Moist garbage or sticky garbage to which garbage juice or sticky substances adhere is generated. PET containers made of Styrofoam or polyethylene terephthalate for dry waste,
There is recyclable waste such as bottles and cans.

[0003] In recent years, it has been recommended and obligatory to separate these and process them according to handling types or to reuse them. To cope with this, the required number of refuse storage containers for storing refuse is increasing.

[0004] The plurality of refuse storage containers are often placed around the workbench of the kitchen, but the kitchen space that tends to become narrower and smaller tends to become more and more obstructive.

[0005] In addition, each type of garbage emits a unique smell. Garbage has a strong off-flavor and leaks to the outside even if the container that holds it is covered. Dried garbage emits an off-flavor similar to garbage when garbage and its juices are attached, but the odor is reduced if there is no garbage or if the garbage is washed. Even if the odor is light, if it is stored in a large amount or for a long time, the odor leaks even if it is covered. In addition, each time the lid is opened, the respective odor emanates strongly.

Therefore, the present applicant has incorporated a plurality of refuse storage containers into a work table of a kitchen such as a sink so that an input port is opened on the upper surface of a worktop, so that the kitchen becomes narrow or a plurality of refuse storage containers are placed around the worktop. Separately store various types of garbage generated around the work table in the kitchen without disturbing them, propose what can be handled and treated separately, and suction and exhaust the odor in each garbage container. This is intended to prevent the leakage into the kitchen (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-1).

As shown in FIG. 6, the refuse storage container 2 is provided with a drain pipe port 52, and the disposable refuse bag 26 can be attached and detached. Garbage storage container 2,
As shown in FIGS. 4, 6, and 8, an exhaust means 27 for sucking and exhausting the internal air by a suction fan 27a is connected to 3, and constitutes a basic storage system A according to the present invention. An exhaust passage pipe 35 of the exhaust means 27 is connected in parallel to the refuse storage containers 2 and 3 so as to suck and exhaust the odor in the refuse storage containers 2 and 3 in parallel.

According to the above construction, the garbage is stored in the garbage storage containers 2 and 3, for example, the above-mentioned garbage G1 and juice or sticky substance of the garbage, a tray, a milk pack, a tube container of mayonnaise or ketchup, or the like. Two kinds of sticky garbage G2, or garbage G1 and bottles and cans,
Dry garbage G3 called PET bottles can be separated and accommodated and handled individually. However, as described above, in the refuse storage containers 2 and 3 provided with the opening opening on the worktop 5a of the sink 1 where a large work surface is desired, it is difficult to take a large capacity, and the dry trash G3
However, while there is a demand to separate bottles and PET bottles into a plurality of types such as bottles G31 and cans G32, it is difficult to provide a large number of refuse storage containers in accordance with the number of these types of refuse. Therefore, there is a limit in separating and storing garbage.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, in particular, another refuse storage container 31 is additionally provided on the sink 1 provided so that the refuse storage containers 2 and 3 are opened to the work top 5a on the upper surface. In addition, the waste storage container 31 is provided under the water tank 6 in the cabinet in which the sink 1 is formed below the worktop plate 5 by separately storing various kinds of waste and handling the waste individually. In addition, it is installed on the front side of the drainage structure 32 from the drainage port 24 provided in the storage part 9 opened to the whole surface, and while effectively utilizing the front side of the drainage structure 32 which tends to become a dead space, The garbage storage containers 2 and 3 are separated into garbage G1 and sticky garbage G2, and the dried garbage G3 is separated by the garbage storage container 31 while covering and shaping the poor drainage structure from the front. It is to be paid. Also,
As shown in FIG. 2, the garbage container 31 is provided with two disposable garbage bags 311 and 312 so as to be detachable, so that the dry garbage G3 can be removed from the bottles G31 and cans G32.
And can be stored separately.

