Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of kitchen utensils, and particularly to an electric grinder. Background Art

[0002] At present, the processed pepper powder, salt and pepper powder, etc. purchased on the market have a great difference in flavor from freshly ground seasonings. Therefore, more and more consumers choose to use pepper grinders. Buy whole pepper grains and then put them into the grinder for grinding to obtain natural and fresh pepper powder, salt and pepper powder, etc.

[0003] Existing electric grinders come in various forms, and consumers can choose a grinder product suitable for themselves according to actual needs. Related prior art such as the Chinese patent application "An Electric Grinder", application number: CN202221341721.5; discloses a housing, inside which a grinding mechanism, a speed reduction mechanism and a power mechanism are arranged. It also includes an abrasive bin. The grinding mechanism is arranged at one end of the abrasive bin, and the power mechanism and the speed reduction mechanism are arranged at the other end of the abrasive bin. A feeding port is arranged on the abrasive bin, and a bin cover is arranged opposite to the feeding port. By rotating the bin cover, the feeding port of the abrasive bin can be opened or closed. The electric grinder provided by the above utility model can easily open or close the feeding port of the abrasive bin by rotating the bin cover, with simple and convenient operation. After the bin cover rotates to close the feeding port of the abrasive bin, the sealing performance inside the abrasive bin is good, and no material will flow out easily, and the bin cover will not fall off easily.

[0004] Currently, the abrasive bins of electric grinders on the market are basically arranged above the grinding mechanism. Under the action of gravity, the pepper grains in the abrasive bin will fall to the grinding mechanism and be ground into powder by the grinding mechanism. However, due to the consideration of the aesthetic appearance of the grinder, the capacity of its abrasive cavity is limited and cannot be used to store the particles to be ground. Instead, users need to pour the particles to be ground before each use, which is somewhat inconvenient to use. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this application is to provide an electric grinder, further optimize the structural setting of the storage cavity, increase the space of the storage cavity, and facilitate the use of users.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this application is: an electric grinder, including a housing, a relatively independent installation cavity and a storage cavity for storing particles to be ground are arranged inside the housing. A power device and a control device are arranged in the installation cavity. The upper part of the storage cavity is located on one side of the installation cavity, and the lower part of the storage cavity is located below the installation cavity. A grinding assembly is installed inside the lower part of the storage cavity, and the transmission rod of the power device passes through the installation cavity and is connected to the grinding assembly.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present application are as follows. Different from the prior art where the material storage cavity is coaxially arranged with the power device and the grinding assembly, the conventional grinder is slender in shape. In the present application, the structure of the material storage cavity is designed as an unconventional structure. The upper part of the material storage cavity is located on one side of the installation cavity. This part of the structural design greatly expands the accommodation space of the material storage cavity, enabling it to hold a sufficient amount of particles to be ground, which is convenient for users to use at any time. The lower part of the material storage cavity is located below the installation cavity, and a grinding assembly is installed inside the lower part of the material storage cavity. Then, this structural design can enable the grinding assembly to be connected to the transmission rod of the power device. The particles to be ground located in the material storage cavity will also fall to the grinding assembly in the lower part for grinding due to their own gravity, realizing the grinding function of the present application.

[0008] In some embodiments of the present application, the longitudinal section of the material storage cavity is in an L-shaped structure, the overall installation cavity is in a cylindrical structure, and the upper part of the material storage cavity is arranged parallel to the installation cavity. In the present application, the structure of the material storage cavity is reasonably planned. On the one hand, the space of the material storage cavity is made as large as possible, and on the other hand, the overall volume of the housing is made as small as possible.

[0009] In some embodiments of the present application, the transverse section of the upper part of the housing is in a kidney-shaped structure and is divided into an installation cavity and a material storage cavity, and the transverse section of the lower part of the housing is in a kidney-shaped structure as the material storage cavity; the overall housing is in a kidney-shaped cylindrical structure, which is the preferred solution of the present application and has the advantages of reasonable overall structure and large storage space.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present application, the control device is arranged near the arc edge of the housing and the top surface of the housing. A control button is arranged on the surface of the housing and is connected to the control device. The control button is located on the side where the arc surface of the housing is located; a charging interface is arranged at the top surface of the housing, and an indicator light is arranged on the side where the arc surface of the housing is located. Both the charging interface and the indicator light are connected to the control device. The position settings of the control device and the control button are the preferred structural solutions of the present application. By reasonably arranging the position of the control button, the user experience is good. By reasonably arranging the position of the control device, the wiring inside the housing is reduced.

