[0002] China consumes a huge amount of food. With the development of social economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the amount of kitchen waste has increased dramatically. Kitchen waste contains more oil and water and rich organic matter, which is not suitable for direct landfill and incineration. Kitchen waste treatment equipment can effectively solve this problem. If the material contains too much oil and water, it will affect the degradation efficiency of the degradation host. Therefore, the kitchen waste must be dehydrated and deoiled by a solid-liquid separator before degradation.

[0003] For example, in the Chinese utility model patent with patent number CN202120755963.8 (publication number CN214972396U), a solid-liquid separator and kitchen waste treatment equipment is disclosed. The solid-liquid separator includes a storage container, a solid discharge port is provided at the bottom of the storage container, a second sealing valve is provided at the solid discharge port, a feed port and a liquid filtering mechanism are provided on the side of the storage container, and a first sealing valve is provided at the discharge port of the liquid filtering mechanism. The liquid filtering mechanism includes an inner cavity, a liquid filtering mesh hole connecting the storage container and the inner cavity, the solids in the mixture in the storage container are precipitated at the lower part of the liquid, and the liquid enters the inner cavity from the liquid filtering mesh hole, and a vacuum suction port is provided at the upper end of the storage container. The vacuum suction port makes the storage container in a negative pressure state, and the crushed kitchen waste enters the storage container under the action of atmospheric pressure. There is no need to set up a conveyor separately, which saves the installation space required for the kitchen waste treatment equipment and avoids the problem of easy blockage of the conveyor during material transmission.

[0004] The above is the process of solid-liquid separation of garbage in a solid-liquid separator, but the general process of kitchen waste treatment is: the kitchen waste is transferred to a pulverizer, the pulverizer is connected to a conveyor, the conveyor sends the pulverized kitchen waste to a solid-liquid separator for dehydration and deoiling, and the dehydrated and deoiled materials are sent to a degradation machine for degradation.

[0005] When the garbage enters the crusher, there may be defects such as poor feeding and blocking of the feed port, and the need to use a slag rod to send the garbage into the crushing chamber. Therefore, it is best to refer to the vacuum suction method of the above-mentioned solid-liquid separator to help feeding. Utility Model Content

[0012] The impeller is rotatably arranged in the accommodating cavity, and the rotation axis of the impeller extends vertically.

[0013] In order to make the intake air passage communicate with the upper space, the intake air passage and the upper space are communicated through an air passage arranged on the side wall of the shell.

[0014] In order to prevent garbage from entering the inlet air duct along with the air flow, the air outlet includes a plurality of air holes arranged at intervals, and the size of the air holes is small, which can block the garbage; or, a filter net is arranged at the air outlet, which can also block the garbage.

[0015] The airflow in the exhaust flow channel can be discharged directly into the atmosphere, but because the airflow passing through the garbage may carry the odor of the garbage, directly discharging it into the atmosphere will pollute the environment. Therefore, a discharge pipe is connected to the discharge port, and the exhaust end of the exhaust flow channel is connected to the discharge pipe, so that the gas is discharged into the discharge pipe and finally enters the sewer.

[0016] In order to separate the interior of the pulverizing chamber into an upper space and a lower space, the grinding assembly comprises a grinding disc transversely arranged in the pulverizing chamber and a cutting component arranged on the grinding disc.

[0033] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the kitchen equipment of this preferred embodiment includes a sink A and a kitchen waste disposer B. A discharge port A1 is provided at the bottom of the sink A. A deformable flexible pad A2 is provided at the discharge port A1. In a natural state, the flexible pad A2 shields the discharge port A1. When garbage needs to be discharged from the discharge port A1, the flexible pad A2 can be deformed by a slag rod, so that the garbage can pass through the discharge port A1. The flexible pad A2 can be made of silicone.

[0035] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the food waste disposer B includes a shell 1, a grinding assembly, an impeller 3, and a driving mechanism 4.

[0036] The shell 1 is arranged below the water tank A, and has a crushing chamber 11 inside. The shell 1 is provided with a feed hole 12, a feed port 13 and a discharge port 14 all connected to the crushing chamber 11, and the feed hole 12 is connected to the discharge port A1.

[0037] When garbage is put into the feed port 13, the food waste disposer B is used as an independent garbage disposer. When garbage is put into the feed hole 12, the food waste disposer cooperates with the water tank A, and the food waste in the water tank A enters the garbage disposer for cutting.

[0038] The grinding assembly includes a grinding disc 2 transversely arranged in the grinding chamber 11 and a cutting component (not shown in the figure) arranged on the grinding disc 2. The grinding assembly is an existing structure and will not be described in detail here.

