Description

Food waste processor with deodorizer of differential replacement cartridge cell structure

The present invention relates to a food waste treatment device, and more particularly, in a deodorizing device for deodorizing odor from exhaust gas generated by stirring, fermenting and decomposing food waste, the life and performance of the deodorizing device is changed or replaced according to the degree of deterioration. The present invention relates to a food waste processor having an improved deodorizer of an efficient and durable differential replacement cartridge cell structure.

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 increase the amount of food waste in the total amount of waste, and if the food waste is not disposed of smoothly, it causes odors and pollutes nearby drinking water sources or air. .

In the example food waste processor shown in Figure 1, the main body 10 of the food waste processor made of a heat insulating material is formed with an input door 12 for inputting the residue and a discharge door 21 for removing the residue after treatment The inside of the main body 10 is provided with a fermentation tank 11 for processing 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 the residue is removed or configured to remove the residue through the opening / closing door 22 as shown.

Moreover, inside the fermentation tank 11, the stirrer 16 is rotatably mounted, and the residue is decomposed and processed by stirring and fermenting the fermentation agent and the residue added from the outside. The stirrer 16 is rotated in the constant region by receiving the driving force by the electric mechanism 13, such as a chain, a timing belt, or the like, which is installed outside the fermentation tank 11, and a 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 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. The activated carbon malodor adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 34 is removed, and when the end of life, the integrated malodor adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 34 can be exchanged through the carver 34 '. Although the actual odor adsorption honeycomb type deodorizer 34 deteriorates rapidly in the front, gradually deteriorates in the rear, and deteriorates differently over the cross-sectional area, there is a problem of deterioration in durability and performance. There is a problem that it can be an economic burden.

In addition, a method of increasing the deodorizing effect by using the ozone generating lamp 32 as shown in FIG. 1 may be 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 downstream In the deodorizer, the waste ozone adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 33 and the odor adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 34 are integrally formed, and in the front, the waste ozone adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 33 is passed through to adsorb the waste ozone. There is a problem that the lifespan between the odor adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 34 and the waste ozone adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 33 is different, and the deterioration state is not uniform over the cross section, so that durability and performance deteriorate in the same way. In particular, when the waste ozone adsorption honeycomb deodorizer 33 is deteriorated, a large amount of waste ozone may leak out, which is not only harmful to health but also requires the rapid replacement of the entire deodorizers 33 and 34. The problem is.

Accordingly, the present invention is to solve the above problems, in the deodorizing device for deodorizing the odor from the exhaust gas generated by stirring, fermentation and decomposition of the food waste, only a part of the deterioration or replacement of the front and rear It is an object of the present invention to provide a food waste treatment machine having an effective and durable deodorizing cartridge cell structure deodorizer which has an improved life and performance.
