Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to furniture with a tank such as a sink or a wash basin, and in particular, a rotatable and removable plate is provided in the tank to drain dishes, expand the cooking surface, etc.
This invention relates to a new and improved furniture having a plate inside a tank which can be used for various purposes such as use as a top plate and creating a protective wall for fire implements.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, sinks have been known in which a draining plate is detachably attached or slidably disposed in the upper part of a sink to enlarge the cooking surface and the draining surface for washing items.

This invention enables a wider range of effects to be achieved than conventional ones by placing a rotatable and detachable plate in the tank.
A detailed description will be given below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes the top plate of the sink, which has a water tank 2 approximately in the center, and a drain surface 3 that also serves as a cooking surface is formed on the right side of the water tank 2.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a bearing plate disposed on opposing vertical surfaces of the water tank 2, and has two bearing parts 4a and 4b vertically spaced apart as shown in FIG. The upper bearing part 4a is arranged at approximately the same height as the water cutting surface 3, and the lower bearing part 4b is located slightly above the bottom surface of the water tank 2. It is not necessarily necessary for the bearing parts 4a, 4b to be constituted by a bearing plate 4 separate from the water tank 2, and it may be possible to form a part of the water tank 2 into one piece. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the bearing plate 4 is arranged approximately at the center in the width direction of the water tank 2, and the bearing parts 4a and 4b rotatably receive the shaft part of the plate, which will be described later. It is formed in a U-shape that opens upward so that it can be easily removed.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a plate, which has a size and shape that can be disposed within at least one half of the water tank 2, and the plate 5 has a shaft at one end that is rotatably and removably supported by the bearing portion 4a or 4b. It has part 6. In order to horizontally support the plate 5 which is pivotally supported by either the bearing part 4a or 4b, protruding support parts 7 are formed on both sides facing the other end of the plate 5. The support portions 7 are formed at substantially the same height as the bearing portions 4a and 4b, and are vertically spaced apart from each other, and support the plate 5 horizontally. In the illustrated embodiment, the support part 7 is provided protruding from a plate-like member separate from the aquarium 2 and is fixed to the aquarium; would also be good. Alternatively, the upper edge of the water tank 2 may be used as a support and the water tank 2 may be placed and supported on the upper edge of the water tank 2, that is, on the end of the water cutting surface 3 that is continuous with the water tank.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the plate 5 is formed as a drainage plate having a plurality of drainage holes, but as shown in FIG. A two-layer structure with surface 9 may also be used.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the plate 5 is supported by the upper bearing part 4a and the support part 7 and is disposed continuously on the draining surface 3, the draining surface is enlarged and the washing object is drained. It is possible to expand the area and the cooking surface by rotating the plate 5 at the same height position and positioning it in the other half of the water tank.
A work surface on which a finishing plate or the like is placed can be created in the upper half of the water tank 2. In addition, if it is placed and supported by the lower bearing part 4b and the support part 7, it will be like creating a shelf in the middle of the water tank 2, so that you can drain heavy or tall items, or store drained items. The drainage hole can also be hidden by rotating and positioning it above the drainage hole 10.

Figure 5 shows a plate that can be folded in two.
It has a size and shape that can cover almost the entire surface of the aquarium 2 when it is unfolded horizontally, and the central folding shaft prevents rotation of more than 180 degrees and holds the plate 5 in a horizontally unfolded state. Alternatively, the water tank 2 may be held horizontally by being supported by a support formed on the side wall of the water tank 2. The plate 5 is rotatably supported on one end of the water tank 2, and when folded and stood upright,
Fire equipment 1 such as a stove placed adjacent to the water tank 2
It is possible to use plate 5 as a protective wall for 2. It should be noted that those skilled in the art will easily understand that in order to use the plate as a protective wall in this way, it is not necessary that the plate has a bifold structure, and that the pivot position of the plate only needs to be placed at one end of the water tank 2. could be done.

As described above, according to the furniture having a plate in the tank of this invention, the bearing parts 4a and 4b are arranged vertically at intervals in the water tank, and the bearing part 4a or 4b
Since the plate has a shaft part 6 that can be rotated and detachably supported, the plate can be placed in a water tank at a position approximately flush with the upper surface of the furniture top plate or at a position below the top surface of the furniture top plate. It is possible to enlarge the cutting surface and cooking surface, create a work surface for the top plate, create a shelf-like mounting surface in the aquarium, hide the drainage hole, etc., and it can bring an extremely wide range of uses and advantages, and the upper plate. By making it stand upright and protrude upward from the top surface, it can also be used as a protective wall for fire implements placed adjacent to the water tank. In addition, by changing the structure of the plate 5, it can be used as a draining plate, a finishing plate, or a cooking surface.Since the plate 5 has a rotating structure, by making the upper and lower two surfaces different from each other, at least This makes it possible to obtain the effects of two types of plates.
