【Example】

 FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating an example of a garbage processing apparatus according to the present invention. In the figure, 1 indicates an ordinary sink in a kitchen of a general household. The sink 1 has a drain 2 as usual, and a lid 3 is arranged on this drain 2, which lid 3 can regulate the flow of drainage, for example, a commonly used slot and a plurality of rotations. It is provided with an adjusting device constituted by a blade plate.

2 and 3 are schematic sectional views showing the schematic diagram of FIG. 1 divided into an upper portion and a lower portion. With reference to these drawings, an inner container 4 for accommodating the kitchen waste discharged from the drainage port 2 is arranged downstream of the drainage port 2, and almost the lower half of the inner container 4 is the treated kitchen waste. The openings 4a are formed in a mesh shape so that they can pass through. A rotary crushing blade 6 fixed to a drive shaft 5 is arranged at a position slightly spaced from the bottom of the inner container 4. The drive shaft 5 projects from the bottom of the inner container 4 via a bearing 7 from below. Although not shown, the drive shaft 5 and the crushing blade 6 can be connected by, for example, spline connection, screw connection, or the like. In this embodiment, the drive shaft 5 is the shaft of the pulley 10 which is linked to the output shaft 9 of the electric motor 8 via the belt 10 '.

On the outside of the inner container 4, there is a container 11 surrounding the inner container 4, and the upper end of the container 11 is connected to the drain port 2 by a suitable method. A discharge port 12 is provided at the bottom of the container 11, and a discharge pipe 13 connected to a sewer pipe (not shown) is connected to the discharge port 12. An accommodating portion 14 for accommodating the bearing 7 is provided in the center of the bottom of the container 11, and the drive shaft 5 described above projects into the inner container 4 through the bearing 7. A pedestal 15 is arranged between the accommodating portion 14 and the bottom of the inner container 4, and this pedestal serves to fix the inner container 4. The pedestal 15 may be placed on the bottom surface of the container 11 or may be made of an elastic material.

A pulley 10 is integrally rotatably attached to the lower end of the drive shaft 5, and the pulley 10 is connected to an output shaft 9 of an electric motor 8 via a belt 10 '. The electric motor 8 is arranged at the bottom of an outer container 16 surrounding the container 11, and the housing portion of the outer container 16 at which the electric motor 8 is accommodated is partitioned by a partition plate 17 to form a liquid-tight chamber. An opening 16a through which the discharge pipe passes is provided on the lower side of the outer container 16. In FIG. 3, what is indicated by A in the inner container 4 is the accumulated garbage.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment made according to the present invention will be described. A person who works in front of the sink 1 removes the lid 3 from the drainage port 2 and places it. In this state, kitchen waste generated during cooking or washing, that is, raw garbage, is directly discharged into the inner container 4 and accumulated. After completion of cooking or washing work, or after confirming an appropriate amount of raw garbage accumulated in the inner container 4, the lid 3 is fitted into the drainage port 2 and a power source (not shown) is turned on to drive the electric motor 8 To start. As a result, the output shaft 9 of the electric motor 8 rotates, and this rotation is transmitted to the pulley 10 via the belt 10 'to rotate the drive shaft 5 integrated with the pulley 10. Along with the rotation of the drive shaft 5, the rotary crushing blade 6 fixed to the upper end of the drive shaft 5 rapidly rotates to crush the garbage accumulated in the inner container 4. At this time, the lid 3 is opened such that some drainage is allowed and the crushed raw garbage is not blown into the sink 1.

The raw garbage A accumulated in the inner container 4 is crushed into fine pieces so that it can be discharged to the outside of the inner container 4 through an opening 4a formed in a net shape in a substantially lower half of the inner container 4, The water flows into the container 11 through the opening 4a together with the drainage flowing into the inner container 4, and is discharged from the discharge port 12 through the discharge pipe 13 to a sewer pipe (not shown). The size of the individual openings 4a allows for the release of shredded waste that does not cause the shredded raw garbage to be discharged to be deposited in the discharge pipe 13 and the sewer pipe, and does not affect the water quality standards set by each municipality. Designed to size.

When the kitchen waste treatment apparatus according to the present embodiment is used, the objects that can be crushed by flowing it into the drainage port are limited to those that can be processed by the rotary crushing blade 6 arranged in the inner container 4, so this apparatus is used. Explain to the users of the system that this device can only handle garbage and that improper use will damage the device or cause malfunction or clogging of the sewer pipe. In order to avoid it, the practice of sorting garbage and non-garbage will be learned naturally, and not only will this equipment be prevented from malfunctioning, but attention will also be paid to the sorting of garbage from households, which is a social problem. , It also helps local governments, etc. to provide guidance on garbage measures.

In the above description, the lid 3 is to be removed and placed during cooking or washing work, but a worker, a child, or a metal such as a spoon or a skewer which may damage the rotary crushing blade, has a drainage port. If there is a risk of falling from 2 into the inner container 4, the lid 3 is fitted into the drainage port 2 during the work, and the garbage is stored in the container arranged at the corner of the sink 1 as in the conventional case. After the work is completed, the lid 3 may be removed and discharged into the inner container 4.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the crushing operation of the garbage accumulated in the inner container 4 is explained to be started at the end of each cooking or washing operation or by confirming an appropriate amount of accumulation. The crushing work may be started by electrically detecting the amount in response to the force applied to the cradle 15.
