[0057] This embodiment discloses a drying water tank, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drying sink can accommodate the dish basket assembly 200 and dry the dish basket assembly 200 with good drying effect and high drying efficiency. The drying sink includes a sink body 100, a dish basket assembly 200, and a drying assembly 300. The dish basket assembly 200 and the drying assembly 300 are both mounted in the sink body 100. The drying assembly 300 can blow hot air into the dish basket assembly 200 to dry the dishes in the dish basket assembly 200.
[0058] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the sink body 100 has a mounting slot 101, into which the bowl basket assembly 200 is removably mounted. The bowl basket assembly 200 defines a drying chamber, and the bottom of the bowl basket assembly 200 has air outlets 20111. The drying assembly 300 is disposed within the sink body 100 and communicates with the drying chamber to deliver hot air. The sink body 100 also has a control screen for displaying drying parameters and providing user operations.
[0059] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the bowl basket assembly 200 disclosed in this embodiment includes a lower housing 201, a drain rack 203, and an upper housing 202. The drain rack 203 is disposed within the lower housing 201. The upper housing 202 has a sealing cover disposed on the top of the lower housing 201. The upper and lower housings 202 and 201 together form a drying chamber. The top surface of the upper housing 202 is provided with a relief portion 20212. The relief portion 20212 has a highest point lower than the top surface of the upper housing 202. The relief portion 20212 is a transparent or translucent structure and faces the control panel 103. When the bowl basket assembly 200 of this structure is installed in the sink body 100, the user can easily see the control panel 103 through the relief portion 20212 on the upper housing 202, understand the drying parameters, and adjust the drying parameters on the control panel 103, thereby improving the user experience.
[0060] Generally speaking, the control panel 103 on the sink body 100 is positioned directly facing the user. That is, when a user stands in front of the drying sink, their line of sight is directly aligned with the control panel 103. Therefore, the relief portion 20212 on the bowl basket assembly 200 is positioned at the rear end of the upper housing 202, that is, at the end of the upper housing 202 away from the user. It should be noted that the "front" and "rear" directions defined herein refer to the directions in which the drying sink is used. The "front side" of the drying sink can be understood as the side closest to the user, and the "rear side" of the drying sink can be understood as the side away from the user.
[0061] Specifically, the upper box body 202 includes an upper box body 2021, which includes a box body portion 20211 and a relief portion 20212 disposed at one end of the box body portion 20211. The highest point of the relief portion 20212 is lower than the top surface of the box body portion 20211. This structural arrangement prevents the bowl basket assembly 200 from obstructing the user's view when installed in the sink, allowing the user to see the control screen 103 through the relief portion 20212.
[0062] Generally, the highest point of the bowl basket assembly 200 is higher than the highest point of the sink body 100, that is, the top surface of the upper box body 202 is higher than the top surface of the sink body 100. Therefore, when the bowl basket assembly 200 is installed in the sink body 100, the top surface of the upper box body 202 of the bowl basket assembly 200 is located between the user and the control screen 103, which will block the user's line of sight and affect the user's observation of the control screen 103. Therefore, in this embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the top surface of the box body 20211 is a horizontally disposed plane, and the top surface of the avoidance portion 20212 includes a first top surface 202121 and a second top surface 202122 connected thereto. The first top surface 202121 is an inclined surface slanting downward away from the box body 20211. The first top surface 202121 and the second top surface 202122 are arranged at an angle, and the angle ranges from greater than 90° to less than or equal to 180°. Because the first top surface 202121 is a downwardly inclined surface, the user's line of sight is not blocked by the first top surface 202121, and the user can directly see the control screen 103.
[0063] Under the above structure, when the angle between the first top surface 202121 and the second top surface 202122 is greater than 90° and less than 180°, that is, when the angle between the first top surface 202121 and the second top surface 202122 is an obtuse angle, the shape of the upper box body 202 is more beautiful and fashionable. The smooth transition between the first top surface 202121 and the second top surface 202122 improves the appearance and aesthetics, while preventing sharp edges from scratching people's hands and facilitating processing and manufacturing. When the angle between the first top surface 202121 and the second top surface 202122 is equal to 180°, that is, the first top surface 202121 and the second top surface 202122 are coplanar, that is, the top surface of the avoidance portion 20212 is an inclined surface that is tilted downward in a direction away from the box body 20211. The structure of the upper box body 2021 is simple and relatively easy to manufacture.
[0064] Alternatively, as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, one of the lower box body 201 and the upper box body 202 is provided with a retaining ring structure, and the other is provided with an annular protrusion structure 2024. When the upper box body 202 is placed on the lower box body 201, the protrusion structure 2024 is located inside the retaining ring structure. The cooperation between the retaining ring structure and the protrusion structure 2024 can, on the one hand, prevent the gas in the drying chamber from leaking from the connection between the upper box body 202 and the lower box body 201, thereby providing a seal and ensuring the drying effect. On the other hand, it can also limit the assembly of the upper box body 202 and the lower box body 201, preventing the upper box body 202 and the lower box body 201 from misalignment. In addition, this structure also has a certain waterproof effect, preventing external water from entering the drying chamber through the connection between the upper box body 202 and the lower box body 201.
