Definitions

  • the invention concerns a device that can be installed in domestic kitchens to easily recuperate used water and oil by deviating them from the main waste stream to separate tanks.
  • Oil is used to fry food and other types of animal and vegetables' fats are not always disposed of properly.
  • Water used for washing vegetables and cooking pasta can be effectively saved and reused in several ways, having a positive impact on the environment and cost-saving benefits.
  • Drinkable water is a precious resource and it is not largely available in several areas so preventing its depletion, for instance by watering plants instead of throwing it away, could be extremely beneficial for our society.
  • Used vegetables and animals'oils should not be disposed in the general collection systems but instead be gathered in closed containers and disposed of in specific ecological stations.
  • the purpose of the invention is to achieve a device for separating water and oil easily from the main waste stream, in a practical, functional, compact way and can be used in a condition of absolute safety by the user.
  • the knob or the lever can be located remotely from the device having cables to operate the valve in the device.
  • the device comprises a rotating valve which is able to connect inlet and outlet ports and closing other ports.
  • the actuations of the valve are made by cables which are pulled or released by a knob or of a lever.
  • the housing of the valve can be easily connected to the existing piping system under the sink.
  • the housing consists of a chamber containing a rotating valve, four ports: one inlet, one main outlet and two secondary outlets, and an embodied separate closing cover.
  • the main outlet is closed and only the left secondary outlet is open for the flow.
  • the assembled device is a leak-free unit once installed with all the ports connected to the piping of the sink and to the flexibles hoses of two containers.
  • the two cables end in a knob which can be in several positions, as for instance, on the top of the sink or in another piece of furniture.
  • the knob has three signs to indicate the corresponding positions of the valve: neutral for the main outlet, and the remaining others for secondary port outlet left and secondary port outlet right.
  • a device (13) to easily separate water and oil from the main waste stream can be associated with existing piping under the sink.
  • the device (13) is a compact unit allowing one easy installation and comprises a main housing body (1), a cover (2), a valve control wheel (3), fasteners (4), wires (5), cable guides (6).
  • a rotating valve (7) works against a cylindrical surface (12) and can be turned to close and unclose the orifices that connect the ports.
  • Another position (16) for instance by rotating the valve of 70 degree, clock wise, makes the flow to go from the inlet (11) to the secondary outlet to the left (10); the valve (7) keeps closed the other two ports, the main outlet (9) and the secondary outlet on the right (8).
  • the valve control wheel (3) rotates when pulled by the wires (5) which have pins (14) at their ends.
  • the two wires are guided by the flexible sheaths (6).
  • the actuation of the valve (7) can be operated by a single wire providing the valve with a spring to make it return to neutral position.
  • the cover instead of being closed by four fasteners, i.e. bolts, could be designed with an integral thread to be engaged with the housing body (1).
  • fasteners i.e. bolts
  • the shape of the housing body (1) and of the rotating valve (7) can be replaced by other function equivalent elements.
  • Another variant consists of an automatic actuation of the rotating valve (7) by means of an electrical motor piloted by signals from sensors which detect the type of fluids.
