Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Field of Industrial Application" The present invention relates to an improvement of a hygienic workbench also serving as a cutting board for hygienic processing of food.

"Prior Art" In the food industry, a workbench such as a cutting board requires hygiene as a first condition, and conventionally, there is a workbench shown in Figs. 2 and 3. In the figure, 11 is a stainless steel frame,
The cutting board 12 is placed on the upper surface of the frame base 11, or a fitting frame is formed on the frame base 11 and the cutting board 12 is fitted into the fitting frame. The cutting board 12 is made of polyethylene free from germs and is detachably formed from the frame 11. The cutting board 12 is detached from the frame 11 and washed and sterilized to maintain hygiene. Further, leg feet 15 on which adjustment screws 14 whose height can be freely adjusted are formed are screwed and formed on the bottoms of the legs 13 of the frame base 11. In the lower part of the frame stand 11, there are provided shed racks 16 fixed to the legs 13 at the four corners to form a shelf.

"Problems to be solved by the invention" Since the conventional sanitary workbench is configured as described above, the cutting board itself can be hygienically maintained by washing or other means, but raw fish or raw meat to be cooked. A phenomenon in which sewage such as drip and washing water that consists of viscera and blood components sneak into the bottom surface of the cutting board 12 due to a capillary phenomenon, soaks between the cutting board 12 and the frame 11, and germs propagate and decay. Was not spared. In addition, sewage drops on equipment and products on the drainboard shelf 16 formed at the bottom of the frame 11 to stain it, or even drops on the legs 15 to corrode the adjusting screw 14 of the legs 15 and rotate. There was a problem such as making it impossible. Furthermore, since the mounting position of the legs of the frame base, which is a workbench, is substantially aligned with the outer peripheral portion of the cutting board, there is a problem in that the legs of the frame base interfere with the cooking work and workability is poor.

"Means for Solving Problems" The present invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and is configured as follows.

In a sanitary workbench configured with a frame having legs at four corners and a cutting board placed on the frame, a cutting edge is formed by protruding the peripheral edge of the cutting board from the outer peripheral portion of the frame. By engraving a groove on the four sides of the lower surface of the, the legs of the frame stand are formed in a pipe shape, and the adjusting feet are screwed to the inner bottom of the pipe-like legs to provide leg feet. It is an object of the present invention to provide a sanitary workbench that can prevent the propagation of various bacteria and the like and enhance the hygienic effect of the workbench, and that is durable and can improve cooking workability.

"Operation" When using the sanitary workbench according to the present invention, a kitchen knife is used to process food such as fish or meat pieces on the cutting board.
Spilled water such as drip from the food is transmitted from the periphery of the cutting board and wraps around to the lower side, but since the outer peripheral edge of the cutting board is formed on the protruding edge protruding from the outer peripheral portion of the frame, it drips onto the frame. There is nothing to do. Moreover, since the lower surface of the protruding edge of the cutting board is engraved with streak grooves, even if dirty water goes around, it collects in these streak grooves, so it drips downward from the front corner of the streak groove, Before seeping into the gap between the table and the cutting board,
All sewage is dropped onto the floor and removed. Also, since dirty water is dripped from the protruding edge, it does not reach the legs of the frame stand located inside and the products on the lower shelf, let alone the adjusting screw that is screwed on the inner bottom of the pipe-like legs. There is nothing to do. Further, since the legs of the worker inside the projecting edge can enter, the circumference of the foot is free and workability is good.

[Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on an illustrated example. First
FIG. 1 is a side view of a part of a sanitary workbench according to the present invention, which is partially cut.

In the figure, 1 is a cutting board, and this cutting board 1 is configured to be placed on a frame 2. The cutting board 1 and the frame base 2 may be detachably screwed and fixed by a fixing means such as a screw.

The cutting board 1 is formed with a projecting edge 2a having an outer peripheral edge projecting from the outer peripheral portion of the frame base 2, and the lower surface of the projecting edge 2a is engraved with a groove 3 on four sides. The legs 4 of the frame base 2 located inside the protruding edge 2a are formed in a square pipe shape,
The leg foot 5 provided at the lower end of the leg 4 has a structure in which it is detachably screwed to the inner bottom of the square pipe-shaped leg 4 by an adjusting screw 6. That is, since the screw adjusting position of the leg foot 5 is located above the ground contact surface of the floor and is protected within the square pipe-shaped leg 4, it is not corroded by food drip or dirty water. On the legs 4 of the frame base 2, a rack-shaped shelf 7 is erected, and serves as a storage table for cooking utensils, cooked products, and the like.

All the sewage flowing from the cutting board is dropped and eliminated in the lower groove, so that the sewage does not accumulate in the gap of the frame and there is no growth or decay of bacteria. Also, since the products on the shelves and the legs are not touched, the adjustment screw is always kept clean and free from corrosion, and it can be rotated at all times without hindering the leg's adjustment, and the peripheral edge is projected. Because of this, the legs and feet of the worker can get inside.

[Advantage of the Invention] As described above, the present invention is a sanitary workbench including a frame base having legs at four corners and a cutting board placed on the frame base. 2 is formed so as to project from the outer peripheral portion of the protruding edge 2a, and the groove 3 is formed around the lower surface of the protruding edge 2a.
The leg 4 of the frame 2 is formed into a pipe shape, and the adjusting screw 6 is screwed to the inner bottom of the pipe leg 4 to provide the leg foot 5.

Therefore, all the sewage on the cutting board is dropped and removed from the periphery, and the sewage does not soak into the gap between the frame 2 and the stagnation of the sewage. Since the adjusting screws of the legs are always kept clean, the vertical adjustment function of the frame is not disturbed, and the protruding edge causes the movement of the worker's feet underneath, so workability is extremely high. It has good effects.
