When the preheating process for about 20 minutes is completed, the pulverization drying process starts.

A pulverization drying process is demonstrated.
First, the heated exothermic magnetic body 3 descends into the inner pot 14, and the blade 20 crushes the garbage G and dries the garbage G. While the heat generating magnetic body 3 is lowered into the inner pot 14 (for about 0.5 seconds), the heat generating coil body 5 stops heating.
Next, the heat generating magnetic body 3 rises into the guide cylinder 21. At the same time, the heating coil body 5 resumes heating of the heat generating magnetic body 3, and the outer hook driving device 11 rotates the hook 40 (the outer hook 13 and the inner hook 14) around the vertical axis. While the exothermic magnetic body 3 is raised (for about 0.5 seconds), the heating and rotation continue.
Next, heating of the heating coil body 5 is stopped and rotation of the hook 40 is stopped. At the same time, the heated heat generating magnetic body 3 is lowered into the inner hook 14 and pulverizes the garbage G.
Thus, heating ON / OFF of the heating coil body 5 and rotation / rest of the hook 40 are intermittently repeated at intervals of about 0.5 seconds in response to the rising / lowering of the heat generating magnetic body 3.
Simultaneously with the start of the crushing and drying process, the fan 24 of the induction cylinder 21 starts to operate, and the air taken into the cover body 1 from the intake port 19 is supplied with ion gas from the ion generator 6, and the induction cylinder It flows into the body 21 and into the hollow interior 3a of the heat generating magnetic body 3, and is heated into the inner pot 14 by being heated by the heated magnetic bodies 3 and 4. The fan 24 continues to operate continuously during the process.

This crushing and drying process is performed for about 60 minutes, and the garbage G is dried and crushed evenly as a whole by the rotation of the pot 40. Moreover, the air containing ion gas reduces the smell of the garbage G in the pot 40, and is exhausted outside through the partition plate part 18 and the side wall 2a of the basic container body 2.
When the crushing and drying process for about 60 minutes is completed, the heat generating magnetic body 3 is raised, the stopper device 9 is turned on and held in the guide cylinder 21 so as not to fall, and the stirring and drying process is started.

The stirring and drying process will be described.
First, the stirring plate portion 7b of the elevating stirrer 7 is lowered to the vicinity of the concave circumferential groove 25 in the inner pot 14, and the stirring plate portion 7b rotates around the axis to stir the crushed garbage G. .
The pot 40 continues to rotate and stop intermittently at intervals of about 0.5 seconds from the crushing drying process to the stirring drying process.
Simultaneously with the start of this stirring and drying step, the heating coil body 5 starts to heat the heating magnetic body 3 continuously (not intermittently).
Further, the fan 24 continues to operate from the pulverization drying process to the stirring drying process, and the air passes through the hollow interior 3a of the heat generating magnetic body 3 to become hot air by the heated magnetic body 4, Supply continues into the pot 14.
This stirring / drying process is performed for about 70 minutes, and by the rotation of the pot 40, the shredded garbage G is uniformly stirred as a whole, and moisture is taken away and dried.

When the stirring and drying process for about 70 minutes is completed, the rotation of the rod portion 7a and the stirring plate portion 7b is stopped and lifted and held, and the rotation of the hook 40 is also stopped. Further, the heating coil body 5 is also turned off.
The fan 24 continues to operate from the stirring and drying process to the after cooling process, and shifts to the after cooling process.
By this after-cooling process, the processed garbage G in the magnetic bodies 3 and 4 and the inner pot 14 is cooled (cooled). This process lasts for about 30 minutes, and when completed, the fan 24 stops and the open / close safety device 17 is turned off.
Then, as shown in FIG. 2, the cover body 1 is opened, the inner pot 14 is taken out from the outer pot 13, and the garbage G that has become a dry powder is used as organic fertilizer or the like.

The magnetic bodies 3 and 4 rise to about 150 ° C., and the air supplied into the pot 40 rises to about 120 ° C. The temperature of this hot air is optimal for drying ingredients, and the garbage G is appropriately dried without being carbonized and can be used for both feed and fertilizer.
The power consumption in all processes is about 120W.

As described above, the garbage processing machine according to the present invention includes the hook 40 into which the garbage G is charged, the exothermic magnetic body 3 provided so as to freely reciprocate up and down between the inside 41 of the pot 40 and the upper outside 42 thereof, A heating coil body 5 that is disposed above the pot 40 and electromagnetically heats the heating magnetic body 3 that is rising, so that the heated heating magnetic body 3 takes away moisture from the garbage G, Since it can be dried, good quality organic fertilizer or feed can be produced without carbonization.
Moreover, since this fertilizer or feed is dry, it has little odor and is easy to handle.
Further, since the heat generating magnetic body 3 is intermittently electromagnetically heated by the heat generating coil body 5, it is efficiently heated in a short time, and the heat generating magnetic body 3 is always maintained at a high temperature. In addition, it consumes less power and is economically preferable.

Further, the exothermic magnetic body 3 has a blade 20 that protrudes downwardly so as to pulverize the garbage G in the interior 41 of the hook 40 by its lowering operation. It is configured to rotate around the vertical axis while moving upward, so that the blade 20 can be crushed even with hard garbage G like a shell, as the exothermic magnetic body 3 reciprocates. Garbage G can be crushed.
Therefore, good quality organic fertilizer can be produced from the garbage G.
Further, since the hook 40 rotates while the exothermic magnetic body 3 rises with the upper outside 42 of the pot 40 and is not pulverized, the garbage G in the pot 40 can be crushed evenly as a whole.

Moreover, since the exothermic magnetic body 3 has a cylindrical shape having a blower hollow interior 3a for supplying air to the interior 41 of the pot 40, in the pulverization drying process and the agitation drying process of the garbage G, A large amount of air (oxygen) can be supplied to the garbage G at all times, generation of odor from the garbage G can be suppressed, and drying can be performed in a short time.
Furthermore, since the inside of the pot 40 and the heat generating magnetic body 3 can be cooled (cooled) in a short time after the stirring and drying step, the working time can be shortened.

In this way, by treating the garbage G at each household, for example, the burden on the incineration facility can be reduced, and since the waste water discharged from the garbage G is reduced, the burden on the sewage treatment facility can also be reduced. .
Achieving a zero-waste society and aiming for a global recycling society.
