Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a household kitchen waste processor that processes and composts kitchen waste mainly discharged from a kitchen.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION As shown in FIG. 2, a conventional kitchen waste composting device used at home has an input port 23 on the top of a substantially cylindrical case 22 with an opening 21 on the bottom. mouth 23 1
124, which is opened and closed by the case 22, is installed by digging slightly into the ground, and the kitchen waste is put into the case 22 together with the microorganisms.
The idea is to make compost by decomposing and fermenting it.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, the above-mentioned installation requires the ground and uses anaerobic microorganisms, which can cause excessive decomposition inside and produce a bad odor, and may not be suitable for composting. It was a rudimentary composting device, taking several months to complete, and it was difficult to use from the standpoint of actively composting kitchen waste.

The present invention solves these conventional drawbacks, and by providing a configuration suitable for composting kitchen waste, it can be installed even in areas without ground, does not require microorganisms, does not generate bad odors, and can be used for a short period of time. To provide a household kitchen waste processor that can reliably compost kitchen waste.

Means for Solving the Problem In order to solve this problem, the household kitchen waste disposal device of the present invention has an upper chamber side of a generally cylindrical outer case that has a partition wall inside and has two upper and lower chambers. An inlet for the material to be processed and an air outlet are provided in the lower chamber, and an outlet for the material to be processed and an air inlet in the lower chamber.The lower end is rotatably supported on the bottom of the lower chamber, and It penetrates through the , has a rotating handle on the top end, and is hollow inside! I! A pipe-shaped rotating support with suitable ventilation holes on the surface is provided, and the rotating support in the upper chamber has a plurality of rotating plates with a grid-like plate surface and the coarseness of the mesh of the grid gradually becoming finer as it goes downwards. Attach a plurality of spiral-shaped cutback plates, whose lower end surfaces are close to the partition wall and the bottom of the lower chamber and whose upper end surfaces are higher, to the lower chamber and the lower part of the rotating support in the lower chamber, so that the partition wall can be opened and closed at any time. A communication port is provided, and a backing plate is provided with one end fixed to the exterior case and the other end protruding directly above the rotary plate.

Function: With this configuration, the kitchen waste dropped into the upper chamber from the input port is sequentially sieved by the rotating plate, where it undergoes initial fermentation, and is pressed down by the backing plate due to the rotation of the rotating plate.
It is further sieved and reaches the partition wall, where it is cut back with a cutting board to continue the main fermentation, and when the quantity is concentrated, it is dropped into the lower chamber through the communication opening in the partition wall, where it is cut back again with a cutting board. It is aged, stored, and composted.

EXAMPLE Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be explained based on FIG. In FIG. 1, 1 is an exterior case, and 2 is a partition wall provided horizontally within the exterior case 1. The exterior case 1 is divided into an upper chamber 3 and a lower chamber 4 by this partition wall 2. 5 is a kitchen waste inlet provided on the upper surface of the outer case 1, and 6 is an air exhaust pipe. 7 is a compost outlet provided on the lower side wall of the outer case 1, 8 is an air intake port provided in the lid of the compost removal lower, and 9 is provided vertically through the partition I12 and the top of the upper chamber 3. A rotation support part that rotatably holds the lower end of the pipe-shaped rotation support 10; 11 is a handle fixed to the upper end of the exterior case 1 that protrudes above the exterior case 1 in order to rotate the rotation support 10; 12 is a pipe-shaped rotation support Ventilation holes appropriately provided on the walls of 10, 13.14. Is is a rotating plate fixed to the rotating support 10 and has a lattice surface made of expanded metal or the like whose mesh becomes gradually finer as it goes down; 16 and 17 are the lower parts of the rotating support 10 in the upper chamber 2 and lower chamber 3; The lower end surface is a partition with multiple cutback boards attached to each.
12 and is formed in a spiral shape with an upper end surface close to the bottom surface of the lower chamber. 18 is a communication port provided in the partition v2, 19 is an IFII leap shutter of the communication port 18, and 20 has one end fixed to the exterior case 1 and the other end connected to a rotary plate 13, 14.
It is a backing plate that protrudes directly above 15.

To explain the operation in the above configuration, kitchen waste dropped from the input port 5 falls onto the rotary plate 13, and those finer than the lattice on the plate surface of the rotary plate 13 fall onto the lower rotary plate 14, where they are sequentially sieved. Reach partition wall 2. On the other hand, the kitchen waste that remains on each rotary plate 13, 14, 15 ferments there, is held down by the backing plate 20 by the rotation of the rotary plate 13, falls to the lower stage smaller than the grid mesh, and is similarly sieved. It reaches the partition wall 2. The kitchen waste that has fallen onto the partitions 1 and 2 is turned back by the turning board 16 that moves with the rotation of the rotating support 10, and further fermentation continues.

In this way, the kitchen waste is sieved into fine particles in the upper chamber 3, and undergoes initial fermentation and main fermentation by cutting. Furthermore, the kitchen waste that has mainly fermented on the partition wall 2 is dropped into the lower chamber 4 through the communication 018 on the partition wall 2 by operating the opening/closing shutter 19 when it is collected in quantity. Note that the kitchen waste is allowed to fall through the communication 018 by rotating the turning plate 16.

The kitchen waste that has fallen into the lower chamber 4 is turned here by a cutting board 17 and aged and stored for composting, and the finished compost is taken out from the take-out lower and used for gardening, etc.

In addition, air enters the lower chamber 4 through the air intake port 8 and is heated by the heat released during the fermentation of kitchen waste (at a temperature of 50 to 60°C).
In the lower chamber 4, the air enters the rotary column 10 through the vent 12 and rises, flows into the upper chamber 3 through the vent 12 in the upper chamber 3, and is discharged from the air exhaust tube 6, creating a flow of air. Fermentation is further promoted by the flow.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the household kitchen waste processor of the present invention is suitable for composting kitchen waste, has a simple configuration, can be installed even in places with no ground, and can also be used with special microorganisms. It is unnecessary and does not generate bad odors, and kitchen waste can be reliably composted in a short period of time.
