Description

Covering device for food processor {Covering device for food processor}

The disclosed content relates to a cover device of a food waste disposal machine, and more specifically, mixing a certain amount of water with the food waste to be fed, pulverizing and finely grinding it through multistage steps, and stirring the waste mixture in such a ground state. It relates to a cover device of a food waste disposal machine for discharging a waste mixture to the outside through a centrifugal force after being put into a rotating septic tank.

Unless otherwise indicated herein, the content described in this section is not prior art to the claims of this application, and inclusion in this section is not admitted to be prior art.

A certain amount of leftovers (waste food) are discharged every day in each home or restaurant, and these residues are used as livestock feed or are discarded after filtering out only the mixed water through a simple sieve.

This residual waste treatment method increases the amount of garbage collected and, if the garbage is not disposed of frequently, generates an odor and pollutes the surrounding air, so a food waste treatment machine is used.

The food waste treatment machine is equipped with a main body made of insulating material, and a door for inserting or removing the residue on the outside of the main body, and a fermentation tank for processing the residue and a deodorizing device for removing odors generated during the processing of the residue. do.

Conventional doors can only be opened or closed, but a partial opening function has been required because a full opening is avoided when the smell is severe.
