[0035] See Figures 1 to 3, this embodiment provides a safe coffee grinder, which includes a housing 1, a grinding box 2, a grinding assembly 3, an upper cover assembly 4 and a protection assembly 5. The grinding box 2, the grinding assembly 3 and the protection assembly 5 are all arranged inside the housing 1. The upper cover assembly 4 is provided with a trigger part. The protection assembly 5 includes a micro switch 51, a transmission part and an elastic reset part. The micro switch 51 is electrically connected to the control circuit of the grinding assembly 3. The transmission part is arranged between the micro switch 51 and the upper cover assembly 4. When the upper cover assembly 4 covers the opening of the housing 1, the trigger part pushes the transmission part to press against the elastic piece 511 of the micro switch 51 to trigger the micro switch 51. The elastic reset part is used to reset the transmission part when the upper cover assembly 4 is opened so that the transmission part leaves the elastic piece 511 of the micro switch 51.

[0036] Due to the setting of the protection assembly 5, the protection assembly 5 includes a micro switch 51, a transmission part and an elastic reset part. The upper cover assembly 4 is provided with a trigger part. When the upper cover assembly 4 covers the opening of the housing 1, the trigger part pushes the transmission part to press against the elastic piece 511 of the micro switch 51 to trigger the micro switch 51. The micro switch 51 is electrically connected to the control circuit of the grinding assembly 3. At this time, the grinding assembly 3 can be turned on; when the upper cover assembly 4 is opened, the elastic reset part resets the transmission part so that the transmission part leaves the elastic piece 511 of the micro switch 51. At this time, the micro switch 51 is not triggered and the grinding assembly 3 stops operating to prevent the grinding assembly from still rotating when the upper cover assembly of the coffee grinder is opened, thereby improving the safety of the coffee grinder.

[0037] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 1 to 6, the grinding box 2 has an upper-opening grinding cavity 21. The upper cover assembly 4 includes a cover body 41 and a fixing member 43. A brim 432 is provided at the edge of the fixing member 43. The fixing member 43 is placed on the top surface of the grinding box 2 through the brim 432 and covers the opening of the grinding cavity 21. The triggering part is a bump 433 provided at the bottom of the brim 432. The transmission member is a pressing column 52 provided below the bump 433. The elastic piece 511 of the microswitch 51 is located below the pressing column 52. The elastic resetting member is a first spring 53 sleeved outside the pressing column 52. An installation seat 54 is provided in the machine shell 1. The microswitch 51 is installed on the installation seat 54. The pressing column 52 is telescopically arranged on the installation seat 54. An abutting portion 521 is provided on the outer wall of the pressing column 52. The two ends of the first spring 53 respectively abut against the abutting portion 521 and the installation seat 54. When the upper cover assembly 4 is closed at the opening of the machine shell 1, the bump 433 of the fixing member 43 pushes the pressing column 52 downward to press the elastic piece 511 of the microswitch 51, thereby triggering the microswitch 51. The microswitch 51 is electrically connected to the control circuit of the grinding assembly 3. At this time, the grinding assembly 3 can be turned on, and the first spring 53 is compressed. When the upper cover assembly 4 is opened, the fixing member 43 is pulled out. At this time, the resilience of the first spring 53 resets the pressing column 52 so that the pressing column 52 leaves the elastic piece 511 of the microswitch 51. At this time, the microswitch 51 is not triggered, and the grinding assembly 3 stops operating to ensure that the grinding assembly can be prevented from still rotating when the cover of the bean grinder is opened, thereby improving the safety of the bean grinder. In fact, the installation seat 54 is not limited to Figure 4 the described structure, and other shaped structures can also be adopted as long as they can install the microswitch 51 and telescopically install the pressing column 52.

[0038] Preferably, referring to Figures 3 to 6 , a ring-shaped flange 22 is provided at the top of the grinding box 2. A through hole 221 corresponding to the position of the pressing column 52 is provided on the flange 22. The through hole 221 can accommodate the bump 433. The upper end of the pressing column 52 extends into the through hole 221. The setting of the through hole 221 enables the bump 433 of the fixing member 43 to be aligned with and press against the upper end of the pressing column 52 when the upper cover assembly 4 is installed, thereby ensuring that the microswitch 51 can be triggered when the upper cover assembly 4 is closed. In addition, the upper end of the pressing column 52 extends into the through hole 221, which can ensure the stability of the up-and-down movement of the pressing column 52, play a limiting role for the pressing column 52, and prevent the pressing column 52 from generating horizontal displacement.

