Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen waste sorting, specifically a kitchen waste sorting and pulping machine. Background Technology
[0002] Food waste contains both organic and inorganic waste. Organic waste can be made into animal feed after being pulped and dried, while inorganic waste can be recycled for incineration and power generation. In existing technologies, pulping machines generally use high-speed rotating hammers to crush and pulp food waste.
[0003] Before pulping, organic and inorganic waste in kitchen waste needs to be separated. In existing technology, the separation is generally carried out by rotating drum. In order to ensure that inorganic waste is output after separation, the inner wall of the rotating drum is usually designed with a spiral auger. During the rotation of the spiral auger, the kitchen waste is pushed towards the inorganic discharge port. However, in order to avoid the inorganic waste being pushed out as little organic waste as possible, this method will make the rotating drum longer, thus occupying a large space. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a kitchen waste sorting and pulping machine in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a kitchen waste sorting and pulping machine, comprising a shell, a rotating cylinder rotatably mounted on the inner circumference of the shell via bearings, one end of the rotating cylinder having an open structure, an end shell integrally formed at one end of the shell located at the open position of the rotating cylinder, an inorganic discharge port fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the end shell, a feed pipe rotatably mounted at the center of the closed end of the rotating cylinder, a feed hopper integrally formed at the top of the feed pipe, a discharge mechanism extending into the inner cavity of the rotating cylinder and connected to the inner wall of the output end of the feed pipe being installed on the outside of the end shell, and a conveying mechanism being installed at the bottom end of the shell.
[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the discharge mechanism includes a fixed bracket integrally formed on the inner wall of the output end of the feed pipe, and an air pipe is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixed bracket. The air pipe passes through the inner cavity of the rotating cylinder and extends to the outside of the end shell.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the discharge mechanism further includes multiple sets of output pipes integrally formed on the outer periphery of the trachea, the multiple sets of output pipes are equidistantly distributed in the axial direction, each set of output pipes includes four air blowing pipes, the tail end of the air blowing pipe is bent in an inclined state, and the tail end of the air blowing pipe is bent towards the end shell, and an air blowing nozzle is installed at the tail end output end of the air blowing pipe.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the conveying mechanism includes a bottom shell integrally formed below the outer periphery of the outer shell, the vertical cross section of the bottom shell is U-shaped, the inner walls of the bottom shell are rotatably mounted with spiral conveying rods at both ends, a rotary motor is installed at one end of the bottom shell, the output shaft of the rotary motor is coaxially and fixedly connected with the shaft of the spiral conveying rod, and an organic discharge shell protruding downwards is integrally formed below one end of the outer wall of the bottom shell.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: the interior of the rotating cylinder is formed with sieve holes for organic residue to fall through, and a toothed ring is fixedly installed at the closed end of the rotating cylinder.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1.

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0014] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment of the utility model, a kitchen waste sorting and pulping machine includes a shell 1. A rotating cylinder 9 is rotatably mounted on the inner circumference of the shell 1 via a bearing. One end of the rotating cylinder 9 has an open structure. An end shell 2 is integrally formed at the open position of the rotating cylinder 9 at one end of the shell 1. An inorganic discharge port 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the end shell 2. A feed pipe 7 is rotatably mounted at the center of the closed end of the rotating cylinder 9. A feed hopper 8 is integrally formed at the top of the feed pipe 7. A discharge mechanism that extends into the inner cavity of the rotating cylinder 9 and is connected to the inner wall of the output end of the feed pipe 7 is installed on the outside of the end shell 2. A conveying mechanism is installed at the bottom end of the shell 1. A screen hole 12 for organic residue to fall is formed inside the rotating cylinder 9. A toothed ring 16 is fixedly installed at the closed end of the rotating cylinder 9.
[0015] In this embodiment: First, the broken-up kitchen waste is poured into the feed hopper 8. Since the organic residue in the kitchen waste is relatively soft, it is easily impacted and formed into smaller particles during the breaking-up process. However, inorganic waste such as garbage bags and chopsticks cannot be effectively broken during the impact. The kitchen waste falls into the rotating drum 9 through the feed pipe 7 at the bottom of the feed hopper 8. The rotating drum 9 is driven to rotate by activating the drive device (e.g., a drive motor, which drives the gear installed at its output end to rotate). The gear of the drive device meshes with the gear ring 16, and the gear ring 16 drives the rotating drum 9 to rotate. When the rotating drum 9 rotates, it drives the kitchen waste inside to rotate. During the rotation, the organic waste in the kitchen waste falls into the conveying mechanism. After screening, the discharge mechanism is activated, and the discharge mechanism transports the inorganic waste intercepted by the rotating drum 9 into the end shell 2, and then discharges it outward from the inorganic discharge port 3.
[0016] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The discharge mechanism includes a fixed bracket 15 integrally formed on the inner wall of the output end of the feed pipe 7. An air pipe 10 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixed bracket 15. The air pipe 10 passes through the inner cavity of the rotating cylinder 9 and extends to the outside of the end shell 2. The discharge mechanism also includes multiple sets of output pipes integrally formed on the outer periphery of the air pipe 10. The multiple sets of output pipes are equidistantly distributed in the axial direction. Each set of output pipes includes four air blowing pipes 13. The tail end of the air blowing pipe 13 is bent in an inclined state and bends towards the end shell 2. An air blowing nozzle 14 is installed at the output end of the tail end of the air blowing pipe 13.
[0017] In this embodiment: by starting the air pump, the air pump compresses the air and inputs it into the air pipe 10. The air pipe 10 guides the compressed air into the air blowing pipe 13, and then from the air blowing pipe 13 into the air blowing nozzle 14. Finally, it is blown out from the air blowing nozzle 14. Since the tail end of the air blowing pipe 13 has an inclined bending structure, the compressed air blown out extends along the inclined bending direction of the air blowing pipe 13. With the rotation of the rotating cylinder 9, the intercepted inorganic matter can be blown out, so that it enters the end shell 2 and is discharged out from the inorganic discharge port 3. During the above process, high-pressure compressed air cleans the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 9, reducing the residue of debris and thus preventing blockages.
[0018] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 2 The conveying mechanism includes a bottom shell 4 integrally formed below the outer periphery of the outer shell 1. The vertical cross section of the bottom shell 4 has a "U" shaped structure. The inner walls of the bottom shell 4 are rotatably mounted with screw conveyor rods 11. A rotary motor 6 is installed at one end of the bottom shell 4. The output shaft of the rotary motor 6 is coaxially and fixedly connected with the shaft of the screw conveyor rod 11. An organic discharge shell 5 protruding downward is integrally formed below one end of the outer wall of the bottom shell 4.
[0019] In this embodiment: During the rotation of the rotating drum 9, organic waste falls through the screen holes 12 and enters the interior of the bottom shell 4. At this time, the rotating motor 6 is started, and the rotating motor 6 drives the screw conveyor 11 to rotate. The rotating screw conveyor 11 transports the organic kitchen waste towards the organic discharge shell 5, and then feeds it into the pulping machine through the organic discharge shell 5 for pulping.
[0020] 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 technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
