Abstract
A sink includes a bottom surface forming an opening for drainage therein, a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a third sidewall, and a fourth sidewall, each of which is extended from the bottom surface, and a ledge fixedly attached to top ends of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls. The bottom surface and the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls have a same thickness, and a thickness of the ledge is different from the thickness of the bottom surface.

A sink comprising:
- a bottom surface forming an opening for drainage therein;
- a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a third sidewall, and a fourth sidewall, each of which is extended from the bottom surface;
- and
- a ledge fixedly attached to top ends of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls,
- wherein the bottom surface and the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls have a same thickness, and
- wherein a thickness of the ledge is different from the thickness of the bottom surface.
A method for manufacturing a sink, the method comprising:
- cutting a first metal to form a bottom surface, a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a third sidewall, and a fourth sidewall;
- cutting an opening for drainage in the bottom surface;
- folding boundaries between the bottom surface and each of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls;
- welding an edge of each pair of adjacent two sidewalls of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls so as to make the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls upright from the bottom surface;
- welding four pieces of a second metal different from the first metal used in the cutting to make a ledge having first, second, third, and fourth parts;
- and
- welding the ledge to top ends of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls,
- wherein the bottom surface and the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls have a same thickness, and
- wherein a thickness of the ledge is different from the thickness of the bottom surface.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method for manufacturing a sink, the method comprising:
- cutting a first metal to form a bottom surface, a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a third sidewall, and a fourth sidewall;
- cutting an opening for drainage in the bottom surface;
- folding boundaries between the bottom surface and each of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls;
- welding an edge of each pair of adjacent two sidewalls of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls so as to make the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls upright from the bottom surface;
- welding four pieces of a second metal to make a ledge having first, second, third, and fourth parts;
- and
- welding the ledge to top ends of the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls,
- wherein the bottom surface and the first, second, third, and fourth sidewalls have a same thickness, and
- wherein a thickness of the ledge is different from the thickness of the bottom surface.
