Description

Food waste processing device

The present invention relates to a food waste processing apparatus, and more particularly, to easily and easily grind food waste generated at a business place or a general household such as various restaurants, and to remove and process water, thereby reducing the volume of food waste. And to reduce the weight and to improve the processing efficiency of the food waste treatment apparatus.

In general, a large amount of food waste is inevitably generated in a business place such as a home or a restaurant, and since such food waste is not only diverse but also contains most water, it has a considerable difficulty and cost. Was exhausted problems were caused.

In other words, food waste generated in each home or business place had to be thrown away in a garbage bag of a standard made of plastic paper, but problems such as an increase in the amount of garbage or an increase in weight are caused by the large amount of moisture contained therein. In addition, there was also an unsanitary problem due to the odor and pathogens caused by the decomposition of organic matter in food.

In addition, the post-treatment method of food waste discarded in each home or business place has been widely applied such as landfilling or incineration. However, when landfilling, a large amount of leachate is inevitably generated. The environment was, of course, a problem of contaminating groundwater, and when incineration, a lot of water caused a problem of requiring a lot of energy due to incineration.

On the other hand, in order to solve such a problem, there is also known a method of forcibly drying the moisture contained in the food waste by using a dryer to reduce the amount of food waste purely, but it is known in each home or workplace where food waste is generated. There was a problem such as impossible to use in the back.

Therefore, the present invention has been made in consideration of the above problems, and its purpose is to easily crush food waste generated in each home or business place, and at the same time, dehydrate water to minimize the weight loss and volume of food waste, thereby treating the food waste. According to the present invention to provide a small food waste treatment apparatus to improve the treatment efficiency.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a compact and yet easy to use as a configuration, but also to be crushed and dehydrated in one power.

This object is achieved by providing a small food waste processor, that is, the food waste processor of the present invention is finely crushed as a grinding roller when the food waste is put into, and then contained in the food waste that is crushed by the piston retraction operation. It is characterized in that to minimize the amount of food waste by draining the water after dehydration.

Therefore, the rotational power of the drive motor 21 is simultaneously transmitted through each of the gears 24 and 26 to rotate and drive the grinding blade member 22 as well as the pair of grinding rollers 20 and 20a. .

In addition, at each lower portion of the grinding chamber in which the grinding rollers 20 and 20a are mounted, removal pins 27 for effectively removing the residues that stick to the outer circumferential edges of the grinding rollers 20 and 20a are rotated. Each is provided.

In addition, the heel 28 is formed on the other rotation shaft of the one-side grinding roller 20a, and the wheel 28 thereof is provided with a link 29 for operating a piston to be described later.

The piston 30 is installed in the cylinder 31 formed directly below the grinding chamber in a transverse direction to compress the food waste that is crushed in the grinding chamber and fall naturally, so as to be engaged in the cylinder 31 and slide operation. While provided, the end is connected to the above-described link 29, the rotational movement of the wheel 28 is converted into a linear movement through the link 29 to move forward and backward.

In addition, the predetermined position of the cylinder 31 is provided with a dewatering plate 33 that can rotate the hinge shaft 32 to the support point, as shown in more detail in Figures 5 and 6 of the accompanying drawings, the dehydration plate ( 33 is a plurality of drain holes 34 are drilled at the same time the other side is connected to the tension spring 35, the dehydration plate 33 is protruded into the cylinder 31 by the tension force of the tension spring 35 usually Will be maintained.

In addition, the end of the cylinder 31 is connected to the discharge port 36 for discharging the compressed waste to the outside, and the opening and closing plate 38 which is elastically installed by the spring 37 at the end of its discharge port 36 ) Is provided.

That is, when the piston 30 moves forward to compress food waste in the cylinder 31, the piston 30 is not opened by the elastic force of the spring 37 until a predetermined pressure is applied. The moisture contained in the food waste is dehydrated by the compressive force of), and when the compressive force continuously applied exceeds a predetermined pressure, the opening and closing plate 38 is opened to discharge the food waste to the outside.

In addition, a plurality of drain holes 39 are formed in the lower portion of the cylinder 31 to discharge the water generated while the food waste is compressed downward, and directly below the water to drain the drained water to the outside. Hopper-type drainage guide 40 is provided.

Therefore, the operation of the present invention configured as described in detail as follows.

When the food waste generated in each home or business place is collected and put in a predetermined amount through the hopper 10 and turned on, the rotational power of the driving motor 21 is crushed through the gears 24 and 26. 22) and the crushing rollers 20 and 20a are rotated and driven at different rotation ratios, respectively, thereby finely crushing the food waste introduced into the hopper 10 and discharging it downward.

That is, in the hopper 10, the crushed blade member 22 primarily crushes the injected food waste, and the crushed blade member 22 will pulverize the food waste in a relatively large lump form. The first crushed food waste is finely ground while passing between the lower grinding rollers 20 and 20a.

The finely ground food waste is collected in the lower cylinder 31, and at the same time, the wheel 28 is simultaneously rotated by the rotational force of the grinding roller 20a, thereby advancing and retracting the piston 30 through the link 29. It works.

Accordingly, the crushed food waste collected in the cylinder 31 by the forward operation of the piston 30 is pushed to the discharge port 36 side to compress, thereby dehydrating the water contained in the food waste.

That is, the food crushed by the forward operation of the piston 30 is pushed to the discharge port 36 through the cylinder 31, at this time, the dewatering plate 33 protruding into the cylinder 31 by the tension spring 35 The water contained in it is compressed by being blocked by) and is drained downward through the drain holes 34, and the dehydration plate 33 is tension spring 35 by the action of the piston 30 which is continuously operated. While expanding the hinge shaft 32 is rotated to the support point to allow the discharge of food waste.

On the contrary, when the piston 30 moves backward, the dehydrating plate 33 is returned to its original position by the tension force of the tension spring 35, and the food waste dewatered by repeating this action is pushed toward the outlet 36. In this case, the front and rear of the discharge port 36 is provided with an opening and closing plate 38 by the spring 37, thereby dehydrating the water contained in the food waste secondary by the elastic force of the spring 37 thereof. Done.

In other words, the spring 37 provided in the opening and closing plate 38 maintains a constant elastic force and thus contracts when a predetermined or more force of the piston 30 is advanced, that is, a force more than a degree of dehydration of food waste is applied. While the opening and closing plate 38 is to be opened, on the contrary, when the piston 30 is reversed, the opening and closing plate 38 is closed by the elastic force.

Therefore, the food waste discharged to the outlet 36 is crushed finely and at the same time, the weight and volume are minimized by being dehydrated first and second, and the moisture generated during dehydration is discharged through the drain guide member 40. It is discharged to the drip drawer 50.

As described above, the food waste processing apparatus of the present invention can minimize the weight and volume of the food waste by simply crushing the food waste discharged by simply installing it at each home or restaurant, and completely dehydrating water. It will have the effect of being.

In addition, the crushed and dehydrated food wastes can be used as a compost by fermentation as a separate device, and the treatment efficiency will be greatly improved.
