Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of kitchen waste treatment, and in particular to a crushing device for kitchen waste treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Food waste refers to food scraps, waste oil, and expired food generated during food processing, catering services, and dining in establishments such as hotels, restaurants, enterprise and institution canteens, and school canteens. Food waste contains a large number of pathogens that can cause zoonotic infectious diseases, which can easily lead to cross-infection of viruses in animals and also cause human infections such as foot-and-mouth disease and hepatitis.

[0003] Extensive searching revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN211392777U, which discloses a recyclable waste screw conveyor for a waste station. The device includes a main body, a support frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body, a movable cover movably connected to the side of the main body, a handle movably connected to the outer side of the movable cover, a feed hopper fixedly connected to the top left side of the main body, and a discharge port on the bottom right side of the main body. This application provides a recyclable waste screw conveyor for waste stations. The movable cover on the surface of the main body facilitates easy opening and maintenance of the internal components. The rotation of a motor drives a crushing rod, which agitates the recyclable waste in the feed hopper, preventing blockage and improving efficiency. The crushing rod also crushes the recyclable waste while agitating it, reducing subsequent processing steps and increasing efficiency.

[0004] In summary, existing screw conveyor systems cannot handle liquid waste, which may contain a large amount of liquid.

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, the designer actively researched and innovated in order to create a crushing device for food waste treatment, which would make it more industrially valuable. Utility Model Content
