Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of kitchen cleaning devices, and more particularly to an integrated sink device for food waste treatment. Background Technology
[0002] An integrated sink is a composite sink that combines other kitchen functions with a basic sink, offering multiple features and ease of use. Common composite functions include water purification systems and temporary cutting boards. However, wet waste generated in integrated sinks often requires manual disposal by the user, exposing them to direct contact with germs and posing health risks. Wet waste transferred from the sink accumulates in the kitchen trash can, taking up kitchen space and easily breeding bacteria, emitting foul odors and causing kitchen environmental pollution, requiring frequent cleaning by the user.

Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0039] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0040] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides an integrated kitchen waste treatment sink device, which includes a sink 1 with a drain outlet 11.
[0041] The integrated kitchen waste treatment sink device also includes a solid-liquid separation component 2, a containment and packaging component 3, and a disinfection component 4. The solid-liquid separation component 2 has an interconnected inlet 21, a drain outlet 22, and a slag discharge outlet 23. The inlet 21 is connected to the drain outlet 11, and the drain outlet 22 is connected to the sewage pipe. The solid-liquid separation component 2 is configured to separate solid waste and liquid from kitchen waste and drive the liquid to the drain outlet 22. In use, kitchen waste in the sink 1 enters the solid-liquid separation component 2 through the drain outlet 11. Through the separation action of the solid-liquid separation component 2, the kitchen waste is separated into solid waste and liquid. The liquid flows into the sewage pipe through the drain outlet 22, and the solid waste enters the containment and packaging component 3 through the slag discharge outlet 23. The containment and packaging component 3 includes an outer shell 31 and a packaging mechanism 32. The packaging mechanism 32 is disposed inside the outer shell 31 and has multiple garbage bags 100 in a rolled-up state inside the packaging mechanism 32. Multiple garbage bags 100 are connected end to end. Each garbage bag 100 has an unfolded state and a closed state. In the unfolded state, the opening of the garbage bag 100 connects to the waste discharge port 23, allowing the garbage bag 100 to receive separated solid waste. The packaging mechanism 32 is configured to close the opening of the preceding garbage bag 100 to form a closed state and to unfold the following garbage bag 100, preparing it for the next batch of solid waste. The packaging assembly 3 operates without user intervention, preventing direct contact with germs and reducing the risk of health hazards. Furthermore, the packaging assembly 3 is located below the sink 1, making full use of the space below the sink 1. Solid waste is contained within the garbage bags 100, eliminating the need for an additional garbage can in the kitchen and reducing space occupation. The disinfection assembly 4 includes a disinfection lamp 41 movably mounted within the outer casing 31. The disinfection lamp 41 is configured to send disinfection light waves towards the unfolded garbage bag 100. The disinfection light waves utilize specific wavelengths of light to achieve sterilization and disinfection, reducing bacterial growth on the surface of the garbage bag 100 to reduce odor. It also reduces the amount of volatile gases passing through the garbage bag 100, improving the cleanliness of the garbage bag 100 in both its unfolded and closed states, thus preventing contamination of the kitchen environment. The overall cleanliness of the garbage bag 100 is enhanced, making it safer and more convenient for users to handle the closed garbage bag 100. The unfolded garbage bag 100 has a certain volume, creating a large disinfection space through the disinfection lamp 41 movably installed within the outer shell 31. The disinfection light waves have a wide coverage area, reducing blind spots in sterilization.
[0042] In one embodiment, the disinfection lamp 41 is an ultraviolet lamp. The ultraviolet light has high energy, a wide sterilization range, does not produce harmful disinfection byproducts, and does not create a high-temperature environment, making it suitable for the use environment of the integrated sink device for food waste treatment.
[0043] The garbage bag 100 in its unfolded state is flexible. During the fall of solid waste, the garbage bag 100 may sway, affecting its smooth descent and potentially causing breakage due to uneven stress caused by the swaying. In one embodiment, the containment and packaging assembly 3 further includes a protective mesh tube 33, which surrounds the unfolded garbage bag 100, providing constraint and preventing swaying. The disinfection assembly 4 is located outside the protective mesh tube 33, allowing the disinfection light waves emitted by the disinfection lamp 41 to pass through it. The protective mesh tube 33 not only provides constraint and protection for the garbage bag 100 but also isolates it from the disinfection lamp 41, thus protecting the lamp and preventing solid waste from impacting it during fall. The mesh structure of the protective mesh tube 33 reduces obstruction of the disinfection light waves, providing protection while minimizing the impact on disinfection efficiency.
