[0002] The household kitchen waste processor is a modern environmental protection household appliance, which is specially designed to process the organic waste generated in the kitchen. By means of microbial decomposition, stirring the kitchen waste, heating and evaporating the moisture of the kitchen waste, etc., the volume of the processed kitchen waste is reduced or used as organic fertilizer for green plants to absorb and reuse. A large amount of gas will be generated during the drying and decomposition process of the kitchen waste processor. This gas not only has an odor, but may also carry harmful substances such as bacteria. If the gas is directly discharged from the kitchen waste processor into the air, it will cause secondary environmental pollution. Therefore, there are kitchen waste processors on the market that can handle odors.

[0025] The following describes the embodiments of the present utility model in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0026] AsFigures 1 to 8 The kitchen waste disposer with replaceable filter device shown comprises a housing 1, wherein the housing 1 is provided with an inner cavity 10, wherein a filter housing 2 communicating with the inner cavity 10 is provided on the outer side of the housing 1, wherein the filter housing 2 is provided with a filter cavity 20, a filter element located in the filter cavity 20, and a retractable and slidable elastic fixing element 3, wherein the housing 1 is further provided with a limiting portion that can cooperate with the elastic fixing element 3 to limit the position, and when the elastic fixing element 3 is connected with the limiting portion or the elastic fixing element 3 is separated from the limiting portion, the filter housing 2 can be fixed or separated from the housing 1. The utility model allows users to easily install and remove the filter housing by providing a retractable and slidable elastic fixing element and a limiting portion that cooperates therewith, thereby avoiding the space waste caused by placing the deodorizing device inside the base in the traditional design, making the volume of the entire kitchen waste disposer more compact and reducing the indoor space occupied.

[0027] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention but not a limitation, the filter device is designed as an independently detachable module, which does not occupy the space inside the main body of the food waste processor, thereby avoiding the problem of increased base volume caused by the built-in filter device. This not only reduces the overall size of the product, but also makes the food waste processor more compact and suitable for various application scenarios. A filter cavity is provided in the filter housing to accommodate filter elements, such as an activated carbon layer, a biological enzyme filter element, etc. The filter element can effectively remove odors and harmful substances generated during the food waste processing process. Push or pull the elastic fixing member so that the elastic fixing member is connected or separated from the limiting portion, thereby achieving fixation or detachment between the filter housing and the outer shell, which greatly simplifies the installation and disassembly process. Users can easily replace or clean the filter element without disassembling the entire outer shell, which greatly improves the convenience of maintenance.

[0028] like Figure 3The kitchen waste processor with a replaceable filter device as shown. The elastic fixing member 3 includes a slidable fixing block 31 located outside the filter housing 2, a driving portion 32 for driving the fixing block 31 to move, and an elastic member 33 for rebounding and having one end abutted against the fixing block 31 or the driving portion 32. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the user only needs to perform simple operations such as pressing, pulling or rotating the driving portion to drive the fixing block to slide, so as to realize the locking or unlocking between the filter housing and the outer shell. Through the intuitive and easy-to-operate design, the user experience is greatly improved. When the fixing block cooperates with the limiting portion on the outer shell under the action of the driving portion, the filter housing can be firmly fixed on the outer shell, ensuring that it will not loosen or fall off due to vibration or external force during the kitchen waste treatment process, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the processor and the filtering effect. The setting of elastic members such as springs and elastic sheets provides a reliable resilience force for the fixing block. When the driving portion is released, the elastic member can automatically push the fixing block back to the initial position to prepare for the next locking operation.

[0029] Specifically, when the user pushes the driving portion to unlock the filter housing, the elastic member is compressed; after releasing the driving portion, the restoring force of the elastic member will automatically return the fixing block to its original position to achieve automatic locking, ensuring that the filter housing is firmly installed on the outer shell and achieving a fastening effect without additional operations.

[0030] Optionally, in some embodiments, the driving portion is located between the fixing block and the elastic member, and the driving portion is in contact with the elastic member.

[0031] Optionally, in some embodiments, the elastic member is located between the fixing block and the driving portion, and the driving portion drives the fixing block to move by pulling the elastic member.

[0032] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 The kitchen waste processor with a replaceable filter device as shown. The outer shell 1 is provided with an installation cavity 11 for accommodating the filter housing 2 and an installation cavity opening 12 for the filter housing 2 to extend into, and the outer surface of the filter housing 2 is flush with the outer surface of the outer shell 1. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, since the outer surface of the filter housing is flush with the outer surface of the outer shell, it not only meets the aesthetic requirements of modern homes but also improves the overall texture of the product. The appearance of the entire kitchen waste processor is more tidy and unified, without protruding edges or corners, which reduces the risk of accidental injury to the user during use. The design of the installation cavity enables the filter housing to be compactly embedded inside the outer shell without occupying additional external space. Since the exposed part of the filter housing is less and is flush with the outer surface of the outer shell, the accumulation of dust and dirt is reduced. This is not only beneficial to keeping the processor clean but also extends the service life of the product.

