Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sink technology, and in particular to a sink that is easy to drain. Background Technology

[0002] A sink is a appliance used for draining water, collecting gas, or holding large amounts of water. Sinks play an important role in the kitchen and are typically made of materials such as stainless steel, enamel iron, ceramic, artificial stone, acrylic, crystallized stone, and cast iron enamel. Among these, stainless steel sinks are widely used due to their corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, and durability. The main function of a sink is to wash dishes and food. Its design usually includes two basins and a removable faucet for convenient washing. When choosing a sink, its material, style, and coordination with the kitchen's overall decor should be considered. Proper maintenance and care are also crucial for ensuring the sink's longevity and aesthetic appeal.

[0003] Currently, in existing sinks, the drain outlet is generally located in the middle of the sink or on one side of the middle. As a result, when water is drained, the water in the sink needs to constantly bounce back and forth against the sides of the sink and bounce back to the drain outlet, which reduces the drainage efficiency and affects the use of the sink. Based on this, we propose a sink that facilitates drainage. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a water tank that is easy to drain. After improvement, the water tank can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0020] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0021] like Figure 1-3As shown,

[0022] A water tank that facilitates drainage includes a tank body 1. A drain outlet 2 is provided on the bottom surface of the tank body 1 and near the right side of the tank body 1. A drain plate 3 is provided on the inner bottom surface of the tank body 1. A drain outlet 4 is provided on the inner bottom surface of the tank body 1 and between the drain plate 3 and the side of the tank body 1. The drain outlet 4 is located near the drain outlet 2. The drain plate 3 is tilted to the right. In this application, a drain housing is integrally formed on the bottom surface of the tank 1 and the right side near the tank 1. The drain housing forms a drain outlet 2 inside and protrudes from the bottom surface of the tank 1. This arrangement has two advantages: first, it creates a larger drain outlet 2, improving drainage efficiency; second, the protruding part of the drain housing will not affect the installation of the entire tank; and third, by placing the drain outlet 2 at one end of the tank, after the tank is installed, the connected pipe can be directly connected to the external drain pipe (the vertical position is basically the same). This connection method avoids pipe bending connections. When the drain outlet 2 is placed in the middle or on one side of the middle of the tank, the connected water pipe will have to be bent to connect to the external drain pipe. After the water pipe is bent, it is difficult for water to drain, which can easily cause blockages. Moreover, water and sludge can easily accumulate at the bend, causing odor to spread and greatly affecting the use of the tank.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the tank body 1 and the drain plate 3 are integrally formed, and the angle between the drain plate 3 and the horizontal plane is 2°. The purpose of this design is to facilitate the continuous flow of water to the right without affecting the appearance of the tank (slight tilt, the tilt effect is not easily visible to the naked eye), thereby accelerating the drainage efficiency when used with this tank.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, two drain outlets 4 are provided, symmetrically arranged front and back around the drain outlet 2. It can be understood that since the drain outlet 2 is located in the middle of its right end, two drain outlets 4 are needed. This ensures that when water flows to the right, the first part flows through the middle of the drain plate 3, the second part flows through the front drain outlet 4, and the third part flows through the rear drain outlet 4. This structure greatly accelerates drainage efficiency.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, a drain hole 5 is provided in the middle of the drain outlet 2, and a supporting step 6 is provided on the side of the drain outlet 2. A water-separating basket 7 is placed on the drain outlet 2 via the supporting step 6. The bottom surface of the water-separating basket 7 is provided with several through holes 8. A handle 9 is integrally formed and connected to the top of the front and rear sides of the water-separating basket 7, which facilitates the installation and removal of the water-separating basket 7. In this embodiment, by providing the supporting step 6, the water-separating basket 7 will not occupy the internal space of the water tank after installation, thus maximizing the use of the water tank space. Moreover, the supporting step 6 also makes the use of the water-separating basket 7 more stable, reducing the likelihood of the water-separating basket 7 tilting and falling, or leaking residue, thereby improving the use effect of the water-separating basket 7. In addition, this design also maximizes the residue-separating space of the water-separating basket 7, almost matching the space of the drain outlet 2, thereby greatly improving the use effect of the water tank.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, sliding steps 10 are provided on the inner walls of both the front and rear sides of the tank 1. The sliding steps 10 are integrally formed with the tank 1. From left to right, the sliding steps 10 include an upper step 11, an inclined step 12, and a lower step 13, all integrally formed. By providing the sliding steps 10, items placed on them can be slid to the left or right, making it more convenient for the user.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, a cutting board 14 and a sink 15 are placed between the two symmetrical sliding steps 10, and the bottom surface of the sink 15 is provided with drainage holes 16. The cutting board 14 and sink 15 can increase the versatility of this sink and improve space utilization. It has a better effect in smaller kitchen environments, and can be used directly on the sink or placed elsewhere.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom surface of the tank 1 is provided with an installation groove, and a sound-absorbing cotton pad is fixedly adhered to the installation groove. The bottom surface of the tank 1 is flush with the bottom surface of the sound-absorbing cotton pad. By providing a sound-absorbing cotton pad, the water falling from the faucet into the tank can be effectively silenced, thereby purifying the impurities and noise in the tank's operating environment and further improving the tank's performance.

[0029] The method of using this utility model is as follows: the cutting board 14 and the washing basin 15 can be placed between two symmetrical sliding steps 10. When the cutting board 14 is slid to the right, it can slide from the left side of the sink to the right side, which is more convenient for washing and cutting. After the sink is installed, the faucet can be installed on the left side of the sink. When water is drained, it will flow to the right. Part of the water will fall directly through the drain plate 3 into the drain outlet 2, and the other part will fall into the drain outlet 4. Because there is a height difference between the drain plate 3 and the drain outlet 4, the water will fall quickly into the drain outlet 2, which greatly speeds up the drainage efficiency and improves the use effect of the sink.

[0030] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
