The slide lock 13 is biased by, for example, a torsion coil panel 17 in a direction in which the locking claws 16 protrude from the inner surface of the opening 9.

When the lid 11 is fitted into the lid attaching / detaching portion 10 and rotated in a predetermined direction, the locking claw 16 is pushed and retracts against the torsion coil panel 17. And shown in Figure 4 When the locking hole l ib of the lid 11 is located at a position facing the locking claw 16, the slide lock 13 is pushed by the torsion coil panel 17 and slides, and the locking claw 16 is locked by the locking hole of the lid 11. l fit ib

When the locking claw 16 is fitted into the locking hole l ib of the lid 11, the slide lock 13 has a locking claw that restricts rotation of the lid 11 and locks the lid 11 in a closed state. Prepare for 16. For example, one surface of the locking claw 16 is constituted by a slope, and the other surface is constituted by a vertical surface along a normal direction of the input opening 9.

The link 14 is rotatably mounted on the shaft 14a as a fulcrum, and is rotatably connected to the other end of the one end force slide lock 13 with the shaft 14a interposed therebetween. Thereby, the rotation operation of the link 14 is converted to the slide movement operation of the slide lock 13. A cam contact surface 14b is formed at the other end of the link 14. The cam contact surface 14b has a predetermined width in the vertical direction.

[0058] The shaft support 15 has, for example, a cylindrical shape, into which a drive shaft described later is inserted, and rotatably supports the shaft.

As shown in FIG. 4, the lid 11 includes a magnet 18. In addition, the upper unit 5 includes an upper lid detection sensor 19 that detects the magnet 18 of the lid 11. The upper lid detection sensor 19 is a sensor that detects magnetism and changes its output. The lid 11 is fitted into the opening 9 and rotated in a predetermined direction, and the locking hole 1 lb of the lid 11 engages the slide lock 13. Assuming that the position is such that the magnet 18 can be detected, the position where the magnet 18 can be detected is provided.

The lower unit 6 includes a charging cylinder 21 connected to the charging opening 9 of the upper unit 5, a bottom lid 22 that opens and closes with respect to the charging cylinder 21, and opening and closing of the bottom lid 22 and the lid 11. A mechanism 23 is provided.

The charging cylinder 21 has upper and lower ends open, and a connection 24 with the charging opening 9 of the upper unit 5 at the upper end. The connecting portion 24 has a configuration in which the charging cylinder portion 21 and the charging opening portion are inserted and fitted, and an O-ring or the like (not shown) is fitted for waterproofing. Here, in the connection part 24, the insertion part length of the part where the charging cylinder part 21 and the charging opening part 9 are fitted has a sufficient length. Also, it is recommended to display a scale so that the minimum required margin can be visually recognized.

Further, a drain port 25 is provided on the inner peripheral surface on the lower end side of the charging cylinder 21. Drain outlet 25 entrance , A filter 26 is attached. The filter 26 has, for example, a semicylindrical shape that covers the entrance of the drain 25, has a function of capturing garbage and passing moisture, and is detachable so that it can be replaced.

[0063] The bottom lid 22 is attached to the lower end of the charging cylinder 21 so as to be openable and closable. The bottom lid 22 has a disc-shaped lid 27 that fits into the opening at the lower end of the charging cylinder 21, a shaft 28 formed by also projecting a part of the outer periphery of the lid 27, and a shaft at the lid 27. A pressing portion 29 is formed at a position facing 28.

The shaft portion 28 of the bottom cover 22 is formed outside the outer periphery of the cover portion 27, and the bottom cover 22 is rotated by the shaft portion 28 as a fulcrum. Open and close the opening.

FIG. 5 (a) and FIG. 5 (b) show a configuration of a main part of the bottom cover 22. The lid portion 27 of the bottom lid 22 has a disc-shaped first lid portion 27a and a second lid portion 27b having a larger diameter than the first lid portion 27a, and a step is formed on the outer periphery. It has a convex shape. Further, a groove 27c is formed in the outer peripheral portion so as to extend in the circumferential direction, and the sealing material 30 is fitted in the groove 27c.

[0066] The sealing material 30 has a tapered surface 30a on the outer periphery, and the outer peripheral force of the first lid 27a and the outer peripheral force of the second lid 27b also project by a predetermined amount.

[0067] A tapered surface 31 is formed at an opening at the lower end of the charging cylinder 21 that the bottom cover 22 opens and closes, at a position where the cover 27 fits. The tapered surface 31 of the charging cylinder 21 has the same inclination as the tapered surface 30 a of the sealing material 30.

[0068] The bottom cover 22 opens and closes by rotating about the shaft 28. For this reason, the first lid 27a has a diameter capable of securing a clearance with which the bottom lid 22 can be opened and closed with respect to the inner diameter of the inlet cylinder 21. Then, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), when the bottom lid 22 is closed, the first lid 27a of the sealing material 30 can be in close contact with the tapered surface 31a of the charging cylinder 21. And the amount of protrusion from the second lid 27b is set.

As shown in FIG. 5 (a), when the bottom lid 22 is closed, the portion where the sealing material 30 is exposed is the clearance between the first lid 27a and the charging cylinder 21 and the second lid 27a. This is the clearance between the lid 27b of the second and the charging cylinder 21.

[0070] For this reason, a part that directly contacts moisture or the like is prevented from being slightly deteriorated. In addition, even if solid objects such as spoons and forks enter by mistake, If it is not a small thing, it will not directly damage the sealing material 30.

[0071] Further, since the contact area between the sealing material 30 and the charging cylinder portion 21 can be widened, the adhesion is improved.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), when opening and closing with the shaft 28 as a fulcrum, the sealing material 30 and the tapered surface 31 of the charging cylinder 21 are opened and closed by abutting surfaces. Thus, the bottom cover 22 can be opened and closed with a light force.

[0073] The exposed portion of the sealing material 30 when the bottom cover 22 is closed may be coated with moisture or the like. Also, a ring or the like made of a different material from the seal material 30 may be fitted to the exposed portion of the seal material 30 when the bottom cover 22 is closed.

Further, O-rings having different diameters may be overlapped and fitted to form a tapered surface.

Returning to FIG. 2, the bottom lid 22 has an inclined surface 27d formed on the upper surface of the lid 27. The inclined surface 27d is inclined in a direction to descend toward the drain outlet 25. Here, when the bottom lid 22 is closed, the height of the lowermost end of the inclined surface 27d is substantially equal to or slightly higher than the lower end of the drainage port 25.

The bottom lid 22 is provided with a push-up convex portion 32 on the lower surface in order to perform an operation of being pushed and closed by the rotary wing by a rotary motion of the rotary wing described later.

[0077] When the loading cylinder 21 is closed by the bottom lid 22, the push-up protrusion 32 has a shape along the trajectory of the tip of the rotor and has a curved surface slightly larger than the trajectory of the rotor.

The opening / closing mechanism 23 includes a first lock cam 33 that contacts the link 14 of the upper unit 5, a second lock cam 34 that assists locking and opening when the bottom cover 22 is closed, and a first lock cam 33. A drive shaft that connects the first and second lock cams to each other; and a drive section that drives the drive shaft.

