Definitions
- This invention relates generally to countertops and their installation. More particularly, it relates to countertops of the type commonly installed in a work area, such as a kitchen, and to devices and methods for enabling installation of fixtures such as sinks and cooking ranges atop such counters.
- Kitchens and other areas requiring a stable flat surface upon which work may be conducted have been known for some time as benefiting from having built-in countertops which line the inner perimeter of the room. It is believed that nearly all kitchens include at least one countertop upon which foods are cut, prepared, or otherwise processed by people prior to being cooked, eaten, or stored.
- Kitchen countertops have over the years been comprised of a wide variety of materials, including without limitation: wood, plastic veneered wood, polymer composites, metals, laminated substrates, stainless steel, polymers such as CORIAN® polymer, epoxies, and natural stone.
- a premium material from which countertops are fabricated are natural stone materials, including a wide variety of marbles and granites.
- the raw stone is first cut into slabs of the appropriate length, width, and thickness dimension.
- the surface which is to be the work surface is polished to a high luster using techniques known to those skilled in the art, which also may include rounding or beveling of end and/or edge portions.
- the countertop slab is placed into its final position and may be secured in place using a conventional construction adhesive between the underside of the slab and the frame upon which it rests, which is often a wooden cabinet. At this stage, the countertop is ready for use by persons desiring to prepare foodstuffs.
- Providing an opening for a sink or a cooking range typically requires that a rectangular hole having a dimension on the order of about 30 inches by 20 inches be cut into the stone slab, which stone slab is commonly about 1 to about 2 inches thick.
- the cutting of such a hole provision is not a small or trivial undertaking, and is commonly carried out by a skilled laborer using a hand-held diamond saw.
- the operation inherently includes the possibility that the slab will be broken, marred, defaced, blemished, or otherwise irreparably damaged during the cutting, or a sizing error made.
- the invention provides an adapter useful as a component in providing countertops in a work area which comprises: a) a substantially planar base portion which comprises a first end portion, a second end portion, a front portion and a rear portion, a top surface, a bottom surface, a length dimension and a width dimension; b) a front lip portion having a length dimension, a width dimension, and a thickness dimension, wherein the front lip portion is attached to the front portion of the base portion such that the length dimension of the front lip portion coincides with the length dimension of the base portion and the width dimension of the front lip portion extends in a direction downward from the plane of the base portion; and c) a cutout hole disposed through the base portion, which cutout hole is adapted to receive a fixture selected from the group consisting of: cooktop ranges and sink basins.
- an adapter useful as a component in providing countertops in a work area which comprises: a) a substantially planar base portion which comprises a first end portion, a second end portion, a front portion and a rear portion, a top surface, a bottom surface, a length dimension and a width dimension; b) a front wall portion having a length dimension, a width dimension, and a thickness dimension; c) a rear wall portion having a length dimension, a width dimension, and a thickness dimension, wherein the front wall portion is attached to the front portion of the base portion such that the length dimension of the front wall portion coincides with the length dimension of the base portion and the width dimension of the front lip portion extends in a direction downward from the plane of the base portion; d) a first bottom portion disposed beneath the bottom surface portion of the base portion at the first end portion of the base portion, wherein the first bottom portion has a first end portion and a second end portion, wherein the first end portion of the first bottom portion is in contact with the rear
