Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a food waste processor, and more specifically, to a microbial liquid fermentation type food waste processor that supplies food into a decomposition treatment device to liquid ferment the food with aerobic microorganisms, and supplies water into the decomposition treatment device through a washing pipe to wash the internal space of the decomposition treatment device so that the liquid fermented material and foreign substances remaining inside the decomposition treatment device are discharged to the outside of the decomposition treatment device. Background Technology
[0002] Generally, among household waste, food waste is disposed of by disposing of it in designated areas because leaving it in the house for a long time leads to the proliferation of pests and degrades the indoor environment.
[0003] At this time, due to the inconvenience of repeatedly disposing of such food waste in designated places, devices are being developed to dry food waste at home or to ferment food waste by installing it in the sink.
[0004] Patent Document 1 describes a conventional automatic microorganism input device for a food waste processor. Referring thereto, the device comprises a fermentation tank for receiving food waste, a stirring blade installed to rotate through the fermentation tank, an odor sensor installed at the top of the fermentation tank to measure the odor concentration generated from the food waste, a lid that covers and seals the top of the fermentation tank while forming a microorganism storage container on the inside, and an air supply pipe formed on one side of the fermentation tank to guide air to be supplied into the fermentation tank.
[0005] Here, the stirring blade receives power from a motor installed inside the main body through a power transmission member and rotates to stir the food waste contained in the fermentation tank.
[0006] In addition, the air supply pipe is connected at its other end to a water storage tank that holds water, and by continuously moving water to the shower head through the water guide pipe using a pump installed in the water storage tank, the water falls directly downward from the shower head, forming an air layer in the water filled in the water storage tank, and at this time, the air layer is supplied into the fermentation tank through the air guide pipe.
[0007] In other words, when food waste is fermented with microorganisms inside the fermentation tank, an odor is generated from the food waste. At this time, the concentration of this odor is measured by an odor sensor, and if it exceeds a predetermined concentration, the shut-off valve of the microorganism storage tank is opened.
[0008] Then, as the outlet fan rotates, the microorganisms contained in the microorganism storage tank are forcibly injected into the fermentation tank through the outlet, and accordingly, a predetermined amount of microorganisms is supplied into the fermentation tank.
[0009] However, the above-mentioned patent document 1 has the following problems: food or food waste fermented by microorganisms in the fermentation tank remains in the fermentation tank, and odors are generated in the fermentation tank due to the food waste remaining in the fermentation tank; furthermore, odors continuously leak out of the fermentation tank, contaminating the air around the fermentation tank and resulting in poor hygiene; there is a risk of bacteria multiplying in the fermentation tank due to the difficulty of cleaning the inside of the fermentation tank, and there is a risk that microorganisms in the fermentation tank will die due to this bacterial multiplication; and due to the overloading of food waste fed into the fermentation tank, the fermentation treatment of food waste cannot be carried out, and the food waste remains in an overloaded state in the fermentation tank continuously, and consequently, the fermentation function of food waste cannot be performed at all, resulting in a decrease in product reliability.

A first shut-off valve is formed between the grinding device, the washing pipe, and the drain pipe to selectively open the washing pipe or the drain pipe. A second shut-off valve is installed between the grinding device and the grinding material input pipe to operate as an opening and closing valve.

Specific details for implementing the invention
[0026] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the attached drawings.
[0027] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 7, the crushing device (100) is in the shape of a tubular body and simultaneously receives food and water into its interior, and discharges the water to the outside, while crushing the food and discharging it to the outside.
[0028] The grinding device (100) is preferably installed inside a sink (not shown) to receive water and food simultaneously.
[0029] The above grinding device (100) grinds food and discharges the ground food through the above grinding material input pipe (300).
[0030] The grinding device (100) comprises a main body (110) having a hollow shape with an input port (111) formed at the top, a first discharge port (112) formed on the outer surface connected to the drain pipe (500) to discharge water into the drain pipe (500), and a second discharge port (113) formed below the first discharge port (112) to discharge ground food in the direction of the ground food input pipe (300); a motor (120) installed at the inner lower part of the main body (110) and driven to rotate; and a plurality of grinding blades (130) formed at a predetermined interval in an annular shape at the top of the motor (120) to grind food introduced into the main body (110) while rotating by the motor (120).
[0031] The above-mentioned inlet (111) guides water to flow down in a cyclone manner, thereby guiding water to be discharged into the drain pipe (500) through the above-mentioned first outlet (112).
