Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to paper, waste cans, bottles, etc. generated from households, business establishments, stores, etc., and relates to a processing apparatus mainly for households, which simply reduces the amount of waste. It is a thing.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A large amount of garbage is discharged every day from human activities such as homes, business establishments, stores, etc., which is a big social problem. However, these treatments have not changed much from the past, and it is general that a collection vehicle goes to a place for a predetermined time, collects them, and collectively and collectively at a treatment facility such as an incinerator or a landfill. That's the method. Therefore, it was necessary for ordinary households to store the garbage until the specified date when it was collected. In order to eliminate these inconveniences, some devices and methods have been proposed to treat the waste at (the vicinity of) the place where it is generated, but most of them are dedicated to garbage, such as disposers, and other waste. On the other hand, the current situation was merely to enlighten the thoroughness of separate collection for recycling and recycling.

[0003]

As described above, the disposal of waste is carried out by the three methods of final disposal: incineration, landfill, and recycling. Among them, the problems that are now becoming apparent are the lack of space for landfilling unburnable waste and the increase in recovery costs, including transportation. The cause is that the amount (volume) of waste is large in both cases, and the reduction of the amount is indispensable as a countermeasure. On the other hand, the large amount (volume) of the waste is also a cause of the increase in the waste storage space even at homes, business establishments, stores, etc., where the waste is generated. On the other hand, looking at the conventional waste treatment equipment, the main treatment equipment is food waste such as disposers, there is no effective means for other waste, and it is in a state that is practically not available. Therefore, the early appearance was a problem.

The present invention solves the above problems and has a simple structure for garbage generated at homes, businesses, stores, etc.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a processing apparatus that enables a reduction (volume reduction) of dust at a place where dust is generated by a simple operation.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by mounting an exterior unit having a ceiling portion, an outer cylindrical container opening upward, and suspending it inside the upper cylindrical part of the outer cylindrical container. A bag, a packing material provided between the bag and the upper part of the outer cylinder container, and a frame body that is pressed into the bag to sandwich the bag between the packing material and fix the bag at the upper part of the outer container. A dust container that is suspended in a frame and hung in a bag and has a variable inner volume, and a compression unit having a pneumatic unit for sending air to the space formed by the outer container and the bag, and the ceiling of the exterior unit The part and the upper part of the compression unit are configured to be freely contactable with and separable from each other to form a waste treatment device.

[0006]

The present invention uses the above structure and mechanism to remove dust
An apparatus for easily and hygienically reducing weight is provided. That is, in order to compress and reduce the amount of waste contained in the waste container, the waste container having a variable inner volume is forcibly operated using air pressure to reduce the inner volume and compress the waste. The waste is easily compressed as the internal volume of the waste container changes, and the volume is greatly reduced. This compression step may be repeated multiple times during the process. In this way, a reduction in the amount of waste is easily achieved.