[0033] As Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown in the food waste processor with a replaceable filter device, the filter housing 2 is provided with a first housing 21 close to the opening 12 of the installation cavity and a second housing 22 close to the inner wall of the installation cavity 11. The first housing 21 and the second housing 22 are detachably connected, and the first housing 21 and / or the second housing 22 are provided with a first filter housing opening 23 for the elastic fixing member 3 to protrude. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, since the first housing and the second housing are detachably connected, the user can easily separate them, thereby conveniently replacing the filter element or performing other maintenance work. This modular design not only improves the maintenance efficiency but also reduces the maintenance cost. The design of the first filter housing opening enables the elastic fixing member to smoothly protrude and cooperate with the limiting portion on the outer shell. This design not only simplifies the installation and disassembly process but also ensures that the elastic fixing member can firmly fix the filter housing to prevent it from loosening or falling off during operation.

[0034] As Figure 7 shown in the food waste processor with a replaceable filter device, the first housing 21 is provided with a first housing accommodation cavity 211 for the driving portion 32 to extend into and a handle accommodation cavity 212 located on one side of the first housing accommodation cavity. The first housing accommodation cavity 211 is provided with a limiting end 2111 for limiting the movement of the driving portion 32. The first housing accommodation cavity 211 and the handle accommodation cavity 212 are on the same straight line, and the installation cavity 11 is located on the side of the outer shell 1. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, since the first housing accommodation cavity and the handle accommodation cavity are on the same straight line, the user can easily pull the driving portion through the handle, and the handle accommodation cavity facilitates the user to position and fix, so that there is no need to perform complex rotation or adjustment actions, which can ensure that the force on the filter housing is more uniform during operation, avoid structural deformation or damage caused by uneven local force, and improve the durability and reliability of the product. This linear design greatly simplifies the operation process and improves the user experience. The setting of the limiting end effectively limits the movement range of the driving portion in the first housing accommodation cavity to prevent it from accidentally sliding or falling off during operation. This stability not only ensures the reliable connection between the filter housing and the outer shell but also extends the service life of the driving portion and the entire filter device. Setting the installation cavity on the side of the outer shell and using the internal space of the first housing to accommodate the driving portion and place the hand makes the structure of the entire processor more compact and reasonable. This compact design helps to save kitchen space and makes the processor easier to install and fix.

[0035] As Figure 3 and Figure 6The kitchen waste processor with a replaceable filter device as shown. The limiting part is a first installation cavity limiting groove 13 provided on one side of the installation cavity 11 for the fixing block 31 to extend into, and the fixing block 31 is provided with a fixing block inclined surface 311 that cooperates with the first installation cavity limiting groove 13. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the cooperation between the fixing block inclined surface on the fixing block and the first installation cavity limiting groove can achieve precise positioning of the filter housing during the installation process. When the user pushes or pulls the fixing block, the inclined surface design can guide the fixing block to smoothly slide into or out of the first installation cavity limiting groove, thereby realizing firm fixation or easy separation between the filter housing and the outer shell. This design not only improves the installation accuracy but also ensures the stability of the filter housing during the working process. The contact surface between the fixing block inclined surface and the first installation cavity limiting groove can reduce friction during the sliding process, ensuring durability for long-term use. At the same time, the inclined surface design helps to disperse stress and reduce wear and deformation caused by long-term use.

[0036] As Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The kitchen waste processor with a replaceable filter device as shown. The filter cavity 20 is provided with a positioning part 4. The positioning part 4 is provided with a positioning part accommodating groove 41 for accommodating the elastic member 33. The driving part 32 is provided with a driving part connecting column 321 that cooperates with the elastic member 33. The elastic member 33 is sleeved outside the driving part connecting column 321, and the elastic member 33 is respectively in contact with the inner wall of the driving part 32 and the positioning part accommodating groove 41. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the cooperation between the positioning part accommodating groove and the elastic member ensures the stability of the filter housing after installation. The fixed position of the elastic member between the driving part connecting column and the positioning part accommodating groove prevents accidental movement of the filter housing in any direction, thereby reducing the risk of component damage caused by vibration or external force. The sleeved design of the driving part connecting column and the elastic member simplifies the operation process. The user can easily sleeve the elastic member on the driving part connecting column, making the installation and disassembly processes simple. By the contact between the inner wall of the positioning part accommodating groove and the elastic member, it can ensure that the elastic member maintains a consistent elastic force output throughout the working range, avoiding performance attenuation of the elastic member due to uneven force, and improving the working efficiency and stability of the elastic member.

