Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of composting bin technology, specifically an organic composting bin. Background Technology

[0002] Composting equipment is a reactor device used for aerobic fermentation treatment of organic waste. The core types include vertical composting boxes, horizontal composting fermentation drums, silo-type composting fermentation chambers, and box-type composting fermentation pools. According to the airtightness, it can be divided into closed, semi-closed, and open devices. Its working principle is to achieve harmless treatment by generating high temperature through microbial decomposition of organic matter. The moisture content of the material needs to be adjusted to 45%-65%, and the fermentation temperature must reach above 55℃ and be maintained for at least 5 days.

[0003] Existing organic compost bins mostly employ a standard natural ventilation design, relying solely on fixed holes or simple slits in the bin walls for air circulation. This fails to dynamically adjust ventilation based on the humidity, temperature, and fermentation stage of the compost material. When humidity is too high, insufficient ventilation can lead to internal oxygen deficiency, resulting in odors and spoilage; conversely, excessive ventilation during dry seasons or high-temperature periods can cause moisture and heat loss, inhibiting microbial activity and impacting composting efficiency. Maintaining an ideal aerobic environment during composting is difficult, leading to long composting cycles and poor stability. Therefore, improvements to organic compost bins are necessary.

[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an organic composting bin, including a bin assembly 1, the bin assembly 1 including a bin shell 101, and a top cover 102 installed on the top of the bin shell 101, a bin door 2 installed on the front of the bin assembly 1, a controller 3 installed on the outer wall of the bin assembly 1, and a temperature, humidity and oxygen sensor 4 installed on the inner wall of the bin assembly 1, a ventilation plate 103 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bin shell 101, and a ventilation hole 104 through one side of the ventilation plate 103, mounting frame assemblies 5 installed on both sides of the bin assembly 1, and a dustproof plate 6 installed on the inner wall of the mounting frame assemblies 5, the mounting frame assemblies 5 including a frame 501, and a scale 502 installed on the outer wall of the frame 501, and a sliding groove 503 opened on the inner wall of the frame 501. The sliding groove 503 provides a precise guide path for the slider 803 of the adjusting plate 801, ensuring that the adjusting plate 801 moves smoothly and linearly in the horizontal direction, avoiding deviation or jamming; A drive mechanism assembly 7 is installed on one side of the dustproof plate 6. The drive mechanism assembly 7 includes a motor 701. The output shaft of the motor 701 is connected to a transmission rod 702 via a coupling. A limit frame 703 is connected to the outer wall bearing of the transmission rod 702. The other end of the limit frame 703 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the frame 501. The limit frame 703 effectively enhances the support rigidity and coaxiality of the transmission rod 702 during rotation, prevents vibration or deflection caused by excessive cantilever length, improves transmission stability, and the outer wall of the transmission rod 702... A gear 704 is fixedly connected to the wall, and a rack 705 is meshed with the outer wall of the gear 704. A connecting frame 706 is fixedly connected to one side of the rack 705. The gear 704 rotates with the motor 701 through the transmission rod 702, and the rack 705 moves laterally through the gear 704. The adjusting plate 801 moves synchronously with the rack 705 through the connecting frame 706. Through the gear 704 and rack 705, the ventilation adjustment is automated and precisely controlled. With the help of the sensor and controller 3, intelligent ventilation management is achieved. An adjustment plate assembly 8 is fixedly connected to the other side of the connecting frame 706. The adjustment plate assembly 8 includes an adjustment plate 801, and a second ventilation hole 802 is provided through one side of the adjustment plate 801. There are several second ventilation holes 802. The ventilation area can be adjusted in stages or continuously through the second ventilation holes 802. Slider 803 is fixedly connected to both ends of the adjustment plate 801, and the slider 803 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 503. The outer wall of the slider 803 matches the shape and size of the inner wall of the slide groove 503. The slider 803 restricts the degree of freedom of the adjustment plate 801 during movement, preventing it from jumping up and down or shifting laterally. 804 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjustment plate 801, and 804 moves synchronously with the adjustment plate 801. 804 is adjusted along the scale 502. The scale 502 provides visual feedback on the ventilation opening, allowing users to understand the current ventilation status without opening the enclosure, facilitating manual calibration and troubleshooting.

[0017] The specific implementation method is as follows: When the composting bin of this machine is working, the temperature, humidity and oxygen concentration inside the bin assembly 1 are first monitored in real time by the temperature, humidity and oxygen sensor 4, and the data is transmitted to the controller 3. The controller 3 determines the ventilation volume required for the current composting stage according to the preset program, and then controls the motor 701 in the drive mechanism assembly 7 to start. The output shaft of the motor 701 drives the transmission rod 702 to rotate through the coupling. The gear 704 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 702 rotates accordingly. Through the meshing relationship between the gear 704 and the rack 705, the rotational motion is converted into the transverse linear motion of the rack 705. The rack 705 drives the adjustment plate 801 in the adjustment plate assembly 8 to move synchronously through the connecting frame 706, thereby adjusting the ventilation state. Furthermore, sliders 803 are fixedly connected to both ends of the adjusting plate 801. The sliders 803 are embedded in the grooves 503 opened in the inner wall of the frame 501 in the mounting frame assembly 5, forming a stable sliding guide structure to ensure that the adjusting plate 801 does not deviate or get stuck during the movement. At the same time, the outer wall of the transmission rod 702 is supported by a bearing through a limiting frame 703. One end of the limiting frame 703 is connected to the transmission rod 702, and the other end is fixed to the inner top wall of the frame 501, which improves the rigidity and stability of the transmission system and ensures that the gear 704 and the rack 705 continuously and smoothly mesh. Furthermore, when the adjusting plate 801 moves laterally under the drive of the toothed rod 705, the second ventilation hole 802 on it gradually overlaps or offsets with the ventilation hole 104 on the ventilation plate 103 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the box shell 101, so as to realize the continuous adjustment of the ventilation area. When the two sets of holes completely overlap, the ventilation volume is the largest, which is suitable for situations where the oxygen demand is high during the high-temperature fermentation period of composting. When the two sets of holes are completely offset, the ventilation is closed, which is suitable for the heat preservation and water retention stage. In this way, the system can automatically adjust the oxygen supply according to the composting process, optimize the microbial activity environment, and improve the fermentation efficiency. Furthermore, during the adjustment process, the pointer 804 fixedly connected to one side of the adjustment plate 801 moves synchronously and indicates the current ventilation opening and closing degree on the scale 502 set on the outer wall of the mounting frame 5, realizing visual adjustment and making it easy for users to intuitively grasp the ventilation status; at the same time, the dustproof plate 6 is set above the slide 503, covering the area of ​​moving parts, effectively preventing dust, water vapor and organic debris generated during the composting process from entering, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the entire ventilation adjustment system, while the top cover 102 and the box door 2 ensure the sealing of the box, maintaining the stability of the internal environment while adjusting the ventilation, and finally realizing an intelligent, efficient and low-maintenance organic composting process.
