Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an organic substance processing apparatus, and more particularly, to an organic substance processing apparatus for decomposing organic substances such as kitchen garbage (garbage) with microorganisms.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this type of organic material processing apparatus has an inlet for an organic material to be processed, a processing tank for storing the organic material together with a carrier, and an opening for opening and closing the inlet of the processing tank. A cover, a heating unit for heating the organic matter and the carrier in the processing tank, an exhaust unit having an exhaust fan for discharging air in the processing tank, and a rotatably disposed tank in the processing tank. There is known an apparatus provided with a stirrer for stirring an organic substance therein together with a carrier, and a drive unit for rotationally driving the stirrer.

[0003] In such an organic substance processing apparatus, one humidity sensor is provided in an upper space inside the processing tank without any contents (organic substances and carriers), and the humidity sensor is used to control the upper space. It detects humidity.

Then, when the detected humidity exceeds a certain value, the exhaust fan of the exhaust part is rotated to prevent the contents from becoming excessive in moisture. Is stopped to prevent the contents from drying out.

[0005]

However, in such an organic matter processing apparatus, since the humidity is detected by the humidity sensor provided inside the processing tank, the operation of the exhaust fan causes the humidity to be reduced, for example, during the rainy season. When high outside air enters the processing tank, regardless of the dry or wet state of the contents,
The value of the humidity sensor continues to indicate high humidity, and even when the contents are sufficiently dried, there is a possibility that the malfunction of rotating the exhaust fan without interruption (continuous operation of the exhaust fan) may occur.

Conversely, when low-humidity outside air enters the processing tank in winter, for example, by the operation of the exhaust fan, if the inside of the processing tank is at a high humidity, the humidity sensor detects the low humidity of the outside air. Due to the influence, the exhaust fan repeats the intermittent operation of rotation-stop-rotation. However, when the inside of the treatment tank is high in humidity, continuous operation is essentially required. Therefore, in such an intermittent operation, the contents will eventually become excessive in moisture, and the treatment cannot be performed sufficiently without discharging moisture from the treatment tank. It could cause deterioration.

Further, in such a conventional organic substance treating apparatus, when the stirring is performed by the stirrer, the moisture coming out of the contents being processed and the dust coming out of the dried contents spatter or fly up to the surroundings, so that the treatment tank is scattered. May adhere to the humidity sensor inside. Then, there is a possibility that the humidity sensor may malfunction or break down due to dew condensation of moisture attached to the humidity sensor or dust covering the humidity sensor.

Further, in such a conventional organic substance processing apparatus, since the humidity sensor is provided inside the processing tank, when the organic substance is introduced into the processing tank, the organic substance adheres to the humidity sensor, If a large amount of organic matter is accidentally injected into the inside, the humidity sensor will be buried and malfunction of the humidity sensor will occur, and in the worst case, the humidity sensor will be damaged by the pressing pressure during stirring. There was a point.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and a main problem thereof is to prevent the humidity sensor from malfunctioning or breaking down, and to dry or humidify the contents in the processing tank. It is an object of the present invention to provide an organic material processing apparatus capable of performing an appropriate organic material processing according to a state.

[0010]

According to the present invention, there is provided a treatment tank having an inlet for an organic substance to be treated, accommodating the organic substance together with a carrier, and a cover for opening and closing the inlet of the treatment tank. Body, a heating unit for heating organic substances and carriers in the processing tank, an exhaust unit having an exhaust fan and an exhaust passage for discharging air in the processing tank, and rotatably disposed in the processing tank. A stirrer for stirring the organic matter in the tank together with the carrier, and a drive unit for rotationally driving the stirrer, and further provided in an exhaust passage outside the processing tank, and the exhaust passage And a control unit for controlling at least one of a heating unit, an exhaust fan, and a driving unit based on a detection value of the humidity sensor. Organic matter treatment characterized by the following: Location is provided.

[0011] The treatment tank is for accommodating organic matter such as kitchen waste to be treated together with a carrier for microorganisms for decomposing organic matter, and has an inlet. Here, as the carrier, for example, a woody piece such as sawdust is preferably used. The lid preferably covers the opening of the processing tank so as to be openable and closable, and is preferably configured to turn on / off the power supply of the apparatus in conjunction with the opening / closing operation.

