A sink system includes a sink basin and a discharge conduit coupled to the sink basin, which is positioned to expel fluid into the sink basin via an outlet thereof. The flow of fluid through the discharge conduit may be activated via a motion sensor or switch coupled directly to the basin or a spacer ring positioned between the basin and a countertop. Controls for adjusting the temperature and/or flow rate of fluid through the discharge conduit may also be coupled to the basin or a spacer ring positioned between the basin and the countertop, or alternatively, to a surface of the countertop. Methods of making and using sink systems are also provided.

A novel sink includes a sink body and a sink flat. The sink body comprises a bottom wall and a sink wall extending upward from and surrounding the bottom wall, an annular water flow channel is provided at a top portion of the sink wall, the annular water flow channel is provided with at least one water inlet hole communicated with an external water inlet pipe, and the bottom wall is provided with a drain hole. The sink flat is arranged above the sink body and comprises an annular flange panel and an insert portion extending downward along an inner wall of the flange panel, the insert portion extends into the sink body, an annular water outlet communicated with the water flow channel is formed between the insert portion and the sink wall, and the annular water outlet sprays water along an inner wall of the sink wall.

The invention relates to a method of making a sink comprising: cutting out material that will constitute a bottom of the sink; making a hole for a drain in the bottom of the sink; supporting the edges of the bottom of the sink on a flat support and applying a mechanical force on the rim of the hole for the drain in the bottom of the sink; subjecting the bottom of the sink to a gradual and stepwise heating such that the mechanical force applied deforms said surface; cooling a flat slab; placing additional flat slabs around the first slab, on the sides thereof, to constitute the sides of the sink; externally coating the assembly made with a reinforcement comprising resins, glass fiber, mineral fillers, etc.; and bonding the upper part of the assembly made with the countertop where the sink is located.

A portable campground sink. The portable campground sink includes a frame having at least one sidewall, wherein an interior portion of the frame is divided into a first section and a second section by a cross bar. A plurality of legs are removably affixed to the frame, wherein the plurality of legs extend perpendicularly away from the frame. A container having an upper compartment in liquid communication with a lower compartment is received by the frame such that the lower compartment lies within the first section. An outlet is disposed on the lower compartment can receive a hose thereon. An adaptor having an inlet that can receive the hose thereon can be removably secured within a sewer drain such that the contents of the lower compartment exit through the outlet, through the hose, into the inlet, and out of the adaptor into the sewer drain.
