[0001] The present invention relates to a sinking sieve assembly and a sink device including a sterilizing function,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a sink apparatus, and more particularly, to a sink apparatus and a sink apparatus including the sink apparatus including the function of sterilizing a sink screen to filter out debris.

A sink is a kind of kitchen equipment used for cooking or washing dishes in the kitchen. The sink unit can be used as a facility for washing objects by using water or liquid fluid in addition to the kitchen equipment. The sink unit includes a bucket unit for providing a space for receiving water to clean items to be cleaned, such as vegetables or vegetables, or washing dishes such as dishes or pots, and a drainage unit for draining the used wastewater to the bucket unit And the like. The drain portion may include a sink hole provided in a bottom portion of the bucket portion, a drain tube connected to the sink hole, and a drain pipe connected to the drain tube.

The waste water drainage section is provided with a drainage network for filtering residual waste left in the sewage, for example, food waste or foreign matter. When the water used to wash dishes, vegetables, fruits, etc. is poured out to the outside, the filter can filter out the food waste contained in the sewage, so that the bacteria can reproduce various bacteria in the food waste. Since the drainage tube is always exposed to an environment in which moisture is maintained, an environment favorable for propagation of bacteria can be maintained in the drainage tube provided in the drainage tube, and it is required to periodically clean the filtration system. When sinks are used in kitchens where hygienic conditions are particularly required, it is required to clean the sieve net to prevent bacterial growth in the hygienic sieve. If the filter is not finely cleaned, residual debris or foreign matter will remain in the mesh of the sieve mesh, causing them to decay and actively reproducing the bacteria, causing bad odors resulting from the propagation of the bacteria, Can be seriously threatened.

Although the user removes food waste and foreign matter by cleaning the mesh gap of the screen using a cleaning brush or a wringer, there is a limit to cleanly remove fine food waste and foreign matter that are invisible. In addition, although the filter cloth is washed using a chemical agent for sterilization, since chemical agents need to be applied to the sink for cooking the food, a great deal of care must be taken, which may lead to inconvenience and stability.
