Description

  The present invention relates to a garbage disposal apparatus, and more specifically, by simply improving the discharge configuration of the malodor, oil and moisture-containing steam generated from the process of crushing and stirring the garbage. The present invention relates to a garbage disposal device capable of facilitating maintenance.

  Generally, garbage generated in kitchens such as homes and canteens cannot be properly treated by simple separation and collection. In particular, the large amount of garbage discharged from the cafeteria includes various foreign substances, such as paper, vinyl, and iodine, as well as the garbage, and it is hard like meat bones. There is also a fairly large size of foreign material.

  On the other hand, recently, as the landfill of food waste is legally suspended, the whole amount is reused as animal and plant feed. However, as mentioned above, there are ingredients that cannot be used as feed in food waste. And requires separate collection. In addition, in order to recycle food waste, facilities should be provided for transporting food waste that has been separated and removed and processing it. There must be a certain number of places secured.

However, there is an inconvenience that a cost burden can be generated according to the discharge amount because the waste is discharged by a pay-as-you-go system when actually converting the waste into feed.
Moreover, when garbage is not processed immediately, especially in the summer, the decay rate is accelerated and various odors are generated, which causes disgust. For this purpose, there is a small garbage disposal device, and this garbage disposal device has already been proposed by the present applicant in Korean Patent No. 497287.

In this patent, the present applicant has proposed a configuration in which a variety of garbage is generated immediately or when a predetermined amount is collected, these are finely crushed, dried and reused.
FIG. 5 is a side sectional view showing a garbage disposal apparatus proposed by the present applicant, and is roughly divided into a case member 100 having an empty interior, a drum member 200 provided inside the case member 100, and the drum member. 200, a stirring means 300 rotatably provided in the interior of the drum 200, coupled to be mutually connected on one side of the drum member 200, and circulating, drying, pulverizing the garbage, and transferring the dried garbage to the outside The member 400 and the steam discharge member 500 are configured.

  More specifically, the drum member 200 and the transfer member 400 are inclined at a predetermined angle inside the case member 100, and an input port for introducing garbage is provided at the upper end of the drum member 200. A stirring means 300 is provided inside. A transfer screw 410 is provided inside the transfer member 400, and the stirring means 300 and the transfer screw 410 are repeatedly rotated forward and backward simultaneously by driving the motor 600. In addition, a heater 420 is attached to the transfer member 400 to dry the stirred garbage.

On the other hand, in the process of pulverizing, stirring and drying the garbage, steam containing a smelly odor is generated from the garbage, and this steam usually contains both a certain amount of oil and moisture. For this reason, this steam is forcibly separated and discharged through the steam discharge member. In the steam discharge process, the lower end of the discharge pipe 510 is connected to one side of a sealed box 520 in which a certain amount of water is stored as shown in FIG. Moisture is filtered together with oil contained in the vapor by condensation with water while passing through 521, and only pure gas is forcibly sucked by the suction means 530 and discharged through the discharge pipe 531.

  The present invention is to easily remove oil and moisture from steam generated during the garbage treatment while sequentially pulverizing, compressing and cutting the garbage in a drying furnace for stirring the garbage, and drying and deodorizing. There is an effect that the convenience of manufacture and installation can be provided by simplifying the steam discharge structure.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention generally includes a case member 10, a drum member 20, a transfer member 30, a drive member 40, a heating member 50, a steam discharge member 60, and a purification member 70. The case member 10 is provided with an input port 11 through which garbage is input from the outside, and is configured to cover the outside of the present invention.

  The drum member 20 has a cylindrical shape that is empty and open upward so that a certain amount of garbage can be collected. The drum member 20 is inclined at a predetermined angle with its upper end communicating with the charging port 11 of the case member 10. It is the composition which consists of. A stirring means 21 is rotatably provided in the drum member 20 near the bottom surface and one side surface. The stirring means 21 is fixed to the bottom surface of the drum member 20 and repeats forward and reverse rotation. Then, the garbage collected in the drum member 20 is stirred.

  The transfer member 30 has a configuration in which an upper end is opened while communicating with one side of the drum member 20, and a screw 31 is rotatably supported inside. In particular, the transfer member 30 is integrally connected to a lower side surface of the drum member 20 and partly communicates with the lower end portion of the drum member 20. The garbage collected in the drum member 20 by the forward / reverse rotation operation of the screw 31 provided is stirred and pulverized while being repeatedly moved between the drum member 20 and the transfer member 30, and finely pulverized through the upper end. Compressed garbage is discharged.

