Description

Food Waste Disposer with Non-contact Ozone Generator

The present invention relates to a food waste disposer having a non-contact ozone generator, and more particularly, to a non-contact ozone generator for efficiently and durablely reacting with the ozone to deodorize the exhaust gas generated by stirring, fermenting and decomposing food waste. It relates to a food waste processor.

In general, each home or restaurant, such as the leftover (food waste) is discharged every day, such residues are used as livestock feed or simply filtered through a strainer and then discarded. These residue treatment methods have been developed and used in recent years to increase the amount of food waste out of the total amount of waste, and to prevent the contamination of nearby drinking water or air by generating odor if the food waste is not disposed of smoothly. .

In the example food waste processor shown in Figure 1, the main body 10 of the food waste processor made of heat insulators are formed with an input door 12 for inputting the residue and a discharge door 21 for removing the residue after treatment. . The main body 10 is provided with a fermentation tank 11 for processing the residue and a deodorizer 30 for removing odor generated during the residue treatment process. The fermentation tank 11 is detachably installed in the main body so as to be detachable when removing the debris, or as shown to remove debris through the opening and closing door 22.

In addition, inside the fermentation tank 11, a stirrer 16 is rotatably mounted to decompose and process the residue by stirring and fermenting the fermenter and the residue introduced from the outside. The stirrer 16 is rotated forward and backward by receiving a driving force by the electric mechanism 13 by a chain, a timing belt, etc. which are provided in the fermentation tank 11, and the motor 14, such as an AC induction system.

Meanwhile, a suction fan 19 and an exhaust fan 19 ′ are installed at the upper portion of the food waste processor, and the suction fan 19 and the heater 15 installed therein are provided by a kind of fan heater function. If necessary, the outside air is heated and introduced, and the exhaust fan 19 ′ deodorizes the gas (including water vapor) generated therein through the deodorizer 30 installed in the exhaust duct 19 and discharges it to the outside.

The motor 14, the heater 15, the suction fan 19, the exhaust fan 19 ′ and the like are connected to the control panel 20 using a microcomputer, so that the operation of the food waste disposal system is controlled by a predetermined procedure or program. It may be configured to be controlled. The control panel 20 also controls the operation of the food waste processor in a sequential or manual operation according to the set operation mode, and receives the input of the temperature sensor 17 and the humidity sensor 18 installed inside the fermentation tank 11. The internal temperature and humidity conditions also control the operation of the food waste processor. One example of the control system is shown in FIG.

After the food waste is put in FIG. 2, the current temperature and humidity values from the temperature sensor 17 and the humidity sensor 18 are changed from the time when the input door 12 is closed by the input door sensor 12 ′. When input to the microcomputer 20a via the A / D converters 20b and 20c, the heater 15, the motor 14, the suction fan 19 and the exhaust fan are passed through the driving units 20d and 20e according to a predetermined program. By driving (19 '), the temperature and humidity are adjusted to 20 to 30 DEG C and 40 to 60%, and the stirrer 16 is intermittently forward and reverse rotated to maintain optimum fermentation or decomposition conditions of food waste.

However, the deodorizing device 30 of the food waste treatment device having the above-described structure, although it is forced stirring and fermentation, improves the efficiency of fermentation and shortens the processing time. However, the odor of the mixed gas of the gas and water vapor generated during stirring is usually reduced. It is difficult to remove only with the activated carbon deodorizing filter 34, and a method of increasing the deodorizing effect by using the ozone generating lamp 32 as shown in FIG. 1 has been applied. In this case, a high voltage from the high pressure generator 31 is applied to the ozone generating lamp 32 to generate ozone, and the ozone generated from the lamp 32 reacts with the exhaust gas flowing from the lower portion to increase the deodorizing effect, but for a long time In use, there is a problem that the exhaust gas containing water vapor directly contacts the ozone generating lamp 32, and foreign matter adheres to form a scale, thereby degrading the efficiency and deodorizing effect of the ozone generating lamp, and the waste ozone downstream. Although the waste ozone is prevented by adsorbing the waste ozone by passing through the adsorption filter 33, when ozone is generated in a large amount in consideration of the deterioration of the ozone generating lamp 32, the air leak of the waste ozone occurs and thus the environmental problem. Will cause.

In addition, in FIG. 1, the flow rate at which the exhaust gas and the waste ozone pass through the waste ozone adsorption filter 33 and the deodorization filter 34 of the deodorizing device 30 is disposed adjacent to the ozone generating lamp 32. Since the inlet of the exhaust gas is formed, it is not uniform over the cross section, and the upper part is high and the lower part is low, so that the effective deodorizing effect is not obtained, and the lifespan of the filters is shortened. This is particularly acute when the ozone wall is formed.

The present invention is to solve the above problems, and has a non-contact and non-contact ozone generator in the ozone generator to deodorize the waste gas generated by stirring, fermentation and decomposition of food waste with efficient and durable ozone. It is an object of the present invention to provide a food waste processor, and furthermore, the object of the present invention is to provide a food waste processor that can reduce noise caused by exhaust gas emissions and can prevent waste ozone from leaking out.