[0039] The grinding disc 2 divides the interior of the grinding chamber 11 into an upper space 111 and a lower space 112. The lower space 112 is provided with a receiving chamber 113. The impeller 3 is rotatably disposed in the receiving chamber 113. The rotation axis of the impeller 3 extends vertically. When the impeller 3 rotates, negative pressure is generated in the receiving chamber 113.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, the accommodating chamber 113 is connected to the upper space 111 through the inlet flow channel 115. Specifically, the inlet flow channel 115 and the upper space 111 are connected through the air port 116 arranged on the side wall of the housing 1. The air port 116 includes a plurality of air holes 1161 arranged at intervals. The size of the air holes 1161 is small, which can play a role in blocking garbage. Alternatively, a filter screen can be arranged at the air port 116, which can also play a role in blocking garbage.

[0041] In addition, the grinding disc 2 is provided with a through hole 21 penetrating through its wall thickness, so that the air flow not only flows downward through the air port 116, but also flows downward through the through hole 21. The through hole 21 can also allow the shredded garbage to pass through into the lower space 112 and finally be discharged from the discharge port 14.

[0042] like Figure 6 As shown, the accommodating chamber 113 is connected to the outside through the exhaust channel 114. Specifically, the discharge port 14 is connected to the discharge pipe 5, and the exhaust end of the exhaust channel 114 is connected to the discharge pipe 5. Although the airflow in the exhaust channel 114 can be directly discharged into the atmosphere, because the airflow passes through the garbage and may carry the odor of the garbage, directly discharging it into the atmosphere will pollute the environment. Therefore, in this embodiment, the gas is discharged into the discharge pipe 5 and finally enters the sewer.

[0043] like Figure 5 As shown, the output shaft 41 of the driving mechanism 4 extends vertically, and the output shaft 41 passes through the impeller 3, the top wall of the accommodating chamber 113 and the grinding disc 2 from bottom to top in sequence, and the impeller 3 and the grinding disc 2 are fixedly connected to the output shaft 41, and the impeller 3 and the grinding disc 2 rotate around the axis of the output shaft 41. In this way, through a set of driving mechanisms 4, the grinding disc 2 and the impeller 3 can be driven to rotate at the same time, the structure is simplified, and the driving mechanism 4 can be a motor.

[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, the feed port 13 is connected to a feed pipe 6 with open ends, the lower end of the feed pipe 6 is connected to the feed port 13, and the upper end 61 of the feed pipe 6 is trumpet-shaped, so that the cross-sectional area of ​​the upper end 61 of the feed port 13 gradually decreases from top to bottom, making it easier for garbage to enter the feed port 13.

[0045] At least one of the side wall surfaces of the upper port 61 of the feed pipe 6 is an inclined surface 611 which gradually inclines from top to bottom toward the inside of the feed pipe 6 , and the inclined surface 611 plays a role of guiding flow.

[0046] The upper end of the feed pipe 6 is mounted on the side wall of the water tank A, the notch of the water tank A faces upward, and a faucet (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the top wall of the water tank A. The faucet adopts an existing structure, and the faucet can rotate around a vertically extending axis. The faucet can rotate until its water outlet is located directly above the upper end 61 of the feed pipe 6, or the faucet can rotate until its water outlet is located directly above the notch of the water tank A. In this way, the faucet can not only inject water into the water tank A to meet the needs of normal washing of tableware, fruits and vegetables, but also can inject water into the feed pipe 6 to clean the feed pipe 6 and prevent garbage from sticking to the wall of the feed pipe 6 to produce odor.

[0047] In order to prevent water from splashing into the feed pipe 6 when the user uses the sink A when the food waste disposer B does not work, a cover plate 62 that can open or close the upper port 61 is movably provided at the upper port 61 of the feed pipe 6. In this embodiment, the cover plate 62 is rotatably connected to the top wall of the feed pipe 6.

[0048] When the impeller 3 rotates, negative pressure is generated in the accommodating chamber 113. Since the accommodating chamber 113 is connected to the upper space 111, the air flow has two flow paths. One path passes through the outside, the upper port 61 of the feed pipe 6, the upper space 111, the air outlet 116, the accommodating chamber 113, the exhaust channel 114, and the discharge pipe 5 to enter the sewer. The other path passes through the outside, the upper port 61 of the feed pipe 6, the upper space 111, the through hole 21, the lower space 112, the discharge port 14, and the discharge pipe 5 to enter the sewer.

[0049] During the flow of air, the garbage will be impacted, that is, the garbage will be sucked in from the feed port 13 to prevent the garbage from being blocked at the feed port 13 or sticking to the wall of the feed port 13. In addition, when the impeller 3 is working, the discharge port A1 is basically in a state of being covered by the flexible pad A2, which will basically not affect the suction of garbage from the feed port 13. If garbage needs to be put into the discharge port A1 at this time, the suction force generated by the impeller 3 will be dynamically distributed to the upper port 61 of the feed pipe 6 and the discharge port A1.
