Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a drainage basket in which raw garbage is put in a basket and only the water content of the raw garbage is discharged to the outside of the basket.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Raw garbage is a general term for garbage such as leftover food (specifically, vegetable scraps, fish heads and bones, fruit skins) produced by cooking food at home and restaurants. This food waste contains 70% to 80% of water, and it is desirable to sufficiently remove the water adhering to the food waste in order to effectively perform the subsequent treatment. Therefore, conventionally, the water is removed using a draining basket as shown in FIG.

In this drainage basket, a body 17 made of wire mesh is attached to the edge 10 of the basket, and a bottom 18 is also formed of wire mesh. Then, when you put the garbage into this drainage basket, only the water adhering to the garbage is in the body 1.
It will pass through 7 and bottom 18 and out of the drainage basket. In addition, the hanging part 11 for carrying is provided in the edge part 10. For forming the body portion 17 and the bottom portion 18, punching metal or the like is used in addition to the wire mesh.

The conventional state of use of the conventional drainage basket is usually as shown in FIG. The drainer basket is set in a state where the body part 17 and the bottom part 18 are suspended in the poly bucket 15 by hooking the edge part 10 of the basket on the upper end 16 of the poly bucket 15. This is a poly bucket 1
This is because if the draining basket is placed directly on the bottom surface of 5, the bottom portion 18 will be blocked by the bottom surface of the poly bucket 15 and the draining function cannot be sufficiently exerted.

Therefore, when the garbage is put into the draining basket in this state, the water adhering to the garbage is discharged from the basket and stored in the poly bucket 15, and the drained garbage remains in the basket. Then, when a predetermined amount of food waste is accumulated in the basket, the hanging tool 11 is used to take out the draining basket from the poly bucket 15 to dispose of the food waste therein and to dispose of the water in the poly bucket 15.

[0006]

However, in the conventional draining basket, since the entire body 17 and the bottom 18 are formed of the wire net, the water of the garbage is discharged from almost the entire basket, There is a problem in that when the draining basket is taken out of the poly bucket 15 or is carried while holding the hanging tool 11, water adheres to the clothes and shoes of the user and stains them.

Further, since the conventional draining basket is set in the poly bucket 15 with the edge 10 hooked on the upper end 16 of the poly bucket 15, the upper end 16 is covered with the edge 10, and in this state, the poly bucket. The lid of 15 cannot be closed, and the smell of food waste is diffused in the vicinity, which is not preferable in terms of hygiene.

Further, since the basket is almost entirely made of wire mesh, it is difficult to invert it and it is difficult to cleanly remove the food waste adhering to the inner wall of the basket from the basket. In addition to this, the wire mesh part tends to be clogged with fine garbage, which may cause a bad odor.However, in the conventional draining basket, the wire mesh area is large and the garbage is often clogged. There is also a problem that the work of removing raw garbage is troublesome.

According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the clothes and shoes of the user from being soiled when the draining basket is taken out of the poly bucket or the like and is transported, and at the time of use, it is possible to use the lid of the poly bucket. It is an object of the present invention to provide a drainage basket that can be easily taken out.

[0010]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the draining basket of the present invention is provided with a net-like surface portion on a part of the body and a part of the bottom portion subsequent to the body portion, and the net-like surface is provided on the bottom portion. It comprises a car body having an inclined surface that descends toward the portion, and an installation ring for mounting the car body to form a space below the bottom part. In the drainage basket of the present invention, it is preferable that the basket body is provided with an annular piece extending downward from the edge portion of the bottom of the basket body, and the annular piece is provided with a handle portion. Further, it is preferable that the handle portion is provided so as to be displaced from below the mesh surface portion.

[0011]

[Function] When garbage is put in the basket body, the water content of the garbage flows out of the basket body through the mesh surface portion. In other words, water does not go out from other than the part where the mesh surface part is provided,
The moisture of the food waste in such a portion is guided to the net-like surface portion along the inclined surface of the bottom portion and goes out from the net-like surface portion. Therefore, the drainage capacity does not decrease.

Further, since the car body is placed on the installation ring so as to form a space below the bottom, it is not necessary to hook the car body on the upper end of the poly bucket or the like when the car body is installed in the poly bucket or the like. The water discharged from the basket body is stored in a poly bucket through this space.
Since the basket main body and the installation ring are installed in a state in which they are inserted into a poly bucket or the like, it is possible to close the lid of the poly bucket or the like.

When an annular piece having a handle is provided at the bottom of the car body, holding the handle makes it easy to invert the car body and makes it easier to take out garbage. Furthermore, since the handle portions on both the left and right sides are held by different persons, it is easy for two persons to carry the basket body. When the handle portion is provided so as to be displaced from the lower side of the mesh surface portion, the handle portion is not contaminated by the water discharged from the mesh surface portion.

[0014]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 is a perspective view showing a draining basket according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing a configuration of a basket body, and FIG. 3 is a sectional view showing a usage state of the draining basket of FIG. .

The car body 1 has a body portion 2 and a bottom portion 3 below the edge portion 10. The body portion 2 is formed by a punching metal having a hole diameter of 3 mm to form 1/3 of the whole body to form a mesh surface portion 4, and the remaining 2/3 is formed of a stainless plate. Similar to the body 2, the bottom 3 is formed by punching metal with a hole diameter of 3 mm to form 1/3 of the whole to form a mesh surface portion 5, and the remaining 2 /
3 is formed of a stainless plate. The mesh surface portion 5
Are provided in a state of being connected to the mesh surface portion 4.

