Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a garbage disposal device, and particularly to a domestic garbage disposal device. Background Art

[0002] Garbage disposal is an important aspect of human civilization. Moreover, with the increase in population and the progress of human civilization, the problem of garbage disposal has become increasingly severe. Especially for developing countries such as China, the simple landfill disposal method is no longer sustainable. How to dispose of domestic garbage has become an almost imminent problem.

[0003] Urbanization has led to a high population concentration, resulting in a huge amount of domestic garbage. Taking Beijing as an example, the daily domestic garbage production reaches 18,400 tons, and the annual domestic garbage production is about 6.72 million tons. Landfill sites are everywhere in the suburbs of Beijing.

[0004] People have become increasingly concerned about this severe problem of garbage disposal. In China, various measures have been gradually taken to solve how to dispose of domestic garbage, with the goal of realizing the reduction, resource utilization, and harmlessness of garbage disposal.

[0005] Garbage classification is one of the effective means of garbage disposal. For example, domestic garbage in Beijing is divided into four categories: recyclables, kitchen waste, other garbage, and hazardous waste; domestic garbage in Shanghai is also divided into four categories: wet garbage, dry garbage, recyclable garbage, and hazardous waste.

[0006] Currently, for how to dispose of domestic garbage, there is an urgent need to find more effective means. Summary of the Invention

[0065] The drawings in this specification are schematic diagrams, which assist in explaining the concept of the present invention and schematically show the shapes of various parts and their mutual relationships. Please note that in order to clearly show the structures of the components in the embodiments of the present invention, the drawings may not be drawn in the same proportion.

[0066] Figure 1 It is a general schematic diagram of the first embodiment of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention. Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of an example of the preliminary receiving and sorting device of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention.

[0067] As Figure 1 shown, the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention includes a preliminary sorting and receiving device 1, a sorted waste channel 2, a preliminary treatment device 3, a general control console 5, a remote port 6, and an exhaust port 7. This first embodiment is applicable to multi-story buildings. A preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 is provided on each floor, and a preliminary treatment device 3 is provided at the bottom of the building. The sorted waste channel 2 connects the preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 and the preliminary treatment device 3, and conveys the received waste from the preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 to the preliminary treatment device 3. The structure of this automatic domestic waste treatment device is relatively large, the sorted waste channel 2 is relatively long, and multiple preliminary sorting and receiving devices 1 are required.

[0068] The preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 includes a receiving table 11, a camera sensing device 12, and a manipulator 13. The preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 further includes a preliminary receiving and sorting controller 16. In this embodiment, a preliminary receiving and sorting controller 16 is provided in each preliminary sorting and receiving device 1, that is, on each floor.

[0069] Then Figure 1 and 2 viewed in combination, the preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 includes a housing connected to the sorted waste channel 2 and covering the receiving table 11. The manipulator 13 is suspended on the top of the inner wall of the housing and can rotate around the axis at the bottom of the manipulator 13 connected to the top. And the manipulator 13 can expand and contract in the horizontal and vertical directions. InFigure 1 In it, the horizontal black long strip schematically represents the floor slab.

[0070] The mechanical arm 13 further includes a guide rail 1302, which is installed on the top. The bottom of the mechanical arm 13 is connected to the guide rail 1302, so that the mechanical arm can move along the guide rail 1302. The camera sensing device 12 is installed at the bottom of the mechanical arm 13, and the top end of the bottom is shown in the figure. When the camera sensing device 12 is installed at the bottom of the mechanical arm 13, the camera sensing device 12 can also move with the mechanical arm 13, which is more convenient for taking pictures.

[0071] The gripper 1301 of the mechanical arm 13 is used to grasp the garbage, so as to complete the movement and classification of the garbage.

[0072] The arm of the mechanical arm 13 includes a cylindrical telescopic part that can be telescopically extended horizontally and a cylindrical telescopic part that can be telescopically extended vertically and are connected to each other. The cylindrical telescopic part that can be telescopically extended horizontally is connected to the bottom of the mechanical arm, and the cylindrical telescopic part that can be telescopically extended vertically is connected to the gripper 1301 of the mechanical arm.

[0073] The mechanical arm 13 of this embodiment is a specially designed structure according to the invention purpose, which can realize the grasping and moving of garbage, and has a simple and compact structure and is suitable for being installed in a housing that is connected to the classified garbage channel 2 and covers the receiving table 11.

