The first embodiment of the present invention will be described together with its function and effect with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a garbage disposal apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the garbage disposal apparatus, and FIGS. 3 (a) and 3 (b) are stockers of the garbage disposal apparatus. FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional view of the main part of the stocker.

  In FIGS. 1 to 4, reference numeral 20 denotes a main body, and 21 denotes a bottomed microbial decomposition treatment section provided in the main body 20, which is composed of a treatment tank 22 and a stirring means 23. The stirring means 23 includes a rotary stirring bar 24 and a drive device 25. The rotary stirring rod 24 includes a central shaft 24a and three stirring hands 24b, and is held by bearings 24c provided on both sides. An oil seal 24d is provided inside the bearing 24c, and the oil seal 24d is covered and held by an oil seal case 24e. By sandwiching the O-ring 24d between the oil seal case 24e and the treatment tank 22, water leakage from the oil seal case 24e is prevented. One end of the central shaft 24a has a D-cut shape, and is connected to the output shaft 25b at the end of the speed reducer 25a of the drive device 25. The speed reducer 25a is made of a combination of gears, and is housed in a speed reduction case 25c. A drive motor 25d is installed on the speed reduction case 25c, and its output is transmitted to the output shaft 25b to rotate the rotary stirring rod 24. Let The speed reduction case 25c is attached to the reinforcing plate 20a, and the reinforcing plate 20a is fastened to the treatment tank 22, and one end bent into an L-shape comes into contact with the bottom surface of the main body 20 to drive the drive device 25 (the speed reducer 25a and the drive). In addition to receiving the weight of the motor 25d), the bottom surface of the main body 20 receives the reaction force during stirring.

  The rotary stirring rod 24 mixes and agitates the microbial carrier 26 such as sawdust and undecomposed processed material, which is a habitat of microorganisms, and the input garbage 27, and supplies oxygen (air) to the microbial carrier 26. Reference numeral 28 denotes a heating means composed of an electric heater for keeping the temperature in the processing tank 22 properly, and is attached to the bottom surface of the processing tank 22 along a curve. Further, a standing wall 19 is formed in the treatment tank 22 so as to cover the heating means 28, and even if sewage falls from the outside on the treatment tank 22, it does not reach the heating means 28 and prevents an electric shock or the like. You can do that.

A lid 29 covers the upper opening of the treatment tank 22 and is opened and closed when dust is thrown in. The lid 29 is rotatable around a hinge 29a. Reference numeral 30 denotes an exhaust means provided on the upper rear surface of the treatment tank 22 and includes a ventilation fan 31, an exhaust port 32, and an exhaust duct 30a. The ventilation fan 31 is disposed at the lower end of the exhaust duct 30a and is disposed with an inclination angle of 15 °. The exhaust duct 30a is connected to the exhaust lattice 20b on the bottom surface of the main body 20, and the exhaust is discharged to the outside from the exhaust lattice 20b. Reference numeral 33 denotes a discharge port through which the residue after the decomposition treatment overflows, and is provided at two places on the left and right sides of the treatment tank 22. The overflowed residue is accumulated in the stocker 35 in which the inflow port 34 is formed.

  The stocker 35 is detachably attached to the front surface of the main body 20 so as to face the discharge port 33, and is composed of a transparent lid member 36 and an opaque box member 37 as shown in FIG. The cover member 36 is configured to slide in the longitudinal direction by the guide walls 38 and 18. A stopper 39 is formed on the guide wall 38, and the lid member 36 slides about 100 mm and temporarily stops when it comes into contact with a stopper portion 37 b provided on the side surface of the box member 37. Furthermore, the stopper part 37b can be ridden by pushing forcefully, and the lid member 36 and the box member 37 can be separated and cleaned separately.

  As shown in FIG. 3, a tongue-shaped protrusion 36a is formed at the lower end of the lid member 36 of the stocker 35. The tongue-shaped protrusion 36a is fitted into a frame-shaped hook portion 37a provided on the box member 37. Thus, the lower end of the lid member 36 is prevented from being deformed and the joint portion between the lid member 36 and the box member 37 is prevented from spreading. That is, the tongue-shaped protrusion 36 a and the hooking portion 37 a constitute a locking mechanism that prevents the joint portion between the lid member 36 and the box member 37 from opening. Therefore, even if the residue accumulates in the stocker 35, it does not spill down. On the other hand, the lower end of the lid member 36 is only face-to-face coupled to the lower end of the box member 37 by fitting the tongue-shaped protrusion 36a to the hook portion 37a, and a gap 35a is formed between them. In the event that rainwater or the like enters the stocker 35, only water will flow from the gap 35a formed at the lower end joining portion of the lid member 36 and the box member 37. Therefore, water is not accumulated, and only the residue is accumulated in the stocker 35 without spilling.

  Further, the stocker 35 is mounted so that the shafts 45 provided on both lower sides of the box member 37 abut on the bearings 46 on the inner surface of the lower portion of the recess 20a provided on the front surface of the main body 20 so as to be rotatable and detachable. Since the lower surface between the bearings 46, that is, the portion facing the lower surface of the stocker 35 is in an open state, the water discharged from the gap 35a is dropped on the main body installation surface as it is, and the main body is contaminated. Almost disappear.

  In addition, the stocker 35 is formed in a vertically long shape, and the front and rear width and the left and right width are reduced. It is set as the structure which can ensure the residue storage capacity which can be performed. As for the accumulation state, since the lid member 36 is transparent, the accumulation amount can be easily confirmed, the discharge time can be recognized, and when the gap 35a is clogged, this can be visually confirmed. .

  Reference numeral 40 denotes a claw for locking the lid member 36 and the box member 37, and is integrally formed with the handle 41 portion of the box member 37 as shown in FIG. It can be released from the integrally formed recess 43 and can be unlocked. Since this operation can be performed with the handle 42 of the lid member 36 and the handle 41 of the box member 37 held in hand, the opening operation can be performed without touching the residue, and the hands can be kept clean.

  A shaft 45 is formed on both sides of the lower portion of the box member 37 and is fitted to the bearing 46 of the main body 20 and is detachably locked. The shaft 45 is positioned forward of the center of gravity of the stocker 35. For this reason, the stocker 35 is subjected to a force of falling toward the main body, and can be stably attached to the main body 20 even if a large amount of residue accumulates. . Further, the main body side is only the projection of the bearing 46, and if the stocker 35 is removed, there will be no waste accumulation portion, so cleaning is easy.

  In addition, an inclined portion 47 is formed at the bottom of the box member 37 so as to incline toward the gap 35a at the lower end of the lid member 36 and the box member 37, and any rainwater that has entered should be discharged from the gap 35a. When the lid member 36 is slid open, the internal residue can be discharged smoothly and the amount of dust remaining is reduced. The inclined portion 47 may be provided on the lid member 36 side.

  In each of the above embodiments, if a receptacle for preventing the fall of the treated product is formed above the gap through which only water at the lower end of the stocker passes, the fall of the treated product (residue) from the lower end of the stocker is prevented. This is preferable because the periphery of the main body does not need to be stained. Further, if the plate width of the hooking portion 37a for preventing the opening of the lower end of the stocker is thin or formed in a rib shape so that the processed material does not accumulate, the processed material to the hooking portion 37a is discharged when the processed material (residue) is discharged. It is possible to eliminate the catch and easily perform the discharging operation.

  As described above, the garbage processing apparatus according to the present invention is excellent in workability and cleaning performance of residue processing, so that it is possible to improve the usability of equipment for processing straws discharged from cafeterias in homes, restaurants and various facilities. It is extremely useful.
