図 5乃至図 8あるいは図 9乃至図 1 2に示されるように、 回転ドラム 1 0の開 口部 1 0 aは円筒部に中心角が略 9 0 ° の範囲で形成されており、 その他の部 位 (開口部 1 0 aの回転方向下流側の中心角が略 1 8 0 ° の範囲) には多数の 水分通過穴 5 6 (パンチ穴) が所定の間隔で形成されている。 ただし、 開口部 1 0 aの回転方向上流側の中心角が略 9 0° の範囲にはパンチ穴は全く形成され ていない。 また、 回転ドラム 1 0の端面の外周部にも多数の空気取込み穴 5 8 (パンチ穴) が所定の間隔で形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 8 or FIG. 9 to FIG. 12, the opening 10a of the rotating drum 10 is formed in the cylindrical portion at a central angle of approximately 90 °, and other A large number of water passage holes 56 (punch holes) are formed at predetermined intervals in the portion (the center angle of the opening 10a on the downstream side in the rotation direction is approximately 180 °). However, no punch hole is formed in a range where the central angle of the opening 10a on the upstream side in the rotation direction is approximately 90 °. Also, a large number of air intake holes 58 (punch holes) are formed at predetermined intervals in the outer peripheral portion of the end face of the rotating drum 10.
水分通過穴 5 6の穴径は、 微生物保持体として使用される排泄物処理用チップ (木片) あるいはおが屑等のサイズにより決定され、 例えば略 3〜1 5 mm角の サイズのチップを使用した場合、 穴径は ψ 1 . 5 mm〜 φ 3 mm程度が好ましい。 穴径がこれよりも小さすぎると目詰まりを起こし、 大きすぎると小さくなったチ ップが回転ドラム 1 0の外部に落下しやすい。 同様に、 空気取込み穴 5 8の穴径 も、 使用されるチップ (木片) あるいはおが屑等のサイズにより決定され、 例え ば略 3〜 1 5 mm角のサイズのチップを使用した場合、 穴径は φ 1 . 5 mn!〜 φ 3 mm程度が好ましい。 穴径がこれよりも小さすぎると目詰まりを起こして空気 が入りにくく、 大きすぎると小さくなつたチップが回転ドラム 1 0の外部に落下 しゃすい。 この場合、 水分通過穴 5 6及び空気取込み穴 5 8の穴ピッチはそれぞ れ 2 mn!〜 5 mmが好ましい。 すなわち、 使用する微生物保持体がドラム穴より こぼれないような穴の設定が必要である。 The hole diameter of the water passage hole 56 is determined by the size of the excrement disposal chip (wood piece) or sawdust used as a microorganism carrier, for example, when a chip of approximately 3 to 15 mm square is used. The hole diameter is preferably about 1.5 mm to 3 mm. If the hole diameter is too small, clogging occurs. If the hole diameter is too large, the chip that has become small tends to fall outside the rotating drum 10. Similarly, the hole diameter of the air intake hole 58 is also determined by the size of the chip (wood piece) or sawdust used. For example, when a chip having a size of approximately 3 to 15 mm square is used, the hole diameter is φ 1.5 mn! ~ 3 mm is preferred. If the hole diameter is too small, clogging occurs and air is difficult to enter. If the hole diameter is too large, the chip that has become small will fall out of the rotating drum 10 and be washed. In this case, the hole pitch of the water passage hole 56 and the air intake hole 58 is 2 mn each. ~ 5 mm is preferred. In other words, it is necessary to set a hole so that the microorganism holder used does not spill out from the drum hole.
また、 回転軸 1 2には、 撹拌を円滑に行うために、 回転ドラム 1 0の内部空間 に放射状に突出する複数 (図では三つ) の邪魔板 6 0が所定の間隔で取り付けら れている。 なお、 邪魔板 6 0の代わりに、 チェーンや丸棒を回転軸 1 2に取り付 けることもでき、 これらは有機廃棄物とチップとの混合を促進する混合促進手段 として作用する。 A plurality of (three in the figure) baffle plates 60 radially protruding into the inner space of the rotating drum 10 are attached to the rotating shaft 12 at a predetermined interval for smooth stirring. I have. Instead of the baffle plate 60, a chain or a round bar can be attached to the rotating shaft 12, and these function as a mixing promoting means for promoting the mixing of the organic waste and the chips.
一方、 回転ドラム 1 0の円筒部内面には、 チップを保持するための複数の板状 チップ保持部材 6 2が回転ドラム 1 0の内部空間に突出するように所定の間隔で 放射状に取り付けられており、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aにおける回転軸 1 2に略平行な対向縁部には、 一対の板状チップ保持部材 6 4が略平行に延在する ように取り付けられている。 チップ保持部材 6 2 , 6 4も、 邪魔板 6 0と同様、 有機廃棄物とチップとの混合を促進する混合促進手段として作用する。 また、 回 転方向下流側のチップ保持部材 6 4には、 タンク 8と回転ドラム 1 0との間のク リアランス部に落下したチップを搔き揚げるためのスクレーパ 6 6が貼着されて いる。 On the other hand, on the inner surface of the cylindrical portion of the rotating drum 10, a plurality of plate-like chip holding members 62 for holding chips are radially attached at predetermined intervals so as to protrude into the internal space of the rotating drum 10. In addition, a pair of plate-like chip holding members 64 are attached to the opposite edges of the opening 10 a of the rotating drum 10 that are substantially parallel to the rotation axis 12 so as to extend substantially in parallel. Similarly to the baffle plate 60, the chip holding members 62 and 64 also function as mixing promoting means for promoting the mixing of the organic waste and the chips. In addition, a scraper 66 is attached to the tip holding member 64 on the downstream side in the rotation direction to lift up the chips that have fallen into the clearance between the tank 8 and the rotating drum 10.
さらに、 タンク 8の対向する側壁の一方の内面には、 後述する待機時に回転ド ラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aを遮蔽する遮蔽部材 6 8が取り付けられている。 Further, a shielding member 68 for shielding the opening 10a of the rotating drum 10 during standby, which will be described later, is attached to one inner surface of the opposed side wall of the tank 8.
なお、 図中、 6 7 , 6 9は、 待機位置検出スィッチ及び使用位置検出スィッチ をそれぞれ示している。 In the drawing, 67 and 69 indicate a standby position detection switch and a use position detection switch, respectively.
上述した構成の本発明にかかる簡易トイレ Tを使用する前に、 回転ドラム 1 0 の開口部 1 0 aより糖糸状菌、 桿菌、 球菌、 酵母等の微生物を担持したチップ (微生物保持体) がまず投入される。 投入量としては、 回転ドラム 1 0の内容積 の略 4 5〜 7 5 %程度が好ましい。 Before using the simple toilet T according to the present invention having the above-described configuration, a chip carrying microorganisms such as filamentous fungi, bacilli, cocci, and yeast from the opening 10 a of the rotating drum 10. (Microorganism carrier) is charged first. The charging amount is preferably about 45 to 75% of the inner volume of the rotating drum 10.
ここで、 上述したクリアランスやパンチ穴、 あるいは 気ファン 2 4等の機器 と微生物保持体との関連性につき、 説明する。 Here, the relationship between the above-described devices such as the clearance, the punch holes, or the air fan 24 and the microorganism holder will be described.
( 1 ) クリアランスについて (1) About clearance
タンク 8底部と回転ドラム 1 0のクリアランスは、 微生物保持体と水分を分離 させ、 水分過多を防ぎ、 新鮮な空気の流れる道を作り、 微生物の働きを助け、 好 気性の発酵分解をさせるためである。 The clearance between the bottom of the tank 8 and the rotating drum 10 separates the microorganisms and moisture, prevents excess moisture, creates a flow path for fresh air, helps microorganisms, and breaks down aerobic fermentation. is there.