[0032] The grinding device (100) further forms a reed switch (111a) connected to the motor (120) on the upper surface of the rim of the input port (111) of the main body (110) to control the operation of the motor (120) that rotates the grinding blade (130).
[0033] When the above reed switch (111a) is pressed, it determines that food has been supplied into the main body (110) and operates the motor (120), and when the press is released, it determines that food has not been supplied into the main body (110) and stops the operation of the motor (120).
[0034] The grinding device (100) is coupled to the input port (111) and allows water to pass through the input port (111) as is, while blocking the entry of the user's hand to prevent the user's hand from reaching the grinding blade (130), and further forms a closing lid (140) that operates the reed switch (111a) by pressing it.
[0035] The above reed switch (111a) is pressed against the bottom edge of the end cap (140) that is fitted into the input port (111), and transmits the signal to the motor (120), thereby enabling the motor (120) to operate.
[0036] The above-mentioned end cap (140) has a plurality of through holes (not shown) formed on its upper surface, allowing water to be supplied to the inlet of the main body (100).
[0037] The first discharge port (112) is connected to the washing pipe (400) or the drain pipe (500) by the first opening / closing valve (600) and discharges water in the direction of the washing pipe (400) or the drain pipe (500).
[0038] The main body (110) is installed at the first discharge port (112) and further forms a mesh screen (112a) that filters out food contained in water introduced through the inlet port (111) of the main body (110) and blocks the food from moving to the drain pipe (500) or the washing pipe (400).
[0039] The mesh screen (112a) allows water to pass through but blocks food from being discharged through the first outlet (112), thereby preventing water containing food from being discharged to the outside through the washing pipe (400) to the lower space (211) of the decomposition treatment device (200) or through the drain pipe (500).
[0040] The crushing device (100) further forms a contamination concentration sensor (150) on the upper inner surface to measure the contamination concentration of water introduced into the crushing device (100) and to control the first opening / closing valve (600) to selectively open the washing pipe (400) or the drain pipe (500).
[0041] The above pollution concentration sensor (150) detects the turbidity of water introduced into the inlet (111) of the main body (110), and if the turbidity is measured to be relatively higher than the predetermined turbidity, it controls the first opening / closing valve (600) to open the drain pipe (500), and if the turbidity of the water is measured to be lower than the predetermined turbidity, it controls the first opening / closing valve (600) to open the washing pipe (400).
[0042] The second discharge port (113) is connected to the crushed material input pipe (300) and discharges the food crushed within the main body (110) toward the crushed material input pipe (300).
[0043] The second discharge port (113) is opened or closed by the second opening / closing valve (700) to guide food crushed within the main body (110) of the crushing device (200) to move to the decomposition treatment device (200).
[0044] The above motor (120) is operated by user operation or by receiving a signal from the above reed switch (111a).
[0045] The motor (120) is turned OFF by receiving a signal from the overload detection sensor (213) of the disassembly processing device (200).
[0046] The motor (120) rotates the grinding blade (130) while rotating in the forward or reverse direction.
[0047] It is preferable that the grinding blade (130) be formed at the same height as the second discharge port (113) to grind food introduced into the main body (110).
[0048] The decomposition treatment device (200) is provided on one side of the grinding device (100) and allows aerobic microorganisms to inhabit the inside thereof, and receives food ground from the grinding device (100) and ferments the food in liquid form with aerobic microorganisms while stirring.
[0049] The above decomposition treatment device (200) has a hollow shape, a drain hole (211a) formed on one side, and a lower space (211) that allows the washing pipe (400) connected to the grinding device (100) to be connected to the other side opposite to the drain hole (211a), and a housing (210) having an upper space (212) formed to be partitioned above the lower space (212) and containing microorganisms, a filter screen (220) having a plate shape with a plurality of through holes (221) formed on the upper surface to partition the upper space (212) and the lower space (211) of the housing (210), a stirring device (230) rotatably installed in the upper space (212) of the housing (210) based on the filter screen (220) to stir food placed on the filter screen (220), and installed on one side of the housing (210) and connected to the stirring device (230), and It consists of a driving device (240) that rotates and drives the stirring device (230).
[0050] The above housing (210) discharges the discharge water that has fallen into the lower space (211) through the drain (211a).
