Description

  The present invention relates to a technique capable of efficiently drying an object to be processed such as garbage while suppressing generation of bad odor and the like.

Conventionally, when the garbage stored in the garbage storage part is dried and discarded, the odor remaining in the dried garbage or the odor adhering to the inside of the garbage drying processor is opened indoors. As a technique for solving such a problem, there is provided a discharge means for discharging the air in the garbage storage section, and there is a problem between the garbage storage section and the discharge means. There is known a technology (see, for example, Patent Document 1) in which a catalyst deodorizing device is provided in the discharge path, and the odor remaining in the garbage is quickly released to the outside through the catalyst deodorizing device and the odor is rapidly and greatly reduced. ing.
In addition, after detecting the end of drying of garbage, etc., a predetermined amount of adsorbent is put into the garbage drying container by an adsorbent feeding device, and the odor components generated from the dry waste are adsorbed by the adsorbent to reduce odor. Such a technique (see, for example, Patent Document 2) is also known.

There wasn't.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a deodorizing / drying apparatus having a relatively simple configuration, low equipment costs, and good deodorization efficiency.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a deodorizing / drying apparatus in which an object to be processed containing moisture is stored in a container and then dried while deodorizing, and the container for storing the object to be processed is provided. Can be rotated around a horizontal axis, and a part of the air in the container is continuously extracted to a predetermined portion of the container during the deodorizing / drying process, and moisture contained in the extracted air is removed by the moisture removing unit. After the removal, an air circulation mechanism that deodorizes the air from which moisture has been removed by the deodorization unit and returns the air to the container again is connected.

And after accommodating processed materials, such as garbage, in a container, for example, warm air etc. are introduced in a container and the processed material in a container is dried, but in the meantime, an air circulation mechanism is operated continuously. By repeating a part of the air in the container and removing moisture from the air taken into the air circulation mechanism, it is possible to suppress the generation of bad odors and to treat the inside of the container very efficiently. The product can be dried. Also, by rotating the container around the horizontal axis as necessary, depending on the type of object to be processed, the object to be processed that is hidden inside and slow to dry can be exposed to the surface, and the drying efficiency can be improved. it can.
At this time, the stirring effect of the object to be processed can be further enhanced by vertically rotating the container around the horizontal axis.

In the present invention, as the deodorization part of the air circulation mechanism, a method of deodorizing by heating the circulating air is adopted.
By adopting such a heating method, for example, when hot air or the like is introduced into the container to dry the object to be processed, the amount of air in the container is reduced even if the amount of hot air or the like introduced into the container is reduced. The temperature can be kept high, and as a result, the amount of exhaust gas discharged from the exhaust section or the like can be reduced. For this reason, the deodorizing mechanism of the exhaust part for discharging outside can be reduced in size and simplified.

Moreover, in this invention, the stirring means which stirs a to-be-processed object was provided in the said container.
Then, if the object to be processed is stirred at an appropriate time, it is possible to prevent a problem that the object to be processed is solidified, and even if the object is solidified, it can be broken by breaking the mass by stirring. .
Here, the position where the stirring means is provided, the specific form of the stirring means, and the like are arbitrary.

When drying or deodorizing the object to be processed containing moisture, the object to be processed is accommodated in a container that can be rotated around the horizontal axis, and the object to be processed containing moisture is exposed to the surface by rotating the container at an appropriate timing. In addition, if the air in the container is circulated by the air circulation mechanism and the moisture removal part and the deodorization part are removed in the meantime, there is no problem that bad odor leaks to the outside. It can be deodorized and dried. Further, since the container can be dried while the rotation of the container is stopped depending on the type of the object to be processed, it can be appropriately dried according to the type of the object to be processed.
At this time, if a heating means for heating the circulating air is employed as the deodorizing part of the air circulation mechanism, the temperature of the air in the container can be kept high. The deodorizing mechanism such as the exhaust part can be reduced in size and simplified.
Further, by providing the stirring means in the container, the object to be processed can be prevented from becoming hard and the drying efficiency can be increased.