( 2 ) 排気ファン 2 4について (2) Exhaust fan 24
タンク 8に取り付けられて排気ファン 2 4 (電源 O Nで常時回転) によりタン ク 8内と回転ドラム 1 0内の湿気が排気口 2 2を介して排出され、 回転ドラム 1 0内の微生物保持体の水分過多を防ぎ、 タンク 8及び回転ドラム 1 0内の臭気を 外部に排出する。 キャビン内に配置される船舶 (特に小型船舶) 用トイレあるい は車載用トイレでは、 本体開口部 2 8より船外 (キャビンの外部) あるいは車外 に排出して、 船内あるいは車内に臭気を出さないためである。 なお、 介護用トイ レでは、 別に取り付けられた脱臭器により臭気を室内に出さない対策が講じられ る。 The moisture inside the tank 8 and the rotating drum 10 is discharged through the exhaust port 22 by the exhaust fan 24 (always rotating when the power is turned on) attached to the tank 8, and the microorganism holding body in the rotating drum 10 is discharged. To prevent excessive moisture in the tank and discharge the odor in the tank 8 and the rotating drum 10 to the outside. In toilets for vessels (especially small vessels) or in-vehicle toilets placed in the cabin, they are discharged outboard (outside of the cabin) or out of the vehicle through the main body opening 28, and do not emit odors on the ship or in the vehicle That's why. In the case of nursing care toys, measures are taken to prevent odors from being emitted indoors by using a separately installed deodorizer.
( 3 ) ヒータ 3 0について (3) About heater 30
タンク 8底部に溜まった水分を蒸発させるとともに、 その蒸気により回転ドラ ム 1 0内の微生物保持体の保温効果が得られ、 蒸気による微生物保持体の保湿効 果も同様に得られる。 また、 ヒータ温度表示については、 ヒータ 3 0が適当な温 度で効率よく作動しているかを目視で確認でき、 力つ、 環境変化に伴い温度設定 が容易に変更できる。 In addition to evaporating the water accumulated at the bottom of the tank 8, the steam provides a heat retaining effect for the microorganism holding body in the rotating drum 10, and the steam also provides a moisture retaining effect for the microorganism holding body. In addition, regarding the heater temperature display, it is possible to visually check whether the heater 30 is operating efficiently at an appropriate temperature, and the temperature setting can be easily changed according to power and environmental changes.
( 4 ) 回転ドラム 1 0の撹拌について (4) Stirring of rotating drum 10
回転ドラム 1 0を回転させることにより回転ドラム 1 0内の微生物保持体の磨 耗を少なくして排泄物との混合を促進し、 好気性の発酵分解をさせることができ る。 排泄物と微生物保持体の撹拌を一目で確認するために、 撹拌表示灯 4 6が取 り付けられている。 By rotating the rotating drum 10, wear of the microorganism holding body in the rotating drum 10 is reduced, mixing with the excrement is promoted, and aerobic fermentation decomposition can be performed. A stirring indicator light 46 is installed to confirm at a glance the stirring of the excrement and the microorganism carrier.
( 5 ) パンチ穴について (ドラム外周に穿設された穴) 排泄物の水分を回転ドラム 1 0内よりタンク 8へと移動させ、 微生物保持体と の分離を早く行うことができる。 また、 タンク 8底部より蒸発した蒸気及び蒸発 熱をタンク 8内に取り込み、 保温及び保湿効果を得ることができるとともに、 新 鮮な空気をタンク 8内に取り入れ、 回転ドラム 1 0内の臭気及び湿気を排出させ る。 (5) Punch holes (holes drilled around the drum) The moisture of the excrement can be moved from the inside of the rotating drum 10 to the tank 8 to quickly separate the excrement from the microorganism carrier. In addition, the steam and evaporation heat evaporated from the bottom of the tank 8 are taken into the tank 8 to obtain a heat-retaining and moisturizing effect, and fresh air is taken into the tank 8 so that the odor and moisture in the rotating drum 10 are removed. Is discharged.
微生物保持体投入後、 必要に応じ簡易トイレ Tは使用できる状態になる。 使用 時及び使用後の動作につき、 図 1 3のフローチヤ一ト及び図 1 4のタイミングチ ヤートを参照しながら説明する。 After loading the microorganism carrier, the simple toilet T can be used if necessary. The operation during and after use will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 13 and the timing chart of FIG.
使用に際し、 まず本体 2に設けられた電源スィッチ 4 4を押下して O Nにする。 この時、 第 1及ぴ第 2の撹拌制御スィツチ 3 4 , 3 6は ON状態で、 回転ドラム 1 0は待機位置検出スィツチ 6 7により図 5に示される待機位置に設定されてお り、 回転ドラム 1 0の円筒部の水分通過穴 5 6が形成されていない部位が真上に 位置している。 この状態では、 開口部 1 0 aは遮蔽部材 6 8に遮蔽されており、 臭気が漏れにくい構造である。 また、 電源スィッチ 4 4の O Nと同時に、 排気フ アン 2 4及びヒータ 3 0も O Nとなる。 ヒータ 3 0は、 使用場所 (暑い所、 寒冷 地等) や使用環境 (湿度や乾燥の度合等) に応じて、 ヒータの温度表示を目視し ながらヒータ温度調整ダイャノレ 4 2により例えば 2 5 °C〜 5 0 °Cの温度範囲で適 宜設定 (設定温度: t s) 可能である。 In use, first press the power switch 44 provided on the main unit 2 to turn it on. At this time, the first and second stirring control switches 34 and 36 are in the ON state, and the rotating drum 10 is set to the standby position shown in FIG. The portion of the cylindrical portion of the drum 10 where the water passage hole 56 is not formed is located directly above. In this state, the opening 10a is shielded by the shielding member 68, and the structure is such that the odor hardly leaks. At the same time as the power switch 44 is turned on, the exhaust fan 24 and the heater 30 are turned on. The heater 30 can be set to, for example, 25 ° C by the heater temperature adjustment 42 while watching the heater temperature display according to the place of use (hot place, cold place, etc.) and use environment (humidity, degree of drying, etc.). Appropriate setting (set temperature: t s ) is possible in the temperature range of up to 50 ° C.
ここで、 便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を外すと第 1の撹拌制御スィツチ 3 4が O F F となり (ステップ S 1 ) 、 さらに便座蓋 6を開けると第 2の撹拌制御スィッチ 3 6が O F Fとなる (ステップ S 2 ) 。 第 1の撹拌制御スィッチ 3 4が O F Fにな ると、 回転ドラム 1 0は図 5の待機状態から図 6の使用状態まで略 9 0 ° 回転 し、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aが真上に位置した状態で停止し、 撹拌モータ 1 6が O F Fとなり、 便座蓋 6を開けると用便が可能となる。 ここでは、 留め金 3 2を外したことを検知し、 便座蓋 6が開くまでに回転ドラム 1 0を使用位置検 出スィッチ 6 9により設定される使用位置に配置させることで、 便座蓋 6が開い た状態で回転ドラム 1 0が回転しないよう安全対策を講じている。 また、 第 1の 撹拌制御スィツチ 3 4は、 有機廃棄物の投入を検出する手段として使用される。 また、 待機状態では、 回転ドラム 1 0のパンチ穴が形成されていない部位が真 上に位置しているので、 ドラム内チップの外部への飛び出し、 ドラム内臭気の外 部への漏れ、 ドラム内水分の蒸発による便座蓋 6の結露等が防止される。 この時、 ドラム内の湿気や臭気は、 回転ドラム 1 0の側方のパンチ穴を介して外部に排出 される。 さらに、 待機状態では、 回転ドラム 1 0の下部にパンチ穴が開口してい るので、 ヒータ 3 0により暖められた水蒸気により ドラム内のチップが保温及ぴ 保湿される。 チップが水分過多の場合には、 ドラム内の水分はパンチ穴を介して タンク 8に流出する。 一方、 使用状態では、 回転ドラム 1 0の下部にパンチ穴が 存在し、 タンク 8底部のヒータ 3 0により蒸発した水分が回転ドラム 1 0の内部 に収容されたチップ中に入り易くなり、 チップの保温と保湿が行われる。 さらに、 チップの水分量が過多の場合には、 回転ドラム 1 0よりタンク 8に流れ易い。 用便が済み、 ステップ S 3において、 便座蓋 6を閉じると第 2の撹拌制御スィ ツチ 3 6が O Nとなり、 さらに便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を掛けると第 1の撹拌制御 スィッチ 3 4が O Nとなるとともにタイマによる計時が開始する。 また、 第 1及 び第 2の撹拌制御スィツチ 3 4, 3 6が両方とも O Nにならないと撹拌が開始せ ず、 便座蓋 6が開いた状態では撹拌が開始しないので、 人体の一部が回転物によ り挟まれるようなことがなく、 安全に使用できる。 Here, when the catch 32 of the toilet seat cover 6 is removed, the first stirring control switch 34 is turned off (step S 1), and when the toilet seat cover 6 is further opened, the second stirring control switch 36 is turned off. (Step S2). When the first stirring control switch 34 is turned off, the rotary drum 10 rotates approximately 90 ° from the standby state of FIG. 5 to the use state of FIG. 6, and the opening 10 a of the rotary drum 10 is closed. It stops at the position directly above, the stirring motor 16 is turned off, and when the toilet seat lid 6 is opened, the toilet can be used. Here, it is detected that the clasp 32 has been removed, and the rotating drum 10 is arranged at the use position set by the use position detection switch 69 until the toilet seat cover 6 is opened. Safety measures are taken to prevent the rotating drum 10 from rotating when it is open. Further, the first stirring control switch 34 is used as a means for detecting the input of the organic waste. In the standby state, a portion of the rotary drum 10 where no punch hole is formed is true. Since it is located on the upper side, it is possible to prevent chips in the drum from jumping out, leakage of odor in the drum to the outside, and dew condensation on the toilet seat lid 6 due to evaporation of moisture in the drum. At this time, the moisture and odor in the drum are discharged to the outside through the punch holes on the side of the rotating drum 10. Further, in the standby state, since a punch hole is opened in the lower part of the rotating drum 10, the chips in the drum are kept warm and moist by the steam heated by the heater 30. If the chips have excessive moisture, the moisture in the drum flows out to the tank 8 through the punch holes. On the other hand, in use, there is a punch hole at the bottom of the rotating drum 10 so that the moisture evaporated by the heater 30 at the bottom of the tank 8 can easily enter the chips housed inside the rotating drum 10, and Heat and moisture are kept. Further, when the water content of the chips is excessive, the chips flow more easily into the tank 8 than the rotating drum 10. When the toilet is completed, in step S3, when the toilet seat cover 6 is closed, the second stirring control switch 36 is turned on, and when the catch 32 of the toilet seat cover 6 is further engaged, the first stirring control switch 34 is activated. As soon as it turns on, the timer starts counting. Also, stirring does not start unless both the first and second stirring control switches 34, 36 are turned ON, and stirring does not start when the toilet seat lid 6 is open, so that a part of the human body rotates. It can be used safely without being pinched by objects.
