The present invention relates to a food waste treatment apparatus having a simple structure and excellent dehydration treatment, and more particularly, a food waste dewatering property is excellent, as well as multiple stages of drainage, and forward and reverse rotation of the blade means and the screw rotating body. It is possible to control the operation of the device when the motor is overloaded to extend the service life of the device, while it is easy to discharge the device of food waste through dehydration and grinding, and particularly relates to a very compact food waste treatment device as a whole.

In general, food waste generated in the kitchen of a home or restaurant contains odors along with water, so it is very difficult to properly dispose of them by simple separate collection.

In particular, food wastes generated in households, which occupy a considerable amount of food waste, have to be stored at home instead of free disposal at that time according to the separate collection. In this case, most households use a separate container to store odors. There were several problems such as occurring badly.

In particular, it is very difficult to separate and separate the severely uneven separator.

In addition, food waste generated at home is recycled or finally landfilled through an incineration process such as incineration.However, it is not easy to secure the landfill site and incinerate food waste that is not sufficiently moisturized. In this situation, due to incomplete combustion, various harmful substances are emitted, which causes other environmental problems.

Therefore, in recent years, it is possible to remove moisture from food wastes that cause odors and to dry and crush them to remove various problems such as odors generated from food wastes, and to recycle dry crushed food wastes for other purposes. Interest in food waste disposal devices has been concentrated and proposed.

For example, a food waste disposal apparatus is proposed in Korean Laid-Open Patent Publication 2006-0008516, Utility Model Registration No. 20-0405262, and the like.

Of course, other food waste disposal apparatuses are known in addition to the above publications.

However, the conventional food waste treatment apparatus proposed in the known publications, etc., has the following problems.

For example, the known conventional food waste disposal apparatuses were vulnerable to the dehydration effect of the food wastes, and therefore, were introduced to the dry crushing side in a state of less dehydration, so that odor generation and crushing failure due to moisture were easily generated.

In addition, the operation of the blade for moving the food is limited, and since the screw rotating body discharging the food to the outside of the machine is mostly operated in a slightly inclined form horizontally, dehydration is inferior and the overall movement of the food waste in the machine Was not smooth either.

Above all, the known conventional food waste disposal apparatus has been largely complicated in structure and not compact for easy use in a narrow space at home.

For example, the sink bowl-type food waste disposal devices installed under the sink's drain are not compact due to many factors, such as complicated structure, poor drainage safety, or poor mobility when food waste gets stuck inside the machine. Was.

The present invention has been made in order to achieve the above object, the purpose of which is not only excellent dehydration of food waste, but also multi-stage drainage, and can be rotated forward and reverse rotation of the blade and screw rotating body motor overload By controlling the operation of the apparatus in order to extend the service life of the apparatus, while facilitating the apparatus discharge of food waste through dehydration and grinding, and to provide a very compact food waste treatment apparatus as a whole.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, the food waste processing apparatus of the present invention is basically a sink-ball type device connected to a lower portion of a sink (not shown), and receives food waste in a separate container at the sink drain, and then transfers it to a food waste storage container. It eliminates inconvenience and facilitates dehydration and pulverization and then discharges to the outside of the apparatus, thereby facilitating post-food waste disposal.

In particular, the food waste treatment apparatus of the present invention is characterized in that the overall structure is very compact, so that it can be easily installed even in a narrow space below the sink drain, and in particular, to prevent backflow due to poor drainage, even when the device malfunctions. It has a multi-stage safety drainage structure.

In addition, by controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the blade means or the screw rotating body in the device, when food waste is caught in the constituent means, the motor overload is not continuously made, thereby extending the service life of the device.

In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the whole structure of the food waste processing apparatus 1 of this invention is shown in front and structural view, and is shown in a plan view and a bottom perspective view in FIG. 3 and FIG.

