a wide range in the front-rear direction in the middle of the sink body 1. Was not possible. It is also conceivable that the plate 7 is formed to be long in the front-rear direction and installed and supported between the upper edge flange portions 4 on both front and rear sides of the sink body 1.
In this case, not only is the plate 7 not securely installed and supported, but also the locking piece 5 protruding from the upper edge flange 4 on the rear side hinders the installation and support of the plate 7 itself. Was difficult.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve all the problems in the prior art described above. That is, the object of the present invention is to provide a basket for storing a large number of items to be washed. It can also be held so that it does not become inconsistent, and the plate can be securely installed and supported in the middle of the sink body, and it can be used over a wide range in the front and rear direction on the plate, providing a convenient kitchen sink It is to be.

[0008]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a kitchen sink having a recess recessed rearward in the middle of the rear wall of the sink body, and a position corresponding to the rear of the recess. A locking piece projecting from the upper edge flange portion on the rear side of the sink body, being locked by the locking piece and removably housed and held in the recess; And a plate which is removably mounted and supported between upper edges of both front and rear sides of the sink main body.

[0009] Therefore, in this case, it is convenient to wash a large washing such as a frying pan or a pan in the middle of the sink main body with the washing into the recess. or,
Normally, when the large-sized washing is not washed, the basket body is locked by the locking piece and stored and held in the recess, and the basket, the detergent, the scrubber and the like are stored so as not to disturb. It can be convenient. In addition, the plate can be locked to the locking piece by utilizing the same locking piece, and the plate can be reliably installed and supported so as not to move between the upper edges of the front and rear sides of the sink body. Also, at this time, the plate can be erected without any trouble in the middle of the sink body so as to cover the upper opening of the recess, and the plate can be conveniently used in a wide range in the front-rear direction.

[0010] The kitchen sink according to claim 2 of the present invention comprises:
The kitchen sink according to claim 1, wherein opposing concave steps are formed on upper edge flanges on both front and rear sides of the sink body, and the plate is engaged and held between the front and rear concave steps. It is characterized by having done.

Therefore, in this case, particularly when the plate is erected and supported, the plate is engaged and held between opposing concave steps formed on the upper edge flanges on the front and rear sides of the sink body. The plate is prevented from being shifted in the front-rear direction, and is more securely supported and installed.

A kitchen sink according to a third aspect of the present invention comprises:
3. The kitchen sink according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the rear plate portion and the front plate portion longer in the front-rear direction than the rear plate portion are connected and integrated via a bendable portion to form a plate. A through-opening is formed in the rear plate portion, the through-opening is locked by the locking piece, and the upper end of the locking piece protrudes upward from the through-opening, and is bent upward and rearward in front of the plate. The plate portion is supported in contact with the upper end of the locking piece and is held in a state of being inclined rearward.

Therefore, in this case, in particular, the plate supported by being erected by the through-opening formed in the rear plate portion being locked by the locking piece is formed by the front plate portion, which is long in the front-rear direction, centering on the bendable portion. By bending the plate so as to be pivoted upward and rearward, the plate is cleared rearward outside the sink body so that the plate remains locked and not obstructed when not in use. In addition, at this time, the front plate portion is supported in contact with the upper end of the locking piece protruding upward from the through opening and is held in a state of being tilted rearward. There is no inconvenience such as hitting.
