[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a processing container for kitchen garbage, which is capable of processing garbage such as vegetable scraps from homes at homes.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to dispose of kitchen garbage to be discarded at home or the like, a lower portion of a bottomless container body is buried in soil,
2. Description of the Related Art Containers for putting garbage into the container through an opening opening at the top of the container body, closing the opening with a lid, disassembling the garbage, and using the garbage as fertilizer are widely used for treating containers of garbage.

In such a kitchen waste disposal container,
Since the input garbage originally contains 60 to 70% of water, the inside of the garbage deposited in the container body is filled with the water oozing out from the animal and plant cells of the garbage, and the air is shut off. It becomes anaerobic, and as a result of decomposition by anaerobic bacteria, an odor is generated.

In order to solve this problem, water vapor generated from the garbage in the container body when the temperature is high in the daytime or the like becomes water droplets, which condenses on the inside of the container body, especially on the inner surface of the upper lid, and falls into the garbage pile. As a means of eliminating the water droplets outside the garbage stack and reducing the water content in the garbage stack, the present applicant has filed Japanese Utility Model Application No. 60-193385 (Japanese Utility Model Application 3-12).
No. 721) has been proposed.

[0005] This drainage means is a bottomless, buried lower part in the soil, and a water drop receiving groove along the inner side of the input port of the hollow cylindrical container body whose upper input port for discarding kitchen waste is closed by a lid. Provided, a lid having a downward slope along the outer peripheral direction, and a lid attached with a water drop falling guide plate on the inner surface hem, is placed over the input port of the container body, and a drain outlet pipe connected to the water drop receiving groove, It is provided along the inner surface of the container body.

In this garbage disposal container, when dew attached to the lid becomes water droplets, it flows down along a downward gradient provided along the outer peripheral direction of the lid, and after entering the water droplet receiving groove,
It is discharged to the outside of the container body through the drainage take-out pipe, and when garbage is fermented and decomposed, water drops are prevented from dropping on the sediment and become anaerobic fermentation by anaerobic bacteria, preventing the generation of odor. Now you can.

[0007]

In the above-mentioned kitchen waste disposal container, water droplets condensing on the lid covered by the container body are collected in the water droplet receiving groove, and the drainage is provided along the inner surface of the container body. Drained from the pipe into the soil.

[0008] However, when the end of the drainage pipe is buried in the soil, the boundary area between the pipe and the soil for the water in the pipe to penetrate into the soil is small only in the pipe area, and the penetration rate of the water in the pipe is reduced. Is slow. Further, the drainage pipe increases the number of components, and the life of the drainage pipe is short with respect to the container body.

Further, since a gap is formed between the charging port and the lid of the container body, the odor in the container body leaks to the outside, and the odor in the container body drifts outside and is not only unpleasant. However, external insects enter the container body through this gap and lay eggs.In addition, some insects have a short generational change, so they proliferate rapidly by hatching of these eggs, and when the lid is opened, these insects Popping out was not only unsanitary but also unpleasant.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems in the conventional kitchen waste disposal container, and closes the gap between the charging port and the lid with water collected by the dew condensation and the water droplet receiving groove. The inside and outside are shut off to prevent the odor in the container body from spreading to the outside, prevent insects from entering the container body, and prevent the insects from growing inside the container body.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problem, and an object of the present invention is to directly insert a lower end of a lid into a water droplet receiving groove to receive water droplets adhering to the back surface of the lid. Since the water accumulates in the groove, the inside of the container body is shut off by the accumulated water droplets, thereby preventing the release of offensive odor and the invasion of insects into the inside, and the water absorption in the water droplet receiving groove. An object of the present invention is to provide a processing container for kitchen waste in which a bad odor is not released to the outside due to moisture permeating the water absorbing ring even if the container body is inclined by disposing the ring.

[0012]

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention relates to means for processing containers for garbage for achieving the above-mentioned object, the means being provided with an inlet for garbage formed on the upper surface thereof, which is provided with an opening. Garbage that is covered with a tapered lid with a lower end that is closed and that is covered with a bottomless hollow cylindrical container body, and prevents the water generated from this kitchen garbage from returning to the container body. In the processing container of (1), a water droplet receiving groove is formed by an outer wall having a height lower than an inner wall on an outer periphery of the charging port, and a water droplet guiding portion serving as a lower end of the lid is inserted into the water droplet receiving groove. Things.

[0013] Further, an overflow port whose height is one step lower may be formed in the outer wall of the water droplet receiving groove in the container body, and a cut is formed in the lower edge of the water droplet guide portion of the lid, or the water droplet receiving portion is formed. It is desirable to arrange a water absorbing ring such as a sponge in the groove.

[0014]

In the processing container for kitchen waste of the present invention, since the lid for closing the opening of the kitchen waste in the container body is formed in a tapered shape with a widened lower end, the waste generated from the kitchen waste in the container body. The water condenses on the inner surface of the lid, flows down along the inner surface, and is stored in a water droplet receiving groove into which a water droplet guide plate formed on the lower end or the rear surface of the lid is inserted.

The water droplets stored between the lower end of the lid or between the water droplet guide plate and the inner wall of the water droplet receiving groove shut off the inside of the container body and the outside air, overflow from the outer wall lower than the inner wall, and extend along the outer surface of the container body. Water does not flow down into the container body, and water uniformly penetrates into the water-absorbing ring arranged in the water droplet receiving groove. The internal odor does not leak to the outside.

