[0002] Food waste, also known as kitchen waste, refers to the food scraps generated in daily life, food processing, catering services, and meals provided by businesses, companies, or schools. It mainly includes rotten vegetable leaves, leftover food, fruit peels, eggshells, and bones. This waste contains extremely high levels of moisture and organic matter, making it prone to rotting and producing foul odors.
[0003] With the acceleration of urbanization, the amount of food waste generated is increasing rapidly. However, my country's food waste treatment capacity is far from meeting the current and future growth needs, and the hidden dangers of food waste are gradually intensifying, becoming an increasingly important concern.

[0029] Example 1, combined with Figure 1 Explanation:
[0030] A centrifugal dryer for treating kitchen waste includes: supporting feet 1, a drying drum 2, and an upper frame 4. Multiple supporting feet 1 are provided below the drying drum 2 for support and fixation. The upper frame 4 is installed above the drying drum 2. A drain outlet is provided on the bottom surface of the drying drum 2. The dryer also includes: a drying mechanism 3, a control mechanism 5, a power structure 6, and a cleaning mechanism 7. Multiple drying mechanisms 3 are installed inside the drying drum 2. The control mechanism 5 is installed at the upper end of each drying mechanism 3 and is mounted on the upper frame 4. The power structure 6 for driving the control mechanism 5 is installed on the upper frame 4. The cleaning mechanism 7 is installed on the inner wall of the drying drum 2 and is connected to the drying drum 2, the upper frame 4, and the drying mechanism 3.
[0031] Example 2, combined with Figures 2-5 Explanation:
[0032] Based on Embodiment 1, the drying mechanism 3 includes: a connecting pipe 301, an upper connecting plate 302, an upper connecting piece 303, a container mesh bag 304, a lower connecting plate 305, a lower connecting piece 306, and a driving structure 307. The connecting pipe 301 is connected to the control mechanism 5. The upper connecting plate 302 and the lower connecting plate 305 are respectively installed at the edges of both ends of the connecting pipe 301. The connecting pipe 301 is coaxially arranged with the upper connecting plate 302 and the lower connecting plate 305. A container mesh bag 304 for holding kitchen waste is installed between the upper connecting plate 302 and the lower connecting plate 305 through the upper connecting piece 303 and the lower connecting piece 306. An adding port is provided on the upper connecting plate 302 opposite to the container mesh bag 304. The adding port is provided with a chamfer for easy addition. The diameter of the inlet is smaller than the inner diameter of the mesh bag 304. A drive structure 307 for providing power is installed at the lower end of the connecting pipe 301. The drive structure 307 is installed on the drying drum 2. The mesh bag 304 includes: an upper fixing plate 30401, an mounting ring 30402, a mesh bag body 30403, a lower fixing plate 30404, and a lower fixing piece 30405. Multiple upper fixing pieces 30401 for fixing are installed on the mounting ring 30402. The upper fixing pieces 30401 are installed on the upper connecting plate 302. The mesh bag body 30403 for holding kitchen waste is installed on the mounting ring 30402. The mesh bag body 30403 is made of a soft material such as cloth or yarn, which facilitates collection after drying and reduces weight. A lower fixing plate 30404 is installed below the mesh bag body 30403. The lower fixing plate 30404 ensures that the shape of the mesh bag body 30403 changes little when rotating. The lower fixing plate 30404 is mounted on the lower connecting plate 306 via a lower fixing piece 30405. The upper connecting plate 303 is provided with a fixing shaft that is thinner in the middle and thicker at both ends. The upper fixing piece 30401 is provided with a hole that is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top. The upper fixing piece 30401 is mounted on the middle position of the fixing shaft on the upper connecting plate 303 through the hole. The hole is designed to be wider at the bottom and narrower at the top for easy installation and to prevent the upper fixing piece 30401 from falling off during rotation. The drive structure 307 includes: a motor A30701, a drive disk 30702, and a support rod 30703. The motor A30701 is mounted on the drying drum 2. The output end of the motor A30701 is equipped with a drive disk 30702 for driving the connecting pipe 301. The drive disk 30702 is coaxially mounted with a support rod 30703 for supporting the connecting pipe 301. The connecting pipe 301 is fitted onto the support rod 30703. The support rod 30703 can improve the stability of the rotation of the connecting pipe 301. The drive disk 30702 is provided with multiple protrusions for fixing the connecting pipe 301. The connecting pipe 301 is provided with a slot that cooperates with the protrusions. The protrusions and slots cooperate to lock the connecting pipe 301. Both the slots and protrusions are chamfered. The chamfering of the slots and protrusions can accurately return to the locked position when there is axial rotational displacement.
[0033] Example 3, combined with Figure 6 and Figure 7 Explanation:
[0034] The control mechanism 5 includes a bevel gear A501 and a drive rod 502. The bevel gear A501 is coaxially mounted on the drive rod 502. One end of the drive rod 502 near the bevel gear A501 is a smooth rod, and the other end away from the bevel gear A501 is a threaded rod. The smooth rod portion is movably mounted on the upper frame 4 via bearings, and the threaded rod portion is threaded onto the connecting pipe 301. The drive rod 502 is coaxially mounted with the connecting pipe 301, and the drive rod 502 does not contact the support rod 30703. The fact that the drive rod 502 does not contact the support rod 30703 can prevent the rotation of the drive rod 502 and the support rod 30703 from interfering with each other. The power structure 6 includes a motor B601 and a bevel gear B602. The motor B601 is slidably mounted on the upper frame 4, which can flexibly realize the meshing and disengagement of the bevel gear B602 and the bevel gear A501, while avoiding mutual influence between the motor B601 and the motor A30701. The output end of the motor B601 is equipped with a bevel gear B602 for driving the bevel gear A501.
[0035] Example 4, combined with Figure 8 Explanation:
[0036] The cleaning mechanism 7 includes: a cleaning ring 701, an upper connecting belt 702, an upper fixed wheel 703, a lower connecting belt 704, and a lower fixed wheel 705. The outer wall of the cleaning ring 701 is in contact with the inner wall of the drying drum 2. The edge of the cleaning ring 701 is relatively sharp. The cleaning ring 701 is made of a material with good wear resistance. The two ends of the upper connecting belt 702 are respectively installed on the cleaning ring 701 and the upper connecting plate 302. The upper connecting belt 702 is fitted onto the upper fixed wheel 703. The upper fixed wheel 703 is installed on the lower end face of the upper frame 4. The two ends of the lower connecting belt 704 are respectively installed on the cleaning ring 701 and the upper connecting plate 302. The lower connecting belt 704 is fitted onto the lower fixed wheel 705. The lower fixed wheel 705 is installed on the bottom surface of the drying drum 2.
