At the same time, in order to prevent the kitchen garbage from splashing during the crushing process of the kitchen garbage disposer, a splash-proof cover is usually designed in the feed inlet, which also causes disturbance to feeding to some extent. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0006] The first technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a kitchen garbage disposer facilitating feeding in view of the status of the prior art.

[0007] The second technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a kitchen garbage disposer capable of blocking garbage splashing.

[0008] The utility model discloses a kitchen garbage disposer which comprises:

[0009] A shell having a crushing cavity inside, the upper part of the crushing cavity having an upward feeding port, and the lower part of the crushing cavity having a discharging port;

[0010] A crushing element arranged in the crushing cavity and capable of crushing kitchen garbage entering from the feeding port under the drive of a driving mechanism;

[0011] characterized in that it further comprises:

[0012] A flow guide cover, the side peripheral wall of which defines a flow guide channel that is through from top to bottom and has a cross-sectional flow area gradually increasing from bottom to top, the lower end of the flow guide channel corresponding to the feeding port of the crushing cavity, and the upper end of the flow guide channel being a free port for the kitchen garbage from outside to enter; at the same time, the side peripheral wall of the flow guide cover is an elastic element and is arranged to be elastically deformed under external force so that the flow guide cover is wholly folded into the feeding port to at least partially block the feeding port.

[0013] The design of the flow guide cover in the utility model can expand the feeding port diameter and facilitate the feeding of kitchen garbage; when the machine is working, the flow guide cover can be folded into the feeding port to at least partially block the feeding port, thereby blocking the kitchen garbage from splashing upward to a certain extent.

[0014] To further solve the problem of kitchen garbage splashing upward, preferably, the kitchen garbage disposer further comprises a cover body, when the flow guide cover is wholly folded into the feeding port, the cover body covers the feeding port to close the feeding port, and the cover body is arranged to be separated from the feeding port to open the feeding port.

[0015] Preferably, the cover body comprises at least three cover plates arranged at the edge of the upper end of the flow guide channel in a circumferential direction to open the feeding port, each cover plate is constrained to the shell in a way of being movable in and out, and each cover plate moving inward is arranged to drive the flow guide cover to be wholly folded into the feeding port, at this time, the cover plates are continuously arranged in a circumferential direction to form a plate body matching the shape of the feeding port as a whole. Thus, the flow guide cover can be moved by rotating the cover plates, which is convenient to operate.

[0016] Preferably, each cover plate is a sector with a pointed end inward, so that when the flow guide cover is wholly folded into the feeding port, the cover plates form a circular plate body as a whole.

[0017] To realize the folding of the flow guide cover, further, the lower end of the flow guide channel is located in the inner periphery of the edge of the feeding port of the crushing cavity, and the flow guide cover can be wholly moved downward under the drive of a power mechanism to be folded into the feeding port.

[0018] In addition to the manner that the deflector hood is folded down and accommodated in the feeding port, the edge of the free end port of the deflector hood can be folded inward to achieve the same effect.

[0019] Further, an annular mounting seat is arranged in the feeding port in a manner that it can move up and down.

[0020] Each cover plate is connected to the mounting seat through a connecting rod, the upper end of the connecting rod is connected to the arc-shaped edge of the corresponding cover plate, and the lower end of the connecting rod is connected to the mounting seat in a manner that it can rotate inward and outward.

[0021] The deflector hood is supported on the mounting seat and the space surrounded by the connecting rods.

[0022] Therefore, the downward movement of the mounting seat can drive the inward rotation of each cover plate, and the deflector hood is folded down and accommodated in the feeding port under the action of the inwardly rotating connecting rods and cover plates; when it is necessary to open the feeding port, the upward movement of the mounting seat drives the outward rotation of each cover plate and connecting rod, and the deflector hood moves upward and restores to the original shape under the action of its own elastic force (i.e., the side wall of the deflector hood defines a deflector passage that is through from top to bottom and the flow area of the deflector passage gradually increases from bottom to top in the cross section).

[0023] In the utility model, the existing telescopic power element such as an electric rod can be used to drive the upward and downward movement of the mounting seat.

[0024] Preferably, the power mechanism is an electric lifting rod vertically arranged in the feeding port, the power output end of the electric lifting rod faces upward and is connected to the mounting seat, and is used to drive the upward and downward movement of the mounting seat.

[0025] Further, a mounting cylinder is vertically inserted into the feeding port, the mounting seat can move up and down in the mounting cylinder, and the inner side of the mounting cylinder is provided with a vertically extending limiting groove, and the mounting seat is provided with a limiting protrusion inserted into the limiting groove.

[0026] In the above-mentioned schemes, preferably, the side wall of the deflector hood folded down and accommodated in the feeding port is in a wrinkle shape in which the convex and concave parts are alternately arranged in the circumferential direction.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the advantages that the design of the deflector hood can expand the feeding port diameter, and facilitates the feeding of kitchen waste; and when the machine is working, the deflector hood can be folded down and accommodated in the feeding port to block at least part of the feeding port, thereby preventing the kitchen waste from splashing upward to a certain extent.
