Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a food waste disposal container and a food waste disposal system using the same,

The present invention relates to a food waste container and a food waste treatment system using the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a food waste container having a crushing part and a washing part in a food garbage collection container and grinding the food waste collected before sending the food garbage to a food garbage disposal plant. And a food garbage disposal system using the same. 2. Description of the Related Art [0002] The present invention relates to a food garbage disposal apparatus and a food garbage disposal apparatus.

Generally, it is not enough to effectively treat a large amount of food waste generated in homes, restaurants, etc., and it may be treated by landfill or marine dumping. This is classified as one of the causes of serious environmental pollution, and a method of recycling or recycling food waste as a means of solving such problems is suggested.

One example is the composting, feed conversion of livestock, and energy conversion of methane gas generated by fermentation.

However, in the case of recycling by composting, since the concentration of salt (Nacl) is high, it is not only an obstacle factor for plant growth but also has a problem that salinity causes secondary soil contamination. In the case of food waste containing salt, It is impossible to compost without removing it.

In the case of livestock feed, if the salt contained in the food is not removed, the livestock poisoning phenomenon of the livestock may be caused. Therefore, even in the case of methane gas energization due to fermentation, The generation efficiency of the methane gas is lowered and the economical efficiency is lowered.

Therefore, if food waste is to be recycled and recycled, the amount of salt contained in the food should be sufficiently removed. However, the process of lowering the salinity at the food waste disposal plant takes much time, which is a factor for lowering the efficiency of food waste disposal.

On the other hand, water content is important in the process of treating food waste. If the water content is too low, the reaction does not proceed smoothly. If the water content is too high, it is difficult to transport the food waste. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain food waste collected at the restaurant at an appropriate water content.

Considering such a series of circumstances, it is urgently required to develop a new food garbage disposal system that treats food waste collected at a restaurant, etc. in advance with a proper moisture content and salinity and provides the food waste to the factory.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a garbage dump bin 10 according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a garbage dump bin 10 according to the present invention.

Will be described with reference to Figs. 1 and 2. Fig.

The food garbage collection bin 10 according to the present invention is different from the conventional waste collection box in that the collected food waste is merely transferred as it is. Thus, a series of treatments in the food garbage disposal factory can be performed in the collection bin, Efficiency was also raised.

The food waste receptacle 10 according to the present invention includes a receptacle body 100, a crusher 200, a cleaner 300, and a controller 400.

The receptacle body 100 has an inlet 110 through which food waste is introduced into an upper portion of the receptacle 100 and an outlet 120 through which the washing water W is discharged.

The outlet 120 may be provided with a filter to prevent food waste from being discharged. Therefore, only the washing water W is discharged while a series of processing steps are performed in the receptacle body 100.

In addition, the discharge port 120 may be provided with a lid to prevent water from being discharged from the food waste having a proper water content.

The crushing unit 200 is disposed inside the container body 100 to crush the food waste introduced into the container body 100.

When garbage is crushed to a proper size, it is easy to remove salt, and moisture can be removed smoothly to suit the desired salinity and moisture content.

Since the pulverizing process is performed in the bin, there is no need to perform a separate pulverizing process in the food waste disposal plant, which can shorten the working time and reduce the maintenance cost due to the operation of the large-capacity pulverizing device.

It is preferable that the crushing unit 200 is not operated in a manner to operate at all times, but is operated for a predetermined time immediately after the food is introduced.

For this, only when the weight measured by the weight sensor 430 described later fluctuates by more than a predetermined value, it is operated for a predetermined time.

The crushing unit 200 according to the present invention includes a crushing motor 210, a drive shaft 220, and a crushing blade 230.

The crushing motor 210 provides power to the crushing blade 230.

The drive shaft 220 is installed in the vertical direction of the container body 100. One end of the driving shaft 220 is coupled to the crushing motor 210 and a plurality of crushing blades 230 are coupled along the longitudinal direction. As a result, the power of the crushing motor 210 is transmitted to the crushing blade 230 through the drive shaft 220.