ステップ S 4において、 撹拌モータ 1 6が回転を開始し、 回転ドラム 1 0の回 転に伴って、 回転ドラム 1 0に投入された排泄物とチップとを撹拌する。 図 5乃 至図 8あるいは図 9乃至図 1 2は、 回転ドラム 1 0が回転している状態であって、 それぞれ略 9 0 ° ずれた状態を示している。 回転ドラム 1 0の回転速度は、 例 えば 3〜7 . 5 r p mに設定されている。 In step S4, the stirring motor 16 starts rotating, and the excrement and the chips put into the rotating drum 10 are stirred with the rotation of the rotating drum 10. FIGS. 5 to 8 or FIGS. 9 to 12 show a state in which the rotating drum 10 is rotating, and are each shifted by about 90 °. The rotation speed of the rotating drum 10 is set to, for example, 3 to 7.5 rpm.
なお、 回転ドラム 1 0の回転中、 開口部 1 0 aがタンク 8底部と対向すると、 タンク 8内に溜まっていた水分がチップに侵入し、 タンク 8内の水分が除去され るとともに、 チップの保温及び保湿が行われる。 If the opening 10a faces the bottom of the tank 8 during the rotation of the rotating drum 10, the water stored in the tank 8 enters the chips, the water in the tank 8 is removed, and the chips 10 Heat retention and moisture retention are performed.
次のステップ S 5において、 タイマによる計時が所定時間 T 1 (例えば、 3 分) を経過したかどうかが判定され、 所定時間 T 1が経過したと判定されると、 ステップ S 6において、 撹拌モータ 1 6の回転が停止し、 回転ドラム 1 0は待機 位置検出スィツチ 6 7により待機位置に設定される。 一方、 所定時間 T 1が経過 していないと判定されると、 撹拌モータ 1 6は回転を継続する。 ステップ S 6に おいて撹拌モータ 1 6の回転が停止すると、 ステップ S 7において撹拌モータ 1 6は所定時間 T 2 (例えば、 1 0分) 毎に所定時間 T 3 (例えば、 3 0秒) 回転 し、 排泄物とチップとを間欠的に撹拌する。 In the next step S5, it is determined whether or not the time measured by the timer has passed a predetermined time T1 (for example, 3 minutes). If it is determined that the predetermined time T1 has passed, in step S6, the stirring motor is started. The rotation of 16 stops, and the rotating drum 10 is set to the standby position by the standby position detection switch 67. On the other hand, when it is determined that the predetermined time T1 has not elapsed, the stirring motor 16 continues to rotate. Step S 6 When the rotation of the stirring motor 16 stops at this time, in step S7, the stirring motor 16 rotates for a predetermined time T3 (for example, 30 seconds) every predetermined time T2 (for example, 10 minutes), and excrement is discharged. And the chips are intermittently stirred.
次のステップ S 8において、 タイマによる計時が所定時間 T 4 (例えば、 1時 間) を経過したかどう力が判定され、 所定時間 T 4が経過したと判定されると、 ステップ S 9において、 撹拌モータ 1 6が今度は、 所定時間 T 5 (例えば、 1時 間) 毎に所定時間 T 6 (例えば、 3 0秒) 回転し、 排泄物とチップとを間欠的に 撹拌する。 一方、 所定時間 T 4が経過していないと判定されると、 ステップ S 7 に戻る。 In the next step S8, it is determined whether or not the time measured by the timer has passed a predetermined time T4 (for example, one hour) .If it is determined that the predetermined time T4 has passed, in step S9, This time, the stirring motor 16 rotates for a predetermined time T6 (for example, 30 seconds) every predetermined time T5 (for example, one hour), and intermittently mixes the excrement and the chip. On the other hand, if it is determined that the predetermined time T4 has not elapsed, the process returns to step S7.
次のステップ S 1 0において、 タイマによる計時が所定時間 T 7 (例えば、 8 時間) を経過したかどうかが判定され、 所定時間 T 7が経過したと判定されると、 ステップ S 1 1において、 全機器の運転が停止するとともに、 回転ドラム 1 0は 図 5の待機状態に保持される。 一方、 所定時間 T 7が経過していないと判定され ると、 ステップ S 9に戻る。 なお、 所定時間 T 7内において、 排泄物はチップに 担持された微生物により水分と炭酸ガスにすベて分解される。 In the next step S10, it is determined whether or not the time measured by the timer has passed a predetermined time T7 (for example, 8 hours). If it is determined that the predetermined time T7 has passed, in step S11, While the operation of all devices is stopped, the rotating drum 10 is kept in the standby state shown in FIG. On the other hand, if it is determined that the predetermined time T7 has not elapsed, the process returns to step S9. Note that, within the predetermined time T7, the excrement is completely decomposed into moisture and carbon dioxide by the microorganisms carried on the chip.
また、 船舶あるいは車载用は、 上述したように、 無使用時、 所定時間 T 7で全 機器が停止し、 再度使用する時は電源を入れ直すことになるが、 介護用は無使用 時、 所定時間 T 7経過しても自動停止にはならず、 排気ファン 2 4及びヒータ 3 0は作動したままである。 In addition, as described above, for ships and vehicles, when not in use, all equipment is stopped at the predetermined time T7, and when it is used again, the power is turned on again. Even after the elapse of the time T7, the automatic stop is not performed, and the exhaust fan 24 and the heater 30 remain operating.
また、 ステップ S 3からステップ S 1 0までの過程で、 第 1の撹拌制御スィッ チ 3 4が O F Fになると (便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を外した場合) 、 リセットされ、 再びステップ S 1〜S 1 0の過程を繰り返す。 When the first stirring control switch 34 is turned off (when the clasp 32 of the toilet lid 6 is removed) in the process from step S3 to step S10, the process is reset and step S1 is performed again. The process of ~ S10 is repeated.
上記構成は、 第 1及ぴ第 2の撹拌制御スイッチ 3 4 , 3 6が両方とも O Nにな ると、 撹拌が開始するが、 便座蓋 6が開くと撹拌が停止し、 身体の一部が撹拌中 の回転ドラム 1 0内に絶対に入らない構造である。 In the above configuration, when both the first and second stirring control switches 34, 36 are turned ON, stirring starts, but when the toilet seat lid 6 is opened, stirring stops, and a part of the body is It is a structure that never enters the rotating drum 10 during stirring.
また、 上記構成において、 本体開口部 2 8には本体 2から外部に排出される臭 気を除去するための脱臭器を設けることもできる。 In the above configuration, the body opening 28 may be provided with a deodorizer for removing odor discharged from the body 2 to the outside.