[0079] The first lock cam 33 has a cam surface eccentric to the drive shaft 35. The first lock cam 33 contacts the cam contact surface 14b of the link 14, and the drive shaft 35 is driven to release the lock of the lid 11.

As shown in FIGS. 6 (a) to 6 (d), the second lock cam 34 includes a pressing surface 34a and a pressing surface 34b with the drive shaft 35 interposed therebetween. The pressing surface 34a of the second lock cam 34 is composed of an upward slope and a plane that also has a continuous slope force. When the second lock cam 34 rotates in one predetermined direction, the pressing portion of the bottom lid 22 is pressed. Two

9 comes into contact with the lower side, and the bottom cover 22 is pushed up.

The pressing surface 34b of the second lock cam 34 is formed by a downward slope, and when the second lock cam 34 rotates in the other direction, the pressing surface 34b is brought into contact with the pressing portion 29 of the bottom lid 22. Contact from above and push down bottom cover 22.

Here, by setting the point of action of the force by the second lock cam 34 on the bottom cover 22 on the side opposite to the shaft portion 28, when the bottom cover 22 is locked in a closed state, the lock can be reliably performed. .

[0084] The drive shaft 35 is supported by the lower unit 6 by the bracket 37. The first lock cam 33 is attached to the upper end side, and the second lock cam 34 is attached to the lower end side.

[0085] The bracket 37 is provided with a stepping motor 36a and a gear 36b that form the driving unit 36, and the driving shaft 35 receives a driving force from the stepping motor 36a via a gear 36b and the like.

[0086] Further, a magnet 38 is attached to the drive shaft 35 in order to detect the orientation of the first lock cam 33 and the second lock cam 34. Further, a cam position detection sensor 39 for detecting a magnet 38 is attached to the bracket 37.

Now, the upper end of the drive shaft 35 is supported by the shaft support 15 of the upper unit 5, and the slide lock 13 is moved via the link 14 by the rotation of the first lock cam 33.

[0088] Since the first lock cam 33 and the second lock cam 34 are attached to the drive shaft 35,

The first lock cam 33 and the second lock cam 34 rotate in response to the driving force of the drive unit 36. Thus, a series of operations of locking and unlocking the bottom lid 22 and unlocking the lid 11 are performed by one drive source.

The garbage crushing and drying apparatus 4 shown in FIG. 1 includes a processing container 42 inside a cover 41. The lower unit 6 described above is attached to the upper part of the processing container 42. In addition, the processing vessel 42 has a stirring / drying space 43 formed therein and a rotating blade (stirring means) 44 attached thereto.

After being inserted, the rotary wing 44 is rotatable with respect to the processing container 42.

[0093] The wing portion 46 extends in a direction intersecting with the axial direction of the shaft portion 45, and has a comb-like tip with a plurality of grooves 47 formed therein.

[0094] In the wing portion 46, a plurality of slits (spouts) 48 are formed on one slope 46a. The slit 48 is arranged along the slope 46a in parallel with the axial direction of the rotor 44.

[0095] Each slit 48 extends along the wing portion 46 and communicates with the inside and outside of the rotary wing 44. The wing portion 46 between the slits 48 is overhanged on the slope 46a as shown in FIG. As a result, an intrusion prevention portion 46b for garbage and dry refuse powder is formed. Thus, the configuration is such that dust is unlikely to directly enter the inside of the wing portion 46 through the slit 48 from the vertical direction with respect to the wing portion 46. In order to form the intrusion prevention part 46b, the slope 46a is made thicker, and the center 46c of the wing 46 is offset from the center 45c of the shaft 45 so that the slope 46a is steep. is there.

[0096] Further, a plurality of through-holes 49 are formed in the wing portion 46 in order to drop debris accumulated on the wing portion 46 from one slope 46a to the other surface side.

[0097] Further, wipers 50 are attached to the tips of the wing portions 46, respectively. The wiper 50 is composed of an elastic piece made of a flexible member. Here, the wing portion 46 of the rotary wing 44 is formed such that a tip thereof has a predetermined gap with respect to the circumferential surface of the stirring / drying space 43 of the processing container 42. As shown in FIG. 10, the wiper 50 also comes into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the processing container 42 with the tip force of the wing portion 46 also protruding.

[0098] The rotary blade 44 is configured by combining the first member and the second member, and the wiper 50 Is sandwiched between the divided surfaces of the wing portion 46, and is positioned and fixed by screws and bosses (not shown).

[0099] <Configuration of Processing Container>

As shown in FIG. 1, the processing container 42 includes an origin position detection sensor 51a that detects the position of the rotary blade 44, and a bottom cover push-up position detection sensor 51b. FIG. 1 shows a state where the rotor 44 is at the origin position. In this example, the origin position of the rotary wing 44 is such that the wing portion 46 is vertically downward. As will be described later, when the rotor 44 is rotated to a position detected by the bottom cover push-up position detection sensor 51b with the bottom cover 22 of the lower unit 6 opened, the bottom cover 22 is pushed up by the rotor 44 to The operation of closing the lid 22 is performed.

[0100] The processing container 42 includes a PTC heater 52 (heating means). The PTC heater 52 is a heater having a thermistor characteristic of a positive polarity. When the temperature rises, the resistance value rises, thereby controlling the current consumption and gently increasing the temperature. The temperature of the heating part reaches the saturation region and stabilizes, and self-temperature control is performed.

[0101] As described above, in the PTC heater 52, the current consumption decreases when the temperature of the heater rises, and then when the temperature reaches a saturation region of a certain temperature, the current consumption is stabilized at a low value. The use of this method has the advantages of saving power consumption and preventing an abnormal rise in the temperature of the heating element.

[0102] The PTC heater 52 is attached to the outer periphery near the bottom of the processing container 42, covered with a heat insulating material, and the inside of the processing container 42 is heated.

FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 are perspective views showing a configuration example of the processing container 42. The processing container 42 is provided with a discharge port 53 at a position facing the front. The outlet 53 is, for example, a rectangular opening. The processing container 42 has guide ribs 54 on both left and right sides of the discharge port 53. The guide rib 54 has a guide groove 55.

FIGS. 13 (a) and 13 (b) are explanatory diagrams showing examples of the configuration of the guide rib. The guide groove 55 includes a closing guide portion 55a, an elevating guide portion 55b, and an opening guide portion 55c. A detachable guide 55d is formed in the elevating guide 55b.

The detachable guide portion 55d has a concave shape communicating from the elevating guide portion 55b to the end of the guide rib 54. Further, a lock lever 56 is provided on the detachable guide portion 55d. Lock lever 56 is slidably attached to the guide rib 54 to open and close the detachable guide 55d.

Returning to FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the guide rib 54 is formed with a concave locking hole 57 facing outward. A cover unit 58 is attached to the outlet 53. The cover unit 58 has guide bosses 59 shown in FIGS. 13 (a) and 13 (b) on both left and right sides. In the cover cut 58, each guide boss 59 is fitted into each guide groove 55 of the left and right guide ribs 54, and is attached to the processing container 42. Here, as the configuration in which the lower end of the cover unit 58 abuts on the processing container, the rotation of the cover unit 58 with the guide boss 59 as a fulcrum is restricted, and the cover unit 58 slides along the guide groove 55.

