Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of garbage disposal, and in particular relates to an installation structure of a kitchen waste disposer. Background Art

[0002] Existing kitchen waste disposers are mostly installed in three-point metal flange assembly structures and screw-on plastic flange assembly structures.

[0003] Specifically, the Chinese utility model patent "A feeding device for a garbage disposer" with patent number 202221944465.9 and authorization announcement number CN218292144U includes a garbage disposer arranged at the bottom of a water tank, a mounting hole is opened at the bottom of the water tank, and a feeding port at the top of the garbage disposer is installed on the mounting hole through a mounting assembly. It also includes a feeder bracket and a feeder. The lower part of the feeder bracket is installed on the mounting assembly, and the upper part of the feeder bracket passes upward through the mounting hole and extends into the water tank. The feeder is arranged inside the water tank and is rotatably connected to the feeder bracket. A feeding channel connected to the feeding port is formed between the feeder and the bottom of the water tank.

[0004] The existing food waste disposer is suspended under the sink, and the food waste disposer will vibrate when working, which will cause the structure of the connection between the food waste disposer and the sink to become loose, and in severe cases, the entire machine will fall. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a mounting structure of a kitchen waste disposer in view of the current status of the prior art, so as to improve the overall structural stability.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above technical problems is: an installation structure of a kitchen waste disposer, comprising:

[0007] A downspout fixed relative to the water tank has a side peripheral wall extending vertically and defines a vertically penetrating passage, a flange extending outward from the upper edge of the side peripheral wall, and a support surface extending outward on the outer periphery of the side peripheral wall;

[0008] An upper hanging ring is sleeved on the outer circumference of the downpipe along the circumferential direction and supported on the supporting surface;

[0009] The main body of the kitchen waste disposer has a feed port facing upward and opposite to the lower port of the water dropper; and a mounting member is provided between the main body of the kitchen waste disposer and the upper hanging ring so that the two can be restrained together in a detachable manner;

[0010] Features:

[0011] The upper hanging ring is provided with connecting holes which pass through the upper and lower parts at intervals along the circumference, and a bolt is inserted into each connecting hole. The rod of the bolt faces upward and is threadedly connected with a nut, and the nut is pressed against the edge of the corresponding connecting hole, and the upper end of the bolt is directly or indirectly pressed against the flange of the downpipe. At this time, the upper hanging ring is pressed downward against the supporting surface of the downpipe.

[0012] Preferably, a convex hump protruding outward is provided on the side circumferential wall of the downspout along the circumferential direction, and the upper surface of the convex hump is the above-mentioned supporting surface.

[0013] The combined design of the convex bumps and multiple sets of bolts and nuts enables the upper mounting ring to be stably supported and pressed against the supporting surfaces of each convex bump.

[0014] Preferably, there are at least two convex bumps, which are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction. In this way, through the design of the positions of the bolts and nuts and the positions of the convex bumps, each convex bump can support the upper mounting ring, ensuring that the upper mounting ring is evenly stressed.

[0015] Preferably, each convex bump is in the shape of a long strip extending in the circumferential direction. The long strip convex bump has a higher strength and can support the upper mounting ring more stably.

[0016] Furthermore, the inner peripheral edge of the upper hanging ring is provided with notches at intervals along the circumferential direction, so that after the upper hanging ring rotates circumferentially, the notches on it are opposite to the corresponding convex bumps, so that the upper hanging ring can move downward and escape from the constraint of the downpipe. In this way, the upper hanging ring can be disassembled and assembled by the upper hanging ring's up and down movement and circumferential rotation, which is convenient for operation and does not affect the supporting effect of the convex bumps on the upper hanging ring during use.

[0017] In the above solutions, preferably, the mounting member includes:

[0018] The lower hanging ring is circumferentially arranged on the outer periphery of the feed port and is constrained together with the main body of the food waste disposer. At the same time, the lower hanging ring and the upper hanging ring are constrained together in a detachable manner.

[0019] Preferably, the outer peripheral edge of the upper mounting ring is provided with outer folding edges protruding outward and extending circumferentially at intervals along the circumferential direction, and each outer folding edge gradually tilts upward along the clockwise or counterclockwise extension direction;

[0020] The upper edge of the lower hanging ring is provided with inner folds extending inwards at positions corresponding to the outer folds, and each inner fold is supported on the upper side of the corresponding outer fold, so that the lower hanging ring is constrained with the upper hanging ring;

[0021] At the same time, the lower hanging ring is arranged to be rotatable relative to the feed port, so that each inner folding edge can move downward along the corresponding outer folding edge until it is free from the constraint of the outer folding edge.

