The duct member 66 is attached to the left and right along the lower rear portion of the drying chamber 19, and the outer surface of the duct member 66 has an outer surface.
The exhaust duct 67, which is in contact with the air that circulates inside and extends to the left and right, is formed inside. An exhaust port 68 is provided in the heat insulating box 18 at a position corresponding to the rear surface of the right end of the exhaust duct 67.
Is formed through the exhaust port 68, and the exhaust port 68 is connected to the air supply and exhaust device 27.
It has an opening inside.

This air supply / exhaust device 27 is shown in FIGS.
As shown in, a chamber 69 attached to the back surface of the heat insulating box 18 and the inside of the chamber 69 are vertically partitioned.
Partition plate 7 that vertically configures the air supply chamber 71 and the heat exchange chamber 72
3 and a plurality of heat-conducting intake pipes 74 that penetrate the inside of the heat exchange chamber 72 in the vertical direction and communicate the outside of the chamber 69 with the inside of the air supply chamber 71, and the intake pipes 74. A plurality of through holes 75 ... Which communicate the inside and the outside of the heat exchange chamber 72 in the rear part of the heat exchange chamber 72 located further behind, and an exhaust sirocco fan 76 which is an exhaust means attached to the chamber 69.
And an air supply sirocco fan 77 that serves as an air supply means. The exhaust port 68 is connected to the heat exchange chamber 72.
It has an opening at the front end.

The suction port 76A of the exhaust sirocco fan 76 is open at the rear end of the heat exchange chamber 72, and the discharge port 76B is open to the outside. This sirocco fan 7
6 sucks air from the suction port 76A located in the axial direction,
It discharges from the discharge port 76B located in the radial direction. Further, the suction port 7 of the air supply sirocco fan 77.
7A is opened on the upper surface of the air supply chamber 71, and the discharge port 77B
Communicates with an outside air introduction port 78 that penetrates the back surface of the heat insulating box 18 and communicates the inside and outside of the drying chamber 19. The sirocco fan 77 also sucks air from the suction port 77A located in the axial direction and discharges the air from the discharge port 77B located in the radial direction.

The sirocco fan 76 is the fan motor 7
It is operated by 6M, exits from the exhaust port 68, and enters the heat exchange chamber 72.
The air passing through the inside and a relatively large amount of outside air (a large amount compared with the amount of air from the exhaust port 68) flowing in from the plurality of through holes 75 ... Are sucked from the suction port 76A, and the outside is discharged from the discharge port 76B. Is discharged (indicated by a dashed arrow in FIG. 8). The sirocco fan 77 is driven by a fan motor 77M, and sucks the outside air, which has flowed into the air supply chamber 71 from the outside through the inside of the intake pipe 74, from the suction port 77A and discharges it from the discharge port 77B. The outside air discharged from the discharge port 77B flows into the drying chamber 19 through the outside air introduction port 78 (shown by a solid arrow in FIG. 8).

With this configuration, the sirocco fan 7
The outside air sucked in 7 is heat-exchanged through the intake pipe 74 without being mixed with the air flowing out from the exhaust port 68 while passing through the intake pipe 74. Further, the air in the drying chamber 19 flows out from the exhaust port 68 through the deodorizing devices 26, 26 and the exhaust duct 67, exchanges heat with the intake pipe 74, ... And then a large amount of outside air flowing in through the through hole 75. It is mixed and discharged from the discharge port 76B. Therefore, the amount of exhaust air from the drying chamber 19 by the sirocco fan 76 is smaller than the amount of outside air introduced into the drying chamber 19 by the sirocco fan 77, so that the air pressure inside the drying chamber 19 is higher than the outside. Therefore, the flow of the drying room air that enters the inside of the deodorizing devices 26, 26 from the front end openings and exits from the rear end openings is caused exclusively by the pressure difference inside and outside the drying room 19.

Furthermore, the amount of outside air introduced by the sirocco fan 77 per unit time is at least the deodorizing devices 26, 26.
It is set to be smaller than the air throughput of the catalysts 61, 61 per unit time.