[0107] The cover unit 58 includes an operation lever 60. FIGS. 14 (a) and 14 (b) are main part explanatory diagrams showing a configuration example of the operation lever. The operation lever 60 includes a plate 60a, and is slidably attached to the lower left and right sides of the cover unit 58 shown in FIGS. By operating the operation lever 60, the plate 60a slides and the side force of the cover hood 58 also projects or retracts.

[0108] The operation lever 60 includes a magnet 60b. Further, the processing container 42 includes an outlet opening / closing detection sensor 61. The discharge port opening / closing detection sensor 61 is a magnet sensor, and detects the magnet 60b when the operation lever 60 is operated and the plate 60a is at a position to enter the locking hole 57 of the guide rib 54. Thus, it is possible to detect that the plate 60a of the operation lever 60 enters the locking hole 57 of the guide rib 54, and that the cover unit 58 closes the discharge port 53 and is locked.

Returning to FIG. 1, the cover unit 58 includes a plurality of sets of cutters (crushing means) 62 on the back side. In each cutter 62, the back surface of the cover unit 58 at the position where the discharge port 53 is closed also projects into the processing container 42, and the position in the circumferential direction and the position in the axial direction are shifted from each other.

[0110] Each cutter 62 is formed in a fan shape, and a blade portion 62a is formed on one side edge thereof. A shaft (not shown) is provided at one end of the blade 62a, and the blade 62a is urged by a spring member (not shown) in a protruding direction. Accordingly, when an excessive force is applied to the cutter 62, the cutter 62 rotates about the shaft portion and the inner surface force of the processing container 42 can be retracted into the cover unit 58. [0111] <Configuration of Garbage Bag Mounting Mechanism>

As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the processing container 42 has a bag mounting arm 63 at the discharge port 53. One bag mounting arm 63 is mounted on each side of the guide rib 54, and the lower end is rotatably supported by the processing container 42 by a shaft portion 63a, and the left and right bag mounting arms 63 open and close in conjunction with each other.

[0112] The bag mounting arm 63 includes two spatulaes curved along the outer shape of the portion where the discharge port 53 of the processing container 42 is formed. The length of the spatula is slightly longer than the length of the outlet 53 in the height direction.

The processing container 42 includes a discharge plate 64 below the discharge port 53. The discharge plate 64 is attached between the guide ribs 54, and the force near the lower end of the discharge port 53 also extends obliquely forward and downward to cover a part of the lower side of the discharge port 53.

[0114] <Drive mechanism of rotating wing>

FIG. 15 is an explanatory diagram showing a configuration of a driving mechanism and a blowing mechanism of the rotary wing. A rotating gear 44 (not shown in FIG. 15) has a spur gear 65 attached to one shaft 45 projecting from the processing container 42. A counter gear 66 meshing with a spur gear 65 is attached to the processing container 42, and a small gear 68 attached to a motor 67 meshes with the counter gear 66.

When the motor 67 is rotated, a driving force is transmitted to the rotary blade 44 via the small gear 68, the counter gear 66, and the spur gear 65, and the rotary blade 44 rotates about the shaft 45 as a central axis.

[0116] <Blow mechanism to the rotor>

A fan (drying means) 69 is attached to the cover 41. The fan 69 is a so-called sirocco fan, and the exhaust port 69a is connected to one end of the shaft 45 of the rotor 44 (not shown in FIG. 15) through a duct 70. Here, the connection between the duct 70 and the shaft 45 has a configuration in which the shaft 45 is rotatable with respect to the duct 70 while maintaining airtightness.

[0117] <Air intake mechanism>

FIG. 16A and FIG. 16B are perspective views showing a suction mechanism of the cover. The cover 41 has an intake port 71 as shown in FIG. The cover 41 has airtightness, and takes in outside air from the intake port 71. The intake port 71 is provided with a check valve 72 as shown in FIG. The check valve 72, for example, operates the fan 69 shown in FIG. When the force becomes a negative pressure, the air is opened and the outside air can be taken in from the intake port 71. Further, when the driving of the fan 69 is stopped and the pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the cover 41 becomes zero or positive pressure, the cover 41 is closed by a spring or its own weight.

[0118] Thereby, the check valve 72 is opened at the intake port 71 by the intake air by driving the fan 69, and the outside air is sucked. As a result, the fan 69 blows air into the rotor 44.

When the drive of the fan 69 is stopped, the check valve 72 closes to prevent the air inside the cover 41 from leaking from the air inlet 71 to the outside of the cover.

[0120] <Exhaust mechanism>

FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram showing the configuration of the exhaust mechanism of the processing container. As shown in FIG. 11, an exhaust port 74 is formed in the upper part of the processing container 42, and a filter unit 75 shown in FIG. In addition, a check valve unit 76 is attached to the upper portion of the processing container 42 along with the filter unit 75.

FIG. 18A and FIG. 18B are explanatory diagrams showing the configuration of the filter unit. The filter unit 75 includes a canopy 77, a filter 78, and a brush 79. The cover 77 includes a first joint 80 attached to the exhaust port 74 of the processing container 42, a claw 81 formed on the first joint 80, and a screw formed on a portion facing the claw 81. Part 82 is provided. In addition, a second joint portion 84 attached to the intake port 83 of the check valve unit 76 is provided.

Here, the second joint 84 is inclined from the vertical plane with respect to the first joint 80 so that the upper end protrudes from the lower end.

The filter 78 is provided between the first joint 80 and the second joint 84. The brush 79 is attached to the cover 77 so as to be movable along the surface of the filter 78. An operating rod 79a is attached to the brush 79, and by operating the operating rod 79a from outside the cover 77, the brush 79 can be moved along the surface of the filter 78 to clean the filter 78. Here, in order to make the degree of contamination of the filter 78 visible from the outside of the cover 77, for example, the cover 77 may be formed of a transparent resin.

[0124] In the filter unit 75, the claw portion 81 of the cover 77 is fitted into the locking hole 85 of the processing container 42 shown in Fig. 11, and the screw portion 82 is fixed to the processing container 42 with a screw (not shown). The part 80 is in close contact with the exhaust port 74. Also, the second joint 84 is formed by a downward slope. As a result, the first joint portion 80 comes into close contact with the intake port 83 of the check valve unit 76 by a force pressing the first joint section 80 against the exhaust port 74.

As a result, the filter unit 75 can be attached to the processing container 42 and the check valve unit 76 in a state where the intake side and the exhaust side are in close contact with each other. prevent.

[0126] In addition, since the airtightness can be maintained by tightening the screws, replacement is easy, and the filter 78, which can no longer perform its intended function even with cleaning with the brush 79, can be easily mounted together with the filter unit 75. The performance can be maintained as a whole.

[0127] The check valve unit 76 includes an electromagnetic valve (not shown) and the like, and has a configuration capable of opening and closing the exhaust flow path. The exhaust port 74 of the processing container 42 is connected to a drain pipe downstream of a drain trap 87 by a duct 86 via a filter unit 75 and a check valve unit 76 as shown in FIGS. If the drainage flows backward due to clogging of the drainpipe, the sensor detects the inflow of water and closes the check valve to prevent the wastewater from flowing back into the filter unit 75 and further into the processing vessel 42. .

