BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a food waste processing apparatus for directly putting food waste into a bag from a sink installed in a kitchen, a kitchen, a hotel, a hospital, or the like and packing it into a bag.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 3, a conventional food waste processing apparatus has a drainage basket 2 made of a porous material such as a punching plate or a wire net in a drainage pipe 2 provided under a sink 1 of a sink. There was a garbage in the basket. The lower part of the drain tube 2 has a shape like a bowl that is turned down, and is a trap 4 which is usually called a "Wan trap". The double pipe structure allows water to stay and prevents odors and cockroaches from entering the sewage. Was configured to prevent. In the above apparatus, the garbage was left in the draining basket 3 until it was collected, and then it was transferred to a polyethylene bag or the like. Although not shown, it was stored in the trash box for storage until the garbage collection date. In addition, from sink 5 of water supply to sink 1
The water that had flowed to the sewage flowed on the surface of the garbage, flowed out of the holes of the drainage basket 3, passed through the trap 4, and was discharged to the sewage.

[0003]

However, with the above-mentioned conventional structure, in general households, the garbage in the drainage basket 3 must be transferred to the bag 3 to 4 times a day, which is a very troublesome work for the housewife. there were. In addition, there is a case where the food waste is directly touched with hands during this work, and harmful microorganisms of the rotten food waste adhere to the hands in the summer when the temperature is high, which may cause food poisoning, which is dangerous. Also, all the water thrown away in the sink 1 touches the garbage, and as if washing the garbage, some of the garbage will dissolve into the water. In other words, organic matter, which is the main component of food waste, is mixed in the wastewater in proportion to the time the food waste is left, raising the BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) that is a measure of dirt in the wastewater and polluting the river. It was also a cause of increasing the load on the sewage treatment plant.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above problems and to provide a food waste processing apparatus which reduces the amount of food waste processing work and is safe in terms of hygiene.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the food waste processing apparatus of the present invention has an upper end opened and is attached to a lower part of a sink of a sink, and a food waste drop port and a drain port are provided at a bottom part. From the drain, the packing provided at the food waste drop port, the valve body that abuts on this packing and opens and closes in a substantially horizontal direction, the valve cover surrounding this valve body and the spring provided at the bottom of the valve body. A shutter-type sluice valve, a trap part provided at the drain port, a drain pipe connected to the lower part of the trap part, and multiple holes on the side of the drain pipe, which is provided above the garbage drop port. The drainage cylinder and a bag provided under the garbage drop opening via a shirt-type sluice valve.

[0006]

According to the present invention, when the raw garbage is thrown into the draining cylinder when it is generated, the moisture of the raw garbage flows from the holes on the side surface of the draining barrel, and the solid content and the moisture are separated. Next, when the shirtter type sluice valve is opened by an appropriate means, either manually or mechanically, the garbage is dropped into the bag through the garbage dropping port and is stored.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 is a sink, and a drain pipe 6 having an open upper end is provided at the bottom of the sink. A raw garbage dropping port 7 and a drain port 8 are provided at the bottom of the drainage pipe 6, a bowl trap 9 is provided at the lower part of the drainage port 8, and a water pipe 10 is connected to the bottom portion. Further, a packing 11 is provided at the lower end of the food waste dropping port 7, and is a flat plate-shaped valve body 12 that opens and closes left and right, a valve cover 13 that covers the valve body 12 from above and below, and a valve body fixed to the valve cover 13 This constitutes a shirt-type sluice valve composed of a compression coil spring 14 that presses 12 onto the packing 11. Further, inside the drainage cylinder 6, there is provided a draining cylinder 15 which is placed on the raw garbage dropping port 7. The draining cylinder 15 has no bottom surface and has a plurality of holes 16 on the side surface. Further, the valve body 12 is moved left and right in the figure by the motor 17 to be opened and closed.

In the above structure, the garbage 15
Then, the water contained in the garbage flows out through the holes 16 on the side surface of the draining cylinder, and the drainage port 8 and the bowl trap 9
Drained through. That is, the water and solids in the food waste are separated as in the conventional food waste treatment device. Further, as shown in FIG. 2 after the garbage is put in, when the motor 17 is driven to move the valve element to the left to open the shirt-type sluice valve, the garbage is dropped by gravity from the garbage dropping port 7 and the bag 18
Entered and stored. After the garbage falls, the valve body 12 is moved to the right and the shirt-type sluice valve is closed, so that the draining cylinder 15 serves as a mere drainage passage. Further, since the valve body 12 is in close contact with the packing 11 by the spring 14, water is prevented from leaking from the food waste drop opening 7 to the storage bag 18. Further, the water discharged from the Karan 5 is led to the sewage through the drainage port 8 and the bowl trap 9.

According to the structure of this embodiment, the garbage is put into the draining cylinder 15 and is packed in the bag 18 only by opening and closing the shirt-type sluice valve. Therefore, it is necessary to transfer the garbage to the bag 18. Therefore, the processing work of food waste is reduced. In addition, the raw garbage is only touched at the time of input, and even if the raw garbage is touched, at this point the raw garbage is part of fresh food and is not spoiled, so it is hygienic. It is safe because hands are not soiled by various bacteria. Further, since the garbage can be packed in the bag 18 by a simple operation of opening and closing the shirt-type sluice valve immediately after it is put into the draining cylinder 15, the time for contacting the water flowing from the sink 1 is short, which is a main component of the garbage. Since the amount of organic matter dissolved in the wastewater is small and BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) does not increase, there is an effect that the river is not polluted and the load on the sewage treatment plant is not increased. Since the valve body 12 is brought into close contact with the packing 11 by the spring 14 with a constant force, it is possible to prevent water from leaking into the storage bag 18 from the raw garbage drop opening 7 during drainage. In addition, the packing 1 moves with the movement of the valve body 12.
Even if 1 is worn, the valve body 12 is always pressed against the packing 11 with a constant force by the spring 14 so as to be in close contact with the packing 11.
