Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to improvement of sinks, and in particular, to the treatment of garbage generated in kitchens and the like.

Conventionally, raw garbage generated in the kitchen and the like has been stored in a plastic bag placed in one corner of the sink and disposed of together with the plastic bag in a garbage container when it reaches the required amount.

However, these garbage contain a lot of water,
There was a terrible odor.

Furthermore, since the strength of the plastic bag is insufficient, it is easily torn, and when the plastic bag is transferred to a garbage container, there is an inconvenience that liquid from the garbage may fall onto the floor from the torn portion.

In order to eliminate this inconvenience, the present invention aims to make it possible to drain food waste in a sink and to store the food waste in a sealed manner.

The technical means of the present invention for solving the above problems will be explained using the reference numerals used in the embodiments described below. A cylinder 10, a rotary cylinder 14 rotatably housed within the cylinder.
and a packet 23 removably housed in the rotary cylinder,
Furthermore, a rotary cylinder 14 protruding from the bottom of the cylinder 10
A centrifugal separator connected to the shaft 15 of the centrifugal separator via a one-way clutch device is connected to the shaft 15 of the centrifugal separator. The through hole is located in a concave portion 8 formed in the surface portion 3, and is sealed so as to be freely openable and closable by a lid body 9 having a thickness matching the depth of the concave portion. It is composed of a transmission means for transmitting this external force to the one-way clutch 16 provided on the shaft portion 15, and a return spring for returning both the transmission means and the external force applying portion to the initial position.

The above technical means of the present invention operates as follows.

The raw waste is put into the packet 23 through the through hole 7 by opening the lid 9.Then, when the lid is closed and the manual drive means is driven, the rotary cylinder 14 and the packet 23 are driven to rotate, and the contents of the raw garbage are removed. Water is transferred from packet 23 to rotating cylinder 14 to cylinder 1
- The garbage inside the packet 23 is drained to the outside through the drainage path.

When driven by the human power driving means, the rotating cylinder 14 and the driving means transmit power through the one-way clutch device, so even if the driving force is no longer applied, the rotating cylinder 14 continues to perform its rotational draining action.

Further, since the manual drive means is provided with a return spring for restoring it to its initial state, each part returns to its initial state after the external drive force is released.

Therefore, repeated driving operations can be performed.

From the above-mentioned effects of the above-mentioned technical means, the present invention has the following unique effects.

The moisture in the garbage can be drained every time the garbage is put in, and this water is drained through the drainage channel, and the cylindrical body 10 that houses the packet 23 is sealed by the lid 9, which prevents unpleasant odors from the garbage. Does not leak outside.

Since the garbage stored in the packet 23 is in a drained state, there is no fear that the garbage juice will drip onto the floor when the packet 23 is taken out together with the packet 23 and transferred to another garbage container.

Furthermore, since the top surface of the lid body 9 coincides with the top surface 3 of the top plate 2, the top surface of the lid body 9 can be used as it is as a cooking table of a sink.

In addition, since the driving means of the centrifugal separator is driven by external human force, no electrical energy is required and no extra energy is consumed.

Hereinafter, details of embodiments of the present invention will be explained based on the drawings.

Fig. 1 shows a cutaway perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention.
A sink 5 is formed, and a cavity 6 for storing garbage is formed below one of the top parts 3, and corresponds to a through hole 7 provided in the top part 3.

The through hole is bored in the recess 8, and a lid 9 fits into the recess and closes the through hole 7 in an airtight state, and the thickness of the lid is adjusted appropriately. In the set and closed state, its upper surface coincides with the top surface portion 3.

Therefore, in this state, the lid body 9 including the top surface can be used as a cooking table or draining table.

A bottomed cylindrical body 10 is disposed in the empty chamber 6, and the periphery of the upper opening thereof is joined to the back surface of the top plate 2 in an airtight manner,
The bottom part 11 and the drain pipe 12 of the sink 5 are communicated with each other by a connecting pipe 13, and water etc. that collect in the cylinder body 10 are discharged from the connecting pipe via the drain pipe 12.