図 1 5は、 本発明にかかる簡易トイレ Tの変形例を示しており、 タンク 8内の ZK位を検出する水位センサ 7 0をタンク 8に取り付けるとともに、 7位センサ 7 0により検出されたタンク 8内の水位を表示するための水位表示計 7 2を本体 2 の上部に取り付けたものである。 なお、 7位センサ 7 0が取り付けられる部屋は 上部に設けられた蓋により密閉され、 本体開口部 2 8と連通している。 FIG. 15 shows a modification of the simple toilet T according to the present invention. A water level sensor 70 for detecting the ZK position in the tank 8 is attached to the tank 8, and a seventh position sensor 7 is provided. A water level indicator 72 for displaying the water level in the tank 8 detected by 0 is attached to the upper part of the main body 2. The room to which the seventh-position sensor 70 is attached is closed by a lid provided at the top, and communicates with the main body opening 28.
この構成によれば、 タンク 8内の水位を必要に応じ確認することができ、 水分 が多い時にはヒータ 3 0の設定温度を高くしてタンク 8内の水分の蒸発を促進す る一方、 水分が少ない時には水分を適量補充することができる。 According to this configuration, the water level in the tank 8 can be checked as necessary. When the water content is high, the set temperature of the heater 30 is increased to promote the evaporation of the water content in the tank 8, while the water content is high. When it is low, an appropriate amount of water can be replenished.
また、 本体 2の内部に、 電磁弁を介してタンク 8と連通する補充タンクを設け、 水位センサ 7 0の出力をシーケンサ制御部 3 8に入力することにより、 タンク 8 内の水位を自動制御することも可能である。 In addition, a refill tank that communicates with the tank 8 via an electromagnetic valve is provided inside the main body 2, and the water level in the tank 8 is automatically controlled by inputting the output of the water level sensor 70 to the sequencer controller 38. It is also possible.
すなわち、 水位センサ 7 0により検出された水位が所定の水位より高ければ、 シーケンサ制御部 3 8によりヒータ 3 0の設定温度を高くする一方、 7位センサ 7 0により検出された水位が所定の水位より低ければ、 シーケンサ制御部 3 8に より電磁弁を開制御して捕充タンク内の水をタンク 8に供給し、 所定の水位に達 すると電磁弁を閉制御することによりタンク内の水位を常時所定のレベルに維持 することができる。 That is, if the water level detected by the water level sensor 70 is higher than the predetermined water level, the set temperature of the heater 30 is increased by the sequencer controller 38, while the water level detected by the seventh level sensor 70 is changed to the predetermined water level. If it is lower, the solenoid valve is controlled to open by the sequencer control unit 38 to supply the water in the collection tank to the tank 8, and when the water level reaches a predetermined level, the solenoid valve is closed to control the water level in the tank. It can be maintained at a predetermined level at all times.
図 1 6は、 本発明にかかる簡易トイレ Τの別の変形例を示しており、 L字状に 折曲したチューブ 7 4の一端をタンク 8側壁に取り付けるとともに、 その他端の 下方に水分回収容器 7 6を設置し、 水分回収容器 7 6底部にヒータ 7 8を取り付 けたものである。 FIG. 16 shows another modification of the simple toilet か か る according to the present invention. One end of an L-shaped tube 74 is attached to the side wall of the tank 8, and a water collecting container is provided below the other end. A water recovery container 76 is provided with a heater 78 at the bottom.
この構成によれば、 タンク 8内のある一定量を超えた水分はチューブ 7 4を介 して水分回収容器 7 6にオーバーフローするので、 水分回収容器 7 6に回収され た水分をヒータ 7 8により蒸発させることができる。 したがって、 ゥオシユレッ ト等の水を必要とする β等にも対応することができる。 なお、 水分回収容器 7 6は上部に設けられた蓋により密閉され、 本体開口部 2 8と連通している。 According to this configuration, the water in the tank 8 exceeding a certain amount overflows into the water recovery container 76 via the tube 74, so that the water recovered in the water recovery container 76 is heated by the heater 78. Can be evaporated. Therefore, it is possible to cope with β, etc. that require water such as ユ oscillets. The water recovery container 76 is closed by a lid provided at the top, and communicates with the main body opening 28.
図 1 7は、 本 明にかかる簡易トイレ Τのさらに別の変形例を示しており、 タ ンク 8の長手方向中心と回転ドラム 1 0の回輊軸 1 2の軸心を偏心させ、 便座 4 の開口部 4 aから見て回転方向上流側のタンク 8と回転ドラム 1 0との間のタリ ァランスを下流側のクリアランスより大きく設定したものである。 FIG. 17 shows still another modification of the simple toilet according to the present invention, in which the center of the tank 8 in the longitudinal direction and the axis of the rotating shaft 12 of the rotating drum 10 are eccentric, and the toilet seat 4 The clearance between the tank 8 on the upstream side in the rotation direction and the rotating drum 10 when viewed from the opening 4a is set to be larger than the clearance on the downstream side.
タンク 8と回転ドラム 1 0との間のクリアランスが同じ場合には、 チップがタ ンク 8と回転ドラム 1 0との間に入り込み、 回転ドラム 1 0のトルクが大きくな る可能性があるが、 図 1 7の構成によれば、 タンク 8と回転ドラム 1 0との間に 入り込んだチップは、 下流側に搬送されるにつれてクリアランスが大きくなつて いることから、 回転ドラム 1 0のトルクが大きくなる虞はない。 If the clearance between tank 8 and rotating drum 10 is the same, There is a possibility that the torque of the rotating drum 10 may increase due to the penetration between the tank 8 and the rotating drum 10. However, according to the configuration of FIG. Since the clearance of the chips is increased as the chips are transported downstream, there is no possibility that the torque of the rotating drum 10 increases.
また、 図 1 8は、 本発明にかかる簡易トイレ Tのさらに別の変形例を示してお り、 本体 2の両側部に突出部 8 0を設け、 この突出部 8 0の各々に肘掛 8 2を取 り付けたものである。 FIG. 18 shows still another modification of the simple toilet T according to the present invention, in which protrusions 80 are provided on both sides of the main body 2, and each of the protrusions 80 has an armrest 82. It is attached.
この構成では、 脱臭器を突出部 8 0の一つに収容することができ、 この脱臭器 と排気ファンの排気口とをダクトで接続して、 脱臭器を通過した空気を室内に排 出することができる。 In this configuration, the deodorizer can be housed in one of the protrusions 80, and the deodorizer and the exhaust port of the exhaust fan are connected by a duct, and the air that has passed through the deodorizer is exhausted to the room. be able to.
実施の形態 2 . Embodiment 2
上述した実施の形態 1にかかる簡易トイレ Tにおいては、 回転ドラム 1 0を回 転軸 1 2とともに一体的に回転させる構成としたが、 本実施の形態では、 回転ド ラム 1 0は回転軸 1 2の回りを自由に回転できる構成にするとともに回転軸 1 2 に蓋体 8 4を固定し、 この蓋体 8 4を介して回転ドラム 1 0を回転させるように している。 In the simple toilet T according to the first embodiment described above, the rotary drum 10 is integrally rotated with the rotary shaft 12. However, in the present embodiment, the rotary drum 10 is In addition, the cover 2 is configured to be freely rotatable around 2 and a cover 84 is fixed to the rotating shaft 12, and the rotating drum 10 is rotated via the cover 84.
さらに詳述すると、 図 1 9 A及び図 1 9 Bに示されるように、 回転ドラム 1 0 の開口部 1 0 aを遮蔽する遮蔽手段としての蓋体 8 4は回転軸 1 2に固定される とともに、 開口部 1 0 aの片側の回転ドラム 1 0の内面に板状あるいはピン状の 蓋体当接用ストッパ 8 6が固定されている。 蓋体 8 4の外周面は円弧状に形成さ れ、 その曲率半径は回転ドラム 1 0の円筒部内面の曲率半径と略等しく設定され ている。 また、 タンク 8内に回転自在に支承される回転体としての蓋体 8 4は、 回転ドラム 1 0の回転中心と同じ回転中心を有している。 More specifically, as shown in FIGS. 19A and 19B, a lid 84 serving as a shielding means for shielding the opening 10 a of the rotating drum 10 is fixed to the rotating shaft 12. In addition, a plate-shaped or pin-shaped stopper contact stopper 86 is fixed to the inner surface of the rotary drum 10 on one side of the opening 10a. The outer peripheral surface of the lid 84 is formed in an arc shape, and the radius of curvature thereof is set substantially equal to the radius of curvature of the inner surface of the cylindrical portion of the rotating drum 10. The lid 84 as a rotating body rotatably supported in the tank 8 has the same rotation center as the rotation center of the rotating drum 10.
