ABSTRACT:
A water actuated garbage disposer has an impeller chamber with an impeller having a plurality of fin-like projections on its periphery. A water jet at the generally planar faces of each of the projections imparts the driving force to the impeller. An outlet duct is disposed substantially in line with the water jet stream, thereby facilitating the removal of spent water from the impeller chamber. The impeller is coupled to an abrasion disc having a plurality of implanted abrading blades which may be arcuate, radial or chordal. When radial the blades may be centrifugally operated. The impeller is balanced and weighted to obtain a pre-selected moment of inertia and mass in order to optimize the operation of the disposer. The disposer has upper, central and lower separable chambers for ease in maintenance and assembly, the lower chamber containing the impeller. The upper chamber may contain abrading blades secured to interior walls.
