Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an improvement of a residue storage basket that can be detachably fitted into a drain hole of a sink.

Conventionally, the body of this type of storage basket was constructed of a net or a perforated plate, so residues such as used tea leaves clogged the perforations, reducing drainage or water drainage during use. ,
After discarding the residue inside, the large number of used tea leaves that remain on the inside of the basket are difficult to fall off even with water flow, so cleaning them requires considerable effort, as sometimes the main body must be hit to shake them off. Not only is this necessary, but it often causes inconveniences such as deformation or damage to the main body.

In view of these circumstances, the present invention eliminates the above-mentioned disadvantages at once by making the through-holes of the main body of the basket protrude inward by a certain amount alternately, and by providing an appropriate gap between the main body and the residue that covers the through-holes. It was solved.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be described in more detail based on the embodiment shown in the drawings. 1 is a main body of a storage basket that can be removably fitted into the drain hole of a kitchen sink, and 2 is a storage basket with a large number of through holes 3. The through hole 3 has a hole wall 3 projecting inward.
4 is a cap provided at the upper end of the body, and 5 is a bottom plate having a suitable drainage hole 5'.

Further, the through hole 3 in the body is not limited to the round hole shown in the embodiment, but may be one in which elongated holes are arranged in parallel or in a herringbone pattern. There is no problem even if it is something outstanding.

In the figure, 6 indicates a joint portion which is closed by folding both edges of the perforated plate forming the body 2, and 7 indicates a handle attached to the base 4 portion.

The residue storage basket of the present invention according to the above structure has through-holes 3 penetrated through a large number of hole walls 3' that protrude, for example, by about 0.57rrfn, on the inner or outer surfaces of the body 2. , the unevenness on the inner surface of the body formed by the hole wall 3' is
By creating an appropriate gap between the leftover tea leaves and the like that cover the through hole 3, it not only facilitates the flow of the used tea leaves, etc., but also allows the used tea leaves to adhere to the through hole 3 and temporarily block it. Even if something happens, the next moment, the water flowing down along the inner surface of the body will move and peel it off, maintaining its drainage function well, and at the same time preventing the collected residue from adhering to the inner surface of the body. Therefore, it is easy to dispose of the residue, and even if some used tea leaves stick or remain inside the main body, they can be easily peeled off with a stream of water, making it easy to dispose of the residue that occurs in the kitchen and after use. This greatly simplifies the effort required to clean the storage basket.

Furthermore, in the present storage basket, the large number of hole walls 3' serve as reinforcing ribs for the body 2, so that, for example, the conventional storage basket is 0.511r! n
The body was made of a perforated plate with a thickness of 0.3 m or more.
It is extremely economical, as it can be replaced with a m-thick perforated plate.

Furthermore, by making the through holes 3 long holes, the porosity can be increased without reducing the shape retention strength of this portion, and the drainage effect etc. can be further enhanced.

As mentioned above, according to the residue storage basket of the present invention, drainage during its use is extremely good, while disposal of residue and cleaning of the main body of the basket are significantly simplified, and the shape retention strength of the main body 1 of the basket is improved. It has excellent practical effects that could not be expected from conventional storage baskets of this type, such as a large increase in size.