For example, as shown in Figures 1 to 4, the food waste treatment apparatus 1 of the present invention, the main body 10 is largely put in the food waste, discharged after crushing and dehydration, and the main body ( 10) the blade means 30 is rotatably provided on one side of the inside and the blade means 30 configured to enable the in-device movement to the discharge side after the first crushing and draining the food waste put into the temporary storage, and the inside of the main body 10 It is provided to be driven to rotate to the other side, and the food waste discharge means 50 for discharging the food waste passed through the blade means 30 to the outside of the device body while dehydrating, and the main body 10 It is characterized in that it comprises at least one provided with a water outlet 70 for discharging the water removed from the introduced water or food waste.

In particular, the food waste treatment apparatus 1 of the present invention is installed inclined at an angle of θ so that the input side is lifted up relative to the basic horizontal plane B, as shown in FIG. The water (water) collected from the introduced water and the food waste is smoothly discharged from the first outlet 72 of the lower body 20 which is disposed directly below the screw rotating body side of the water outlet 70.

Incidentally, the inclined mounting structure of the apparatus of the present invention can install the screw rotating body, which is the discharge means 50, which will be described in detail below almost vertically, so that dehydration and secondary crushing properties can be increased. As it moves up and is discharged, it enhances dehydration and crushability compared to the structure of a screw rotating body which is almost horizontal or slightly inclined.) Since water introduced into the device is smoothly guided to the first outlet 72, drainage is improved. It is to let.

For example, in the food waste processing apparatus 1 of the present invention, when food waste is put into the main body 10, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the two flat blades of the blade means 30 are straight. Since the food waste is temporarily stored, the food waste is temporarily stored, and the water contained in the food waste and inflowed water are smoothly discharged to the outside of the apparatus without being mixed with the food waste at the first outlet.

This operation is described again in FIG. 6 below.

Then, when the blade means 30 is moved to move the discharge means 50, that is, the screw rotating body while the first crushed food waste, the discharge means 50 while dehydration and secondary while raising the food waste almost vertically Pulverize and discharge to outside

Therefore, the food waste treating apparatus 1 of the present invention is to provide an apparatus in which the apparatus has a compact structure and which greatly enhances dewatering, pulverizing and draining functions.

Next, with reference to the drawings in detail with respect to the main body and the blade means and the discharge means and the outlet, which is an important component of the present invention.

First, FIGS. 1, 2 and 4 and 5 show the main body 10 of the present invention.

The main body 10 of the present invention, the blade means 30 is disposed inside and the first body 14 is provided with a food inlet opening 12 on one side, and the first body 14 and It consists of a second body 18 which is integrally formed and at least protrudes higher than the first body corresponding to the installation length of the discharging means 50 and the food waste discharge opening 16 is formed.

At this time, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the main body 10 of the present invention is composed of the first, second body 14, 18 formed integrally with each other, the first body 14 is The blade means 30 composed of a pair of first and second blades 34 and 36 is formed in an elliptical shape so as to be disposed therein.

In addition, the second body 18 integrally with the first body 14, the screw rotating body consisting of a discharge means 50, that is, a long elongated rotary body 52 and a screw 54 installed on the outer peripheral surface thereof. Corresponding to the cylindrical shape is formed to extend upward.

2 and 5, the lower part of the first and second bodies 14 and 18 of the main body 10 is opened for the internal assembly of the blade means and the screw rotating body. The lower body 20 is assembled to the opened portion in which ovals and circles are integrally formed in accordance with the first body and the second body.

And, as shown in Figure 4, the first and second body and the lower body of the assembly portion is provided with a rubber packing (shown in dotted lines and not indicated by a separate code) which is a sealing member to block leakage.

On the other hand, the first and second bodies and the lower body of the main body of the present invention is provided with a synthetic resin material such as polyethylene (PE), glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), which maintains the strength while maintaining the corrosion resistance Can be.

In addition, the food waste treating apparatus 1 of the present invention has a compact structure and facilitates its assembly and disassembly, if necessary, for example, all of the portions indicated by reference numeral 'P' in FIGS. 2 shows the fastening pieces to which the body and the lower body and the input guide means 22 and the discharge guide means 24 are fastened. Such fastening pieces are the respective components, that is, the first and second bodies, the bottom body, and each guide. The assembly and disassembly of the means is simply carried out with a screw or fitting structure.