The storage section 9 storing the refuse storage container 31 may be installed so as to be openable and closable in and out of the front surface of the cabinet in which the garbage storing container 31 is formed. The garbage can be easily opened and closed to handle the loading and storage of garbage, and to easily handle the garbage stored in the garbage storage container 31 depending on the attachment / detachment and the disposal of the garbage to a predetermined place. And

This one refuse storage container 31 corresponds to one door 8a shown by a broken line in FIG. 1 that opens and closes the front of the storage section 9 formed by the cabinet of the sink 1. As a result, the refuse storage container 31 that is stored in the storage unit 9 and that is opened, closed, and put in and out of the front of the storage unit 9 is provided with the corresponding one door 8a.
You can open and close and open and close just by opening the
By simply closing one door 8a, it can be covered and returned to the front of the cabinet with a good appearance, which is convenient for use.

However, a plurality of refuse storage containers 31 are individually opened / closed and / or detached in the storage portion 9 of the cabinet formed by the sink 1 according to a margin according to the size of the cabinet, the size of the refuse storage container 31, and the like. In this case, the same effect can be obtained if one door 8a of each refuse storage container 31 corresponds to the door 8a, and in some cases, one door 8a may be provided. Door 8
a can correspond to a plurality of refuse storage containers 31. Further, the door 8a may be a double door type door 8 that opens right and left as shown by a virtual line in FIG. In this way, there is an advantage that the space for opening one door 8 is reduced by half, and the door 8 is hardly obstructed.

In accordance with this, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 4, 6, and 8, one of the dust storage containers 2 and 3 is disposed in the exhaust passage pipe 35 of the exhaust means 27.
For example, the refuse storage container 3 having a weak odor and the other refuse storage container 31 are connected in series via the additional exhaust passage pipe 135 at the exhaust passage pipe 35. As a result, the odors in the garbage storage containers 2, 3, 31 are sucked and exhausted by the exhaust means 27 through the exhaust passage pipes 35, 135, so that the odors accumulate in the garbage storage containers 2, 3, 31 and diffuse to the outside. Even if the refuse storage containers 2, 3, and 31 are opened due to the introduction of refuse, the outside air is sucked through the opening as indicated by the arrow in FIG. There is no divergence to the outside. An exhaust port 35 h of the exhaust passage pipe 35 is connected to a downstream side of the trap 34 of the drainage structure 32, and exhausts air from that portion to the drainage pipe 136. Thereby, the odor sucked and exhausted from each of the garbage storage containers 2, 3, 31 does not flow back to the kitchen through the drainage structure 32. In the refuse storage containers 3 and 31 connected in series, the side of the refuse storage container 31 is on the upstream side. As a result, the odor in the garbage storage container 31 having a weak odor is discharged through the garbage storage container 3 having a strong odor, and conversely, the odor of the garbage storage container 3 having a strong odor is exhausted through the garbage storage container 31 having a weak odor. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent a strong odor from entering and affecting the garbage storage container 31 having a low odor.

Further, since the exhaust passage pipe 35 of the exhaust means 27 for sucking and exhausting odors from the plurality of refuse storage containers 2, 3, 31 is a flexible pipe, the plurality of refuse storage containers can be formed by free bending. No matter how the containers 2, 3, 31 are arranged in the cabinets of various kitchen furniture such as the sink 1, they can be conveniently connected in any required order.

The garbage container 2 for storing the garbage G1 having the strongest odor is sucked and evacuated independently by the parallel relationship with the garbage container 3, so that the other garbage containers 3 and 31 may be affected. There is no. However, it is also possible to connect each of the refuse storage containers 2, 3, and 31 in series and to sequentially exhaust the odor of the refuse storage container on the upstream side through the refuse storage container on the downstream side. In this case, it is preferable to suck and exhaust the refuse storage containers 31, 3, and 2 in order from the relationship of the intensity of the odor.

