Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of storage cabinet technology, specifically relating to a sink cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] In the kitchen, the sink cabinet plays a crucial role as a key component of the kitchen storage system. However, existing sink cabinet solutions still have the following shortcomings.
[0003] With limited countertop space, kitchen sinks often lack dedicated storage areas for small, frequently used items like dish dividers and small cleaning brushes. This leads to haphazard placement, affecting the overall tidiness of the kitchen and increasing the time spent searching for items. While wall-mounted racks, common in kitchens, offer some storage expansion, they have several drawbacks. These racks rely on the wall for support, using two fixed anchor points to mount a hanging rod, from which various accessories are suspended. Their depth utilization is extremely low, resulting in very limited storage capacity that cannot meet the ever-increasing storage needs of kitchens. Furthermore, the two-point connection between the rack and rod lacks stability, making it prone to wobbling or even tipping over when items are placed on it. This significantly limits the types of items that can be stored and makes it extremely inconvenient for users to retrieve items.
[0004] Furthermore, existing kitchen storage racks have significant drawbacks when handling items with water. Most kitchen racks are currently located above the countertop. When placing wet dishes or bowls, water drips directly onto the countertop, ruining its appearance and increasing cleaning workload, requiring frequent wiping. Placing wet items directly inside cabinets creates poor ventilation and high humidity, easily leading to bacterial growth and affecting the hygiene of the items and the health of the user. On the other hand, placing wet items on the countertop occupies valuable countertop space and detracts from the overall aesthetics of the kitchen layout.
[0005] Therefore, it is evident that rationally planning the structure of the sink cabinet and optimizing its storage function and usage are of paramount importance for improving the daily kitchen experience and solving existing storage problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problems of existing sink cabinets and provide a sink cabinet.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A sink cabinet includes a cabinet body, a counter on the cabinet body, and a recessed functional slot. The counter has an installation opening, and the functional slot is detachably mounted on the counter through the installation opening.
[0009] This utility model of a sink cabinet provides dedicated storage space through a recessed functional slot, and also utilizes the cabinet structure to achieve efficient use of three-dimensional space, improving space utilization and storage capacity. In terms of user experience, the recessed functional slot is stably embedded in the countertop, with stability far exceeding that of movable wall-mounted racks, expanding the range of items that can be placed, and conforming to ergonomic design for convenient access to items. Addressing the challenge of handling water-containing items, the functional slot can collect dripping water, preventing countertop contamination. Its good ventilation or drainage design reduces bacterial growth and ensures hygiene. At the same time, utilizing the three-dimensional space of the sink cabinet does not require occupying a large countertop space, balancing practicality and aesthetics.
[0010] Furthermore, the functional slot is located in the middle of the counter. The counter includes a first support platform and a second support platform, which are located on opposite sides of the counter, and a preset distance is maintained between the first and second support platforms to form the mounting opening. In this design, the functional slot is located in the middle, making it convenient for users to retrieve and place items from all directions, resulting in the most convenient operation. This design is particularly suitable for sink cabinets with double sinks.
[0011] Alternatively, the functional slots are located on at least one side of the countertop. Compared to the above solution, this solution is more suitable for sink cabinets with a single sink.
[0012] Furthermore, the counter is provided with support steps on opposite sides of the mounting opening, and the functional slot abuts against the support steps to facilitate the placement and removal of the functional slot.
[0013] Furthermore, the functional slot includes a storage tray with a double-layer structure. The inner layer is made of wood, and the outer layer is edged with metal. Its structure is very simple, facilitating the placement of items alone or use with a drain assembly to achieve a draining function. The metal edge prevents water from directly contacting the wooden board of the storage box, avoiding problems such as deformation and mold growth over time, thus extending the lifespan of the storage box.
[0014] Furthermore, the mounting opening extends through the front and rear sides of the counter, and supporting steps are formed at the upper ends of the front and rear sides of the cabinet. The functional slot includes a first receiving portion and a second receiving portion connected vertically. The first receiving portion protrudes radially from the second receiving portion to form a connecting protrusion, and the functional slot abuts against the supporting steps through the connecting protrusion. In this design, the structural design of the functional slot and mounting opening is simple and easy to process and assemble. Alternatively, the front end of the first receiving portion protrudes radially from the second receiving portion to form a connecting protrusion, and abuts against the supporting steps through the connecting protrusion. The rear opening of the cabinet has a clearance opening adapted to the second receiving portion, and the second receiving portion abuts against the clearance opening, and the second receiving portion is flush with the rear side of the cabinet. Compared with the above solutions, this solution can increase the receiving space of the functional slot.
[0015] Furthermore, the functional slots are arranged along the width direction of the counter.
[0016] Furthermore, the upper side of the inner cavity of the storage tank is provided with an installation step, and the edge of the drain assembly abuts against the installation step.
[0017] The functional slot is provided with baffles to divide the internal space into at least two drainage zones. The baffles are integrally formed with the functional slot. Alternatively, the baffles can be detachably installed on the storage slot body.
[0018] Furthermore, the functional slot also includes a drain assembly, which is detachably disposed within the storage slot. This solution adds a drain assembly to effectively isolate moisture from the items.
[0019] Furthermore, the draining component is detachably disposed within the storage tank, and an installation step is provided on the upper side of the inner cavity of the storage tank, with the edge of the draining component abutting against the installation step. Attached Figure Description
