And control means 8 for controlling the operation of the two means 2 to 4. The control means 8 has an algorithm means for setting the electric power to a value lower than the electric energy for processing and dissolving ordinary garbage. Here, at least one of the heating means 2, the stirring means 3, and the ventilation means 4 so as to be able to suppress power consumption lower than in the normal operation mode in which garbage is processed with the normal power consumption and the normal operation mode. A power saving operation mode for controlling garbage by controlling one means;
Power saving switch means 7 for shifting from the normal operation mode to the power saving operation mode.

FIG. 4 shows an example of a time chart in the normal operation mode. In the example of FIG. 4, for example, the heating means 2 is automatically turned on / off at 10 ° C., stirring is periodically performed for only 1 minute every 15 minutes, and ventilation is performed 100% at the same time when the power is turned on. If the power saving switch means 7 determines that the power consumption is 300 yen per month by the switch function, for the setting action,
A transition is made to a power saving operation mode in which at least one of the heating means 2, the stirring means 3, and the ventilation means 4 is controlled to reduce the total power consumption.

The control means 8 of the present example turns on / off the three means systems (heating means 2, stirring means 3, ventilation means 4) for matching the monthly power amount set in advance.
The purpose is to determine the frequency and timing of the OFF, and drive the vehicle using the algorithm. Then, in the algorithm, for example, (heating W1 x energizing time per month x
(Electricity cost converted value) 10 (stirring W2 x energized time per month x electricity cost converted value) + (ventilation W3 x energized time per month x electricity cost converted value) = For example, the formula of 300 yen / month is set, and the electric power is controlled. To do.

When the operation mode is shifted to the power saving operation mode by the power saving switch means 7, the control means 8 determines the frequency of ON / OFF of the heating means 2 as shown in FIG. Control to match. As a result, it is possible to achieve the target amount of electricity per month, reduce the electricity bill that users are worried about, and perform reasonable operation control so that the electricity bill does not match the highest performance it can. In particular, in the recent trend of large-capacity processing, the power consumption has been increased in accordance with the highest performance. However, the frequency of the heating means 2 is suppressed to meet the predetermined power consumption (electricity bill). This makes it possible to easily and reliably realize the electricity bill as expected by the user.

The garbage processing apparatus 6 of this embodiment shows a case where the heating means 2, the stirring means 3 and the ventilation means 4 are provided, respectively, and at least one of these three means 2 to 4 is provided. What is necessary is just to have a means.

FIG. 6 shows an example in which the power consumption is reduced by controlling the temperature of the heating means 2 in the power saving operation mode. The method of controlling the temperature of the heating means 2 is generally such that a bimetal is buried in a heater wire, and ON / OF is performed at a predetermined temperature of the bimetal.
There are a method of repeating F and a method of externally inserting a thermistor 23 near the heater wire and controlling the signal to a target value by a CPU or the like. In the example of FIG. 6, the thermistor 23 is inserted near the heating unit 2 and the control unit 8 is inserted.

If the self-control temperature of the heating means 2 is set to 60 ° C. during normal operation, the power consumption can be greatly reduced by controlling the thermistor 23 to 45 ° C., for example. In other words, the heating temperature of the heating means 2 is input to the above-mentioned algorithm for controlling to the target value per month, and conversely, the control means 8 issues an instruction for the control temperature of the heating means 2 that matches the target value. This can be fixed to a certain constant value, and the integrated power can be made to match the target power amount.

FIG. 7 shows an example of a time chart in the case where the frequency of ON / OFF of the stirring means 3 is controlled so that its integrated power matches the target power amount. here,
FIG. 5 shows a case where the stirring frequency is significantly reduced with respect to the normal operation mode of FIG. That is, by controlling the stirring frequency of the stirring means 3 according to the above-described algorithm for controlling to the target value per month, the electricity cost per month can be matched with the target electric energy.

FIG. 8 shows an example in which the stirring speed or torque of the stirring means 3 is controlled in the power saving operation mode so that the integrated power thereof matches the target power amount. A motor control block 14 is arranged before the stirring means 3. The motor control block 14 has a function of reducing the stirring speed of the stirring means 3 or a function of reducing the torque. Then, by incorporating the monthly target value of the stirring speed or the torque of the stirring unit 3 into the algorithm, it is possible to control the power per month, and it is possible to reduce the total power consumption of the stirring unit 3.

