The present invention relates to a key height adjusting device for a sink, and in particular, even a housewife, a child, or a body free person, who is shorter than the height of a standardized sink, standing on the sliding foot and washing dishes such as dishwashing comfortably and freely. Of course, it is also possible to cook, and also relates to a height adjustment device for a sink that can create a practical space utilization by securing a storage space in the interior of the sliding scaffold to accommodate the goods used in the kitchen.

In general, the height of the sink is conventionally shaped to approximately 80 ~ 90cm to fit the height of the body of the housewife, that is, the height of the housewife mainly working in the kitchen, the reality is custom made for people with special physical conditions.

As such, Korean housewives work approximately 1/4 to 1/5 of the day in a conventional sink having a typical height, and two to three hours are cooking or washing dishes standing in front of the sink. If you bend your back 20 degrees while standing, your weight will be more than twice your weight, so if your sink does not fit your height, it can cause a variety of spinal disorders, including back pain.

Also, in recent years, children share the household chores of their parents in many places, such as children washing dishes on behalf of their mothers. However, as described above, the conventional sink has a standardized height, and in order to help children wash dishes in the sink or wash the fruits, they have to stand on a separate chair or box and work on it.

However, when the children climbed onto a chair or box to wash dishes, the chair or box fell down during the washing process, and there was a risk of falling, and after washing the dishes, the chair or box had to be removed again.

Of course, the support leg of the conventional sink is fixed to the bottom surface of the sink while at the same time the height adjustment member is mounted to adjust its height by rotating the rotation of the height adjustment member in one direction to increase the height of the sink, Rotation in the direction to reduce the height of the sink.

However, in order to adjust the height of the sink by the rotation of the height adjustment member provided on the support leg of the sink, the user has to rest on the lower part of the sink to rotate the height adjustment member one by one to adjust the same height. Of course, the height adjustment of the sink by the rotation of the height adjustment member is only about 5cm or so does not give much help.

Furthermore, once the height of the sink is adjusted by the rotation of the height adjusting member, it is often very difficult to adjust the height of the sink at all times, so that the height adjusting member is actually a kitchen rather than a means for adjusting the height of the sink. It can be said that it is used during the initial construction to horizontally install the sink on the bottom of the floor.

Therefore, there is a need for a new height adjustment device for a sink that can solve the above problems.

The present invention was created in view of the above necessity, and even a housewife, a child, or a body-free person, who is shorter than the height of a conventional standardized sink, climbs on the sliding foot, comfortably and freely, such as washing dishes. It is an object of the present invention to provide a height adjusting device for a sink, which can also be cooked.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to allow the user to selectively adjust the height of the sliding foot and at the same time to facilitate the sliding movement of the sliding foot, to adjust the height of the sink for the sink to create a more safe and practical kitchen environment The purpose is to provide a device.

Figure 10 is a perspective view showing a state in which the pressure plate is coupled to the sliding scaffolding, Figure 10 is a cross-sectional view showing a coupling state of the roller member according to the present invention.

First, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the present invention includes a guide panel 50 provided at a lower portion of the sink 10, and slidingly coupled with the guide panel 50 to front and rear directions based on the sink 10. Consists of a sliding scaffold 100 is installed to be movable.

More specifically, as shown in the embodiment of Figure 1, the guide panel 50 is fixed at both ends to the support leg 30 of the lower sink 10 by a bolt or the like, as shown in the exploded perspective view of Figure 2 The guide rail 50a protruding from the side is formed.

Here, the support leg 30 is formed in a square pillar as shown in Figure 1 rather than formed in a cylindrical, it is easier to fix the guide panel 50, but the support leg 30 and the guide panel ( It is not necessary to combine the 50 after the separation and fabrication, it is of course that the support leg 30 and the guide panel 50 can be used by integrally manufacturing from the beginning.

In addition, the number of the guide rails 50a varies according to the structure of the sliding scaffold 100, which is permanently installed below, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the sliding scaffold 100 has an upper scaffold 70 and a lower scaffold ( In the case of the upper and lower two-stage stack of 75), a pair is formed as shown in FIG. 2, and the sliding foot plate 100 is bent between the main foot plate 90 and the main foot plate 90 as shown in FIGS. 5 to 8. When the auxiliary scaffold 95 of the upper and lower two-stage stacking is mounted on the unit 90a, it is made of one.

