Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen equipment technology, specifically to a washing sink. Background Technology
[0002] Existing kitchen sinks have a relatively simple function, generally only used to hold a large amount of water for washing dishes. After use, dirt easily remains on the inner wall of the sink, and if it is not cleaned for a long time, it will produce an odor. It is not convenient to clean it by spraying water from the faucet.
[0003] To this end, Chinese patent application number CN202410217671.7, entitled "A Household Intelligent Dishwashing Device", adds an electric cleaning brush to the faucet to achieve the function of cleaning tableware, sink body and other items.
[0004] However, the above solutions have several drawbacks. First, supplying cleaning agents by setting up a detergent dispenser on the cleaning brush body increases the weight of the cleaning brush, making it inconvenient for users to operate. Second, the electric cleaning brush and the faucet share the same water inlet pipe, making it impossible to supply hot and cold water to the electric cleaning brush. Utility Model Content
