[0002] In small bathrooms, limited space often prevents the installation of standard-sized washbasins. While mini washbasins can improve space utilization in such situations, their small size makes them unsuitable for most users, resulting in poor convenience. Utility Model Content
[0003] This disclosure provides a washing device.
[0004] According to one aspect of this disclosure, a washing device is provided, comprising: a washbasin; and a panel having a perforated area, the panel being switchable between a first state and a second state, wherein in the first state the washbasin can be filled with water through the perforated area; and in the second state the washbasin can be filled with water without passing through the perforated area.
[0005] According to one technical solution, a movable panel is added to the washbasin. In the first state, the washbasin can be filled with water through the perforated area, and in the second state, the washbasin can be filled with water without going through the perforated area. This makes the washbasin device more flexible and versatile, meeting the needs of more usage scenarios and thus improving the convenience of washing.
[0006] According to at least one embodiment of the washbasin device of the present disclosure, in the first state, the panel covers a portion of the washbasin.
[0007] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, in the first state, the portion of the panel covering the washbasin can have its stability enhanced through an overlapping structure.
[0008] According to at least one embodiment of the washbasin device of this disclosure, in the second state, the panel is substantially vertical; in the first state, the panel is substantially horizontal.
[0009] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, in the second state the panel is placed vertically, reducing the horizontal footprint and making it suitable for small spaces; in the first state it is placed horizontally, which is ergonomic and facilitates washing operations.
[0010] According to at least one embodiment of the washbasin of the present disclosure, in the first state, the washbasin supports the panel.
[0011] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, in the first state, the washbasin serves as a support structure for the panel, reducing the need for additional support structures, simplifying the design of the wash device, reducing manufacturing and installation costs, and enhancing the stability and reliability of the panel in the first state.
[0012] According to at least one embodiment of the washbasin device of the present disclosure, when the panel is in the first state, the hollow area is located directly above the basin opening of the washbasin, and the projection of the hollow area on the horizontal plane is located within the projection of the basin opening on the horizontal plane.
[0013] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, the hollow area is smaller and located directly above the opening of the washbasin, which facilitates the precise flow of water from the panel into the washbasin, avoids water overflowing during the process of flowing into the washbasin, reduces water splashing, improves drainage efficiency, and at the same time maintains the cleanliness of the washing device and improves the user experience.
[0014] According to at least one embodiment of the washbasin device of this disclosure, the sum of the area of the panel and the area of the hollowed-out area is greater than the basin opening area of the washbasin.
[0015] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, since the sum of the area of the panel and the area of the hollowed-out area is greater than the opening area of the washbasin, washing activities can be carried out in a larger area in the first state. For example, items can be placed on the panel, washing activities can be carried out on the panel, and washing activities can also be carried out in the washbasin, thus satisfying washing needs to a greater extent. In the second state, washing activities can be carried out in a smaller area, such as washing activities only in the washbasin. This satisfies certain washing needs while improving the space utilization of the space where the washing device is located, making it suitable for small bathrooms or other space-constrained environments. Thus, by switching the state of the panel, the washing device can be dynamically adjusted, effectively resolving the contradiction between space utilization and washing convenience.
[0016] According to at least one embodiment of the washbasin of the present disclosure, the washbasin includes a countertop and a basin body, the countertop being disposed around the outer periphery of the basin body, and the sum of the area of the panel and the area of the hollowed-out area being greater than the sum of the area of the basin body opening and the area of the countertop.
[0017] According to the technical solution of this embodiment, since the sum of the area of the panel and the area of the hollowed-out area is greater than the sum of the area of the basin opening and the area of the countertop, in the first state, washing activities can be carried out in a larger area. For example, items can be placed on the panel, or washing activities can be carried out on the panel or part of the countertop, or even in the basin, thus satisfying washing needs to a greater extent. In the second state, washing activities can be carried out in a smaller area, such as in the basin or on the countertop. This satisfies certain washing needs while improving the space utilization of the space where the washing device is located, making it suitable for small bathrooms or other space-constrained environments. Thus, by switching the state of the panel, the washing device can be dynamically adjusted, effectively resolving the contradiction between space utilization and washing convenience.