[0051] The lower space (211) of the housing (210) is connected to the washing pipe (400) and receives water from the washing pipe (400), allowing food waste or wastewater remaining inside to be discharged to the outside of the lower space (211) of the housing (210) through the drain (211a).
[0052] It is preferable that the internal space of the lower space (211) be cleaned by water supplied through the washing pipe (400).
[0053] The drain (211a) of the housing (210) is formed relatively higher than the bottom surface of the lower space (211) of the housing (210), thereby further forming a drain filter (211a-1) that blocks food remaining in the lower space (211) of the housing (210) from being discharged through the drain (211a).
[0054] The above drain (211a) allows the discharged water remaining in the lower space (211) to overflow and be drained into the drain (211a) when it rises to a height relatively higher than the height of the drain (211a).
[0055] The above drain (211a) prevents food submerged in the bottom surface of the lower space (211) of the housing (210) from being discharged through the drain (211a).
[0056] The above drainage filter (211a-1) blocks food waste that is formed to be relatively larger than the size of the hole (not shown) of the drainage filter (211a-1) among the food waste retained in the lower space (211) of the housing (210) from being discharged through the drain (211a).
[0057] The above drainage filter (211a-1) passes food waste that has been crushed by being struck by water flowing into the lower space (211) so that it becomes smaller than the holes (not shown) of the drainage filter (211a-1), thereby retaining food waste that is formed relatively larger than the holes (not shown) of the drainage filter (211a-1) within the lower space (211).
[0058] The above drain (211a) can be connected to a wastewater pipe (not shown) within a residential space by a separate pipe (not shown).
[0059] The above drain filter (211a-1) can be installed so as to be detachably attached to the drain (211a).
[0060] The housing (210) further includes a water level sensor (214) that detects the water level of discharge water or water supplied into the lower space (211) on the inner wall surface of the lower space (211), and controls the operation of the first opening / closing valve (600) to open the drain pipe (500) when the water level rises above a predetermined water level.
[0061] The above water level sensor (214) detects the water level of the discharge water or water rising within the lower space (211) in real time, and when the water level rises above a predetermined level, the drain pipe (500) is opened by the first opening / closing valve (600) so that the water drained through the first discharge port (112) of the main body (110) is discharged to the outside through the drain pipe (500).
[0062] The above housing (210) is formed so that its upper surface can be opened, and a viewing window (215) is formed on the upper surface to allow visual inspection of the internal space of the housing (210).
[0063] The above-mentioned viewing window (215) can be formed on the side of the housing (210) so as to allow checking of the internal space.
[0064] The housing (210) of the above decomposition processing device (200) further forms an overload detection sensor (213) on the inner wall of the upper space (212) of the housing (210) to detect the surface height of food loaded in the upper space (212) of the housing (210), thereby continuously operating the stirring device (230) and turning off the operation of the grinding device (100).
[0065] The overload detection sensor (213) detects the surface height of the food when the surface height of the food rises above a predetermined height and outputs an overload notification signal through the display unit (241) formed on the driving device (240).
[0066] The above decomposition treatment device (200) is connected to the housing (210) and further forms an automatic microorganism injection device (250) that receives a signal from the overload detection sensor (213) and injects a predetermined amount of aerobic microorganisms into the upper space (212) of the housing (210).
[0067] The above-mentioned automatic microorganism input device (250) introduces a predetermined amount of aerobic microorganisms into the housing (210), so that aerobic microorganisms corresponding to the amount of crushed food in the housing (210) inhabit the housing (210).
[0068] The housing (210) is connected to the microorganism input device (250) on its outer surface and further has a microorganism input hole (212a) formed to allow aerobic microorganisms to be introduced into the upper space (212) of the housing (210). The microorganism input hole (212a) is formed through so as to face downwardly inclined, thereby inducing the aerobic microorganisms to fall into the upper space (212) of the housing (210).
[0069] The microorganism input hole (212a) guides aerobic microorganisms to fall into the crushed food within the upper space (212) of the housing (210), thereby mixing with the crushed food within the upper space (212).
[0070] The above housing (210) further forms a microbial carrier (260) filled with aerobic microorganisms in the upper space (212) of the housing (210) partitioned by the filter screen (220).
[0071] The above-mentioned microbial carrier (260) accommodates aerobic microorganisms within it and protects the aerobic microorganisms so that they may inhabit or reproduce.
[0072] The above microbial carriers (260) may be formed in multiple numbers in the upper space (212) of the housing (210).