[0044] To enable the operation of the disinfection lamp 41, the disinfection assembly 4 also includes a drive mechanism 42. The output shaft of the drive mechanism 42 is connected to the disinfection lamp 41. The drive mechanism 42 is configured to drive the disinfection lamp 41 to reciprocate up and down along the axial direction of the protective mesh cylinder 33. After being filled with solid waste, the dimensions of the garbage bag 100 in the unfolded state are usually larger in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction. The disinfection lamp 41, which reciprocates up and down along the axial direction of the protective mesh cylinder 33, can cover more of the garbage bag 100 in the vertical direction, reducing the existence of disinfection dead zones. The drive mechanism 42 can be a push rod motor, a regular motor, or a cylinder, etc. For example, in one embodiment, the drive mechanism 42 can be a push rod motor. The push rod motor is fixed to the bottom of the outer casing 31, and the push rod of the push rod motor is connected to the disinfection lamp 41. As the push rod extends and retracts, the disinfection lamp 41 is raised and lowered.
[0045] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the disinfection assembly 4 also includes a guide bracket 43 and a motion bracket 44 disposed within the outer casing 31. The disinfection lamp 41 is disposed on the motion bracket 44. A guide rail 431 is provided on the guide bracket 43, and the motion bracket 44 is slidably connected to the guide rail 431. The length of the guide rail 431 is arranged along the axial direction parallel to the protective mesh cylinder 33. Through the sliding cooperation between the guide rail 431 and the motion bracket 44, on the one hand, a guiding constraint is formed on the raising and lowering of the disinfection lamp 41 to avoid the disinfection lamp 41 shifting and causing movement jamming; on the other hand, the raising and lowering resistance of the motion bracket 44 on the guide bracket 43 is reduced.
[0046] The motion support 44 surrounds at least part of the outer periphery of the protective mesh cylinder 33. The disinfection lamp 41 includes multiple lamp beads 411, which are arranged sequentially along the length of the motion support 44. The multiple lamp beads 411 form a ring arrangement around the garbage bag 100, increasing the coverage disinfection area around the garbage bag 100. Combined with the axial lifting and lowering of the disinfection lamp 41, a three-dimensional enveloping disinfection space can be formed, further reducing disinfection dead corners. After prolonged use, the integrated kitchen waste treatment sink device may leak garbage and other dirt inside the outer shell 31, which may breed bacteria and produce odors. The disinfection light waves emitted by the multiple lamp beads 411 arranged around the periphery pass through the protective mesh cylinder 33, which can act not only on the garbage bag 100 but also on other spaces inside the outer shell 31.
[0047] Multiple LED beads 411 can also be arranged in at least two rows along the height direction to further expand the disinfection irradiation coverage area, such as Figure 3 As shown.
[0048] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the moving support 44 forms a U-shaped structure, covering a 270° space around the garbage bag 100. Moreover, the gap formed by the U-shaped structure also provides a certain amount of elastic space. When the volume of solid waste is large, the garbage bag 100 can protrude to the outside of the moving support 44 through the gap in the U-shaped moving support 44, avoiding the moving support 44 from obstructing the normal receiving and acceptance of solid waste.
[0049] In one embodiment, the disinfection component 4 includes multiple guide supports 43, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the protective mesh cylinder 33. A moving support 44 is slidably connected to the multiple guide supports 43. When the moving support 44 is long, the multiple guide supports 43 can improve the stability of its movement. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the disinfection component 4 is equipped with four guide brackets 43.
[0050] In one embodiment, the bottom of the protective net cylinder 33 is open, and there is a gap between the bottom of the protective net cylinder 33 and the bottom of the outer shell 31. The height of the garbage bag 100 in the unfolded state can be equal to or slightly less than the height of the protective net cylinder 33. Figure 6 As shown. The packing mechanism 32 can periodically gather and pack the garbage bags 100 in use to form a closed state, or the user can choose the packing operation according to their needs. The closed garbage bags 100 fall through the bottom opening of the protective mesh cylinder 33 to the bottom of the outer casing 31, eliminating the need for frequent handling by the user. Users can accumulate multiple closed garbage bags 100 and remove them all at once, making it more convenient. The bottom opening of the protective mesh cylinder 33 is surrounded by reinforcing rings 331, such as... Figure 3As shown, to reduce the risk of deformation of the protective net cylinder 33, the reinforcing ring 331 covering the end of the protective net cylinder 33 also prevents sharp mesh wires from scratching users or tearing garbage bags 100.