The bottom portion 3 is formed by inclining the stainless steel plate portion toward the mesh surface portion 5 to form an inclined surface 6.
That is, when the portion provided with the mesh-like surface portions 4 and 5 is the front surface portion, the inclined surface 6 is inclined toward the front surface portion. Thereby, the water on the inclined surface 6 is guided toward the front surface portion.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, an annular piece 7 is attached to the bottom portion 3 by welding or the like while extending downward from the edge portion thereof. The annular piece 7 has a tubular shape with the same outer diameter as the body portion 2, and has handle portions 8 provided on both left and right sides thereof (positions displaced from the lower side of the front face portion), and further, a lower portion corresponding to the front face portion. Key 9 protruding outward on the part
Is formed. It should be noted that whether or not the annular piece 7 is provided is arbitrary, but the car body 1 is formed so as to include the annular piece 7.

Subsequently, the installation ring 12 is formed in a cylindrical shape having an inner diameter into which the annular piece 7 can be fitted, and a plurality of protrusions 13 are provided on the upper portion of the inner wall thereof, and at the upper end of the ring. A recess 14 is provided by cutting out a part. The key 9 can be inserted into the recess 14.

Therefore, when the car body 1 is inserted into the installation ring 12 with the key 9 placed in the recess 14, the lower end of the annular piece 7 is locked to the projecting portion 13, whereby the car body 1 is It is held at a predetermined height from the lower end of the installation ring 12. By inserting the key 9 into the recess 14, the front surface of the car body 1 is positioned with respect to the installation ring 12. As described above, the drainage basket of the present invention has a two-stage structure including the basket body 1 and the installation ring 12.

Next, the usage state of the water draining basket of the present invention will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 3, the installation ring 12 is placed on the bottom surface of the poly bucket 15. At this time, the edge portion on the concave portion 14 side is placed facing upward. Then, the cage body 1 is placed on the installation ring 12 to form the space portion 19 below the bottom portion 3.

The height when the car body 1 is placed on the installation ring 12 is preferably lower than the upper end of the poly bucket 15. This is because the upper end of the car body 1 is the upper end 16
This is because the lid (not shown) of the poly bucket 15 cannot be closed when the height is higher. Therefore, the basket body 1 and the installation ring 12 are different from each other in the poly bucket 1 to be used.
Use a suitable height corresponding to the depth of 5.

Then, when garbage is put in the basket body 1,
The water adhering to the food waste flows out from the mesh surface portions 4 and 5 and accumulates in the poly bucket 15. The water discharged from the mesh surface portion 4 passes through the outside of the annular piece 7, and the water discharged from the mesh surface portion 5 reaches the bottom surface of the poly bucket 15 through the space portion 19.

Further, the water on the stainless steel plate portion is used for the inclined surface 6
It is guided to the mesh surface part 5 by this and goes out of the car body 1 from here. The water in the space 19 (water inside the installation ring 12) oozes out of the installation ring 12 through the gap between the bottom of the poly bucket and the bottom of the installation ring 12 in order to do this smoothly. You may make it provide a notch.

Next, when a predetermined amount of food waste is accumulated in the car body 1, the hanging body 11 is held and the car body 1 is lifted and taken out. At this time, the clothes and shoes of the worker are not soiled by avoiding the portions of the net-like surface portions 4 and 5, that is, the front portion, and lifting. It should be noted that even when the car body 1 is transported, the clothes and the like of the worker are not soiled by avoiding the front part. Also, when the car body 1 is heavy, it can be carried by two people by holding the handle parts 8 respectively.

Since the handle portion 8 is provided so as to be displaced from the lower side of the front surface portion, it is not contaminated by water coming out from the front surface portion. Further, since the annular piece 7 is located at a high position through the installation ring 12, the handle portion 8 is not contaminated by the water accumulated in the poly bucket 15.

The garbage in the car body 1 is taken out by holding the handle portion 8 and turning the car body 1 upside down.
Garbage adhering to the inner wall of the basket body 1 is removed at the net-like surface portions 4 and 5, including the jammed food waste by brushing, and at the stainless steel plate portion is simply wiped off. It

The water accumulated in the poly bucket 15 is disposed after the basket body 1 and the installation ring 12 are taken out.
At this time, the installation ring 12 is held by the protruding portion 13 and taken out to prevent the hands from getting dirty.

The draining basket of the present invention is not limited to being used by placing it in the poly bucket 15, but may be placed directly on the floor near the drainage groove for use.
In this case, the car body 1 is held at a predetermined height from the floor surface, and the water discharged from the car body 1 directly falls to the floor and then flows into the drainage ditch for treatment.

[0029]

As is clear from the above description, the water-draining basket of the present invention exhibits the following effects. Water in the basket body is collected by the slanted surface toward the mesh surface part (front surface of the basket body) and then comes out, so that the drainage capacity does not decrease. In addition, avoiding this mesh surface part, the basket body By holding, it is possible to prevent the clothes and shoes of the worker from being contaminated with the water of the garbage when taking out from the poly bucket or transporting. Since the basket main body and the installation ring can be set in the poly bucket, the lid of the poly bucket can be closed, and sanitary conveniences such as preventing the smell of food waste from leaking to the surroundings can be achieved.

Since the handle portion of the annular piece is provided so as to be displaced from the lower side of the mesh surface portion and is located at a high position by the installation ring, it can be prevented from being soiled by the water of the garbage. When the basket body is heavy, it can be easily carried by two people by holding the left and right handles respectively. By having the handle part, the basket main body can be easily turned upside down, and thereby the garbage can be easily taken out. Garbage that adheres to the inner wall of the basket can be easily wiped off with the stainless steel plate.Because the area of the mesh surface where clogging of garbage is generated is small, it is necessary to remove it. Can be done in a short time.