On the other hand, the sliding scaffold 100 is slidingly coupled to the guide panel 50, so that the guide panel (50) must be installed to be movable in the front and rear direction relative to the sink 10, the guide panel ( Guide grooves (100a) that can accommodate the guide rail (50a) formed on the side of 50 should be formed.

That is, the guide rail 50a of the guide panel 50 is accommodated in the guide groove 100a of the sliding scaffold 100 as shown in the coupling sectional view of the guide panel 50 and the sliding scaffold 100 of FIG. As a result, the sliding scaffold 100 can perform a certain sliding movement (sliding movement) along the guide rail 50a of the guide panel 50 and at the same time prevent the left and right shaking of the sliding scaffold 100. will be.

However, the guide groove (100a) of the sliding scaffold 100 is preferably configured to accommodate a guide rail (50a) of the guide panel 50 to have a slightly spaced up and down space.

As such, the reason for forming a slight separation space in the guide groove 100a is that when the roller member 110 to be mounted below the sliding scaffold 100 has a predetermined rolling motion of the roller member 110. This is to block by load.

On the other hand, on the basis of the accompanying drawings an embodiment of the sliding scaffold 100 according to the present invention will be described in detail as follows.

First, the sliding scaffold 100 of FIGS. 2 and 4 consists of a two-stage stacking of the upper scaffold 70 and the lower scaffold 75, and both side portions of the upper scaffold 70 and the lower scaffold 75. The guide grooves 100a are formed in the guide rails 50a to accommodate the guide rails 50a protruding from the side portions of the guide panel 50.

In addition, the rear end of the upper scaffold 70 is provided with a locking piece 70a which vertically protrudes downward to engage the rear end of the lower scaffold 75.

Here, the heights of the upper scaffold 70 and the lower scaffold 75 may be formed to have the same length as in FIGS. 2 and 4, but may be configured to have different heights.

In addition, guide grooves 100a for accommodating the guide rails 50a are formed at both sides of the upper scaffold 70 and the lower scaffold 75, respectively.

Therefore, the upper scaffold 70 and the lower scaffold 75 are each sliding by a constant external force, that is, pushing and pulling along the guide rails 50a of the guide panel 50.

In addition, when the upper scaffold 70 is pulled out by the locking piece 70a formed at the rear end of the upper scaffold 70, the lower scaffold 75 is also drawn out.

However, even if the lower scaffold 75 is pulled outward, the upper scaffold 70 is not drawn out to the outside, but only the lower scaffold 75 is drawn out as shown in FIG. Will be able to adjust.

That is, a person whose height is relatively small pulls the handle 100c of the upper scaffold 70 forward to draw out both the upper scaffold 70 and the lower scaffold 75 and then uses the sink 10. In addition, a person who is relatively tall may use the sink 10 while pulling the handle 100c of the lower scaffold 75 forward to draw out the lower scaffold 75 to the outside.

Here, the handle (100c) is made of a one-touch type when not in use so that it is recessed inside the sliding scaffold (100). Of course, in the following embodiments, the handle 100c having the same function is formed.

Meanwhile, the sliding scaffold 100 of FIGS. 5 to 8 includes a main scaffold 90 and an auxiliary scaffold 95 having two upper and lower tiers stacked on the bent portion 90a of the main scaffold 90. A plurality of predetermined fitting grooves 97 are formed on the upper surfaces of the main footing 90 and the auxiliary footing 95, respectively, and the bottom surface of the auxiliary footing 95 is forcibly fitted into the fitting groove 97. The fittings 99 which can be formed are respectively formed.

Of course, guide grooves 100a for receiving guide rails 50a protruding from the side surfaces of the guide panel 50 are also formed on both lower sides of the main foot plate 90, respectively. The main foot plate 90 is a sliding motion by a constant external force, that is, push and pull along the guide rail 50a of the guide panel 50.

Here, the auxiliary scaffold 95 is preferably made of a two-stage stack of the auxiliary upper foot plate (95a) and the auxiliary lower foot plate (95b), the auxiliary upper foot plate (95a) and the auxiliary lower foot plate (95b) also the upper surface thereof. The plurality of fitting grooves 97 are formed therein, and a plurality of fittings 99 are formed on the lower surface of the fitting grooves 97 to be forcibly fitted into the fitting grooves 97.