[0039] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 7, in this embodiment, the grinding assembly 3 includes a fixed grinding disc 31, a movable grinding disc 32, a bracket 34, and a driving motor 33. The bracket 34 has a main body portion 341 and a rotating shaft 342 protruding from the bottom surface of the main body portion 341. The main body portion 341 is placed in the grinding chamber 21. The movable grinding disc 32 is fixed to the bottom surface of the main body portion 341 and is located above the fixed grinding disc 31. The rotating shaft 342 passes through the movable grinding disc 32 and the fixed grinding disc 31 and extends towards the bottom of the grinding chamber 21. The output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 passes through the bottom of the grinding box 2 and is in transmission connection with the rotating shaft 342. When the microswitch 51 is triggered, the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 rotates and drives the bracket 34 and the movable grinding disc 32 to rotate through the rotating shaft 342, so as to grind the coffee beans in the grinding chamber 21.

[0040] Preferably, the rotating shaft 342 is sleeved outside the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33. The upper end of the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 is hexagonal, and the upper end of the inner cavity of the rotating shaft 342 is hexagonal. The upper end of the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 is inserted into the upper end of the inner cavity of the rotating shaft 342. Since the rotating shaft 342 of the bracket 34 is sleeved outside the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 and the rotating shaft 342 is not fixedly connected to the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33, and the movable grinding disc 32 is fixed to the bottom surface of the main body portion 341 of the bracket 34, when cleaning is required, the bracket 34 can be directly pulled out from the grinding chamber 21, and the bracket 34 together with the movable grinding disc 32 is removed, which is convenient for cleaning the movable grinding disc 32. Moreover, after the bracket 34 and the movable grinding disc 32 are removed, the grinding chamber 21 and the fixed grinding disc 31 in the grinding chamber 21 can be cleaned to avoid affecting the grinding effect; the upper end of the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 is hexagonal, and the upper end of the inner cavity of the rotating shaft 342 is hexagonal. The upper end of the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 is inserted into the upper end of the inner cavity of the rotating shaft 342, so that the rotating shaft 342 rotates with the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33, and the rotating shaft 342 will not rotate relative to the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33.

[0041] Preferably, referring to Figure 1 , Figures 7 to 9 , the upper cover assembly 4 further includes a lifting member 42. The lifting member 42 is installed at the center of the inner top surface of the cover body 41. A threaded hole 431 is provided at the center of the fixing member 43. The middle part of the lifting member 42 is screwed into the threaded hole 431. The lower end of the lifting member 42 abuts against the top surface of the bracket 34. The upper end of the output shaft 331 of the driving motor 33 has a cavity 332 with an upper opening. A second spring 35 is provided in the cavity 332 to always press the bracket 34 against the upper cover assembly 4. When the cover body 41 rotates, it drives the lifting member 42 to rotate relative to the fixing member 43 to drive the bracket 34 to move up and down, so as to adjust the distance between the fixed grinding disc 31 and the movable grinding disc 32.

[0042] The second spring 35 can always press the bracket 34 against the upper cover assembly 4, ensuring that the upper cover assembly 4 can drive the bracket 34 to move up and down to adjust the distance between the fixed grinding disc 31 and the moving grinding disc 32. The greater the distance between the fixed grinding disc 31 and the moving grinding disc 32, the coarser the ground coffee powder; the smaller the distance between the fixed grinding disc 31 and the moving grinding disc 32, the finer the ground coffee powder.

[0043] Since the second spring 35 is arranged in the cavity 332 of the output shaft 331 of the drive motor, and the rotating shaft 342 is sleeved outside the output shaft 331 of the drive motor 33, the second spring 35 can be hidden inside the rotating shaft 342, avoiding contact between the second spring 35 and the coffee powder in the grinding chamber 21, thus keeping the second spring 35 clean and reducing the cleaning difficulty of the coffee grinder.