As shown in FIG. 11, by providing a drain cock 42e for draining water at the lower part of the processing container 42, when water having a processing capacity or more enters the processing container 42, it is discharged to the outside. I can do it. Further, by making a part of the processing container 42 transparent, for example, the accumulation of water can be visually confirmed.

The processing container 42 is configured by combining a first case 42c and a second case 42d as shown in FIG. The first case 42c and the second case 42d are detachably integrated with each other by, for example, screwing, and the division surface of the first case 42c and the second case 42d is formed by the bearings 42a and 42b of the rotor 44. I do.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 19, when the first case 42c is removed, the rotor 44 can be removed and replaced. Here, the lower unit 6 is provided in the second case 42d on the rear side of the apparatus, and remains on the apparatus main body side even when the first case 42a is removed. That is, as shown in Fig. 1, the lower unit 6 is the upper unit attached to the sink 2. Since it is connected to 5, when the processing container 42 is disassembled, it remains on the apparatus main body side, thereby facilitating disassembly of the processing container 42.

FIG. 20 is a control block diagram of the garbage processing apparatus. The control device 91 includes a system controller (control means) 92. The system controller 92 is connected to the above-described upper lid detection sensor 19, cam position detection sensor 39, origin position detection sensor 51a, bottom lid push-up position detection sensor 51b, discharge opening / closing detection sensor 61, and the like.

[0132] The system controller 92 detects from the output of the upper lid detection sensor 19 whether or not the lid 11 has closed the closing opening 9 and is in a locked state. Further, from the output of the cam position detection sensor 39, the positions of a first lock cam 33 for unlocking the lid 11 and a second lock cam 34 for locking and unlocking the bottom lid 22 are detected. Further, the position of the rotary wing 44 is detected from the output of the origin position detection sensor 51a and the bottom cover push-up position detection sensor 51b, and the opening / closing of the cover unit 58 is detected from the output of the discharge opening / closing detection sensor 61.

The system controller 92 is connected to a stepping motor 36a, a motor 67, a PTC heater 52, and a fan motor for driving the fan 69. The system controller rotates and stops the rotation of the fan motor for driving the stepping motor 36a, the motor 67, and the fan 69 according to a predetermined program from the output of each sensor. Also, the PTC heater 52 is turned on and off. Further, a stepping motor or the like for driving the check valve of the check valve unit 76 may be connected to the system controller 92.

First, when the lid 11 is open, the bottom lid 22 closes the lower end of the charging cylinder 21 as shown in FIG. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the pressing portion 29 of the bottom cover 22 is pushed up by the push-up portion 34a of the second lock cam 34.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, the sealing material 30 attached to the bottom lid 22 is in a state where the tapered surface 30a is pressed against the tapered surface 31 of the charging cylinder 21.

When garbage is thrown in from the throw-in opening 9 communicating with the throw-in cylinder 21, the thrown garbage is accumulated on the bottom lid 22. As described above, since the sealing material 30 of the bottom lid 22 is pressed against the tapered surface 31 of the charging cylinder 21, leakage of moisture contained in garbage from the bottom lid 22 is suppressed. available.

[0137] Since the inclined surface 27d is formed on the upper surface of the bottom lid 22, moisture is drained from the outlet 25 to the upstream of the drain trap along the inclined surface 27d. Here, since the filter 26 is attached to the drain 25, the raw garbage is drained to the drain 25 without passing through the filter 26.

[0138] As shown in Fig. 5 (a), when the bottom cover 22 is closed, the portion where the sealing material 30 is exposed on the side of the charging opening 9 is the cover 27 of the bottom lid 22 and the charging cylinder. This is the clearance part of part 21. Therefore, even if a fork or the like is accidentally inserted, the sealing member 30 is not damaged.

FIG. 21 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing when putting garbage. In order to process the garbage thrown into the charging opening 9 by the garbage processing apparatus 1, first, the charging opening 9 is closed with the lid 11 (step Al).

[0140] When the lid 11 is fitted into the opening 9 and rotated in a predetermined direction, the locking claw 16 of the slide lock 13 is fitted into the locking hole l ib of the lid 11, and the rotation of the lid 11 is restricted. Is done. Further, the rib 11a of the lid 11 fits into the rib 10a of the input opening 9, and restricts the upward movement of the lid 11. As a result, the lid 11 is locked to the input opening 9 in a closed state.

When the locking claw 16 of the slide lock 13 is fitted to the locking hole l ib of the lid 11, the upper lid detection sensor 19 detects the magnet 18 of the lid 11. Thereby, the system controller 92 detects that the lid 11 has been fitted into the opening insertion portion 9 and locked in the closed state (step A2).

When the upper lid detection sensor 19 detects the lock of the lid 11, the system controller 92 detects the position of the rotary wing 44 from the output of the origin position detection sensor 51a. That is, when the rotor 44 is rotating, when the origin position detection sensor 51a detects the rotor 44, the rotation of the motor 67 is stopped, and the rotor 44 is stopped at the origin position (step A3). .

Further, the system controller 92 stops the rotation of the fan motor that drives the fan 69. In this example, when the rotation of the fan 69 is stopped, the check valve 72 closes due to the pressure between the inside and the outside of the cover 41. Further, the check valve of the check valve unit 76 is closed by the stepping motor, and the PTC heater 52 is stopped (step A4).

When the upper lid detection sensor 19 detects that the lid 11 is locked, the system controller 92 After a certain period of time, the driving of the stepping motor 36a is started. Here, the system controller 92 performs the above-described processes of step A3 and step A4 until a predetermined time elapses after the upper lid detection sensor 19 detects the lock of the lid 11.

FIGS. 22 (a) to 22 (d) are explanatory views showing the operation of the lock cam for locking and unlocking the bottom cover. The upper part shows the lid (upper lid), and the lower part shows the lock mechanism for the bottom lid. Show. FIG. 22A shows a state where the first lock cam 33 and the second lock cam 34 are at the origin positions. When the first lock cam 33 is at the home position, the locking claw 16 of the slide lock 13 projects from the insertion opening 9. When the second lock cam 34 is at the home position, the push-up portion 34a contacts the bottom cover 22 and pushes up.

[0146] The system controller 92 drives the stepping motor 36a to rotate the second lock cam 34 in the direction of arrow a when a certain period of time has elapsed after the upper lid detection sensor 19 detects the lock of the lid 11, and Open the lid 22 (step A5).

FIG. 22 (b) shows a state in which the second lock cam 34 has also been rotated by 90 degrees in the direction of the arrow a with respect to the origin position force. When the second lock cam 34 also rotates the origin position force 90 degrees in the direction of arrow a, the push-up portion 34a gradually separates from the bottom cover 22. In this state, the bottom cover 22 is still held.

[0148] Here, since the second lock cam 34 and the first lock cam 33 are connected by the drive shaft 35 as shown in FIG. 2, when the second lock cam 34 is rotated, the first lock cam 33 is also interlocked. Rotate. When the first lock cam 33 also rotates by 90 degrees in the direction of the arrow a in the home position, the force of the link 14 is also released. In this state, the slide lock 13 does not move.

