Detailed Implementation
[0044] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0045] Combination Figure 1 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the integrated sink 100 includes a sink assembly 10 and a head assembly 20. The sink assembly 10 has a cleaning space 11, which can be used to clean items. The head assembly 20 is arranged in a vertical direction, and its lower end is connected to the sink assembly 10 and located on the rear side of the cleaning space 11.
[0046] Combination Figure 2 The integrated sink 100 also includes a lighting component 30, which is installed on the head assembly 20. The lighting component 30 can provide lighting for the cleaning space 11, making it convenient for users to see the items in the cleaning space 11. By placing the lighting component 30 on the head assembly 20, the integration level of the integrated sink 100 is improved.
[0047] Combination Figure 1 The integrated sink 100 also includes a faucet assembly 40, which is connected to the head assembly 20 and is positioned vertically opposite the cleaning space 11. Specifically, the faucet assembly 40 can be configured to dispense water into the cleaning space 11, and its installation is facilitated by connecting it to the head assembly 20.
[0048] In related technologies, kitchen faucets are typically installed on the countertop of the sink and secured with nuts at the bottom of the countertop. During installation, the faucet is aligned with the mounting hole on the top of the countertop, and the mounting bracket and threaded pipe are tightened from below the countertop. Disassembly also requires removal from below the countertop, making faucet installation and removal inconvenient. The integrated sink 100 of this embodiment connects the faucet assembly 40 to the head assembly 20. The faucet assembly 40 is connected above the sink assembly 10, providing ample operating space above the sink assembly 10 for convenient installation of the faucet assembly 40. Connecting the faucet assembly 40 to the head assembly 20 also enhances the integration level of the integrated sink 100.
[0049] Combination Figure 1 The integrated sink 100 also includes a drying component 50, which is used to dry kitchen utensils and is located on the head assembly 20. For example, the drying component 50 can be used to dry kitchen utensils such as knives and cutting boards. It is understood that after using knives and cutting boards, users will use the sink assembly 10 to clean them. Usually, there will be residual moisture on the surface of the kitchen utensils. By setting the drying component 50 in the integrated sink 100, users can conveniently store knives, cutting boards and other kitchen utensils and dry them, improving the convenience of use and preventing bacteria from growing on the surface of the kitchen utensils due to residual moisture.
[0050] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the integrated sink 100 integrates the lighting component 30, the faucet component 40 and the drying component 50 into the head component 20, thereby enriching the functions of the integrated sink 100, improving the integration level of the integrated sink 100, improving the space utilization rate, and improving the convenience of the user in using the sink.
[0051] Combination Figure 18 In some embodiments of this utility model, the head assembly 20 includes a head body 21 and a mounting base 22. The head body 21 extends vertically, and its lower end is connected to the sink assembly 10. The mounting base 22 is located at the upper end of the head body 21 and is vertically opposite to the sink assembly 10. Specifically, the lower end of the head body 21 is connected to the sink assembly 10 and extends upward above the horizontal plane of the sink assembly 10. The mounting base 22 is connected to the upper end of the head body 21, meaning that the mounting base 22 is located above the sink assembly 10, and the head body 21 provides support for the mounting base 22. A lighting component 30 is located on the mounting base 22, facilitating the lighting of the sink assembly 10 from top to bottom. A faucet assembly 40 is connected to the mounting base 22, allowing the faucet assembly 40 to be installed above the sink assembly 10. It can be understood that there is a large operating space above the sink assembly 10, which facilitates the installation of the faucet assembly 40 and improves installation efficiency.
[0052] Combination Figure 2 In some embodiments of this invention, the optical axis 30a of the lighting component 30 is configured to extend vertically and tilt forward in a downward direction, opposite to the central region of the cleaning space 11 in a front-to-back direction. The tilt of the optical axis 30a of the lighting component 30 towards the cleaning space 11 in a downward direction improves the area illuminated by the lighting component 30, covering areas of the sink assembly 10 that are used frequently, thus enhancing the lighting effect on the cleaning space 11.