The heating unit includes, for example, a heater mounted on the outer surface of the bottom of the processing tank, and a power supply for energizing the heater. Organic matter in the processing tank heated by the heating unit is the microorganisms (especially aerobic microorganisms) held on the carrier.
Is mainly decomposed into water and carbon dioxide. The exhaust unit includes, for example, an exhaust fan, an exhaust passage, and an exhaust port, and discharges air in the processing tank to discharge water and carbon dioxide in the tank, thereby promoting decomposition of organic substances by microorganisms.

[0013] The agitator comprises, for example, a stirring shaft disposed so as to penetrate the opposite side wall of the processing tank, and a plurality of stirring blades provided on the stirring shaft. In such a configuration, the stirring blades stir the organic matter in the tank together with the carrier as the stirring shaft rotates. This agitation promotes the decomposition of organic substances by microorganisms. The rotation speed and the mode of rotation (forward rotation, reverse rotation, stop, etc.) of the stirrer are appropriately set according to the size of the processing tank, the amount of the organic substance to be charged, and the like.

The stirrer is driven to rotate by, for example, a rotator of a driving unit having a driving motor, such as a gear or a rotating disk.

The organic matter treating apparatus according to the present invention further comprises:
It has a characteristic exhaust humidity sensor and a control unit.

The exhaust humidity sensor is provided in an exhaust passage outside the processing tank, and detects the humidity of the exhaust in the exhaust passage. In the organic matter processing apparatus according to the present invention, since the humidity sensor is provided outside the processing tank,
It is possible to prevent the humidity sensor from malfunctioning or malfunctioning, and to eliminate the various risks and problems in the conventional organic substance processing apparatus as described above.

The control section controls at least one of the heating section, the exhaust fan, and the drive section based on the detection value of the exhaust humidity sensor. This makes it possible to perform an appropriate organic substance treatment according to the dry / wet state of the contents in the treatment tank.

In the organic matter treatment apparatus according to the present invention, the exhaust gas humidity sensor detects the humidity of the exhaust gas before the stirring by the stirring body and the humidity of the exhaust gas immediately after the stirring for a predetermined time. It is even more preferred that the unit is configured to perform said control by the difference between these two detected humidity.

Generally, in the organic matter treatment apparatus of the microbial decomposition type, the water content of the contents (organic matter and carrier) in the treatment tank is about 40 to 60%. Therefore, the humidity of the air layer (space) in the processing tank and the humidity of the exhaust passage are often equal to the humidity of the outside air. Therefore, it is difficult to determine the state of the contents.

Therefore, it is intended to determine the dry / humid state of the contents by detecting the humidity at the time of stirring by the stirrer where the humidity changes greatly.

That is, the difference between the humidity before and during the stirring is larger as the moisture content of the contents is larger, and is smaller as the moisture content is smaller. Therefore, the timing of detecting the humidity is set to be before the start of the stirring and immediately after the execution of the stirring. Then, the dry / humid state of the contents is determined based on the difference between the two humidities, and appropriate various controls are performed according to the state.

The organic substance processing apparatus according to the present invention detects the humidity of the intake air in the intake passage for introducing outside air into the treatment tank by operating the exhaust fan, in addition to the exhaust humidity sensor. It is more preferable that an intake humidity sensor is further provided, and the control unit is configured to perform the control based on a difference between two humidity detected by the exhaust humidity sensor and the intake humidity sensor.

In such a configuration, the humidity sensor for exhaust detects the dry / humid state of the contents in the processing tank, and the humidity sensor for intake detects the humidity of the intake air—the humidity of the outside air—in the intake passage. To detect. Then, the dry / humid state of the contents is determined based on the difference between the two detected humidity levels. For example, when the difference between the humidity levels is too large, it is determined that the content is excessive, and when the difference between the humidity levels is small enough. Judge that the contents are sufficiently dry-and perform appropriate various controls according to the state.

In the organic matter processing apparatus according to the present invention,
It is even more preferred that the exhaust humidity sensor and / or the intake humidity sensor are selected from a heat conduction type, a capacitance type and a resistance type. Further, the control contents of the control unit include the ON / OFF of the heating unit, the increase / decrease of the heat amount, the ON / OFF of the exhaust fan, the increase / decrease of the rotation speed, the ON / OFF of the drive unit, and the increase / decrease of the drive time. More preferably, it is one or a combination of two or more.