Therefore, after drawing the main footboard 90 to the outside and washing dishes, or the like, or if it is determined that the height of the main footboard 90 is not enough, the auxiliary upper foot plate 95a as shown in FIG. 6A or 6B or The auxiliary upper foot plate (95a) and the auxiliary lower foot plate (95b) by removing the upper surface of the main foot plate 90 can be used after interference fit.

As described above, the auxiliary scaffold 95 is combined with the main scaffold 90 so that even if the baby is relatively short, the dishwasher 10 can be washed without difficulty.

On the other hand, the interior of the sliding scaffold 100 can be formed in a separate storage space 150 as shown in Figs.

In addition, as shown in Figure 9 by combining the acupressure plate 130 is formed with a plurality of acupressure protrusions (130a) to the front end of the sliding scaffold 100 to promote blood circulation of the foot during labor such as washing dishes as well as fatigue It is desirable to be able to solve. The pressure plate 130 is in contact with the bottom surface by its own weight, preferably made of a rubber material.

Meanwhile, a plurality of roller members 110 are mounted on the bottom surface of the sliding footrest 100 shown in FIGS. 1 to 9, that is, the bottom footrest 75 or the bottom face of the main footrest 90. It is configured to achieve cloud movement.

Here, the roller member 110 is a spring 111 for providing elasticity while connecting the roller 111, the housing 113 surrounding the roller 111, both ends of the housing 113 and the bottom surface of the scaffold. ), The lower surface is fixed by a screw 119 is preferably located on the upper portion of the roller 111 and comprises a stop piece 117 to block the movement of the roller 111 by a predetermined load. .

That is, the roller member 110 configured as shown in Figures 2 and 10 is mounted on the lower surface of the sliding scaffold 100 to minimize the vibration or noise with the bottom surface during the sliding movement of the sliding scaffold 100 do.

In addition, when the sliding scaffold 100 is pulled forward and standing thereon to wash dishes, if the sliding scaffold 100 is not fixed to the floor, the sliding scaffold 100 may be slightly impacted or shaken while washing dishes. ) Is moving forward and backward, which carries the risk of falling.

However, after mounting the roller member 110 as shown in Figure 2 on the lower surface of the sliding scaffold 100, a person stepped on the sliding scaffold 100, human load as shown in Figure 10 As a result, the spring 115 of the roller member 110 is contracted so that one end of the stop piece 117 is in frictional contact with the roller 111 so that the roller 111 no longer performs rolling motion. Will be.

The spring 115 is restored again when it is lowered from the sliding scaffold 100 to release the friction contact between the stop piece 117 and the roller 111 so that the sliding scaffold 100 smoothly follows the bottom surface. Sliding movements can be made.

Here, of course, the spring 115 has to be elastic enough to not shrink by at least the weight of the sliding scaffold 100. In addition, the guide groove 100a is slightly spaced apart as described above with reference to FIG. 3 in order to allow the sliding scaffold 100 to be moved finely back and forth by a load of a person standing on the sliding scaffold 100. It should be configured to have

In addition, the upper surface or the lower surface of the sliding scaffold 100, and the roller 111 is to use a rubber of the urethane material to minimize the noise and vibration and of course to enable a smooth sliding movement and rolling movement.

The key height adjusting device for the sink configured as described above provides the following effects.

First, it is accommodated in the space between the bottom of the sink and the bottom, and slidingly coupled with the guide panel provided on the bottom of the sink comprises a sliding scaffold movable in the front and rear direction relative to the sink, the height of the conventional standardized sink Even a shorter housewife, child, or body-free person can step up on the sliding foot and comfortably and freely wash dishes such as dishwashing, and also cook. After washing dishes or cooking, the sliding foot is returned to its original position. Simply push it back to its original condition.

Second, the sliding foot is composed of the upper and lower two steps of the upper foot and the lower foot, or by configuring the auxiliary foot of the upper and lower two-stage stacking mounted on the bent portion of the main foot and the foot, the height of the sliding foot Optionally, it provides an effect that can be properly adjusted to your height.

Third, by mounting a plurality of roller members to perform a rolling motion with the bottom surface on the lower portion of the sliding scaffold, the rolling motion of the roller member is configured to be blocked by a predetermined load, so that when the sliding scaffold Minimize the occurrence of vibration, while the sliding scaffolding while washing dishes, etc., the sliding scaffold is fixed to the bottom surface to eliminate the risk of falls provides an effect to ensure safety.
