Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food waste conveying technology, specifically a food waste conveying device. Background Technology
[0002] When processing kitchen waste, the kitchen waste collected from the garbage truck is usually poured into the draining equipment, and then transported to the sorting or air separator by the U-shaped shaftless screw conveyor. Subsequently, the processes of crushing, high-pressure washing, dehydration, and fermentation are gradually completed. The U-shaped shaftless screw conveyor is the core equipment for the processing and transportation of kitchen waste.
[0003] The U-shaped shaftless screw conveyor includes a drive motor, shaftless screw conveying blades, and a filter screen structure. When kitchen waste enters the conveyor from the inlet, it is conveyed by the shaftless screw conveying blades and discharged from the outlet into the corresponding equipment. During the conveying process of kitchen waste, the waste will pass through a U-shaped filter screen, which can drain the water and oil mixture in the kitchen waste, further reducing the water and oil content in the kitchen waste.
[0004] As can be seen from the above, the existing U-shaped shaftless screw conveyor equipment still has the following defects: the U-shaped filter screen will become clogged after a period of use and needs to be disassembled and cleaned. The existing filter screen is fixed to the housing by bolts on both sides, which makes disassembly inconvenient during cleaning. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a kitchen waste conveying device that makes the filter screen easy and convenient to disassemble.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a kitchen waste conveying device, comprising a shaftless screw conveyor, a housing, and a filter screen, wherein the filter screen is composed of a first half-screen and a second half-screen, the first half-screen and the second half-screen are symmetrically arranged, and multiple fixing plates are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both the first half-screen and the second half-screen, the fixing plates are rotatably connected to the outer wall of the housing, and the outer walls of the first half-screen and the second half-screen are connected to a support structure for limiting movement.
[0007] Furthermore, the support structure includes two arc-shaped support plates, each with a U-shaped slider fixedly connected to its top, and L-shaped rods connected to both sides of the outer wall of the housing, with the U-shaped sliders slidably connected to the L-shaped rods.
[0008] Furthermore, mounting rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the housing. Slots are provided in the mounting rods, and insert plates that are rotatably connected to the fixing plates are inserted into the slots. L-shaped rods are fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting rods, and snap-fit components for limiting the insert plates are connected to the outside of the mounting rods.
[0009] Furthermore, the snap-fit component includes an L-shaped plug plate, which is rotatably connected to the mounting rod and is plugged into the plug plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer walls of the U-shaped sliders at the top of the two arc-shaped support plates are provided with limiting plates, which are rotatably connected to the corresponding L-shaped plug plates, and the outer walls of the limiting plates abut against the outer walls of the U-shaped sliders.
[0011] Furthermore, an extension plate is fixedly connected to the end of the first half-net away from the fixed plate, and a stepped groove corresponding to the extension plate is fixedly connected to the end of the second half-net.
[0012] Furthermore, the top two sides of the insert plate are chamfered.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] This invention splits the original U-shaped filter into two halves, and rotates the fixed plate and the outer wall of the housing, so that when cleaning the filter, you only need to rotate and open the two halves to easily clean the inner wall of the filter. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a kitchen waste conveying device includes a shaftless screw conveyor 1, a housing 2, and a filter screen 3. The filter screen 3 is composed of a first half-net 31 and a second half-net 32, which are symmetrically arranged. Multiple fixing plates 8 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32. The fixing plates 8 are rotatably connected to the outer wall of the housing 2. Support structures for limiting the movement are connected to the outer walls of the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, when the kitchen waste conveying equipment of this utility model needs to be cleaned, the support structure only needs to be opened, so that the first half net 31 and the second half net 32 are unrestrained. After the first half net 31 and the second half net 32 lose the support of the support structure, they will unfold on their own under the action of gravity, and then people can easily clean them.
[0024] By splitting the original U-shaped filter screen 3 into two halves and rotating it with the fixing plate 8 and the outer wall of the housing 2, the inner wall of the filter screen 3 can be easily cleaned by simply rotating and opening the two halves.
