The present invention relates to a food waste treatment apparatus, and more particularly, food waste, which is easy to install and maintain, by simply improving the steam discharge configuration including malodor, oil, and water generated during the crushing and stirring of the food waste. It relates to a processing apparatus.

In general, food waste generated in the kitchen of a home or restaurant is very difficult to properly dispose of by simply collecting.

In particular, a large amount of food waste, such as restaurants, foods include a variety of foreign objects, such as paper, vinyl, toothpicks, etc., and also contains very hard and oversized foreign substances such as bones.

On the other hand, the recent retirement of food waste is legally suspended to recycle all animal and plant feeds, but as described above, there is a component that cannot be used as such feed in the food waste, thus requiring accurate separate collection.

In addition, in order to recycle food waste, a facility for transporting and collecting separately collected food waste and processing it must be provided, and a consumer must be secured for use as feed with confidence in the processed and fed food.

In reality, however, in disposing of food waste, the discharge of food waste is carried out as a pay-as-you-go agent, resulting in a cost burden depending on the discharge.

In addition, if the food waste is not disposed of immediately, especially in summer, the decay rate is accelerated and various odors are generated, causing disgust.

It was developed for this purpose is a small food waste treatment apparatus, such a food waste treatment apparatus has already been proposed by the present applicant by the patent registration No. 497287 (food waste treatment apparatus).

The liver is rotated, and at the end, only one direction is rotated so that the food waste is discharged to the outside.

The heating member 50 is provided to dry the food waste, and is provided to the conveying member 30 side having a smaller diameter than the drum member 20. Therefore, the food waste guided to the conveying member 30 is dried in the process of crushing the food waste finely while reciprocating the drum member 20 and the conveying member 30.

The steam discharge member 60 is configured to discharge steam generated in the process of being pulverized and dried in the drum member 20 to the outside.

Since the steam generated from the drum member 20 usually contains oil, moisture, and odors, it may be a hotbed of odor if it is not immediately removed, so that it is immediately discharged through the vapor discharge member 60.

The steam discharge member 60 is composed of the pumping means 61, the first discharge pipe 62, the second discharge pipe 63 and the third discharge pipe 64 as shown in Figure 4, in particular, the case member 10 The lower end of the rear side is formed with a receiving groove 12 to allow a predetermined depth inward, the upper end of the drum member 20 and one end of the upper surface of the receiving groove 12 by the first discharge pipe (62).

Through the 62 and the receiving groove 12 and the second discharge pipe 62 is led to the pumping means 61, the steam passing through the pumping means 61 is discharged to the outside through the third discharge pipe (64). To make it possible.

In such a steam discharge member 60, the third discharge pipe 64 for discharging steam to the outside substantially together with the pumping means 61 is positioned on the upper portion of the case member 10 can be more smoothly discharged steam There is a characteristic to make.

Purification member 70 is a housing that can be accommodated in the receiving groove 12 formed on the back of the case member 10.

Purification member 70 is a shape that can be fitted to the receiving groove 12, the upper portion is to open as shown in Figure 5, the bottom surface formed to protrude downward from the upper surface of the receiving groove 12 The partition wall 71 is formed such that the partition wall 71 is formed to protrude upward at a constant height between the partition walls 13 so as not to intersect with the cross section 13.

The partition grooves 13 and 71 of the receiving groove 12 and the purification member 70 are formed in a shape spaced apart from the corresponding surface in the protruding direction by a predetermined height to the pumping means 61 through the spaced portions. The forced pumping steam is allowed to move meanderingly.

In addition, the space partitioned by the partition wall 71 of the purification member 70 is filled with a deodorizing means (not shown) such as a tourmaline or a ceramic ball to further separate the action by adsorption of oil and water from the moving steam. It is also desirable to have a deodorizing function that activates, in particular, removing odors from the steam.

It is more preferable that the partition wall 71 of the purification member 70 is formed to be spaced apart from the bottom by a predetermined height as shown, so that the oil and water on the bottom surface are more widely distributed.

In particular, the purifying member 70 is provided to be detachable from the insertion groove 13 and at the same time coupled to the insertion groove 13, the magnets or hooks in the case member 10 and the purifying member 70 to prevent the separation It is more preferable to provide a fixing means 80 such as a jaw.

In the lower portion of the drum member 20 and the conveying member 30 toward the front of the receiving groove 12 of the case member 10 together with the purifying member 70, a recovery box 90 for receiving the sewage finely coming out of them is provided. It is more preferable that the collection box 90 at this time is also provided to be withdrawn to the outside so that the cleaning can be provided.