Next, the detailed structure of the solid-liquid separation device 29 will be described. The solid-liquid separation device 29 is crushed by the disposer 16 and separates the garbage that is sent together with water through the garbage introduction hose 17 into a solid content and a liquid content, and only the solid content is placed in the drying tank 4. It is a device for introduction,
A rectangular tubular outer shell 8 having one end (front end) in the axial direction that is provided with a cap 82 that opens and closes the opening 81A.
1, a cylindrical solid-liquid separation filter 83 that is inserted into the outer shell 81 from the insertion hole 81B at the other end (rear end) of the outer shell 81 with a gap, and one end in the axial direction is open. A spiral 86 having a shaft 84 and coaxially inserted from the rear end into the solid-liquid separation filter 83, and a rotation shaft 8 of the spiral 86.
4 The rotation shaft 84 is rotationally driven via the pulley 87 attached to the rear end and the belt and pulley 88 (not shown), and the solid-liquid separation motor 29M as a drive unit attached to the side surface of the outer casing 81 and the outer casing 81. An arm 92 disposed inside and cleaning rods 89, 89 as cleaning means
And a ring 91 and the like.

At the edge of the opening 81A at one end of the outer shell 81, a mounting flange 81F is formed so as to project outward, and a circular through hole 81C is formed in the rear side surface of the outer shell 81 to form a front portion. A drain port 81D is formed on the lower surface. A plurality of small holes 83B are formed on the peripheral surface of the solid-liquid separation filter 83.
Is formed, and a circular through hole 83A having substantially the same diameter is formed at a position corresponding to the through hole 81C of the outer shell 81. The edge of the spiral 86 is in sliding contact with or close to the inner surface of the solid-liquid separation filter 83.

The center of the arm 92 is fixed to the tip of the rotary shaft 84, and the cleaning rods 89, 89 are attached to both ends of the arm 92 and extend rearward through the ring 91. The cap 82 has a carry-out port 93 as a kitchen introduction portion that projects forward, and the carry-out port 93 is located above the rotation shaft 84. Further, the carry-out port 93 is gradually opened toward the exit 93A at the front end.

The arm 92 is located inside the cap 82 (on the solid-liquid separation filter 83 side), and the ring 91 is located between the arm 92 and the solid-liquid separation filter 83. An opening edge portion of one end of the solid-liquid separation filter 83 in the axial direction slidably contacts the ring 91. As a result, the inside of the solid-liquid separation filter 83 and the outside of the outer shell 81 are sealed, and the inside of the solid-liquid separation filter 83 communicates with the carry-out port 93 through the inside of the ring 91. Further, the cleaning rods 89, 89 enter between the outer shell 81 and the solid-liquid separation filter 83, and come into sliding contact with or close to the outer surface of the solid-liquid separation filter 83.

With this structure, the arm 92 and the cleaning rod 8
9, 89 and the ring 91 are rotated together with the spiral by the rotation of the rotating shaft 84. Reference numeral 97 denotes a connecting pipe that connects the garbage introduction hose 17 and the inside of the solid-liquid separation filter 83, one end of which is connected to the through hole 83A and protrudes to the outside from the through hole 81C of the outer shell 81. The other end is connected to the kitchen waste introduction hose 17.

The solid-liquid separation device 29 has an outer shell 81.
It is fixed to the back surface of the heat insulating box body 18 by utilizing the flange 81F. At this time, the carry-out port 93 of the cap 82 penetrates the heat-insulating box body 4 and faces the upper portion of the rear surface in the drying chamber 19.

Incidentally, these outer shell 81, cap 82, solid-liquid separation filter 83, spiral 86, arm 92, ring 91.
All of the above can be disassembled as shown in FIG. Therefore, cleaning becomes easy. Here, in the embodiment, the small holes 83B ... Formed on the peripheral surface of the solid-liquid separation filter 83 are formed with the same size (FIG. 34), but as shown in FIG. By doing so, the solid-liquid separation and transportation of the garbage can be carried out more smoothly. Further, as shown in FIG. 36, above the solid-liquid separation filter 83 (actually, the cleaning rod 8
If a sprinkler 96 as a sprinkler is provided at a position (which does not interfere with 9), the solid-liquid separation filter 8
The outer surface of 3 can be washed away.

With the above-described structure, the drying tank 4 to which the cover 44 is attached as described above is inserted into the drying chamber 19 through the front opening of the drying chamber 19 with the heat insulating door 3 opened. At this time, the locking members 36, 36 of the drying tank 4 are inserted into the locking portions 48, 48 from the front, so that the drying tank 4 is removably suspended in the drying chamber 19.

