The crushing blade is arranged outside the bottom of the container support 9 of the container support 7.
An output shaft 21, which is an output unit for rotating 23, penetrates the bottom of the container 5 through the bottom of the container receiver 9. Also,
A planetary gear 22, which is an output unit attached to the bottom of the storage container 5 to rotate the storage container 5, is arranged in the middle of the output shaft 21. The planetary gear 22 is configured so that the storage container 5 rotates in a direction opposite to the rotation direction of the output shaft 21.

The crushing blade 23 is composed of a propeller-shaped blade having a generally sawtooth-shaped blade tip, and is attached to the tip of the output shaft 21 projecting inside the storage container 5 to rotate the storage container 5 in the rotating direction. It rotates in the opposite direction to. like this,
By providing the crushing blade 23 that rotates independently of the storage container 5 inside the storage container 5, the garbage that is difficult to spread only by rotating the storage container 5, for example, the relatively large solid kitchen waste is crushed and dried. Since it becomes easier, the drying efficiency is improved,
Drying time is reduced.

Further, by rotating the crushing blade 23 and the container 5 in opposite directions, the garbage can be crushed violently, and the time for making the garbage fine can be shortened. Further, since the rotation speed of the crushing blade 23 rotating in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the container 5 is relatively high, even if the rotation speed of the output shaft 21 rotating the crushing blade 23 is low, it is sufficient. A crushing effect can be obtained.

The storage box 24 has a substantially box shape, and is a container support portion.
7 is a storage portion that is disposed below 7 and stores dried kitchen waste that falls from the opening of the storage container 5 that faces downward. This storage box 24 can be put in and taken out through the door 4 of the housing 1, and if the kitchen is dried, the housing 1
You can remove it from the kitchen and dispose of it.