[0073] The above water level sensor (214) detects the discharge water or water level in the lower space (211) of the housing (210) for a set period of time, and if the water level is maintained above a set level for a set period of time, the first opening / closing valve (600) is controlled to open the washing pipe (400) so that water is supplied to the lower space (211) for a set period of time.
[0074] The water level sensor (214) controls the first opening / closing valve (600) for a set period of time to open the washing pipe (400) and continuously supplies water to the lower space (211), thereby forming water pressure within the lower space (211) so that food waste or water retained within the lower space (211) that has blocked the drain (211a) is forcibly discharged to the drain (211a).
[0075] The stirring device (230) comprises a stirring shaft (231) which is rotatably installed at one end on the inner wall surface of the upper space (212) of the housing (210) and connected to the driving device (240) at the other end, and which is driven by rotation by the driving device (240); and stirring blades (232) which are formed at a predetermined interval on the outer surface of the stirring shaft (231) and are rotated by the stirring shaft (231) to stir the food contained in the upper space (212) of the housing (210).
[0076] It is preferable that the stirring shaft (231) be formed in a bar shape and have a plurality of stirring blades (232) formed on its outer surface.
[0077] The stirring blade (232) is rotated by the stirring shaft (231) to stir the crushed food, thereby ensuring that aerobic microorganisms are evenly stirred in the crushed food.
[0078] The above driving device (240) operates by receiving the signal from the above reed switch (111a), operates at a set time interval, or operates at a time set by the user to rotate the above stirring shaft (231).
[0079] The above driving device (240) forms a display unit (241) on one side thereof and outputs the overload detection sensor (213) signal through the display unit (241) to indicate whether the housing (210) is overloaded.
[0080] The crushed material input pipe (300) is installed to connect the crushing device (100) and the decomposition treatment device (200), and supplies the food crushed in the crushing device (100) to the decomposition treatment device (200).
[0081] The above crushed material input pipe (300) is formed in a tubular shape and causes crushed food discharged through the second discharge port (113) of the crushing device (100) to fall into the housing (210) of the decomposition treatment device (200).
[0082] The above-mentioned crushed material input pipe (300) further forms a U-trap (not shown) that prevents an excessive amount of food from being supplied into the housing (210) at one end, and prevents the odor generated as the crushed food within the housing (210) undergoes liquid fermentation from flowing back into the crushed material input pipe (300).
[0083] The above U-trap (not labeled) guides the food moved to one end of the crushed material input pipe (300) to overflow upward and be discharged.
[0084] The washing pipe (400) is formed to connect the crushing device (100) and the decomposition treatment device (200), and supplies water introduced into the crushing device (100) into the decomposition treatment device (200) to wash the internal space of the decomposition treatment device (200).
[0085] The washing pipe (400) is formed to communicate with the lower space (211) formed in the housing (210) of the decomposition treatment device (200), and supplies water at a predetermined water pressure to the lower space (211).
[0086] The washing pipe (400) supplies water into the lower space (211) and forces food waste or wastewater remaining in the lower space (211) to be discharged to the outside through the drain (211a).
[0087] The above washing pipe (400) is connected to the first discharge port (112) by the first opening / closing valve (600) and receives water discharged through the first discharge port (112).
[0088] The drain pipe (500) is formed to extend from the outer surface of the washing pipe (400) and discharges water introduced into the crushing device (100) to the outside.
[0089] It is preferable that the above drain pipe (500) mixes with the discharge water discharged through the drain (211a) of the above decomposition treatment device (200) and discharges it to the outside.
[0090] The above drain pipe (500) is connected to the first outlet (112) by the first shut-off valve (600) to discharge water discharged through the first outlet (112) to the outside.
[0091] The first shut-off valve (600) is installed to connect the crushing device (100), the washing pipe (400), and the drain pipe (500), and is operated to cross-open the washing pipe (400) or the drain pipe (500) so as to guide the water supplied to the crushed material input pipe to be discharged into the washing pipe (400) or the drain pipe (500).
[0092] The first opening / closing valve (600) allows the crushing device (100) and the washing pipe (400) or the crushing device (100) and the drain pipe (500) to be connected to each other by operation by the user.
[0093] The first shut-off valve (600) receives signals from the water level sensor (214) and the contamination concentration sensor (150) and automatically selects to open the washing pipe (400) or the drain pipe (500).