[0011] In some embodiments of the present application, a mounting seat is arranged at the bottom of the lower cavity of the material storage cavity. An installation slot is arranged inside the mounting seat, and the installation slot penetrates through the top surface of the mounting seat and the bottom surface of the housing. The grinding assembly is installed in the installation slot, and the particles to be ground pass through the grinding assembly under the action of gravity and are output outside the housing.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, the installation notch is integrally in a cylindrical structure. The grinding assembly includes a grinding outer ring and a grinding inner core. The grinding outer ring is fixed to the inner wall surface of the installation notch, and the grinding inner core is connected to the transmission rod of the power device. In the present application, by adding an installation seat structure, the stable installation of the grinding assembly in the storage cavity is achieved.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present application, a feeding port is provided on the surface of the housing, a material channel is provided on the installation seat, and the material channel communicates the storage cavity with the feeding port; a visual window in the form of a long strip made of a transparent material is provided on the surface of the housing. The above structural design facilitates the user to introduce the particles to be ground into the storage cavity, and at the same time, the number of particles to be ground inside can be observed through the visual window.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, the present application further includes a storage bin cover. The storage bin cover is snap-connected to the material channel. One end of the storage bin cover extends into the material channel, the bottom surface of the storage bin cover is flush with the top surface of the installation seat, and the other end of the storage bin cover covers the feeding port; the storage bin cover is rotatably snap-connected to the material channel, and the end of the storage bin cover located outside the feeding port is a hand-held portion in the shape of a straight bar. The setting of the storage bin cover realizes the opening and closing of the feeding port. After the feeding port is closed by the storage bin cover, the particles to be ground will be restricted in the storage cavity and will not fall. The storage bin cover with the above structure is a preferred solution of the present application, which is convenient for the user to use and improves the user experience.

[0015] In some embodiments of the present application, the outer peripheral wall of the bottom surface of the housing extends downward to form a kidney-shaped ring. The bottom surface of the kidney-shaped ring forms a placement surface, and the bottom surface of the kidney-shaped ring is lower than the grinding assembly and the storage bin cover. In the present application, by adding a kidney-shaped ring, the grinding assembly and the storage bin cover inside are protected. At the same time, the kidney-shaped ring serves as the bottom surface for placing the entire electric grinder, has higher planar accuracy, and can better adapt to the placement table.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, the present application is further equipped with a nut adjuster. The nut adjuster is installed on the transmission rod of the power device and is connected to the grinding inner core. The nut adjuster is threadedly connected to the transmission rod of the power device. The end of the nut adjuster exposed outside the housing is a hand-held portion in the shape of a straight bar. Rotating the nut adjuster drives the grinding inner core to move along the axial direction of the transmission rod. That is to say, rotating the nut adjuster causes the grinding inner core to have a relative displacement relative to the grinding outer ring, thereby changing the gap between the grinding inner core and the grinding outer ring, and realizing the adjustable grinding fineness of the particulate matter.

[0017] On the basis of conforming to the common knowledge in the art, the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0026] An electric grinder, as Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure: it includes a housing 1, in which a relatively independent installation cavity 2 and a storage cavity 3 for storing particles to be ground are provided. A power device 4 and a control device 5 are arranged in the installation cavity 2. The upper part of the storage cavity 3 is located on one side of the installation cavity 2. This structural design very well expands the accommodation space of the storage cavity 3, enabling it to accommodate a sufficient amount of particles to be ground, which is convenient for users to use irregularly. The lower part of the storage cavity 3 is located below the installation cavity 2. A grinding assembly 6 is installed in the lower part of the storage cavity 3. The transmission rod of the power device 4 passes through the installation cavity 2 and is connected to the grinding assembly 6. Then this structural design can realize the connection between the grinding assembly 6 and the transmission rod of the power device 4. And the particles to be ground located in the storage cavity 3 will also fall to the lower grinding assembly 6 for grinding due to their own gravity, realizing the grinding function of this application.

[0027] Different from the prior art in which the storage cavity 3, the power device 4 and the grinding assembly 6 are coaxially arranged, making the conventional grinder slender. In this application, the structure of the storage cavity 3 is designed as an unconventional structure, further optimizing the structural arrangement of the storage cavity 3, increasing the space of the storage cavity 3, and facilitating user use.

[0028] Preferably, the longitudinal section of the storage cavity 3 is in an L-shaped structure, the installation cavity 2 is in an overall cylindrical structure, and the upper part of the storage cavity 3 is arranged parallel to the installation cavity 2. In this application, the structure of the storage cavity 3 is reasonably planned. On the one hand, the space of the storage cavity 3 is made as large as possible, and on the other hand, the overall volume of the housing 1 is made as small as possible.