FIG. 22 (c) shows a state in which the second lock cam 34 has also been rotated by 130 degrees in the direction of arrow a with respect to the origin position force. When the second lock cam 34 also rotates by 130 degrees in the direction of arrow a in the direction of the arrow a, the push-up portion 34a separates from the bottom cover 22. Thereby, the lock in the closed state of the bottom lid 22 by the second lock cam 34 is released.

[0150] Since the bottom cover 22 opens in the vertical direction, when the lock by the second lock cam 34 is released, the bottom cover 22 is opened with its own weight and the weight of the garbage around the shaft 28. FIG. 23 shows a state in which the bottom cover 22 is open. Thus, the garbage placed on the bottom cover 22 is put into the processing container 42.

[0151] At this time, since the rotor 44 is stopped at the origin position, the bottom lid 22 does not contact the rotor 44 during the opening operation of the bottom lid 22. [0152] Normally, the bottom cover 22 is automatically opened by its own weight or the like when the lock by the second lock cam 34 is released, but it is conceivable that the bottom cover 22 does not open with its own weight due to sticking of the sealing material 30 or the like. . Then, the bottom cover 22 is forcibly opened by the second lock cam 34.

FIG. 22D shows a state in which the second lock cam 34 is also rotated by 180 degrees in the direction of the arrow a with respect to the origin position force. When the second lock cam 34 also rotates the origin position force by 180 degrees in the direction of the arrow a, the pressing portion 34b also presses the pressing portion 29 of the bottom lid 22 with an upward force. As a result, a force for forcibly opening the bottom lid 22 is applied, and the sealing material 30 can be forcibly opened even if the bottom cover 22 cannot be opened by its own weight (step A6).

[0154] The system controller 92 stops driving the stepping motor 36a when the second lock cam 34 and the first lock cam 33 are also rotated by 180 degrees in the direction of the arrow a in the direction of the arrow a. Here, the rotation angle of the second lock cam 34 and the first lock cam 33 is controlled by the rotation phase of the stepping motor 36a by detecting the origin position by the cam position detection sensor 39.

[0155] While the first lock cam 33 rotates the origin position force by 180 degrees in the direction of arrow a, the first lock cam 33 is also separated by the link 14 force, and the slide lock 13 does not move. As a result, the lid 11 remains locked in the closed state. For this reason, the lid 11 cannot be opened with the bottom lid 22 opened, thereby preventing the backflow of the odor from the processing container 42 and the inflow of moisture into the processing container 42.

[0156] The time from the detection of the lock of the lid 11 by the upper lid detection sensor 19 to the start of the driving of the stepping motor 36a to the opening of the bottom lid 22 is set to about several seconds, for example, about 5 seconds. .

[0157] Since it is considered that the garbage introduced into the introduction opening 9 contains moisture, even after the lid 11 is closed, the garbage is kept on the bottom lid 22 to cut off the moisture. This is for charging into the processing container 42.

The system controller 92 rotates the second lock cam 34 and the first lock cam 33 by 180 degrees in the direction of the arrow a in the direction of arrow a to stop driving the stepping motor 36a. Rotate in the direction of arrow c as shown in (Step A 7). [0159] When the rotor 44 at the origin position is rotated in the direction of the arrow c with the bottom cover 22 opened, the bottom cover 22 exists in the rotation locus of the rotor 44, so that the blade 44 The part 46 comes into contact with the push-up projection 32 of the bottom lid 22. Further, as shown in FIG. 25, when the rotor 44 is rotated until it is detected by the bottom cover push-up detection sensor 51b, the rotor 44 pushes up the bottom cover 22, and the bottom cover 22 is supported by the shaft 28 as a fulcrum. Close by rotating operation.

The system controller 92 stops the rotation of the motor 67 when the bottom cover push-up detection sensor 51b detects the rotary blade 44. As a result, the bottom lid 22 closes the charging cylinder 21 while being supported by the rotor 44.

[0161] Here, if the bottom cover push-up detection sensor 51b does not detect the rotary wing 44 after a predetermined time has elapsed since the rotation of the motor 67 was started, the system controller 92 rotates the motor 67 in a fixed reverse direction. Then, the rotor 44 is returned to the origin position or a position slightly beyond the origin position, and the retry is performed. If the bottom cover push-up detection sensor 51b does not detect the rotor 44 even after a plurality of retries, an alarm is generated and an error is generated.

[0162] At the time of this error, since the bottom cover 22 is considered to be in an open state, the system controller 92 keeps the cover 11 locked in the closed state, and also checks the check valve unit 76 in reverse. Keep the stop valve closed to prevent odor diffusion and moisture intrusion into the processing vessel 42

[0163] As shown in Fig. 1, a drain port 8 is formed in the sink 2 in parallel with the charging opening 9, and the drain port 8 is not closed by the lid 11, so that the lid 11 is closed. Even if is closed, the opportunity as a normal sink comes to play!

When the bottom cover push-up detection sensor 51b detects the rotary wing 44 and stops the rotation of the motor 67, the system controller 92 rotates the stepping motor 36a to cause the second lock cam 34 and the first lock cam 33 to rotate. Is rotated in the direction of arrow b from the state shown in FIG. 22 (d).

When the second lock cam 34 rotates in the direction of the arrow b to the state shown in FIG. 22B, the push-up portion 34a comes into contact with the pressing portion 29 of the bottom cover 22 to push up the bottom cover 22. Then, when the second lock cam 34 rotates in the direction of the arrow b until the state shown in FIG. 22A, the push-up operation by the push-up unit 34 is completed (step A8).

Here, the first lock cam 33 moves from the state shown in FIG. 22D to the state shown in FIG. While rotating in the direction, the slide lock 13 does not move because it does not contact the link 14. Thus, the lid 11 remains locked in the closed state.

FIGS. 26 (a) to 26 (c) are explanatory views showing the operation of the lock cam for unlocking the lid. FIG. 26A shows a state in which the first lock cam 33 and the second lock cam 34 are at the origin positions.

FIG. 26 (b) shows a state where the first lock cam 33 has been rotated 9 degrees in the direction of the arrow b in the origin position. When the first lock cam 33 rotates 9 degrees in the direction of the arrow b in the direction of the home position, it comes into contact with the cam contact surface 14b of the link 14.

FIG. 26 (c) shows a state in which the first lock cam 33 is also rotated by 75 degrees in the direction of the arrow b with respect to the origin position force. When the first lock cam 33 also rotates by 75 degrees in the direction of the arrow b in the direction of the arrow b, the cam contact surface 14b of the link 14 is pushed, and the link 14 is rotated in the direction of the arrow d with the shaft portion 14a as a fulcrum.

[0170] The link 14 is rotatably connected to the other end of the one end force slide lock 13 with the shaft portion 14a interposed therebetween. As a result, the rotation operation of the link 14 is converted into the slide movement operation of the slide lock 13, and the locking claw 16 retreats from the locking hole lib of the lid 11 shown in FIG.

[0171] As a result, the lock of the lid 11 is released, and the lid 11 can be removed from the insertion opening 9 by rotating in a predetermined direction (step A9).