また、 回転軸 1 2を回転駆動する撹拌モータ 1 6に対しては、 正転及び逆転の 制御が行われ、 回転ドラム 1 0の円筒部には、 開口部 1 0 aを除くすべての部位 に水分通過穴 5 6が所定の間隔で形成されている。 なお、 実施の形態 1において、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aの縁部に取り付けられた一対のチップ保持部材 6 4及びタンク 8内面に取り付けられた遮蔽部材 6 8は、 本実施の形態では設けら れていない。 上記構成の簡易トイレ Tは、 待機時においては、 回転方向における蓋体 8 4の 上流側縁部がストツバ 8 6に当接するとともに、 待機位置検出スィッチ 6 7によ り蓋体 8 4が真上に位置するよう制御されている。 この状態では、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aは蓋体 8 4に遮蔽されており、 臭気の外部への漏れが極力抑制 されている。 In addition, forward and reverse rotation control is performed on the stirring motor 16 that rotationally drives the rotating shaft 12, and the cylindrical portion of the rotating drum 10 is provided in all portions except the opening 10 a. Water passage holes 56 are formed at predetermined intervals. In the first embodiment, the pair of chip holding members 64 attached to the edge of the opening 10a of the rotary drum 10 and the shielding member 68 attached to the inner surface of the tank 8 are the same as those of the present embodiment. It has not been established. In the simple toilet T having the above configuration, at the time of standby, the upstream edge of the lid 84 in the rotating direction comes into contact with the stopper 86, and the lid 84 is directly above by the standby position detection switch 67. It is controlled to be located at. In this state, the opening 10a of the rotating drum 10 is shielded by the lid 84, and leakage of odor to the outside is suppressed as much as possible.
使用に際し、 電源スィッチ 4 4を押下した後、 便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を外し、 便座蓋 6を開けると、 第 1の撹拌制御スィッチ 3 4が O F Fとなり、 撹拌モータ 1 6が逆方向に回転して、 回転軸 1 2を介して蓋体 8 4を矢印とは逆方向に略 9 0 ° 回転させる。 この時の蓋体 8 4の停止位置は使用位置検出スィッチ 6 9に より設定されている。 また、 回転ドラム 1 0は回転することなく静止状態を維持 しているので、 その開口部 1 0 aが上方に開口し、 便座 4の開口部 4 aと回転ド ラム 1 0の内部空間が連通し、 用便が可能となる。 ここでは、 第 1の撹拌制御ス イッチ 3 4は、 蓋体 8 4の開操作を検出する手段として作用する。 In use, after pressing the power switch 44, remove the clasp 32 of the toilet seat lid 6 and open the toilet seat lid 6, the first stirring control switch 34 turns off, and the stirring motor 16 turns in the opposite direction. By rotating, the lid 84 is rotated by approximately 90 ° in the direction opposite to the arrow via the rotary shaft 12. The stop position of the lid 84 at this time is set by the use position detection switch 69. Also, since the rotating drum 10 is kept stationary without rotating, its opening 10a opens upward, and the opening 4a of the toilet seat 4 communicates with the internal space of the rotating drum 10. And the service becomes available. Here, the first stirring control switch 34 acts as a means for detecting the opening operation of the lid 84.
用便が済み、 便座蓋 6を閉じると第 2の撹拌制御スィツチ 3 6が O Nとなり、 さらに便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を掛けると第 1の撹拌制御スィッチ 3 4が O Nとな るとともにタイマによる計時が開始する。 その結果、 撹拌モータ 1 6が正転方向 に回転を開始し、 回転軸 1 2が略 9 0 ° 回転すると、 回転方向における蓋体 8 4の上流側縁部がストッパ 8 6に当接し、 蓋体 8 4により回転ドラム 1 0の開口 部 1 0 aを実質的に遮蔽するとともに、 蓋体 8 4により回転ドラム 1 0が回転せ しめられ、 蓋体 8 4と回転ドラム 1 0がー体的に回転する。 When the toilet has been used and the toilet seat lid 6 is closed, the second stirring control switch 36 is turned ON, and when the catch 32 of the toilet seat lid 6 is further engaged, the first stirring control switch 34 is turned ON and the timer is turned on. The clocking by starts. As a result, the stirring motor 16 starts rotating in the normal rotation direction, and when the rotating shaft 12 rotates approximately 90 °, the upstream edge of the lid 84 in the rotating direction comes into contact with the stopper 86 and the lid 86 is rotated. The opening 84 a of the rotating drum 10 is substantially shielded by the body 84, and the rotating drum 10 is rotated by the lid 84, so that the lid 84 and the rotating drum 10 are physically connected. To rotate.
その後の動作及び他の構成は実施の形態 1と同一なので、 その説明は省略する。 また、 図 1 5乃至図 1 8に示される変形例は、 本実施の形態にも採用可能であ る。 Subsequent operations and other configurations are the same as those in the first embodiment, and a description thereof will not be repeated. Further, the modifications shown in FIGS. 15 to 18 can be adopted in the present embodiment.
上記構成は、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aを蓋体 8 4で遮蔽した状態で回転 ドラム 1 0を回転させるため、 チップが回転ドラム 1 0より外部に飛び出すこと なく撹拌を行うことができる。 In the above configuration, since the rotating drum 10 is rotated while the opening 10a of the rotating drum 10 is covered with the lid 84, the chips can be stirred without jumping out of the rotating drum 10 to the outside. it can.
また、 図 1 9 A及び図 1 9 Bの簡易トイレ Tにおいては、 回転ドラム 1 0の開 口部 1 0 aを遮蔽する蓋体 8 4は、 回転ドラム 1 0の内面に沿って所定角度回転 する構成であつたが、 図 2 O A及び図 2 0 Bに示されるように、 円弧状に形成さ れた蓋体 8 4の内周面の曲率半径を回転ドラム 1 0の円筒部外面の曲率半径と略 等しく設定し、 蓋体 8 4を回転ドラム 1 0の外面に沿って所定角度回転すること により、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aを開閉することもできる。 Further, in the simple toilet T shown in FIGS. 19A and 19B, the lid 84 that covers the opening 10 a of the rotating drum 10 rotates a predetermined angle along the inner surface of the rotating drum 10. However, as shown in Fig. 2OA and Fig. 20B, The radius of curvature of the inner peripheral surface of the closed lid 84 is set substantially equal to the radius of curvature of the outer surface of the cylindrical portion of the rotating drum 10, and the lid 84 is rotated by a predetermined angle along the outer surface of the rotating drum 10. Accordingly, the opening 10a of the rotating drum 10 can be opened and closed.
この場合、 蓋体 8 4のストツノ、 ° 8 6は回転ドラム 1 0の外面に取り付けられる。 その他の構成は、 図 1 9 A及び図 1 9 Bに示される構成と同一なので、 その説明 は省略する。 In this case, the horn 86 of the lid 84 is attached to the outer surface of the rotating drum 10. The other configuration is the same as the configuration shown in FIGS. 19A and 19B, and a description thereof will be omitted.
また、 上記構成の簡易トレィ Tにおいて、 図 2 1 A、 図 2 I B及ぴ図 2 2に示 されるように、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 a周縁にシール 1 0 0を取り付ける と、 回転ドラム 1 0と蓋体 8 4との気密性が向上し、 チップや臭気等の外部への 排出を防止することができる。 Further, in the simple tray T having the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 21A, FIG. 2 IB and FIG. 22, when the seal 100 is attached to the periphery of the opening 10 a of the rotating drum 10, The airtightness between the rotating drum 10 and the lid 84 is improved, and chips and odors can be prevented from being discharged to the outside.