[0074] See again Figures 5 - 8 , Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the state when the gripper of the mechanical arm of the automatic domestic garbage treatment device of the present invention is closed, Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of an intermediate state when the gripper of the mechanical arm of the automatic domestic garbage treatment device of the present invention is opened, Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of the state when the gripper of the mechanical arm of the automatic domestic garbage treatment device of the present invention is opened to the fully retracted state, and Figure 8 is Figure 7 a side schematic diagram of the state shown.

[0075] The mechanical arm includes a cleaning piece 1303, which is a scraping piece with certain elasticity and hardness and is also installed at the end of the arm of the mechanical arm 13. The gripper 1301 of the mechanical arm 13 can retract relative to the end of the arm, which is convenient for the cleaning piece 1303 to clean the receiving table 11.

[0076] When the housing is closed, the camera sensing device 12 can be designed to be equipped with a lighting device to illuminate the inside of the housing for taking pictures.

[0077] The preliminary classification receiving device further includes a protection piece 17, which is arranged between the mechanical arm 13 and the classified garbage channel 2 to protect the mechanical arm 13 from being hit by the garbage falling in the classified garbage channel.

[0078] The protective sheet 17 is installed at the interface between the preliminary classification receiving device 1 and the classified waste channel 2, and can be automatically opened to open or close the interface.

[0079] The housing includes a waste inlet 15 for receiving waste and a closing door 18. When the closing door 18 opens the waste inlet 15, the receiving table 11 receives waste, and when it closes, it seals the housing.

[0080] The protective sheet 17 and the closing door 18 can form a double seal for the odor generated by the waste.

[0081] In this embodiment, an exhaust port 7 is also provided, which is located at the upper part of the classified waste channel 2 and leads the gas generated by the waste to the exhaust duct of the building.

[0082] In this embodiment, the preliminary classification receiving device 1 can be designed to have a ramp chute 19. The receiving table 11 and the classified waste channel are connected by the ramp chute 19, so as to reduce the moving distance and time of the machine and facilitate the acceleration of the movement of the waste.

[0083] Of course, since the manipulator 13 and the camera sensing device 12 are both widely used devices in industrial production, therefore, the present invention can also select appropriate existing technical devices according to needs to complete determining the object category by using the camera and moving the object by using the manipulator 13.

[0084] Those skilled in the art can fully realize the functions required by the preliminary classification receiving device 1 by using the manipulator 13 and the camera sensing device 12, and the cost can be made not high. In addition, if the device of the present invention is mass-produced, the cost can be even lower.

[0085] Those skilled in the art understand that the classified waste can be directly moved by the manipulator 13 to the corresponding classified waste channel 2, or a conveying device can be provided in the preliminary classification receiving device 1. The manipulator 13 moves the waste from the receiving table 11 to the conveying device, and then the conveying device conveys it to the classified waste channel 2 respectively. The conveying device can be a conveyor belt. The conveying device can also be a conveying structure that can convey classified waste according to the needs of different conveying directions, such as a conveying device composed of many small conveying mechanisms that can perform multi-directional transmission, and conveys the classified waste to the corresponding classified waste channel 2 according to different directions.

[0086] In the concept of the present invention, for the purpose of achieving convenient and effective automatic garbage processing, under the control of a chip control device, a manipulator and a camera sensing device classify garbage into wet garbage and non-fermentable garbage other than the wet garbage. The wet garbage includes fluids, kitchen organic waste, and bonsai plant branches; and the manipulator and the camera sensing device further classify the non-fermentable garbage. The non-fermentable garbage can specifically be classified into, for example, recyclable garbage, non-recyclable garbage, and hazardous garbage. Of course, other classifications can also be carried out, including the names and quantities of the classifications, which are pre-determined by the chip control device and can also be modified on-site or remotely after determination; the classified garbage corresponds to different classified garbage channels 2. The wet garbage is crushed in the preliminary treatment device 3 and then fermented in the fermentation tank 32 and discharged into the sewer. In addition, the preliminary treatment device 3 compacts and blocks or even packs the non-fermentable garbage. The equipment of the present invention is designed according to such a concept, thus obtaining a device for convenient and effective automatic garbage processing, which can quickly process domestic garbage in a fully automatic manner, reduce the workload of garbage processing, and save the time of residents in processing garbage.