In this state, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 9, the drying chamber 19 (partitioning member 2
1, including heating chamber filter 53 and duct member 66)
A predetermined distance is formed between the inner surface and the inner surface. Further, the window hole 36A of the locking member 36 on the left side corresponds to the discharge port 51. Further, the coupler 39 on the rear surface 4D engages with the coupler 47 on the rear surface of the drying chamber 19 in a detachable manner from the front, whereby the driving force of the stirring motor 28 is transmitted to the rotating shaft 37. In addition, the carry-out port 93 of the solid-liquid separation device 29 enters the drying tank 4 from the rear through the garbage introduction hole 43 and opens.

Next, FIG. 37 shows a block diagram of an electric circuit of the control device 33. The control device 33 is composed of a general-purpose microcomputer 98 as a control means, and the operation switch 99 and the temperature sensor 49 are connected to the input of this microcomputer 98. The output of the microcomputer 98 is the stirring motor 2
8, solid-liquid separation motor 29M, fan motor 23M, 76
The motors M and 77M are connected, and the electric heaters of the drying chamber heater 24 and the deodorizing heater 59 (actually two, but one is shown here) are connected.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described. When the operation switch 99 is operated, the microcomputer 98 of the control device 33 first energizes the deodorizing heater 59. After a lapse of a predetermined time after the start of the energization, the microcomputer 98 starts the operation of other devices when the deodorizing heater 59 becomes capable of heating the temperature of the passing air to around + 350 ° C. as described above. .

Then, when the kitchen waste generated in the sink 2 is thrown into the kitchen discharge hole 13 together with the running water, the kitchen waste is crushed by the disposer 16 and discharged into the kitchen introducing hose 17 together with the running water. In this way, when the garbage (solid-liquid separation object) crushed from the disposer 16 from the garbage introducing hose 17 is conveyed into the solid-liquid separation filter 83 of the solid-liquid separation device 29, the liquid content is small holes 83B. .. from the solid-liquid separation filter 83, and is discharged to the outside from the drain port 81D. Therefore, only the solid content of kitchen waste remains in the solid-liquid separation filter 83. On the other hand, the microcomputer 98 drives the solid-liquid separation motor 29M to rotate the rotary shaft 8
4, the spiral 86 is rotated in a fixed direction.

By the rotation of the spiral 86, the solid content of the garbage in the solid-liquid separation filter 83 is carried out toward the carrying-out port 93 at the front end. At this time, the kitchen waste is subjected to a pressing action, so that the liquid component contained in the kitchen waste is satisfactorily discharged and separated. Further, the arm 92 also rotates together with the spiral 86, and the spiral 8
The solid content of the kitchen waste that is conveyed by the 6 toward the outlet 93 and pressed against the cap 82 is the inlet 93B of the outlet 93.
I will guide you in the direction. Thereby, the solid-liquid separation filter 8
The solid content of the garbage that has been solid-liquid separated in 3 is smoothly fed to the carry-out port 93.

At this time, since the carry-out port 93 is located above the rotary shaft 84 and the drainage port 81D is formed on the lower surface of the outer shell 81, even if a large amount of water flows in at the beginning of operation, the carry-out port 93 is provided.
Will not overflow. Also, the cleaning rods 89, 89
Rotates on the outer surface of the solid-liquid separation filter 83, so that the small holes 8
The kitchen waste that has jumped out of 3B ... Is scraped off, the solid content can be conveyed smoothly, and dirt on the outer surface of the solid-liquid separation filter 83 can be removed. Further, since the carry-out port 93 is gradually expanded toward the exit 93A, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the solid content of kitchen waste is clogged in the carry-out port 93.

In this way, the solid content of the kitchen waste separated from the liquid content by the solid-liquid separation device 29 exits from the outlet 93A of the carry-out port 93 and is introduced into the drying tank 4. Then, when the kitchen waste has accumulated to a predetermined position lower than the cleaning member 41, the microcomputer 98 is automatically or manually operated.
Stops the solid-liquid separation motor 29M, starts operation of the stirring motor 28, starts energization of the drying chamber heater 24, and starts operation of each fan motor 23M, 76M, and 77M. The operation of the stirring motor 28, the drying chamber heater 24, and the fan motors 23M, 76M, and 77M may be started from the time when the garbage is introduced into the drying tank 4 from the solid-liquid separation device 29.

