Description

    The present invention relates to a garbage processing apparatus for processing garbage waste discharged from homes, stores, and the like, and more particularly, to a garbage processing apparatus that can reduce the size of the apparatus and can efficiently process the apparatus.

As a conventional means for treating garbage, there is a method in which the garbage is dried by a heater or the like to reduce the volume (see, for example, Patent Document 1) and, for example, incinerated at an incinerator.
However, this method is time consuming and requires a large amount of incineration, and also causes problems such as pollution.
As another means, a bio-type garbage disposal apparatus is known (for example, see Patent Document 2). However, even with this apparatus, it is difficult to efficiently process a large amount of garbage. In addition, in order to quickly process this large amount of garbage, it is inevitably proportional to the amount of garbage, and the garbage processing apparatus itself must be made large. There was a problem of high costs.

Further, although not shown, a shutter may be provided at the outlet 13 and the shutter may be opened and closed by a control device or a manual operation in accordance with the spirit of the present invention. Of course, it is also possible to manually drop the garbage 7 from the outlet 13 to the garbage processing tank 14 after the processing.

    Moreover, although not shown in figure, the garbage 7 in the garbage preliminary tank 2 may be heated, and a drying effect | action may be improved more. As the heating means, whether heated air is supplied into the raw garbage preliminary tank 2, is a heater built in the preliminary tank agitator 6, or is a heater attached to the wall surface of the raw garbage preliminary tank 2? Etc., various means may be taken.

    Then, the garbage 7 dropped from the outlet 13 as described above is stored in the garbage processing tank 14. Thereafter, the garbage 7 is stirred in the garbage processing tank 14 together with the bacterial bed 15 of the microorganisms such as sawdust by the processing tank stirring blade 23 and decomposed by the microorganisms.

    As described above, the garbage 7 in the garbage treatment tank 14 is sufficiently dried in the garbage preliminary tank 2 in advance, and the garbage 7 is in a reduced and reduced volume state. Further, the garbage processing tank 14 can store and process a large amount of the garbage 7 so that the garbage processing apparatus 1 can be downsized.

    Although not shown, a water supply member for supplying water is provided in the garbage processing tank 14 and the water supply into the garbage processing tank 14 is controlled so that the garbage 7 is easily decomposed by microorganisms. By doing so, the processing can be further promoted.

    In addition, the garbage processing tank 14 of the garbage processing apparatus 1 periodically agitates the garbage 7, the microbial bed 15 and the decomposition products stored in the garbage processing tank 14 with a processing tank stirring blade 23, The operation of adjusting the temperature is automatically repeated to adjust the garbage 7, the microbial bed 15, and the decomposition products to be in a certain environmental condition.

    Further, the microbial bed 15, that is, the microbial bed 15 in the garbage processing tank 14, the decomposition products of the garbage 7, etc., periodically open the discharge door 18 and collect it from the discharge port 16. For example, it is used for fully matured compost.

Hereinafter, a second embodiment of the garbage processing apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5 in which the same reference numerals are given to the same portions as the first embodiment.
In the second embodiment, the configuration of the garbage preparatory tank 2 is made different. The raw garbage preliminary tank 2 is formed in an oval shape as a whole when viewed from the upper surface of the garbage processing apparatus 1, and the inside of the tank is partitioned by a rectangular partition 24, thereby forming the inside of the tank in a track shape. .
Sprockets 27 and 28 are provided on the rotating shaft 25 on the motor 8 side which is the driving shaft side and the rotating shaft 26 on the driven shaft side, respectively. A transmission member 29 such as a chain is provided between the sprockets 27 and 28. Reference numeral 11 denotes a preliminary tank stirring blade in which a stirring member 31 is attached to a mounting member 30 formed in an L shape. The preliminary tank agitating blades 11 are fixed and attached so that the end of the attachment member 30 is integrated with the transmission member 29, and a plurality of the auxiliary tank agitation blades 11 are provided at predetermined intervals over the entire circumference of the transmission member 29.

In this case, the opening time of the outlet 13 may be set so that the garbage 7 is rotated and moved around the garbage preliminary tank 2 a plurality of times and then dropped from the outlet 13 to the garbage processing tank 14. . The second embodiment also has the same effect as the first embodiment.

Hereinafter, a third embodiment of the garbage processing apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7 in which the same parts as those in the first and second embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals.
The third embodiment also has a different configuration of the garbage preparatory tank 2. That is, the raw garbage preliminary tank 2 is made into a trough shape, and the rotary shaft 10 with the spiral blade 32 constituting the preliminary tank stirring blade 11 is rotated inside the raw garbage preliminary tank 2. is there.

   Explaining the operation, the garbage 7 introduced from the introduction port 3 is transferred to the outlet 13 while being stirred, removed of moisture, dried and pulverized by the rotation of the spiral blade 32, and is disposed of the garbage disposal tank. 14 is dropped. The third embodiment also has the same effect as the first and second embodiments.

In the embodiment described above, the raw garbage input from the input port 3 is dried. However, the input raw garbage is compressed and supplied to the raw garbage processing tank 14 to be decomposed by microorganisms. Hereinafter, in the fourth embodiment of the garbage processing apparatus of the present invention, the same parts as those in the first, second, and third embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is partially omitted (see FIGS. 8 and 9).
2 ′ is a garbage compression tank for compressing the garbage 7 introduced from the inlet 3, and a screw press P (a screw shaft is provided inside a cylindrical outer cylinder screen in the garbage compression tank 2 ′). The squeezed raw garbage 7 is moved while moving from the entrance to the exit at low speed. In addition, you may crush the garbage 7 thrown in from the insertion port 3 with the crusher 30 before compressing.
Reference numeral 13 ′ denotes an outlet for providing the garbage 7 compressed in the garbage compression tank 2 ′ from the garbage compression tank 2 ′.
Accordingly, the garbage 7 introduced from the inlet 3 is compressed in the garbage compression tank 2 ′, and the compressed garbage 7 is supplied to the garbage processing tank 14. 7 is decomposed by microorganisms.