[0087] In the present invention, the recyclable garbage mentioned in the previous examples includes waste paper, plastics, glass, metals, fabrics, and foam products, etc.; the non-recyclable garbage includes ash, cigarette butts, paper towels, toilet paper, sanitary napkins, diapers, large bones, and ceramics and fragments, etc.; the hazardous garbage includes batteries, fluorescent tubes, medicines, photos, medical waste, and paint containers, etc.

[0088] The classified garbage channel 2 includes multiple garbage channels, and each of the multiple garbage channels receives one type of the classified garbage and transports the received garbage to the preliminary treatment device 3.

[0089] The preliminary treatment device 3 includes an automatic crushing device 31, a fermentation tank 32, and an automatic compression device 33.

[0090] The automatic crushing device 31 crushes the wet garbage and then allows the crushed wet garbage to enter the fermentation tank 32. The fermentation tank 32 is connected to the sewer, and after the crushed wet garbage is fermented, the wet garbage is discharged into the sewer. Of course, in the present invention, it can be designed that the automatic crushing device 31 in the preliminary treatment device 3 only crushes the wet garbage, or it can also be designed to crush other types of garbage that need to be crushed. The automatic crushing device 31 can be one or two or more. The garbage crushing device can select the equipment of the existing technology, which is a mature equipment.

[0091] The automatic compression device 33 compacts or blocks the non-fermentable garbage received by several classified garbage channels 2 respectively, which is convenient for storage and transportation.

[0092] As an alternative design, the automatic compressing device 33 may include a packing device for packing the compacted or block-shaped garbage.

[0093] In the present invention, it can be designed such that the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 can be stored in a garbage bin and then transported away; or it can also be designed such that the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 is simply temporarily stacked, and then the garbage truck transports the temporarily stacked garbage away. Obviously, how the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 is stored and transported can be specifically designed according to needs, which can be achieved by those skilled in the art without creative labor.

[0094] As an alternative design, the present invention can be designed such that one of the multiple garbage channels is a garbage channel dedicated to receiving and transporting waste paper garbage. That is to say, in the garbage classification of this embodiment, an additional category is added, namely waste paper garbage. This category is separated from the waste paper garbage included in the recyclable garbage category. Waste paper garbage includes cardboard, books and periodicals, milk and beverage packaging boxes, medicine boxes, and paper cups, etc. Correspondingly, the mechanical arm 13 and the camera sensing device 12 classify waste paper garbage as a separate category and classify it into the garbage channel dedicated to receiving and transporting waste paper garbage.

[0095] In addition, as an alternative design, one of the multiple garbage channels can be a garbage channel dedicated to receiving and transporting special-shaped garbage. The mechanical arm 13 and the camera sensing device 12 classify special-shaped garbage into the garbage channel dedicated to receiving and transporting special-shaped garbage. Special-shaped garbage includes wood and large-sized structural members. This alternative design takes into account that there may be wood of a certain size and large-sized structural members in domestic garbage. For example, steel bars or large-sized plastic structural members. Although generally the amount of such garbage is small and generally handled separately by people, sometimes specifically designing such a special-shaped garbage channel is also beneficial for quickly handling garbage. Of course, the present invention can also be designed to require that garbage such as large-sized members be handled separately by people in other manual ways.

[0096] In the present invention, the preliminary treatment device 3 can also be provided with other treatment measures according to needs, such as gasification, liquefaction, etc. Correspondingly, the preliminary treatment device 3 can include, for example, a gasification device for gasifying specific classified garbage, and can include a liquefaction device for liquefying specific classified garbage.

[0097] Figure 3 Schematic structural diagram of the automatic pulverizing device and the fermentation tank example of the automatic domestic garbage treatment device of the present invention.

[0098] Figure 4 Schematic structural diagram of the automatic compressing device and the garbage container example of the automatic domestic garbage treatment device of the present invention.

[0099] The preliminary treatment device 3 includes an automatic crushing device 31, a fermentation tank 32, and an automatic compression device 33.

[0100] As Figure 3 shown, the automatic crushing device 31 crushes the wet garbage, and then allows the crushed wet garbage to enter the fermentation tank 32.

