Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a kitchen counter applied to kitchen equipment, and in particular, it simplifies washing of the counter surface with water and provides a sink with a function to dry tableware. [Prior art] Conventionally, in this type of kitchen counter, convenience is improved by:

The counter body is placed in series on the upper surface on which a sink, storage box, or cooking table are arranged in an appropriate combination.
This counter body has a configuration in which a sink part, a work table, and a grill part are arranged in parallel on the counter surface of the counter body so as to correspond to the sink, storage box, or cooking table, thereby increasing the convenience of dressing. It is well known.

For traditional kitchen counters like this.

The rear edge of the counter surface of the counter body is used as a back guard, and the front edge of the counter surface is formed as a rising part to prevent water from overflowing and falling from the counter surface when putting shoes on or using the sink. The current situation is that

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, with the conventional structure described above.

Since the draining section is only formed on both the front and back edges of the counter surface, when washing the counter surface, there is a risk that water may fall from the left and right edges of the counter surface onto the floor, so the entire surface of the counter is washed at once. Not only is this impossible, but there is also the risk of water overflowing and falling into the grill area.Also, when drying tableware that has been washed in the sink, it is best to stack the tableware on the counter surface and dry it naturally. Another problem is that wiping with a cloth takes time and effort.

This invention was made under the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a kitchen counter that allows the entire surface of the counter to be washed with water and dishes to be dried easily. be.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention arranges a sink part, a workbench, and a grill part in parallel on the counter surface of a counter main body, and A kitchen counter with a raised draining part formed on the edge, wherein the sink part is provided with a hot air outlet, and the hot air outlet is configured to blow out hot air branched from a hot air generator. It is.

[Function] With the above configuration, the entire outer peripheral edge of the counter surface on the front, rear, left and right sides and the entire peripheral edge of the grill portion are formed as a raised draining portion, so that the entire surface of the counter can be washed with water. can be done all at once.

In addition, warm air outlets are provided in the sink section, and warm air branched from the hot air generator is blown into the sink section from each hot air outlet. You can easily dry tableware, etc.

[Embodiment] The present invention will be described below with reference to an illustrated embodiment.

FIG. 1 shows the overall appearance of a kitchen counter according to the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a counter body made of stainless steel, for example, and the upper counter surface 2 and 4 are
and a second sink portion 3, 4 consisting of a large and small double sink.
A grill section 5 and a workbench 6 are arranged side by side.

The counter surface 2 of the counter main body 1 is as follows.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, by forming the entire outer peripheral edges of the front, rear, left, and right sides of 1 and the entire peripheral edge of the grill portion 5 in an upright manner, the draining portions 21, 22, 23, 24, and 25 are formed,
The draining portion 22 formed rising from the rear edge of the counter surface is
The upper end surface 22a is formed to be relatively wide and flat, and is configured as a pack guard surface that is sloped downward toward the front.

Further, on the inner surfaces facing each other between the draining portions 21 and 22 on both the front and rear edges of the counter surface 2 of the counter main body 1,
Guide rails 26 and 27 are formed with two steps, and between the guide rails 26 and 27, an auxiliary plate 7 that also serves as a foot plate, a tableware stand, a sink cover, etc. is installed on the left and right longitudinal sides of the counter surface 2. It is provided so as to be slidable along the direction.

Further, reference numeral 8 in the figure denotes a water tap disposed on the back guard surface 22a of the draining portion 22 formed upright at the rear end edge of the counter surface 2 of the counter main body 1.
27, so that the sliding range of the auxiliary plate 7 extends over the entire length of the counter surface 2 in the left and right longitudinal direction. It makes it possible. In addition, 9 in the figure is a draining portion 2 formed upright on the rear edge of the counter surface 2 of the counter main body 1.
Similar to the water faucet 8 described above, there is a notch formed in the back guard surface 22a of 2 for storing small items such as detergent containers. The auxiliary plate 7
This allows the sliding range to extend over the entire length of the counter surface 2 in the left and right longitudinal directions.

Furthermore, numeral 10 in FIG. 1 is a hot air generator installed below the counter surface 2 of the counter main body 1.

As shown in FIG. 4, this hot air generating device 10 has a second air generator that opens into the side of the second sink portion 4 through a branch valve 11 and first and second blow pipes 12,13. 1 hot air outlet 14 and a second warm air outlet 15 opened in the back guard surface 22a of the draining portion 22 formed upright on the rear edge of the counter surface 2 of the counter main body 1. 12a.

13a so that warm air can be blown arbitrarily and selectively, thereby blowing hot air from the first hot air outlet 14 into the second sink part 4 to The washed tableware stored in the section 4 is dried.

A drying process in which footboards, etc., which are propped up on the back guard surface 22a, and cloths, etc., hung on a hanger above the back guard surface 22a, are dried by blowing hot air from the second warm air outlet 15. It has functions. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, 16 in FIG. 1 is a lid body that covers the second sink portion 4 on the counter surface 2 of the counter main body 1, and has a hot air outlet 17 opened on its upper surface 16a. In addition, the above-mentioned first hot air outlet]-
By blowing hot air into the second sink part 4 from the second sink part 4, tableware and the like stored in the second sink part 4 can be efficiently dried.

[Effects of the Invention] As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, a sink portion, a workbench, and a grill portion are arranged side by side on the counter surface of a counter main body, and the sink portion, the workbench, and the grill portion are arranged side by side on the counter surface of the counter main body, and The kitchen counter has a raised draining part, and the sink part is provided with a hot air outlet, and the hot air outlet is configured to blow out hot air branched from the hot air generator. The entire surface of the counter can be washed with water at once, and warm air is selectively blown into the sink, making it easy to dry washed dishes stored in the sink. This has an excellent effect.
