Then, the detected value of the exhaust humidity of the exhaust humidity detecting means 32 is compared with the set value (104). The set value is set to approximately 90% RH, and it is determined whether or not the detected value of the exhaust humidity of the exhaust humidity detecting means 32 is equal to or more than the set value (106). If the determination (106) is NO, the process is shifted to OFF (108) of the heater 36, and thereafter, the process returns to the detection (102) of the exhaust humidity by the exhaust humidity detecting means 32, and the determination (106). Is YES,
The process proceeds to determination (110) as to whether or not the input port 8 of the main body 4 of the garbage processing machine 2 is open. If the determination (110) as to whether or not the input port 8 is open is YES, the O
The process is shifted to FF (108), and thereafter, the process returns to the detection of exhaust humidity (102) by the exhaust humidity detecting means 32, and it is determined whether the input port 8 is open (11).
If 0) is NO, the process proceeds to ON (112) of the heater 36, and it is determined (114) whether or not the heating sensor 38 is operating. If the determination (114) is NO, the process returns to the detection (102) of the exhaust humidity by the exhaust humidity detecting means 32. If the determination (114) is YES, an alarm (not shown) issues an alarm. After the alarm is issued (116) and the heater 36 is turned off (108), the exhaust humidity detecting means 3
The process returns to the detection (102) of the exhaust humidity by the step S2. That is, when the heating sensor 38 is operating, an overheated state (also referred to as "heating") is detected, and an alarm is issued and the heater 36 is turned off.
The problem is solved by this. Thus, when the detection signal from the exhaust humidity detecting means 32 for detecting the humidity of the exhaust gas is input and the humidity of the exhaust gas exceeds a predetermined value, the control means 14 controls the inflow outside air heating means. 34, the outside air flowing into the processing tank 6 is heated to control the water content in the processing tank 6. That is, even when the humidity of the outside air is high, the inside of the processing tank 6 is heated by the heated outside air. , A sufficient amount of water vapor can be discharged from the vessel, necessary water is removed, and the drying capacity in the processing tank 6 is maintained in a good state. Can be performed smoothly, and the processing capacity of the garbage processing machine 2 can be maintained. When the inside of the processing tank 6 is dry, the inflow outside air heating means 34 is not driven, so that there is no fear that the outside air flowing into the processing tank 6 is heated more than necessary. In addition, overdrying of garbage can be suppressed, which is practically advantageous. Further, since the exhaust humidity detecting means 32 is disposed at a position downstream of the exhaust filter 24 of the ventilation means 10, the exhaust humidity detecting means 32 is provided after dust and dew are removed by the exhaust filter 24. Will lead to
The exhaust humidity detecting means 32, which is susceptible to dust and dew condensation, can be reliably protected, the service life of the exhaust humidity detecting means 32 can be prolonged, and the reliability can be improved. Furthermore, the structure can be complicated by providing only the exhaust humidity detecting means 32 for detecting the humidity of the exhaust gas and the inflow outside air heating means 34 for heating the outside air flowing into the processing tank 6. Therefore, it is easy to manufacture, the cost can be kept low, and it is economically advantageous. Further, since the inflow outside air heating means 34 is disposed at the outside air inlet 16, it is possible to prevent pests from entering the processing tank 6 by the heating function of the inflow outside air heating means 34. It is possible that there is no fear that pests will propagate in the treatment tank 6. As described above in detail, according to the present invention, the main body, the processing tank provided in the main body, and the openable opening for charging garbage into the processing tank are provided. A garbage disposer having ventilation means for ventilating the inside of the treatment tank, stirring means for stirring the garbage in the treatment tank, and control means for driving and controlling the ventilation means and the stirring means; Exhaust humidity detecting means for detecting the humidity of the exhaust gas to be provided is provided downstream of the exhaust filter of the ventilation means, and inflow outside air heating means for heating the outside air flowing into the processing tank is provided. When the humidity of the exhaust gas exceeds a predetermined value after the detection signal is input, the function of heating the outside air flowing into the processing tank by the inflow outside air heating means and controlling the moisture in the processing tank is added to the control means. Since it was provided,
When the humidity of the exhaust gas is equal to or more than a predetermined value, the control unit drives the inflow outside air heating unit to heat the outside air flowing into the processing tank, and can control the moisture in the processing tank.
Necessary water is removed and the drying capacity in the processing tank is maintained in a good condition. There is no possibility of dew formation in the processing tank, and the action of microorganisms is performed smoothly, and the garbage processing machine is processed. Can maintain ability. Further, when the humidity of the exhaust gas is less than the predetermined value, the inflow outside air heating means is not driven, so that there is no fear that the outside air flowing into the processing tank is heated more than necessary, and the over-drying of garbage is performed. Can be suppressed, which is practically advantageous. Further, by disposing the exhaust humidity detecting means at a position downstream of the exhaust filter of the ventilation means, the dust and dew are removed by the exhaust filter, and then reach the exhaust humidity detecting means. The weak exhaust humidity detecting means can be reliably protected, the service life of the exhaust humidity detecting means can be prolonged, and the reliability can be improved. Furthermore, the configuration can be realized only by providing the exhaust humidity detecting means for detecting the humidity of the exhaust gas and the inflow outside air heating means for heating the outside air flowing into the processing tank, without complicating the configuration. It is easy to manufacture, can keep costs low, and is economically advantageous.
