The transmission part acts on each supporting arm and converts the longitudinal movement of the transmission rod into the synchronous movement of each supporting arm to the extended state.

[0025] Thus, after the button is released, the button and the transmission rod are reset, and the supporting arm returns to the folded state under the action of the elastic member.

[0026] Further, the supporting arm has two, which are oppositely arranged on two sides of the transmission rod, and the transmission component is an arc-shaped rod which is symmetrically arranged with the transmission rod as the center axis, and the arc-shaped surface of the arc-shaped rod simultaneously acts on the two supporting arms.

[0027] Further, the pushing part of the feeding rod is a flat body as a whole, has two opposite narrow sides and a wide side between the two narrow sides, and each perforation is oppositely arranged on the two narrow sides of the flat body.

[0028] In the above-mentioned schemes, preferably, the part of the feeding rod between the hand-held part and the pushing part is a cover plate part, and when the pushing part of the feeding rod is inserted into the crushing cavity, the cover plate part covers the outside of the cover.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the kitchen waste processor has the following advantages: when used, the feeding rod can be used to push the kitchen waste from the outside into the crushing cavity for crushing, when the cover needs to be opened, the telescopic arm is controlled to be in the folded state, then the pushing part of the feeding rod is inserted into the crushing cavity through the channel of the cover, then the supporting arm is controlled to be extended through the switch part on the hand-held part, and then the feeding rod is moved outward, so that the feeding rod and the cover are separated from the feeding opening of the crushing cavity, thereby the handle on the cover is not needed, and the cover can be conveniently opened. During the opening of the cover, the hand of the user can be prevented from contacting the cover. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