[0094] When the water level sensor (214) detects discharge water or water above a predetermined level, the first shut-off valve (600) closes the washing pipe (400) and opens the drain pipe (500) so that the water discharged through the first discharge port (112) of the main body (110) is discharged to the outside.
[0095] When the first shut-off valve (600) detects water with a turbidity relatively higher than the turbidity determined by the pollution concentration sensor (150), it closes the washing pipe (400) and opens the drain pipe (500) so that the water discharged through the first outlet (112) of the main body (100) is discharged to the outside.
[0096] The first opening / closing valve (600) is in the shape of a pipe and is installed between the crushing device (100), the washing pipe (400), and the drain pipe (500), and comprises a first vertical pipe body (601) that communicates between the crushing device (100), the drain pipe (500), and the washing pipe (400), a first lifting member (602) installed inside the first vertical pipe body (601) and operating to move up and down, a first sealing packing (603) installed at the bottom of the first lifting member (602) and operated to move up and down by the first lifting member (602) to cross-communicate between the crushing device (100) and the drain pipe (500) or between the crushing device (100) and the washing pipe (400), and is installed on the upper surface of the first vertical pipe body (601) and connected to the first lifting member (602). It consists of a first driving device (604) that operates the first lifting member (602) to lift.
[0097] It is preferable that the first vertical pipe body (601) be formed to surround the washing pipe (400) and the drain pipe (500).
[0098] The first lifting member (602) moves the first sealing packing (603) that seals the washing pipe (400) or the drain pipe (500) while being operated by the first driving device (604).
[0099] The first sealing packing (603) is moved up and down by the first lifting member (602) to be positioned to seal the washing pipe (400) or to seal the drain pipe (500).
[0100] The first driving device (604) receives signals from the water level sensor (214) and the pollution concentration sensor (150) and moves the first lifting member (602) up and down.
[0101] The second shut-off valve (700) is installed between the crushing device (100) and the crushed material input pipe (300) and is operated to open or close the crushed material input pipe (300).
[0102] The second opening / closing valve (700) receives a signal from the reed switch (111a) and opens or closes the space between the second discharge port (113) of the crushing device (100) and the crushed material input pipe (300).
[0103] The second opening / closing valve (700) is in the shape of a pipe and is installed between the crushing device (100) and the crushed material input pipe (300). It comprises a second vertical pipe body (701) that is in communication with the crushing device (100) and the crushed material input pipe (300), a second lifting member (702) installed inside the second vertical pipe body (701) and operated to be raised and lowered, a second sealing packing (703) installed at the bottom of the second lifting member (702) and operated to be raised and lowered by the second lifting member (702) to open or block the space between the crushing device (100) and the crushed material input pipe (300), and a second driving device (704) installed on the upper surface of the second vertical pipe body (701) and connected to the second lifting member (702) to operate the second lifting member (702) to be raised and lowered.
[0104] It is preferable that the second vertical tube (701) be formed in an upright shape.
[0105] The second lifting member (702) moves the second sealing packing (703) up and down to seal or open the space between the crushed material input pipe (300) and the second discharge port (113) of the crushing device (100).
[0106] It is preferable that the second driving device (704) above is operated by receiving the signal from the reed switch (111a).
[0107] The microbial liquid fermentation type food waste treatment device according to the present invention, configured as described above, is used as follows.
[0108] First, water and food that are mixed together are supplied simultaneously into the grinding device (100), and then the top of the grinding device (100) is sealed by covering it with a sealing lid (140).
[0109] Then, food introduced into the main body (110) through the input port (111) of the grinding device (100) falls downward, and water is discharged into the washing pipe (400) through the first discharge port (112) of the main body (110), thereby separating the food and water.
[0110] Then, the reed switch (111a) is pressed by the end cover (140) that covers the input port (111) of the main body (110), and accordingly, the reed switch (111a) transmits a signal to the motor (120), causing the motor (120) to rotate and rotate the grinding blade (130) in the forward or reverse direction.
[0111] At the same time, as the reed switch (111a) is pressed with the end cap (140), the driving device (240) of the disassembly processing device (200) receives the signal from the reed switch (111a) and is driven to rotate the stirring device (230).
[0112] In addition, the second opening / closing valve (700) installed between the second discharge port (113) of the crushing device (100) and the crushed material input pipe (300) receives the signal from the reed switch (111a) and maintains the crushed material input pipe (300) in an open state.
