Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sink tableware drying cabinet installed on the side of a sink of a sink.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 7, there is known a tableware drying cabinet (c) for a sink, which is installed on the side of the sink (b) of the sink (a). In this case, the sink (a) is formed by installing and fixing a counter (g) on a storage cabinet (f) having a door (d), a drawer (e), etc., and a sink (b) on the counter (g). It is provided with a faucet metal fitting (h) protruding from the counter (g) on the rear side of the sink (b), and a drain outlet (li) is provided at the bottom of the sink (b). There is. In addition, a tableware drying cabinet (c) for a sink is placed on the upper surface of the sink (b) of the counter (g) of the sink (a).

Further, the tableware drying cabinet (c) for the sink is formed as a box body which is open to the front and the side facing the sink side, and opening and closing doors (nu) are attached to the front and side openings, respectively. A door stop concave step (l) for accommodating the peripheral edges of the opening and closing doors (n) is formed at the edge of the opening. A net shelf (e) is provided in the dishware cabinet (c) for the sink, and bowls, plates, chopsticks, etc. are placed on the mesh plate (e) or on the inner bottom surface of the dishware cabinet (c) for the sink. The tableware (mosquito) is placed and stored, and the tableware (mosquito) is dried and stored by the hot air blown into the dishware drying cabinet (c) for the sink. At that time, the water flowing from the tableware (f) is drained to the outside through a drain hole (wa) formed on the inner bottom surface of the tableware drying cabinet (c) for the sink.

[0004]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional technique, the tableware drying cabinet (c) for the sink immediately after the tableware (f) washed in the sink (b) of the sink (a) remains wet. In some cases, the tableware (on the bottom surface of the door contact concave step (le) formed on the lower edge of the opening facing the sink side of the dishwasher for the sink (c) (F) Water falls from the bottom, and the water flows down from the front end of the bottom surface along the recessed step (le) on the door to the sink (b).
There was a problem that it fell down to the front of the storage cabinet (f).

The present invention has been invented to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art. That is, the problem is that the main body of the drying cabinet is opened to the front and to the side of the sink so that dishes can be taken in and out. In addition, the opening and closing door can be easily installed in the opening so that water can be prevented from dripping from the front end of the lower edge of the opening facing the sink side, and the water can flow to the sink side. It is an object of the present invention to provide a tableware drying cabinet for a sink that is well guided and removed.

[0006]

A dishware cabinet for a sink according to claim 1 of the present invention is a dishware cabinet for a sink installed on a side of a sink of a sink, and is a side facing forward and sink sides. An opening / closing door is attached to the opening of the main body of the drying cabinet that is opened to, and a door contact concave step portion for accommodating the edge of the opening / closing door is formed at the mouth edge of the opening, along the lower edge of the opening facing the sink side. A water stop convex wall is erected on the front end of the bottom surface of the recessed step portion of the door.

Therefore, since the main body of the drying cabinet has a large opening toward the front and the side facing the sink side, it is possible to easily take in and out the tableware in the main body of the drying cabinet, and further, to dry the same. Since the door contact concave step is formed at the mouth edge of the opening of the cabinet body and the edge of the opening / closing door attached to the opening is housed in the door contact concave step, the opening / closing door is closed. It fits nicely in appearance.

In this case, the dishes washed in the sink of the sink may be immediately transferred into the main body of the drying cabinet while being wet, and at that time, the lower edge of the opening facing the sink side of the main body of the drying cabinet. Water drops from the tableware on the bottom surface of the recessed stepped portion on the door. However, since a water stop convex wall is erected on the front end of the bottom surface of the door contact concave step portion formed along the lower edge of the opening facing the sink side, water is dammed on the water stop convex wall and the front The water is well guided and removed toward the sink side along the water stop convex wall without dripping.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a tableware drying cabinet for a sink in the tableware drying cabinet for a sink according to the first aspect, wherein the door stop concave step portion is formed along the lower edge of the opening facing the sink side. A feature is that a water stop convex wall is also provided upright on the rear end of the bottom surface. Therefore, in this case, in particular, the water on the bottom surface of the door-stop concave step portion is also prevented from dripping to the rear rear side in the same manner as above.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a dishware drying cabinet for a sink in the dishware drying cabinet for sinks according to the first or second aspect, wherein a water stop convex wall is hung down to a side surface of the drying cabinet body facing the sink side. It is characterized by being set up. Therefore, in this case, in particular, the water that has flowed down from the bottom surface of the door-stop concave step portion to the sink side is reliably guided and removed toward the sink side without dropping in the front-rear direction.

The tableware drying cabinet for a sink according to claim 4 of the present invention is the tableware drying cabinet for a sink according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein the opening / closing door is located in the middle of the opening toward the sink. Is divided into front and rear to form a front door and a flat rear door that are bent in a substantially L shape in plan view, and the front side edge of the front door and the rear end edge of the rear door are pivotally attached to the rim of the opening, respectively. It is characterized by having done. Therefore, in this case, in particular, it is possible to open and close the front door and the rear door individually to more easily move the dishes in and out of the drying cabinet main body, and at that time, the front door is omitted in plan view. Since it is formed in a large shape so as to cover the corner portion of the L-shaped curved drying cabinet main body, it is convenient for loading and unloading tableware from a diagonally front side of the sink.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a tableware drying cabinet for a sink in the tableware drying cabinet for a sink according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein a side surface of the drying cabinet body facing the sink side is provided. A recess that is long in the front-rear direction is formed below the opening, and a packing material is accommodated and fixed in the recess, and a side end of a counter having a sink is brought into contact with the packing material. . Therefore, in this case, in particular, the gap between the drying cabinet main body and the counter having the sink is sealed by the packing material to prevent water from entering the gap, so that the water flowing toward the sink side is more reliable. Guided to be removed.
