System combining dental water pic, soap dispenser, mouthwash dispenser, and spray faucet

Abstract

The present invention provides a system combining a dental water pic, a mouthwash dispenser, a soap dispenser and a spray faucet unit. The water pic, mouthwash dispenser and soap dispenser are connected to a conventional sink unit having a traditional spray faucet system. The water pic is connected to a diverter valve such that the temperature of the water expelled by the dental pic is controlled by the user. The water pic is attached to the sink via extractable tubing, allowing a user to extend the dental pic from the sink. The mouthwash and soap dispensers have under-sink storage units in order to prevent the need for storage of containers between uses. The sink system provides an advantage in that it combines various hygiene tools, resulting in a more comprehensive sink unit. The water pic attachments can be used to clean braces, dentures and jewelry, among other things.

1 . A combination sink for permitting a user to utilize a faucet and a water pic from a common user-controlled water supply, comprising: 
 a combination sink housing having an insert adapted to receive a faucet, first and second inserts adapted to receive dispensers and a drain;    a water pic coupled to said housing at said first insert, and coupled to said water supply for receiving water therefrom;    at least one dispenser, coupled to said housing at said second insert, for dispensing a liquid selected from the group consisting of a mouthwash and a soap; and    a faucet coupled to said housing at said faucet insert, and coupled to said water supply for receiving water therefrom.    
   
   
       2 . A system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said water supply comprises hot and cold water sources, and further comprising means for regulating water temperature, coupled to said hot and cold water sources and to said water pic, for permitting a user to temperature control water emitted by said water pic.  
   
   
       3 . A system as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said temperature regulation means comprises a diverter valve.  
   
   
       4 . A system as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said diverter valve is positioned between said faucet and said housing and coupled to each, and is adapted to receive water from said hot and cold water sources and to provide temperature regulated water to said faucet and said water pic.  
   
   
       5 . A system as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said diverter valve is positioned between said housing and said hot and cold water sources and coupled to each, and is adapted to receive water from said hot and cold water sources and to provide temperature regulated water to said faucet or to said water pic.  
   
   
       6 . A system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said water pic is extractable from said sink unit.  
   
   
       7 . A system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said water pic further comprises means for controlling the rate of water flow.  
   
   
       8 . A system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said faucet further comprises a means for creating a spray flow.  
   
   
       9 . A system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said water pic is coupled to said sink housing by at least one insert having a substantially threaded end.  
   
   
       10 . A system as recited in  claim 9 , wherein said at least one insert includes a lip that rests on a horizontal surface of said housing.  
   
   
       11 . A system as recited in  claim 10 , wherein said lip comprises a chamfered edge.  
   
   
       12 . A system as recited in  claim 1 , further comprising a storage container, coupled to said at least one dispenser, for storing said liquid.  
   
   
       13 . A system as recited in  claim 1 , further comprising a second dispenser, coupled to said housing at either or both of said first or second inserts, adapted to receive a liquid.  
   
   
       14 . A system for creating a combination sink for permitting a user to utilize a faucet and a water pic from a common user-controlled water supply, comprising: 
 combination sink housing means having an insert to receive a faucet, first and second inserts to receive dispensers, and a drain;    water pic means coupled to said housing at said first insert, and coupled to said water supply to receive water therefrom;    dispenser means, coupled to said housing at said second insert, to dispense a liquid selected from the group consisting of a mouthwash and a soap; and    water output means coupled to said housing at said faucet insert, and coupled to said water supply to receive water therefrom.
