Abstract
A dish washing aid device for segregating soapy dish water in a single basin kitchen sink, the device comprising a lower base portion adapted to seal with the bottom wall of the basin about a drain therein, the base portion having a water tight vertically adjustable swivel connection with an upper funnel-like portion serving as a diverter for rinse water and being adapted to be rotated to a position under the sink faucet so that the rinse water may be poured onto cleaned articles to rinse away the soapy water and diverted into the drain without diluting or draining the soapy water in which the remaining articles are soaking.
Claims8
In a dishwashing aid device of the type adapted to be placed in a basin of a kitchen sink to isolate dish cleaning fluid solution from the drain in the bottom of the basin,
- a member having a shallow conical body with an eccentically positioned vertex bounding a fluid drain therein and having an annular outer rim and an inner tubular neck extending from said vertex,
- and a plurality of flutes extending radially from said neck, and splash guard means within said flutes each comprising a pair of ramp walls converging upwardly into a peak and one of said walls extending at a small angle toward said rim and the other of said ramp walls extending toward said neck at a steep angle.
In a dishwashing aid device of the type adapted to be placed in the basin of a kitchen sink to isolate dish cleaning solution from the drain in the bottom of the basin,
- a member having a shallow conical body with an eccentrically positioned vertex bounding a fluid drain therein and having an annular flexible outer rim and an inner tubular neck extending from said vertex,
- and said member being one of a pair of identical members, and
- a sleeve coupling the tubular necks of said members coaxially, and
- one of said members being disposable to function in one position as a diverter at the upper end of said device for draining rinse water and being adapted to be upended and seated upon the bottom wall of the basin and thus operable as a support for the other of said identical members and in such latter position providing an extensive upwardly facing area for sustaining hydrostatic pressure of water in the basin thereabove.