[0061] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0062] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be combined with each other. The technical solutions of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0063] Mini washbasins are widely used in bathrooms with limited space due to their small footprint. However, because of their small washing area, mini washbasins are often insufficient for holding items, washing larger items, or meeting higher functional needs, resulting in poor washing convenience. In contrast, large washbasins provide ample washing area and are suitable for various usage scenarios, but their larger size can lead to cramped spaces in small bathrooms, limiting the placement of other facilities and reducing the space utilization rate of small bathrooms.
[0064] To this end, the present disclosure proposes the following technical solution, wherein a movable panel is added to the washbasin, and in the first state the washbasin can be filled with water through the hollow area, and in the second state the washbasin can be filled with water without going through the hollow area, making the wash device more flexible and versatile, meeting the usage needs of more scenarios, thereby improving the convenience of washing.
[0065] The washbasin device disclosed herein can be installed in confined spaces to improve the convenience of washing in confined spaces, and / or to resolve the contradiction between space utilization and washing convenience in confined spaces.
[0066] Please combine Figures 1 to 6 The washing device 1000 provided in this embodiment includes a washbasin 100 and a panel 200. The panel 200 has a hollow area 202 and can switch between a first state and a second state. In the first state, the washbasin 100 can be filled with water through the hollow area 202; in the second state, the washbasin 100 can be filled with water without passing through the hollow area 202.
[0067] For example, panel 200 can be mounted on washbasin 100, or washbasin 100 and panel 200 can be mounted on the same object, or washbasin 100 and panel 200 can be mounted on different objects; no limitation is made here. The shape and material of washbasin 100 and panel 200 can be set according to actual needs; no limitation is made here. The shape, number, and size of the cutout area 202 can be set according to actual needs; no limitation is made here.
[0068] The washbasin device 1000 of this disclosure adds a movable panel 200 to the washbasin 100. In a first state, the washbasin 100 can be filled with water through the hollow area 202, and in a second state, the washbasin 100 can be filled with water without going through the hollow area 202. This makes the washbasin device 1000 more flexible and versatile, and can meet the usage needs of more scenarios, thereby improving the convenience of washing.
[0069] In some embodiments of this disclosure, in a first state, the panel 200 at least partially covers a portion of the washbasin 100.
[0070] For example, in the first state, the panel 200 may be located directly above or diagonally above the washbasin 100, thereby covering a portion of the washbasin 100.
[0071] For example, in the first state, a portion of the panel 200 can cover a portion of the washbasin 100, while the remaining portion of the panel 200 can be staggered with the remaining portion of the washbasin 100 and not cover each other. For example, the remaining portion of the panel 200 can be suspended.
[0072] It is worth noting that in this disclosure, "covering" refers to the overlapping of projections on a horizontal plane. Whether the two objects whose projections overlap are set in contact with each other or set at a certain height interval in the vertical direction is not limited here.
[0073] In the first state of the washbasin 1000 of the above embodiment, the panel 200 covers part of the washbasin 100, and the stability of the device can be enhanced by the overlapping structure.
[0074] In some embodiments of this disclosure, in the second state, the panel 200 is substantially vertical; in the first state, the panel 200 is substantially horizontal.
[0075] For example, when panel 200 is folded down from a vertical position to a horizontal position, panel 200 is fully unfolded and is in the first state; when panel 200 is folded up from a horizontal position to a vertical position, panel 200 is fully folded and is in the second state.
[0076] In the above-described embodiment, the washbasin device 1000 has its panel 200 vertically placed in the second state, reducing its lateral footprint and making it suitable for confined spaces; in the first state, it is horizontally placed, conforming to ergonomics and facilitating wash-up operations. This flexible state-switching design enhances the adaptability and practicality of the washbasin device 1000 in different scenarios.
[0077] In some embodiments of this disclosure, in a first state, the washbasin 100 supports the panel 200.
[0078] For example, in the first state, the panel 200 is in contact with the washbasin 100, and the washbasin 100 is able to provide support for the panel 200.
[0079] In the first state of the washbasin 1000 described above, the washbasin 100 serves as a support structure for the panel 200, reducing the need for additional support structures, simplifying the design of the washbasin 1000, reducing manufacturing and installation costs, and enhancing the stability and reliability of the panel 200 in the first state.