[0025] It is worth noting that a receiving box or similar structure should be provided below filter screen 3 to receive the oil-water mixture. However, since this solution only optimizes and improves filter screen 3, the receiving box for receiving the filtered oil-water mixture is not shown.
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the support structure includes two arc-shaped support plates 6, and a U-shaped slider 61 is fixedly connected to the top of each arc-shaped support plate 6. L-shaped rods 5 are connected to both sides of the outer wall of the housing 2, and the U-shaped slider 61 is slidably connected to the L-shaped rods 5.
[0027] Specifically, when it is necessary to open the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32, the slidable arc-shaped support plate 6 can be used to slide the U-shaped slider 61 at the top of the two arc-shaped support plates 6 into the L-shaped rod 5 and gradually separate from the two half-nets, so that the half-nets can be unrestricted.
[0028] When it is necessary to merge the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32, the two half-nets are rotated and merged, and then the arc-shaped support plate 6 is slid to support the outside of the two half-nets smoothly, ensuring the stability of the two half-nets when they are merged.
[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, mounting rods 4 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the housing 2. Slots 41 are provided in the mounting rods 4. Insert plates 7 that are rotatably connected to the fixing plate 8 are inserted into the slots 41. L-shaped rods 5 are fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting rods 4. A snap-fit component for limiting the insert plates 7 is connected to the outside of the mounting rods 4.
[0030] Specifically, when it is necessary to remove the filter screen 3 from the bottom of the housing 2, the arc-shaped support plate 6 needs to be opened first to open the two half-screens, and then the snap fasteners need to be opened to remove the restriction of each insert plate 7. Pull the first half-screen 31 and the second half-screen 32 to drive the insert plate 7 at the top of the fixing plate 8 to disengage from the slot 41 in the mounting rod 4, so that the two half-screens can be separated from the housing 2.
[0031] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the snap-fit component includes an L-shaped plug plate 9, which is rotatably connected to the mounting rod 4, and the L-shaped plug plate 9 is plugged into the plug plate 7.
[0032] Specifically, in order to ensure the stability of the insert plate 7 within the slot 41, after the insert plate 7 is inserted into the slot 41, the L-shaped insert plate 9 is directly rotated to insert it into the insert plate 7. Since the insert plate 7 is subjected to the downward gravity of the half-net, and the L-shaped insert plate 9 rotates laterally, the stability of the insert plate 7 can be ensured. Furthermore, the rotating shaft of the L-shaped insert plate 9 and the mounting rod 4 have large damping, and will not easily rotate without human intervention.
[0033] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the outer walls of the U-shaped sliders 61 at the top of the two arc-shaped support plates 6 are each provided with a limiting plate 91. The limiting plate 91 is rotatably connected to the corresponding L-shaped plug plate 9, and the outer wall of the limiting plate 91 abuts against the outer wall of the U-shaped slider 61. The limiting plate 91 rotates along the axis of the L-shaped rod 5.
[0034] Specifically, after the L-shaped plug-in plate 9 is plugged in, that is, both the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32 are fixed on the housing 2, the slidable arc-shaped support plate 6 is moved so that the inner wall of the arc-shaped support plate 6 abuts against the bottom surface of the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32, limiting the two half-nets. Then, the limiting plate 91 on the outer wall of the L-shaped plug-in plate 9 can be rotated so that the U-shaped slider 61 can be limited after rotation, preventing the arc-shaped support plate 6 from sliding due to vibration during the operation of the equipment, thereby causing the arc-shaped support plate 6 to detach from the two half-nets and lose its supporting function.
[0035] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first half-net 31 is fixedly connected to an extension plate 33 at the end away from the fixed plate 8, and the second half-net 32 is fixedly connected to a stepped groove 34 corresponding to the extension plate 33 at the end.
[0036] Specifically, when the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32 rotate and merge, the extension plate 33 can be engaged with the stepped groove 34. This arrangement makes the first half-net 31 and the second half-net 32 more stable after merging, while preventing kitchen waste from being directly exposed from the gap between the two half-nets.
[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, the top two sides of the insert plate 7 are chamfered. The chamfered insert plate 7 serves as a guide when it is inserted into the slot 41.
[0038] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
