Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a food waste disposal container used for decomposing food waste with an effective microorganism group in each household.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a treatment means for treating raw garbage into fertilizers and other substances that can be effectively used, it is known that raw garbage is decomposed with a group of effective microorganisms (so-called EM bacteria). It is used by adding fermenting materials such as rice malt, molasses, etc. and a predetermined effective microorganism group to raw garbage, fermenting in an air-shielded state, solid-liquid separation, and using the liquid and fermented material as fertilizer and deodorant. is there. A dedicated container for carrying out the above-mentioned EM bacteria treatment in each home is commercially available. Basically, a solid plate can be solid-liquid separated using a perforated plate or a perforated container, and the whole container is sealed. An extraction part for the separated liquid is provided in the lower part of the.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The fermentation treatment with EM bacteria is performed in an air-shielded state, so that the container needs to be sealed, and the container is sealed so that the smell of raw garbage is not scattered around. However, inside the container, gas is generated due to the progress of fermentation, and the pressure inside the container increases. For this reason, the lid or the container portion may be deformed due to the increase in pressure inside the container, and further, the separated liquid oozes out from the separated liquid extraction portion. Deformation of the lid, etc. makes it inconvenient for the next use, and in order to prevent the separation liquid from seeping out, it is necessary to use a separation liquid extraction section that has a robust structure with excellent pressure resistance and a high degree of sealing.

[0004] However, providing a separation liquid take-out portion having a robust structure in a simple household waste treatment device at home increases cost and results in excessive quality. Therefore, the present invention proposes a novel processing container that prevents odor and can sufficiently cope with a simple separated liquid discharge valve mechanism.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In the container for treating garbage according to the present invention, a leg portion is provided below a rectangular box-shaped container portion, an inclined concave portion is formed on the bottom surface of the container portion, and a liquid discharge valve mechanism portion is provided at the lowest position of the inclined concave portion. A container body provided with a lid locking mechanism, a perforating member laid inside the body, and a seal portion that abuts the upper edge of the container portion to enable the container portion to be hermetically sealed and at an appropriate location. And a lid body provided with a relief valve mechanism.

[0006]

[Action]

 The inside of the container of the main body is equipped with a perforation member, and the inside of the container is fermented in a sealed state by adding raw garbage, fermentation materials such as rice malt and molasses, and predetermined effective microorganism groups, and capping the lid. When fermentation is carried out, the separated liquid drips from the perforating member and stays in the inclined recessed portion, and if necessary, the discharge valve mechanism is operated to take it out to the outside for use. Since it decomposes by fermentation, it is used as compost. In particular, the fermentation gas generated in the container is released to the atmosphere by the relief valve mechanism when the pressure increases. Therefore, the pressure inside the container does not rise abnormally, and even if a simple liquid discharge valve mechanism is adopted, the separation liquid does not seep out.

【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. The food waste disposal container shown in the embodiment of the present invention comprises a container body A, a perforating member B, a lid C, and a handle D. In the container body A, a leg portion 2 is provided below a rectangular box-shaped container portion 1, an inclined concave portion 3 is formed on the bottom surface of the container portion 1, and a liquid discharge valve mechanism portion 4 is provided at the lowest position of the inclined concave portion 3. , The locking mechanism 5 of the lid C is attached to the upper side edge of the main body, and the shaft coupling mechanism portion 6 of the lid C is provided at the upper edge of the main body. It is formed as a molded product.

In the liquid discharge valve mechanism portion 4, the inclined recessed portion 3 is formed by an inclined surface 31 and a side wall 32 that is raised from the lowermost position of the inclined surface 31, and the side wall surface 32 communicates with the lowermost position. In addition to projecting a discharge port 41 in the shape of a pipe, a discharge port 42 is vertically provided at a bottom surface position in the middle of the discharge port, and a separately formed cock body 43 is mounted. In the cock body 43, a groove-shaped discharge portion 432 corresponding to the outlet 42 is provided in a cylindrical portion 431 having a size tightly fitted to the discharge port 42, and an operating knob 433 is provided at one end of the cylindrical portion 431. Is provided with a retaining projection 434 at the other end, and the tubular portion 431 is press-fitted and tightly inserted into the discharge port 41, and the retaining projection 434 is locked to the side wall surface 32. .