As a result, the kitchen waste (solid content) in the drying tank 4
Is stirred by being stirred counterclockwise in FIG. 6 by the stirring member 38B of the stirring device 38. At this time, on the right side, the kitchen waste is lifted by the stirring member 38B, but the kitchen waste lifted by the presence of the eaves portion 42 is dropped before reaching the cover 44. Further, since the stirring member 38B comes close to the cleaning member 41 in the ascending process, the garbage attached to the stirring member 38B is scraped off by the cleaning member 41. Further, the stirring member 38B moves to the bottom of the drying tank 4 and, in the process of rising from the bottom, the bottom surface 4B.
Since it is separated from the above, the inconvenience that kitchen waste is clogged between the stirring member 38B and the bottom surface 4B is also prevented or suppressed. By these, the kitchen waste is smoothly and effectively stirred. Further, since the upper surface opening is closed by the cover 44, it is also possible to prevent or suppress the internal kitchen waste (particularly powdered) from being scattered to the outside.

Further, as the cross flow fan 23 rotates, the air heated by the drying chamber heater 24 is sucked by the cross flow fan 23 and discharged from the discharge port 51. The heated air discharged from the discharge port 51 passes through the window hole 36A of the locking member 36 on the left side of the drying tank 4, and then passes over the drying tank 4, and the window hole of the locking member 36 on the right side. After passing through 36A, it descends along the wall surface of the drying chamber 19 to the right, front, and rear of the drying tank 4. Then, it goes under the drying tank 4, and when it reaches the left side, it passes through the heating chamber filter 53 and enters the heating chamber 22 through the suction port 52. Then, each deodorizing device 2 in the heating chamber 22
After passing around 6 and 26, return to the drying chamber heater 24,
The circulation that is heated and sucked by the cross flow fan 23 again is repeated.

As a result, the kitchen waste in the drying tank 4 is heated from the surroundings through the entire wall surface of the drying tank 4.
Further, the left side surface 44B of the cover 44 is provided on the left side locking member 36.
Since it stands up at an angle corresponding to the window hole 36A of the left side surface 44A, a part of the circulating air passing through the window hole 36A is left side surface 44A.
It collides with B and further moves along the upper surface 44A. Therefore, the ventilation holes 46 on the left side surface 44B and the upper surface 44A are
.. From here, a part of the circulating air is positively introduced into the drying tank 4, whereby the kitchen waste in the drying tank 4 is uniformly and smoothly dried by heating from the surroundings and heating by the introduced air. Will be done.

At this time, since the deodorizing heaters 59, 59 are generating heat in the deodorizing devices 26, 26, the containers 64, 64 are
The temperature has risen above + 350 ° C. Moreover, since the deodorizing devices 26, 26 are on the circulation path of the air circulating in the drying chamber 19 as described above, the circulating air is heated by the heat dissipated by the deodorizing devices 26, 26 to the outside. Thermal efficiency is improved. Further, since the total opening area per unit area of each ventilation hole 46 ... Of the left side surface 44B is made larger than that of the other surface, it is possible to smoothly introduce the circulating air into the drying tank 4. Become.

The microcomputer 98 is the temperature sensor 4
On the basis of the temperature in the drying chamber 19 detected by 9, for example, when the temperature in the drying chamber 19 reaches the upper limit temperature of + 120 ° C., the power supply to the drying chamber heater 24 is cut off (OFF), which is the above-mentioned lower limit temperature. ON-OFF control is performed to start (ON) energization when the temperature drops to + 110 ° C. Here, as described above, the circulating air is heated by the deodorizing devices 26, 26, but the capacity of the deodorizing heaters 59, 59 is the lower limit temperature in the drying chamber 19 as described above +11.
Since the circulating air in the drying chamber 19 cannot be heated to 0 ° C., the deodorizing heaters 59, 59 can be continuously energized while the ON / OFF control of the drying chamber heater 24 by the microcomputer 98 is performed without any trouble. Becomes
The deodorizing action of the deodorizing devices 26, 26 described below can be maintained without any trouble.

Further, as the sirocco fan 77 rotates, the outside air is sucked through the intake pipes 74, ... As described above, and is discharged and introduced into the drying chamber 19 through the outside air inlet 78. As a result, fresh outside air necessary for drying is always introduced into the drying chamber 19. Further, as the sirocco fan 76 rotates, the air in the exhaust duct 67 is sucked and discharged as described above. On the other hand, as described above, due to the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the drying chamber 19, part of the circulating air passes through the deodorizing filter 56 and enters the container 64 through the front end openings of the deodorizing devices 26, 26.