[0053] In this context, the optical axis 30a of the lighting component 30 refers to the center line of the light beam emitted by the lighting component 30. For example, the lighting component 30 can be composed of one or more point light sources. When the lighting component 30 includes multiple point light sources, the optical axes 30a of these multiple point light sources can be parallel and inclined downwards towards the cleaning space 11. That is, the light beams emitted by the multiple point light sources are all directed downwards towards the cleaning space 11. Alternatively, the lighting component 30 can be composed of a surface light source, and the optical axis 30a of the lighting component 30 can be parallel to the normal to the light-emitting surface 31a of the lighting component 30. The optical axis 30a of the lighting component 30 is inclined downwards towards the sink assembly 10, which helps to improve the propagation direction of the light from the lighting component 30, ensuring that the light is effectively utilized and that the sink assembly 10 is effectively illuminated.
[0054] In related technologies, the optical axis 30a of the lighting lamp 31 extends in the vertical direction, so that the illumination range of the lighting lamp 31 is close to the edge of the water tank, while the area of the water tank that is actually used more frequently cannot be effectively illuminated, resulting in a waste of light.
[0055] The optical axis 30a of the lighting component 30 is tilted forward in a downward direction and is opposite to the central region of the cleaning space 11 in the front-back direction. This can be achieved in different ways. For example, the mounting position of the lighting component 30 can be tilted so that the normal of the light-emitting surface 31a of the lighting component 30 is tilted towards the cleaning space 11 in a downward direction; or, the head assembly 20 can extend in a vertical direction, and the lighting component 30 can be mounted on the mounting base 22 above the head assembly 20. The mounting base 22 can be tilted so that the optical axis 30a of the lighting component 30 is tilted towards the cleaning space 11.
[0056] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In some embodiments of this utility model, the head assembly 20 includes a mounting base 22, which is located above and behind the cleaning space 11. The lighting assembly 30 is disposed within the mounting base 22. The mounting base 22 has a first mounting opening 221 opposite to the lighting assembly 30, which is inclined downwards towards the cleaning space 11. Specifically, the lighting assembly 30 is disposed within the mounting base 22, which protects the lighting assembly 30 and provides a stable working environment. The lighting assembly 30 emits a light beam into the cleaning space 11 through the first mounting opening 221. Furthermore, in conjunction with the foregoing, the optical axis 30a of the lighting assembly 30 is configured to be inclined downwards towards the cleaning space 11, and the axis of the first mounting opening 221 is also inclined downwards towards the cleaning space 11, facilitating the propagation of light from the lighting assembly 30 into the cleaning space 11, ensuring effective utilization of the light, and improving the lighting effect of the sink assembly 10.
[0057] The mounting base 22 is located at the rear upper part of the cleaning space 11. For example, the mounting base 22 can be supported at the rear upper part of the cleaning space 11 by setting a support plate. Alternatively, the head assembly 20 may also include a head body 21, which extends vertically. The lower part of the head body 21 is connected to the sink assembly 10. The mounting base 22 is located at the upper part of the head body 21. The head body 21 can provide support for the mounting base 22, thereby improving the structural stability of the mounting base 22. The mounting base 22 can be opposite the sink assembly 10 vertically. The lighting component 30 is located on the mounting base 22, which allows the lighting component 30 to illuminate the sink assembly 10 from top to bottom and avoids the light from the lighting component 30 affecting the user.
[0058] Optionally, the lighting assembly 30 includes a lamp 31, with its optical axis 30a parallel to the normal of the light-emitting surface 31a of the lamp 31. Specifically, the lamp 31 is a surface light source, capable of providing more uniform illumination to the sink assembly 10. The light-emitting surface 31a of the lamp 31 is the surface from which the light from the lamp 31 is emitted, and the normal of the light-emitting surface 31a is a straight line perpendicular to it. The optical axis 30a of the lighting assembly 30 is parallel to the normal of the light-emitting surface 31a of the lamp 31. That is, the normal of the light-emitting surface 31a of the lamp 31 extends vertically and is inclined downwards towards the washing space 11, improving the propagation direction of the light from the lamp 31, ensuring effective light utilization, and effectively illuminating the sink assembly 10. For example, the lamp 31 may be an LED lamp.