[0051] To facilitate user removal of trash, a collection port (not shown in the figure) is provided on the side of the outer casing 31. The collection port is located relatively close to the bottom and has an openable door. By opening the door, the user can remove the trash bag 100, which is in a closed state and accumulated under the protective net cylinder 33, through the collection port.
[0052] In one embodiment, the integrated kitchen waste treatment sink device is equipped with a disinfection warning light (not shown in the figure). The disinfection warning light is communicatively connected to the disinfection lamp 41. During the operation of the disinfection lamp 41, the disinfection warning light illuminates to alert the user that a disinfection operation is in progress. This prevents the user from opening the door during disinfection, reducing the risk of UV damage. In other embodiments, the door is equipped with a self-locking structure, which is communicatively connected to the disinfection lamp 41. During the operation of the disinfection lamp 41, the self-locking structure cannot be opened by external force, further reducing the risk of the user accidentally opening the door during disinfection.
[0053] Different indoor temperatures and different types of solid waste can affect the diffusion of odors inside the garbage bag 100. To more accurately activate the disinfection lamp 41, the disinfection assembly 4 also includes a detection sensor 45, which is communicatively connected to the disinfection lamp 41 and configured to detect the odor concentration of the garbage bag 100. When the detected gas concentration exceeds a preset value, it indicates a high risk of pollutant gas diffusion, requiring the disinfection lamp 41 to be activated. In one embodiment, the detection sensor 45 is a VOC sensor, which detects volatile organic compounds and indicates whether the gas emitted from the garbage bag 100 needs to be treated.
[0054] In one embodiment, an installation module 5 is provided between the packaging mechanism 32 and the protective net cylinder 33. The interior of the installation module 5 forms a certain protective space, which can be used to accommodate electronic components such as controllers and power supplies. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations. The housing of the installation module 5 has a conductive channel 51 at its center. The garbage bag 100 in the unfolded state extends into the protective net cylinder 33 through the conductive channel 51. The detection sensor 45 is connected to the installation module 5 and located within the conductive channel 51. Figure 6As shown, the detection sensor 45 is close to the opening of the garbage bag 100. Since volatile gases generated by solid waste inside the garbage bag 100 flow upwards, they are more easily diffused to the outside through the opening. Placing the detection sensor 45 closer to the opening of the garbage bag 100 improves detection sensitivity. Furthermore, because the mounting module 5 is located below the packaging mechanism 32, the unfolded garbage bag 100 isolates the solid waste from the detection sensor 45, preventing the sensor 45 from contacting the solid waste inside the garbage bag 100 and avoiding solid waste adhering to the sensor 45, thus preventing a decrease in detection accuracy.
[0055] The packaging mechanism 32 has a connecting port 321, which connects to the guiding channel 51. A surrounding plate 323 is provided at the connecting port 321, surrounding the circumference of the connecting port 321, and forming a mounting groove 322 between the surrounding plate 323 and the housing of the packaging mechanism 32. Multiple garbage bags 100 in the rolled-up state are placed in the mounting groove 322, with the last garbage bag 100 connected in sequence in the unfolded state. The unfolded garbage bag 100 passes downward through the connecting port 321 to pass through the guiding channel 51. When automatic packaging is required, the packaging mechanism 32 uses multiple heat-sealing blades (not shown in the figure) to bring them close together to heat-seale and close the opening of the garbage bag 100, and disconnects the packaged garbage bag 100 in the closed state from the other multiple garbage bags 100 through heat sealing. As the garbage bag 100 in the heat-sealed unsealed state is heat-sealed, the bottom of the next garbage bag 100 in the adjacent rolled-up state is also heat-sealed to prepare for catching the next falling solid waste.
[0056] The multiple garbage bags 100 are wound up using a winding assembly (not shown in the figure). The multiple garbage bags 100 are wound up one after another on the winding wheel of the winding assembly. The winding wheel is driven to rotate by a winding wheel drive to achieve unwinding. The rotation angle of the winding wheel is controlled by the winding wheel drive to ensure that each unwinding is of one garbage bag 100, and to ensure that the garbage bags 100 are not stretched too much during the falling of solid waste.
