Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a drainer, and more particularly to a drainer that can handle kitchen waste. Background Technology
[0002] Kitchen sinks are common kitchen utensils. After dishes are used, solid waste is usually left in the sink. When removing solid waste, the water it carries can easily drip around, affecting environmental hygiene. Therefore, some sinks are equipped with garbage disposals. The garbage disposal is installed at the bottom of the sink and connected to the drain pipe. The garbage disposal grinds up the kitchen waste and discharges it directly through the drain pipe.
[0003] However, current garbage disposers all use motors to drive blades to rotate and pulverize kitchen waste, which has the following drawbacks: 1. When the motor leaks electricity, the hydrated waste will transmit electricity to the metal tank because the blades are directly connected to the motor's drive shaft, thus posing a safety hazard; 2. The motor vibrates significantly during operation, affecting normal use; 3. Production costs are high and maintenance is inconvenient. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This utility model provides a drain device for processing kitchen waste. The device uses water pressure as power to drive a turbine that rotates a blade shaft, causing the blades to pulverize the kitchen waste before it is discharged through a drain pipe. It features low production cost, high safety, and no noise. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0005] A drainer for processing kitchen waste includes a housing and a bottom cover connected to the housing. The bottom cover has a water inlet on one side, which communicates with the interior of the bottom cover. A turbine assembly is located inside the bottom cover, and a cutter shaft is positioned above the turbine assembly. The cutter shaft passes through a spacer and extends into a filter basket in the housing. Multiple blades are fixed on the cutter shaft. High-pressure water entering from the water inlet drives the turbine assembly to rotate, which in turn drives the cutter shaft to rotate, causing the blades to pulverize the waste entering the filter basket. The pulverized waste is then discharged through a drain outlet on one side of the housing.
[0006] Furthermore, the diameter of the inlet port gradually decreases from its inlet end to its outlet end, which increases the water flow pressure.
[0007] Furthermore, the turbine assembly includes an impeller, several blades, and a connecting shaft. The blades include long blades and short blades, which are alternately distributed on the impeller. The connecting shaft is vertically fixed to the boss of the impeller and is connected to the cutter shaft. The water flow drives the blades to drive the cutter shaft to rotate, thereby driving the blades to rotate to achieve the crushing of waste.
[0008] Furthermore, both the long and short blades are curved blades. The long blades extend from the outer edge of the blade disk to the protrusion of the blade disk, while the short blades extend inward from the outer edge of the blade disk but do not contact the protrusion of the blade disk. The length of the short blades is 2 / 3 of that of the long blades.
[0009] Furthermore, the cutter shaft is a square shaft, and the blade is provided with a square hole for the square shaft to be inserted. The cutter shaft passes through the square hole of the blade and locks the blade through a fixing block.
[0010] Furthermore, there are four blades, which are staggered and spaced apart. The inner wall of the filter basket is provided with a first cutting blade and a second cutting blade. The first cutting blade is located between the two blades above the blade shaft and cooperates with the two blades above the blade shaft. The second cutting blade is located between the two blades below the blade shaft and cooperates with the two blades below the blade shaft, which can better crush kitchen waste.
[0011] Furthermore, the filter basket is a cylindrical structure with open top and bottom. The upper and lower end faces of the filter basket are provided with slots. The upper slot is inserted into the locking block of the housing, and the lower slot is inserted into the locking block of the spacer. In order to prevent debris from sticking to the inner wall of the filter basket when the blade rotates, a raised ridge is also provided on the inner wall of the filter basket. A filter hole is provided on the side of the filter basket away from the raised ridge. The filter hole is located at the drain port of the housing.
[0012] Furthermore, the spacer includes a base and a cover. The cover is fastened to the base to form a cavity. A slot is provided on one side of the cover, which is located at the drain outlet. A through hole is provided on the top of the cover. Water entering from the water inlet enters the cover through the central hole of the base. Part of the water entering the cover is discharged from the drain outlet of the shell through the slot, and the other part enters the filter basket through the through hole at the top of the cover, and pushes the waste crushed by the blades to be discharged from the drain outlet of the shell.
[0013] Furthermore, a slot is provided at the bottom of the cover, and a locking block is provided at the top of the base to cooperate with the slot of the cover. The cover is fixed to the base through the slot. A groove is provided at the bottom of the base, and the upper end of the turbine abuts against the groove and can rotate along the groove. In order to make the turbine rotate more smoothly, a protrusion is provided below the turbine's impeller, and the protrusion is inserted into the positioning groove of the bottom cover.
[0014] Furthermore, the connecting shaft of the turbine passes through the base and the cover. The connecting shaft includes a lower connecting shaft and an upper connecting shaft. The outer diameter of the lower connecting shaft is smaller than the inner diameter of the center hole of the base, so that water entering through the water inlet can enter the cover through the center hole of the base. The cover is provided with a center hole that matches the upper connecting shaft.
[0015] This utility model has a simple structure and reasonable design. It uses water pressure as power to drive a turbine to rotate the blade shaft, which in turn pulverizes kitchen waste. The pulverized waste is discharged directly from the drain pipe, avoiding the growth of bacteria, insects, and odors caused by the storage of kitchen waste. This effectively optimizes the home environment, has low production costs, high safety, and no noise, and solves a series of problems caused by current technologies that rely on motors to drive the blades.

[0031] To better understand the purpose, function, and specific design of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed account of the kitchen waste disposal drain of this utility model.