[0059] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 5Optionally, the lighting assembly 30 includes a lamp 31 and a first bracket 32. The lamp 31 is connected to the first bracket 32, and the first bracket 32 is detachably connected to the head assembly 20. The first bracket 32 provides support for the lamp 31, improving its structural stability. The detachable connection of the first bracket 32 to the head assembly 20 facilitates the installation and maintenance of the lamp 31. For example, the lamp 31 can be fixed to the first bracket 32 by adhesive, clips, or screws.
[0060] Combination Figure 5 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first bracket 32 is provided with a third mounting port 321, and the lighting lamp 31 is provided with a spring clip 311. The lighting lamp 31 passes through the third mounting port 321, and the spring clip 311 is used to lock and unlock the lighting lamp 31. Specifically, when installing the lighting lamp 31 onto the first bracket 32, the spring clip 311 can be squeezed so that the lighting lamp 31 passes through the third mounting port 321. After the lighting lamp 31 is installed in place, the spring clip 311 is released, and the spring clip 311 can lock the lighting lamp 31 onto the first bracket 32. When it is necessary to remove the lighting lamp 31, the spring clip 311 can be pressed, and the spring clip 311 releases the locking of the lighting lamp 31, so that the lighting lamp 31 can be removed from the first bracket 32, improving the efficiency of the installation and removal of the lighting lamp 31 and facilitating the replacement and maintenance of the lighting lamp 31.
[0061] For example, the lighting lamp 31 may be provided with two spring clips 311 in the length direction, so as to securely lock the lighting lamp 31 through the spring clips 311. In addition, the spring clips 311 may include a first latch and a second latch arranged opposite to each other in the width direction of the lighting lamp 31. When installing or removing the lighting lamp 31, the first latch and the second latch are adapted to come closer to each other, so as to facilitate the removal and installation of the lighting lamp 31.
[0062] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 7 Optionally, in some embodiments of the present invention, the head assembly 20 includes a mounting base 22 and a cover plate 24. The mounting base 22 includes a first mounting cavity 222 with an opening at the top. The lighting assembly 30 is adapted to be installed into the first mounting cavity 222 from the opening. The cover plate 24 covers the opening. The first mounting cavity 222 can protect the lighting assembly 30 and provide a stable working environment for the lighting assembly 30. When it is necessary to repair or replace the lighting assembly 30, the cover plate 24 can be opened and the lighting assembly 30 can be taken out from the first mounting cavity 222, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the lighting assembly 30.
[0063] Combination Figure 7The first bracket 32 includes a first end 32a and a second end 32b opposite to each other. The mounting base 22 has a first positioning part and a second positioning part opposite to each other. The first positioning part is provided with a positioning groove with an opening facing the second positioning part. The first end 32a of the first bracket 32 is inserted into the positioning groove, and the second end 32b is connected to the second positioning part. By setting the first positioning part and the second positioning part to cooperate, the mounting base 22 can stably fix the first bracket 32, improve the structural stability of the first bracket 32, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the lamp body and improving the working stability of the lighting assembly 30.
[0064] The second end 32b can be stacked and connected with the second positioning part. The surface-to-surface fit between the second end 32b and the second positioning part improves the stability of the fit between the first bracket 32 and the mounting base 22. In specific installation, the first end 32a of the first bracket 32 can be inserted into the positioning groove first, and then the second end 32b can be positioned in the second positioning part.
[0065] Additionally, the second end portion 32b and the second positioning portion can be locked by a locking member. For example, the mounting base 22 further includes a locking member configured to lock the second end portion 32b and the second positioning portion in the front-rear direction. Since the front of the head assembly 20 faces the user, the locking member can be easily removed from the front of the head assembly 20 when disassembling the lighting assembly 30, allowing the first bracket 32 to be removed from the mounting base 22. This facilitates the installation and removal of the lighting assembly 30 and improves maintenance convenience.
