Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen equipment technology, specifically to a washing sink. Background Technology

[0002] Most existing cleaning sinks are open-type sinks.

[0003] To prevent sinks from gathering dust when not in use, Chinese patent application CN201920518032.9, entitled "A Stainless Steel Sink with a Dust Cover," discloses a stainless steel sink with a dust cover. The inner wall of the stainless steel sink has a groove, and a strip guide rail is mounted on the inner wall of a cabinet connected to the sink. The dust cover can slide along the groove and the strip guide rail. When in use, the dust cover can be pulled out to cover the surface of the stainless steel sink; when not in use, the dust cover can be retracted into the cabinet. This design protects the stainless steel sink from dust contamination and makes the dust cover easy to put on and take off.

[0004] However, the dust cover mentioned above takes up a lot of space. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a cleaning water tank that can prevent external impurities from contaminating the tank without affecting its use and that occupies little space, in light of the current state of the technology.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problem is as follows: a cleaning water tank, comprising a tank body with an open top, characterized in that: it further comprises two sets of cover plate assemblies symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the tank body, each cover plate assembly comprising at least two folding plates that are hinged together in sequence, each folding plate being confined between the front and rear side walls inside the tank body and capable of being folded or unfolded relative to each other, so that the cleaning water tank has at least two states:

[0007] In the first state, the folding plates of both sets of cover plate assemblies are in a folded state and stand upright on the left and right sides inside the groove, respectively.

[0008] In the second state, the folded plates of both sets of cover assemblies are in the unfolded state and together cover the top opening of the groove.

[0009] To simplify the structure, there are two folding plates, referred to as the first folding plate and the second folding plate.

[0010] To facilitate folding and unfolding between the two folding plates, each of the cover plate assemblies also includes a limiting strip that can slide left and right in the groove.

[0011] The first side of the first folding plate is rotatably connected to the side of the groove body via a first rotating shaft;

[0012] The first side of the second folding plate is hinged to the second side of the first folding plate, and the second side of the second folding plate is rotatably connected to the limiting strip via a second pivot.

[0013] In order to enable the limiting strip to slide left and right within the groove, guide strips extending in the left and right direction are arranged on the front and rear side walls inside the groove, and the front and rear ends of the limiting strip have guide grooves that cooperate with the guide strips.

[0014] In order to automatically switch the two folding panels between folded and unfolded states, each of the cover plate assemblies also includes a drive component for driving the first rotating shaft to rotate.

[0015] To facilitate the installation of the drive component, the drive component is a motor, which is installed on the outside of the slot. The power output shaft of the drive component is coaxially connected to the first rotating shaft.

[0016] In order to cover the folded plate in the folded state and thus improve the aesthetics, the left and right sides of the top opening of the groove are provided with covering strips that extend in the front and back direction, corresponding to the cover plate assembly.

[0017] In the folded state, each of the folded panels is hidden directly below the corresponding shielding strip.

[0018] In order to expand the operating space of the platform connected to the slot, the folding plates of the cover assembly together form a storage platform when unfolded.

[0019] To ensure the stability of the storage platform, the folding panels are arranged horizontally in the unfolded state.

[0020] In order to combine the functions of cleaning and storage, the cleaning tank also has a third state;

[0021] In the third state, one set of the cover plate assemblies has its folded plates in a folded state, while the other set of the cover plate assemblies has its folded plates in an unfolded state.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the cover plate assembly is composed of at least two folding plates that are hinged in sequence, and the two sets of cover plate assemblies are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the tank. When the cleaning tank is in the first state, the folding plates of the two sets of cover plate assemblies are in the folded state and stand upright on the left and right sides inside the tank, which does not affect the use of the tank. When the cleaning tank is in the second state, the folding plates of the two sets of cover plate assemblies are in the unfolded state and together cover the top opening of the tank, preventing external impurities from contaminating the tank. Moreover, the above-mentioned cover plate assembly occupies little space. Attached Figure Description

However, the use of these terms is merely for the purpose of explanation and is based on the exemplary orientations shown in the accompanying drawings. Since the embodiments disclosed in this utility model can be arranged in different orientations, these terms indicating direction are for illustrative purposes only and should not be regarded as limitations. For example, "upper" and "lower" are not necessarily limited to directions opposite to or consistent with the direction of gravity.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 7 The image shows a preferred embodiment of the cleaning tank of this utility model. The cleaning tank includes a tank body 1 and a cover assembly 2.