The structure inside the cylinder 10 is constructed as shown in FIG. A rope 1 is wound around a pulley 17 attached to a one-way clutch device 16 protruding from the bottom 11 and attached to its lower end.
8 is connected to a handle 20 disposed on the front side of the empty room 6 for storing raw garbage via intermediate cars 19 and 19.

The rotary cylinder 14 has a large number of through holes 21, 21 drilled in its entire area, and a plurality of ribs 22, 22 protruding from the inner circumferential surface, and the packet 23 inserted into the rotary cylinder also has a plurality of ribs 22, 22 protruding from the inner peripheral surface. Matching ribs 24, 24 are provided so that the packet is fixed within the rotating barrel 14 in the inserted state.

Therefore, the packet 23 rotates integrally with the rotary cylinder 14.

The lid 9 can be opened and opened with one side as a fulcrum as shown in Figure 1.
A single-opening type that closes or a recessed part 8 that is removable.
It is also possible to use a type that can be simply inserted into the interior.

To explain the operation and effect of the above embodiment in more detail, when the lid body 9 is closed, its upper surface constitutes the upper surface of the top surface portion 3, and can be used as a normal sink. Odors from the garbage are blocked by the lid 9 and will not diffuse into the room.

Next, the lid 9 is opened to throw food waste generated during cooking in the sink 5 into the packet 23.

Thereafter, when the lid body 9 is closed and the handle 20 is pulled, the rotary cylinder 14 transmitted through the rope 18 rotates, and the packet 23 simultaneously rotates integrally with the handle 20.

The rotary cylinder and the packet 23 have a large number of through holes 25, 25.
is disposed, moisture in the garbage is removed from the packet 23 and further from the rotary cylinder 14 to the cylinder 1 due to the centrifugal force of the rotation.
It is separated into 0 and flows out from the communication pipe 13 to the discharge pipe 12.

Incidentally, since the rope 18 is linked to the pulley 17 which is linked to the shaft portion 15 via the one-way clutch device 16, even if the handle 20 is stopped at its final pull-out position (double-dashed line in FIG. 1), After that, the rotating cylinder 14 and the packet 23 continue to rotate together, and when the handle 20 is released, the unwinding spring 26 interposed between the pulley 17 and the fixed part pulls it back to its original state. However, even in this case, the rotation continues.

Therefore, by repeating the above operation, the amount of rotation can be adjusted, and by repeating the above operation every time food waste is put in, the food waste, etc. will always be stored in a drained state.

Furthermore, since the packing 27 is interposed between the cylinder 10 and the shaft portion 15, there is no fear that the moisture separated from the packet 23 into the cylinder 10 via the rotary cylinder 14 will leak to the outside. .

When a certain amount of food waste, etc. in the packet 23 is reached, the packet 23 is taken out from the rotary tube 14 and disposed of, but since the food waste is in a drained state, there is no inconvenience of the water content dripping out when carrying it. Moreover, it will also contribute to improving the incineration efficiency of public garbage incineration facilities.

On the other hand, since an energy source such as electricity is not used as the motive power for centrifugal separation of water, it will be very useful even in the future when the energy situation is severe.

In the case of the above embodiment, the rotary cylinder 14 is driven by rope transmission, but it is also possible to adopt a gear type, a crank type, etc., and a foot type drive may be used instead of the method of the embodiment in which the handle 20 is pulled. method is also possible.

In the illustrated embodiment, the connecting pipe 13 at the bottom of the cylindrical body 10
If a bell-shaped trap device is installed at the mouth 27 of the drain pipe 1,
The odor flowing back into the cylindrical body 10 from 2 through the communication pipe 13 is also blocked, and the odor control effect is further improved.

Furthermore, if the recess 28 for opening the lid 9 is formed between the recess 8 and the sink 5, the water stored between the lid 9 and the periphery of the recess 8 can flow out into the sink 5 through the recess. This makes it even more convenient.