[0066] Combination Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the bottom surface of the mounting base 22 is provided with a first mounting opening 221, and the first bracket 32 is provided with an annular boss 322. In the projection along the optical axis 30a, the boss 322 surrounds the lighting lamp 31. The boss 322 is positioned at the inner periphery of the first mounting opening 221. The boss 322 can strengthen the structural strength of the first bracket 32 and facilitate the quick positioning of the first bracket 32 to the mounting base 22. The boss 322 surrounds the lighting lamp 31, so that the first bracket 32 can effectively protect the lighting lamp 31 and avoid damage to the lighting component 30 during the installation process.
[0067] Combination Figures 8 to 11In some embodiments of this utility model, the head assembly 20 further includes a first seat 231 and a positioning bolt 232. The first seat 231 is provided with a second mounting port 2311 extending along the vertical direction. The head assembly 40 includes a second seat 41 and a tube 42. The tube 42 is rotatably connected to the second seat 41. The second seat 41 passes through the second mounting port 2311 in the direction from bottom to top. The positioning bolt 232 passes through and positions the first seat 231 and the second seat 41 in the direction from top to bottom. Specifically, the pipe body 42 is configured to outlet water towards the cleaning space 11. The pipe body 42 is rotatably connected to the second seat 41, the position of the second seat 41 is relatively fixed, and the second seat 41 can support the pipe body 42. The second seat 41 cooperates with the first seat 231 to facilitate fixing the faucet assembly 40 to the head assembly 20, simplifying the installation structure of the faucet assembly 40. In addition, the second seat 41 is assembled with the first seat 231 in the direction from bottom to top, so that the pipe body 42 is connected to the bottom of the head assembly 20, improving the flexibility of the pipe body 42 and facilitating the rotation of the pipe body 42 to outlet water to different areas of the cleaning space 11. The positioning bolt 232 is inserted in the direction from top to bottom and positions the second seat 41 and the first seat 231, making it easy to use tools to lock the positioning bolt 232, thereby improving the efficiency of installation and maintenance.
[0068] Optionally, the pipe body 42 may have a first water outlet and a second water outlet. The first water outlet may be configured to dispense domestic water, and the second water outlet may be configured to dispense drinking water. By integrating two water outlets on a single pipe body 42, the integration level of the integrated water tank 100 is improved, saving space in the integrated water tank 100. For example, the first water outlet may be connected to a municipal water pipe, and a water purifier may be installed below the integrated water tank 100, with the water purifier connected to the second water outlet.
[0069] In some embodiments of this utility model, the pipe body 42 is designed to be rotatable about the vertical axis, which facilitates the faucet assembly 40 to output water to different areas of the cleaning space 11 and improves the convenience of user operation.
[0070] Combination Figure 12In some embodiments of this utility model, the faucet assembly 20 includes a mounting base 22, which is located above and behind the cleaning space 11. The faucet assembly 40 has a first state where it extends in the front-rear direction and its rear end is connected to the mounting base 22, and a second state where it is folded under the mounting base 22. The mounting base 22 is located above and behind the cleaning space 11, the rear end of the faucet assembly 40 is connected to the mounting base 22, and the front end of the faucet assembly 40 is a free end, facilitating water supply to the cleaning space 11. A storage space can be constructed below the mounting base 22. When water is not needed, the faucet assembly 40 can be folded under the mounting base 22, improving the tidiness of the integrated sink 100 countertop. For example, the tube 42 of the faucet assembly 40 can rotate to the left and right around the vertical axis. That is, the mounting base 22 constructs storage spaces on both sides of the vertical axis, and the faucet assembly 40 can rotate left or right to be stored in the storage space below the mounting base 22, facilitating user operation.