しかしながら、 簡易トイレ Tを使用するに際し、 回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 aを開放するために蓋体 8 4を所定の角度回転させると、 蓋体 8 4と回転ドラム 1 0との摩擦力により回転ドラム 1 0が蓋体 8 4とともに回転する可能性がある。 そこで、 図 2 1 A、 図 2 1 B及ぴ図 2 2に示されるように、 必要に応じ回転ド ラム 1 0の回転をllhし所定の位置に保持するドラム保持用ストツバ 1 0 2を本 体 2の内部に取り付けるとともに、 ストッパ 1 0 2の先端が嵌入する係止部材 1 0 4を回転ドラム 1 0の端面に取り付けている。 また、 図 2 O A及び図 2 0 Bに 示される待機位置検出スィツチ 6 7及び使用位置検出スィツチ 6 9に代えて、 待 機位置検出センサ 1 0 6及び使用位置検出センサ 1 0 8を所定の間隔 (例えば、 回転軸 1 2を中心として約 9 0 ° の間隔) でタンク 8に取り付けるとともに、 待機位置検出センサ 1 0 6及び使用位置検出センサ 1 0 8と対向して蓋体 8 4の 位置を検出するための被検出部材 (例えば、 検出用金物) 1 1 0を回転軸 1 2の 一端に取り付けている。 However, when the simple toilet T is used, when the lid 84 is rotated by a predetermined angle in order to open the opening 10 a of the rotating drum 10, the frictional force between the lid 84 and the rotating drum 10 is increased. Therefore, there is a possibility that the rotating drum 10 rotates together with the lid 84. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 21A, FIG. 21B and FIG. 22, a drum holding stopper 102 for rotating the rotating drum 10 llh and holding it in a predetermined position is provided as necessary. Attaching to the inside of the body 2, a locking member 104 into which the tip of the stopper 102 fits is attached to the end face of the rotating drum 10. Also, instead of the standby position detection switch 67 and the use position detection switch 69 shown in FIG. 2OA and FIG. 20B, the standby position detection sensor 106 and the use position detection sensor 108 are provided at predetermined intervals. (For example, at an interval of about 90 ° around the rotation axis 12), and attached to the tank 8, and the position of the lid 84 facing the standby position detection sensor 106 and the use position detection sensor 108 is determined. A member to be detected (for example, a hardware for detection) 110 for detection is attached to one end of the rotating shaft 12.
上記構成の簡易トイレ Tの動作につき、 図 2 1乃至図 2 4及び図 2 5のフロー チャートを参照して、 以下説明する。 The operation of the simple toilet T having the above configuration will be described below with reference to the flow charts of FIGS. 21 to 24 and 25.

At this time, the first and second stirring control switches 34 and 36 are in the ON state, the stopper 102 for holding the drum is in the OFF state, and the tip of the stopper 102 is the locking member 104. Has been fitted. The lid 84 is moved by the standby position detection sensor 106 as shown in FIG. It is held at the standby position shown in 1A and FIG. 21B, and shields the opening 10a of the rotating drum 10. Further, the exhaust fan 24 and the heater 30 are also turned on at the same time when the power switch 44 is turned on.
ここで、 便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を外すと第 1の撹拌制御スィッチ 3 4が O F F となり (ステップ S 2 1 ) 、 撹拌モータ 1 6が逆方向に回転して、 回転軸 1 2を 介して蓋体 8 4を矢印 (図 2 1 B参照) とは反対方向に略 9 0 ° 回転させる。 この時の蓋体 8 4の停止位置は使用位置検出センサ 1 0 8により設定される。 ま た、 図 2 3 A及び図 2 3 Bに示されるように、 回転ドラム 1 0はストッパ 1 0 2 により停止状態に保持されており、 その開口部 1 0 aが上方に位置しているので、 便座蓋 6を開けると用便が可能となるとともに、 第 2の撹拌制御スィッチ 3 6が O F Fとなる (ステップ S 2 2 ) 。 Here, when the catch 32 of the toilet seat lid 6 is removed, the first stirring control switch 34 is turned off (step S 21), and the stirring motor 16 rotates in the reverse direction, via the rotating shaft 12. Rotate the lid 84 approximately 90 ° in the direction opposite to the arrow (see Fig. 21B). The stop position of the lid 84 at this time is set by the use position detection sensor 108. Further, as shown in FIGS. 23A and 23B, the rotating drum 10 is held in a stopped state by the stopper 102, and the opening 10a thereof is located at an upper position. When the toilet seat lid 6 is opened, the toilet becomes available, and the second stirring control switch 36 is turned off (step S22).
用便が済み、 ステップ S 2 3において、 便座蓋 6を閉じると第 2の撹拌制御ス イッチ 3 6が O Nとなり、 さらに便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を掛けると第 1の撹拌制 御スィッチ 3 4が O Nとなるとともに、 ストツパ 1 0 2に通電されて O Nとなり、 ストッパ 1 0 2の先端が後退して、 係止部材 1 0 4との係合が解除される。 この 時、 タイマによる計時が開始する。 また、 第 1及び第 2の撹拌制御スィッチ 3 4 , 3 6が両方とも O Nにならないと撹拌が開始せず、 便座蓋 6が開いた状態では撹 拌が開始しないので、 人体の一部が回転物により挟まれるようなことがなく、 安 全に使用できる。 When the toilet has been used and the toilet lid 6 is closed in step S23, the second stirring control switch 36 is turned on, and when the fastener 3 of the toilet lid 6 is further engaged, the first stirring control switch 3 is turned on. At the same time as 4 is turned on, the stopper 102 is energized and turned on, the tip of the stopper 102 is retracted, and the engagement with the locking member 104 is released. At this time, counting by the timer starts. Also, if both the first and second stirring control switches 34, 36 are not turned on, stirring does not start, and stirring does not start when the toilet seat lid 6 is open, so that a part of the human body rotates. It can be used safely without being pinched by objects.
ステップ S 2 4において、 撹拌モータ 1 6が回転を開始し、 回転ドラム 1 0の 回転に伴って、 回転ドラム 1 0に投入された排泄物とチップとを撹拌する。 次の ステップ S 2 5にお 、て、 タイマによる計時が所定時間 T 1 (例えば、 3分) を 経過したかどう力が判定され、 所定時間 T 1が経過したと判定されると、 ステツ プ S 2 6において、 撹拌モータ 1 6の回転が停止し、 回転ドラム 1 0は待機位置 検出センサ 1 0 6により待機位置に設定される。 この時、 ストッパ 1 0 2が O F Fとなって、 その先端が係止部材 1 0 4に嵌入するので、 回転ドラム 1 0は待機 位置に保持される。 In step S24, the stirring motor 16 starts rotating, and the excrement and the chips put into the rotating drum 10 are stirred with the rotation of the rotating drum 10. In the next step S25, it is determined whether the time measured by the timer has passed a predetermined time T1 (for example, 3 minutes), and if it is determined that the predetermined time T1 has elapsed, the step is performed. In S26, the rotation of the stirring motor 16 is stopped, and the rotating drum 10 is set to the standby position by the standby position detection sensor 106. At this time, the stopper 102 becomes OFF and its tip fits into the locking member 104, so that the rotating drum 10 is held at the standby position.
ステップ S 2 7〜S 3 1の動作は、 図 1 3のフローチャートにおけるステップ S 7〜S 1 1の動作と基本的に同じなので、 その説明は省略するが、 2 7〜 S 3 1において、 回転ドラム 1 0の撹拌中はストッパ 1 0 2が O Nとなつ て係止部材 1 0 4との係合が解除される一方、 回転ドラム 1 0の停止中はストッ ノ、° 1 0 2が O F Fとなって係止部材 1 0 4と係合する点が、 S 7〜 S 1 1の動作 と異なっている。 The operation of steps S27 to S31 is basically the same as the operation of steps S7 to S11 in the flowchart of FIG. In steps 7 to S31, while the rotating drum 10 is being stirred, the stopper 102 is turned ON to release the engagement with the locking member 104, while the rotating drum 10 is stopped while the rotating drum 10 is stopped. The difference from the operations of S7 to S11 is that ° 102 is turned off and engages with the locking member 104.
また、 図 2 6に示されるように、 さらに別の位置検出センサ 1 1 2をタンク 8 に取り付けてもよい。 Further, as shown in FIG. 26, another position detection sensor 112 may be attached to the tank 8.
