Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste treatment technology, and in particular to a kitchen waste treatment machine that is easy to maintain. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards and the enhancement of environmental awareness, food waste disposers, as kitchen appliances that can effectively reduce and harmlessly treat food waste at the source, are gradually entering more and more homes and commercial venues.

[0003] Existing food waste disposers typically employ a highly sealed, one-piece casing to prevent odors and wastewater leakage during operation. While this design provides excellent sealing and safety during normal operation, its inherent limitations become apparent when internal blockages occur, mechanical parts wear down, or deep cleaning is required. Users often need specialized tools like screwdrivers to remove multiple screws to open the casing, a cumbersome process that is difficult for ordinary users lacking technical expertise, frequently necessitating assistance from after-sales personnel. This undoubtedly increases maintenance time and costs.

[0004] Furthermore, the existing waste disposal machine's top cover has design inconveniences in daily waste disposal scenarios. Users typically need to directly touch and lift the cover with their hands. Since the inside of the cover is in constant contact with the food waste inside the machine, it inevitably accumulates oil and residue, leading to an unhygienic experience for users who touch it directly.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model proposes a kitchen waste disposal machine that is easy to maintain in order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the problems existing in the technology of food waste disposers, such as the body usually being a sealed structure, internal maintenance requiring tools and disassembly, the process being cumbersome, and the top cover being inconvenient to open and easy to come into contact with dirt when disposing of daily garbage, this utility model aims to provide a food waste disposer with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems and is easy to maintain.

[0007] This utility model provides a kitchen waste disposal machine that is easy to maintain, including a disposal machine and a maintenance mechanism disposed on the front side of the disposal machine.

[0008] The maintenance mechanism includes a sealing plate, a concave block, and a rotation limit handle.

[0009] Furthermore, the sealing plate is movably connected to the processing machine via a hinge, the concave block is fixed to the processing machine, and the rotating limit handle can be movably installed on the sealing plate and can be detachably snapped into the concave block. This combination method enables the sealing plate to be locked and unlocked.

[0010] Preferably, the maintenance mechanism further includes a rotating plate and a connecting plate, and the rotation limit handle is connected to the sealing plate through the rotating plate and the connecting plate.

[0011] Preferably, the maintenance mechanism also includes an odor-proof cover and a magnetic block, the odor-proof cover being detachably covered on the outside of the sealing plate and being magnetically attached to the front of the processing machine by the magnetic block.

[0012] Preferably, the easy-to-maintain food waste processor also includes a top cover and a clamping mechanism, both of which are located on the top of the processor.

[0013] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a pin fixed to the upper cover plate, a push button, a push rod linked to the push button, a support block and a push block linked to the push rod, and a clamp driven by the push block, the clamp being used to selectively clamp or release the pin.

[0014] Preferably, the clamping mechanism further includes a rotating column, which is driven when the push block slides, and the rotating column pushes the outside of the clamp to expand to release the pin.

[0015] Preferably, a spring is also connected between the processing machine and the top cover plate. The spring is used to automatically spring the top cover plate upward when the clamping mechanism releases the top cover plate.

[0016] Preferably, the easy-to-maintain food waste disposer also includes a rotating buckle, which is pivotally connected to the disposer and is used to hold the upper cover plate in place when the upper cover plate is closed.

[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This utility model, by setting up an independent maintenance mechanism, includes a sealing plate that can be opened by rotating around the hinge, as well as a rotation limit handle and a concave block locking structure that can be operated without tools. This solves the problem that existing kitchen waste disposal machines are usually integrally sealed structures, making it difficult for users to open and repair them when internal malfunctions occur, and making maintenance inconvenient. It achieves the beneficial effects of simplifying the maintenance process, facilitating users to quickly clean and repair the inside of the equipment, thereby extending the service life of the equipment.

[0019] 2. This utility model, by setting up a clamping mechanism and a spring in linkage, allows users to unlock the top cover simply by pushing the push button, and the spring will automatically pop the top cover open. This solves the problems of the prior art, such as the need to manually lift the top cover when opening it, easy contact with oil stains and garbage residue on the inside of the cover, and lack of hygiene. It achieves the beneficial effects of improving the convenience and hygiene of daily garbage disposal operations and improving the user experience.

[0020] 3. This utility model solves the problem that the traditional single opening method cannot take into account both daily convenience and in-depth maintenance needs by designing the clamping mechanism used in daily use and the maintenance mechanism used for inspection and repair in a functional partitioned design, and by adding a magnetic odor-proof cover to the maintenance mechanism. It achieves the beneficial effect of reasonable overall structure, clear function, and while ensuring the sealing of daily use, it also takes into account the maintainability under special circumstances, making the design more comprehensive.

