[0002] In the kitchen, the countertop is a key flat structure that supports various items and is used for cooking and related operations. It is usually made of materials such as solid wood, artificial stone, quartz stone, and stainless steel. Due to its high frequency of use, it needs to have good strength, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning to meet the diverse daily needs of the kitchen.

[0003] However, in practical use, existing kitchen countertops generally lack effective water-blocking mechanisms. During frequent water activities such as washing vegetables and dishes, water easily flows onto the countertop. Without a water-blocking design, this water flows freely along the edges of the countertop onto the floor and the cabinets. This not only makes the floor slippery, greatly increasing the risk of users slipping and getting injured, but also causes the cabinet boards to gradually swell and deform after being exposed to moisture for a long time. In severe cases, they may even mold and rot, greatly reducing the structural stability and aesthetics of the cabinets. At the same time, the lack of a water-blocking design allows water to spread everywhere, increasing the area and difficulty of cleaning.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] refer to Figures 1-5 A water-blocking kitchen countertop panel includes a countertop panel 1, with a sink mounting hole 8 on the top surface of the countertop panel 1. The sink mounting hole 8 facilitates the precise installation of the sink, ensuring that the sink can be firmly embedded in the countertop panel 1, allowing water operations such as washing vegetables and dishes to be carried out smoothly. Moreover, the installed sink fits tightly with the countertop, which helps to maintain the integrity and aesthetics of the kitchen operation area.

[0021] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The side of the countertop panel 1 is provided with an inner groove 2, and a connecting sealing plate 3 is installed inside the inner groove 2. The inner groove 2 provides installation space for the connecting sealing plate 3. The connecting sealing plate 3 is installed in the inner groove 2, which can provide initial protection for the side of the countertop panel 1, reduce damage to the side caused by collisions, scratches, etc., and provide stable support for the subsequent installation of the water-blocking strip and the overall waterproof sealing structure.

[0022] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inner wall of the groove 2 is provided with a connecting sealing groove 4, and the inner wall of the connecting sealing plate 3 is provided with a connecting fixing component 5 that connects to the connecting sealing groove 4. A water-blocking strip 6 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the connecting sealing plate 3. The cooperation between the connecting sealing groove 4 and the connecting fixing component 5 can improve the stability of the subsequent connection between the connecting sealing plate 3 and the cabinet countertop 1. The water-blocking strip 6 is installed on the top surface of the connecting sealing plate 3, which can effectively prevent water from flowing from the countertop to the ground or the cabinet body, reduce the risk of slipping due to water overflow, protect the cabinet body from water erosion, and extend the service life of the cabinet.

[0023] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The bottom surface of the water-retaining strip 6 is provided with silicone sealant 7, and the bottom surface of the silicone sealant 7 is in contact with the top surface of the countertop panel 1. The silicone sealant 7 has good weather resistance, water resistance and elasticity. The silicone sealant 7 fills the gap between the water-retaining strip 6 and the countertop panel 1, which further enhances the waterproof sealing and effectively prevents water from seeping from the connection between the water-retaining strip and the countertop. Even in the humid environment of the kitchen where water is frequently used, it can ensure the durability of the water-retaining effect. At the same time, it can also improve the stable connection between the water-retaining strip 6 and the countertop panel 1.

[0024] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The connecting and fixing component 5 includes a connecting protrusion 501, a connecting groove 502, and a connecting block 503. The connecting protrusion 501 corresponding to the connecting sealing groove 4 is fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the connecting sealing plate 3. The connecting protrusion 501 is inserted into the inside of the connecting sealing groove 4. By setting the connecting protrusion 501 to engage with the connecting sealing groove 4, it is convenient to position and install the connecting sealing plate 3, making the installation process of the connecting sealing plate 3 more convenient and accurate. At the same time, it increases the contact area between the connecting sealing plate 3 and the cabinet countertop 1, which helps to improve the firmness of the connection.

[0025] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The connecting sealing groove 4 has connecting slots 502 on its top and bottom surfaces. Connecting blocks 503, corresponding to the connecting slots 502, are fixedly installed on the top and bottom surfaces of one end of the connecting protrusion 501. The connecting blocks 503 engage with the inside of the connecting slots 502. The end of the connecting block 503 away from the connecting protrusion 501 has an arc-shaped surface. The connecting sealing plate 3, the connecting protrusion 501, and the connecting blocks 503 are all made of rubber. The engagement of the connecting blocks 503 with the connecting slots 502 facilitates the installation and fixing of the connecting sealing plate 3 within the inner groove. The internal structure of 2 improves the connection stability between the connecting sealing plate 3 and the cabinet countertop 1, preventing the connecting sealing plate 3 from shifting during use. The arc-shaped design of the connecting clip 503 facilitates its smooth insertion into the connecting clip groove 502, reducing installation difficulty. Furthermore, the connecting sealing plate 3, connecting protrusion 501, and connecting clip 503, all made of rubber, possess excellent flexibility and sealing properties, allowing them to adapt to a certain degree of deformation and further enhancing the waterproof sealing effect. At the same time, the rubber material also has a certain buffering effect, reducing damage to the cabinet countertop caused by external impacts.

[0026] The implementation principle of a water-blocking kitchen countertop panel of this application is as follows: The user first picks up the connecting sealing plate 3 and accurately inserts the connecting protrusion 501 installed on one side of it into the connecting sealing groove 4, so as to facilitate the positioning and installation of the connecting sealing plate 3 in the inner groove 2, so that the connecting sealing plate 3 and the side of the kitchen countertop panel 1 are tightly fitted to form a whole and improve the aesthetics.

[0027] As the connecting protrusion 501 continues to advance along the connecting sealing groove 4, the connecting clip 503 will be engaged inside the connecting clip groove 502, thereby completing the installation and fixing of the connecting sealing plate 3, significantly improving its stability. After the connecting sealing plate 3 is installed and fixed, the water-blocking strip 6 is located on the top surface of the cabinet countertop 1, immediately forming a water-blocking function for the cabinet countertop 1. Subsequently, personnel fill the space between the cabinet countertop 1 and the water-blocking strip 6 with silicone sealant 7, which not only greatly improves the sealing performance and effectively waterproofs, but also enhances the stability between the cabinet countertop 1 and the water-blocking strip 6, preventing the water-blocking strip 6 from moving at will.

[0028] The device has a simple overall structure and is easy to operate. The installation and removal of the connecting sealing plate 3 and the water-blocking strip 6 are relatively convenient, and it also improves the aesthetics of the boundary lines. After installation, the connecting sealing plate 3 and the water-blocking strip 6 can effectively block the water flow on the countertop 1 of the cabinet, prevent water from flowing to the ground or the cabinet body, reduce the risk of slipping due to water overflow, protect the cabinet body from water erosion, extend the service life of the cabinet, and the overall appearance after installation is beautiful and elegant, with strong practicality.