[0071] Combination Figure 10 Optionally, the second base 41 includes a first support 411 and a second support 412. The tube 42 is rotatably connected to the first support 411, and the second support 412 is connected to the first support 411 and stacked below the first base 231. Specifically, the first support 411 connects to the tube 42 and supports its rotation, while the second support 412 connects to the first base 231. The second support 412 is stacked below the first base 231, meaning that the surface-to-surface fit between the second support 412 and the first base 231 facilitates quick positioning of the two bases and improves the stability of their fit after installation. By using the first support 411 and the second support 412, the tube 42 is effectively supported, and the installation efficiency and connection stability of the faucet assembly 40 and the machine head assembly 20 are improved.
[0072] The first support 411 and the second support 412 can be integrally formed, or the first support 411 and the second support 412 can be connected by welding, or the first support 411 and the second support 412 can be fixedly connected by fasteners, etc., to improve the connection stability of the first support 411 and the second support 412.
[0073] The positioning bolt 232 is inserted from top to bottom and positions the first base 231 and the second support 412. It is understood that there is a large operating space above the machine head assembly 20. By fixing the first base 231 and the second support 412 from top to bottom, it is convenient to use tools to lock the positioning bolt 232, thereby improving the efficiency of installation and maintenance.
[0074] For example, when installing the head assembly 20 and the faucet assembly 40, the second seat 41 can be first fitted with the first seat 231 in an upward direction. After the second support 412 of the second seat 41 is stacked and connected with the first seat 231 in a vertical direction, the first seat 231 and the second support 412 are inserted through the positioning bolts 232 in a downward direction to fix the faucet assembly 40 to the head assembly 20, making the installation of the faucet assembly 40 convenient.
[0075] In some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting base 22 is provided with a first mounting cavity 222 with an upper opening, and the head assembly 20 also includes a cover plate 24 for opening and closing the opening.

Specifically, the second seat body 41 can be assembled with the first seat body 231 in a bottom-to-top direction, and the second seat body 41 and the first seat body 231 can be fixed from the opening. That is to say, the second seat body 41 and the first seat body 231 can be fixed from above, and the opening is sealed by the cover plate 24. The cover plate 24 can hide the mounting structure of the faucet assembly 40 and can protect the mounting structure. When the faucet assembly 40 needs to be repaired, the cover plate 24 can be opened, and the faucet assembly 40 can be disassembled through the opening. By providing the first mounting cavity 222 and the cover plate 24 in the mounting base 22, the mounting structure of the faucet assembly 40 can be hidden and protected, improving the structural stability of the head assembly 20 and the faucet assembly 40 after installation.
[0076] In some embodiments of this utility model, the head assembly 20 includes a head body 21 and a mounting base 22. The mounting base 22 includes a first branch and a second branch arranged in a front-rear direction. The first branch is stacked and connected to the upper end of the head body 21. The second branch is connected to the first branch and is opposite to the cleaning space 11 in a vertical direction. The faucet assembly 40 is connected to the first branch. Specifically, the head body 21 provides support for the mounting base 22 through the first branch, improving the connection stability between the mounting base 22 and the head body 21. The second branch is opposite to the cleaning space 11 in a vertical direction, facilitating the installation of the faucet assembly 40 through the second branch and improving the installation efficiency of the faucet assembly 40.
[0077] In addition, the second branch has a flanged section that extends vertically and overlaps with the front sidewall of the machine head body 21. The flanged section in the second branch facilitates quick positioning of the mounting base 22 and the machine head body 21, and improves the connection stability between the mounting base 22 and the machine head body 21.
[0078] Combination Figure 13In some embodiments of this utility model, the drying assembly 50 includes a first housing body 510 and a drying module 530. The first housing body 510 is provided with a first storage cavity 511. The drying module 530 is connected to the first storage cavity 511 and is configured to send air toward the first storage cavity 511. For example, the first storage cavity 511 can be configured to store knives, cutting boards and kitchen utensils. After the user cleans the kitchen utensils, there will usually be moisture remaining on the surface. By setting the drying module 530 to send air to the first storage cavity 511, the moisture in the first storage cavity 511 can be accelerated to evaporate, so that the first storage cavity 511 maintains a dry environment and avoids the storage cavity from being in a humid environment and growing bacteria.