[0065] In this embodiment, the lower box body 201 includes a lower box body 2011 and a lower box edge 2012 arranged on the circumference of the lower box body 2011, the bottom of the lower box body 2011 is provided with an air outlet 20111, and a lower box stop edge 2013 is provided on the outer side of the lower box edge 2012. The top surface of the lower box stop edge 2013 is higher than the lower box edge 2012 to form a retaining ring structure; the upper box body 202 also includes an upper box edge 2022 arranged on the circumference of the upper box body 2021, and an upper box stop edge 2023 is provided on the outer side of the upper box edge 2022. The upper box edge 2022 can be supported on the lower box stop edge 2013, and a protruding structure 2024 is provided on the side of the upper box edge 2022 facing the lower box body 201. When the upper box body 202 is covered on the lower box body 201, the protruding structure 2024 is located on the inner side of the lower box stop edge 2013. The above structure is simple and easy to process and manufacture.
[0066] In order to improve the appearance of the bowl-basket assembly 2, the outer diameter of the upper box stop edge 2023 is the same as the outer diameter of the lower box stop edge 2013, so that the integrity of the bowl-basket assembly 2 is better.
[0067] Alternatively, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer wall of the upper box body 2021 is provided with an anti-slip portion 20213. The anti-slip portion 20213 increases the friction between the hand and the upper box body 2021, preventing slipping between the hand and the upper box body 202. This reduces the occurrence of users failing to open the upper box body 202 due to slipping, and also facilitates the user's movement of the upper box body 202. Optionally, the anti-slip portion 20213 may be, but is not limited to, a grid-like or wavy raised structure.
[0068] In this embodiment, if Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the drying assembly 300 is provided with an air guide 400 at its outlet. The air guide 400 is connected to the lower housing 201 and is used to deliver hot air to the drying chamber. The air guide 400 extends downwardly and obliquely from the sink body 100 toward the lower housing 201. Because the drain rack 203 is located within the lower housing 201, the air guide 400's connection with the lower housing 201 allows the hot air to be blown directly onto the tableware on the drain rack 203, improving drying efficiency. The air guide 400 ensures that the hot air generated by the drying assembly 300 is delivered into the drying chamber along a predetermined direction to dry the tableware.
[0069] Under the above structure, the hot air from the drying assembly 300 flows obliquely downward into the drying chamber through the air guide portion 400. This process realizes the primary drying of the tableware and kitchenware in the drying chamber. Then the hot air rises and then sinks. This process realizes the secondary drying of the tableware and kitchenware in the drying chamber, with good drying effect and high drying efficiency. The moist and cold air that drops to the bottom is discharged from the air outlet 20111 at the bottom of the bowl basket assembly 200, thereby accelerating the gas flow rate in the drying chamber, accelerating the drying speed, and helping to further improve the drying efficiency. The combination of the above structures can ensure that the drying chamber and the tableware and kitchenware in the drying chamber remain clean and fresh, which is conducive to creating a healthy kitchen and thus improving the user experience.
[0070] In this embodiment, the side wall of the water tank body 100 is provided with an air outlet, the air outlet end of the drying assembly 300 is connected to the air outlet, and the air guide portion 400 is detachably connected to the side wall of the water tank body 100 at the air outlet. Figure 3 As shown, the sidewall of the lower housing 201 is provided with an air inlet 20112, which is capable of docking and communicating with the air guide 400. When installing the basket assembly 200 into the sink body 100, simply aligning the air inlet 20112 on the basket assembly 200 with the air guide 400 connects the air guide 400 to the drying chamber of the basket assembly 200, making installation simple and convenient.
[0071] Alternatively, as Figure 10 As shown, the air guide portion 400 includes a housing 401 and a partition 402. The housing 401 is detachably connected to the sidewalls of the sink body 100. The top and bottom walls of the housing 401 extend obliquely downward from the sink body 100 toward the basket assembly 200. The housing 401 is provided with an air guide opening 4011. The partition 402 is vertically disposed within the air guide opening 4011. There is at least one partition 402. When there are two or more partitions 402, all partitions 402 are evenly spaced along the length of the air guide opening 4011. The partitions 402 provided in the air guide opening 4011 rectify the hot air, ensuring that it is evenly blown toward the drying chamber while also reducing noise. In this embodiment, at least two partitions 402 are provided; the specific number can be determined based on actual conditions.
[0072] The opening area of the air inlet 20112 is not less than the opening area of the air guide 4011. This structure can ensure that the wind energy guided by the air guide 4011 can all enter the drying chamber of the bowl basket assembly 200, avoiding the loss of hot air and energy waste, while ensuring the drying effect.
[0073] In this embodiment, the bottom of the lower box 201 is provided with multiple air outlet holes 20111, and the bottom of the sink body 100 is provided with a drainage hole. The drying chamber is connected to the drainage hole through the multiple air outlet holes 20111, that is, the air outlet holes 20111 also serve as drain holes. In this embodiment, the entire bottom plate of the lower box 201 is provided with air outlet holes 20111, so that water dripping from the tableware can flow into the sink body 100 in a timely manner. At the same time, during the drying process, the presence of the air outlet holes 20111 and the drainage hole allows air circulation between the drying chamber and the outside world, improving drying efficiency.
