Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a waste treatment device for collecting and treating waste.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a wood chip of about 10 to 20 mm is used as a bedding in a breeding room for animals such as dogs and mice for experiments. The chips laid in the breeding room absorb dirt such as feces and urine of breeding animals. Therefore, in order to clean the breeding environment of the breeding animals, it is necessary to regularly clean the breeding room such as exchanging chips used as bedding.

A vacuum cleaner is used to clean this kind of breeding room. Conventionally used vacuum cleaners collect waste of chips containing dirt by directly sucking it into a collecting bag arranged inside the cleaner body. And when the collection bag is filled with the collected waste,
It is necessary to remove this collection bag from the vacuum cleaner body and transfer the waste to another disposal bag.

[0004]

However, the collecting bag provided in the main body of the vacuum cleaner is restricted by the size of the vacuum cleaner, and a sufficiently large one cannot be used. Therefore, it is necessary to frequently remove and replace the collection bag, which deteriorates the cleaning work efficiency.

[0007] In addition, the dirt contained in the chips used in the breeding room contains a lot of sticky substances. If dirt having such viscosity adheres to the inside of the cleaner body, it becomes extremely difficult to remove the adhered dirt. In particular, since the vacuum cleaner uses electric parts such as an electric motor, it cannot be cleaned with water in consideration of electric leakage.

Further, if all of the collected waste is sucked and collected, the filter provided in the cleaner body easily becomes clogged, and it is necessary to clean the filter regularly. There is a problem that continuous operation cannot be performed for hours. Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a waste treatment device capable of treating waste by continuously operating for a long time.

[0007] Another object of the present invention is to provide a waste treatment device which makes it possible to easily collect and treat viscous dirt and waste containing water. Still another object of the present invention is to provide a waste treatment device in which cleaning management of the device itself is easy.

[0008]

A waste treatment apparatus according to the present invention, which is proposed to achieve the above-mentioned object, has a swirl flow generating section provided with a waste suction port, and a swirl flow generating section. A vacuum cleaner that is connected to the swirl flow generation unit via the first connection means to generate a swirl flow in the swirl flow generation unit, and a waste collection container that is disposed below the swirl flow generation unit in communication with the swirl flow generation unit. An impermeable and flexible waste storage bag to be loaded into the waste collection container, and second connecting means for connecting the suction port provided in the waste collection container and the vacuum cleaner. It is composed of

In this waste treatment device, when the vacuum cleaner is driven, the swirl flow generating section is sucked through the first connecting means, and the swirl flow is generated in the swirl flow generating section. The swirl flow generated in the swirl flow generation section sucks the waste through the waste suction port. The waste sucked into the swirl flow generation unit is dropped and collected in a waste storage bag loaded in a waste collection container arranged in communication with the swirl flow generation unit.

When the vacuum cleaner starts driving, the inside of the waste collection container connected to the vacuum cleaner via the second connecting means is sucked, and the waste storage container loaded in the waste collection container is stored. The bag is expanded so that it closely contacts the inner wall of the waste collection container.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A waste treatment apparatus to which the present invention is applied will be described below with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the waste treatment apparatus according to the present invention has a cylindrical swirling flow generating unit 1 having a closed upper end and an opened lower end.
It has. A suction cylinder 3 having a waste suction port 2 at its tip is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the swirl flow generation portion 1 so as to extend in the tangential direction. To the waste suction port 2 side of the suction cylinder 3, a suction unit 4 which is laid in an animal breeding room and sucks waste such as chips containing waste is connected. Further, at the center of the swirl flow generating portion 2, an auxiliary cylinder 5 having a cylindrical shape with the upper end surface closed and the lower end surface side open is provided. A first connecting hose 7 forming a first connecting means connected to the vacuum cleaner 6 is connected to the upper end of the peripheral wall of the auxiliary cylinder 5.

When the vacuum cleaner 6 is driven, the first
The air in the swirl flow generation unit 1 is sucked through the connecting hose 7 and the external air is sucked through the waste suction port 2. The external air is sucked through a waste suction port 2 which is disposed in the outer peripheral portion of the cylindrical swirl flow generating portion 1 so as to extend in the tangential direction thereof, whereby the swirl flow generating portion 1 is sucked into the swirl flow generating portion 1. The swirling flow A as shown by the arrow in FIGS. 1 and 2 is generated.

The swirl flow generating section 1 is arranged on a waste collection container 9 via a support frame 8. The waste collection container 9 and the swirl flow generation part 1 are connected so that the open lower end side of the swirl flow generation part 1 is connected as a connection part 10. A suction port 11 is provided on the lower end side of the peripheral surface of the waste collection container 9. A second connection hose 12 that constitutes a second connection means branched from the first connection hose 7 is connected to the suction port 11.

A waste storage bag 15 is loaded in the waste collection container 9 so as to cover the periphery of the opening 12a on the upper end side from the inner peripheral surface of the waste collection container 9. The waste storage bag 15 used here is made of a water-impermeable and flexible material, and is made of a synthetic resin sheet such as a polyethylene sheet.
Thus, the water-impermeable and flexible waste storage bag 15
By loading, the space between the inner peripheral surface of the waste collection container 9 and the waste storage bag 15 becomes a sealed space. The waste storage bag 15 can be detachably loaded into the waste collection container 9.

When the vacuum cleaner 6 is driven while the waste storage bag 15 is loaded in the waste collection container 9 as described above, the space between the inner peripheral surface of the waste collection container 9 and the waste storage bag 15 is driven. Air is sucked into the sealed space through the second connecting hose 12, and the waste storage bag 15 is expanded so as to be in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the waste collection container 9 to form a large storage space.

The waste treatment apparatus according to the present invention comprises a vacuum cleaner 6 and a waste collection container 9 installed on a carriage 17 provided with casters 16, and is freely movable. . On the carriage 17, a spare waste storage bag 15 is provided in parallel with the vacuum cleaner 6 and the waste collection container 9.