Therefore, the food waste treating apparatus 1 of the present invention makes it possible to simply assemble and disassemble the body and the inducing means, which are casing structures, and such a structure allows internal cleaning or maintenance of parts during use of the sound plant waste treating apparatus. Will facilitate.

In particular, since the device of the present invention is provided in an assembly with a minimum volume of such components, it will make it possible to provide a device that is very compact in appearance and size of the device.

Next, FIGS. 1 and 2 show the food waste input and output means 22 and the discharge guide means 24 of the apparatus of the present invention.

That is, the induction guide means 22 for injecting food waste falling from the sink drain port directly into the apparatus of the present invention is removable at the inlet opening 12 side of the first body 14. It is provided.

In addition, the discharge opening 16 of the second body 18 is provided with a discharge induction means 24 for inducing dehydration and external discharge of pulverized food waste.

At this time, the induction guide 22 is formed in a circular shape so as to be tightly attached to the sink plate in the lower portion of the sink drain in the upper portion, the discharge guide means 24, the discharge guide means 24 of the present invention if necessary The food waste disposal apparatus 1 is provided with a connecting pipe connected to the next drying machine, crusher, and the like.

Next, FIGS. 1,2 and 4 illustrate the water outlet 70 of the present invention, wherein the water outlet 70 of the present invention has one side (screw rotating body) of the lower body 20 of the main body. And a first outlet 72 integrally protruded from directly below the lower side.

Therefore, as described above, since the device is inclined and inclined in the horizontal plane B as shown in FIG. 2, when food waste and water drained from the sink flow into the device, water is collected at the first outlet 72. While draining smoothly.

That is, in the device of the present invention, the first outlet 72 provides the basic outlet function of the device.

Of course, although not shown in a separate drawing, the first outlet 72 is of course connected to the sink sewer pipe through a separate connection hose.

Next, as shown in FIGS. 1,2 and 4, the water outlet 70 of the present invention, the second is installed in the lower portion of the induction guide 22 attached to the first body inlet opening of the main body It further comprises an outlet 74.

Therefore, since the second outlet 74 is positioned higher than the first outlet 72, the blade means 30 is initially set in a straight line, and water passing holes are formed, so that the food waste is injected. While the water is temporarily stored in front of the first and second blades of the blade means 30 in the lower space of FIG. 3, only the introduced water is drained from the first outlet 72 described above, but when the amount of the inflow water is large, the second outlet ( At 74).

Next, as shown in FIGS. 1,2 and 4, the water outlet 70 of the present invention is disposed at a lower end of the food waste input guide means 22, a predetermined height, for example, higher than the blade means It further comprises a three outlet (76).

That is, the third outlet 76 has too much water flowing into the device so that the first and second waters accumulate excessively at the inlet side of the device, or in the event of emergency that the drainage is not smoothly drained due to a malfunction of the blade means. When the water fills up to a certain level, it acts as a safety valve for final drainage.

As a result, the food waste treating apparatus 1 of the present invention further includes a second outlet and a third outlet in addition to the basic first outlet, so that a large amount of water is drained from the sink and overflows even when a device malfunction occurs. It is to prevent completely.

Next, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, the first to third outlets 72, 74, 76 consisting of the water outlet of the device of the present invention, the food waste is discharged to the outside of the device through the outlet Screen members S (mesh) are arranged on the openings.

And, as described above, although not shown as a separate reference in the drawings, in the food waste treatment apparatus of the present invention, the sealing seals for preventing leakage are assembled to the site where the components are fastened together.

Next, FIGS. 1,2 and 4,6 show blade means 30 which is an important component of the food waste treating apparatus 1 of the present invention.

That is, as shown in Figures 4 and 6, the blade means 30 of the present invention, the first and second, which are installed in association with the rotation drive in the interior of the first body 14 of the main body 10, respectively It consists of blades 34 and 36.

