Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a waste compacting unit of many kinds, such as plastic, metal, glass containers, capable of shrinking the waste before their disposal and their collection by a public disposal centre, and of assisting a separate waste collection.
  • machines exist for solid waste treatment, such as plastic, metal, glass bottles or containers, capable of compacting the waste before disposal and collection by a public disposal centre so that the waste has a minimum encumbrance.
  • a waste compacting machine is described in W02004106046 . It provides a compacting step of the waste arranged within plastic bags, and at the same time it can compact containers of glass, plastics and metal.
  • the compression of the waste arranged in a bin is carried out by a pantograph, which moves a piston and is operated by a carriage and by a cam. The piston enters the bin and compacts the waste in it present, sliding in a previously arranged shell, for preventing the waste containing plastic bags to be damaged.
  • Another type of waste compacting machine provides a frame having three apertures for introducing the waste.
  • means are provided for compacting plastic waste and metal waste, associated respectively to a first and a second aperture.
  • Means for crushing glass waste is provided adjacent to a compacting means and are associated to the third aperture.
  • At least one open bin is provided, arranged below a compacting and crushing means, where the crushed waste and the compacted waste are respectively collected.
  • a compacting means comprise a movable support frame on which two compacting plates are mounted that can slide with respect to each other within a couple of cylinders with axes parallel to each other.
  • the first cylinder is suitable for receiving plastic waste and the second cylinder is suitable for receiving metal waste.
  • a further technical problem of the apparatus of prior art is that they can treat single species of waste.
  • most of the known waste treating apparatus are capable to process a single kind of waste, without assisting completely a separate waste collection, i.e. their sorted collection in different containers.
  • waste treating apparatus for kitchen units comprising a compacting unit and an organic waste grinding unit that are integrated in the waste treating apparatus in order to process both organic waste, by said waste grinding unit, and inorganic waste by said compacting unit and to carry out a separate waste collection.
  • the compacting unit and the organic waste grinding unit are positioned in a side by side arrangement and overhead of respective collecting bins for separate collection of the respective treated waste.
  • the compacting unit comprises:
  • said compacting means divides said compacting chamber into two parts in each of which said waste to compact can be put.
  • the waste compacting means provides a compacting plate mounted on a carriage reciprocating along said working direction.
  • piercing means are provided cooperating with said compacting means to cause a volume reduction of the waste.
  • the base is divided into two portions that can move independently between a supporting position and a releasing position.
  • the organic waste grinding unit comprises:
  • the compacting means comprises a base for supporting the waste during compacting, the base being movable between a supporting position, where it prevents an access towards said collecting bin, and a releasing position, where it allows an access towards said collecting bin.
  • the grinding unit may comprise at least one knife rotating about an axis suitable for cooperating with a stationary knife connected to the wall of the grinding chamber, in order to grind the waste coming from the inlet.
  • the grinding unit comprises a plurality of knives arranged on the boundary of a rotating drum capable of rotating about its own longitudinal axis.
  • the compacting unit comprises a compacting plate mounted on a carriage reciprocating along a working direction.
  • a modular element for kitchen units comprises a compacting unit, said modular element comprising a piece of furniture having a height, depth and width of standard size for kitchen units.
  • a waste compacting unit 1 provides a compacting chamber 3 in which the waste 30 to dispose of is put, such as bottles and containers of various type of glass, plastics or metal, for reducing its volume and assisting its following disposal in public collecting centres.
  • the waste is put into chamber 3 through a first inlet 103a or a second inlet 103b, shown in a top plan view of figure 4 , according to the kind of the material to treat in order to assist a separate waste collection.
  • a compacting plate 2 is mounted sliding along a working direction 100 by means of a carriage 20.
  • Compacting plate 2 divides compacting chamber 3 into two parts 3a and 3b that are accessible when the machine is turned off for disposing the waste of, through the respective inlets 103a and 103b.
  • plate 2 can act along the above described working direction 100 both in one direction 101 and in an opposite direction 102 ( figure 4 ).
  • This is allowed according to the invention by the transmission mechanism of carriage 20 and then of compacting plate 2.
  • the mechanism of transmission of the movement provides a bidirectional motor 50 that operates a worm screw 55. According to the speed of rotating shaft 51 of motor 50, worm screw 55 moves in one direction ( figure 5 ), or in the opposite direction ( figure 6 ), causing the pulley 11 that engages with it to rotate in the corresponding direction.
  • a belt 15 connects pulley 11 to a plurality of other pulleys 12, 13 and 14 that transmit the movement to carriage 20 by rotating shaft 23.
  • piercing elements 5 are provided connected to side support plates 6.