EXAMPLES Specific examples will be described in detail below. FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of an essential part showing an embodiment of a refuse processing apparatus according to the present invention. Reference numeral 1 is an exterior, and a ceiling portion 2 is formed on the upper portion thereof. The ceiling portion 2 has sufficient strength to resist a compressive force (described later) from below, has a hollow portion 3 inside, and communicates with the outside through a hole a4 and a hole b15. A deodorizer may be provided in the hollow portion 3 if necessary. Alternatively, the hollow passage 3 may not be provided, and a communication passage (hole) that connects the upper surface and the lower surface of the ceiling portion 2 may be provided. The exterior unit is configured as described above. An outer cylindrical container 5 has an opening upward and a packing material 6 is provided on the upper part thereof. Reference numeral 7 denotes a bag made of a flexible and substantially airtight material, which is made of a plastic sheet material here. Reference numeral 8 denotes a frame body, which is pushed into the inside of the bag 7 to sandwich the bag with the packing material 6 and fix it to the upper portion of the outer cylindrical container 5. The frame 8 has a U-shaped cross section, and has a tapered outer surface so that the frame 8 can be easily pushed into the bag 7. A waste container 9 is provided inside the frame body 8.
Suspend. The waste container 9 is composed of a plurality of cylinders 9a, 9b, 9c having different diameters and a bottom plate 9d, and each is configured so that its inner volume is variable by sliding while contacting side walls with each other. .. Further, the side wall height of the bottom plate 9d is smaller than the side wall height of the cylindrical bodies 9a to 9c. As described above, the waste container 9 is configured to have a multi-node shape so that it can be expanded and contracted, and as a result, the internal volume becomes variable. Put garbage in this. The waste container 9 is made of glass fiber reinforced plastic (F
Although it is made of RP) material, a metal material or the like can be used. Reference numeral 12 denotes an air pump used as an air pressure feeding means, which sucks the outside air through the suction port 12a and projects the air through the projecting port 12b into the air chamber 11 formed by the outer cylinder container 5 and the bag 7, Is pressed from the outside to compress the dust container 9 upward. The bag 7 is thus the air chamber 1
In addition to being the constituent material of No. 1, it also plays a role of receiving moisture and dirt adhering to the dust contained in the dust container 9, and when its inner surface is soiled by a plurality of treatments, or a part thereof If the air chamber 11 cannot be kept airtight due to damage, the frame 8 can be removed and replaced easily. The air pump 12 may be attached to the exterior 1 and communicated with the air chamber 11 by an elastic hose. When the set pressure at the time of pressurization is reduced, a high-pressure fan can be used instead of the air pump 12. Here, the set pressure at the time of pressurization is 0.2 kg / cm ²
Since the lateral cross-sectional area of the waste container is about 300 cm ² , a high compression force of about 60 kg in total can be exerted. The set pressure can be further increased, and the compressive force of about 10 to 20 times the above can be easily generated. Therefore, it is possible to select an appropriate compression force in a wide range according to the type of waste to be compressed, but when mainly targeting paper dust, a relatively weak compression force may be used. A strong compressive force is required when compressing and breaking glass bottles. However, from the viewpoint of the safety of the device, it is advantageous to set the compressive force that can be processed and is as weak as possible, because a special pressure resistant configuration is unnecessary and an inexpensive configuration is possible. As described above, the outer cylinder container 5, the packing material 6, the bag 7, the frame body 8, the dust container 9, and the air pump 12 constitute a compression unit, and the whole unit is fixed on the vertical movement mechanism 13. The lower surface of the ceiling portion 2 with respect to the exterior unit and the compression unit can be brought into and out of contact with each other by operating the vertical movement mechanism 13. Further, the compression unit including the vertical movement mechanism 13 can be pulled out to the left side in the drawing by the wheel 14, and is used when, for example, throwing in dust.

Next, the operation will be described. First, the compression unit is pulled out to put the waste in the waste container 9.
After that, the same unit is pushed into the exterior 1 to move the vertical movement mechanism 1
3 is operated and joined to the lower surface of the ceiling portion 2 of the exterior unit.
Then the compression operation is started. In this embodiment, air pressure is used for the compression operation. When air pressure is used, a large compression force can be obtained with a small pressure, and this is an advantageous method from the viewpoint of safety and the like. First, when the air pump 12 is started, outside air passes from the suction port 12a through the projecting port 12b to the air chamber 11
Is introduced and pressurized. Due to the air pressure, the bag 7 begins to contract, pushing up the bottom of the dust container 9, and the dust container 9 is compressed in the vertical direction to reduce its internal volume. At the same time, the dust contained in the dust container 9 is also compressed as the internal volume changes. This compression step may be repeated multiple times during heating. The garbage that has become a small lump pulls out the compression unit,
Remove from the garbage container 9 and discard. In the present invention, since the waste container 9 is composed of the three stages of cylinders 9a to 9c and the bottom plate 9d, the height of the compressed dust is regulated by the height of the side wall of the bottom plate 9d or the input amount. .. In order to reduce the compression rate of compressible dust such as paper and empty cans, it is effective to make the side wall height of the bottom tray 9d sufficiently smaller than the side wall height of the cylinders 9a to 9c. With this configuration, in this embodiment, the compression ratio can be reduced to about 1/7 in one processing. , It is also possible to stack new garbage on it and treat it multiple times. In addition, odors may be generated by the residue of food and the like attached to the garbage. Therefore, a method of installing an oxidation catalyst, an ozone deodorizer, a deodorizer such as an adsorbent in the hollow portion 3 for removing the odor is also effective. By doing so, the odorous components exhausted during compression can be purified and made odorless.

In this embodiment, the exterior unit is fixed, and the compression unit is moved when the dust is put in and taken out. However, conversely, the compression unit is fixed, and the ceiling portion 3 of the exterior unit is used as a lid to cover the dust when putting in and taking out the dust. It is of course possible to open and close.

[0010]

Industrial Applicability According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the amount of various kinds of dust very easily by forcibly contracting the dust container using air pressure by using the above-described structure and treatment mechanism. To do. With this unique configuration,
The device becomes compact and inexpensive. In addition, by using this device to reduce the amount of waste, it is possible to reduce the space for storing waste at homes and other places where waste is generated.
It also contributes to reducing waste transportation costs and saving space in the landfill, which is the final treatment facility.
