FOOD WASTE DISPOSER INCLUDING DOOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240116704 titled 'FOOD WASTE DISPOSER INCLUDING DOOR
Simplified Explanation
The food waste disposer described in the patent application includes a door with a lever mechanism that allows for easy opening and closing of the housing. The lever mechanism is controlled by an actuator based on an electrical signal.
- The door of the food waste disposer is coupled to the housing by a hinge, allowing it to open and close the opening of the housing.
- The door lever is insertable into a fixing groove near the opening of the housing, providing stability and ease of operation.
- A holder lever is connected to the door lever and can rotate about a rotation shaft, facilitating the movement of the door.
- A pulling member transmits external physical force to the holder lever, enabling the rotation of the door for opening and closing.
- An actuator generates a force to rotate the holder lever based on an electrical signal, providing automated control of the door mechanism.
Potential Applications
The technology described in this patent application could be applied to various household and commercial food waste disposers to improve the efficiency and ease of use of the devices.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of difficult and cumbersome operation of food waste disposers by providing a mechanism that allows for easy opening and closing of the housing.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved user experience, increased efficiency in disposing of food waste, and automated control of the door mechanism.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology could be implemented in commercial kitchens, restaurants, and residential settings where food waste disposers are used regularly.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art for this technology could be traditional food waste disposers with manual door mechanisms that are less efficient and user-friendly compared to the automated lever system described in the patent application.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact energy consumption in food waste disposers?
The patent application does not provide information on the energy consumption of the device or how the automated door mechanism may affect overall energy usage.
Are there any safety features incorporated into the design of the food waste disposer?
The patent application does not mention any safety features that may be included in the design to prevent accidents or injuries during operation.
Original Abstract Submitted
according to an embodiment, a food waste disposer includes a housing having an opening formed on one end thereof, and a door coupled by hinge to open or close the opening of the housing. the door includes a door lever configured to be insertable into a fixing groove provided adjacent to the opening of the housing, a holder lever coupled to the door lever and configured to rotate about a rotation shaft, a pulling member configured to transmit a physical external force applied from the outside to the holder lever such that the holder lever rotates about the rotation shaft, one end of the pulling member being connected to the holder lever, and an actuator configured to generate a force to rotate the holder lever about the rotation shaft, based on an electrical signal.
