Disclosed herein is a sink incorporating dishwasher functionalities. The sink is mounted, or otherwise installed, on a kitchen countertop and includes a basin and a cover allowing to fluidly seal the basin from above. According to some embodiments of the sink, at least one portion of the walls of the basin, extending along two peripheral directions, is double walled, having an outer wall and an inner wall, such as to define an inner chamber there between. The inner chamber is controllably fluidly coupled to a pressurized fluid source and has apertures on the inner wall for ejecting fluid jets into the basin. In some embodiments of the sink, the cover is a shutter.

The invention relates to Nozzle, comprising a liquid inlet channel (LIN) for water or other liquid, the liquid inlet channel having an exit mouth (LINM) for letting liquid out from the liquid inlet channel, a pressurized air inlet channel (AIN) having an exit mouth (AINM) for letting pressurized air out from the pressurized air inlet channel (AIN). In the invention the liquid inlet channel (LIN) and pressurized air inlet channel (AIN) are positioned in such way that the pressurized air inlet channel (AIN) at least partially surrounds the liquid inlet channel (LIN) so as to create mist from exiting liquid and exiting pressurized air.

An undermount sink system is provided for mounting beneath a countertop having an upper counter surface. The undermount 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 discharge conduit and basin are configured to mount to the countertop entirely below the upper counter surface. 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 the 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 undermount sink systems are also provided.

A rinsing lavatory includes a basin, at least one tube, and at least one valve. The basin includes at least a first side and a second side. The at least one tube connects a water supply to a first plurality of nozzles on the first side of the basin and a second plurality of nozzles on a second side of the basin. The at least one valve is configured to open the first plurality of nozzles or the second plurality of nozzles to provide rinsing water to the first side of the basin or the second side of the basin in response to an input signal.