Here, the deodorizing heater 59 constantly generates heat as described above, and the heat is transmitted to the fins 58 .... The air that has entered the container 64 passes through the ventilation holes 58A of the fins 58 around the deodorizing heater 59.
In the process of passing through here, the temperature is raised to around + 350 ° C as described above. Then, the high-temperature air passing through each fin 58 reaches the agitating material 63, but is partially dammed because it passes through the punching holes 62 of the agitating material 63.
As a result, a turbulent flow is generated and agitated.
The temperature of the air passed through is uniformed. After that, it flows into the catalyst 61 and is deodorized as described above. At this time, since the air temperature is made uniform by the stirring material 63 as described above, the deodorizing action by the catalyst 61 is also made uniform as a whole. Further, since the air circulation itself in the deodorizing devices 26, 26 is caused by the pressure difference inside and outside the drying chamber 19 as described above, the amount of air passing through the container 64 is made uniform. Also, the catalyst 6
The time that air passes through 1 is also long enough for the catalyst 61 to deodorize the odorous components in the air. As a result, effective and efficient deodorization is performed in the deodorizing devices 26, 26.

The air deodorized in this manner is treated by the catalyst 61.
From the rear end opening into the exhaust duct 67, passing through the inside to reach the exhaust port 68. In this case, the duct member 66
Is in contact with the circulating air in the drying chamber 19, the heat of the high-temperature air flowing inside through the duct member 66 can also be used for heating the air circulating in the drying chamber 19. This further improves the thermal efficiency.

The air reaching the exhaust port 68 enters the heat exchange chamber 72 and exchanges heat with the outside air passing through the intake pipes 74, ... As described above. Therefore, the drying room 1
Since the outside air introduced into the inside 9 is heated by the high-temperature air discharged from the exhaust port 68, the thermal efficiency is further improved. The air that has passed through the intake pipes 74 ... Is mixed with a relatively large amount of outside air that flows in through the through holes 75 ... As described above, and is then discharged to the outside from the discharge port 76B by the sirocco fan 76. As a result, the exhaust gas temperature is significantly lowered, and the inconvenience caused by the high temperature exhaust gas is eliminated.

After executing such a drying operation for a predetermined time, the microcomputer 98 stops the operation of each device. At this time, the cooling of the inside of the drying chamber 19 may be performed by stopping the heat generation of the drying chamber heater 24 and operating the crossflow fan 23 for a predetermined period before stopping all the operations. Further, a buzzer or the like (not shown) may be activated by the end of the drying operation. After that, the heat insulation door 3
Open and take out the drying tank 4 forward. And the drying tank 4
After that, the garbage will be collected after drying.

As described above, by the cross flow fan 23, the air heated by the drying chamber heater 24 is circulated around the drying tank 4, and a part of the circulating air is dried.
Since it is introduced into the inside, the space between the drying tank 4 and the drying chamber 19 is used as a circulation path for the heated air, and the air circulating in this circulation path allows the drying tank 4 itself to be circulated from the surroundings. To be able to heat.

Further, since a part of the circulating air is also introduced into the drying tank 4, the kitchen waste in the drying tank 4 is introduced into the drying tank 4 by the heating action from the entire surface which is transmitted through the entire drying tank 4. As a result of the heating effect of the circulated air thus generated, heating is performed uniformly and efficiently. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the inconvenience that the kitchen waste is burnt and carbonized due to the uneven heating action, and the time required to dry the entire kitchen waste can be shortened.

In particular, since the circulation air path is formed between the drying chamber 19 and the drying tank 4 arranged in the drying chamber 19 with a space, sufficient circulation is achieved within a limited size. The amount of air can be secured, the structure can be simplified, and the size can be reduced and the production cost can be reduced. Further, since the entire drying chamber 19 including the drying tank 4 is heated, the temperature of the entire drying chamber 19 becomes high, so that it is possible to prevent the propagation of various bacteria in the drying chamber 19 and the generation of a bad odor.

Further, since the drying tank 4 is detachably attached to the drying chamber 19, the kitchen waste after the drying process can be taken out from the drying chamber 19 together with the drying tank 4, and the drying tank 4 itself. Cleaning is also easy. Further, the drying chamber 19 has an opening on the front side, and this opening is closed by the heat insulating door 3 so that it can be freely opened and closed, and the drying tank 4 can be delivered from the opening, as in the embodiment. It is possible to arrange the garbage processing device 1 under the sink of the sink 2 or under another work table, and to store the drying tank 4 from the front side, thereby reducing the installation space or the flexibility of the installation layout. It will be possible to significantly improve.

