Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simply install and remove the sink by constructing the sink by an assembly of a sink main body, a tap and a strut for supporting the tap. SOLUTION: The bottom wall 6 of a water storing part 7 of a sink main body 1 is formed in a position higher than the ground surface. A drain hose 9 is connected to a drain hole 8 provided in the bottom wall 6, and a strut 13 higher than the sink main body 1 is provided on the sink main body 1. Further, a tap 16 is fitted to the upper part of the strut 13 in such a manner as to face the upper side of the water storing part 7, and a connecting pipe 17 connected to the tap 16 is laid along the strut 13. The thus constructed sink body is installed in a position where a connecting port 22 of the existing city water pipe 21 is placed. In removal, in the case where the connecting pipe 17 and the city water pipe 21 are connected to each other by adhesion, one of the pipes is cut to separate the pipes, and in the case where they are connected by a coupling, the coupling is disconnected to separate the pipes. Accordingly, the sink body can be carried to an area where the connecting port of the city water pipe is placed and installed, and if needed, it can be removed to another place.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable sink which can be easily installed in a place where a water supply facility such as a construction site is inadequate.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art At a building site or the like, a simple water supply system is provided in which a faucet is attached to a support standing on the ground and a water pipe is connected to the faucet.

[0003] This simple water supply system is used for supplying water required for construction work and for cleaning tools and bodies.

[0004]

However, since the above-mentioned water supply system is a simple one in which a faucet is attached to a support standing on the ground, water coming out of the faucet falls directly on the ground, so The work site may be contaminated with mud when people walk or vehicles pass on the wet ground.

[0005] As described above, it is not desirable from the viewpoint of working environment preservation that the surroundings of the faucet become wet or the work site becomes dirty with mud.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a portable sink that can be brought into a work site, installed easily, and easily removed in order to protect the work environment.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a bottom surface of a water reservoir of a sink body is formed at a position higher than a ground surface, and a drain hole provided on the bottom surface is provided with a drain hole. A hose is connected, a post higher than the sink body is attached to the sink body, a faucet is attached to the upper portion of the post so as to face the water reservoir, and a connecting pipe connected to the faucet is placed along the post. The configuration is as follows.
It should be noted that the above-mentioned support may be configured to be detachably attached to the sink body.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2,
The sink body 1 of the portable sink according to the embodiment has a grounding flange 3 formed at a lower end of four outer walls 2 and a horizontal upper end surface 4 having a required width formed at an upper end of the outer wall 2. Four inner side walls 5 facing the outer side wall 2 are formed inside the upper end surface 4, and a bottom wall 6 is formed at the lower end of the inner side wall 5. The height of the bottom wall 6 is, as shown in FIG.
Is formed at a position higher by about half the height of.

The inner wall 5 and the bottom wall 6 form a water reservoir 7. A drain hole 8 is provided in the bottom wall 6 of the water reservoir 7, and a bellows-shaped drain hose 9 is connected to the drain hole 8. The drain hose 9 is drawn out through a hole 11 provided in the outer wall 2.

A vertical mounting groove 12 is formed in the outer wall 2 forming the back surface of the sink body 1, and a lower end of a column 13 is attached to the mounting groove 12 so as to be detachable by a bolt / nut 14. Mounted. The support column 13 has a U-shaped cross section, and has a groove 15 facing the rear side. The upper end of the support column 13 reaches a required height above the sink body 1, and a faucet 16 is attached to the front surface of the upper end portion. Faucet 16
Is mounted so that the discharge port faces above the water reservoir 7.
The support 13 is fixed by an elbow 10 screwed from the back. The upper end of the connection pipe 17 is connected to the lower end of the elbow 10.

The lower end of the connection pipe 17 reaches a position close to the ground collar 3 and is opened, and faces the upper part of the notch 19 formed in the ground collar 3.

The above-mentioned sink body 1 and support 13
Is made of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), has the required strength, and is relatively light and portable.

The portable sink according to the embodiment is as described above, and is transported to the site in an assembled state as shown in FIG. 1, or is transported to the site in a state where the sink body 1 and the support 13 are disassembled and assembled. The existing water pipe 21
The connection port 22 is inserted into the notch 19. The lower end of the connection pipe 17 is the connection port 2
2 and connected with an adhesive and sealed.

Note that a joint may be provided at the lower end of the connection pipe 17 and connected to the water pipe 21 by the joint. The drain hose 9 is pulled out of the hole 11 and inserted into a suitable drain 27.

When the faucet 16 is operated by opening the main plug of the water pipe 21 with the above-described installation, water falls into the water reservoir 7 and is discharged from the drain hole 8 to the drain 27 through the drain hose 9. . Since the water reservoir 7 has the inner wall 5 of a required height, the water dropped on the bottom wall 6 is prevented from jumping out of the sink body 1.

In order to fix the sink body 1 to the ground, several holes 28 (see FIG. 1) are provided in the connection flange 3.
An anchor 29 may be driven into the hole 28.

When the portable sink is removed, if the connecting pipe 17 and the water pipe 21 are connected by bonding, one of them is cut and separated, and when the connecting pipe 17 is connected by a joint, Disconnect and disconnect the joint.

[0018]

As described above, since the present invention is constituted by the assembly of the sink body and the faucet and the supporting column for supporting the faucet, the present invention is carried and installed at a portion having a water pipe connection port, and is unnecessary. Can be removed and relocated to another location.

Further, since the water reservoir and the drain hose are provided, water flowing out of the faucet does not fall to the ground. For this reason, there is no need to wet the ground of the site, and there is no dispersion of mud, so that the work environment of the site can be preserved.

Further, since the bottom surface of the water reservoir is higher than the ground contact surface, a sufficient drainage gradient can be provided between the water reservoir and the drainage channel.

The use of FRP for the sink body and the struts makes it possible to obtain the required strength and to reduce the weight, which is convenient for transportation.