[0101] In this embodiment, the fermentation tank 32 is funnel-shaped and can be designed to have a fermentation monitoring device 3201, an automatic water injection device 3202, an automatic flushing device 3203, and an automatic discharge device 3204. A valve can be used to control between the fermentation tank 32 and the sewer pipe. The fermentation monitoring device 3201 automatically monitors the fermentation degree of the garbage residue in the fermentation tank 32, and the automatic discharge device 3204 determines whether to open the valve to discharge the fermented garbage residue into the sewer according to the monitoring situation of the fermentation monitoring device 3201. The automatic water injection device 3202 automatically injects water into the fermentation tank 32 according to the needs of fermentation. Generally, when fermenting the crushed wet garbage, some water may need to be added, and some fermentation reagents may also need to be added to help ferment quickly and effectively. The automatic flushing device 3203 automatically flushes and cleans the fermentation tank 32 and assists in discharging the fermented garbage residue according to the usage situation of the fermentation tank 32.

[0102] The funnel bottom of the fermentation tank 32 is connected to the sewer, and the wet garbage is discharged into the sewer after the crushed wet garbage is fermented. Of course, in the present invention, not only can the automatic crushing device 31 in the preliminary treatment device 3 be designed to only crush wet garbage, but also it can be designed to crush other types of garbage that need to be crushed. The automatic crushing device 31 can be one or two or more. The garbage crushing device can select the equipment of the existing technology, which is a mature equipment.

[0103] It should also be noted that since the fermentation tank 32 is a part of the preliminary treatment device 3 in the present invention, generally, it is necessary to do a good job in sealing to prevent the smell from spreading into the air, and it is also necessary to prevent dangers caused by gases such as methane. This is an issue that those skilled in the art need to pay attention to in the specific design.

[0104] As Figure 4 shown, the automatic compression device 33 compresses or briquettes the non-fermented garbage received by several classified garbage channels 2 respectively, which is convenient for storage and transportation. In this embodiment, it can be compressed or briquetted and stored in the garbage container 34 as shown in the figure. As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the automatic compression device 33 has an upper pressure cylinder and a lower pressure cylinder, and the upper pressure cylinder and the lower pressure cylinder rotate the pressing plate and compress the garbage. The compression monitoring device 3301 monitors the quantity of the garbage in the garbage container and controls the operation of the automatic compression device 33 according to the monitoring information.

[0105] As an alternative design, the automatic compression device 33 may include a packing device for packing the compacted or block-shaped garbage.

[0106] In the present invention, it can be designed such that the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 can be stored in a trash can and then transported away; it can also be designed such that the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 is simply temporarily stacked, and then the garbage truck transports the temporarily stacked garbage away. Obviously, how the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 is stored and transported can be specifically designed according to needs, which can be achieved by those skilled in the art without creative labor.

[0107] Such as Figure 1 As shown, the automatic domestic waste treatment device further includes a remote port 6 for remotely monitoring and remotely and intelligently upgrading the automatic domestic waste treatment device, such as changes in garbage classification standards, etc. In this embodiment, the remote port 6 is provided on the main console 5 of the device. In addition, a preliminary receiving and sorting controller 16 is also provided in this embodiment. The main console 5 and the preliminary receiving and sorting controller 16 constitute a chip control device.

[0108] Through the remote port 6, the operation of the automatic domestic waste treatment device can be remotely monitored, and the aforementioned chip control device can be remotely and intelligently upgraded. The present invention can be designed to remotely monitor the operation of the automatic domestic waste treatment device and remotely and intelligently upgrade the chip control device through a central integrated system.

[0109] How the garbage is classified is commanded by the preliminary receiving and sorting controller. Before implementation, the images and classification methods of various types of garbage need to be input into the preliminary receiving and sorting controller; the camera sensor transmits the captured garbage images back to the preliminary receiving and sorting controller, and the preliminary receiving and sorting controller classifies the images received from the camera sensor and issues commands, and the manipulator grabs the garbage according to the commands sent by the preliminary receiving and sorting controller and distributes it to each channel.

[0110] Therefore, in this embodiment, the chip control device automatically controls the operation of the automatic domestic waste treatment device.