[0074] A drainage hole is located at the lowest point of the water tank body 100, allowing water generated during the drying process to flow through the air outlet 20111 and the drainage hole at the bottom of the lower box body 201, and then into the sewer pipe. Simultaneously, the drainage hole allows the drying chamber to communicate with the outside through the air outlet 20111. As hot air continuously flows into the drying chamber, moist air within the drying chamber can be discharged through the air outlet 20111 and the drainage hole, thereby circulating the air within the drying chamber and accelerating the drying process. In other words, the air outlet 20111 and the drainage hole both serve as drainage and exhaust.
[0075] Furthermore, a certain distance is maintained between the bottom of the lower box body 201 and the inner bottom wall of the water tank body 100, so that there is a certain space below the lower box body 201 for the circulation of drying airflow, thereby further improving the drying efficiency.
[0076] In this embodiment, the upper body 202 has a receiving groove that opens toward the lower body 201 to expand the area where hot air rises and improve drying efficiency. Generally speaking, because the drain rack 203 is located within the lower body 201, the volume of the lower body 201 is larger than that of the upper body 202. In other words, the volume of the receiving groove of the lower body 201 is larger than that of the upper body 202.
[0077] In this embodiment, if Figures 11 to 13As shown, the upper box body 202 is detachably connected to the lower box body 201, allowing the upper box body 202 to be removed from the lower box body 201. When the upper box body 202 is inverted, the opening of the receiving groove faces upward. The upper box body 202 not only seals the lower box body 201, but also stores water in its receiving groove for functions such as soaking and washing, thereby meeting the user's different usage needs. The lower box body 201 not only accommodates the drain rack 203, but also performs independent washing and draining functions. Compared with the existing technology, there is no need to prepare a separate washing basin when washing vegetables and dishes, making it more convenient to use.
[0078] In this embodiment, the bowl basket assembly 200 is detachably mounted in the mounting groove 101. When the tableware and kitchenware in the bowl basket assembly 200 need to be dried, the bowl basket assembly 200 is installed in the mounting groove 101. When drying is no longer required or after drying is completed, the bowl basket assembly 200 can be removed from the mounting groove 101, thereby increasing the cleaning space.
[0079] The sink body 100 has two opposing inner sidewalls each with a ridge 102 extending along the length of the sink body 100. The lower basket edge 2012 can rest on the ridges 102, and when the upper basket 202 is inverted, the upper basket edge 2022 can rest on the ridges 102. The ridges 102 facilitate the installation of the bowl basket assembly 200 within the sink body 100. The ridges 102 are preferably long enough to support both the upper basket 202 and the lower basket 201. When both the upper basket 202 and the lower basket 201 are supported on the ridges 102, items can be washed in the upper basket 202 and then placed in the lower basket 201 for draining.
[0080] Alternatively, as Figure 7 As shown, the bottom surface of the lower box stop 2013 is lower than the bottom surface of the lower box edge 2012. This structural arrangement allows the lower box stop 2013 to protrude downward from the lower box edge 2012, so that when the user moves the lower box body 201, the lower box edge 2012 can stop the user's fingers, making it easier for the fingers to apply force and thus facilitate moving the lower box body 201. On the other hand, the lower box stop 2013 is supported on the ridge 102. Compared with the surface contact of the lower box edge 2012 supported on the ridge 102, the contact area is smaller and can promote drainage, which can effectively reduce the adsorption problem caused by surface contact, thereby making it more convenient and quick to move the lower box body 201.
[0081] Further optionally, the top surface of the upper box stop 2023 is higher than the top surface of the upper box edge 2022. With this structural arrangement, when the water storage function of the upper box body 202 is required, on the one hand, the upper box stop 2023 protrudes from the upper box edge 2022, so that the user can use the upper box edge 2022 to stop the fingers when moving the upper box body 202, making it easier for the fingers to apply force, thereby facilitating the movement of the upper box body 202; on the other hand, the upper box stop 2023 is supported on the ridge 102. Compared with the surface contact of the upper box edge 2022 supported on the ridge 102, the contact area is smaller and can promote drainage, which can effectively reduce the adsorption problem caused by surface contact, thereby making it more convenient and quick to move the upper box body 202.
[0082] Since the bowl basket assembly 200 is detachably connected to the sink body 100, the upper box body 202 of the bowl basket assembly 200 has water storage and cleaning functions, and the upper box body 202 and the lower box body 201 of the bowl basket assembly 200 can be supported on the sink body 100 for use, the mounting groove 101 in this embodiment can be made into a large through groove with equal depth. Compared with the prior art that requires the provision of washing and drying areas with different groove depths, the cleaning space of the drying sink can be flexibly adjusted according to needs. After the bowl basket assembly 200 is removed, the mounting groove 101 can accommodate more and larger tableware and kitchen utensils, thereby meeting the different usage needs of users.