[0113] That is, the second driving device (704) of the second opening / closing valve (700) receives the signal from the reed switch (111a) and moves the second lifting member (702) up and down. At this time, the second sealing packing (703) installed on the second lifting member (702) moves upward along the second vertical pipe (701) by the second lifting member (702), thereby opening the second vertical pipe (701) and maintaining a state in which the crushing device (100) and the crushed material input pipe (300) are connected.
[0114] At this time, the food falling below the main body (110) is continuously crushed to a size determined by the crushing blade (130), and subsequently supplied to the crushed material input pipe (300) through the second discharge port (113) formed at the same height.
[0115] Here, the crushed food supplied through the crushed material input pipe (300) is moved toward the decomposition processing device (200) through the crushed material input pipe (300) and then discharged into the housing (210) of the decomposition processing device (200) from one end of the crushed material input pipe (300).
[0116] At this time, a U-trap (not labeled) is formed at one end of the crushed material input pipe (300), and food is discharged into the housing (210) by an overflow manner through this U-trap (not labeled), thereby preventing an excessive amount of food from falling into the housing (210).
[0117] Next, when crushed food falls into the upper space (212) of the housing (210), the food is supported by the strainer (220) and received within the upper space (212) of the housing (210).
[0118] At this time, the upper space (212) of the housing (210) is provided with a microbial carrier (260) containing aerobic microorganisms that are embedded in crushed food, and the microbial carrier (260) is embedded in the crushed food that falls into the upper space (212) of the housing (210).
[0119] And, the stirring device (230) installed in the upper space (212) of the housing (210) is rotated in the forward or reverse direction by the driving device (240) to stir the crushed food supported on the strainer (220).
[0120] That is, as the above driving device (240) is operated, the stirring shaft (231) of the stirring device (230) is rotated in the forward or reverse direction, and accordingly, the stirring blade (232) formed on the stirring shaft (231) is rotated, thereby simultaneously stirring the crushed food supported by the filter screen (220), the aerobic microorganisms inhabiting the upper space (212), and the aerobic microorganisms that have detached from the microorganism carrier (260) and penetrated into the crushed food.
[0121] At this time, the state of food being stirred inside the housing (210) can be visually checked through the viewing window (215) formed on the upper surface of the housing (210).
[0122] Here, the aerobic microorganisms stirred by the stirring blade (232) decompose the food within the crushed food and cause liquid fermentation, and accordingly, odors and wastewater are discharged from the food simultaneously.
[0123] At this time, the odor generated within the housing (210) is prevented from flowing back through the crushed material input pipe (300) by the U-trap (not labeled) formed in the crushed material input pipe (300).
[0124] And, the discharge water generated during liquid fermentation in the upper space (212) of the housing (210) falls into the lower space (211) of the housing (210) through the passage hole (221) of the filter screen (220), and the discharge water is retained on the bottom of the lower space (211) of the housing (210).
[0125] At this time, some of the crushed food supported by the strainer (220) falls into the lower space (211) of the housing (210) through the passage hole (221) of the strainer (220), and accordingly, the crushed food and the discharge water generated during liquid fermentation in the upper space (212) of the housing (210) fall into the lower space (211) simultaneously.
[0126] Meanwhile, water introduced through the inlet (111) of the main body (110) passes through a contamination concentration sensor (150) formed on the inner surface of the inlet (111), and at this time, the contamination concentration sensor (150) measures the turbidity of the water introduced through the inlet (111).
[0127] Here, if the turbidity of the water measured by the pollution concentration sensor (150) is relatively lower than the predetermined turbidity, the pollution concentration sensor (150) controls the first shut-off valve (600) to open the first discharge port (600) and the washing pipe (400) so that they are connected, and in that state, water is supplied through the washing pipe (400).
[0128] At this time, if the turbidity of the water measured by the pollution concentration sensor (150) is relatively higher than the predetermined turbidity, the pollution concentration sensor (150) controls the first opening / closing valve (600) to open the first outlet (112) and the drain pipe (500) so that they are connected, thereby allowing the water from the first outlet (112) to be discharged to the outside through the drain pipe (500).
[0129] That is, if the turbidity of the water measured by the pollution concentration sensor (150) is higher than the predetermined turbidity, the first driving device (604) of the first opening / closing valve (600) receives the signal from the pollution concentration sensor (150) and moves the first lifting member (602) up and down. At this time, the first sealing packing (603) is moved up and down along the first vertical pipe body (601) by the first lifting member (602), thereby sealing the washing pipe (400) and maintaining a state in which the first discharge port (112) and the drain pipe (500) are connected.