[0080] In some embodiments of this disclosure, when the panel 200 is in the first state, the cutout area 202 is located directly above the basin opening 102, and the projection of the cutout area 202 on the horizontal plane is located within the projection of the basin opening 102 on the horizontal plane.
[0081] The projection of the hollow area 202 on the horizontal plane is located within the projection of the basin opening 102 on the horizontal plane. That is, the shape of the projection of the hollow area 202 on the horizontal plane is surrounded by the shape of the projection of the basin opening 102 on the horizontal plane. In other words, the area of the hollow area 202 is smaller than the area of the basin opening 102.
[0082] For example, in the first state, the center position of the cutout area 202 of the panel 200 coincides with the center position of the basin opening 102 of the washbasin 100 in the vertical direction.
[0083] In the above-described embodiment of the washing device 1000, the hollow area 202 is smaller and located directly above the basin opening 102 of the washbasin 100, which facilitates the precise flow of water from the panel 200 into the washbasin 100, avoids water overflowing during the flow into the washbasin 100, reduces water splashing, improves drainage efficiency, and at the same time maintains the cleanliness of the washing device 1000 and enhances the user experience.
[0084] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the sum of the area of the panel 200 and the area of the hollowed-out area 202 is greater than the area of the basin opening 102 of the washbasin 100.
[0085] In this embodiment, the washbasin 100 may have only a basin body and no countertop surrounding the outer periphery of the basin body.
[0086] The washbasin device 1000 described above, because the sum of the area of the panel 200 and the area of the hollow area 202 is greater than the area of the basin opening 102 of the washbasin 100, allows for washing activities in a wider area in the first state. For example, items can be placed on the panel 200, washing activities can be performed on the panel 200, and washing activities can also be performed in the washbasin 100, thus satisfying washing needs to a greater extent. In the second state, washing activities can be performed in a smaller area, such as washing activities only in the washbasin 100. This satisfies certain washing needs while improving the space utilization of the space where the washbasin device 1000 is located, making it suitable for small bathrooms or other space-constrained environments. Thus, by switching the state of the panel 200, the washbasin device 1000 can be dynamically adjusted, effectively resolving the contradiction between space utilization and washing convenience.
[0087] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the washbasin includes a countertop and a basin body. The countertop is arranged around the outer periphery of the basin body, and the sum of the area of the panel and the area of the hollowed-out area is greater than the sum of the area of the basin body opening and the area of the countertop.
[0088] For example, the countertop can be integrally formed with the basin, or it can be additionally installed on the outer perimeter of the basin. Adding a countertop allows the washbasin to meet more washing needs.
[0089] The washbasin device 1000 described above, because the sum of the area of the panel and the area of the openwork area is greater than the sum of the area of the basin opening and the area of the countertop, allows for washing activities in a wider area in the first state. For example, items can be placed on the panel, or washing can be done on the panel or part of the countertop, or even in the basin, thus better meeting washing needs. In the second state, washing activities can be done in a smaller area, such as in the basin or on the countertop. This satisfies certain washing needs while improving the space utilization of the space where the washbasin device is located, making it suitable for small bathrooms or other space-constrained environments. Therefore, by switching the state of the panel, the washbasin device can be dynamically adjusted, effectively resolving the contradiction between space utilization and washing convenience.
[0090] In some embodiments of this disclosure, water on panel 200 flows into washbasin 100 through perforated area 202.
[0091] The washbasin 1000 of the above embodiment has a hollow area 202 that has a drainage function, so that the water on the panel 200 can flow directly into the washbasin 100, thereby optimizing the drainage path, improving water flow efficiency, reducing pipe complexity and water stain accumulation, and enhancing the cleanliness and ease of use of the washbasin 1000.
[0092] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the bottom inner wall of the panel 200 is provided with an inclined surface 204 that slopes toward the hollow area 202. The inclined surface 204 is used to guide water flow in the panel 200 to the hollow area 202 during use of the panel 200.
[0093] For example, a hollow area 202 can be provided at the lowest point of the inclined surface 204, so that water can flow along the inclined surface 204 to the hollow area 202 and then enter the washbasin 100 from the hollow area 202.
