Benefits of technology

The present invention is a sink device that has the ability to clean itself using water. The device has many water holes on the upper edge of the sink surface, which allows the water to flow and impact the surface, making it difficult for stains to accumulate. This self-cleaning feature makes it easier to maintain cleanliness, saves time and effort, and provides a better sanitary environment.

Problems solved by technology

With the day by day use, however, the sink is contaminated by all kinds of stains such as limescale, soap scum, toothpaste.
Moreover, after the long-term contamination of these stains, it would have unpleasant smell, not only making us feel uncomfortable while using the sink, but also reducing the environmental quality of our life.
In consideration of the matter that a sink is mostly made of the ceramic materials, and the sink surface is glazed for protection, therefore, when the sink surface is being brushed for removing the stains, the glaze might fall off the sink surface, and cracks would appear easily on the surface of ceramics without the protection of glaze, causing danger when using the sink and shortening the life expectancy of the sink.

first embodiment

[0023]Please refer to FIGS. 1-3. In the first embodiment, the present invention provides a sink device 100 which comprises: a sink 1 including a sink surface 11 and a drainage hole 12, which is disposed on the sink surface 11 and is communicated with a drain pipe 13. The upper edge of the sink surface 11 of the sink 1 is annularly provided with a plurality of water holes 14, which are connected to a water supplying means S. The sink device 100 includes a faucet means 2, which is disposed on the sink 1 and comprises a faucet body 21. The faucet body 21 is provided with a washing outlet 22. In the present embodiment, the washing outlet 22 of the faucet body 21 is communicated with the water supplying means S, i.e., the water source of the faucet body 21 and the plurality of water holes 14 come from the water supplying means S. In other embodiments, the washing outlet 22 of the faucet body 21 can communicate with other water supplying means, so the water source of the faucet body 21 an...

second embodiment

[0028]The sink device 100a of the second embodiment further comprises a status-detecting means 8, which is disposed in the drain pipe 13 and is electrically connected with the water supplying means S. The status-detecting means 8 includes a valve 81 and a flow detector 82 connected electrically with the valve 81, in which the status-detecting means 8 generates usage status information according to an on-off state of the valve 81 and a flow detecting status of the flow detector 82, enabling the water supplying means S to be in the state of turning on or turning off. Namely, the status-detecting means 8 is for detecting the present usage status of the sink device 100a. For example, when someone is using the sink device 100a to wash face, the valve 81 is closed to retain water, and then the valve 81 is opened when the face washing done. At this moment, the water current would flow by the flow detector 82, which is disposed inside the drain pipe 13. When the water runs out, the status-d...
