Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a sink equipped with a garbage storage device.

See Figures 1 and 2 for storing and disposing of garbage such as vegetable scraps and leftover food that can be generated using the sink.
A device as shown in the figure is being considered. In other words,
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a garbage storage device installed in a cabinet of a sink, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the garbage storage device of FIG. 1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a garbage container 3 with a polyethylene bag (hereinafter abbreviated as "plastic bag") 1 attached inside with a stopper 2 or the like is installed in a cabinet 5 of a sink 4. ing. A top plate portion 7 directly above the top opening 6 of the garbage container 3 is provided with an opening 8 into which garbage can be thrown, and the garbage is thrown in through this opening 8 and stored in the garbage container 3. . Reference numeral 9 denotes a lid that closes the opening 8 except when garbage is being thrown in.

However, with this garbage storage device, the odor from the garbage container leaks into the cabinet during storage, and when the door of the cabinet is opened and the garbage container is taken out, the odor is strong and disgusting, which is not sanitary.

This idea was created in view of these circumstances. By connecting the opening of the top plate and the opening of the garbage container with a cylindrical guide, and creating a sealed state between them, the odor from the garbage container is removed from the cabinet. To provide a sink with a garbage storage device that does not leak inside.

The idea is that a garbage container with an opening on the top is installed inside the cabinet, and the top plate directly above the opening has an opening into which garbage can be thrown and a lid to seal the opening. , the sink with a garbage storage device is characterized in that the opening of the top plate and the opening of the garbage container are connected by a cylindrical guide. Hereinafter, this will be described in detail based on drawings showing examples thereof.

FIG. 3 is a sectional view of essential parts showing an embodiment of the sink with a garbage storage device of this invention. In FIG. 3, a garbage container 3 having an opening on the top surface is provided in a cabinet 5 of the sink. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the top surface of the garbage container 3 is covered with a lid 10, and an opening 11 is provided in the center of the lid 10, but the invention is not limited to this.
If there is one, it may be formed integrally with the side part of the garbage container 3. In that case, an opening door or the like may be provided on the side of the garbage container to allow the garbage to be taken out. A plastic bag 1 is placed inside the garbage container 3, and the lid 1 is placed inside the garbage container 3.
0, the plastic bag 1 is fixed in an expanded state. The top plate portion 7 directly above the opening 11 of the garbage container 3 is provided with an opening 8 into which garbage can be thrown.

A cylindrical guide 13 is inserted through the opening 8 of the top plate, thereby directly connecting the openings 8 and 11. A flange 14 is formed at the upper end of the cylindrical guide 13. The flange 14 is fitted into a step 12 formed around the opening 8 of the top plate to suspend and support the cylindrical guide 13. The lower end 15 of the cylindrical guide 13 is connected to the opening 11 of the lid 10.
is in contact with the peripheral wall 16 of. The opening 8 of the top plate is
It is sealed with a lid 9 except when putting in garbage. Therefore, in FIG. 3, a step 17 is provided on the upper edge of the cylindrical guide 13, into which the lid 9 is fitted.

In this configuration, the garbage thrown in after opening the lid 9 passes through the cylindrical guide 13 to the garbage container 3 directly below.
stored inside. When the amount of garbage stored increases and you want to take out the garbage, insert the cylindrical guide 13 into the top plate opening 8.
remove more. Next, the cabinet door (not shown) is opened and the waste container 3 is taken out. Garbage container 3
Remove the lid 10 and open the plastic bag 1 to collect the garbage. Next, when installing, the garbage container 3 with the lid 10 placed thereon and the new plastic bag stored and fixed therein is placed into the cabinet. The cylindrical guide 13 is inserted through the top plate opening 8, and the flange 14 is fitted into the step 12 to complete the installation. In this case, care is taken so that the side surface of the lower end 15 of the cylindrical guide 13 and the surface of the surrounding wall 16 of the opening 11 of the garbage container are in contact to maintain a sealed state.

Since the sink with a garbage storage device according to this invention has such a configuration, the odor inside the garbage container is maintained in a sealed state and does not leak into the cabinet.

FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of this invention. The opening 8 of the top plate and the opening 11 of the garbage container are directly connected by a cylindrical guide 18. In this embodiment, on the peripheral wall of the opening 11 of the lid 10 of the garbage container 3,
A groove 20 into which the lower end 19 of the cylindrical guide 18 can be fitted
Water 21 is placed in the groove 20 to improve sealing performance. In this case, the lower end 1 of the cylindrical guide 18
9 is bent to expand and fit into the groove 20, so that the outer wall surface 22 of the groove 20 is aligned with the inner wall surface 23 of the cylindrical guide 18.
It is preferable to configure it so that it is slightly outward. This is because when doing so, there is no fear that the garbage will fall into the groove 20 when the garbage is thrown in. Since the garbage container configured as shown in FIG. 4 is kept in a sealed state and the position where the garbage container is placed can be moved somewhat within the width of the groove 20, there is no need for strict processing accuracy. Another advantage is that leakage of bad odors is completely prevented.

Figures 5a and 5b show yet another embodiment of this invention. The opening 8 of the top plate and the opening 11 of the garbage container are directly connected by a cylindrical guide 25. In FIG. 5, the opening 11 of the garbage container 3
The lower edge 24 of the cylindrical guide 25 opens when pressed downward by insertion of the cylindrical guide 25 (Fig. 5a), and opens when the cylindrical guide 25 is removed (Fig. 5b).
A lid 26 that can be opened and closed is provided. The lid 26 is
It is attached by a spring type hinge 27 or the like. With the configuration shown in FIG. 5, even when the garbage container is taken out of the cabinet, the odor inside the garbage container will not leak out at all.

Since the sink with a garbage storage device of this invention is constructed as described above, the odor inside the garbage container will not leak into the cabinet. Therefore,
Even when you open the cabinet, you won't be bothered by bad odors and it's hygienic.
