FOOD WASTE DISPOSER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18313166 titled 'FOOD WASTE DISPOSER
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a food waste disposer that includes a housing, a grinding case, a rotating grinder, a grinder rotating shaft, and a driver. The grinding case is positioned inside the housing and can be separated to treat food waste. The rotating grinder, which is rotatably coupled with the grinding case, treats the food waste by rotating inside the grinding case. The grinder rotating shaft is inserted in the rotating grinder and rotates together with it. The driver, positioned below the grinding case, provides rotation power to the rotating grinder through a driving motor, a shaft driving gear, and a connecting shaft.
- The food waste disposer is designed to treat food waste by grinding it.
- The grinding case can be separated from the housing, allowing for easy disposal of the treated food waste.
- The rotating grinder effectively grinds the food waste inside the grinding case.
- The grinder rotating shaft rotates together with the rotating grinder, ensuring efficient grinding.
- The driver, consisting of a driving motor, a shaft driving gear, and a connecting shaft, provides the necessary rotation power to the rotating grinder.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Residential kitchens: The food waste disposer can be installed in residential kitchens to efficiently dispose of food waste.
- Commercial kitchens: Restaurants and other food establishments can benefit from this technology to manage their food waste more effectively.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Food waste management: The food waste disposer solves the problem of how to efficiently and hygienically dispose of food waste.
- Odor control: By grinding the food waste, the disposer helps to reduce the odor associated with decomposing food waste.
Benefits of this technology:
- Convenience: The food waste disposer provides a convenient way to dispose of food waste without the need for separate waste bins.
- Hygiene: By grinding the food waste, the disposer helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and pests associated with decomposing food waste.
- Environmental impact: Properly managing food waste through grinding and disposal can help reduce the environmental impact of landfill waste.
Original Abstract Submitted
A food waste disposer includes: a housing; a grinding case positioned inside the housing and configured to be separable from inside of the housing to outside of the housing and treat food waste; a rotating grinder configured to treat the food waste by rotating inside the grinding case and rotatably coupled with respect to a bottom surface of the grinding case; a grinder rotating shaft inserted in the rotating grinder and configured to rotate together with the rotating grinder; and a driver positioned below the grinding case and configured to provide rotation power of the rotating grinder, wherein the driver includes: a driving motor configured to generate power; a shaft driving gear configured to rotate by receiving power of the driving motor; and a connecting shaft configured to be rotatable within a range of a first angle with respect to the shaft driving gear, wherein one end of the connecting shaft is inserted in the grinder rotating shaft and another end of the connecting shaft is inserted in the shaft driving gear to transfer power from the shaft driving gear to the grinder rotating shaft.