[0033] The top of the tank 1 is open. Specifically, guide strips 11 extending in the left and right directions are arranged on the front and rear side walls inside the tank 1; and shielding strips 12 extending in the front and back directions are provided on the left and right sides of the top opening of the tank 1.

[0034] There are two sets of cover plate assemblies 2, each corresponding to one of the aforementioned shielding strips 12, and symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the groove 1. In this embodiment, each cover plate assembly 2 includes a limiting strip 21, a folding plate 22, and a driving component 23.

[0035] Specifically, the front and rear ends of the limiting strip 21 have guide grooves 211 that cooperate with the guide strip 11, thereby enabling the limiting strip 21 to slide left and right within the groove 1.

[0036] There are two folding plates 22, referred to as the first folding plate 22a and the second folding plate 22b respectively; the first side of the first folding plate 22a is rotatably connected to the side of the tank body 1 via a first pivot 221a extending in the front-back direction; the first side of the second folding plate 22b is hinged to the second side of the first folding plate 22a, and the second side of the second folding plate 22b is rotatably connected to the limiting strip 21 via a second pivot 221b extending in the front-back direction; each folding plate 22 is confined between the front and rear side walls inside the tank body 1.

[0037] The driving component 23 is a motor and is installed on the outside of the slot 1. The power output shaft of the driving component 23 is coaxially connected to the first rotating shaft 221a to drive the first rotating shaft 221a to rotate so that the first folding plate 22a and the second folding plate 22b are folded or unfolded relative to each other.

[0038] In the folded state, each folding plate 22 stands upright on the side of the groove 1 and is hidden directly below the corresponding shielding strip 12;

[0039] In the unfolded state, the folding panels 22 are arranged horizontally and together form a storage platform.

[0040] In this embodiment, by switching the folded or unfolded states of the two sets of cover assemblies 2, the above-mentioned cleaning tank has at least three states:

[0041] In the first state, such as Figure 1 As shown, the folding plates 22 of both sets of cover plate assemblies 2 are in a folded state and are respectively erected on the left and right sides inside the groove 1.

[0042] In the second state, such as Figure 6 As shown, the folding plates 22 of both sets of cover plate assemblies 2 are in the unfolded state and together cover the top opening of the groove 1;

[0043] In the third state, such as Figure 7 As shown, the folding plate 22 of one set of cover plate assemblies 2 is in a folded state, while the folding plate 22 of the other set of cover plate assemblies 2 is in an unfolded state.

[0044] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0045] (1) When the entire trough 1 needs to be used, simply switch the folding plates 22 of both sets of cover plate assemblies 2 to the folded state. At this time, as Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning tank is in the first state, and the folding plates 22 of the two sets of cover plate assemblies 2 are respectively erected on the left and right sides inside the tank body 1, and each folding plate 22 is hidden directly below the corresponding shielding strip 12 to ensure that the use of the tank body 1 is not affected.

[0046] (2) When the groove 1 is not needed, simply switch the folding plates 22 of both sets of cover plate assemblies 2 to the unfolded state. At this time, as Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning sink is in the second state. The folding plates 22 of the two sets of cover plate assemblies 2 together cover the top opening of the sink 1 to prevent external impurities from contaminating the sink 1. At the same time, since each folding plate 22 is arranged horizontally and together forms a storage platform, the user can place other utensils on the storage platform, thereby increasing the operating space of the countertop where the sink is connected.

[0047] (3) When the trough 1 needs to be used and there is an additional need for storage, simply switch the folding plate 22 of one set of cover plate assemblies 2 to the folded state, and switch the folding plate 22 of the other set of cover plate assemblies 2 to the unfolded state. At this time, as Figure 7 As shown, the washing tank is in the third state, where the user can use the half-open tank space 1 for washing, and at the same time use the storage platform above the other half-closed tank space 1 for storing items.
