Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food waste, specifically a disinfection and sterilization device for food waste. Background Technology

[0002] A food waste disinfection and sterilization device is a specialized device for treating food waste. It uses physical, chemical, or biological methods to kill or remove various harmful microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and their eggs, in order to achieve the purpose of harmless treatment.

[0003] Announcement No. CN210020500U discloses a food waste disinfection device, comprising a container, a feeding device located on one side of the upper part of the container, a conveying device located below the feeding device, and a sterilization device located inside the container. This food waste disinfection device has a reasonable structural design, with both ultraviolet disinfection and steam disinfection devices installed inside the container. However, in actual food waste treatment, food waste often has complex and diverse forms and compositions. After entering the disinfection and sterilization device, due to its own physical characteristics, such as the irregular shape of food residue, the adhesion of different textures, and the random accumulation of various types of waste, it is very easy for these wastes to overlap. Larger or blocky food wastes may block other waste below or inside, hindering the penetration of steam. For example, a large accumulation of leftover food may form a thick layer, making it difficult for steam to reach the bones, fruit peels and other garbage underneath. When steam cannot cover the food waste well, the garbage areas that are not fully contacted by steam cannot reach the expected disinfection temperature and time requirements. This directly leads to poor disinfection, and harmful microorganisms such as residual bacteria, viruses, and parasite eggs can still survive in the food waste. Utility Model Content

[0021] The rotating mechanism 5 includes a motor 501 fixedly connected to the top of the first housing 1. A rotating shaft 502 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 501. A spiral plate 503 is fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the rotating shaft 502. A first rotating rod 504 is fixedly connected to the upper outer side of the rotating shaft 502. A first groove 505 is provided on the inner side of the first rotating rod 504. A first guide groove 506 is provided on the middle outer side of the first housing 1. A pulling rod 507 is provided on the inner side of the first groove 505. The inner surface of the first groove 505 is connected to the pull rod 507. The outer surface of the moving rod 507 is fitted, and the external structure of the pulling rod 507 is cuboid, so that the pulling rod 507 will not shake or rotate when it moves inside the first groove 505. The inner side of the first guide groove 506 is provided with a first guide rod 508 that is fixedly connected to the pulling rod 507. The first guide groove 506 is composed of multiple "V" shaped grooves, and the multiple "V" shaped grooves of the first guide groove 506 are interconnected, so that the first guide rod 508 will move up and down when it moves inside the first guide groove 506.

[0022] The pushing mechanism 6 includes a second connecting rod 601 fixedly connected to the lower end of the first rotating rod 504. A second outer shell 602 is connected to the lower outer side of the first outer shell 1. A rotating ring 603 is rotatably connected to the second outer shell 602. A hole 604 is provided on the inner side of the rotating ring 603. The outer side of the rotating ring 603 fits against the inner side of the second outer shell 602, and the inner side of the rotating ring 603 is flush with the inner side of the first outer shell 1, allowing the rotating ring 603 to rotate within the second outer shell 602. A push plate 609 is provided on the inner side of the hole 604. A connecting plate 605 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the pulling rod 507. The inner side of the connecting plate 605 is provided with… A guide hole 606 is provided, and a second guide rod 607 is provided on the inner side of the guide hole 606. A third connecting rod 608 is fixedly connected to the end of the second guide rod 607 away from the second connecting rod 601. The second connecting rod 601 is connected to the push plate 609 by sliding connection, and the outer side of the push plate 609 is in contact with the inner side of the hole 604, so that the push plate 609 can move inside the hole 604. The guide hole 606 has an inclined straight line shape, and the guide hole 606 and the second guide rod 607 are fitted by clearance, so that when the guide hole 606 moves up and down, it can drive the second guide rod 607 to move laterally.

[0023] Steam pipe 2 is turned on for steam sterilization. Garbage is poured into the inner side of the first outer casing 1 through inlet 3. Motor 501 is started, driving rotating shaft 502 to rotate, which in turn drives spiral plate 503 to rotate, moving the garbage upwards. When the garbage reaches the upper end of spiral plate 503, it falls from the top to the surrounding area. The rotation of rotating shaft 502 drives first rotating rod 504 and first groove 505 to rotate, causing pulling rod 507 to rotate. This, in turn, drives first guide rod 508 to rotate inside first guide groove 506. Because first guide groove 506 is composed of multiple "V"-shaped grooves that are interconnected, the first guide rod 508 rotates inside first guide groove 506. The second connecting rod 601 moves up and down, and because the connection between the second connecting rod 601 and the push plate 609 is a sliding connection, the second connecting rod 601 drives the push plate 609 and the rotating ring 603 to rotate. When the connecting plate 605 moves up and down, it drives the guide hole 606 to move up and down. The guide hole 606 has an inclined straight-line shape, and the guide hole 606 and the second guide rod 607 are fitted with a clearance fit. This allows the guide hole 606 to push the second guide rod 607 to move laterally along the trajectory of the hole 604, pushing the garbage towards the spiral plate 503. This allows the garbage to move upward continuously and fall down. Because there is less obstruction when it falls, the steam can disinfect the garbage more thoroughly, resulting in a better disinfection effect.
