Patent number: 10844582Abstract: A farmhouse sink system with a rimless stainless steel sink comprises a cabinet assembly having a countertop mounted thereon. A farmhouse sink frame has a sink mounting aperture dimensioned to receive a rimless upper edge of the sink therein, such that the rimless upper edge of the stainless steel sink is coplanar with the top of the frame. A mounting assembly is attached to a portion of the stainless steel sink and is utilized to attach the stainless steel sink to a portion of the farmhouse sink frame. An upper interface is formed between the rimless upper edge of the stainless steel sink and the top surface of the farmhouse sink frame, and an upper seal is disposed therein. The farmhouse sink frame is mounted between the cabinet assembly and the countertop such that the stainless steel sink is operatively disposed below a sink access opening through the countertop.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2019Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Inventors: Mehmet Hocaoglu, Yavuz Hocaoglu