[0111] For the preliminary classification receiving device, the chip control device controls the operation of the preliminary classification receiving device. The camera sensing device transmits the captured garbage images back to the chip control device. The chip control device classifies the images received from the chip control device and issues commands, and the manipulator moves the garbage according to the commands sent by the chip control device and distributes it to each channel. Moreover, through the remote port, the main console receives the remote garbage classification and treatment methods and sends this information to each preliminary receiving and sorting controller. Thus, automatic and real-time preliminary reception and treatment of garbage can be achieved.

[0112] Figure 9It is the overall schematic diagram of the second embodiment of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention. Figure 10 It is another overall schematic diagram of the second embodiment of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention. Figure 9 In the overall schematic diagram, the preliminary treatment device shows an automatic pulverizing device and a fermentation tank, while Figure 9 In the overall schematic diagram, the preliminary treatment device shows an automatic compressing device and a waste container.

[0113] Compared with the first embodiment, the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the second embodiment is used in bungalows, beside roads, in parks, open areas, etc. It is a compact single device that only requires one preliminary receiving and sorting device 1 and one preliminary treatment device 3, and the length of the sorted waste channel 2 can be very short. Additionally, the protection sheet 17 and the exhaust port 7 can be not designed. Moreover, in this embodiment, a solar power generation device 8 can be set up, so that it is not necessary to separately wire and transmit power to this single device, thus facilitating the use of the device. Figure 9 and 10 Both schematically show that the solar power generation device 8 is set on the top of the preliminary sorting and receiving device 16.

[0114] Figure 11 It is the schematic diagram of the third embodiment of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention. As Figure 11 shown, the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention includes a preliminary sorting and receiving device 1, a sorted waste channel 2, a preliminary treatment device 3, and a chip control device. Compared with the first embodiment, the third embodiment uses a six-axis manipulator. The six-axis manipulator is a mature technology, so the solution shown in this embodiment of the present invention is easy to design.

[0115] The preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 includes a receiving table 11, a camera sensing device 12, and a manipulator 13.

[0116] The waste determined to be sorted can be directly moved by the manipulator 13 to the corresponding sorted waste channel 2, or a conveying device can be set in the preliminary sorting and receiving device 1. The manipulator 13 moves the waste from the receiving table 11 to the conveying device, and then the conveying device conveys it to the sorted waste channel 2 respectively. The conveying device can be a conveyor belt. The conveying device can also be a conveying structure that can convey sorted waste according to the needs of different conveying directions, such as a conveying device composed of many small conveying mechanisms that can perform multi-directional transmission, and conveys the sorted waste to the corresponding sorted waste channel 2 according to different directions.

[0117] The sorted waste channel 2 includes multiple waste channels, and each of the multiple waste channels respectively receives one type of waste in the sorted waste and conveys the received waste to the preliminary treatment device 3.

[0118] In this embodiment, for the purpose of facilitating and effectively automatically processing garbage, domestic garbage is first divided into two major categories: wet garbage and non-fermentable garbage. The garbage classification includes at least four categories, namely wet garbage, recyclable garbage, non-recyclable garbage, and harmful garbage. Recyclable garbage, non-recyclable garbage, and harmful garbage are collectively referred to as non-fermentable garbage. The four categories of garbage correspond to different classified garbage channels 21, 22, 23, and 24, that is, the four categories of garbage are respectively moved into the recyclable garbage channel 21, the non-recyclable garbage channel 22, the harmful garbage channel 23, and the wet garbage channel 24. The wet garbage is pulverized in the preliminary treatment device 3 and then fermented in the fermentation tank 32 and then discharged into the sewer. In addition, the preliminary treatment device 3 compacts and blocks or even packs the non-fermentable garbage.

[0119] The preliminary treatment device 3 includes an automatic pulverizing device 31, a fermentation tank 32, and an automatic compressing device 33.

[0120] The automatic pulverizing device 31 pulverizes the wet garbage, and then allows the pulverized wet garbage to enter the fermentation tank 32. The fermentation tank 32 is connected to the sewer. After the pulverized wet garbage is fermented, the wet garbage is discharged into the sewer. Of course, in the present invention, it can be designed that the automatic pulverizing device 31 in the preliminary treatment device 3 only pulverizes the wet garbage, or it can also be designed to pulverize other types of garbage that need to be pulverized. The automatic pulverizing device 31 can be one or two or more. The garbage pulverizing device can select the equipment of the existing technology, which is a mature equipment.

