Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a washbasin, particularly a washbasin with a large surface area.

Conventionally used wash basins consisting of a counter and a bowl tend to have water droplets scattered around them when in use, which tends to be even more problematic especially when the user is physically disabled or sick. It is desirable to use a basin with a large area. By the way, when using a washbasin with a large area, if the basin is made wide enough to accommodate the entire basin, it takes time to supply water to the basin, and in addition, an unnecessary amount of water tends to accumulate, resulting in a lot of waste. Furthermore, if the counter area surrounding the pot part is widened, it is difficult to collect water droplets without leaking into the pot part, and water droplets tend to remain on the counter.

The present invention was devised in view of the above circumstances, and is a washbasin with a wide flat area, which does not use more water than necessary, and which prevents water droplets from scattering to the outside of the washbasin when used. To provide a washbasin which can prevent water from leaking and collect everything into a bowl part. That is, in a washbasin that has a counter part and a recessed part in the counter part to form a bowl part, the bowl part is provided offset so as to be close to at least a part of the outer edge of the counter part, and the counter part has a recessed part formed at an arbitrary position. This wash basin is characterized in that a groove is provided in the basin toward the bowl, the counter is inclined toward the groove, and the counter as a whole is tilted toward the bowl.

Examples will be described according to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view of the washbasin according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view.
The washbasin 1 is composed of a counter part 2 and a bowl part 3 provided by recessing the counter part 2. The bowl part 3 is provided close to at least a part of the outer edge 4 of the washbasin 1, that is, the user's side of the washbasin, and at a position offset to one side when viewed from the entire counter part 2. The pot part 3 may have any shape other than the planar oval shape as in this example, and the counter part 2 has a planar area of 1 part of the pot part 3.
Make it about 5 times the size. The width of the basin part 3 from the basin part 3 to the outer edge 4 of the basin is narrow in the front part when viewed from the side of the basin user, and is approximately 1.5 to 5 times narrower in other parts, that is, on both sides of the basin part.
Further, the counter part 2 is provided in a widened manner at the rear part of the pot part. Grooves 5 and 5' extending from near the outer edge 4 to the pot part 3 are provided at appropriate positions on the counter part 2. Any number of grooves 5, 5' may be provided, but usually about 2 to 3 grooves are provided. The counter part 2 is made to be inclined towards the grooves 5, 5', and the counter part 2 as a whole is made to be inclined towards the pot part 3. Pot part 3
is formed such that its upper edge 6 is the lowest part on the upper surface of the washbasin 1. Since the bowl part 3 is provided close to the user's side of the counter part 2, the counter part 2 has a steep angle on the user's side as shown in FIG. 2, and is formed so as to surround the bowl part 3. It can prevent water droplets from scattering during use.
Further, the remaining part of the counter part 2 behind the pot part 3 forms a gentle slope so that water droplets scattered behind the pot part 3 can be collected in the pot part 3 through the grooves 5 and 5'.

The washbasin of this invention is effective when attached to a washbasin unit 7 that covers a toilet installed in a hospital room, etc., and used as a rotatable washbasin. When providing a toilet and wash basin in a hospital room with limited space,
In order to secure space, shield the toilet bowl, and install it without causing discomfort, the toilet bowl is stored inside as shown in Figure 3, and the basin can be rotated as necessary.
A washbasin unit 7 is used to secure the usable space for the toilet bowl. The washbasin unit 7 consists of a washbasin 1, a unit case 8, and a mirror part 9, and a toilet bowl 10 is housed in the lower part. In order to shield the toilet bowl 10, supply pipes, drain pipes, etc., there is a need for a washbasin that has a large surface area and that does not cause water droplets to scatter during use. The washbasin of the present invention can be made into a washbasin with a large enough area to cover a toilet bowl, etc., and the basin can be placed closer to the user's side.
In addition, since the entire counter part is tilted toward the pot part, the counter part on the user's side is formed to surround the pot part, and the rear counter part catches the scattered water droplets and collects them all into the pot part. be able to. Incidentally, if necessary, if the entire circumference or a part of the outer circumferential end of the counter part is raised from the counter part to form an upright part 12, the effect of preventing splashing can be further improved. Further, the counter part and the pot part may be provided as one unit, but the counter part and the pot part may be separately prepared and used in combination. Further, the material may be made of ceramic or synthetic resin.

As described above, according to the present invention, the basin can be constructed with a large flat area, so that even a user with a physical disability can use the basin without getting the area around the basin wet. In addition, the counter part surrounds the bowl part and the basin is sloped so that it reaches the bowl part, so that the water droplets etc. that are scattered are caught inside the washbasin. The objective is to provide an effective washbasin that can remove water without leaking.
