Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a garbage disposal device, and more particularly to a garbage disposal device provided in a sink drain of a kitchen sink.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, in the conventional technique disclosed in the disposer of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-203651, when crushing garbage, a nearby faucet is opened in advance to supply tap water, and then the switch is turned on. After operating the motor, the garbage is put in through the inlet and the crushed garbage is discharged together with tap water.

Therefore, for example, about 5 to 7 L / min of tap water is run for several minutes before the raw garbage is crushed and before the crushed raw garbage is sent to a predetermined position such as a drain pipe without being clogged. It has to be continued and a considerable amount of tap water has to be wasted for the processing of food waste.

[0004]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to dispose of garbage smoothly and to save tap water, and for example, to dispose of garbage which can be easily attached to an existing single sink type sink. It is to provide a device.

[0005]

In order to solve this problem, the passage from the sink of the sink to the drainage pipe is divided into a plurality of passages, and one of the passages communicates with the crushing mechanism as a dust input passage, and the other passage. The passage communicates with the water storage tank, and the downstream side of the water storage tank communicates with the crushing mechanism.

[0006] Wastewater generated during dishwashing during ordinary cooking is filtered and temporarily stored in a water storage tank and supplied at the time of crushing food waste, thereby facilitating the crushing action and the discharging action and drainage. It can be reused, and the tap water that was conventionally drained from the faucet each time the garbage is crushed can be saved significantly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows a kitchen waste disposal apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The state in which the crushing mechanism 8 driven by is attached in a watertight manner is shown.

As shown in detail in FIG. 2, the opening 4 has a cylindrical body 10 detachably attached to the opening 9A of the casing 9 located above the crushing mechanism 8.

The cylindrical body 10 is provided with an input port 10A for food waste leading to the crushing mechanism 8 as shown in FIG. 3, and a drain port 10B around the input port. In addition, the filter body 1 is provided at the drain port 10B.
2 is attached, and the water collecting port 10C located on the downstream side communicates with the crushing mechanism 8 via the water storage tank 14 and the pump 16.

Further, on the downstream side of the crushing mechanism 8, the discharge port 2 is provided.
It is connected to a water treatment facility (not shown) such as a combined treatment septic tank located downstream through 0.

That is, from the sink 2 of the sink to the outlet 20
Is divided into a plurality of passages, one of the passages is connected to the crushing mechanism 8 as a dust input passage, and the other passage is connected to the filter body 1.
2 communicates with the water storage tank 14 via 2 and transfers the kitchen waste water accumulated in the water storage tank 14 to the crushing mechanism 8 by the pump 16 to smoothly discharge the crushed food waste to the discharge port 20 and re-use the kitchen waste water. To use.

Here, by providing the drainage port 10B with an annular shape around the input port 10A, the drainage water generated during normal hand washing and cooking is preferentially guided to the water storage tank 14, and the water in the water storage tank 14 is Frequent replacement is performed and solid matters such as dust are filtered by the filter body 12 to prevent the stored water from spoiling and prevent the pump 16 from locking.

The drainage of the water storage tank 14 is always the crushing mechanism 8.
Since the water is guided to the drainage pipe 20 via the drainage pipe, it is not necessary to provide another drainage pipe in the water storage tank 14, and in the existing kitchen drainage pipe system, the kitchen 4 is provided with the kitchen 4 between the opening 4 of the sink 2 and the existing drainage pipe 20. Construction work can be done easily by simply installing the processing equipment.

Further, by detachably attaching the tubular body 10 above the crushing mechanism 8, even if a spoon or the like is accidentally dropped, it can be easily taken out by removing the tubular body 10, and the inside can be easily inspected and cleaned. You can do it.

In addition, at the time of normal dust throwing, if the tubular body 10 is attached, the dust throwing port 10A can be opened rather than the opening 9A.
Since it is small, it is possible to prevent accidental insertion of a hand and injury at the crushing section 8.

Further, if a lid or a plug that covers the input port 10A is attached, problems such as careless insertion of a hand through the input port 4 and damage to the crushing mechanism portion 8 and garbage and noise during crushing will occur. You can prevent it from leaking.

When a large amount of water is drained from the sink 2 in a short time or the water tank 14 is filled with water, the inlet 1
It is also possible to open the OA and flush the crushing mechanism 8 while draining.

When water does not flow from the water storage tank 14 during the crushing, the rotation sound of the crushing mechanism 8 and the idle running sound of the pump 16 resonate at the inlet 10A or the empty water storage tank 14. Since the sound can be heard from the drainage port 10B in an appropriate size, it is possible to obtain the effect of alerting the user to the injection of water.

In the embodiment, the crushing mechanism 8 and the pump 16 are both driven by the electric motor 6 so that the crushing action and the water injection are interlocked with each other, so that the user does not have to open and close the faucet at the time of crushing. At the same time, the pump 16 may be driven by another electric motor, for the purpose of preventing forgetting of water injection and simplifying the device.

[0020]

Industrial Applicability According to the present invention, the garbage can be crushed and discharged smoothly, the water for tap water can be remarkably saved, the usability is improved, and a practical garbage treatment device can be obtained.