[0037] As Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8The food waste processor with a replaceable filter device as shown, the filter cavity 20 is provided with a fixed connecting piece 5 connected to the driving part 32, a connecting part 320 connected to the fixed connecting piece 5, and a sliding groove 3210 located on the connecting part 320. A fastener passes through the fixed connecting piece 5 and the sliding groove 3210 and is connected to the second housing 22 to limit the sliding of the driving part 32 on the sliding groove 3210. The connecting part 320 and the driving part 32 are integrally formed. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the elastic fixing piece is tightly connected by the fixed connecting piece, ensuring the structural stability. This connection method reduces the risk of loosening or separation caused by vibration or impact during operation. The connecting part on the driving part is provided with a sliding groove, and the fastener is connected to the second housing by passing through the fixed connecting piece and the sliding groove, effectively restricting the sliding of the driving part on the sliding groove. Through precise sliding control, the stability and accuracy of the driving part during operation are ensured, avoiding the problem of inability to rebound and reset due to excessive sliding. The integrally formed fixing block and driving part reduce the assembly steps, simplify the production process, are beneficial to improving production efficiency, shortening the production cycle, and reducing production costs. In addition, the integrally designed connecting part and driving part increase the overall stability and reduce the risk of loosening or damage caused by component separation. This structure makes the fixing of the filter housing in the food waste processor more reliable. Specifically, the fixing block, the connecting part, and the driving part are integrally formed by injection molding or stamping.

[0038] As Figure 3 shown in the food waste processor with a replaceable filter device, the moving direction of the driving part 32 is parallel to the moving direction of the fixing block 31, or the moving direction of the driving part 32 is parallel to the moving direction of the elastic member 33, or the moving direction of the fixing block 31 is parallel to the moving direction of the elastic member 33.

[0039] Optionally, in some embodiments, the moving direction of the driving part is parallel to the moving direction of the fixing block, reducing unnecessary transmission elements and lowering the manufacturing cost. Since the moving directions are parallel, the energy loss during the transmission process is less, enabling the driving part to more effectively transmit power to the fixing block, thereby improving the overall working efficiency. Parallel movement helps to maintain the balance and stability of the system, reducing vibration and noise caused by direction deviation.

[0040] Optionally, in some embodiments, the moving direction of the driving part is parallel to the moving direction of the elastic member. The driving part can directly act on the elastic member without passing through a complex transmission mechanism, with a more rapid response speed and an increased speed of the disassembly and assembly process. When the driving part and the elastic member move in parallel, the buffering characteristics of the elastic member can be better utilized to reduce the impact and vibration on the overall structure.

[0041] Optionally, in some embodiments, the moving direction of the fixed block is parallel to the moving direction of the elastic member. The fixed block and the elastic member can move in a coordinated manner, which helps to achieve more precise control and adjustment. The parallel movement reduces the relative movement speed difference and the change in the contact area between components, thereby reducing friction and wear and extending the service life of the food waste processor.

[0042] As Figure 4 shown in the food waste processor with a replaceable filter device, a clamping portion 24 is provided at the bottom of the filter housing 2, a second installation cavity limiting groove 14 cooperating with the clamping portion 24 is provided in the installation cavity 11, and a clamping portion inclined surface 241 capable of slidingly cooperating with the second installation cavity limiting groove 14 is provided on the clamping portion 24. Further, as a preferred implementation manner rather than a limitation of the present invention, the cooperation between the clamping portion and the second installation cavity limiting groove ensures the precise positioning of the filter housing during the installation process. The design of the clamping portion inclined surface enables the filter housing to smoothly slide to a predetermined position and automatically align with the limiting groove when inserted into the installation cavity, thereby achieving rapid and accurate installation, and this design reduces the error during the installation process. Once the filter housing is completely inserted into the installation cavity and snapped into the limiting groove, the tight cooperation between the clamping portion and the limiting groove will provide strong stability, and this stability ensures that the filter housing will not loosen or fall off due to vibration or impact during the working process, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the food waste processor.

[0043] Optionally, in some embodiments, when installing the filter housing, first snap the clamping portion into the second installation cavity limiting groove, and then cooperate and connect with the limiting portion through the elastic fixing member to fix the filter housing.

[0044] Optionally, in some embodiments, when disassembling the filter housing, first disconnect the elastic fixing member from the limiting portion, and then disengage the clamping portion from the second installation cavity limiting groove to disassemble the filter housing.