詳述すると、 回転ドラム 1 0の回転による撹拌が終了する時に、 図 2 1 Bに示 されるように、 被検出部材 1 1 0が待機位置検出センサ 1 0 6と対向した位置で 回転ドラム 1 0が停止すると、 チップの 1貧性力により回転ドラム 1◦の内部でチ ップが傾斜状となり、 排泄物の収容空間が場所により不均一になる可能性がある 力 撹拌終了時 (回転ドラム 1 0の回転終了時) に、 被検出部材 1 1 0が待機位 置検出センサ 1 0 6を通過して、 回転ドラム 1 0の回転停止位置検出センサ 1 1 2と対向する位置まで到達し、 その後、 待機位置検出センサ 1 0 6まで戻る (逆 回転する) ように回転ドラム 1 0を制御することにより、 待機位置にある回転ド ラム 1 0の内部のチップを略水平状態に保持することができる。 More specifically, when the stirring by the rotation of the rotating drum 10 is completed, as shown in FIG. 21B, the rotating drum 1 is positioned at a position where the detected member 110 faces the standby position detecting sensor 106. When 0 stops, the chips become inclined inside the rotating drum 1 ◦ due to the poor power of the chips, and the space for storing excrement may be uneven at some places. At the end of rotation of 10), the detected member 110 passes through the standby position detection sensor 106 and reaches a position opposite to the rotation stop position detection sensor 111 of the rotating drum 10; Then, by controlling the rotating drum 10 to return to the standby position detection sensor 106 (reverse rotation), the chip inside the rotating drum 10 at the standby position can be held in a substantially horizontal state. it can.
さらに、 上述した構成では、 蓋体 8 4と回転ドラム 1 0のラツチ機構は設けら れていないが、 図 2 7 A及び図 2 7 Bに示されるように、 蓋体 8 4に取り付けら れたフック 1 1 4と、 回転ドラム 1 0に取り付けられたキャッチ 1 1 6とで構成 されたラツチ機構を設けることもできる。 Furthermore, in the configuration described above, the latch mechanism for the lid 84 and the rotating drum 10 is not provided, but as shown in FIG. 27A and FIG. 27B, it is attached to the lid 84. A latch mechanism including a hook 114 and a catch 116 attached to the rotating drum 10 may be provided.
このラッチ機構により、 簡易トイレ Tの使用後、 蓋体 8 4が図 2 7 Aに示され る位置から図 2 7 Bに示される位置まで回転して回転ドラム 1 0の開口部 1 0 a を遮蔽すると、 フック 1 1 4とキャッチ 1 1 6とが互いに嵌合し、 蓋体 8 4は回 転ドラム 1 0に一体的に保持される。 したがって、 ストッノ、° 1 0 2に通電されて 係止部材 1 0 4との係合が解除され、 回転ドラム 1 0の回転による撹拌中に、 何 らかの原因で回転ドラム 1 0の回転が停止しても、 開口部 1 0 aが開放すること がないので、 回転ドラム 1 0内の排泄物ゃチップが回転ドラム 1 0の外部にこぼ れることがなく、 原動機 (撹拌モータ 1 6 ) の負荷が増大することもない。 撹拌後、 簡易トイレ Tを使用する場合、 便座蓋 6の留め金 3 2を外すと第 1の 撹拌制御スィッチ 3 4が O F Fとなるとともに、 フック 1 1 4とキャッチ 1 1 6 との嵌合が解除され、 回転ドラム 1 0が静止した状態で蓋体 8 4のみが図 2 7 B に示される位置から図 2 7 Aに示される位置まで回転移動する。 With this latch mechanism, the lid 84 is rotated from the position shown in FIG. 27A to the position shown in FIG. 27B after the use of the simple toilet T, so that the opening 10a of the rotating drum 10 is opened. When shielded, the hooks 114 and the catches 116 engage with each other, and the lid 84 is integrally held by the rotating drum 10. Therefore, the stot is supplied with electricity to ° 102, the engagement with the locking member 104 is released, and during the stirring by the rotation of the rotating drum 10, the rotation of the rotating drum 10 is stopped for some reason. Even when stopped, the opening 10a does not open, so that excrement and chips in the rotating drum 10 do not spill outside the rotating drum 10, and the motor (stirring motor 16) There is no increase in load. When the toilet T is used after stirring, when the catch 32 of the toilet seat lid 6 is removed, the first stirring control switch 3 4 is turned off, and the hook 1 1 4 and the catch 1 1 6 With the rotating drum 10 stationary, only the lid 84 rotates from the position shown in FIG. 27B to the position shown in FIG. 27A.

上述したタンクと回転ドラムの二重構造は、 従来の簡易トイレにも採用するこ とができる。 The above-described double structure of the tank and the rotating drum can be employed in a conventional simple toilet.
さらに詳述すると、 図 3 O A及ぴ図 3 O Bは従来の簡易トイレのタンク内を二 重構造にしたものであり、 この簡易トイレは、 本体 (図示せず) と、 本体内部に 取り付けられ上部に開口部 8 8 aが形成されたタンク 8 8と、 タンク 8 8内に回 転自在に取り付けられた回転軸 9 0と、 回転軸 9 0に固定され回転軸と一体的に 回転して微生物が担持されたチップと排泄物とを撹拌する撹拌ブレード 9 2とを 備えている。 タンク 8 8は略円弧状の底部を有し、 底部の外周部にはタンク 8 8 を加熱するためのヒータ (図示せず) が取り付けられるとともに、 底部内には底 部の曲率半径より大きい曲率半径を有しチップを通過させない大きさの多数のパ ンチ穴 9 4 aが所定の間隔で形成された分離板 9 4が接合されている。 More specifically, Fig. 3 OA and Fig. 3 OB show the conventional simple toilet tank with a double structure inside the tank. This simple toilet has a main body (not shown) and an upper part attached to the main body. A tank 88 having an opening 88a formed therein, a rotating shaft 90 rotatably mounted in the tank 88, a microorganism fixed to the rotating shaft 90 and rotating integrally with the rotating shaft. And an agitating blade 92 for agitating the chip carrying the waste and excrement. The tank 88 has a substantially arc-shaped bottom, and a heater (not shown) for heating the tank 88 is attached to the outer periphery of the bottom, and the inside of the bottom has a curvature larger than the radius of curvature of the bottom. A separation plate 94 having a large number of punch holes 94a having a radius and a size not allowing passage of chips is formed at predetermined intervals.
この構成によれば、 タンク 8 8の底部に多数のパンチ穴 9 4 aを有する分離板 9 4が設けられているので、 収納容器としてのタンク 8 8に投入された有機廃棄 物から水分を容易に分離させることができ、 二重構造に特有の上述した効果を奏 することができる。 すなわち、 タンク 8 8底部と分離板 9 4との間の空間は水分 保持室として、 分離板 9 4により分離された水分を保持し、 ヒータの発熱により 保持室に保持された水分は蒸発し、 微生物に適切な温度環境を提供することがで さる。 According to this configuration, since the separation plate 94 having a large number of punched holes 94 is provided at the bottom of the tank 88, water can be easily removed from the organic waste put into the tank 88 as a storage container. Thus, the above-described effects unique to the double structure can be obtained. That is, the space between the bottom of the tank 88 and the separator 94 is The holding chamber holds the water separated by the separation plate 94, and the water held in the holding chamber evaporates due to the heat generated by the heater, thereby providing an appropriate temperature environment for the microorganisms.
また、 図 3 1 A及び図 3 1 Bは、 タンク 8 8内に回転自在に取り付けられた回 転軸 9 0に、 図 3 0 A及ぴ図 3 0 Bの撹拌ブレードとは異なる別の撹拌素子 9 2 aを取り付けた簡易トイレを示しており、 このタンク 8 8の底部には、 図 3 O A 及び図 3 0 Bの簡易トイレと同様、 分離板 9 4が接合されている。 その他の構成 は、 図 3 O A及び図 3 O Bの簡易トイレと同じなので、 その説明は省略する。 なお、 図 3 0 A及び図 3 0 Bの撹拌プレード 9 2及ぴ図 3 1 A及ぴ図 3 1 Bの 撹拌素子 9 2 aの回転作動制御は図 1 3における回転ドラム 1 0の作動と基本的 に同じであるが、 ステップ S 1の待機状態では、 そのまま使用可能であるが、 撹 拌中の時にステップ S 1に戻ると、 撹拌モータが停止して使用状態となる。 以上、 本発明にかかる簡易トイレについて説明してきたが、 この簡易トイレは 人間の排泄物のみならず、 他の動物の排泄物を処理できるものであることは言う までもない。 In addition, FIGS. 31A and 31B show another agitating blade different from the agitating blade of FIGS. 30A and 30B on a rotating shaft 90 rotatably mounted in a tank 88. This figure shows a simple toilet equipped with an element 92a, and a separation plate 94 is joined to the bottom of the tank 88, similarly to the simple toilet shown in FIGS. 3OA and 30B. The rest of the configuration is the same as that of the simple toilet shown in Fig. 3OA and Fig. 3OB, so the description is omitted. The rotation operation control of the stirring element 92 of FIGS. 30A and 30B and the stirring element 92 of FIGS. 31A and 31B is the same as the operation of the rotating drum 10 in FIG. It is basically the same, but it can be used as it is in the standby state of step S1, but if it returns to step S1 during stirring, the stirring motor stops and enters the use state. The simple toilet according to the present invention has been described above, but it goes without saying that this simple toilet can process not only human excrement but also excrement of other animals.