[0094] The washbasin 1000 of the above embodiment features a reasonably designed slope 204 at the bottom of the panel 200, allowing the water after washing to smoothly and naturally converge along the sloped surface and be guided to quickly flow into the washbasin 100. This structure not only effectively reduces water residue inside the panel 200 but also significantly reduces the risk of dirt accumulation and bacterial growth caused by water retention. Simultaneously, the slope 204 design improves drainage efficiency, making the entire washbasin easier to dry after use and maintaining cleanliness and hygiene.
[0095] Please combine Figure 7 and Figure 8In some embodiments of this disclosure, a water guiding unit 400 is provided on the water outflow direction A of the hollow area 202. The water guiding unit 400 is used to guide the water flowing out of the opening 202 to the washbasin 100 during the use of the panel 200.
[0096] For example, the water guiding unit 400 may be strip-shaped, plate-shaped or other shapes, and the material of the water guiding unit 400 may be silicone, plastic or other materials, which are not limited here.
[0097] The water guiding unit 400 can be multiple units distributed in the hollow area 202 in the direction of water flow A, or it can be a whole unit surrounding the hollow area 202 in the direction of water flow A. No limitation is made here.
[0098] For example, since the projection of the hollow area 202 on the horizontal plane in the first state is within the projection of the basin opening 102 on the horizontal plane, and the water guiding unit 400 is set relative to the hollow area 202, the projection of the water guiding unit 400 on the horizontal plane in the first state is also within the projection of the basin opening 102 on the horizontal plane, thereby facilitating the flow of water in the panel 200 into the washbasin 100 and playing a role in physical waterproofing.
[0099] In the above-described embodiment of the washbasin device 1000, the water guiding unit 400 guides water flow smoothly from the hollow area 202 of the panel 200 into the washbasin 100, optimizes the water flow direction, prevents water leakage at the connection between the basin opening 102 and the hollow area 202, reduces water scattering and overflow, improves drainage efficiency, keeps the wash area clean, and enhances user comfort and the practicality of the washbasin device 1000.
[0100] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the water guiding unit 400 extends from the periphery of the hollow region 202 toward the water outflow direction A of the hollow region 202.
[0101] The extension length can be set according to actual needs and is not limited here.
[0102] In the above-described embodiment of the washbasin device 1000, the water guiding unit 400 extends from around the hollow area 202 toward the water flow outward direction A of the hollow area 202, which can enhance the water flow guiding effect, assist the water flow to flow into the washbasin 100 faster and more concentratedly, reduce water flow dispersion and splashing, improve drainage accuracy, keep the wash area clean, and optimize the user experience.
[0103] In some embodiments of this disclosure, a barrier structure is formed on the outer periphery of the panel 200 to restrict water flow from overflowing from the outer edge of the panel 200.
[0104] For example, the fencing structure may be plate-shaped. The fencing structure may be integrally formed with the panel 200, or it may be additionally installed on the outer periphery of the panel 200.
[0105] The washbasin device 1000 of the above embodiment prevents water from overflowing from the outer edge of the panel 200 through the enclosure structure, keeping the washbasin area clean and optimizing the user experience.
[0106] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the washbasin 1000 also includes a faucet 300, which and the panel 200 are located above the washbasin 100. During the switching of the panel 200 between a second state and a first state, the faucet 300 can pass through the cutout area 202.
[0107] The washbasin device 1000 of the above embodiment has a hollow area 202 design that allows the faucet 300 to pass through when the panel 200 is switched, so that the panel 200 can avoid the faucet 300 during the state switching process, avoid collision with the faucet 300, and thus be compatible with the faucet layout. No additional adjustment to the pipe layout is required, reducing the need for installation and adjustment, reducing the installation difficulty, and improving the adaptability and flexibility of the washbasin device 1000.
[0108] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the washbasin 1000 further includes a mounting unit 500 for integrating the washbasin 100 and the panel 200 together.
[0109] For example, in Figures 1 to 4 In the example, mounting unit 500 is a mounting plate; in other embodiments, the mounting unit may also be a mounting frame or a mounting strip, which is not limited here. The number of mounting units can be set according to requirements.