[0130] On the other hand, if the turbidity of the water measured by the pollution concentration sensor (150) is lower than the predetermined turbidity, the first driving device (604) of the first opening / closing valve (600) receives the signal from the pollution concentration sensor (150) and moves the first lifting member (602) up and down. At this time, the first sealing packing (603) is moved up and down along the first vertical pipe body (601) by the first lifting member (602), thereby sealing the drain pipe (500) and maintaining a state in which the first discharge port (112) and the washing pipe (400) are connected.
[0131] Here, food contained in the water discharged through the first discharge port (112) is caught on the mesh net (112a) installed in the first discharge port (112), thereby preventing it from being discharged through the first discharge port (112), and accordingly, it is prevented from being supplied to the lower space (211) of the decomposition treatment device (200) through the washing pipe (400) or being discharged to the outside through the drain pipe (500).
[0132] Subsequently, water supplied to the lower space (211) of the housing (210) through the washing pipe (400) to have a predetermined water pressure pushes the food waste and discharged water that have fallen into the lower space (211) toward the drain (211a), and by forcibly discharging the food waste and discharged water to the outside through the drain (211a), the lower space (211) of the housing (210) is washed.
[0133] Here, among the food waste discharged through the drain (211a), food waste that is relatively larger than the size of the hole (not shown) of the drain filter (211a-1) is blocked by the drain filter (211a-1) and is prevented from being discharged through the drain (211a).
[0134] And, as described above, the food waste is struck by water supplied to the lower space (211) to have a predetermined water pressure, and is gradually crushed and discharged through the drainage filter (211a-1).
[0135] Next, the food crushed as described above is liquid-fermented so that food waste and wastewater fall into the lower space (211), and water is supplied to the lower space (211) so that the lower space (211) is washed by this water.
[0136] Meanwhile, if food waste gets stuck or adheres to the drain (211a) of the lower space (211), and the discharge water or water within the lower space (211) cannot be drained through the drain (211a), and the water level within the lower space (211) rises above a predetermined level, the water level sensor (214) detects that the discharge water or water has risen above a predetermined level, and at this time, the water level sensor (214) transmits a signal to the first opening / closing valve (600), thereby controlling the first opening / closing valve (600) in the same manner as above.
[0137] Then, the drain pipe (500) is opened by the first shut-off valve (600), and the washing pipe (400) is blocked, so that water supplied to the inlet (111) of the main body (110) is discharged to the outside through the drain pipe (500), and accordingly, the supply of water to the lower space (211) of the housing (210) is blocked.
[0138] On the other hand, the water level of the discharge water or water remaining in the lower space (211) is measured by the water level sensor (214) for a set period of time, and when the water level of the discharge water or water is measured to exceed the set level for a set period of time, the first opening / closing valve (600) is controlled to open the washing pipe (400), but the drain pipe (500) is blocked so that water is continuously supplied to the washing pipe (400).
[0139] Here, the water supplied to the washing pipe (400) is discharged to the lower space (211) with a predetermined water pressure, thereby striking food waste stuck or stuck in the drain (211a) of the lower space (211) or causing a vortex to be generated in the discharge water or water retained in the lower space (211), thereby inducing the discharge water or water to be forcibly discharged into the drain (211a).
[0140] At this time, the water level sensor (214) opens the washing pipe (400) with the first opening / closing valve (600) for a set period of time to continuously supply water at a set water pressure to the lower space (211), and thereafter, the water level sensor (214) detects the discharge water or water level within the lower space (211). When it is detected that the discharge water or water level has risen above a set level, the washing pipe (400) is opened continuously at a set time interval in the same manner as above, thereby performing the same method as above.
[0141] Meanwhile, the water level of the discharge water or water in the lower space (211) is measured by the water level sensor (150), and when the water level drops below a predetermined level, the first opening / closing valve (600) is controlled to maintain a state in which the washing pipe (400) and the first discharge port (112) are connected.
[0142] Next, when the crushed food is continuously supplied into the housing (210) of the decomposition treatment device (200) through the crushed food input pipe (300), the amount of crushed food supported by the filter screen (220) inside the housing (210) increases, and when the surface height of the amount of crushed food exceeds the height of the overload detection sensor (213) installed inside the housing (210), the overload detection sensor (213) outputs a signal to the driving device (240) and the microorganism automatic input device (250), and at the same time, the second opening / closing valve (700) is controlled so that the crushed food input pipe (300) is blocked, and the operation of the motor (120) of the crushing device (100) is stopped, thereby blocking the supply of crushed food into the housing (210) through the crushed food input pipe (300).