[0032] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the drain device for processing kitchen waste of this utility model includes a housing 1 and a bottom cover 2 connected to the housing 1. The housing 1 has a cylindrical structure with open top and bottom ends and a drain outlet 11 on one side. The lower end of the housing 1 has an external thread 12, and the upper end of the bottom cover 2 has an internal thread 22 that mates with the external thread of the housing 1. The bottom cover 2 is connected to the external thread of the housing 1 through the internal thread. A water inlet 21 is provided on one side of the bottom cover 2, which is connected to the interior of the bottom cover 2. A turbine assembly 3 is provided inside the bottom cover 2, and a cutter shaft 35 is provided above the turbine assembly 3. The cutter shaft 35 passes through a spacer 4 and extends into the filter basket 5 of the housing 1. Multiple blades 6 are fixed on the cutter shaft 35. The high-pressure water flow entering from the water inlet 21 drives the turbine assembly 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the cutter shaft 35 to rotate, so that the blades 6 crush the waste entering the filter basket 5. The crushed waste is discharged through the drain outlet 11 on one side of the housing 1.
[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the diameter of the inlet port 21 gradually decreases from its inlet end to its outlet end, which increases the water flow pressure.
[0034] like Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the turbine assembly 3 includes an impeller 31, several blades, and a connecting shaft 32. The blades include long blades 33 and short blades 34, which are alternately distributed on the impeller 31. The connecting shaft 32 is vertically fixed to the boss 311 of the impeller 31 and is connected to the cutter shaft 35. Both the long blades 33 and the short blades 34 are curved blades. The long blades 33 extend from the outer edge of the impeller 31 to the boss 311 of the impeller 31, while the short blades 34 extend inward from the outer edge of the impeller 31 but do not contact the boss 311 of the impeller 31. The length of the short blades 34 is two-thirds that of the long blades 33, so that when the water flow impacts the blades, it can generate a strong rotational speed, thereby driving the cutter shaft 35 to rotate rapidly.
[0035] like Figure 5 , Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the blade shaft 35 is a square shaft, and the blade 6 has a square hole for inserting the square shaft. The blade shaft 35 passes through the square hole of the blade 6 and is locked to the blade 6 by the fixing block 7. There are four blades, which are staggered and spaced apart. The inner wall of the filter basket 5 is provided with a first cutting blade 51 and a second cutting blade 52. The first cutting blade 51 is located between the two blades 6 above the blade shaft 35 and cooperates with the two blades 6 above the blade shaft 35. The second cutting blade 52 is located between the two blades 6 below the blade shaft 35 and cooperates with the two blades 6 below the blade shaft 35, which can better crush kitchen waste.
[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 14 As shown, the filter basket 5 has a cylindrical structure with open top and bottom, and its bottom rests against the spacer 4. To prevent debris from sticking to the inner wall of the filter basket 5 when the blade 6 rotates, a raised ridge 53 is provided on the inner wall of the filter basket 5. A filter hole 56 is provided on the side of the filter basket 5 away from the raised ridge 53. The filter hole 56 is located at the drain outlet 11 of the housing 1, and the debris broken up by the blade 6 is discharged from the filter hole 56.
[0037] like Figure 5 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 The upper end of the filter basket 5 is provided with an upper slot 54, and the lower end of the filter basket 5 is provided with a lower slot 55. The upper slot 54 is inserted into the slot 13 of the housing 1, and the lower slot 55 is inserted into the slot 422 of the spacer 4.
[0038] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the spacer 4 includes a base 41 and a cover 42. The cover 42 is fastened to the base 41 to form a cavity. A slot 423 is provided on one side of the cover 42, which is located at the drain outlet 11. A through hole 424 is provided on the top of the cover 42. Water entering from the water inlet 21 enters the cover 42 through the central hole of the base 42. Part of the water entering the cover 42 is discharged from the drain outlet 11 of the housing 1 through the slot 423, and the other part enters the water filter basket 5 through the through hole 424 at the top of the cover 42, and pushes the garbage crushed by the blade 6 to be discharged from the drain outlet 11 of the housing 1.
[0039] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the bottom of the cover 42 is provided with a slot 421, and the top of the base 41 is provided with a locking block 411 that cooperates with the slot 421 of the cover 42. The cover 42 is fixed to the base 41 through the slot 421. The bottom of the base 41 is provided with a groove 412, and the upper end of the turbine abuts against the groove 412 and can rotate along the groove 412. The base 41 is placed on the stepped surface 24 of the bottom cover 2, and the cover 42 is placed inside the housing 1.
[0040] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in order to make the turbine rotate more smoothly, a protrusion 312 is provided below the turbine blade disk 31, which is inserted into the positioning groove 23 of the bottom cover 2.
[0041] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 10 and Figure 12 As shown, the connecting shaft 32 of the turbine passes through the base 41 and the cover 42. The connecting shaft 32 includes a lower connecting shaft 321 and an upper connecting shaft 322. The outer diameter of the lower connecting shaft 321 is smaller than the inner diameter of the central hole of the base 41, so that water entering through the water inlet 21 can enter the cover 42 through the central hole of the base 41. The cover 42 is provided with a central hole that matches the upper connecting shaft 322.
[0042] In use, connect the kitchen waste disposal unit to the drain pipe at the bottom of the sink. The water inlet 21 connects to the faucet via the water inlet pipe. An electronic delay valve can be installed on the water inlet pipe, allowing you to set the delay time as needed. The drain outlet 11 connects to the drain pipe via the drain pipe. After the sink has finished processing the dishes, the waste will enter the filter basket 5 of the disposal unit through the drain pipe. At this time, open the electronic delay valve, and water from the water inlet pipe enters the bottom cover 2 through the water inlet 21. Under the action of the high-pressure water flow, the blades drive the blade shaft 35 to rotate, causing the blades 6 to pulverize the waste in the filter basket 5. The pulverized waste is then discharged from the drain pipe.
[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
