[0045] The embodiment of the present application discloses a medicine grinder.

[0046] See also Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 , an embodiment of the medicine grinder provided in the embodiments of the present application includes:

[0047] The medicine grinding head 3, the medicine grinding mortar 4 and the driving component 1.

[0048] The medicine grinding head 3 and the medicine grinding mortar 4 are made of metal materials. The medicine grinding head 3 can extend into the medicine grinding mortar 4 and grind together with the medicine grinding mortar 4.

[0049] The driving assembly 1 is connected to the medicine grinding head 3 and the medicine grinding mortar 4 and is used to drive the medicine grinding head 3 and / or the medicine grinding mortar 4 to move so as to grind the medicine between the medicine grinding head 3 and the medicine grinding mortar 4 .

[0050] The medicine grinding head 3 and the medicine grinding mortar 4 are designed independently and made of metal materials. When grinding medicine, it can effectively solve the technical problem that when existing medicine grinders made of plastic materials grind hard tablets, the medicine ground out is prone to residual plastic chips and plastic powder, which poses a safety hazard.

[0051] The above is the first embodiment of the medicine grinder provided in the embodiment of the present application. The following is the second embodiment of the medicine grinder provided in the embodiment of the present application. For details, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 .

[0052] Based on the above implementation plan:

[0053] Furthermore, if Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, a medicine storage container 5 is also included.

[0054] The medicine grinding head 3 is fixed to one end of a medicine storage container 5, which has an access opening at the other end. The drive assembly 1 is connected to the medicine storage container 5 and is used to drive the medicine storage container 5 to move the medicine grinding head 3. The design of the medicine storage container 5 allows the medicine grinding machine to store medicine, achieving diversified functions and more convenient use.

[0055] The medicine storage container 5 of the present application can be designed to have openings at both ends. Correspondingly, the medicine grinding head 3 is fixed to one end opening of the medicine storage container 5, while the other end opening of the medicine storage container 5 forms a take-out opening. In this design, the medicine grinding head 3 and the medicine storage container 5 together form a medicine storage cavity.

[0056] The medicine storage container 5 of the present application can also be designed to be closed at one end and open at the other end; accordingly, the grinding head 3 is fixed to the closed end of the medicine storage container 5, and the opening at the other end of the medicine storage container 5 forms a loading and unloading port. In this design, the medicine storage container 5 itself has a complete medicine storage cavity.

[0057] Furthermore, if Figure 2 As shown, the connection between the grinding head 3 and the medicine storage container 5 can be a threaded connection. Correspondingly, the connection between the medicine storage container 5 and the drive assembly 1 can be a threaded connection. The threaded connection is used to achieve the connection and coordination between different components. The connection structure is simple, stable, and easy to assemble and disassemble.

[0058] Furthermore, if Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the structural design of the driving assembly 1 includes an upper driving member 12 and a lower driving member 11 .

[0059] The upper driving member 12 is connected to the medicine grinding head 3 and is provided with a first thread structure 121 ; the lower driving member 11 is connected to the medicine grinding mortar 4 and is provided with a second thread structure 111 threadably matched with the first thread structure 121 .

[0060] By rotating the upper driving member 12 and / or the lower driving member 11, relative displacement can be generated between the upper driving member 12 and the lower driving member 11, thereby causing relative displacement between the medicine grinding head 3 and the medicine grinding mortar 4. It can be understood that the upper driving member 12 and the lower driving member 11 are threadedly connected, and by rotating the upper driving member 12 and / or the lower driving member 11, the rotational motion can be converted into linear motion to generate relative displacement, thereby driving the medicine grinding head 3 and the medicine grinding mortar 4 to move toward each other to grind the medicine.

[0061] Furthermore, if Figure 1 as well as Figure 2As shown, the upper driving member 12 can be designed as a cylinder structure, with one end closed and the other end open, for example, in the case of being provided with the medicine storage container 5.