[0172] While the second lock cam 34 also rotates the origin position force by 75 degrees in the direction of arrow b, the flat portion of the push-up portion 34a is in contact with the bottom cover 22 and locks the bottom cover 22 in a closed state. .

[0173] The system controller 92 stops driving the stepping motor 36a when the first lock cam 33 and the second lock cam 34 are also rotated by 75 degrees in the direction of the arrow b in the direction of the origin. Then, from the output of the upper lid detection sensor 19, it is detected whether or not the lid 11 has been removed (step A10).

[0174] When the lid 11 is still attached, the stepping motor 36a is kept stopped, and the unlocked state of the lid 11 is maintained.

When the lid 11 is removed, the system controller 92 rotates the stepping motor 36a to the state force arrow a shown in FIG. 26 (c) and returns it to the origin position shown in FIG. 26 (a) (step Al l).

[0176] The system controller 92 also determines that the output force of the cam position detection sensor 39 is the first lock cam 3 Upon detecting that the third and second lock cams 34 have returned to the home positions, the rotation of the stepping motor 36a is stopped.

As described above, when the first lock cam 33 is at the home position, the slide lock 1

In 3, the locking claw 16 projects from the input opening 9. When the second lock cam 34 is at the home position, the push-up portion 34a contacts the bottom cover 22 and pushes up. As a result, a state in which garbage can be input from the input opening 9 is obtained.

In a state where the bottom lid 22 is locked in the closed state with the second lock cam 34, the lower end surface of the push-up projection 32 is outside the rotation trajectory of the wing 46 of the rotary wing 44 and is closed. The bottom lid 22 in the state does not hinder the rotation of the rotor 44.

[0179] <Crushing and drying operation>

The garbage input from the garbage input device 3 to the garbage crushing and drying device 4 in the above-described charging operation is crushed and dried in the processing container 42.

[0180] In the crushing and drying operation in the processing container 42, since the bottom cover 22 needs to be closed, the operation of closing the bottom cover 22 is performed by the above-described charging operation, and it is detected that the container is normally closed. Then, the system controller 92 starts the crushing / drying operation.

That is, the PTC heater 52 is turned on, and the processing container 42 is heated. Further, the fan 69 is rotated to start blowing air from the slit 48 of the wing portion 46 of the rotary wing 44. Further, the rotation of the motor 67 is started, and the rotor 44 is rotated in the direction of arrow c.

When the rotary blade 44 is rotated in the direction of arrow c, the garbage in the processing container 42 is swept up by the blade 46 while being blown from the slit 48. When the wings 46 of the rotary wings 44 pass through the cutter 62 provided in the cover unit 58, the cutters 62 pass through the grooves 47 of the wings 46. Crushed at 62.

[0183] Since a plurality of cutters 62 are provided along the axial direction of the rotary wing 44, the garbage can be crushed with a small force. In addition, since the respective cutters 62 are also displaced in the circumferential direction, an excessive force is applied to the rotating blades 44, which is difficult to cause, for example, an event of simultaneously cutting one object with a plurality of cutters 62. Prevent that.

[0184] A wiper 50 is attached to the tip of the wing portion 46 of the rotary wing 44, and near the bottom of the processing container 42, the wiper 50 contacts the inner surface of the processing container 42. This allows raw Prevents mi from adhering to the processing container 42!

As described above, by rotating the rotating blades 44, while the garbage is stirred in the processing container 42, moisture is evaporated by blowing air from the slits 48 and dried. By heating the processing container 42 with the PTC heater 52, the evaporation of water is promoted.

[0186] Since the PTC heater 52 has a self-temperature control function, it does not consume more power than necessary.

Power consumption can be reduced.

[0187] In order to make the air blown from the rotary blades 44 into warm air, a heater is provided in the air blow path from the fan 69 and temperature control is required, which complicates the structure. By sticking 2 to the processing container 42 and using it, the garbage in the processing container 42 can be heated by blowing air at a normal temperature from the rotor 44 to promote drying. Drying also weakens the activity of microorganisms and suppresses odor generation.

[0188] The air in the processing container 42 is exhausted from the exhaust port 74 through the filter unit 75 and the check valve unit 76 to a drain pipe downstream from the drain trap. Since the exhaust port 74 is disposed at the upper part of the processing container 42, it prevents water from flowing directly. Further, by passing through the filter unit 75, it is possible to prevent the crushed and dried dry dust powder from being exhausted.

[0189] By providing the filter unit 75 with the brush 79 that can be operated from the outside as described above, the filter 78 can be cleaned without removing the filter unit 75, and clogging of the filter 78 can be prevented. it can. Further, instead of providing the brush 79, the filter 78 may be made detachable so that the filter can be washed.

[0190] Since the exhaust from the processing container 42 is performed downstream of the drain trap, water does not normally flow backward. However, when the drain pipe is clogged, the water may flow backward. For this reason, a sensor for detecting the inflow of water is provided in the path from the check valve 76 to the drain pipe. If water flows backward, the check valve 76 is closed, and the water flows into the treatment container 42. Prevent backflow.

[0191] <Opening / closing operation of cover unit>

During the crushing and drying operation described above, the cover unit 58 closes the outlet 53 of the processing container 42. The dried dust powder crushed and dried in the processing container 42 is discharged from the discharge outlet 53 by an operation described later. Therefore, the opening and closing operation of the cover unit 58 prior to the discharging operation Therefore, a description will be given with reference to FIGS. 13 (a) and 13 (b).

[0192] The cover unit 58 closes the discharge port 53 when the guide boss 59 is located at the closing guide portion 55a of the guide groove 55. At this time, by operating the operation lever 60, the plate 60a fits into the locking hole 57 of the guide rib 54. As a result, the cover unit 58 is locked with the outlet 53 closed. When the plate 60a of the operation lever 60 fits into the locking hole 57 of the guide rib 54, the output of the discharge opening / closing detection sensor 61 allows the system controller 92 to detect that the cover unit 58 is closed.

[0193] When the operating lever 60 is operated to retract the plate 60a from the locking hole 57, the cover unit 58 can be pulled forward along the guide groove 55. At this time, the guide boss 59 moves from the closed guide portion 55a to the elevating guide portion 55b in the guide groove 55. This allows the cover unit 58 to move up and down along the elevating guide portion 55b.

[0194] When the cover unit 58 is raised until the guide boss 59 reaches the upper end of the elevating guide portion 55b, the guide boss 59 is opened from the elevating guide portion 55b by pushing the cover unit 58 along the guide groove 55. Move to guide section 55c. As a result, the cover unit 58 is opened in front of the discharge port 53 and is held upright above the discharge port 53.

Here, since the cutter 62 is provided on the back surface of the cover unit 58, even if the cover unit 58 is opened as shown in FIG. 27, since the cutter 62 is located between the back surface of the cover unit 58 and the processing container 42, You cannot touch it.

[0196] As shown in FIG. 1, the processing container 42 is housed in the cover 41, so that the upper force of the opened force bar unit 58 cannot reach the back side, and touches the cutter 62. I can't do it!

As shown in FIG. 27, a small gap is formed between the bottom of the open cover unit 58 and the discharge port 53, but the hand is not accessible because the gap is narrow. I can't touch my hand.

