Description

{Food Garbage Basket}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a food garbage collection box, and more particularly, to a garbage collection container for automatically spraying a malodor removing agent into a main body containing food when a lid is opened and closed.

Generally, food waste discharged from homes, restaurants, etc. is collected by a food waste collector and then collected by an environmental cleaner. The food garbage collection box includes a main body having a space opened to the upper side so that food can be collected therein, and a lid for opening and closing an upper portion of the main body.

Typically, garbage collected in a garbage collection box is not collected immediately, but is collected at a designated date or at a designated time, thereby causing concern about corruption. In particular, food waste contains a lot of water, so in the summer when the weather is hot, the lid is closed and corruption proceeds in a short time.

When food waste decays, bad odors are generated so that you have to feel uncomfortable or disgusted when you open the lid to discard the food. Especially, in the case of the environmental cleaner who collects the food waste in the occupation, the odor is more displeased or disgusting, and it has a bad influence on the health.

An example of a technique for solving such a problem is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2005-0014327 (hereinafter referred to as 'prior art') under the name of 'Apparatus and Method for Removing Odor of Food Waste Collection Box'.

According to the malodor removing apparatus according to the prior art, the malodor removing material stored in the external reservoir of the collection box is sprayed from the nozzle through the pipeline by driving the pump according to the signal of the automatic control device, Unit, or time unit. When a person approaches to discard the food waste, the detection sensor senses it, stops the spraying operation, resumes the operation after leaving the collection box.

In the case of the conventional malodor removing apparatus having such an operating method, since the malodor removing material is injected by electronic control and the injection structure is complicated, not only a large production cost is required but also power is required due to the characteristics of the electronic control, There is a lot of concern.