[0079] Combination Figure 17 In some embodiments of this utility model, the head assembly 20 has a second mounting cavity 211, the first shell body 510 is disposed in the second mounting cavity 211, and the upper end is provided with an inlet. Kitchen utensils can be stored in the first storage cavity 511 through the inlet. The head assembly 20 is disposed on the rear side of the sink assembly 10, and the first shell body 510 is disposed in the second mounting cavity 211 of the head assembly 20, which makes the structure of the integrated sink 100 compact, improves the space utilization rate, and makes it convenient for users to store the kitchen utensils after washing them with the sink assembly 10.
[0080] Combination Figure 14 and Figure 17 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first housing body 510 is configured to be installed in the second mounting cavity 211 in a top-to-bottom direction. The drying module 530 is provided with a groove 531 extending in a top-to-bottom direction, and the first housing body 510 is provided with a slider 516 extending in a top-to-bottom direction. The slider 516 is installed in the groove 531 in a top-to-bottom direction. Specifically, the first housing body 510 and the drying module 530 are detachably connected, which facilitates cleaning of the first housing body 510. The cooperation between the groove 531 and the slider 516 can improve the assembly and disassembly efficiency of the first housing body 510 and the drying module 530.
[0081] For example, the head assembly 20 may include a head body 21, a first housing body 510 removably connected to the head body 21, and a drying module 530 connected to the head body 21. In other words, the first housing body 510 can be removed from the head body 21 for easy cleaning, and the drying module 530 is fixedly connected to the head body 21. By providing a slider 516 and a sliding groove 531, the first housing body 510 is easily disassembled, improving the installation efficiency of the first housing body 510.
[0082] Combination Figure 16In some embodiments of this utility model, the first shell body 510 further includes a first air inlet 514, and the slider 516 includes a first positioning protrusion 5161 and a second positioning protrusion 5162 respectively disposed on opposite sides of the first air inlet 514, the first positioning protrusion 5161 and the second positioning protrusion 5162 extending in the vertical direction; the drying module 530 further includes a first air outlet, and the slide groove 531 includes a first positioning groove and a second positioning groove respectively disposed on opposite sides of the first air outlet, the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove extending in the vertical direction. The first positioning protrusion 5161 is slidably positioned in the first positioning groove in the vertical direction, and the second positioning protrusion 5162 is slidably positioned in the second positioning groove in the vertical direction. Specifically, the first housing body 510 can be disassembled and assembled in the vertical direction. When the first housing body 510 is connected to the drying module 530 from top to bottom, the first positioning protrusion 5161 and the first positioning groove cooperate, and the second positioning protrusion 5162 and the second positioning groove cooperate, which can improve the installation efficiency of the first housing body 510. After the first housing body 510 is installed, the slider 516 can be embedded in the sliding groove 531, which improves the efficiency of the first air inlet 514 connecting with the first air outlet and improves the structural stability of the first housing body 510 and the drying module 530 after installation.
[0083] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first positioning protrusion 5161 and / or the second positioning protrusion 5162 are configured as wedges inclined towards the first receiving cavity 511 from bottom to top. Specifically, the first positioning protrusion 5161 is configured as a wedge inclined towards the first receiving cavity 511 from bottom to top; or the slide groove 531 is configured as a wedge inclined towards the first receiving cavity 511 from bottom to top; or, both the slider 516 and the slide groove 531 are configured as wedges inclined towards the first receiving cavity 511 from bottom to top. The first positioning protrusion 5161 and / or the second positioning protrusion 5162 can play a guiding role, facilitating the rapid positioning of the first air inlet 514 and the first air outlet when the first housing body 510 is installed from top to bottom, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the first housing body 510.
[0084] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove are configured as wedges inclined from bottom to top in a direction away from the internal space of the drying module 530. The first positioning groove and the second positioning groove can guide the first housing body 510, and when the first housing body 510 is installed into the drying module 530 from top to bottom, it is convenient to guide the rapid positioning of the first air inlet 514 and the first air outlet, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the first housing body 510.