[0062] The other end of the medicine storage container 5 is movably inserted into the upper driving member 12 and detachably connected with the upper driving member 12; the closed end of the upper driving member 12 is used to cover the access opening of the medicine storage container 5. Specifically, the medicine storage container 5 can be threadedly connected with the upper driving member 12, so as to facilitate the user to detach the medicine storage container 5 for storing or taking medicine.

[0063] The lower driving member 11 is also designed as a cylinder structure, with both ends open.

[0064] The grinding mortar 4 is fixed to one end of the lower driving member 11, and the other end of the lower driving member 11 is movably inserted into the grinding head 3. The grinding mortar 4 can also be designed to be threadedly connected with the lower driving member 11, so as to facilitate the disassembly and assembly.

[0065] Further, as shown in Figure 2 the gap cavity for movably inserting the other end of the lower driving member 11 is formed between the outer peripheral wall of the medicine storage container 5 and the inner peripheral wall of the upper driving member 12, the first threaded structure 121 is an internal threaded structure arranged on the inner peripheral wall of the upper driving member 12; correspondingly, the second threaded structure 111 is an external threaded structure arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the lower driving member 11. Of course, the first threaded structure 121 can also be an external threaded structure, and the second threaded structure 111 can be an internal threaded structure, without limitation.

[0066] Further, as shown in Figure 3 the upper driving member 12 is provided with a stop portion 112 in contact with the other end of the lower driving member 11; or, the lower driving member 11 is provided with a stop portion 112 in contact with the other end of the upper driving member 12. By means of the stop portion 112, the relative displacement between the upper driving member 12 and the lower driving member 11 can be limited, so as to avoid excessive displacement and cause damage to the grinding head 3 due to excessive extrusion of the grinding mortar 4. The stop portion 112 can be a stepped portion, or a ring-shaped flange portion, etc., without limitation.

[0067] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 in order to improve the operation comfort and reduce the air force required for operating the driving assembly 1, the driving assembly 1 of the present application is provided with an anti-slip structure.

[0068] Specifically, the outer peripheral wall of the upper driving member 12 is covered with a first anti-slip sleeve 21, and the outer peripheral wall of the lower driving member 11 and / or the grinding mortar 4 is covered with a second anti-slip sleeve 22.

[0069] In order to prevent the first anti-slip sleeve 21 from protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the upper driving member 12, an annular groove can be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the upper driving member 12 for the first anti-slip sleeve 21 to be inserted into. Similarly, an annular groove is also provided on the outer peripheral wall of the lower driving member 11 and / or the medicine grinding mortar 4 for the second anti-slip sleeve 22 to be inserted into. Specifically, the lower driving member 11 and the outer peripheral wall of the medicine grinding mortar 4 are both provided with an annular groove, and the two annular grooves are connected, and the second anti-slip sleeve 22 is directly inserted into the two annular grooves.

[0070] The first anti-slip cover 21 and the second anti-slip cover 22 can be made of silicone material, which can prevent slipping and provide a better contact feel, so that the force applied during grinding can increase friction and reduce grip force, achieving a more relaxed grinding experience.

[0071] Furthermore, the driving assembly 1 and the medicine storage container 5 are made of metal materials, realizing an all-metal design of the medicine grinder, which has better structural strength and aesthetics.

[0072] For example, an all-metal design using stainless steel would be heavy and awkward to operate. Using aluminum alloys would raise concerns about the aluminum abrasive reacting with the abrasive. Therefore, the drive assembly 1 and drug storage container 5 of this application are made of aluminum alloy, while the abrasive head 3 and mortar 4 are made of stainless steel. This bimetallic design avoids excess weight and eliminates these concerns.

[0073] Of course, the driving component 1 and the medicine storage container 5 can also be made of conventional plastic materials. Those skilled in the art can make appropriate changes in design as needed without limitation.

[0074] The medicine grinder of the present application is designed to be cylindrical as a whole, and each corresponding component is also designed to be cylindrical.

[0075] The above is a detailed introduction to the medicine grinder provided in this application. For those skilled in the art, according to the ideas of the embodiments of this application, there may be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting this application.
