Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Field of Application> The present invention relates to a two-tank cabinet used for installing a water tank such as a wash basin or a sink, and a multi-purpose water tank such as a laundry sink.

<Conventional technology> Conventionally, this type of dual-tank cabinet was
Two openings are provided in the counter on the upper surface of the cabinet body in parallel in the width direction, and a water tank such as a washbasin is fitted and supported in each of these openings.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> However, since the conventional two-aquarium cabinet has a structure in which two aquariums are supported side by side on the counter, the width of the counter increases, and as a result, the width of the counter increases. However, there is a problem in that the width of the cabinet body increases.

Therefore, it is conceivable to support a washbasin or sink on the counter on the top of the cabinet body, and to accommodate a multipurpose water tank such as a laundry sink inside the cabinet body so that it can be taken out and put in. However, in this case, both water tanks and their water supply and drainage system are They interfere with each other,
In order to prevent the two water tanks and their water supply and drainage systems from completely interfering with each other, they must be spaced apart in the width direction, resulting in the problem of an increase in the width of the cabinet as described above.

In view of such conventional circumstances, the present invention is designed to connect a wash basin or sink supported by the counter of the cabinet body and a multi-purpose water tank such as a laundry sink housed inside the cabinet body in a part-length section in the width direction without interfering with each other. The purpose is to shorten the width dimension of the cabinet body by making it possible to arrange the cabinets in an overlapping manner.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The technical means taken by the present invention to solve the above problems is to provide an opening in which a wash basin or sink is fitted and supported in one half of the left and right sides of the counter on the upper surface of the cabinet body. The interior of the cabinet main body is divided in the width direction by a partition wall into a space below the washbasin or sink, and a storage chamber that accommodates a multipurpose water tank such as a laundry sink so that it can be taken in and out from the front, and the partition wall The upper side is characterized by providing a notch through which the outer periphery of the washbasin or sink extends over the partition wall to a position above a multi-purpose water tank such as a laundry sink in the accommodation chamber.

<Function> The function of the present invention is that the outer periphery of the washbasin or sink straddles the partition wall through the notch and projects above the multi-purpose water tank such as the laundry sink in the storage room, so that the washbasin or sink and the laundry sink can be separated. By arranging the multi-purpose water tank and the multi-purpose water tank so that they overlap in a part of the length section in the width direction, the multi-purpose water tank, such as a laundry sink, can be placed in front of the storage room without interfering with the washbasin or sink by sharing a part of the installation space in the width direction. It is something that is taken in and taken out more frequently.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

This embodiment shows the case of a washbasin as shown in Figure 1, in which a washbasin b is supported on a counter 1 on the upper surface of a cabinet main body A, and a laundry sink c is accommodated inside the cabinet main body A as a multi-purpose water tank so that it can be removed and retracted.

As shown in FIG. 5, the cabinet body A is provided with an opening 1a in one half of the left and right half of the counter 1 in the width direction, into which the wash basin b is fitted and supported, and the interior of the main body A is provided with a wash basin in the width direction by a partition wall 2. Space below the vessel 3
and a storage chamber 4 for accommodating a laundry sink c.

The partition wall 2 is provided with a notch 2a on its upper side, through which the outer periphery of the washbasin b straddles the partition wall 2 and projects to a position above the laundry sink c in the accommodation chamber 4. , the washbasin b and the laundry sink c are arranged so as to overlap in a part of the length section in the width direction without interfering with each other.

Space 3 below the washbasin divided by partition wall 2
indicates the water supply system of washbasin b, that is, a water supply faucet 6 and a hot water supply faucet 7 connected to a faucet 5 consisting of a hot and cold mixing faucet on the top surface of the washbasin, and a drain pipe 9 connected to a drain port 8 of washbasin b.
and a drainage trap 10, and the surplus space of the housing space for the water supply and drainage system is used as a storage space. Further, the bottom surface of the space 3 is covered with two bottom plates 11 and 12, and the drain pipe 9 and drain trap 10 are inserted through a through hole 13 formed between these bottom plates 11 and 12. One of the bottom plates 11 and 12, that is, the through hole 13
The bottom plate 11 on the opposite side of the partition wall 2 serves as a bottom wall when the space 3 is used as a storage space, and is removably screwed to the crossbar 14 at the bottom of the space 3. A planar L-shaped baffle plate 15 is fixed upright on the peripheral edge surrounding the hole 13.

The reason why the bottom plate 11 is made removable is that the drain pipe 9 and drain trap 10 extending downward from the bottom plate 11 are designed to be removable.
This is to make maintenance and inspection of the equipment easier.

Further, the baffle plate 15 prevents the stored items from colliding with the drain pipe 9 and the drain trap 10 when the stored items are taken in and out of the space 3, and
This prevents stored items from falling into the through hole 13.

A door 16 consisting of a hinged door is provided at the front of a portion of the space 3 that serves as a storage space, and the space 3 is opened and closed by this door 16.

On the other hand, the front side of the storage chamber 4 is open, and the washing sink c can be taken in and taken out from the front side.
The means for making it possible to take in and take out the laundry sink c is to support the laundry sink c on a wagon d, ground the rear casters 17c of the wagon d on the bottom wall 4a of the storage chamber 4, and place the front casters 17b on the floor F. It is grounded.

A guide groove 4b is formed in the bottom wall 4a of the storage chamber 4 over a predetermined length section in the front-rear direction to guide the rear caster 17c, and the rear caster 17c is formed at the front and rear ends of the guide groove 4b.
When the washing sinks come into contact with each other, the washing sink c stops at the pulled-out position and the housed position, respectively. The caster guide provided on the bottom plate 4a may be a guide rail 4d, as shown in FIG.
In this case, the rear caster 17c is the stopper 4.
e and the washing sink stops.

