TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to garbage disposal technical field, concretely relates to a kind of kitchen garbage disposer and sink with the kitchen garbage disposer of this. BACKGROUND

[0002] The existing kitchen garbage disposer generally includes a casing with a feed inlet and a discharge outlet, a crushing element arranged in the casing, and a driving mechanism for driving the crushing element to work, which can crush the kitchen garbage entering from the feed inlet under the drive of the driving mechanism.

[0003] Specifically, as the Chinese Utility Model Patent No.202221965311.8, Authorized Announcement No.CN218292145U, "A kitchen garbage disposer", includes a casing and a grinding cover, a grinding disc is installed inside the grinding cover, the grinding cover includes an upper grinding cover and a lower grinding cover, the upper grinding cover has a feeding port at the top, the lower grinding cover has a discharge port, an annular wall is installed on the inner circumferential wall of the lower side of the upper grinding cover, the annular wall is above the grinding disc, an annular cavity is formed between the annular wall and the upper grinding cover, a water inlet is opened on the outer circumferential wall of the upper grinding cover and connected to the annular cavity, a water outlet hole is opened on the inner wall of the annular cavity, and an annular cutter that can rotate under water pressure is installed in the annular cavity.

[0004] For example, as the Chinese Utility Model Patent No.202321652436.X, Authorized Announcement No.CN220538788U, "A kitchen garbage disposal system", includes a sink and a garbage disposer arranged below the sink, the garbage disposer includes a grinding cavity and a grinding disc arranged in the grinding cavity, the grinding cavity has a discharge port, the discharge port is below the grinding disc, the bottom of the sink forms a step structure, the top of the step structure has a main feeding port, a feeding cover is installed on the main feeding port, and the top of the grinding cavity is installed on the main feeding port.

[0005] In the existing kitchen garbage disposer, the driving mechanism, the crushing element, and the feed inlet are arranged in the vertical direction, and the working noise can directly spread from the feed inlet to the user, causing a poor user experience. Moreover, during the process of crushing the kitchen garbage by the crushing element, part of the kitchen garbage may splash out through the feed inlet.

[0006] At the same time, the existing kitchen garbage disposer is generally installed below the kitchen sink, and water is introduced by opening the sink faucet, which cooperates with the crushing and grinding of the crushing element to achieve the effect of disposing and discharging the treated garbage. Some kitchen garbage disposers use electromagnetic valves and other valve bodies to automatically introduce water into the cavity, which is more convenient and does not require manual operation. After the work is completed, the water is automatically turned off, saving time and effort. However, regardless of the water introduction method, the water cannot flush away the kitchen residue and oil inside the crushing chamber, causing the deposition of residue and oil. Utility model content

[0007] The first technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a kitchen garbage disposer to reduce the working noise.

[0008] The second technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a sink with the kitchen garbage disposer.

[0038] The utility model will be described further in detail in combination with the embodiment of the drawings.

[0039] As Figures 1-6 As shown in the figure, it is a preferred embodiment of a kitchen waste processor and a sink with the kitchen waste processor of the utility model, and the sink comprises a sink body 4 and a kitchen waste processor.

[0040] The bottom of the water tank body 4 is a stepped section, and it has an upper surface 41, a lower surface 42, and a vertically extending first wall 43 connecting the upper and lower surfaces. The first wall 43 is provided with a discharge port 430, and the lower edge of the discharge port 430 is located on the lower surface 42 of the stepped section. In this embodiment, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the upper surface 41 and the lower surface 42 are arranged on the left and right respectively, with the lower surface 42 sloping downwards from right to left.

[0041] The food waste disposer is located below the upper surface 41 of the sink body 4 and includes a housing 1, a grinding component 2, a drive mechanism 3, an electronic control component 6, a heat-conducting component 7, and a water inlet pipe 8. The housing 1 has a grinding chamber 10 and a water storage chamber 11 located above the grinding chamber. The grinding chamber 10 has a first top wall 101 and a first side wall 102 extending downwards from the periphery of the first top wall 101. A feed inlet 10a is located on the right side of the first side wall 102, and the feed inlet 10a is connected to a discharge port 430 on the first wall 43. Specifically, the lower edge of the discharge port 430 is located on the lower surface 42 of the stepped portion, and the lower edge of the feed inlet 10a is supported below the lower surface 42 of the stepped portion and outside the lower edge of the discharge port 430. This allows water and food waste within the sink body to enter the grinding chamber 10 through the discharge port 430 and the feed inlet 10a. The first side wall 102 is also provided with a discharge port, which is located below the inlet 10a and is connected to the drain pipe through the discharge pipe 5.

[0042] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, the upper side wall of the water tank body 4 is provided with an overflow port 45, which is connected to the discharge pipe 5 through an overflow pipe.

[0043] The water storage chamber 11 has a second top wall 111 located above the first top wall 101 and a second side wall 112 extending downward from the periphery of the second top wall 111. A water inlet hole 11a is provided on the left side of the second side wall 112. The right side of the second side wall 112 is abutted against the first wall 43 of the stepped portion, and the lower edge of the right side of the second side wall 112 is located to the right of the upper edge of the feed inlet 10a, forming a downward-facing water inlet 10c. The water inlet 10c is flat and extends along the upper edge of the feed inlet 10a, allowing the water flowing down from the water inlet 10c to form a water curtain that blocks the feed inlet 10a. To ensure that the water flows evenly down from the water inlet 10c, the water storage chamber 11 is provided with a guide member to guide the water flowing in from the water inlet hole 11a to the water inlet 10c. Figure 4 As shown, the flow guide includes two guide plates 13, which are V-shaped and extend obliquely forward, backward, and to the right from the center of the water storage chamber 11. At least two groups of two V-shaped guide plates 13 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction. The right ends of the guide plates 13 in each group are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the feed inlet 10a. The aforementioned water inlet pipe 8 is used to connect an external water source with the water inlet 11a.

The grinding element 2 can work under the drive of the drive mechanism 3 to grind the kitchen waste entering from the feed inlet 10a. In this embodiment, the grinding element 2 is a conventional grinding disc structure. The drive mechanism 3 is a conventional motor, which is located below the grinding chamber 10, and the motor shaft extends upward and into the grinding chamber 10, and is connected to the center of the grinding element 2. It is used to drive the grinding element 2 to rotate circumferentially and grind the kitchen waste entering from the feed inlet 10a.

[0045] The electronic control component 6 is existing technology; it is electrically connected to the drive mechanism 3 and used to control the operation of the drive mechanism 3. The electronic control component 6 and the housing 1 are arranged side-by-side in a horizontal direction. In this embodiment, the heat generated by the electronic control component 6 during operation can be transferred to the water inlet pipe 8 through the heat-conducting element 7 to heat the water source within the water inlet pipe 8. Specifically, the heat-conducting element 7 is attached to the outside of the electronic control component 6, and a portion of the wall of the water inlet pipe 8 has a heat-conducting structure and contacts the heat-conducting element 7 in a meandering manner, thereby effectively heating the water source within the water inlet pipe 8.
