Waste food treatment apparatus

A waste food treatment apparatus comprising a motor unit, a container covered on said motor unit, a spindle turned by said motor unit, a screw rod disposed in said container and coupled to said spindle and having a spiral blade raised around the periphery and being turned to squeeze water out of waste food being put in said container, a scraper turned by said spindle to scrape out food dregs, and a food dreg propelling mechanism controlled to propel food dregs, permitting food dregs to be scraped out by said scraper, wherein said food dreg propelling mechanism comprises a food dreg propelling block fixedly secured to said scraper at the bottom and spaced above the spiral blade of said screw rod and having an outward propelling flange raised around the periphery, a circular block fixedly secured to said scraper at the top and coupled to said spindle, said circular block comprising a longitudinal center through hole extending through said scraper and said food dreg propelling block, at least one longitudinal coupling groove extending through said scraper and said food dreg propelling block and longitudinally disposed in communication with said longitudinal center through hole at one side along its length, and an annular groove around the periphery, a handle holder fixedly secured to said container and having a horizontal pivot, and a substantially L-shaped handle turned about the horizontal pivot of said handle holder and adapted for lifting said circular block, said scraper, and said food dreg propelling block for permitting food dregs to be scraped out by said scraper and said food dreg propelling block, said handle having one end extending out of said container through a hole thereof and an opposite end terminating in a coupling fork coupled to the annular groove of said circular block by ball bearings for permitting said circular block to be turned by said spindle relative to said coupling fork;

• said screw rod has a longitudinal center through hole and at least one longitudinal coupling groove disposed in communication with the longitudinal center through hole of said screw rod at one side along its length;
• said spindle has at least one longitudinal coupling rib raised from the periphery along the length and respectively engaged with the at least one longitudinal coupling groove of said screw rod and the at least one longitudinal coupling groove of said circular block to stop said screw rod and said circular block and said scraper and said food dreg propelling block from rotary motion relative to said spindle, for permitting said circular block and said scraper and said food dreg propelling block to be moved axially along said spindle.
