Specific embodiments
[0026] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and in combination with the accompanying drawings, the technical solutions of the present invention will be further described, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0027] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship and movement conditions between components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.
[0028] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, a water tank includes:
[0029] A tank body 100, on which there is a cavity 101 with an opening at the upper end;
[0030] A water retaining part 200, which is arranged on the outer wall of the tank body 100, and the water retaining part 200 is arranged around the opening of the tank body 100, and the water retaining part 200 is used to connect with the tabletop. In the vertical direction, the upper end of the water retaining part 200 is higher than the upper end opening of the tank body 100;
[0031] A first step 102, which is arranged on the inner tank wall of the tank body 100;
[0032] A second step 103, which is also arranged on the inner tank wall of the tank body 100, and the first step 102 is located below the second step 103.
[0033] In this embodiment, the water retaining part 200 is located on the outer wall of the tank body 100 and is arranged around the opening of the tank body 100, and is used to block the space inside the tank body 100 from the tabletop. Then, when washing food or other items in the water tank, the water retaining part 200 can block the splashing water stains so that they will not splash onto the tabletop, and there is no need to perform additional cleaning on the tabletop later; the setting of the second step 103 and the first step 102 enables multiple different kitchen utensils such as a cutting board and a draining basket to be placed on the water tank at the same time. For example, when the cutting board is placed on the second step 103 and the draining basket is placed out of position on the first step 102, the cut vegetables on the cutting board can be directly swept into the draining basket, improving the user experience.
[0034] It is worth mentioning that the tabletop refers to the upper surface of the table board.
[0035] Specifically, both the first step 102 and the second step 103 include linear steps symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the groove body 100. After both ends of kitchen utensils such as a cutting board or a draining basket are placed on the linear steps, the stability of the cutting board and other kitchen utensils can be maintained.
[0036] Preferably, the water blocking part 200 includes a water blocking plate 201, and the water blocking plate 201 is integrally arranged at the outer edge of the second step 103. When the groove body 100 is placed on a tabletop, the water blocking plate 201 is used to abut against the tabletop.
[0037] More preferably, the first end of the water blocking plate 201 is fixed to the second step 103, and a connecting plate 202 is arranged at the second end of the water blocking plate 201, and the connecting plate 202 is used to be fixed to the tabletop.
[0038] In this embodiment, when the water sink is fixed, the water blocking plate 201 is in the vertical direction, the connecting plate 202 and the water blocking plate 201 are perpendicular to each other and integrally formed. The horizontally arranged connecting plate 202 can increase the contact area with the tabletop and thus increase the connection stability between the water sink and the tabletop.
[0039] More preferably, an installation space is formed between the first end and the second end of the connecting plate 202, and both the first step 102 and the second step 103 are located in the installation space.
[0040] Specifically, the first step 102 is located at the upper edge of the opening of the groove body 100, the second step 103 is located above the first step 102, a surrounding plate 107 is arranged at the upper end of the second step 103, and the water blocking plate 201 is formed by bending downward from the surrounding plate 107.
[0041] In this embodiment, the first step 102 and the second step 103 are arranged on the opening edge of the water sink. The setting of the water blocking part 200 can not only block the splashing of water stains, but also raise the first step 102 and the second step 103 by arranging them in the installation space in the vertical direction (the height h of the installation space) formed between the first end and the second end of the connecting plate 202, which is convenient for users to operate, and the raised first step 102 and second step 103 do not occupy the use space inside the water sink.
[0042] Specifically, the groove body 100 includes two straight plate walls 104 and arc plate walls 105. The two straight plate walls 104 are symmetrically arranged, and the two arc plate walls 105 are respectively located at both ends of the straight plate walls 104, and the end of each straight plate wall 104 is fixed to the corresponding arc plate wall 105.
[0043] In this embodiment, compared with the existing rectangular trough 100, the two ends of the trough 100 are set to be arc-shaped, so that the arc-shaped transition gradually occurs between the straight plate wall 104 and the arc plate wall 105 of the trough 100, and there will be no dead corners on the inner wall of the trough 100, which is convenient for cleaning; and on the premise of the same side length distance, the area of a circle is the largest. Therefore, the setting of the arc-shaped wall enables the trough 100 to increase the usable area of the water tank without occupying too much tabletop area.
[0044] Further preferably, a straight step is provided on the straight plate wall 104, and two arc-shaped steps 106 are provided on each arc plate wall 105. Each arc-shaped step 106 is connected to the straight step in the corresponding first step 102 and second step 103 to form an annular step.
[0045] In this embodiment, the straight step can support some square draining baskets or cutting boards, and the existence of the arc-shaped steps 106 on the arc-shaped wall can support some arc-shaped cutting boards, making use of the space of the arc-shaped wall.
[0046] Specifically, an adhesive layer is provided on the connecting plate 202, and the adhesive layer is used for bonding and fixing with the tabletop.
[0047] Further preferably, a mounting plate 203 is provided at the position of the connecting plate 202 on the straight plate wall 104, and mounting holes 204 are provided on the mounting plate 203.
[0048] In this embodiment, the adhesive can bond and fix the tabletop and the connecting plate 202. However, in order to further strengthen the connection between the tabletop and the trough 100, a vertical mounting plate 203 is provided on the connecting plate 202 on the straight plate wall 104, that is, the mounting plate 203 is provided in the straight line direction. Mounting holes 204 are provided on the mounting plate 203. Screws pass through the table board and are screwed into the mounting holes 204 to fix the water tank on the table board for connection strengthening.