The locking mechanism 5 of the lid C is formed into a hook-like body that is locked to the upper surface of the lid C when the main body A is crowned by connecting the bases to the upper portions of both side surfaces of the main body A. The axial coupling mechanism portion 6 of the lid C is provided with a mounting plate 62 provided with a bearing portion 61 having an upper opening at the outer peripheral portion of the upper edge of the container portion 1 of the main body A. It will be done. The perforating member B is formed by forming a large number of small holes, is installed inside the container portion 1, and is stopped in the middle of the container portion 1.

The lid C is composed of a lid plate 7 sized to cover the container portion 1 and a relief valve mechanism 8 provided at an appropriate place on the upper surface of the lid plate 7. The lid plate 7 has a seal on the outer periphery of the back surface. In addition to providing 71, a shaft portion 72 is provided at a position corresponding to the shaft coupling mechanism portion 6, and the shaft portion 72 is fitted and attached to the bearing portion 61 so that the lid C can be swung open and closed freely. The relief valve mechanism 8 has a recess 81 formed in the upper surface of the lid plate 7, a valve opening 82 is bored in the recess 81, and the valve body 83 that is placed in the recess 82 to close the valve opening 82 is prevented from coming off. The leg 84 formed in a shape is provided below, the leg 84 is inserted from the valve port, and the valve body 83 is attached to the valve port 82. The handle D is attached to the main body A.

Thus, each member is mounted on the main body A and used. Above the perforating member B in the container part 1, raw garbage, a fermentation material such as rice malt, molasses, and a predetermined effective microorganism are used. A group is added and stored, and the lid C is capped and sealed to perform fermentation processing. When additional garbage is added, the lid C is swung to open and close. There is an advantage that the lid can be easily opened and closed for the additional loading operation of dust X and the like, and the emission of odor when the lid is released can be prevented. When the raw garbage X is fermented, the separated liquid Y is dropped from the perforation member B by the decomposition of the raw garbage X and slightly dehydrated, and stays in the inclined concave portion 3.

Since complete fermentation takes about 1 week to 10 days, the cock 43 is operated to take out the separated liquid Y from the outlet 42 and use it as a deodorant or a cleaning agent. Particularly, in the liquid discharge valve mechanism portion 4 shown in the embodiment of the present invention, the discharge port 41 is provided at the lowermost position of the inclined recessed portion 3 and the cock body 43 is provided with the groove-shaped discharge portion 432. Therefore, the whole amount of the separated liquid Y retained in the inclined recessed portion 3 smoothly flows out to the outflow port 42.

Further, during the fermentation of the raw garbage X, the fermentation gas Z is generated in the container part 1 and the pressure in the container part 1 is increased. When the pressure in the container portion 1 increases, the valve body 83 is lifted by the pressure of the gas Z, the blockage of the valve opening 82 by the valve body 83 is released, and the fermentation gas Z is released to the outside air through the valve opening 82. . Therefore, the fermented gas Z is kept in the container 1 until the pressure rises to a predetermined level, so that the bad odor of the garbage X does not constantly dissipate and becomes uncomfortable, and the increase in the pressure in the container 1 causes It is also possible to prevent the separation liquid Y from seeping out from the discharge location.

Further, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and a proper relief valve mechanism may be provided at the same time as the lid is closed, and a concrete example of the lid sealing means and the relief valve mechanism is described. The structure of the liquid discharge valve mechanism 6 is not limited to the groove-shaped discharge portion 432, and is not provided in the cylindrical portion 43a as shown in FIG. When the hole-shaped discharge part 432a is adopted and the discharge port 41 is formed lower by the thickness of the cylindrical part 431 so that the cylindrical part 431 does not hinder the outflow of the separated liquid Y, the inclined recessed part 3 of the separated liquid Y is formed. The emissions from can be complete.