[0121] The automatic compressing device 33 compacts or blocks the non-fermentable garbage received by several classified garbage channels 2 respectively, which is convenient for storage and transportation. For example, it can be first compacted or blocked and stored in the garbage container 34 as shown in the figure.

[0122] As an alternative design, the automatic compressing device 33 can include a packing device for packing the compacted or block-shaped garbage.

[0123] In the present invention, it can be designed that the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 can be stored in the trash can and then transported away; it can also be designed that the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 is simply temporarily stacked, and then the garbage transport vehicle transports the temporarily stacked garbage away. Obviously, how the garbage passing through the preliminary treatment device 3 is stored and transported can be specifically designed according to needs, which can be achieved by those skilled in the art without creative labor.

[0124] As an alternative design, the present invention can be designed such that one of the multiple waste channels is a waste channel dedicated to receiving and transporting waste paper. That is to say, an additional category is added to the waste classification of the present invention, namely waste paper. This category is separated from the waste paper included in the recyclable waste category. Waste paper includes cardboard, books, milk and beverage packaging boxes, medicine boxes, and paper cups, etc. Correspondingly, the manipulator 13 and the camera sensing device 12 classify waste paper as a separate category and sort it into the waste channel dedicated to receiving and transporting waste paper.

[0125] In addition, as an alternative design, one of the multiple waste channels can be a waste channel dedicated to receiving and transporting irregularly shaped waste. The manipulator 13 and the camera sensing device 12 sort irregularly shaped waste into the waste channel dedicated to receiving and transporting irregularly shaped waste. Irregularly shaped waste includes wood and large-sized structural members. This alternative design takes into account that there may be wood of a certain size and large-sized structural members in domestic waste. For example, steel bars or large-sized structural members made of plastic. Although generally the amount of such waste is small and usually handled separately by people, sometimes specifically designing such an irregularly shaped waste channel is also beneficial for quickly handling waste. Of course, the present invention can also be designed to require that waste such as large-sized members be handled separately by people using other manual methods.

[0126] In the present invention, the preliminary treatment device 3 can also be provided with other treatment measures according to needs, such as gasification, liquefaction, etc. Correspondingly, the preliminary treatment device 3 can include, for example, a gasification device for gasifying specifically classified waste and a liquefaction device for liquefying specifically classified waste.

[0127] Figure 12 It is a schematic structural diagram of an example of the fermentation tank 32 of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention.

[0128] In the present invention, as Figure 12As shown in the figure, the fermentation tank 32 can be designed to have a fermentation monitoring device 3201, an automatic water injection device 3202, an automatic flushing device 3203, and an automatic discharge device 3204. A valve can be used to control the connection between the fermentation tank 32 and the sewer pipe. The fermentation monitoring device 3201 automatically monitors the fermentation degree of the garbage residue in the fermentation tank 32, and the automatic discharge device 3204 determines whether to open the valve to discharge the fermented garbage residue into the sewer according to the monitoring situation of the fermentation monitoring device 3201. The automatic water injection device 3202 automatically injects water into the fermentation tank 32 according to the needs of fermentation. Generally, when fermenting shredded wet garbage, some water may need to be added, and some fermentation reagents may also be needed to help ferment quickly and effectively. The automatic flushing device 3203 automatically flushes and cleans the fermentation tank 32 according to the usage situation of the fermentation tank 32 and assists in discharging the fermented garbage residue.

[0129] Please note that as Figure 12 shown in the figure, the bottom of the fermentation tank 32 is sloped and inclined towards the discharge port.

[0130] It should also be noted that since the fermentation tank 32 is a part of the preliminary treatment device 3 in the present invention, generally, it is necessary to do a good job in sealing to prevent the smell from spreading into the air and also to prevent the danger caused by gases such as methane. This is an issue that those skilled in the art need to pay attention to in the specific design.

[0131] Moreover, in the connection structure between the fermentation tank 32 and the garbage crushing device, a structure for preventing gases and odors from escaping from the fermentation tank 32 through the connection part between the fermentation tank 32 and the garbage crushing device needs to be designed. This structure for sealing and preventing gas escape can be designed using existing technologies, such as using an automatic valve or a water-sealed elbow, etc.