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0026] Example:

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 2This utility model provides a kitchen waste disposal machine that is easy to maintain, which aims to solve the problems of difficult internal structure maintenance and inconvenient daily opening of the top cover, which makes it easy to come into contact with dirt.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the easy-to-maintain food waste disposal machine includes a processing machine 1, which serves as the main installation body and basic frame of the entire device. The top of the processing machine 1 is equipped with an upper cover 208 for daily waste disposal and a clamping mechanism 2 for controlling the opening and closing of the upper cover 208. The front side of the processing machine 1 is equipped with a maintenance mechanism 3 for internal inspection and maintenance, which controls the opening and closing of the sealing plate 301.

[0029] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the core of the technical solution of this embodiment lies in the specific structure of the maintenance mechanism 3, which locks and unlocks the sealing plate 301 by cooperating with the rotating limit handle 302 and the concave block 303.

[0030] Please refer to the following carefully. Figures 1 to 2 The structure of the maintenance mechanism 3 will be described in detail below:

[0031] Maintenance mechanism 3 includes a sealing plate 301, a rotation limit handle 302, a concave block 303, a rotating plate 304, and a hinge plate 305. One side of the sealing plate 301 is rotatably connected to the processing machine 1 via a hinge. The concave block 303 is fixedly connected to the processing machine 1. The rotation limit handle 302 is connected to the sealing plate 301 via the rotating plate 304 and the hinge plate 305. The rotation limit handle 302 is configured to be able to be inserted into or detached from the concave block 303. When the rotation limit handle 302 is inserted into the concave block 303, the sealing plate 301 is locked and closed. When the rotating limit handle 302 disengages from the concave block 303, the sealing plate 301 is unlocked. At this time, the sealing plate 301 can be rotated and opened around the hinge connecting it to the processing machine 1. This structure enables quick tool-free opening of the internal inspection port of the processing machine 1. In order to further improve the sealing and aesthetics, the maintenance mechanism 3 also includes an odor-proof cover 306 and a magnetic block 307. The odor-proof cover 306 covers the outside of the sealing plate 301 and is detachably attracted and fixed to the front of the processing machine 1 by the magnetic block 307 set between it and the processing machine 1.

[0032] Based on the above embodiments, the present invention may further include the following preferred technical solutions:

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The easy-to-maintain food waste disposer also includes a clamping mechanism 2, which is located on the top of the disposer 1 and is used to control the opening and locking of the upper cover 208. Specifically, the clamping mechanism 2 includes a push button 201, a push rod 202, a support block 203, a push block 204, a clamp 205, a rotating column 210, and a pin 209 fixedly connected to the upper cover 208. The push button 201 is fixedly connected to the push rod 202. The push rod 202 is fixedly connected to the support block 203 and the push block 204, which slide together. The push block 204 is drivenly connected to the rotating column 210. The rotating column 210 is then drivenly connected to the clamp 205. The clamp 205 is configured to be able to open and close to clamp or release the pin 209.

[0034] As a further preferred embodiment, in order to enable the automatic opening of the upper cover 208, a spring 206 is rotatably connected between the processing machine 1 and the rear side of the upper cover 208.

[0035] As a further preferred option, in order to facilitate the closure of the upper cover 208, the processing machine 1 is also pivotally connected with a rotating buckle 207, which is used to abut against and initially fix the upper cover 208 when rotating downwards.

[0036] Working principle: At the top of the processing machine 1, by moving the push button 201 of the clamping mechanism 2 to the left, the push rod 202 drives the push block 204 and the bearing block 203 to slide to the left, pushing the rotating column 210 on the front and rear sides to expand the clamp 205 on the front and rear sides, thereby releasing the pin 209 clamped on the left side, and the upper cover 208 can be lifted up. The springs 206 on the rear left and right sides will rebound, causing the front side of the upper cover 208 to be opened, so that the user does not directly contact the bottom surface of the upper cover 208 and avoid contact with dirt. After completion, the upper cover 208 is covered, the rotating buckle 207 is pressed down, and the push button 201 is moved to clamp and fix it, making it convenient for the user to use.

[0037] When internal maintenance is required, open the odor-proof cover 306 in the maintenance mechanism 3, remove the magnetic block 307 from the front of the processing machine 1, push the hinge 305 downward, and the rotating plate 304 will rotate to a straightened state. Rotate the knob on the outer wall of the rotation limit handle 302 to pull it out from the concave block 303. Rotate the limit handle 302 outward to allow the sealing plate 301 to rotate around the right hinge, which facilitates the user's maintenance of the internal structure and improves durability.