Therefore, in the device of the present invention, the blade means is provided in a twin flat plate type for crushing and moving the input food waste while the first and second blades 34 and 36 rotate.

As a result, most of the blades provided in the existing food waste device can be simply crushed in a circular cross-section. However, the blades of the present invention are twin-shaped and flat-shaped. Since it is rotationally driven in one body, it is possible to temporarily store the input food waste and to effectively crush the device firstly, and the rotational area of the blades can be enlarged to increase the processing capacity of the food waste compared to the device size. will be.

For example, the first and second blades 34 and 36 are set to be in line with each other at the initial stage of operation of the apparatus, and when food waste is put in, the first and second blades 34 and 36 are moved to the screw rotating body, which is the discharge means 50. While not temporarily storing it, it is allowed to be discharged to the first outlet 72 along the lower body 20 due to the inflow of water or slope (due to the installation of the device).

Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the first and second blades 34 and 36 of the blade means 30 of the present invention rotate in opposite directions (for example, the first blade is clockwise and the second blade is Counterclockwise), while temporarily storing the food waste, which has been temporarily drained, and then drained to the direction of the screw rotating body of the discharge means 50 in the direction of the arrow, thereby enabling secondary grinding and dehydration through the discharge means.

Next, FIG. 7 shows the first and second blades 34 and 36 of the blade means 30 of the present invention in more detail.

That is, as shown in FIG. 7, the centers of the first and second blades 34 and 36 of the present invention are driven by the motors 32 and the gears 38a-38d as shown in FIG. 7. Holes 34a and 36a through which drive shafts 37a and 37b are inserted and assembled are formed through.

And, both ends of the blades are provided with wings 34b, 36b staggered with each other.

In addition, the blades of the present invention have a plurality of through-holes 34c and 36c through which water passes during temporary storage of food waste.

Next, the driving of the first and second blades 34 and 36 of the apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2 and 6 and 7.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the axis of the first drive motor 32 vertically installed on the upper side of the first body 14 of the main body 10 of the apparatus main body 10 toward the first blade side is the first as shown in FIG. 7. It is connected to the drive gear 38a on the drive shaft 37a which is inserted into the center hole 34a of the blade 34.

6 and 7, two driving gears 38a are provided in the drive gear 38a so as to sequentially engage with each other in the guide jaw 38 '(see FIGS. 2 and 5) formed in an elliptical shape on the upper portion of the first body. The driven gears 38b are arranged to mesh with each other, and finally the driven gears 38d are disposed on the driven gears and other drive shafts 37b assembled in the central hole of the second blade 36.

The lower ends of the driving shafts 37a and 37b of the first and second blades are supported by the support jaw 21 formed concave in the lower body 20.

Thus, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, when the first drive motor 32 on the first body of the main body is driven clockwise, the first blade 34 rotates clockwise integrally with the drive gear. And the driven gear meshed simultaneously with the two driven gears engaged with the drive gear rotates in the counterclockwise direction, so that the second blade 36 on which the driven gear shaft 37b is assembled is driven to rotate in the counterclockwise direction. .

As a result, the introduced food waste is temporarily stored by the first and second blades, which are kept in a straight line at the initial setting so that the water passes through the plurality of water passage holes 34c and 36c provided with the blades by the inclined device. Drained through the first outlet 72 through, and then, by driving as described above, the first and second blades are rotated in opposite directions to each other, while primary waste is collected while collecting food waste in the center, and continuously discharged. It is pushed towards the screw rotating body, which means 50, to enable device ejection.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 7, the first and second blades 34 and 36 of the present invention are driven to rotate in opposite directions, and wings 34b and 36b are opposite to each other. Since the food waste is caught between the blades less smoothly and crushed more smoothly than without the blades, it is easily reversed if the food is caught between the first and second blades that are driven forward. You can get rid of stuck food waste.

