The present invention relates to an exhaust control device for a food waste treatment device, and more particularly, to a food waste disposal device for reducing food volume and reducing food odors by removing air and food odors by air circulation drying. In the configuration of the configuration to exhaust the odor generated during processing to the outside in conjunction with the blower fan is configured to control the exhaust hole by the blocking means is invented to improve the treatment work efficiency and ease of use.

In general, a certain amount of residues (food waste disposal) are discharged from each home or restaurant every day, and the residues are used as livestock feed or only mixed with water through a simple strainer and then discarded.

This food treatment method increases the amount of food waste, and if the food waste is not disposed of immediately, there is a problem of generating a bad smell and polluting the surrounding air.

In addition, the configuration of the food waste treatment apparatus that is commonly used is largely divided into a drying treatment method and a fermentation treatment method for processing after the food waste is stored and fermented for a predetermined period.

In the case of the drying treatment method is a method mainly used in homes or small restaurants where a relatively small amount of food waste is discharged, and removes and removes water from food waste within a short time.

In addition, the method of fermenting and treating food waste is a method used in a large-scale restaurant, which has a relatively large amount of food waste discharged. It's the way food waste is handled within.

Therefore, in recent years, a lot of miniaturized food waste disposal apparatus that can be used easily at home has been proposed.

However, since the reverse displacement is relatively made of a plate-like material, the shaking phenomenon is continuously generated by the flow of air by the blower fan during the processing operation, and thus there is a closed end caused by noise.

In addition, the configuration of a conventional food waste processing apparatus is because the blower fan is continuously operated for a predetermined time, that is, a set time for removing the odor inside, even when the contents to be treated are not stored, due to the shaking of the reverse displacement caused by this. The noise generated is continuous.

On the other hand, even in the configuration of the conventional food waste has been proposed to circulate while continuously supplying the outside air to the inside to remove the odor inside the processor, in this case it is simply a configuration that introduces the outside air through the blowing fan However, since there is no function to selectively control and control the exhaust port, there is a closed end that significantly reduces the processing efficiency and workability.