[0085] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first positioning protrusion 5161 and the second positioning protrusion 5162 are configured as wedges inclined toward the first receiving cavity 511 in an upward direction, and the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove are configured as wedges inclined away from the internal space of the drying module 530 in an upward direction. The first housing body 510 is detachably connected to the drying module 530, facilitating cleaning of the first housing body 510. The first housing body 510 and the drying module 530 can be docked vertically. For example, the first housing body 510 is inserted into the head body 21 of the integrated water tank 100 from top to bottom and docks with the drying module 530. The slider 516 forms a wedge-shaped slider 516, and the groove 531 forms a wedge-shaped groove 531. The slider 516 and the groove 531 cooperate. When the first housing body 510 is docked with the drying module 530 from top to bottom, the wedge-shaped slider 516 can slide into the wedge-shaped groove 531, which facilitates the quick docking of the first air inlet 514 and the first air outlet, improving the installation efficiency of the first housing body 510 and enhancing the structural stability after docking.
[0086] Combination Figure 16 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first storage cavity 511 includes a first cavity 5111 and a second cavity 5112 that are interconnected. The second cavity 5112 is located above the first cavity 5111. The first shell body 510 also includes a first support portion 512. The first support portion 512 is located on the first shell body 510 and protrudes from the inner surface of the first storage cavity 511 to support kitchen utensils. The first support portion 512 is located between the first cavity 5111 and the second cavity 5112.
[0087] For example, the second cavity 5112 can be used to store kitchen utensils such as knives and cutting boards. After use, the user cleans the knives and cutting boards, which usually retain moisture. When the utensils are placed in the second cavity 5112, the moisture can enter the first cavity 5111 under gravity. The first support 512 can support the utensils and prevent them from directly contacting the bottom of the first storage cavity 511. The moisture on the surface of the utensils can be collected in the first cavity 5111 under gravity, preventing moisture accumulation on the utensils and keeping their surfaces dry. In addition, the drying module 530 blows air into the first storage cavity 511, accelerating the evaporation of moisture inside the cavity and keeping the first storage cavity 511 dry, preventing the storage cavity from being in a damp state for a long time and growing bacteria.
[0088] In addition, it is understandable that water can easily enter the first cavity 5111 under the action of gravity. By setting a support part to support the kitchen utensils in the second cavity 5112, the kitchen utensils are prevented from blocking the first cavity 5111, which makes it easier to blow air into the first cavity 5111 through the drying component 50, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the drying component 50 in the first storage cavity 511.
[0089] Optionally, the first support portion 512 may be connected to the front sidewall and / or rear sidewall of the first shell body 510; or, the first support portion 512 may be integrally formed with the front sidewall of the first shell body 510; or, the first support portion 512 may be integrally formed with the rear sidewall of the first shell body 510.
[0090] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first support portion 512 includes a first protrusion 5121 and a second protrusion 5122. The first protrusion 5121 is disposed on the first sidewall 5113 and protrudes toward the second sidewall 5114, and the second protrusion 5122 is disposed on the second sidewall 5114 and protrudes toward the first sidewall 5113. The first protrusion 5121 and the second protrusion 5122 abut against each other; or, the first protrusion 5121 and the second protrusion 5122 are spaced apart. By providing protrusions 322 on both the first sidewall 5113 and the second sidewall 5114, the first protrusion 5121 and the second protrusion 5122 can work together to distribute the pressure of the kitchen utensils, improving the structural strength of the first support portion 512 and its supporting effect on the kitchen utensils.
[0091] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first storage cavity 511 further includes an air inlet 514, which is located at the lower part of one side wall of the first storage cavity 511 along its width direction. The drying module 530 is connected to the air inlet 514. Specifically, the drying module 530 supplies air to the first storage cavity 511 through the air inlet 514. In conjunction with the foregoing, the first storage cavity 511 has a first cavity 5111 and a second cavity 5112 that are interconnected. The first cavity 5111 is located below the first storage cavity 511, and the kitchen utensils are stored in the second cavity 5112. The air inlet 514 is located at the lower part of the side wall of the first storage cavity 511, which facilitates the air blown out by the drying module 530 to smoothly enter the first storage cavity 511 from the first cavity 5111, reduces the obstruction of the air inlet 514 by the kitchen utensils, improves the air supply efficiency to the first storage cavity 511, and thus accelerates the evaporation of moisture in the first storage cavity 511, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the drying assembly 50.