The crushing blade 230 crushes the food waste put into the receptacle body 100 and is coupled to the drive shaft 220 in a vertical direction.

At least one support rod 130 is formed on the inner surface of the container body 100 in parallel with the crushing blade 230.

The support rod 130 is provided to improve the crushing efficiency of the crushing blade 230.

The support rods 130 formed in the horizontal direction on the inner surface of the container body 100 add frictional force to the food wastes together with the crush blades 230 so that the crushing operation is performed smoothly. A plurality of the support bars 130 may be formed in the vertical direction of the container body 100.

The garbage is introduced through the inlet 110 formed at the upper side of the container body 100 so that the garbage is large in the upper part of the container body 100 and the lower part of the container body 100 is pulverized There is a small sized food waste.

Therefore, the gap between the crushing blade 230 and the support bar 130 is formed so as to become narrower toward the lower portion of the container body 100.

Since the support rod 130 is inserted through the food waste filled in the receptacle body 100, the support rod 130 receives the weight of the food waste existing at a position higher than the support rod 130. Accordingly, the support rod 130 disposed at the lower portion of the receptacle body 100 receives more load than the support rods 130 disposed at the upper portion.

For this, the diameter of the support bar 130 is designed to be larger toward the lower portion of the container body 100, so that the load is appropriately supported.

The washing unit 300 supplies the washing water W to lower the salinity of the food waste.

The washing unit 300 supplies the water required for pulverization to the periphery of the pulverizing blade 230 and the washing water W through the pulverizing blade 230 so as to maintain a uniform water content throughout the food garbage.

The cleaning unit 300 includes a cleaning water supply pipe 310 and a spray nozzle 320.

The washing water supply pipe 310 is formed to communicate the inside of the driving shaft 220 and the inside of the crushing blade 230 to form a flow path of the washing water W.

The spray nozzle 320 is formed on the surface of the crushing blade 230 so as to communicate with the wash water supply pipe 310 and injects the wash water W into the food waste.

The control unit 400 controls the crushing unit 200 and the washing unit 300 so that the optimum salinity and water content of the foodstuff are collected.

The weight sensor 430 is attached to a lower portion of the receptacle body 100 to measure the weight of food waste put into the receptacle body 100 and transmits the measured weight value to the controller 400.

The salinity sensor 410 measures the salinity of the food waste put into the receptacle body 100 and transmits the measured salinity to the control unit 400.

The water content sensor 420 measures the water content of the food waste introduced into the receptacle body 100 and transmits the measured water content to the controller 400.

The control unit 400 controls the crushing unit 200 and the washing unit 300 to reach a predetermined reference value when the weight, salinity, and water content of the received food waste are larger or smaller than a predetermined reference value.

In the conventional food garbage disposal plant, food waste was uniformly collected in a plurality of restaurants without being subjected to pre-treatment for food garbage.

As a result, the salinity, moisture content, and weight of the collected food waste are different from each other, and thus there are many ineffective aspects in the treatment at the food waste disposal plant.

Thus, in the present invention, a food garbage disposal system composed of a food garbage can 10 and a food garbage disposal server 500 is constructed.

The food garbage disposal server 500 analyzes the data received from the food garbage can 10 and collects the garbage efficiently by transmitting the collection time to each of the plurality of food garbage cans 10.

The food garbage disposal server analyzes the weight, salinity, water content, the position information of each food garbage receptacle 10, and the processing capacity of the food garbage disposal plant received from the plurality of food garbage containers 10, And sends the collection time to the garbage canister 10.

As a result, it is possible to shorten the processing time of food garbage in the food garbage disposal plant and increase the treatment efficiency.

By reviewing the weight of the received food waste and the processing capacity of the food waste disposal plant, it is possible to smoothly treat the food waste.

In addition, the food garbage disposal system according to the present invention may receive the location information of the food garbage receptacle 10 and provide an optimum copper line for collection of the garbage can.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is clearly understood that the same is by way of illustration and example only and is not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