Therefore, it is a matter of course that the first drive motor 32 for driving the blade of the present invention uses a motor capable of forward and reverse rotational driving. The first drive motor 32 is the first body 14 of FIG. 5. A square part, which is a lower part of the body of the motor, is screwed to the fastening piece P ′ protruding perpendicularly to the upper part and is assembled to the device.

Next, FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show the food waste discharge means 50 for secondary crushing and dehydration while vertically discharging the first crushed food waste in the food waste processing apparatus 1 of the present invention.

That is, the food waste external discharge means 50 of the present invention is vertical to the inside of the second body 18 protruding upward from the first body in a cylindrical shape of the main body 10 with respect to the second body. It is a screw rotating body composed of a rotating body 52 and a screw 54 integrally formed along its outer circumferential surface to be rotated and driven to stand.

Therefore, when the rotary body 52 is rotated counterclockwise, the food waste moved by the first and second blades by the screw 54 is moved up and down almost vertically, so that the second body outlet 16 and the discharge guide means ( Through 24).

On the other hand, looking at the driving of the screw rotating body as the discharge means of the present invention, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, the first drive motor to one side of the first drive motor 32 of the first body 14 The second drive motor 56 is disposed in a direction opposite to that, that is, the motor drive shaft is upward.

At this time, as shown in Figure 3, the upper body square portion of the second drive motor 56 is screwed to the fixed plate 55 is fixed to the second body horizontally, and is connected to the shaft of the second drive motor 56 And a drive gear 57a rotatably installed on the stationary plate 55 is engaged with the driven gear 57b rotatably installed on the stationary plate.

And, as shown in Figure 2, the driven gear 57b is connected to the upper shaft portion 52a of the rotating body 52 of the screw rotating body, the lower shaft portion 52b is the support groove 21 of the lower body 20 Is supported).

Therefore, the power generated by the second drive motor 56 is transmitted to the shaft of the rotary body 52 through the drive gear and the driven gear so that the rotary body 52 and the screw 54 integrally rotate in the second body. Driven.

On the other hand, both the first drive motor 32 for driving the blade of the present invention and the second drive motor 56 for driving the screw rotating body are motors running forward and backward, and an example of the device control unit not shown separately in the drawings For example, the drive can be controlled by being electrically connected with the PLC.

Next, Figure 8 shows in detail the form of the rotating body 52 and the screw 54 of the screw rotating body which is the discharge means 50 of the present invention.

That is, as shown in Figure 8, the rotating body 52 of the screw rotating body of the present invention is formed in the lower diameter (d1) smaller than the upper diameter (d2) to the outer surface of the rotating body 52 as a line If it is displayed, it becomes C2, and if the wall surface of a 2nd body is C1, the space | interval between a rotation body and a wall surface will become narrow from the lower part to upper part.

On the contrary, the screw 54 has a shape in which its protruding width D decreases further from bottom to top.

In particular, since the screw rotating body, which is the discharge means 50 of the device of the present invention, is installed and rotated almost vertically with respect to the second body, the dehydration and smoothness of the water (water) contained in the food waste can be smoothly removed. In addition, the secondary crushability is increased by increasing friction between the food waste and the screw or the inner wall of the body caused by the vertical rise of the food waste.

Next, Figure 9 shows the characteristic structure of the screw of the screw rotating body of the present invention.

For example, FIG. 9A shows the rotating body 52 'forming angle θ1 of the screws 54' in a conventional food waste disposal apparatus, and FIG. 9B shows the screw 54 of the present invention. The forming body θ2 of the rotating body 52 is shown.

That is, the screw forming angle of the present invention is increased more than the conventional screw forming angle.

Therefore, since the screw of the present invention is formed to be inclined more than conventionally, the surface frictional force of the food waste is lower than that of the conventional screw 54 ', which is smaller than the friction of the food waste with the body wall surface.

As a result, the food waste is able to reduce the friction with the screw surface and the surface friction force with the wall to facilitate the vertical upward movement of the food waste in the second body, and to reduce the motor load according to the total rotation of the screw rotating body. do.

