  • Patent number: 5867847
    Abstract: The height adjustable sink and vanity includes a fixed base portion that preferably includes two doors on the front that swing open to the sides. The cabinet is freestanding, but has no supporting surfaces on the front portion. The sink and countertop are vertically adjustable as a unit, with a standpipe below the sink that easily accommodates the adjustability. Projecting downward from the right and left edges of the countertop are panels that help prevent fingers and other objects from being pinched between the adjustable countertop portion and an adjacent, fixed surface. A remote control unit may be located on the end of a cord connected to a small electric motor that moves the unit up and down, depending on the selection made on the remote control unit.