[0029] The transverse section of the upper part of the housing 1 is in a kidney-shaped structure and is divided into the installation cavity 2 and the storage cavity 3. The transverse section of the lower part of the housing 1 is in a kidney-shaped structure for the storage cavity 3.

[0030] Embodiment 2, as Figure 1 、 Figure 4 shown, the control device 5 is arranged close to the arc edge and the top surface of the housing 1. Control buttons 7 are arranged on the surface of the housing 1 and are connected to the control device 5. The control buttons 7 are located on the side where the arc surface of the housing 1 is located. A charging interface 9 is arranged at the top surface of the housing 1, and an indicator light 8 is arranged on the side where the arc surface of the housing 1 is located. Both the charging interface 9 and the indicator light 8 are connected to the control device 5. The position settings of the control device 5 and the control buttons 7 are the preferred structural schemes of this application. The position of the control buttons 7 is reasonably arranged, and the user experience is good. The position of the control device 5 is reasonably arranged, reducing the wiring inside the housing 1.

[0031] A mounting base 10 is provided at the bottom of the lower cavity of the material storage cavity 3. An installation slot 11 is provided in the mounting base 10. The installation slot 11 penetrates through the top surface of the mounting base 10 and the bottom surface of the housing 1. The grinding assembly 6 is installed in the installation slot 11. The particles to be ground pass through the grinding assembly 6 under the action of gravity and are then output outside the housing 1.

[0032] The overall shape of the installation slot 11 is a cylindrical structure. The grinding assembly 6 includes a grinding outer ring and a grinding inner core. The grinding outer ring is fixed to the inner wall surface of the installation slot 11. The grinding inner core is connected to the transmission rod of the power device 4. In this application, by adding the structure of the mounting base 10, the stable installation of the grinding assembly 6 in the material storage cavity 3 is realized.

[0033] Other contents of the second embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment.

[0034] Embodiment 3, as Figures 1 to 4 shown, a feeding port 12 is provided on the surface of the housing 1. A material channel 13 is provided on the mounting base 10. The material channel 13 communicates the material storage cavity 3 with the feeding port 12; a visual window 14 made of a transparent material is provided on the surface of the housing 1 in a strip-shaped structure. The above structural design facilitates the user to introduce the particles to be ground into the material storage cavity 3, and at the same time, the number of particles to be ground inside can be observed through the visual window 14.

[0035] This application also includes a material storage bin cover 15. The material storage bin cover 15 is snap-connected to the material channel 13. One end of the material storage bin cover 15 extends into the material channel 13. The bottom surface of the material storage bin cover 15 is flush with the top surface of the mounting base 10. The other end of the material storage bin cover 15 covers the feeding port 12; the material storage bin cover 15 is rotatably snap-connected to the material channel 13. One end of the material storage bin cover 15 located outside the feeding port 12 is a hand-held portion in a shape of a straight line. The setting of the material storage bin cover 15 realizes the opening and closing of the feeding port 12. After the feeding port 12 is closed by the material storage bin cover 15, the particles to be ground will be restricted in the material storage cavity 3 and will not fall. The material storage bin cover 15 with the above structure is the preferred solution of this application, which is convenient for users to use and improves the user experience.

[0036] This application is also equipped with a nut adjuster 16. The nut adjuster 16 is installed on the transmission rod of the power device 4 and is connected to the grinding inner core. The nut adjuster 16 is threadedly connected to the transmission rod of the power device. One end of the nut adjuster 16 exposed outside the housing is a hand-held portion in a shape of a straight line. Rotating the nut adjuster 16 drives the grinding inner core to move along the axial direction of the transmission rod. That is to say, rotating the nut adjuster 16 makes the grinding inner core displace relative to the grinding outer ring, thereby changing the gap between the grinding inner core and the grinding outer ring, and realizing the adjustable grinding fineness of the particulate matter.

[0037] The outer peripheral wall of the bottom surface of the housing 1 extends downward to form a kidney-shaped ring 1a. The bottom surface of the kidney-shaped ring 1a constitutes a placement surface, and the bottom surface of the kidney-shaped ring 1a is lower than the grinding assembly 6 and the storage bin cover 15. In this application, by adding the kidney-shaped ring 1a, the grinding assembly 6 and the storage bin cover 15 inside are protected. At the same time, the kidney-shaped ring 1a serves as the bottom surface for placing the entire electric grinder, has higher planar accuracy, and can better adapt to the placement tabletop.