[0057] The diameter of the connecting port 321 is smaller than the diameter of the conducting channel 51, such as Figure 4 As shown, the detection sensor 45 is located below the housing of the packaging mechanism 32. The projection of the connecting port 321 along the axial direction is spaced apart from the detection sensor 45. The detection sensor 45 does not extend into the connecting port 321. The housing of the packaging mechanism 32 provides shielding protection for the detection sensor 45, preventing falling solid waste from impacting the detection sensor 45 and ensuring the working life and detection reliability of the detection sensor 45.
[0058] In one embodiment, a support plate 311 is also provided inside the outer casing 31, and a protective mesh cylinder 33 is connected to the support plate 311. The installation module 5 is detachably embedded between the support plate 311 and the packaging mechanism 32. The support plate 311 provides a support structure for the installation module 5 and the protective mesh cylinder 33. An inspection port 312 is provided on the side of the outer casing 31, corresponding to the installation module 5. The installation module 5 is configured to enter and exit the outer casing 31 through the inspection port 312. The electronic components and detection sensors 45 in the installation module 5 may require inspection or maintenance. The installation module 5 can be moved horizontally and disassembled through the inspection port 312, which is convenient and will not affect the solid-liquid separation component 2 above, the disinfection component 4 below, or the outer casing 31. An openable and closable inspection cover (not shown in the figure) is provided at the inspection port 312. During non-maintenance periods, the inspection cover is closed to ensure the airtightness of the outer casing 31.
[0059] In one embodiment, the solid-liquid separation component 2 includes a valve plate 24 and a separation filter screen disposed at the drain outlet 22. The valve plate 24 is inclinedly disposed upstream of the slag discharge outlet 23, and the lowest point of the valve plate 24 is not higher than the bottom of the drain outlet 22. The valve plate 24 has an open state and a closed state. In the closed state, the valve plate 24 seals the slag discharge outlet 23. Kitchen waste in the sink 1 enters above the valve plate 24 through the drain outlet 11. The inclined valve plate 24 guides the liquid in the kitchen waste to flow towards the drain outlet 22. During the liquid flow, it may carry solid waste. The separation filter screen intercepts the solid waste, improving the separation effect. After the kitchen waste completes solid-liquid separation, the valve plate 24 opens to the open state, and the solid waste falls into the garbage bag 100 below through the slag discharge outlet 23.
[0060] The valve plate 24 includes two opposing valve plates 241, each rotatably positioned above the slag discharge port 23. In one embodiment, each valve plate 241 has an inclined closed end face, the inclination angles of the two closed end faces being complementary. Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the closed end face of the valve plate 241 on the left has an acute angle of inclination, while the closed end face of the valve plate 241 on the right has an obtuse angle of inclination. When the valve plate 24 is closed, the closed end faces of the two valve plates 241 abut against each other to form a seal. This inclined extended abutment surface provides better sealing and reduces the risk of liquid leaking into the garbage bag 100 through the valve plate 24.
[0061] The closed end face of the left valve plate 241 supports the right valve plate 241. The left valve plate 241 is equipped with a rotating motor (not shown in the figure), and the right valve plate 241 is equipped with a torsion spring. The spring force of the torsion spring acts on the left valve plate 241, causing it to always have a counter-clockwise rotation tendency. When solid waste needs to be discharged, the rotating motor actuates, causing the left valve plate 241 to rotate clockwise downwards to open, and the right valve plate 241 to rotate counter-clockwise under the weight of the solid waste, forming the open state of valve plate 24. After the solid waste falls, the right valve plate 241 returns to its original position under the action of the torsion spring. Subsequently, the rotating motor actuates, causing the left valve plate 241 to rotate to support the right valve plate 241, forming the closed state of valve plate 24. The right valve plate 241 is equipped with a limit block to constrain its clockwise rotation angle. In the closed state of valve plate 24, the two valve plates 241 maintain closed end face contact to improve sealing. The aforementioned valve plate 24 only requires one rotating motor, making it suitable for confined spaces and relatively energy-efficient. By properly adjusting the preload of the torsion spring, the right-side valve plate 241 can be opened counterclockwise under the gravity of solid waste, or closed clockwise after the solid waste falls.
[0062] Of course, in another embodiment, each of the two valve plates 241 may be equipped with a rotating motor.