[0016]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A first embodiment of a kitchen waste disposal container according to the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.
On the upper surface of the container body 1, which is formed of a synthetic resin such as polyethylene and is formed in an inner cavity of a bottomless quadrangular cylindrical shape that spreads downward, an input port 1a for garbage is formed.

[0017] At the upper end of the container body 1 to form the inlet 1a, the center of the lower surface of the water droplet receiving grooves 1b formed by the outer wall 1b ₁ and the inner wall 1b ₂ are continuously provided, the outer wall 1b ₁ is It is lower than the upper end of the inner wall 1b _2.

Then, the water droplet receiving groove 1b is connected to the 4
The outer wall 1b ₁ in corners cut is one step lower overflow opening 1b _3, further it lowers the container body of the overflow opening 1b ₃ 1
A water drop down groove 1c is formed in the lower portion of the outer surface of the liquid crystal display.

The lower end of the lid 2, which is made of the same material as the container body 1 and has a pyramid shape, reflects light such as transparent, translucent, white, or metallic light and has a small temperature rise due to solar heat. It is a vertical water drop guide 2a inserted into the receiving groove 1b.

The kitchen waste is put into the container main body 1 through the input port 1a and is closed with the lid 2. The generated water vapor is applied to the lid 2 when the lid 2 is cooled at night or the like.
The dew forms as water droplets, flows down the lid 2 and travels along the water droplet guide 2a to be stored in the water droplet receiving groove 1b. Then, the accumulated garbage in the container body 1 is shut off from the outside air by the water droplet guide 2a having the lower end inserted into the filled water droplet receiving groove 1b.

For this reason, bad odors such as kitchen garbage in the container body 1 leak to the outside, or pests cannot enter the container body 1, and when the lid 2 is opened, the pests multiply. , The discomfort of jumping out can be eliminated.

[0022] Then, when this way water droplets surface which has flowed into the water droplets receiving groove 1b has reached the overflow opening 1b ₃ or more and may overflows from the overflow port 1b _3, the container body through the water droplets flow down the grooves 1c 1, flows down along the outer surface of the container body 1 and penetrates into the ground outside the container body 1, so that it does not return to the garbage in the container body 1 and generate odor due to anaerobic fermentation.

Further, since the lid 2 is made of a synthetic resin having a color such as transparent, translucent or white which is difficult to absorb heat, the temperature of the lid 2 rises due to solar heat, and the lid 2 does not form dew. No water droplets are supplied to the water droplet receiving groove 1b, or
The water in the water droplet receiving groove 1b disappears due to the evaporation of the water droplets in the water droplet receiving groove 1b by the heat of the water, and the inside of the container body 1 can be prevented from communicating with the outside.

A reinforcing rib 1d for preventing deformation of the container main body 1 is formed at the lower end inside the container main body 1, and a grip 1e is formed on two opposing surfaces of the container main body 1 so as to be recessed. Thus, the container body 1 can be easily carried.

A handle 2b is also formed on the top of the lid 2, and a mounting piece 2c for mounting the pesticide 3 is integrally formed on the back surface of the top.
The disk-shaped insect-controlling agent 3 is detachably attached thereto.

Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the embodiment of FIG. 5, the container main body 1 is formed in a frustoconical shape, and the water droplet receiving groove 1b is formed on the top surface of the container main body 1 in the previous embodiment. It is formed so as to protrude outside the inlet 1a on the top surface.

The lid 2 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 has a handle 2b formed on the top surface and stays at a plurality of positions at the lower end of a water droplet guide 2a formed at the lower end of the lid 2 having a shape close to a conical shape. water is one which formed notch 2a ₁ for passing.

FIG. 7 shows a case where the container body 1 of the above-described embodiment has a pyramid shape, whereas the container body 1 of this embodiment has a conical shape. The shape of the lid 2 was also conical corresponding to the container body 1. In this embodiment, the same operation and effect as in the previous embodiment can be obtained.

FIG. 8 shows a ring 4 made of a material that absorbs water, such as a sponge, over the entire circumference of the water droplet receiving groove 1b.
The water drop guide 2a of the lid 2 is in contact with the water absorbing ring 4. By arranging the water-absorbing ring 4 in this manner, when the container body 1 is installed at an angle or tilts during use, water flows out from the lower-side water droplet guide groove 1b and the water flows into the higher-side water droplet guide groove 1b. Can be prevented from disappearing, and therefore, the emission of offensive odor due to the loss of moisture can be prevented.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 9, the water drop guide 2a, which is the lower end of the lid 2 of the previous embodiment, is inserted into the water drop receiving groove 1b. A cover 2d extending to the outer periphery of the opening is formed so that the pest
A water guide plate 2e that enters the water drop receiving groove 1b is formed integrally with the back surface of the lid 2 so that the water guide plate 2e comes into contact with the water absorbing ring 4. In the same manner as in the embodiment of FIG. 8, the emission of offensive odor is prevented.

[0031]

According to the present invention, since the communication between the inside of the container body and the outside can be cut off by the water droplet receiving groove storing dew condensation on the lid as described above, the odor in the container body leaks to the outside, or Insects enter the container body, lay eggs, proliferate by hatching, prevent the discomfort of insects popping out when the lid is opened, and cause condensation on the lid to return to the kitchen garbage. Generation of offensive odor and the like due to anaerobic fermentation can also be prevented.

Further, by disposing a water-absorbing ring such as a sponge in the water-drop receiving groove, the ring can always be made to contain water. Even in this case, moisture is present in the water droplet receiving groove, and therefore, there is an effect that a bad smell does not leak outside.