Further, the suction and exhaust do not need to be performed at all times, and when any of the refuse storage containers 2, 3, 31 is opened, it is kept for a predetermined time after closing and at a predetermined interval. It may be performed periodically, and for that purpose, the driving of the suction fan 27a of the exhaust unit 27 may be automatically controlled using a control unit such as a microcomputer. While the suction fan 27a is stopped, the waste storage containers 2, 3,
In order to prevent the odor of the exhaust gas 31 from leaking out through the exhaust passage pipes 35 and 135, electromagnetic valves 137 and 138 are provided at appropriate positions in the exhaust passage pipe 35, and are opened simultaneously with the driving of the suction fan 27a. Is automatically controlled to close at the same time as the drive stops. As shown in FIG. 8, a sewage backflow prevention tank for preventing sewage from flowing back from the drain pipe 136 to the exhaust passage pipe 35 to a portion of the exhaust passage pipe 35 between the solenoid valve 138 and the exhaust port 35h. 139 are provided.

A refuse storage container 3 for the basic storage system A
In the present embodiment, in order to easily perform the addition and connection of the fuel cell 1, the upstream passage as shown in FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 6 is provided in the exhaust passage pipe 35. A passage-side connection port 35c in which the passage 35a and the downstream passage 35b are adjacently opened, and the passage-side connection port 3 is mounted so as to be detachably attached to the passage-side connection port 35c by screwing with a screw portion 35d.
A cap 33 as a closing means indicated by an imaginary line in FIG. 5B that closes the connection port 35c so that the upstream passage 35a and the downstream passage 35b that open to 5c are continuous with each other. Upstream passage 35a and downstream passage 35b
And a pair of container-side connection ports 31a and 31b which are connected to the other refuse storage container 31 having a distance from each other, and the pair of container-side connection ports 31a and 31b which are individually connected to each other. The individual container side connection ports 31a and 31b are individually connected to the downstream side passage 35b and the upstream side path 35a which are connected to the ports 36a and 36b and the passage side connection port 35c in the middle of the exhaust passage pipe 35 and open there. It is provided with a connection tool 36 having a pair of passage connection ports 36c to communicate with each other. Similarly, the cap 33 may have any other structure as long as it functions to close the passage-side connection port 35c.

As shown in FIG. 5 (a), the connection tool 36 is set in such a state that the flange 36d is pressed against the connection port 35c by a nut 37 screwed into the screw portion 35d of the passage side connection port 35c. Passage side connection port 35 of passage connection port 36c
The connection state with c is maintained, and this connection state is released by removing the nut 37.

In the case of using the basic storage system A alone without adding another waste storage container 31, the passage-side connection port 35c is closed by the cap 33 as shown by a virtual line in FIG. The upstream passage 35a and the downstream passage 35
b is continuous.

As a result, the waste storage containers 2 and 3 are placed in a state of being used for separating and storing waste accompanied by exhaustion of odor. On the other hand, the cap 33 is removed, and the container-side connection ports 31a and 31b of the separately prepared
7 and the additional exhaust passage pipe 135, the passage-side connection port 35
By connecting to garbage c, it is possible to use the garbage storage containers 2 and 3 provided in the basic storage system A and the garbage storage container 31 to separate and store garbage with odor exhaust. Switching between these two use modes can be easily and inexpensively adapted to the individual needs of the user without particularly complicating the structure or increasing the cost. Can be expanded. Moreover,
If a plurality of connection ports 35c are provided in the exhaust passage pipe 35,
The other refuse storage containers 31 can be added and used at the same time as the number of the passage-side connection ports 35c.

