Description

  The present invention relates to a bathroom basin provided detachably with respect to a wall surface in a bathroom, and a mounting table for bathroom equipment such as soap, shampoo, and rinse.

  On the wall surface of the washroom part of the conventional bathroom unit, a counter is projected integrally with the wall surface below the faucet, and on this counter, equipment such as soap, shampoo, and rinse used for bathing can be placed. It has become. Also, in these bathroom units, the depth of the wall counter above is expanded and a basin can be placed on top of this, and the basin can be used comfortably at the height of the bather sitting on a chair. You can also see what you can do. Furthermore, there are also provided a recess provided on the upper surface of the counter, and a wash basin is fitted in the recess so as to be detachable to improve the convenience of bathers (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-93258, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-161588).

  By the way, in apartment houses such as apartments and condominiums, in many cases, the residential area is small, so the installation space of the bathroom is naturally limited. In addition, the restrictions on the bathroom space are the same in a detached house built on a small land. For this reason, there is a need to effectively utilize a small washroom space in a small bathroom, but since each of the above-described conventional techniques has a structure in which a counter is integrally provided with a wall surface. There is a disadvantage that the space of the washing place is further narrowed.

  In order to eliminate the above drawbacks, there are also cases where the basin for the washbasin is configured to be freely housed on the wall of the bathroom. For example, a holding frame that can rotate approximately 90 degrees between the storage position of the bathroom wall surface and a horizontal position perpendicular to the wall surface is provided, and when using the basin, the holding frame is rotated to the horizontal position, A wash basin is placed thereon, and after use of the wash basin, the holding frame is rotated to return to the storage position (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-284453). However, since such a structure is complicated, there is a problem that the manufacturing cost increases. There is also a problem with the strength of the holding frame when a basin filled with water or hot water is placed on the holding frame.

In addition, there is also a basin that can be removed from the bathroom wall. For example, a washbasin stand is detachably fixed to a bathroom wall surface via a fixture, and the washbasin stand is configured to stand on the bathroom floor surface in use (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-318745). This type has no problem in terms of strength because the basin stand is self-supporting on the floor surface during use. However, since both the basin and the basin stand are indispensable, there is a problem that the space of the washing place is narrowed by the basin stand regardless of use or non-use.
