Abstract

The present invention relates to a self-cleaning sink, comprising a plurality of water spray injectors distributed on inner surface under an upper rim of the sink for delivering pressurized water to an inner bowl of the sink and a plurality of conduits connecting a reservoir containing a cleaning liquid to the sink. The sink further comprises an activation control operable for pumping a specific quantity of the cleaning liquid through one or more of the conduits and mixing with pressurized water delivered via the plurality of water spray injectors for cleaning the inner bowl of the sink.

Claims

1 . A self-cleaning sink, comprising:
 a plurality of water spray injectors substantially distributed under an upper rim of the sink, adapted for delivering pressurized water to an inner bowl of the sink;   an actuator, adapted for diverting water flow from a faucet to the plurality of water spray injectors;   a plurality of conduits, in fluid connection with a reservoir holding a cleaning liquid and the sink;   an activation control, adapted for pumping a predefined amount of the cleaning liquid received via at least one of the plurality of conduits delivered to the inner bowl via the plurality of water spray injectors.   
     
     
         2 . The sink of  claim 1 , further comprises a plurality of hollow nipples adapted to connect the plurality of conduits to the sink. 
     
     
         3 . The sink of  claim 1 , further comprises a holder adapted to securely hold the reservoir, wherein the holder is mounted to a support wall or to an under body of the sink. 
     
     
         4 . The sink of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of conduits comprises a plurality of rubber hoses. 
     
     
         5 . The sink of  claim 1 , wherein the activation control or actuator comprises a button or a lever or a switch. 
     
     
         6 . The sink of  claim 1 , wherein the activation control is coupled to an electric pump or mechanical pump. 
     
     
         7 . The sink of  claim 1 , wherein the reservoir comprises a stopper forming an air tight seal. 
     
     
         8 . The sink of  claim 7 , wherein the stopper comprises a multitude of openings for holding the plurality of conduits. 
     
     
         9 . The sink of  claim 1 , wherein a first end of the first conduit is connected to the activation control and the second end is connected to the interior of the reservoir tank, without contacting the cleaning fluid. 
     
     
         10 . The sink of  claim 1 , wherein a first of the second conduit is connected to the interior of the reservoir tank, contacting the cleaning fluid and second end is connected to the exterior of the upper rim of the sink. 
     
     
         11 . The sink of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of water spray injectors mix the cleaning fluid with water and deliver to the interior surface of the sink.