Note that the guide rails may be one each of outer (or inner) rails 4da and 4db. In addition, a notch 4c is formed on both left and right front sides of the bottom wall 4a of the storage chamber to accommodate the front casters 17b of the wagon d in the storage position of the laundry sink c.

When the laundry sink c is accommodated in the storage chamber 4, the front surface of the chamber 4 is closed by the front plate 18 of the wagon d. That is, the front plate 18 also serves as the door of the storage chamber 4.

On the other hand, the water supply and drainage system of the laundry sink c partially shares the water supply and drainage system of the washbasin b, and this shared structure simplifies the piping work.

That is, the water supply system for the laundry sink c is constructed by branching the water supply pipe from the washbasin b water supply faucet 6 and the hot water supply faucet 7 to the faucet faucet 5 and the hot water supply conduit using branch fittings 19 and 20, respectively, to form the hot water mixing faucet 21. The secondary side of the hot water mixing faucet 21 is connected by a flexible hose 22 to a water spout fitting 23 facing above the laundry sink c.

In response to the structure of such a water supply system, the cabinet body A has a chamber 24 that accommodates the operating handle 21a of the hot water mixer faucet 21 in the space below the washbasin.
The partition wall 2 is formed with an insertion hole 2b through which the flexible hose 22 is inserted. The room 24 is provided with a door 25 in the form of a hinged door at the front thereof, and by opening the door 25, the operating handle 21a can be operated from outside the cabinet body A. A stopper plate 25a is attached to the back side of the rotating end of the door 25 of the room 24, and when the washing sink c is not in use, the stopper plate 25a comes into contact with the front plate 18 of the wagon d, so that the door 25 is closed. The opening movement of the operating handle 21a is prohibited to prevent unnecessary operations of the operating handle 21a.

The insertion hole 2b of the partition wall 2 is a long hole extending horizontally in the front-rear direction, and guides the movement of the flexible hose 22 when loading and unloading the laundry sink c.

On the other hand, the drainage system of the laundry sink c is constructed by connecting a flexible hose 27 to the drain port 26 on the bottom of the laundry sink, and connecting the hose 27 to the drainage system of the washbasin b by a joint 28 just before the drain trap 10 thereof. be.

In response to the structure of such a drainage system, in the main body A of the cabinet, an insertion hole 2c for a flexible hose 27 is formed in the lower part of the partition wall 2, and
Bottom plate 12 on the partition wall side in the space 3 below the washbasin
supports the flexible hose 27 horizontally together with the bottom plate 17a of the wagon d. The insertion hole 2c is a long hole extending horizontally in the front-rear direction, and guides the movement of the flexible hose 27 when loading and unloading the laundry sink c.

The reason for supporting the flexible hose 27 horizontally is to prevent the formation of double drainage traps due to the flexible hose 27 hanging down, and to ensure smooth drainage.

As described above, in the washstand equipped with the cabinet of this embodiment, the washing sink c is housed in the housing chamber 4 of the cabinet body A when it is not in use.

When using the laundry sink c, the laundry sink c is pulled out from the storage chamber 4 together with the wagon d, as shown in FIG. When the wagon d is pulled out, its rear casters 17c are moved by the guide groove 4b.
By being guided by the guide, the movement can be carried out smoothly without causing sideways swing or twisting. That is, by adopting the structure in which the rear casters 17c are guided by the guide grooves 4b, even if the floor surface F on which the front casters 17b touches the ground has some irregularities or irregularities in levelness, the movement of the wagon d, that is, the washing can be carried out. It is possible to stably and smoothly take in and out the sink c.

Incidentally, in order to prevent dew condensation inside the cabinet when the laundry sink is filled with hot water and stored, a lid 31 may be provided on the laundry sink as shown in FIG.

If the lid 31 is provided with an opening 31a or a notch, if water is accidentally discharged with the lid on, or if the hot water mixer faucet is not properly closed, the water will flow through the opening 31a or the notch. Because it goes into the laundry sink, water does not overflow and wet the surrounding area.

In particular, when the opening 31a is provided directly below the spout (if the spout is rotatable, it may be an arc-shaped opening), the water passes through the opening 31a and directly into the washing tub. Because it enters the tank, there is no splashing or getting the surrounding area wet.

Further, to prevent condensation inside the cabinet, a ventilation opening or a ventilation fan may be provided in the cabinet storage room to allow water vapor to escape.

Furthermore, the partition wall 2 is connected to a flexible hose 25 for water supply and drainage, as shown in the partition wall 32 in FIG.
The guide holes 2b, 2c consisting of 26 elongated holes are made into round through holes 2ba, 2ca, and the respective flexible hoses are passed through the guide holes 2b, 2c. By providing this, the moisture-proofing effect of the space below the basin in the cabinet can be enhanced.

<Effects of the Invention> Since the present invention has the above configuration, it has the following advantages.

The outer periphery of the washbasin or sink straddles the partition wall through its notch and extends above the multipurpose water tank such as a laundry sink in the storage room, and the washbasin or sink and the multipurpose water tank such as the laundry sink are separated by a part of the length in the width direction. By overlapping the sections, a multipurpose water tank such as a laundry sink can be taken in and out from the front of the storage chamber without interfering with the washbasin or sink, sharing part of the installation space in the width direction. The width dimension can be shortened and the cabinet body can be made more compact in the width direction.
