Abstract

The invention discloses a pepper mill which comprises a hollow containing unit, a milling unit and an opening and closing unit, wherein the milling unit is assembled at the bottom of the containing unit and is used for milling pepper. The milling unit is provided with a spraying hole positioned at the bottom. The opening and closing unit comprises an opening and closing piece arranged below the milling unit, the opening and closing piece can move up and down and move between a closing position and an opening position, when the opening and closing piece is positioned at the closing position, the opening and closing piece blocks the spraying hole from the outer space outside the pepper mill, and when the opening and closing piece is positioned at the opening position, the spraying hole is communicated with the outer space outside the pepper mill. The spraying hole is blocked in a way that the opening and closing unit moves to the closing position, thereby preventing pepper powder remained in the milling unit from dropping outside after the pepper mill is used.