[0022] In this way, the lower hanging ring can be driven to move downward or upward through the circumferential rotation of the lower hanging ring, so that the lower hanging ring can be disassembled and assembled to the upper hanging ring, which is convenient for operation.

[0023] To improve the structural stability, preferably, the upper part of the outer fold is provided with a limiting ridge to limit the inner fold from crossing the ridge and moving downward. The design of the limiting ridge can prevent the inner fold from accidentally crossing the ridge and moving downward.

[0024] Preferably, a sealing ring is further included, which is sleeved on the edge of the feed port along the circumferential direction, and the upper end surface of the sealing ring is in contact with the lower end edge of the water dropper, and the lower end surface of the sealing ring is opposite to a part of the lower hanging ring, so that the lower hanging ring is constrained to the outer periphery of the feed port. The sealing ring plays a sealing role and also plays a role of constraining the lower hanging ring, so that the lower hanging ring can be constrained to the outer periphery of the feed port in a circumferential rotation.

[0025] Furthermore, the edge of the feed port is folded and extended outward to form an upper folded edge;

[0026] The inner peripheral surface of the sealing ring is provided with an annular slot for the upper folding edge to be inserted into. In this way, the sealing ring can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the feed inlet to prevent the sealing ring from accidentally detaching from the feed inlet, so that the lower hanging ring can be more stably constrained on the outer periphery of the feed inlet; at the same time, the sealing performance can be ensured to prevent water leakage at the installation structure.

[0027] Furthermore, the upper groove wall and / or the lower groove wall of the annular slot are provided with circumferentially extending ribs, which can enhance the sealing effect.

[0028] Preferably, the inner peripheral surface of the sealing ring is further provided with an annular convex edge, the annular convex edge is located in the feed inlet and fits with the inner wall surface of the feed inlet. The annular convex edge can effectively prevent water from entering and increase the sealing effect.

[0029] Preferably, the lower hanging ring is provided with a plug hole that passes through from top to bottom at the position corresponding to each bolt, and a slot is provided on the lower end surface of each bolt, so that an external plug can pass through the plug hole and then be inserted into the slot. When the external plug passes through the plug hole and is inserted into the slot, it plays a locking role to prevent the upper and lower hanging rings from rotating relative to each other in the circumferential direction.

[0030] In the above schemes, preferably, an annular support plate is further included, which is circumferentially sleeved on the outer periphery of the side wall of the downpipe and below the flange, so that the upper end of the bolt can be pressed against its lower surface.

[0031] Preferably, an annular sealing pad and / or an annular anti-slip pad is provided between the support plate and the flange.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the advantages that: by arranging bolts and nuts on the upper mounting ring, the nuts make the upper ends of the bolts directly or indirectly abut against the flange of the water tube, thereby pressing the upper mounting ring downward on the supporting surface of the water tube, which can effectively prevent the problem of the installation structure loosening caused by the vibration of the machine. At the same time, the upper ends of the bolts directly or indirectly abut against the flange of the water tube, which can restrain the main body of the kitchen waste disposer and the water tube together, and at the same time, there is no need to set up additional components for the upper ends of the bolts to abut, and the distance from the abutting position to the center can be shortened, thereby improving the supporting force.

[0042] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0044] The drain tube 1 is fixed relative to the sink, and has a side wall 10 extending vertically and defining a channel that passes through from top to bottom, and a flange 11 extends outward from the upper edge of the side wall 10. The upper end of the drain tube 1 corresponds to the drain outlet of the bottom wall of the sink, and the specific connection structure between the two can refer to the prior art, such as the upper end of the drain tube 1 is inserted into the drain outlet of the sink, and the flange 11 on the drain tube 1 is supported on the edge of the drain outlet, so that the drain tube 1 is constrained at the drain outlet of the sink. In addition, the flange of the drain tube 1 can also be connected to the bottom wall of the sink, and the drain tube and the bottom wall of the sink are formed in one piece. At the same time, in this embodiment, a plurality of convex bumps 120 protruding outward are arranged at intervals along the circumference on the outer periphery of the side wall 10 of the drain tube 1, and each convex bump 120 is in the shape of a long strip extending circumferentially, and the upper surface of each convex bump 120 is used as a support surface 12.