[0044] The fixing member 43 is threadedly connected to the lifting member 42 through its threaded hole 431, ensuring the stability of the lifting of the lifting member 42. When the cover body 41 rotates, the lifting member 42 located at the center of the inner top surface of the cover body 41 rotates with the cover body 41. Under the cooperation of the threaded hole 431 of the fixing member 43, the lifting member 42 moves up and down relative to the fixing member 43 while rotating, and at the same time, the lifting member 42 drives the bracket 34 to move up and down to adjust the distance between the fixed grinding disc 31 and the moving grinding disc 32. In use, first, rotate the cover body 41 according to the brewing method and personal taste requirements. The cover body 41 drives the bracket 34 to move up and down through the lifting member 42 to adjust the distance between the fixed grinding disc 31 and the moving grinding disc 32. Then, put coffee beans into the grinding chamber 21, start the drive motor 33, and the drive motor 33 drives the bracket 34 and the moving grinding disc 32 arranged on the bracket 34 to rotate. Under the grinding action of the moving grinding disc 32 and the fixed grinding disc 31, coffee powder is formed.

[0045] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 1 、 Figures 7 to 9 The upper cover assembly 4 further includes a bolt 47. The bolt 47 passes through the cover body 41 and is screwed to the lifting member 42 to install the lifting member 42 at the center of the inner top surface of the cover body 41. In order to hide the bolt 47, a cover plate 48 can be provided on the top surface of the cover body 41 to cover the bolt 47. The cover plate 48 is snap-fitted on the top surface of the cover body 41 for easy installation. In addition, the brim 432 of the fixing member 43 is connected to the top surface of the grinding box 2 through screws 46. The number of screws 46 is not limited. In this embodiment, the fixing member 43 and the grinding box 2 are connected by four screws 46.

[0046] Preferably, referring to Figure 1 、 Figures 7 to 10, the upper cover assembly 4 further includes a chuck 44 disposed inside the cover body 41. A clamping hole 441 is provided in the middle of the chuck 44. The upper end of the lifting member 42 is clamped in the clamping hole 441. A plurality of clamping teeth 442 are provided on the side wall of the chuck 44, and a clamping strip 411 is provided on the inner wall of the cover body 41. The clamping strip 411 is clamped in the space between two adjacent clamping teeth 442. The clamping strip 411 is clamped in the space between two adjacent clamping teeth 442, and a clamping groove is formed between two adjacent clamping teeth 442. The clamping strip 411 is clamped in the clamping groove to fix the chuck 44 and the cover body 41 to each other. The chuck 44 and the lifting member 42 are fixed to each other, which can prevent the lifting member 42 from not rotating when the cover body 41 rotates, so as to ensure that the cover body 41 can drive the chuck 44 and the lifting member 42 to rotate when rotating.

[0047] Preferably, referring to Figure 1 , Figures 7 to 9 , the upper cover assembly 4 further includes a mating ring 45 disposed between the lifting member 42 and the bracket 34. A central portion of the bottom surface of the lifting member 42 extends downward to form an extension portion 421. The extension portion 421 extends into the inner hole of the mating ring 45. The top surface of the mating ring 45 abuts against the bottom surface of the lifting member 42, and the bottom surface of the mating ring 45 abuts against the top surface of the bracket 34. During the rotation and vertical movement of the lifting member 42, the mating ring 45 does not rotate, but the mating ring 45 will move up and down with the lifting member 42 under the action of the second spring 35, which can prevent the lifting member 42 from directly abutting against the bracket 34 and causing the bracket 34 to be worn.

[0048] Preferably, referring to Figure 1 , Figures 7 to 9 , the upper cover assembly 4 further includes an annular decorative cover 49. The decorative cover 49 is sleeved outside the fixing member 43. The bottom of the cover body 41 is located inside the ring of the decorative cover 49. The outer wall of the decorative cover 49 is aligned with the outer wall of the housing 1. The setting of the decorative cover 49 covers the gap between the cover body 41 and the fixing member 43 to prevent water from entering, and the outer wall of the decorative cover 49 is aligned with the outer wall of the housing 1, making the appearance of the coffee grinder more tidy.

[0049] Preferably, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 6, one side of the grinding box 2 is provided with a feed inlet 23, and the other side is provided with a discharge outlet 24. Both the feed inlet 23 and the discharge outlet 24 communicate with the grinding chamber 21.
