Description




BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION




The present invention relates to incinerator and more particularly to a miniature garbage incinerator which can dispose the wastes and filthy mud synchronously.




Typical miniature garbage incinerator (as shown in

FIG. 1

) comprises a main incinerator


10


and a filthy mud furnace


16


. The main incinerator


10


has a motor


13


for controlling a sliding door


11


where is the inlet of the incinerator


10


, a burner in the lower portion


12


, a guide pipe


14


at a top communicating to the filthy mud furnace


16


which has an inlet


18


for the entrance of the filthy mud into the furnace


16


and a motor


17


operating a shaft


19


for stirring the filthy mud inside the furnace to be quickly dried up. When ignite the burner, the fire burns the wastes inside the main incinerator


10


and the superfluous heat enter into the furnace


16


via the guide pipe


14


to heat the filthy mud which under the stirring of the shaft


19


will be dried up into ashes. However, this type of garbage incinerator wastes a great deal of energy and would not completely dry up the mud but causes environmental contaminant.




SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION




The present invention has a main object to provide a miniature garbage incinerator which uses helical air current to build up a whirlpool heat circulation inside the incinerator in order to effectively burn up the wastes and synchronously dry up the filthy mud into ashes.




According, the miniature garbage incinerator of the present invention comprises a base, a cover on the top of the base, a pot shaped furnace disposed in the center of the base to define a flame circulation space therearound, a helical pipe communicating to the bottom of the base and a fire source for supplying whirlpool flame into the flame circulation space to burn the wastes and filthy mud inside the furnace, a motor on the central top of the cover for actuating a rotatable rods in the center of the incinerator having a length reached the bottom of the pot shaped furnace, a transverse rod across the cover having a bearing at center to wrap the rotatable rods, a plurality of stirring rod spacedly and perpendicularly connected the lower portion of the rotatable rods, a heat revolving pipe including a blower connected between the cover and the base for leading the heat from the cover back into the base, an inlet at a lateral side of the cover including a spiral propeller tube for feeding the garbage and filthy mud into the furnace, a chimney communicated with the flame circulation space for exhausting the smoke out of the flame circulation space, an ashes collector at a lateral side of the base having spiral propeller tube connected to the furnace for collecting the ashes from the furnace, a pressure adjustment valve in a top of the cover and a pair of guide plate on the lateral sides of the base for protecting the blower and the ashes collector. The garbage incinerator can be used individually or combined with a filthy mud furnace and a heat stove in order to increase the capacity of the incinerator.




The present invention will become more fully understood by reference to the following detailed description thereof when read in conjunction with the attached drawings.

In operation, first feed the garbage and filthy mud into the incinerator through the spiral propeller tube


29


and the inlet


212


and simultaneously feed the filthy mud into the filthy mud furnace


30


through the inlet


37


, secondly, turn on the motors


281


and


33


to stir the garbage and the filthy mud, thirdly, set the heat sources on fire and simultaneously turn on the blowers


251


,


341


and


351

30


and the heat stove


40


. In addition to the whirlpool flame inside the incinerator and both the heat stove


40


and the incinerator supplying the heat into the filthy mud furnace


30


, the burning capacity is greatly increased. When the filthy mud inside the filthy mud furnace


30


is dried and becomes powder, it will be transported into the incinerator through the pipe


36


, the spiral propeller tube


29


and the inlet


212


for further burning. After that the garbage and the filthy mud become ashes, it can be transported into the ashes collector


271


from the bottom of the pot shaped furnace through the spiral propeller tube


271


for further disposal. The specification relating to the above embodiment should be construed as exemplary rather than as limitative of the present invention, with many variations and modifications being readily attainable by a person of average skill in the art without departing from the spirit or scope thereof as defined by the appended claims and their legal equivalents.
