Description

  The present invention relates to a separate collection device, and more particularly, to a separate collection device that can be used by separately collecting various wastes such as combustible materials and noncombustible materials, or cups.

In various restaurants such as self-service coffee shops, waste such as combustible and incombustible materials generated during eating and drinking, and paper and resin cups using drinking water are collected by customers themselves. It was returned to the storage box or return stand.
However, in such a conventional waste disposal means, a box-shaped storage box is simply provided, and various wastes are discarded as they are without being compressed, and cups are also discarded without being separated. .

  To separate and collect various types of waste in a limited space store, it is necessary to increase the number of collection boxes and increase the number of collections. In addition, in order to recycle or reuse the cups, it is necessary to collect the cups in a cylindrical shape so as not to be bulky, and to reduce the cost of employees required for this work. It was a big challenge.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention rotates three (at least two) circular or polygonal drum-like rotating bodies coaxially and synchronously. In two (at least one) rotating bodies, combustible materials and non-combustible materials are separately stored and compressed, and the other one rotating body automatically discards the remaining drinking water into the tank. Further, the cups are separated according to size and are stacked in a cylindrical shape.

  That is, in order to separate and collect the combustible and non-combustible materials, the cups and the waste left over, the three or circular drum-shaped rotating bodies are rotated coaxially and synchronously. In the two drums, combustible materials and non-combustible materials are separately stored and further compressed. Out of a plurality of storage and intake ports arranged equidistantly on the outer peripheral surface, the storage and intake ports are housed in a storage and intake port located on the front surface of the apparatus frame body by a rotating operation.

  When combustible and non-combustible materials are not separated, and both are treated together, only one drum can be used for the treatment, and a total of 2 drums, including the cups and drums for treating leftovers. A single drum is fine.

  In the other rotating drum, a cup is placed in the storage intake port located on the front, and then the rotating body is rotated, so that the reversed cups are stored in the storage box provided at the lower part of the rotating body. Let it be stored.

  When the two drums are rotated, the combustible and non-combustible wastes are compressed in the storage box. Unwaste drinking water waste remaining in the cups is discarded into a tank provided at the bottom of the third drum, and the cups are sorted according to size, In a cylindrical storage box arranged on the side, they are stacked in a cylindrical shape and collected separately.

  When storing waste consisting of combustible and non-combustible materials during drinking and drinking, and cups and leftovers, the separation and recovery device of the present invention can reduce the overall size of the device and use power such as electric power. And can be easily operated by hand or foot. In addition, the structure is simple and inexpensive, and it can be installed freely in a small store, which is extremely useful for reducing labor and cost required for waste disposal and collection.

  Although the present invention is a compact separation and collection device, combustible and non-combustible materials are separately stored and compressed, and the cups can be swallowed at the same time by rotating the rotating body at a constant angle with one hand or foot movement. The remaining drinking water is automatically discarded into the tank, and the cup is also stacked and stored in a cylindrical shape while being sorted according to size.

  The separation storage device of the present invention has a circular or polygonal drum shape, and has a plurality of rotating bodies that rotate coaxially, and a waste storage intake port disposed on the outer peripheral surface side of the rotating body. A predetermined process is performed on the waste stored from the waste storage inlet.

  A guide plate formed concentrically with the rotating body, and at least a plurality of compression plates rotatably mounted around the peripheral edge of the rotating body, and disposed of from the waste intake port The object is compressed by rotating the rotating body. The waste is compressed by the compression plate.

  The compression plate has a stopper that prevents it from being pushed back in the reverse direction by the waste already stored.

  A circular or polygonal drum-shaped rotating body having a cylinder formed at the center of the rotating body, a plurality of partition rings formed coaxially with the cylinder, and a U-shaped notch .

  The cups to be discarded are inserted between the cylinder and the partition ring, and with the rotation of the drum, the vertical state (upward), the horizontal direction, and the inverted state (downward) are transferred. , It is discarded into a tank provided at the bottom of the drum.

  From the descending order of the cup size height, place the gate bar corresponding to the cup height size on the size separation plate where the cup intake separation hole is formed, and the cup lower than the gate bar, The cup that passes through the gate bar and is higher than the gate bar is caught by the gate bar, and the intake is stored in the cylindrical storage box through the separation hole.
