BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to kitchen equipment such as sinks and stoves.

0002

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, sinks, stoves, etc. used in kitchens have become increasingly integrated.

[0003] A conventional kitchen device will be explained below with reference to FIG. In the figure, 1 is the sink, 2 is the stove, 3 is the hood installed above the stove, and 4 is the sink 1
, a worktop on which a stove 2 is disposed, 5 a storage shelf provided above the worktop 4, and 6 a storage shelf provided below the worktop.

[0004] Here, the sink 1, stove 2, worktop 4, and storage shelf 6 are integrally formed, and together with the hood 3 and the like constitute a kitchen device.

[0005]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the above structure, a cooking space is provided between the stove and the sink.

[0006] If this space is widened, cooking will be easier, but the distance between the stove and the sink will be large.
This method has disadvantages in that the amount of movement of the operator between the stove and the sink increases, increasing the burden on the operator and increasing the space of the entire apparatus.

On the other hand, if this space is made narrow, the cooking space becomes narrow and cooking becomes difficult.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a kitchen device that does not take up much space, is easy to use, and is easy to cook.

[0009]

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention configures a sink in one protrusion of a flat substantially U-shaped worktop, and a cooking surface in the other protrusion. An auxiliary sink that can be freely pulled out is provided below the sink.

0010

[Operation] With the above configuration, even when the worker is working in front of the sink, he or she can head toward the cooking table by simply turning around.

Furthermore, by providing an auxiliary sink, the space available for washing can be increased or decreased depending on the amount of dishes, etc. to be washed.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 to 3, reference numeral 101 denotes a first protrusion 103- forming a U-shaped worktop 103.
Sink placed on 1, 102-1 is worktop 1
This is a stove disposed on the second protrusion 103-2 forming the 03. Further, the space between the first protrusion 103-1 and the second protrusion 103-2 is large enough to accommodate one person.

[0014] Reference numeral 102 denotes a cooking surface, and as described above, a stove is provided thereon. Reference numeral 104 denotes a cart that is provided below the first protrusion and whose side surfaces are made to have the same shape as the first protrusion.

[0015] An auxiliary sink 110 is provided on the upper surface of this truck. 105 is a storage space provided below the second protrusion 103-2.

Reference numeral 106 denotes a storage space provided below the back surface of the worktop. 107 is work top 10
3 is a storage shelf that is attached to the upper wall surface and has a side edge line 111 formed along a side edge line 112 of the worktop 103.

Furthermore, the storage shelf 107 is installed so as to be located approximately at the line of sight of a person when standing upright.

[0018] Further, cooking utensils such as an oven may be stored in this storage shelf. 108 and 109 are sinks 101
, a drain pipe for discharging water etc. from the auxiliary 110 to the outside,
The drain pipe 108 drains water etc. from the sink 101, and the drain pipe 109 drains water etc. from the auxiliary sink 110.

The waste water from the drain pipes 108 and 109 is discharged to the outside from one drain pipe 113 via a collecting pipe 114.

[0020] In this embodiment, the drain pipes 108, 1
09 and 113 use a bellows tube that can be expanded and contracted.

[0021] Casters 115 are attached to each of the four corners of the lower surface of the cart 104, and allow the cart to be pulled out.

[0022] According to the kitchen device of this embodiment, since it is formed in a substantially U-shape, even when working toward the sink, the worker can face the cooking surface by simply turning around 180 degrees. be able to work.

The trolley 104 installed below the first protrusion 103-1 is equipped with casters, so it can be easily pulled out by simply pulling the trolley toward you.
It becomes possible to take out the auxiliary sink, and it becomes possible to take up washing space according to the amount of dishes, etc. to be washed.

Furthermore, by using a bellows pipe as the drain pipe 109, the position of the auxiliary sink can be moved. It goes without saying that this drain pipe is not limited to a bellows pipe.

[0025]

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, even when the worker is working toward the sink, the worker can face the cooking surface by simply turning around 180 degrees, reducing the burden on the worker. At the same time, it is possible to increase the space on the cooking surface.

Furthermore, since an auxiliary sink is provided, the washing space can be set according to the amount of dishes, etc. to be washed.
