For details, please refer to the patent for a meal collection cart with meal residue classification function (Announcement No. CN206576542U) and the patent for a functional partitioned meal collection cart (Announcement No. CN204427160U).

[0003] However, although the existing meal collection vehicles can realize functional zoning to facilitate subsequent classified collection, they still have the defects of poor convenience during docking operations and time-consuming and labor-intensive operations. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional meal collection vehicle, which can not only better classify and collect meals, but also save time and effort for personnel operation.

[0005] The present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A multifunctional dining cart, comprising a trough-box dining cart body, wherein the dining cart body is divided into a first tableware storage area, a second tableware storage area and a kitchen waste storage area by a longitudinal partition, and the first tableware storage area and the second tableware storage area are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the kitchen waste storage area, so that the first tableware storage area and the second tableware storage area can both be convenient for dumping kitchen waste and placing dining plates, and the kitchen waste storage area is divided into a residue-liquid separation area located at an upper layer and a dry collection area located at a lower layer by a horizontal partition;

[0007] At this point, through different partitions, orderly classification can be achieved when collecting meals. Kitchen waste can be directly inverted in the residue-liquid separation area, dry waste can be placed in the dry collection area, and dinner plates can be placed alternately in the tableware storage area 1 and the tableware storage area 2;

[0008] The slag-liquid separation area includes a group of storage chambers with expanded top ends and a group of filtrate storage grooves located below the storage chambers. The bottom of the storage chamber is provided with a filter hole area located above the filtrate storage grooves. The two ends of the bottom of the filter hole area are installed on the longitudinal partitions on both sides through a rotating shaft, so that the storage chamber can rotate around the rotating shaft for dumping operations. The slag-liquid separation area also includes two groups of lifting and sealing doors located on both sides of the rotating shaft. The lifting and sealing doors are driven by the lifting drive mechanism to rise and fall along the longitudinal direction of the dining car body, and when they rise to abut against the side walls of the storage chamber, they are used to assist the rotating shaft in supporting and limiting the storage chamber.

[0009] At this point, when the storage chamber is full of kitchen waste and the kitchen waste in the storage chamber needs to be dumped out, it is only necessary to control the lifting drive mechanism on one side to start, so that the lifting and sealing door on one side descends and opens, and then the storage chamber is tilted and rotated toward that side, so that the garbage in the storage chamber can be discharged.