[0143] Then, as the above driving device (240) operates continuously, the stirring shaft (231) is rotated so that the stirring blade (232) installed on the stirring shaft (231) evenly stirs the crushed food and aerobic microorganisms placed on the filter screen (220), thereby promoting the aerobic microorganisms to decompose the crushed food through liquid fermentation.
[0144] Additionally, the above-mentioned automatic microorganism injection device (250) receives a signal from the above-mentioned overload detection sensor (213) and injects a predetermined amount of aerobic microorganisms into the upper space (212) of the housing (210) through the microorganism injection hole (212a) of the housing (210). Accordingly, the aerobic microorganisms within the microorganism carrier (260) provided in the upper space (212) penetrate into the food, and at the same time, the aerobic microorganisms supplied to the upper space (212) of the housing (210) through the microorganism injection hole (212a) are stirred into the food and penetrate into the food, thereby promoting the liquid fermentation and decomposition of the crushed food within the upper space (212).
[0145] Here, the microorganism input hole (212a) is formed to penetrate downward at an angle, so that aerobic microorganisms fall down into the upper space (212) through the microorganism input hole (212a).
[0146] At this time, the overload detection sensor (213) outputs whether the crushed food inside the housing (210) is overloaded through the display unit (241) of the driving device (240), thereby allowing the overloaded food inside the housing (210) to be determined from the outside through the display unit (241), and thus preventing the food from being fed into the crushing device (100).
[0147] Afterwards, when the crushed food in the upper space (212) of the housing (210) undergoes liquid fermentation decomposition and the surface height is lowered to a height below that determined by the overload detection sensor (213), the motor (120) of the crushing device (100) is operated, and the crushed material input pipe (300) is opened by the second opening / closing valve (700).
[0148] In addition, the operation of the automatic microorganism injection device (250), which operates by receiving the signal from the overload detection sensor (213), is stopped, thereby blocking the supply of aerobic microorganisms into the housing (210).
[0149] In the above description, the end cap (140) is attached to the top of the main body (110), and the state in which the reed switch (111a) is pressed by the end cap (140) is explained as an example.
[0150] When the above-mentioned closing lid (140) is removed and the pressing of the above-mentioned reed switch (111a) is released, the above-mentioned second shut-off valve (700) is operated to block the above-mentioned crushed material input pipe (300), and the above-mentioned first shut-off valve (600) selectively opens the above-mentioned first discharge port (112) to communicate with the above-mentioned washing pipe (400) or drain pipe (500), thereby moving the water introduced into the above-mentioned input port (111).
[0151] Additionally, although the above description describes an example in which the motor (120) and the driving device (240) are connected to the reed switch (111a) and the motor (120) and the driving device (240) are operated by the pressing operation of the reed switch (111a), the motor (120) and the driving device (240) may be controlled to be operated by user operation, operated at a set time interval, or operated at a set time.
[0152] The structure, which supplies crushed food as described above to a decomposition treatment device (200) and liquid ferments the crushed food within the decomposition treatment device (200) through aerobic microorganisms, and supplies water supplied into the crushing device (100) into the decomposition treatment device (200) through a washing pipe (400) so that the internal space of the decomposition treatment device (200) is cleaned with this water, thereby forcibly discharging the wastewater and food waste discharged during the liquid fermentation of food, ensures that there is no risk of food waste remaining within the decomposition treatment device (200) by supplying water into the decomposition treatment device (200) and forcibly discharging food waste within the decomposition treatment device (200) with this water, and prevents the generation of odors within the decomposition treatment device (200) by preventing food waste from remaining, and by selectively opening the drain pipe or washing pipe (400) through the first opening / closing valve (600) according to the user's judgment, water is discharged through the drain pipe (500) or water is introduced into the decomposition treatment device (200). The inside of the decomposition processing device (200) can be cleaned by supplying it.
[0153] The microbial liquid fermentation type food waste processor according to the present invention described above is not limited to the embodiments described above, and its technical spirit extends to the scope in which any person with ordinary knowledge in the field to which the present invention belongs can implement it by making various modifications without departing from the gist of the present invention as claimed in the following claims.