  The drive member 40 is configured to drive the stirring means 21 of the drum member 20 and the screw 31 of the transfer member 30. The drive member 40 includes a motor 41 as the drive means, and the driving force of the motor 41 is a reduction gear ( The power is transmitted between the stirring means 21 and the screw 31 via a power transmission means 42 such as a chain or a belt. The motor 41 of the driving means at this time uses a motor that can rotate forward and backward, stirs and grinds the garbage while repeating the forward and reverse rotations at a constant period, and the drum member 20 and the transfer member 30. The food waste is discharged to the outside by rotating in a circular direction and finally rotating only in one direction.

  The heating member 50 is configured to dry garbage, and is provided on the side of the transfer member 30 having a smaller diameter than the drum member 20. Therefore, the garbage guided to the transfer member 30 side is dried during the process of finely pulverizing the garbage while reciprocating between the drum member 20 and the transfer member 30.

  The steam discharge member 60 is configured to discharge steam generated from the process of being pulverized and dried by the drum member 20 to the outside. The steam generated from the drum member 20 usually contains oil, moisture, and a smelly odor, and if it is not immediately removed, it becomes a hotbed of the smelly odor, so that it is immediately discharged through the steam discharge member 60. To.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the steam discharge member 60 is composed of a pumping means 61, a first discharge pipe 62, a second discharge pipe 63, and a fourth discharge pipe 64, and particularly in the lower back portion of the case member 10. The storage groove 12 is provided in a shape recessed inside by a predetermined depth, and the upper end portion of the drum member 20 and one end portion of the upper surface of the storage groove 12 are connected by a first discharge pipe 62, The pumping means 61 provided at a predetermined height from the other end of the upper surface is connected by a second discharge pipe 63, and the pumping means 61 passes through the case member 10 in the horizontal direction through the third discharge pipe 63 and externally. In this configuration, a predetermined length is pulled out.

On the other hand, the storage groove 12 of the drum member 20 protrudes downward from the upper surface at a constant height between one end connected to the first discharge pipe 62 and the other end connected to the second discharge pipe 63. Thus, one or more partition plates 13 are provided. That is, the steam discharge member 60 sucks the steam generated from the pulverization and drying process of the garbage of the drum member 20 through the first discharge pipe 62 by the forced suction in the pumping means 61, and stores it with the first discharge pipe 62. The groove 12 and the second discharge pipe 63 are passed through the pumping means 61 so that the steam passing through the pumping means 61 is discharged to the outside through the third discharge pipe 64.
According to such a steam discharge member 60, the third discharge pipe 64 that discharges the steam substantially together with the pumping means 61 is positioned at the upper part of the case member 10, so that the steam is discharged more smoothly. It becomes possible.

The purification member 70 is a box body that can be housed in the housing groove 12 formed on the back surface of the case member 10.
The purifying member 70 has a shape that fits into the storage groove 12, and as shown in FIG. 3, the upper part is opened, and the bottom surface intersects with the partition plate 13 that protrudes downward from the upper surface of the storage groove 12. In order to avoid this, the partition plates 71 are formed so as to protrude upward at a certain height between the partition plates 13. The storage grooves 12 and the separation plates 13 and 71 of the purification member 70 are formed in a shape separated from the corresponding surface by a certain height in the protruding direction, and are pumped through the separated portions. Steam forcedly pumped by means 61 is allowed to meander and move.

  In addition, the space defined by the separation plate 71 of the purification member 70 is filled with a deodorizing means (not shown) such as a tourmaline or a ceramic ball so that oil and moisture from the moving steam can be removed. In particular, it is preferable to have a deodorizing function that removes odor from the vapor while further activating the separation action by adsorption.

