Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of tableware waste treatment, specifically to a central kitchen processing waste separation and treatment system. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most large canteens in universities, hospitals, and factories still rely on designated collection points for tableware sorting and waste removal, where leftover food is poured into waste bins, and bowls and plates are placed in their respective containers. This type of sorting and waste removal system suffers from low processing efficiency, high staffing requirements, and poor hygiene. Especially during peak dining hours, the large crowds lead to problems such as untimely food disposal, excessive accumulation of tableware, and lack of storage space, and can easily cause long queues for returning tableware, resulting in congestion in aisles. With the increasing demand for automation in canteens, the design and development of more intelligent tableware waste processing machines is imperative. Utility Model Content

[0005] The cutlery separator includes a circular belt, which is connected to the cutlery separator motor via an idler pulley.
[0006] The cutlery separator is equipped with a baffle at the separation position, and the baffle is connected to a push cylinder.
[0007] The oscillating separating screen includes a separating screen mesh, which is stepped, and a oscillating rod is installed at the lower end of the separating screen mesh. The oscillating rod is connected to an oscillating rod motor.
[0008] The upper mesh belt machine includes a mesh belt chain, which is connected to the upper mesh belt motor via an upper mesh belt sprocket.
[0009] The lower scraper conveyor includes a chain with scrapers mounted on it, and the chain is connected to the lower scraper motor via a lower scraper sprocket.
[0010] The features of this utility model are: it can automatically separate bowls, plates, and food scraps from the plate and process them separately, which improves work efficiency, makes it more hygienic, and has a high degree of automation and intelligence. Attached Figure Description

[0015] like Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model is a central kitchen processing waste separation system, including a tableware separator 1. The tableware separator 1 includes a circular belt 11, which is connected to a tableware separation motor 12 via an idler pulley. The width of the circular belt 11 at the separation position is smaller than the width at its input end. A baffle is provided at the separation position of the tableware separator 1, and a push cylinder is connected to the baffle. The output end of the tableware separator 1 is correspondingly arranged with a plate stacking screw conveyor 2. A swing separation screen 3 is provided below the separation position of the tableware separator 1. The swing separation screen 3 includes a separation screen 31, which is stepped. A swing rod 32 is installed at the lower end of the separation screen 31. The swing rod 32 is connected to the swing... A moving rod motor 33 is connected. A high-pressure nozzle 4 is installed above the oscillating separating screen 3. A residue collection area 34 is installed below the oscillating separating screen 3. An upper mesh belt machine 5 is installed at the output end of the oscillating separating screen 3. The upper mesh belt machine 5 includes a mesh belt chain 51. The mesh belt chain 51 is connected to the upper mesh belt motor 53 through an upper mesh belt sprocket 52. A lower scraper machine 6 is installed below the upper mesh belt machine 5. The lower scraper machine 6 includes a chain 61. A scraper 64 is installed on the chain 61. The chain 61 is connected to the lower scraper motor 63 through a lower scraper sprocket 62. The residue collection area 34 is correspondingly set at the input end of the lower scraper machine 6. A residue collection bucket 7 is installed at the output end of the lower scraper machine 6.
[0016] During operation, a plate containing bowls and dishes is placed into the input end of the tableware separator 1. The tableware separator motor 12 rotates, driving the plate towards the plate stacking screw conveyor 2. When the plate reaches the separation position of the tableware separator 1, i.e., above the oscillating separating screen 3, the plate falls to one side due to the shortening width of the circular belt 11. Through inertia, the bowls and dishes above the plate fall into the oscillating separating screen 3, and the plate continues to be conveyed into the plate stacking screw conveyor 2. The high-pressure nozzle 4 above the separating screen 31 is connected to the outlet of an electric water heater to rinse the tableware and the separating screen. The oscillating rod motor 33 drives the oscillating rod 32 to move, causing the bowls and plates to fall down in steps. The vibration on the separating screen 31 flips the tableware, shaking off the leftover food. The shaken-off leftover food falls into the residue collection area 34. The tableware falls onto the upper mesh belt 5 and is transported to the dishwasher by the upper mesh belt 5. The food residue separated by the oscillating separating screen 3 slides to the input end of the lower scraper 6 and is pushed into the residue collection bucket 7 by the scraper 64 of the lower scraper 6 under the drive of the lower scraper motor 63.
[0017] This invention can automatically separate bowls, plates, and food scraps from a plate and process them separately, improving work efficiency and hygiene. It is highly automated and intelligent.
[0018] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