Further, the drying tank 4 has a container shape having an opening on the upper surface, and a detachable cover 44 is provided at the opening of the drying tank 4, and the cover 44 has a plurality of ventilation holes 46 having a small opening area. Since the cover 44 is formed to eliminate or suppress the inconvenience that kitchen waste is scattered from the inside of the drying tank 4 into the drying chamber 19, the ventilation holes 46 can introduce the circulating air into the drying tank 4 without any trouble. Will be able to.

Then, the total opening area of the ventilation holes 46 per unit area of the left side surface 44B located on the upstream side of the air circulating in the drying chamber 19 of the cover 44 is changed to the ventilation area per unit area of the other surface. Since the total opening area of the holes 46 is made larger, part of the air circulating in the drying chamber 19 can be smoothly introduced into the drying tank 4 through the ventilation holes 46 located on the upstream side. Furthermore, the left side surface 44B of the cover 44 located on the upstream side of the air circulating in the drying chamber 19 is
Since it has a shape that collides with a part of this circulating air flow,
The circulating air can be introduced into the drying tank 4 more smoothly through the ventilation holes 46 located on the upstream side.

Since the solid-liquid separation device 29 for separating the solid and liquid components of the kitchen waste is provided, only the solid content of the kitchen waste separated by the solid-liquid separation device 29 is stored in the drying tank 4. The time required for the drying process can be further shortened by storing in and heating. Further, since the solid waste liquid separated by the solid-liquid separator 29 is provided with the carry-out port 93 for introducing it into the drying tank 4, only the solid waste solids separated by the solid-liquid separator 29 is provided. Can be automatically introduced into the drying tank 4 from the carry-out port 93, and the workability is significantly improved. Further, since the carry-out port 93 is communicated with the inside of the drying tank 4 below the upper surface opening of the drying tank 4, when the upper surface opening is closed with the cover 44 as described above, the carrying-out port is provided to the cover 44. It is not necessary to form the opening for 93, and it is possible to eliminate the inconvenience that kitchen waste is scattered from the opening to the outside of the drying tank 4.

Further, a deodorizing device for deodorizing the air in the drying chamber 19 exhausted by the sirocco fan 76 is provided, which has a catalyst 61 active for deodorizing and a deodorizing heater 59 for heating the catalyst 61. Since the air conditioners 26 and 26 are provided, the air discharged from the sirocco fan 76 can be deodorized by the deodorizing device 26, and it is possible to eliminate or suppress the inconvenience that the malodor leaks to the outside.

In particular, since the deodorizing devices 26, 26 are arranged on the path of the circulating air in the drying chamber 19, the heat generated by the deodorizing heater 59 of the deodorizing devices 26, 26 is used to heat the circulating air. It becomes possible to heat and dry the kitchen waste more efficiently.

Further, there is provided a heating chamber 22 which is partitioned and formed in the drying chamber 19 by the partition member 21 and has an inlet 52 and an outlet 51 for air circulating in the drying chamber 19, a cross flow fan 23 and a drying unit. Room heater 24 and deodorizing device 2

The air sucked by the crossflow fan 23 can be effectively heated by the drying chamber heater 24 and the deodorizing heaters 59 of the deodorizing devices 26, 26. Further, since the deodorizing devices 26, 26 are on the suction port 52 side of the drying chamber heater 24, the heat of the drying chamber heater 24 is directly removed by the deodorizing devices 26, 26.
It can also be prevented from adversely affecting. Further, the suction port 52
Since the detachable heating chamber filter 53 is provided in the kitchen, the kitchen waste scattered from the drying tank 4 flows into the heating chamber 22 and adheres to the deodorizing device 26, the drying chamber heater 24, and the cross flow fan 23. You will be able to avoid it.

Further, the heating chamber 22 communicates with the sirocco fan 76 through the deodorizing devices 26, 26, and the deodorizing suction port 5 is provided.
Since the air conditioners 4 and 54 are provided, the speed at which the air discharged from the sirocco fan 76 passes through the inside of the deodorizing device 26 is kept constant, and reliable and stable deodorizing can be realized. Further, since the deodorizing suction ports 54, 54 are provided with detachable deodorizing filters 56, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that kitchen garbage scattered from the drying tank 4 enters the deodorizing device 26 through the deodorizing suction port 54. Will be able to.