[0198] When replacing the cutter 62, the entire cover unit 58 is replaced. First, the lock lever 56 is moved to open the detachable guide 55d. Then, the cover unit 58 is moved along the elevating guide portion 55b of the guide groove 55, the guide boss 59 is positioned at the detachable guide portion 55d, and the cover unit 58 is pulled toward the user. As a result, the guide boss 59 comes off the guide groove 55, and the cover unit 58 can be removed from the processing container. To attach the cover unit 58 to the processing container 42, reverse the removal procedure.

[0200] That is, with the lock lever 56 moved to open the detachable guide portion 55d, the guide boss 59 of the force bar unit 58 is fitted to the detachable guide portion 55d, and the cover unit 58 is pushed in. As a result, the guide boss 59 fits into the elevating guide portion 55b of the guide groove 55. Then, when the cover unit 58 is lowered until the guide boss 59 reaches the lower end of the elevating guide portion 55b, the guide boss 59 moves from the elevating guide portion 55b to the closing guide portion 55a by pushing the cover unit 58. As a result, the cover unit 58 is held with the outlet 53 closed.

[0201] Further, by moving the lock lever 56 and closing the attachment / detachment guide portion 56d, the cover unit 58 is prevented from being accidentally detached from the processing container 42 at the time of opening / closing and raising / lowering of the cover hood 58.

[0202] <Discharge operation>

FIG. 28 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing at the time of discharging. Upon detecting that the front panel 41a of the cover 41 shown in FIG. 1 has been opened and also detecting the output force of a sensor (not shown) (step B1), the system controller 92 determines from the output of the home position detection sensor 51a the rotation of the rotor 44. Detect the position. That is, when the rotor 44 is rotating, when the origin position detection sensor 51a detects the rotor 44, the rotation of the motor 67 is stopped, and the rotor 44 is stopped at the origin (step B2). . Further, the rotation of the fan 69 is stopped. In this example, when the rotation of the fan 69 stops, the check valve 72 closes. Further, the PTC heater 52 is stopped (step B3).

[0203] If the upper lid detection sensor 19 detects the lid 11 when the front panel 41a is opened, the above-described closing operation may be performed, and the discharging operation cannot be performed. It issues an alarm such as a lamp or lamp.

[0204] As shown in Fig. 29 (a), the user rotates the bag mounting arm 63 about the shaft 63a as a fulcrum, and pulls out the bag mounting arm 63 to the front of the apparatus. Then, the edge of the opening of the bag 101 is sandwiched between the spats of the bag mounting arm 63, and the bag 101 is opened (step B4). [0205] In order to prevent the cover unit 58 from being opened before the bag 101 is mounted, a mechanism that cannot open and close the cover unit 58 without pulling out the bag mounting arm 63 may be provided.

When the user pulls out the bag mounting arm 63 and mounts the bag 101, the cover unit 5

Operate the operating lever 60 of 8 to release the plate 60a from the locking hole 57 of the guide rib 54, and open the cover unit 58 as described above (step B5).

[0207] Here, the operation lever 60 of the cover unit 58 is operated, and the plate 60a is moved to the guide rib.

The system controller 92 detects from the output of the discharge port opening / closing detection sensor 61 that it has come off from the locking hole 57 of 54.

[0208] As shown in Fig. 29 (b), the user returns the bag mounting arm 63 to which the bag 101 has been mounted to the original position, covers the outlet 53 with the opening of the bag 101, and sets a predetermined position of the operation unit (not shown). Press the operation button (step B6).

[0209] When a predetermined operation button of the operation unit is pressed, the system controller 92 executes a dust discharge mode (step B7). Here, the dust discharge mode is executed when both unlocking by the operation lever 60 and pressing of the operation button are detected.

[0210] In the dust discharge mode, the system controller 92 drives the motor 67 to first rotate the rotor 44 at the origin position in the direction of arrow c as shown in FIG. The system controller 92 controls the driving time so that the rotation amount of the rotor 44 stops at a position where the tip of the wing portion 46 does not exceed the lower end of the discharge port 53. Control. This stop position is referred to as a dust discharge position.

[0211] When the rotating blade 44 is rotated to the origin position and the dust discharging position, the crushed and dried dry dust powder collected at the bottom of the processing container 42 is lifted up by the wing portion 46 of the rotating blade 44 and discharged. Exit 53.

As shown in FIG. 29 (b), since the bag 101 is attached to the outlet 53 by the bag attaching arm 63, the dried dust powder that has also been discharged from the outlet is collected in the bag 101. Here, while the rotating blade 44 rotates to the origin position and the dust discharging position, the wiper 50 moves while being in contact with the inner wall of the processing container 42, so that the residue of the dried dust can be prevented as much as possible. The gap between the inner wall of the processing container 42 and the tip of the wiper 50 is so large that the dry dust does not fall downward. Degree.

[0213] In addition, by providing the discharge plate 64 below the discharge port 53, when the discharge port 53 is covered with the bag 101, the discharge plate 64 enters the inside of the bag 101, and when the discharging operation is performed, the dry dust powder is removed. Is prevented from entering the bag 101 and being scattered outside.

[0214] When the rotary blade 44 is also rotated to the dust discharging position by rotating the rotary blade 44 to the dust discharge position, the system controller 92 reverses the motor 67, and rotates the rotary blade 44 in the direction of arrow d by a predetermined amount as shown in FIG. The system controller 92 controls the rotation amount of the rotating blade 44 by, for example, controlling the driving time so that the rotating amount of the rotating blade 44 stops at a predetermined position beyond the home position as shown in FIG. I do. This stop position is referred to as a return position.

[0215] Then, after performing the reciprocating operation to the dust return position force return position a plurality of times, the system controller 92 stops the rotor 44 at the origin position, and reports that the dust discharge operation has been completed to a buzzer, a lamp, or the like. To notify the user (step B8).

[0216] As described above, the reciprocating operation of the rotary wing 44 to the return position of the dust discharging position allows the collected dry dust powder collected at the bottom of the processing container 42 to be reliably discharged from the discharge port 53. it can. Note that the reciprocating operation of the rotary wing 44 is between about 90 degrees.

[0217] As described above, the dust discharge position of the rotor 44 is set so that the tip of the wing portion 46 does not exceed the lower end of the outlet 53, thereby ensuring the safety of the return operation of the rotor 44. I do. At the refuse discharge position, the orientation of the slit of the rotor 44 should not be higher than horizontal.

[0218] This is because, in the dust discharge mode, the ventilation from the fan 69 is stopped, and the ventilation from the slit 48 is not performed. Therefore, when the angle of the slit 48 becomes horizontal or more, the dried dust Etc. may enter the inside of the rotor 44 from the slit 48. Therefore, in the dust discharge mode, the amount of rotation of the rotor 44 is controlled so that the slit 48 does not become horizontal or higher.

[0219] Here, in the reciprocating operation of the rotary blade to the dust return position force return position, for example, the rotary blade 44 starts rotating in the direction of arrow d from the dust discharge position, and even after a predetermined time elapses, the origin position is maintained. If the detection sensor 51a does not detect the passage of the rotor 44, it is determined that the rotor 44 cannot be rotated due to a foreign object or the like, and the rotation of the rotor 44 is stopped, and an alarm is generated by a buzzer, a lamp, or the like. .