[0132] Figure 13 It is a schematic structural diagram of an example of the preliminary classification receiving device 1 of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention.

[0133] Since the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention is used to treat garbage, a closed housing can be designed for the preliminary classification receiving device 1 if necessary. The closed housing is used to enclose structures such as the receiving table 11 to enclose the treatment of garbage. Moreover, the closed housing has an opening. When the opening is open, it is convenient to lay the garbage on the receiving table 11, and when the opening is closed, the closed housing seals the receiving table 11.

[0134] The camera sensing device 12 and the manipulator 13 can be arranged in the closed housing or can also be arranged in the closed housing.

[0135] As an alternative design, the opening of the closed housing can be automatically opened and closed or can also be manual.

[0136] As an alternative design, the preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 may further include an automatic cleaning device for cleaning the receiving table 11, the manipulator 13, and the enclosed housing. The automatic cleaning device may be a rinsing head for rinsing these structures. The rinsed fluid may be introduced into the wet waste channel or may not necessarily be introduced into the wet waste channel specifically, and the specific design can be determined according to needs.

[0137] The automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention can be used in public areas (such as beside roads), single-story houses, buildings, etc. When installed beside a road or a single-story house, for example, the structure of the automatic domestic waste treatment device is very compact, and the sorted waste channel 2 can be very short. However, when used in a building, the structure of the automatic domestic waste treatment device is relatively large, and the sorted waste channel 2 needs to be longer. In addition, the size of the automatic domestic waste treatment device can be specifically designed according to needs. Simply put, the size can be large or small as long as the design purpose is met.

[0138] Figure 14 It is a general schematic diagram of the fourth embodiment of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention.

[0139] In this fourth embodiment, a preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 is provided on each floor, a preliminary treatment device 3 is provided at the bottom of the building, and the sorted waste channel 2 connects the preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 and the preliminary treatment device 3 to convey the received waste from the preliminary sorting and receiving device 1 to the preliminary treatment device 3. Compared with the third embodiment, the structure of the automatic domestic waste treatment device is large, the sorted waste channel 2 needs to be longer, and multiple preliminary sorting and receiving devices 1 are required.

[0140] In the present invention, when the automatic domestic waste treatment device is used in a building, at least one preliminary classification receiving device 1 can be provided on each floor or every multiple floors. For example, at least one preliminary classification receiving device 1 can be provided on each floor or every two floors. At least one preliminary treatment device 3 is provided at the bottom of the building. That is, the preliminary treatment device 3 can be one or more than one. Similar to the fourth embodiment, the classified waste channel 2 also connects the preliminary classification receiving device 1 and the preliminary treatment device 3. Generally, for the convenience of transporting waste, one preliminary classification receiving device 1 is connected to one preliminary treatment device 3 along a substantially vertical direction through one classified waste channel 2. However, a classified waste channel 2 with an angle can also be adopted as long as the waste can be transported. When the present invention is applied to a building, the number and connection mode of the preliminary classification receiving device 1, the classified waste channel 2, and the preliminary treatment device 3 can adopt diverse ways, not limited to the one-to-one connection mode in the fourth embodiment. For example, on each floor, there can also be one, two, three or more preliminary classification receiving devices 1, which can be connected to one, two or more preliminary treatment devices 3 through the same or different classified waste channels 2, as long as the waste treatment of the building satisfies the automatic classification and reception of the present invention and is then transported to the preliminary treatment device 1 through the channels respectively.

[0141] Buildings are the main residential houses in cities. The application of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention in buildings has great advantages, such as being very convenient, fast, and labor-saving in treating waste, and solving the problem of how to conveniently and quickly treat domestic waste in densely populated areas.

[0142] The present invention creates a brand-new automatic domestic waste treatment device with a new concept, basically eliminating the need for manual classification of domestic waste, and being able to effectively and quickly treat domestic waste, reducing the workload of waste treatment.

[0143] The above describes the implementation modes of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention, aiming to explain the spirit of the present invention. Please note that those skilled in the art can modify and combine the features of the above various implementation modes without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the above various implementation modes. The specific features of the automatic domestic waste treatment device of the present invention, such as shape, size, and position, can be specifically designed according to the functions of the features disclosed above, and these designs can all be achieved by those skilled in the art.
