Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a globe digester with which a digested material of uniform particles can be obtained. SOLUTION: An agitating means for agitating a material to be digested such as organic waste is installed rotatably and coaxially with a rotary shaft 20 of the globe digester 1 as the center. A pair of bilateral symmetrical agitating means 21a and a cantilever agitating means 21b are installed by fixing to the rotary shaft 20. By voluntarily rotating the agitating means simultaneously with rotation of the globe digester, the material to be digested is efficiently agitated to obtain the digested material of uniform particles.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an earth pot for digesting waste such as organic waste.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An earth pot is designed to pass steam through a spherical pot,
It is an apparatus for digesting waste such as organic waste while rotating while applying pressure, and is widely used for digesting waste. FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining both the conventional art and the present invention. As shown in FIG.
Are supported by a pair of main slide bearings 3 and 4 via a connecting member 2. A steam rotary joint 6 serving as a steam inlet / outlet is provided at one end of the main shaft 5, and a steam outlet 7 is provided inside the shuttle on the side of the main slide bearing 3.

Further, the rotational force of the drive motor 12 is transmitted to the main shaft 5 via a main gear 8, a pinion 9, an intermediate gear 10, and a pinion 11 connected to the drive motor 12, so that the earth pot 1 is rotated. Has become. Here, the drive motor 12, the slide bearings 14 and 15 of the shaft 13 connected to the intermediate gear 10, and the main slide bearing 3 are mounted on a pedestal 16, and the main slide bearing 4 and a slide bearing 17 described later are mounted and fixed on a pedestal 18. ing. In addition, the earth pot 1 has an inlet and outlet 1
9 is provided, and when it is located above the earth pot, it is an input port, and when it is located below, it is an outlet.

[0004] Here, a method of treating waste with the earth pot having the above configuration will be briefly described. First, the waste to be digested (the to-be-digested material) is charged into the earth pot 1 through the charging / discharging port 19. After being charged, the container is closed and steam is sent from the steam rotary joint 6, and the pressure inside the earth pot is increased by the steam blown out from the steam outlet 7. Thereafter, the earthen pot 1 is rotated to digest the supplied digested material while stirring, and when the digestion is completed, the digested organic waste and the like (hereinafter referred to as digested product) are discharged.

[0005]

By rotating the earth pot, it is possible to stir the material to be digested. However, depending on the material to be digested, stirring is not sufficiently performed, so that the digested material has a uniform size. In other words, it was found that the grains were not aligned. The present invention proposes an earth pot capable of further promoting agitation to obtain a cooked product having uniform grains.

[0006]

A stirring means for stirring the digest is provided rotatably coaxially with the rotating shaft of the earth pot. By rotating the stirring means simultaneously with the rotation of the earth pot, a uniform digestion of grains can be obtained.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS As shown in FIG. 1, a stirring means support shaft 20 supported coaxially through the main slide bearing 4 in the earth pot 1 described above is rotatably provided. The other end of the stirring means support shaft 20 may be open or supported.

The stirring means support shaft 20 has a stirring plate,
Stirring means 21a and 21b such as stirring blades are fixed. In these stirring means, a pair of stirring means 21a is fixed symmetrically left and right, and the stirring means 21b located at the center is fixed to a cantilever. The reason why the central stirring means 21b is fixed to the cantilever beam is to facilitate the introduction of the digested material from the charging / discharging port 19 and the discharge of the digested material.

Further, one end of the stirring means support shaft 20 is further supported by a slide bearing 17, and a sprocket 22 is attached to a shaft portion located between the main slide bearing 4 and the slide bearing 17, and a chain (not shown) is provided. By rotating the stirring means support shaft 20 by the conduction means, the digested material can be stirred. Furthermore, on the inner wall of the earth pot,
A plurality of crushing means 23 such as saw teeth for crushing the material to be digested when the earth pot 1 rotates are fixed.

[0010] The cooking material is put into an earth pot equipped with the stirring means and the earth cooking vessel is rotated. At the same time, the stirring means is rotated in the opposite direction to the earth pot to efficiently stir the cooking substance. And a cooked product having a uniform grain size was obtained. In addition, in addition to the above-mentioned reverse direction, by rotating or stopping the rotation speed of the earth pot in the same direction as the rotation direction of the earth pot, or by controlling the rotation speed and direction of the stirring means, The stirring mode can be changed according to the type of.

[0011]

The cooking pot of the present invention is provided with stirring means inside, so that the material to be digested is stirred at the same time as the rotation of the cooking pot, and a cooked product having uniform grains can be obtained.

Further, the rotational force of the drive motor 12 is transmitted to the main shaft 5 via a main gear 8, a pinion 9, an intermediate gear 10, and a pinion 11 connected to the drive motor 12, so that the earth pot 1 is rotated. Has become. Here, the drive motor 12, the slide bearings 14 and 15 of the shaft 13 connected to the intermediate gear 10, and the main slide bearing 3 are mounted on a pedestal 16, and the main slide bearing 4 and a slide bearing 17 described later are mounted and fixed on a pedestal 18. ing. Furthermore, the charged and outlet Earth kettle 1
A lid 19 is provided, and when the lid 19 is opened and located above the earth pot, it serves as an inlet, and when located below, it serves as an outlet.
