Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable garbage to be packed and sealed into a garbage bag without touching it with hands by moving a bottom-opening-type drainage plug cage between a drainage plug and a garbage disposal part, and also by opening the bottom cover when the cage has been moved to the disposal part for dropping the garbage into a garbage bag, and then by packing it in the bag by means of a pack-and-sealing device. CONSTITUTION:When a garbage disposal button is pushed, a movable rack 8 is moved, and both a bottom-opening-type drainage plug cage 3 and a shutter 5 move in the direction of the arrow A. When the rack is moved up to the upper part of a garbage vessel 10 to which a garbage bag 11 has been fitted, the bottom cover 3a of the drainage plug cage 3 is opened by gravity because there is no bottom-cover supporting body 2a, so that the garbage 4 in the cage drops into the garbage bag 11. When a sealing button is pushed, an electrode driving rack 19 and an electrode-receiver driving rack 20 approaches to each other to the center, so that the garbage bag 11 containing the garbage 4 is pressedly brought into contact. At the same time, the voltage of a power supply 25 is applied to both a sealing heater 21 and a bag-sealing heater 22, so that the garbage bag 11 is packedly sealed, and simultaneously the bottom of the subsequent bag is sealed.