FIG. 9 shows an example of a time chart in the case where the ventilation frequency of the ventilation means 4 is controlled in the power saving operation mode so that the integrated power thereof matches the target power amount. This shows a case where the ventilation frequency is greatly reduced with respect to the normal operation mode of FIG. According to the above-described algorithm for controlling the monthly target value, the power consumption can be reduced by matching the monthly electricity bill with the target power amount. Note that a similar effect can be obtained by changing the rotation speed of the ventilation means to a speed at which the integrated power matches the target power amount, instead of changing the ventilation frequency.

FIG. 10 shows an example of a time chart in the case where the heating means 2 and the stirring means 3 are controlled so as not to be simultaneously turned on in the power saving operation mode.

The control unit 8 controls the heater and the motor so that the heater and the motor are not turned on at the same time and the integrated power thereof matches the target power amount. . As described above, by controlling the ON timing of the heating means 2 and the ON timing of the motor 3a not to overlap with each other, it is possible to control the electricity bill per month. As an advantage of this method, the maximum power consumption of the device can be reduced, and the design cost of the electric circuit can be reduced. The stirring means 3 does not necessarily have to be turned on at the moment when the heating means 2 is turned off as shown in FIG. 10, and both loads may be turned off. In short,
By adopting a form of control in which the ON timing of the heating means 2 and the ON timing of the stirring means 3 do not overlap, it is sufficient that the monthly electricity bill can be matched with the target electric energy.

FIG. 11 shows an input means 9 for setting an electricity cost conversion value according to the amount of electric power and inputting a target electricity cost value, and a display means 1 for displaying a daily accumulated electricity cost according to the input value.
FIG. 3 shows a block diagram in the case of having 0. Here, the input means 9 has an input unit capable of setting and changing a target power amount per month, and further allows input of a correction value of the power consumption and the electricity cost at that time. For example, 1
If 0 kWh = 23 yen is input and the electricity bill is 300 yen per month, the set value is displayed on the display means 10. In addition, the reset function is activated at the beginning of the month so that the daily accumulated power and the accumulated electricity bill can be displayed. Here, the input value is converted by the control means 8, and the ventilation means 4, the heating means 2, and the stirring means 3
The operation frequency and operation level of at least one of the output systems are controlled to match the target value. As a result, it is possible to adjust to a predetermined amount of electric power (electricity cost), and it is possible to reliably realize the electricity cost as expected by the user. In addition, by providing the input means 9 and the display means 10, the user can be conscious of the electricity bill per month, get a sense of pleasure of inputting the value of itself, and also have the advantage of being able to taste the environmental contribution of garbage disposal. is there.

The input means 9 has a function indicating the degree of power saving and a selection switch (not shown) for selecting the function.
There may be. For example, if the 1/2 operation selection switch or 1/3 operation selection switch in the normal operation mode is normally charged for 600 yen per month, the 1/2 operation selection switch is controlled to 300 yen. can do.

Further, the amount of garbage input by the user becomes larger than a predetermined target value with respect to the electricity charge instruction value set by the user, and the amount of water in the garbage processing apparatus 6 is controlled by the operation of the water detecting means 19. When it is detected that the garbage has become high, the display means 10 may display a message so as to have the user suppress the input of garbage. This allows the user to refrain from turning on the power or turn off the power saving switch means 7, so that the operation according to the amount of garbage can be continued.

FIG. 12 shows a control method in which the control means 8 automatically returns to the normal operation mode in order to give priority to the processing state of the garbage after notifying that the input amount of the garbage is about to be overloaded. Is shown. The notification may be either display or sound. In FIG. 12, when the power saving switch is pressed in the normal operation mode, the moisture detecting means detects whether or not the amount of garbage is excessively large. It is displayed. In this way, if the user's usage load (garbage input amount) is slightly over the electricity bill indication value set by the user himself, the state is detected, and a display is displayed in accordance with the detected state. Can reduce the input of garbage.

Further, when the user's usage load (garbage input amount) is slightly over the electric charge instruction value set by the user himself, the state is detected and displayed, and then the mode switching means automatically performs the operation. By automatically returning the operation mode according to the user's garbage input amount, for example, from the power saving operation mode to the normal operation mode, it becomes possible to prioritize the processing of garbage over saving of electricity costs .
