Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food waste crushing technology, specifically a food waste crusher. Background Technology

[0002] Restaurants, eateries, farmers' markets, and other food processing industries generate a large amount of food waste. This food waste contains high levels of moisture and organic matter, making it prone to spoilage and the spread of viruses and bacteria. As people's living standards and environmental awareness improve, they are paying increasing attention to the disposal of food waste. Food waste needs to be crushed before processing.

[0003] The patent publication number "CN219308840U" discloses a "crusher for kitchen waste", which includes a crushing frame, a crushing component, and a separating component. The crushing frame is provided with an inlet for loading kitchen waste and an outlet for the crushed kitchen waste to fall through. The crushing component is located inside the crushing frame and is used to crush the kitchen waste. The separating component includes a separating screen. The separating screen is located inside the crushing frame and directly below the crushing component. The separating screen separates the crushed kitchen waste, leaving residue on the screen and allowing residual liquid to fall through the screen, thus achieving the separation of the crushed kitchen waste and reducing the need for subsequent separation of the crushed mixture, thereby improving the processing efficiency of kitchen waste.

[0004] When the above-mentioned device crushes kitchen waste, it crushes the waste through crushing rollers arranged opposite each other.

[0038] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0039] Working Principle: When crushing kitchen waste, the waste is placed inside the crushing cylinder 21 through the feeding hopper 22. Under the action of gravity, the waste moves from left to right. During this movement, the first motor 24 is started, driving the rotating rod 27 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 27 drives the crushing blades 28 to rotate. Multiple crushing blades 28 can repeatedly stir and crush the waste from left to right, thus ensuring that the waste is completely crushed. The crushed waste is discharged through the rightmost side of the crushing cylinder 21 onto the discharge hopper 23, and then guided by the discharge hopper 23 into the collection box 4 below for collection. The second motor 36 is started, driving the screw 34 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 34 drives the moving block 33 to move. The movement of the moving block 33 is controlled by the movable support 32. The angle of the crushing cylinder 21 can be adjusted by moving the movable support 32. Adjusting the angle of the crushing cylinder 21 can adjust the falling speed of the waste inside, thus allowing for adjustment of the waste movement speed when dealing with different types of waste, ensuring the crushing efficiency.