また、 本発明は簡易トイレに限定されるものではなく、 生ごみ処理装置等の他 の有機廃棄物処理装置にも適用可能である。 Further, the present invention is not limited to simple toilets, but can be applied to other organic waste treatment apparatuses such as garbage disposal apparatuses.
本発明は、 以上説明したように構成されているので、 以下に記載されるような 効果を奏する。 The present invention is configured as described above, and has the following effects.
微生物を担持したチップが投入される回転ドラムをタンク内部に回転自在に取 り付け、 回転ドラムの開口部から投入された有機廃棄物をチップとともに回転さ せて撹拌するようにしたので、 有機廃棄物とチップとの撹拌が一様かつ確実に行 われ、 チップの変形や磨耗が抑制されるとともに、 撹拌モータの負荷や消費電力 が少なく、 静音でコンパクトな有機廃棄物処理装置を提供することができる。 また、 回転ドラムの所定の部位に多数の穴を所定の間隔で形成したので、 チッ プの保温あるいは保湿を確実に行うことができる。 The rotating drum into which chips carrying microorganisms are loaded is rotatably mounted inside the tank, and the organic waste introduced through the opening of the rotating drum is rotated with the chips and agitated. It is possible to provide a quiet and compact organic waste treatment device that stirs the material and chips uniformly and reliably, suppresses chip deformation and wear, and reduces the load and power consumption of the stirring motor. it can. Moreover, since a large number of holes are formed at predetermined intervals in predetermined portions of the rotating drum, it is possible to surely keep the chips warm or moist.
また、 使用時には回転ドラムの回転を停止して開口部を真上に配置する一方、 待機時にはパンチ穴が形成されていない部位を真上に配置し、 開口部を遮蔽部材 により遮蔽するようにしたので、 装置からの臭気を極力抑制することができると ともに、 回転ドラム内水分の蒸発による便座蓋への結露を防止することができる。 あるいは、 使用時には上記回転ドラムの回転を停止して上記回転ドラムの開口 部を真上に配置するとともに、 駆動モータを逆転させ蓋体を所定の角度回転させ て開口部を開放する一方、 待機時には回転ドラムの開口部を蓋体により遮蔽する ようにしたので、 装置からの臭気を極力抑制することができるとともに、 回転ド ラム内水分の蒸発による便座蓋への結露を防止することができる。 In use, the rotation of the rotating drum is stopped and the opening is placed directly above, while the part where no punch hole is formed is placed directly above and the opening is covered with a shielding member during standby. Therefore, if the odor from the device can be suppressed as much as possible In both cases, condensation on the toilet seat lid due to evaporation of water in the rotating drum can be prevented. Alternatively, in use, the rotation of the rotary drum is stopped and the opening of the rotary drum is arranged directly above, and the drive motor is rotated in the reverse direction to rotate the lid at a predetermined angle to open the opening. Since the opening of the rotary drum is shielded by the lid, odor from the device can be suppressed as much as possible, and dew condensation on the toilet seat lid due to evaporation of moisture in the rotary drum can be prevented.
また、 回転ドラムにチップを保持するための複数のチップ保持部材を所定の間 隔で取り付けたので、 チップの変形や磨耗を極力抑えつつ有機廃棄物を十分に撹 拌することができる。 Further, since a plurality of chip holding members for holding the chips on the rotating drum are attached at predetermined intervals, it is possible to sufficiently stir the organic waste while minimizing the deformation and wear of the chips.
また、 本体に取り付けられた二つの撹拌制御スィッチが共に O Nの場合に、 回 転ドラムの回転を開始するようにしたので、 安全性の高い有機廃棄物処理装匱を 提供することができる。 In addition, when the two agitation control switches attached to the main body are both ON, the rotation of the rotating drum is started, so that a highly safe organic waste treatment device can be provided.
また、 回転ドラムの回転開始後、 所定の時間が経過すると回転ドラムを停止し、 回転ドラムの停止後、 回転ドラムを所定の時間間欠的に回転させるようにしたの で、 有機廃棄物が +分に撹拌され、 その分解を促進することができる。 In addition, the rotation drum is stopped after a predetermined time has elapsed after the rotation of the rotation drum has started, and after the rotation drum has stopped, the rotation drum is intermittently rotated for a predetermined time. To promote its decomposition.
また、 タンクを加熱するためのヒータと、 ヒータの設定温度を調整するための 設定温度調整手段を設けたので、 使用場所や使用環境に応じてチップの温度を適 温に保持することができ、 有機廃棄物の分解を促進することができる。 In addition, a heater for heating the tank and a set temperature adjusting means for adjusting the set temperature of the heater are provided, so that the temperature of the chip can be maintained at an appropriate temperature according to the place of use and the use environment. Decomposition of organic waste can be promoted.
また、 タンクに周囲空気を取り入れるための吸入口とタンク内の臭気を排出す るための排気口を形成し、 排気口に排気ファンを取り付けたので、 排気ファンに よりタンク内の臭気を外部に排出することができる。 In addition, an intake port for taking in ambient air into the tank and an exhaust port for exhausting odors in the tank are formed, and an exhaust fan is attached to the exhaust port. Can be discharged.
また、 回転ドラムの回転開始後、 所定の時間が経過すると、 すべての機器を停 止するようにしたので、 音の静かな有機廃棄物処理装置を提供することができる。 また、 タンク内の水位を検出する水位センサをタンクに取り付けるとともに、 Τ位センサにより検出された水位を表示するための水位表示計を本体に取り付け たので、 タンク内の水位を目視しながら、 タンク内の水分の量を適宜調整するこ とができ、 チップの保湿を確実に行うことができる。 In addition, all the devices are stopped when a predetermined time has elapsed after the rotation of the rotating drum has started, so that an organic waste treatment device with a quiet sound can be provided. In addition, a water level sensor that detects the water level in the tank was attached to the tank, and a water level indicator to display the water level detected by the water level sensor was attached to the main unit. The amount of water in the inside can be appropriately adjusted, and the chip can be surely kept moist.
また、 タンクに水分回収容器を取り付け、 タンク内の所定の水位を超えた水分 を水分回収容器にオーバフローさせるとともに、 水分回収容器に回収した水分を ヒータにより蒸発させるようにしたので、 ゥオシユレット等の水を必要とする機 器等にも対応することができる。 In addition, a water collection container is attached to the tank, and water that exceeds a predetermined water level in the tank overflows to the water collection container, and the water collected in the water collection container is collected. Since it is made to evaporate by a heater, it can be used for equipment that requires water such as oscillet.
また、 タンクの長手方向中心と回転ドラムの回転軸心を偏心させ、 タンクの開 口部から見て回転方向上流側のタンクと回転ドラムとの間のクリアランスを下流 側のクリアランスより大きく設定したので、 クリアランス部に入り込んだチップ により回転ドラムのトルクが大きくなる虞はなく、 音が静かである。 In addition, the center of the tank in the longitudinal direction and the rotation axis of the rotary drum are eccentric, and the clearance between the tank and the rotary drum on the upstream side in the rotation direction as viewed from the opening of the tank is set to be larger than the clearance on the downstream side. However, there is no fear that the torque of the rotating drum is increased by the chips that enter the clearance, and the sound is quiet.
さらに、 有機廃棄物処理装置を簡易トイレとして使用するとともに、 本体の両 側部に突出部を設け、 突出部の各々に肘掛を取り付けたので、 使い勝手のよい簡 易トイレを提供することができる。 Furthermore, since the organic waste treatment apparatus is used as a simple toilet, and projections are provided on both sides of the main body, and armrests are attached to each of the projections, an easy-to-use simple toilet can be provided.
また、 突出部の一方に脱臭器を収容するとともにダクトを接続し、 脱臭器を通 過した空気を外部に排出するようにしたので、 トイレからの臭気を極力低減する ことができる。 In addition, a deodorizer is housed in one of the protruding parts and a duct is connected to discharge air passing through the deodorizer to the outside, so that odor from the toilet can be reduced as much as possible.