In this case, the angle θ2 of the screw 54 is preferably about 60 ° to 80 °. If the angle is smaller than 60 °, the screw surface frictional force is increased as in the prior art. If the angle is larger than 80 °, the food waste slips on the screw. This is because the slip phenomenon is intensified and food waste is excessively concentrated on the wall of the body, which may reduce the crushability or make it difficult to vertically move the food waste.

Next, FIG. 10 shows a rib 90 integrally installed in the vertical direction inside the wall surface of the second body 18 in the food waste treating apparatus 1 of the present invention.

That is, the rib 90 can prevent the food waste from being caught between the screw tip and the wall by contacting the rib 90 with the end of the screw 54 of the screw rotating body which is the discharge means 50. Let's do it.

Next, the driving control step of the blade means 30 in the food waste treatment apparatus 1 of the present invention is described in detail.

For example, when the power buttons of the first and second blades of the blade means 30 are turned on to be activated under the premise that the safety cap is locked, the blades are rotated forward, that is, the screw which discharges food waste 50 in FIG. 7. Referring to FIG. 6, the first blade 34 is rotated clockwise and the second blade 36 is rotated counterclockwise in the direction of moving toward the rotor.

At this time, as described above, the first and second blades 34 and 36 of the present invention are initially set to be arranged in a straight line, and temporarily store the input food waste so as not to move to the screw rotating body to drain. Do it first.

Next, the first drive motor 32, which drives the blades to rotate, is set to drive the blades to rotate for a predetermined time, for example 10 minutes.

At this time, the first and second blades continue to be driven for a predetermined time when the load of the first driving motor for rotating driving is smaller than a value previously set in the controller PLC. Stop it.

Then, the rotation of the motor is operated in reverse rotation for a predetermined time, for example, for 10 seconds, and at this time, the operation of the blade is stopped if the motor load is greater than or equal to the set value.

If the motor load is smaller than the set value during the reverse rotation, the motor is rotated backward for 10 seconds to eliminate food waste between the ends of the blade, and after 10 seconds, the first motor is again operated for 10 minutes in the forward rotation and the first , 2 carry out the first grinding of the input food waste through the blades and the movement to the screw rotor side.

Then, the apparatus is controlled to warn the system error when the number of motor restraints where the motor load is greater than or equal to the set value is greater than the set number.

Finally, the blade is stopped after a predetermined time, for example, 10 minutes.

On the other hand, in the food waste treatment apparatus 1 of the present invention, the operation of the screw rotating body which is the external discharge means 50 can also be automatically controlled as shown in FIG.

That is, if the motor load of the second drive motor 56 is greater than or equal to the set value when the screw rotating body is operated, it is recognized that normal operation of the motor is impossible due to food waste. 2 Stop the drive motor.

At this time, the load detection of the motor, the setting of the load, etc. are sufficiently implemented in a controller provided in the device, for example, a PLC.

As a result, the food waste treating apparatus 1 of the present invention is prevented from overloading the motor for operating the blade and the screw rotating body, which enables the actual crushing and dehydration of the food waste and the device discharge, and the excessive operation of the blade or the screw rotating body. However, if necessary, the system error is warned, which can extend the service life of the device.

Thus, according to the food waste treatment apparatus of the present invention, it is excellent in basic functionality such as dehydration and crushing of food waste, and also facilitates the discharge of the input food waste, and in particular, the operation structure is improved while simplifying the structure of the device, making it more compact. It is an advantage to provide a device.

In addition, when dehydration, pulverization and discharge of food waste put into the device, the driving load of the blade and screw rotating body is sensed to control the device starting, thereby preventing malfunction or damage of the device due to the motor overload, and overall life of the device. It is to provide an effect of prolonging.

First of all, when installed in the sink, the stability of the drainage is secured to prevent the inconvenience caused by the back flow does not occur at all to provide an excellent effect that there is no problem even when attached to the sink.

While the invention has been shown and described in connection with specific embodiments so far, it will be appreciated that the invention can be varied and modified without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as set forth in the claims below.