[0220] When a buzzer, a lamp, or the like is notified that the dust discharging operation has been completed, the user is notified of the bag. Pull out the mounting arm 63 (step B9) and close the outlet 53 with the cover unit 58. Then, the operating lever 60 of the cover unit 58 is operated to fit the plate 60a into the engaging hole 57 of the guide rib 54 (Step B10).

[0221] Here, the operation lever 60 of the cover unit 58 is operated, and the plate 60a is moved to the guide rib.

When fitted in the locking hole 57 of 54, the output force of the outlet opening / closing detection sensor 61 also

92 detects lock of the cover unit 58.

[0222] The user further removes the bag containing the dried dust from the bag mounting arm 63 and discards it.

Then, the bag mounting arm 63 is returned. Finally, the front panel 41a of the cover 41 is closed (step Bl l).

[0223] When the closing of the front panel 41a of the cover 41 is detected from the output of the panel opening / closing detection sensor 93, the system controller 92 detects that the output bar of the outlet opening / closing detection sensor 61 has locked the power bar unit 58. If this is the case, a standby state for the above-mentioned garbage input operation is established. When the lock of the cover unit 58 is not detected when the front panel 41a of the cover 41 is closed, the system controller 92 issues an alarm with a buzzer, a lamp, or the like.

[0224] Here, in the above-described discharge operation example, the procedure of operating the operation button after opening the cover unit 58 is described. However, the procedure of opening the cover unit 58 after operating the operation button may be performed. In this case, after considering the time from when the operation button is operated to detect the release of the lock from the output of the outlet opening / closing detection sensor 61 to when the cover unit 58 is actually opened, after a predetermined time lag, Then, the rotating operation of the rotary blade 44 in the above-described dust discharge mode is executed.

[0225] Although not shown, by providing a drawable tray in the space formed below the processing container 42, it is possible to prevent the dried dust powder spilled during the discharging operation from falling into the cover 41. it can.

[0226] If foreign matter such as a fork is erroneously input from the input opening 9 shown in Fig. 1, since the opening area of the discharge port 53 is larger than that of the bottom lid 22, the foreign substance dropped in the processing container 42 Then, it is possible to discharge from the discharge port 53 by the above-described discharging operation.

[0227] Detection of the amount of dust in the processing container> As the amount of refuse in the processing container 42 increases, the processing capacity decreases. Therefore, the amount of dust in the processing container is detected, and when the amount of dust is large, the above-described discharging operation is prompted.

FIG. 33 (a) and FIG. 33 (b) show the configuration and operation of dust detection. A full tank detection sensor 88 is provided at a predetermined height on the side of the processing container 42, and detects the magnet 89a provided on the fin 89 when the fin 89 is pushed up by garbage or the like by the operation of the rotary wing 44. .

[0229] As shown in Fig. 33 (b), when the amount of dust is large, when the fan 44 is rotated in the direction of arrow c during the stirring / drying operation, a full tank detection sensor 88 is output until the garbage passes through the fins 89. Is turned on, the ON time of the full tank detection sensor 88 becomes longer.

[0230] As a result, when the ON time of the full tank detection sensor 88 exceeds the predetermined time, the system controller 92 determines that the amount of dust in the processing container 42 has exceeded the specified amount. As a specific example, assuming that the total ON time of the full tank detection sensor 88 during a fixed time of about 30 minutes is detected, and the total ON time of the full tank detection sensor 88 becomes about 10 minutes. An alarm is generated with a buzzer, lamp, etc. to urge the operator to perform the discharge operation. Also, do not perform the above-mentioned closing operation. Further, an alarm may be issued in a state where additional garbage can be added.

[0231] <Air volume control by fan>

As described above, when the amount of debris in the processing container 42 is full, the force that prompts the execution of the discharging operation is increased. Loss increases. In addition, the pressure loss increases due to dirt adhering to the piping and the like. Normally, as the pressure loss increases, the rotation speed of the fan 69 increases. For this reason, the rotation speed of the fan 69 is detected, and the rotation speed of the fan 69 is controlled with reference to a table or the like shown in FIG.

[0232] For example, after selecting the number of revolutions for driving the fan 69 at the indicated amount of air from the amount of air indicated on the table and the current applied voltage, the selected number of revolutions is compared with the actual number of revolutions, The applied voltage is controlled so that the number of rotations is the same.

In the garbage processing apparatus 1, the processing container 42 and its peripheral devices are attached to the inside of the cover 41 as described above, and constitute an apparatus main body. Further, the lower unit 6 constituting the garbage injecting device 3 is attached to the processing container 42. And the cover 41 is This is a mode in which the charging cylinder 21 of the lower unit 6 and the drive shaft 35 are exposed.

[0234] To install the garbage disposal apparatus 1, first, the apparatus main body including the lower unit 6 is attached to a predetermined position below the sink 2, as shown in Fig. 35.

Next, the upper unit 5 is also fitted to the opening of the sink 2 with an upward force. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the insertion opening 9 of the upper unit 5 and the connecting portion 24 of the injection cylinder 21 of the lower unit 6 are fitted. Here, in the connecting part 24, the insertion part length at the position where the charging cylinder part 21 and the charging opening part 9 are fitted has a margin, and a scale is displayed so that a minimum necessary overlapping margin can be visually recognized. is there. Thereby, it is possible to easily and reliably determine at the time of construction that the charging opening 9 and the charging cylinder 21 that require waterproofing are securely connected.

[0236] The tip force of the drive shaft 35 on the lower unit 6 side is fitted to the shaft support 15 of the upper unit 5. When the tip of the drive shaft 35 is fitted to the shaft support 15 of the upper unit 5, the first lock cam 33 is in a positional relationship where the first lock cam 33 can contact the cam contact surface 14b of the link 14.

[0237] As described above, the cam contact surface 14b of the link 14 has a width in the up-down direction.

Similarly, the contact range between the tip of the drive shaft 35 and the shaft support 15 has a width in the vertical direction.

[0238] Therefore, the difference in the vertical dimension due to the installed sink 2 is absorbed by the dimensions of the connection part 24, the force contact surface 14b, and the shaft support part 15, so that the height of the apparatus body in the height direction is reduced. No fine adjustment is required. Then, the upper unit 5 is fixed to the sink 2 by screwing a fixing ring (not shown) into the upper unit 5. The mounting and fixing of the upper unit 5 can be appropriately selected according to the sink using existing technology.

[0239] This eliminates the need for leveling work or the like that accompanies the height adjustment of the apparatus main body, thereby shortening the construction time and reducing assembly failure during construction. In addition, since the cover 41 is not provided with the height adjusting mechanism, the gap between the lower portion of the cover 41 and the installation surface can be reduced, and the accumulation of dust and the like due to long-term use can be prevented.

[0240] Although the invention has been described in detail and with reference to specific embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. [0241] This application is based on a Japanese patent application filed on June 4, 2004 (Japanese Patent Application No. 2004-167816) and a Japanese patent application filed on June 4, 2004 (Japanese Patent Application No. 2004-167817). And its contents are incorporated herein by reference.
