A sink includes a basin including a base wall and lateral walls adjoining the base wall. The basin includes a receiving area which is delimited by the base wall and the lateral walls. An insert plate separate from the basin is inserted into the receiving area and moved by a lifting device relative to the basin. The lifting device includes a lifting unit which is surrounded by an elastic sealing sleeve.

Systems, methods, and techniques for cleaning sinks and dishes are provided. In some embodiments, a cleaning system comprises at least one fluid supply, at least one opening in a side wall of a sink basin, and at least one nozzle positioned along an exterior of the sink basin. The nozzle is configured to receive fluid from the fluid supply, and dispense fluid through an opening in a side wall of the sink basin to an interior surface of the sink basin. In some embodiments, the nozzle is configured to dispense fluid to the interior of a sink basin, such that substantially all surfaces of the interior of the sink basin are covered with a thin layer of fluid. In some embodiments, nozzle dispensing angle, duration of a cleaning cycle, flow rate or amount of dispensing fluid, or activation of a cleaning cycle may be manually or automatically controlled.

A sink includes a basin including a bottom wall and adjoining side walls which delimit a receiving space. An insert plate separate from the basin is inserted into the receiving space, and a lifting apparatus moves the insert plate relative to the basin. The lifting apparatus includes a lifting unit with a lifting device to move the insert plate in a vertical direction. The lifting apparatus includes a tilting device configured to perform a tilting movement of the insert plate relative to a horizontal plane.

A sink includes a basin including a base wall having a drain opening for media to run out of the basin, and lateral walls adjoining the base wall. The basin includes a receiving area which is delimited by the base wall and the lateral walls. An insert plate separate from the basin is inserted into the receiving area and movable by a lifting apparatus relative to the basin. A closure apparatus is arranged on the insert plate and is configured to prevent media in the basin from running to the drain opening.