In the present embodiment, the garbage storage container 31 is provided in the storage portion 9 of the sink 1 by using a container storage portion shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 8, 9, 9, 11, and 12. 12 is provided so as to be openable and closable in a dedicated holding case 41 as shown in FIG. 12, and container-side connection ports 31a and 31b are provided in the holding case 41 to communicate with the refuse storage container 31 stored in the holding case 41. In order to hold the refuse storage container 31 in the holding case 41 and to set it in front of the drainage structure 32 below the water tank 6, the rear end of the upper end of the holding case 41 is shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 11, a relief portion 41b for the drain port 24 is provided, and the holding case 41 and the garbage storage container 31 can be moved to a deep position immediately adjacent to the drain structure 32 without the influence of the drain port 24 protruding below the water tank 6. To be located And, the volume of the waste container 31 for accommodating the housing part 9 are to be able to as large as possible. However, when the garbage storage container 31 is provided with a lid instead of the holding case 41, if the lid is provided with the container side connection ports 31a and 31b, the holding case 4
The same handling advantage as that of using No. 1 is obtained and preferred.

However, the storage section 9 itself can be used as a container storage section. However, having the dedicated holding case 41 has an advantage that it is easy to adopt the odor suction / exhaust structure and various structures for opening / closing and attaching / detaching. When the garbage storage container 31 is used alone, the holding case 41 has By adopting a workbench structure as kitchen furniture and installing it so that it can also be used as a workbench, it may become unsightly or obstructive as if it were installed alone as the garbage storage container 31 Can be avoided.

The holding case 41 is shown in FIGS.
As shown in the figure, the refuse storage container 31 is guided by guide rails 42 provided on the inner surfaces on both sides to be taken in and out of the opening 41a on the front surface of the holding case 41. In order to take this in and out, a roller 43, which is a guided portion that is received from below and is cantilevered at the rear side, so as to be able to move back and forth on the guide rail 42, is provided at the rear side of the upper left and right sides of the garbage storage container 31. On the other hand, a stopper 42a is provided at the front end of the guide rail 42 to receive the roller 43 moving from the rear side, leaving a space S for inserting and removing the roller 43 between the upper edge of the opening 41a. is there.

As a result, the refuse storage container 31 has a tendency to lean forward because the support is in a cantilevered state in which the rear roller 43 is received from below by the guide rails. In a range in which the holding case 41 is deeply fitted as shown by a solid line in FIG. 1, the storage case can be stored in the holding case 41 while being kept upright by being guided by the bottom of the holding case 41. When the refuse storage container 31 is pulled out from the holding case 41, the bottom of the refuse storage container 31 becomes
As the dust container 31 protrudes from the bottom of the container 1, the dust container 31 is inclined forward with the contact point of the roller 43 on the guide rail 42 as a fulcrum, and the upper end of the dust container 31 is in a quasi-tilt down state. Since the forward movement of the upper end due to the forward inclination is synergistic with the amount of withdrawal of the container 31, the upper end of the garbage storage container 31 is moved from the upper edge of the front opening 41a of the holding case 41 with a small amount of withdrawal to phantom lines in FIGS. The garbage container 31 can be easily and quickly opened by greatly extending as shown in FIG. In addition, since this open state is due to the upper end of the garbage storage container 31 projecting to the front of the holding case 41, the upper part of the storage section 9 in which the holding case 41 is installed becomes a work table like the sink 1 or the holding case. Even if the storage unit 9 in which the storage unit 41 is installed is a lower part of a cabinet extending upward, trash can be easily thrown in without interfering with each other. It is suitable for installing a garbage storage container or for installing a plurality of garbage storage containers, and also suitable for using the holding case 41 as an independent work bench as described above.

Further, the opened dust storage container 31 as shown by the phantom line in FIGS.
Is locked by the stopper portion 42a at the front end of the guide rail 42 to prevent further protrusion and stabilize, so that it can sufficiently withstand the loading and storage of heavy bottles as the dry garbage G32. The garbage storage container 31 is provided with the stopper 4.
Regardless of the locking by 2a, by pulling up the refuse storage container 31 in the forward inclined open state,
The garbage storage container 31 can be easily pulled out of the holding case 41 while the roller 43 is being removed from the stopper 42a through the access space S provided between the stopper 42a and the upper edge of the opening 41a at the front of the holding case 41,