Meanwhile, reference numeral 14 in the drawing is a collection bin for collecting the crushed and compressed dry food waste discharged through the upper end of the transfer member 30.

Referring to the operation of the present invention according to the above configuration is as follows.

The motor 41 and the pumping means 61 in the present invention are driven by a separate operation of the user.

When a certain amount of food waste is filled into the drum member 20 and the switch is operated to be in the operation mode, the motor 41 repeats the forward and reverse rotations for a predetermined time.

At this time, the stirring means 21 provided inside the drum member 20 serves to stir the food waste filled in the drum member 20 evenly, and by the screw 31 of the transfer member 30 The food waste is repeatedly dried between the drum member 20 and the transfer member 30 while simultaneously crushing the food waste finely.

When the motor 41 of the present invention is rotated forward and backward, the food waste is pulverized and dried, and then the motor 41 is driven in one direction, and the food waste is collected through the screw 31 while collecting the food waste toward the screw 31. Compressed and dried food waste is discharged through the open upper end of the 30.

The food waste discharged from the transfer member 30 is collected in the collection box 14 provided at the lower portion thereof. At this time, the collection box 14 may also be provided as a storage structure so that when the food waste processing is completed, the compressed and dried waste from the collection box 14 may be used as a compost through a separate post-treatment process, that is, a decay process to decay. .

Meanwhile, when the food wastes are dried while being broken by the driving of the motor 41 for a predetermined time, the food wastes generate fine amounts of oil, steam containing moisture and odors.

At this time, the steam is pumped by the pumping means 61 of the steam discharge member 60 together with the motor drive at the same time the steam generated during operation immediately as shown in Figure 6 the first discharge pipe 62 and the insertion groove 13 And discharged to the outside through the second discharge pipe 63 and the third discharge pipe (64).

In other words, through the first discharge pipe 62 coupled to the upper end of the drum member 20 is forced to flow the steam at the same time as the driving of the pumping means 61, the steam passing through the first discharge pipe 62 is the receiving groove To (12).

At this time, since the purging member 70 is already coupled to the receiving groove 12, the steam flowing into one side of the receiving groove 12 may be formed through the partitions 13 and 71 of the receiving groove 12 and the purification member 70. While moving in a meandering manner, oil and moisture are adsorbed to each of the partitions 13 and 71.

The pure gas component vapor, in which oil and water are properly separated, is forcibly transferred to the pumping means 61 through the second discharge pipe 63, and the pumping means 61 receives the pure gas component through the third discharge pipe 64. Allow the steam to drain to the outside or sewer pipes.

In particular, the steam passing through the purifying member 70 falls to the bottom surface of the purifying member 70 by its own weight when the oil and moisture adsorbed to each of the partitions 13 and 71 become a certain weight. Easily dried and gradually stacked on the bottom surface of the purification member 70.

Even if oil and water are removed from the steam passing through the purifying member 70, the odor remains in the vapor in the gaseous state, so that it is discharged to the outside through the second discharge pipe 63 and the third discharge pipe 64, and these residues remain. Steam may be discharged through general ventilation ducts, but may also be connected to drains.

On the other hand, the oil and water gathered at the bottom of the purification member 70 and the sewage collected at the recovery box 90 are very small, so that the state of drying in a short time at the bottom of the purification member 70 and the recovery box 90 Therefore, it is very convenient to manage because it does not require frequent washing.

In this way, if the outlet of the steam is formed in the upper portion of the case member 10, it is easy to connect even in a place where the sewer is projected upward from the bottom to a predetermined height, and the reverse flow of the sewage can be prevented so that the safe use can be maintained. do.

When the deodorizing means such as tourmaline or ceramic ball is filled in the interior of the purifying member 70, the separation of oil and water is not only better, but also the odor can be removed, thereby preventing the occurrence of odor during food waste processing. It can be used in peace while maintaining a cleaner state.

As described above, the present invention simplifies the steam discharge structure while removing oil and water from the steam generated during food waste processing, while slicing, compressing, cutting, drying and deodorizing sequentially in a drying furnace that agitates food waste. There is an advantage of providing convenience of manufacture and installation.

In addition, the present invention by filling the deodorizing means to the purifying member 70 by the simple periodic replacement of the deodorizing means to facilitate the removal of odors, oil and water from the steam generated during food waste disposal, it is very easy to manage It can be easily installed by anyone, not just by minute, providing a very economical effect to minimize installation costs.