  • piercing elements 5 pierce its surface obtaining a corresponding number of holes 31, that assist the exit of air contained inside during a compacting step ( figure 3 ). This way, the waste is compacted easily and at the same time an explosion of the container is avoided, owing to the air trapped by a stopper 32, avoiding to damage the machine.
  • the motor 50 can be associated to a control circuit, not shown in the figures, suitable for repeating for a predetermined number of times the last portion of the stroke of compacting plate 2 during a waste compacting step.
  • a qualitative diagram is given of the position (x) of plate 2 versus time (t), under this repetition procedure of the compacting step. More in detail, starting from a starting position x 0 , at time to, plate 2 approaches side wall 6 of chamber 3, and compacts a first time the waste, as shown graphically by coordinates (x1, t1). Then plate 2 withdraws and reaches position x 2 , at time t 2 .
  • the base of chamber 3 is associated to means that cause its opening/closing in synchronism with the compacting step. This is obtained by operating the opening/closing mechanism directly by carriage 20, as shown in particular in figures 7 and 8 .
  • an independent motor can operate the opening/closing mechanism.
  • base 4 of compacting chamber 3 is provided divided into two portions 4a and 4b which can be operated independently.
  • the portion 4a of base 4 is in a supporting position to prevent an access to bin 35a ( figure 7 ).
  • the portion 4a of base 4 rotates about a hinge 14a and reaches a releasing position in order to cause the waste 30 already compacted to reach bin 35a ( figure 8 ).
  • an interposition plate 7 is provided capable of translating, biased by resilient means 8, towards/away from side walls 6, which are equipped with piercing elements 5. More in detail, during a compacting step of the waste ( figure 9C ), interposition plate 7 of compacting chamber 3b translates progressively towards side walls 6, owing to the force exerted by the waste 30 being compacted, thus loading resilient means 8. At the end of a compacting step, resilient means 8 cause interposition plate 7 to move away from the relative side wall 6 in a withdrawn position ( figure 9D ). This way, the extraction is obtained from piercing elements 5 of the already compacted waste 30 that can then fall down in the waste collecting bin ( figure 9E ).
  • base 4 of compacting chamber 3 provides two separate portions 4a and 4b, these comprise independent engaging/releasing means 40-41.
  • the engaging/releasing means provides a protruding side 40 integral to the relative base portion 4 suitable for engaging/releasing in/from a groove 41 executed in the interposition plate 7 of compacting chamber 3.
  • the protruding side 40 leaves groove 41 and allows base 4 to move to the releasing position.
  • pieces of waste 30 can be put in the two portions 3a and 3b before starting the machine.
  • the piece of waste arranged in portion 3b of the compacting chamber is processed, the piece of waste 30' arranged in portion 3a is supported by base 4a, awaiting to be compacted in turn.
  • the compacting unit 1 above described can be integrated within a piece of furniture for kitchen units 150 having a size (depth and width) for example of 30*60, 45*60 cm, etc. ( figure 11 ).
  • compacting unit 1 may be coupled, within a piece of furniture for kitchen units 200, sized as a standard module, to an organic waste grinding unit 10 ( figures 10A, 10B and 12 ).
  • organic waste grinding unit 10 figures 10A, 10B and 12 .
  • compacting unit 1 and organic waste grinding unit 10 are positioned in a side by side arrangement and overhead of respective collecting bins 35a, 35b, 35c for separate collection of the respective treated waste.
  • a household appliance 200 is obtained capable to process both organic waste, by grinding unit 10, and inorganic waste by compacting unit 1. It is thus possible to carry out a separate waste collection and then an effective and environmentally acceptable operation.
  • a user can load the waste to be treated in the front of the modular element and the user can unload treated waste by removing the collecting bins 35a, 35b, 35c from the front of the household appliance 200.
  • waste sorting means 120, 121 and 130 comprises a sieve 121 movable between a first position, where it allows the percolation of only the waste liquid fraction, and a second position, where it allows the passage also of the waste solid fraction.
  • the liquid residues percolating from the waste through the chamber 110 exits through an outlet 300.
  • the sieve 121 is operatively connected by a rod 120 to a control valve 130, arranged downstream of a grinding chamber 110, in order to synchronize its movements.
  • the second step of the organic waste treatment provides the arrangement of sieve 121 in the second position, in order to cause the solid fraction of the processed waste to reach grinding chamber 110 where a fine grinding is made by knives 115, which are arranged on the boundary of a rotating drum 111 and cooperate with a stationary knife 116 connected to the wall of chamber 110, in order to provide a substantially "comb-shaped" structure.
