Description

Detailed Description of the Invention The present invention relates to a kitchen waste processing machine that crushes and dehydrates kitchen waste and collects it in a dust collection section. The purpose of this is to prevent kitchen waste from remaining in the drain, reduce odors caused by putrefaction, and ensure smooth drainage.

Conventional kitchen waste processing machines crush kitchen waste and then centrifugally dehydrate it to recover it. At this time, the kitchen waste protrudes from the conical dehydration basket, adheres to the inner wall of the container of the kitchen waste disposal machine, and is further removed from the dehydration basket. As the garbage rotates, it is dragged and guided to the dust collection box, but after the processing is finished, some of the kitchen waste remains on the inner wall of the processing machine container, and if left unattended, it will rot and emit a foul odor.

In addition, ``The conical dehydration basket is installed in a vertical position, so when the dehydration basket becomes clogged, the water poured from above overflows from the upper opening of the dehydration basket and enters the dust collection box. The present invention eliminates these drawbacks, and one embodiment thereof will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, 1 is a sink tank, 2 is its drain port, 3 is the main body of the kitchen waste disposal machine attached to this drain port 2, and a drain pipe 4 and a motor 5 are attached to the bottom surface of the machine. 6 is made to protrude into the main body 3, and a spinner 7 is attached to its tip. A rotary cutter 9 that rotates together with the spinner 7 is attached by a pin 8 near the center of the upper surface of the spinner 7.
It is arranged so as to face a fixed cutter 11 provided at the lower end of the cutter 0. The spinner 7 has a vertical cylindrical wall surface 12 near the outer periphery of the fixed cutter 11, and a through hole 13 for passage of kitchen waste is provided in this wall surface. The spinner 7 has a conical net portion 14 that opens downward from the upper end of the cylindrical wall surface 12, and at the lower end of the conical net portion 14, there is a kitchen garbage reservoir whose cross section is narrowed inward. A portion 15 is formed. Reference numeral 16 denotes a collection tube installed on the lower surface of the main body 3, and its upper closed green part is provided with a cutout groove 16a, so that the spinner 7
They are grouped together in the outer green area.

Reference numeral 17 denotes a collection plate attached to the wall surface 18 of this collection cylinder 16 and the inner surface of the garbage storage part 15, and 19 represents the collection cylinder 1.
6 is a kitchen waste container connected to the lower part thereof, and a plastic bag 19 is placed inside.

In the above configuration, when the motor 5 is operated and kitchen waste is thrown into the kitchen waste input cylinder 1, the kitchen waste is transferred to the rotary cutter 9,
It is crushed by the fixed cutter 11, passes through the through hole 13 of the spinner 7 by centrifugal force, and is crushed by the net portion 14 of the spinner 7.
It is centrifuged and dehydrated.

This kitchen waste reaches the lower end of the spinner 7 due to centrifugal force and accumulates on the inner surface of the kitchen waste storage section 15, but the collection plate 18
As the spinner 7 rotates, the kitchen waste is pushed down and collected into the plastic bag 19 in the kitchen waste container 20 via the collection tube. Therefore, the kitchen waste does not adhere to the inner wall of the container of the main body 3, and is directly introduced from the spinner 7 into the collection section. Further, the water poured into the drain tube 10 from the drain port 3 passes through the through hole 13 of the spinner 7, drops directly downward, and is drained to the outside through the drain pipe 4.

That is, the water poured from the drain port 3 is sent to the spinner 7.
Since the water drips downward without passing through the net portion 14 of the spinner 7, even if the silk portion 14 of the spinner 7 becomes clogged, water flow will not be impaired and overflow will not occur. Further, in this embodiment, the wall surface 1 of the spinner 7 is attached to the outer periphery of the cutter 11.
2 and a large number of through holes 13 are formed therein, the through holes 13 act like a type of cutter in relation to the fixed cutter 11, which has the advantage of improving the crushing efficiency.

Further, since the collection plate 17 is attached to the collection cylinder 18 for collecting kitchen waste from the kitchen waste storage section 15, no special attachment member is required, and there is an advantage that the structure can be simplified accordingly. In this way, according to the present invention, since the crushed kitchen waste is directly collected from the spinner, the kitchen waste does not stick to the inner wall of the main body and emit a bad odor as in the past, and
Since the water poured from the kitchen waste input section is drained without passing through the spinner, there is no possibility of water overflowing even if the spinner becomes clogged, which has great effects.