As shown in the drawing, the separation plate 71 of the purification member 70 is preferably formed so as to be separated from the bottom surface at a constant height so that oil and moisture on the bottom surface are more widely distributed. In particular, the purification member 70 is detachably attached to the storage groove 12, and is connected to the case member 10 and the purification member 70 like a magnet or a locking portion so as to be prevented from being detached when coupled to the storage groove 12. It is preferable that a fixing means 80 is provided. Along with the purifying member 70, a recovery box 90 for receiving sewage that leaks finely from the drum member 20 and the transfer member 30 in front of the storage groove 12 of the case member 10 is provided. It is preferable that 90 is also provided so that it can be pulled out and can be cleaned.
On the other hand, an unexplained reference numeral 14 in the drawing is a collection box in which crushed and compressed and dried garbage discharged through the upper end of the transfer member 30 is collected.

Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention will be described.
The motor 41 and the pumping means 61 in the present invention are driven by a separate operation of the user. When a certain amount of garbage is accumulated in the drum member 20 and the switch is operated to enter the operation mode, the motor 41 repeats forward rotation and reverse rotation for a predetermined time. At this time, the agitating means 21 provided inside the drum member 20 acts to agitate so that the garbage stored in the drum member 20 is uniformly mixed, and the screw 31 of the transfer member 30 is a drum member. It moves between 20 and the transfer member 30 repeatedly to move the garbage and to dry the garbage while finely crushing it.

  When the motor 41 of the present invention is rotated forward and backward to grind and dry the garbage and then the motor 41 is driven in one direction, the garbage is compressed through the screw 31 while being collected on the screw 31 side, and is transferred to the transfer member 30. The compressed and dried garbage is discharged through the open upper end of the. Garbage discharged from the transfer member 30 is collected in a collection box 14 provided at a lower portion thereof. At this time, the collection box 14 is also provided with a storage structure, and when the garbage processing is completed, the compressed and dried garbage in the collection box 14 is separately post-processed, that is, a process of rotting. It can be used for composting.

  On the other hand, steam containing fine amounts of oil, moisture and odor is generated from the garbage while it is dried while being finely pulverized by driving the motor 41 for a certain time. At this time, the pumping means 61 of the steam discharge member 60 is driven simultaneously with the motor driving. As a result, the steam generated during operation is immediately discharged to the outside through the first discharge pipe 62, the storage groove 12, the second discharge pipe 63, and the third discharge pipe 64 as shown in FIG. . In other words, when the pumping means 61 is driven, the steam is forcibly sucked through the first discharge pipe 62 coupled to the upper end of the drum member 20 to flow, and the steam that has passed through the first discharge pipe 62 flows into the storage groove 12. Be guided. At this time, since the purification member 70 is coupled to the storage groove 12, the vapor flowing into one side of the storage groove 12 meanders through the storage groove 12 and the separation plates 13 and 71 of the purification member 70, and passes through each partition. Oil and moisture are adsorbed on the plates 13 and 71.

  The vapor of the pure gas component in which the oil and water are properly separated is forcibly transferred again to the pumping means 61 via the second discharge pipe 63, and the pure gas component is sent via the third discharge pipe 64 in the pumping means 61. Of steam is discharged to the outside or sewer pipe. In particular, regarding the steam that has passed through the purification member 70, when the oil and moisture adsorbed on each of the partition plates 13 and 71 reach a certain weight, the oil and moisture that have fallen down to the bottom surface of the purification member 70 due to their own weight. It is easy to be done, and is gradually laminated | stacked on the bottom face of the purification member 70. FIG. Even if the oil and moisture are removed from the steam passing through the purification member 70, the steam in the gaseous state still has an odor and is discharged to the outside through the second discharge pipe 63 and the third discharge pipe 64. These residual vapors can be discharged through a general ventilation duct or connected to a sewer.

  On the other hand, since the amount of oil and moisture collected on the bottom surface of the purification member 70 and the sewage collected in the collection box 90 are very small, they are dried at the bottom of the purification member 70 and the collection box 90 in a short time. It is therefore very convenient to manage because it does not require frequent cleaning.

  When the steam discharge port is formed at the upper part of the case member 10 in this way, the connection is easy even in a place where the sewage port protrudes upward at a predetermined height from the bottom part, and by preventing the backflow of sewage, Can be used. Then, when a definite amount of deodorizing means such as tourmaline or ceramic balls is filled in the purifying member 70, not only the separation of oil and moisture is further improved, but also the odor odor is removed, so that It is possible to prevent the smell of odor generated during waste disposal, and to use it with confidence while maintaining a cleaner state.