[0092] For example, the drying module 530 may include a fan and a heating unit. Specifically, the heat from the heating unit can heat the surrounding air so that the drying module 530 can deliver hot air to the first receiving cavity 511, thereby accelerating moisture evaporation and improving drying efficiency.
[0093] Combination Figure 15 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first receiving cavity 511 further includes a drain outlet 515. The drain outlet 515 is disposed on the bottom wall of the first receiving cavity 511, and water entering the first cavity 5111 can be discharged through the drain outlet 515 to prevent water from accumulating in the first receiving cavity 511 and to maintain a dry environment inside the first receiving cavity 511. Exemplarily, the drain outlet 515 can be connected to an external drain pipe.
[0094] Furthermore, the inner bottom surface of the first receiving cavity 511 is configured to slope downwards in the direction close to the drain outlet 515. The inner bottom surface can play a guiding role, so that the water on the inner bottom surface can flow out quickly through the drain outlet 515, and prevent water from accumulating on the inner bottom surface of the first receiving cavity 511 and causing bacteria to grow in the first receiving cavity 511.
[0095] In some embodiments of this utility model, the drying assembly 50 further includes a second shell body 520, which has a second storage cavity. A drying module 530 is disposed between the first shell body 510 and the second shell body 520, and connects the first storage cavity 511 and the second storage cavity. The first storage cavity 511 and the second storage cavity can be used to store different types of kitchen utensils. For example, the first storage cavity 511 can be used to store knives, and the second storage cavity can be used to store cutting boards, etc. By providing multiple shell bodies with different storage cavities, it is convenient to store different types of kitchen utensils. Furthermore, by providing the drying module 530, air is supplied to the storage cavities to maintain a dry environment and prevent bacterial growth. In this technical solution, the specific structure of the second shell body 520 can refer to the aforementioned structure of the first shell body 510 and has all the beneficial effects of the first shell body 510, which will not be repeated here.
[0096] Optionally, the first housing body 510 also includes a third storage cavity, and the drying module 530 is connected to the third storage cavity. For example, the first storage cavity 511 can be used to store cutting boards, and the third storage cavity can be used to store knives, etc. That is to say, the first housing body 510 can be provided with multiple storage cavities. By providing multiple storage cavities, it is convenient to store different types of kitchen utensils. Furthermore, by providing the drying module 530, air is supplied to the storage cavities to maintain a dry environment inside the storage cavities and prevent the growth of bacteria.

[0098] The lighting component 30 can be disposed in the first mounting cavity 222. The cover plate 24 is in the first mounting cavity 222. The first mounting cavity 222 can protect the lighting component 30 and provide a stable working environment for the lighting component 30. When it is necessary to repair or replace the lighting component 30, the cover plate 24 can be opened and the lighting component 30 can be removed from the first mounting cavity 222, which facilitates the installation and removal of the lighting component 30.
[0099] In addition, the head assembly 20 includes a first seat 231 and a positioning bolt 232. The faucet assembly 40 may include a tube 42 and a second seat 41.

The first seat 231 is connected to the inner bottom surface of the first mounting cavity 222 and the first seat 231 and the second seat 41 are fixed in the direction from top to bottom by the positioning bolt 232. The cover plate 24 covers the first mounting cavity 222 and can cover the mounting structure of the faucet assembly 40. When the faucet assembly 40 needs to be repaired, the cover plate 24 can be opened and the positioning bolt 232 can be removed from the first mounting cavity 222, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the faucet assembly 40.
[0100] Combination Figure 19 This utility model provides a washing device 1000, including the aforementioned integrated sink 100 and dishwasher 200.