[0045] The upper mounting ring 2 is circumferentially sleeved on the outer circumference of the downspout 1 and supported on the support surface 12 of each convex bump 120. The inner circumferential edge of the upper mounting ring 2 is provided with notches 23 at intervals along the circumference, so that after the upper mounting ring 2 rotates circumferentially, the notches 23 on it are opposite to the corresponding convex bumps 120, so that the upper mounting ring 2 can move downward and escape from the constraint of the downspout 1. At the same time, the upper mounting ring 2 is provided with vertically through-going connection holes 20 at intervals along the circumference, and a bolt 21 is inserted into each connection hole 20, the rod of the bolt 21 is upward and is threadedly connected with a nut 22, the nut 22 is pressed against the edge of the corresponding connection hole 20, and the upper end of the bolt 21 is indirectly pressed against the flange 11 of the downspout 1, at this time, the upper mounting ring 2 is pressed downward against the support surface 12 of the downspout 1. In this embodiment, the support plate 6 is annular and is circumferentially sleeved on the outer periphery of the side wall 10 of the downpipe 1 and below the flange 11, so that the upper end of the bolt 21 is pressed against its lower surface. At the same time, an annular sealing pad 7 and an annular anti-slip pad 8 are provided between the support plate 6 and the flange 11. For details, please refer to Figure 1 , 3 、6.

[0046] The above-mentioned kitchen waste disposer body 3 has an upward feed port 30 opposite to the lower end of the drain tube 1. The edge of the feed port 30 is folded and extended outward to form an upper folded edge 31. For details, please refer to Figure 3 , 5 .

[0047] The lower hanging ring 4 is circumferentially arranged on the outer periphery of the feed port 30 and is located below the upper folding edge 31 .

[0048] like Figure 3 , 5As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the sealing ring 5 is sleeved on the edge of the feed port 30 along the circumferential direction, and the inner circumferential surface of the sealing ring 5 is provided with an annular slot 50 for the upper folded edge 31 to be inserted. The upper groove wall and the lower groove wall of the annular slot 50 are both provided with convex ribs 51 extending in the circumferential direction to improve the sealing effect. In addition, the inner circumferential surface of the sealing ring 5 is also provided with an annular convex edge 52, which is located in the feed port 30 and fits with the inner wall surface of the feed port 30 to prevent water from entering the annular groove 50. At the same time, the lower end surface of the sealing ring 5 is opposite to a part of the lower hanging ring 4, so as to prevent the lower hanging ring 4 from detaching upward from the feed port 30 and does not affect the circumferential rotation of the lower hanging ring 4.

[0049] In this embodiment, the lower hanging ring 4 and the upper hanging ring 2 are restrained together in a detachable manner, and at this time, the upper end surface of the sealing ring 5 is in contact with the lower end edge of the water drop tube 1. Specifically:

In this embodiment, in order to prevent the lower hanging ring 4 from rotating accidentally, the upper side part of the outer folding edge 24 is provided with a limiting rib 241 to limit the inner folding edge 41 from moving downward over the rib. At the same time, the lower hanging ring 4 is provided with a vertically penetrating plug hole 42 at the position corresponding to each bolt 21 , and a slot 210 is provided on the lower end surface of each bolt 21 , so that an external pin can pass through the plug hole 42 and then be inserted into the slot 210 .

[0051] When the food waste disposer body needs to be installed, the upper mounting ring 2 can be pressed downward onto the supporting surface 12 of the downspout 1 by tightening the nuts and bolts 21 .

[0052] Then align the feed port on the food waste disposer body 3 upward with the lower port of the downpipe 1, and rotate the lower hanging ring 4 so that the inner folded edge 41 on the lower hanging ring 4 moves upward along the upper surface of the corresponding outer folded edge 24 until it passes over the corresponding limiting ridge 241, and finally, insert the external pin through the plug hole 42 and into the slot 210, thereby constraining the lower hanging ring 4 and the upper hanging ring 2 together. At this time, the sealing ring 5 is pressed tightly between the lower end of the downpipe 1 and the upper folded edge 31 of the food waste disposer body 3 to achieve a good seal.

[0053] The other structures of the food waste disposer body 3 in this embodiment can be designed with reference to the prior art and will not be described in detail here.
