Abstract

The utility model belongs to the field of grinding devices, and particularly relates to grinding equipment with a rotary limiting function. The grinding equipment mainly comprises a grinding main body, a scale adjusting ring, a rotary limiting ring and the like. In the using process, when a user rotates the scale adjusting ring, the outer cutter mechanism can be driven to move in the axial direction, and the inner cutter mechanism does not move in the axial direction, so that the distance between the inner cutter mechanism and the outer cutter mechanism can be adjusted through the rotation degree, and the grinding granularity is controlled. At the moment, the rotary limiting ring which is synchronously arranged with the scale adjusting ring can only rotate within a circumferential range of less than 360 degrees, so that a dead lock state caused by continuously rotating the scale adjusting ring is avoided, and the convenience of use and operation is ensured; meanwhile, due to the existence of the rotary limiting ring, the original precision matching degree between all the components is weakened to a certain degree, and the adaptive installation cost between all the components is also reduced.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of grinding devices, specifically relating to a grinding device with rotational limiting. Background Technology

[0002] Grinding devices are widely used in daily life. Taking a coffee bean grinder as an example, it is a device that grinds coffee beans into coffee powder. It mainly uses a motor to drive (or a hand crank to drive) mechanical blades to rotate, cutting and grinding the coffee beans into powder for brewing coffee.

[0003] Existing coffee bean grinders have the following drawbacks:

[0004] 1. Whether rotating the scale adjustment ring forward or backward, it is impossible to know the progress of rotation, which often leads to it being locked directly, making it unsuitable for later use;

[0005] 2. The various components of a coffee bean grinder are designed for extremely precise fit, which results in very high installation costs during the adaptation and installation process. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a rotary limiting grinding device, which includes:

[0007] Grinding body; the grinding body includes an inner blade mechanism, an outer blade mechanism, and a limiting stop;

[0008] A scale adjustment ring; the scale adjustment ring is sleeved on the outside of the grinding body. By rotating the scale adjustment ring circumferentially, the relative position between the inner blade mechanism and the outer blade mechanism is adjusted axially, thereby adjusting the grinding particle size.

[0009] A rotating limiting ring; the rotating limiting ring is sleeved on the inner side of the scale adjusting ring, and an outwardly convex mechanism and an inwardly convex mechanism are respectively radially arranged on the outer and inner sides of the rotating limiting ring; wherein:

[0010] The protruding mechanism abuts against the scale adjustment ring, so that the rotation limiting ring rotates synchronously with the scale adjustment ring;

[0011] At the start of rotation, the inner convex mechanism begins to rotate circumferentially from one side of the limiting block until it comes into contact with the other side of the limiting block, at which point the rotation ends.

[0012] As an optional implementation, a scale groove is provided on the inner side of the scale adjustment ring; wherein:

[0013] The graduated grooves are evenly distributed circumferentially and abut against the convex mechanism.

[0014] As an optional implementation, the inner circumferential side of the scale adjustment ring is provided with an elastic protrusion; wherein:

[0015] The elastic protrusion is fixedly installed; when the scale adjustment ring rotates circumferentially, the elastic protrusion and the scale groove squeeze against each other to produce a sound, providing audible feedback to the user.

[0016] As an optional implementation, the grinding body further includes an outer blade lifting and limiting mechanism, an outer blade fixing ring, and an outer blade anti-rotation post; wherein:

[0017] The inner side of the scale adjustment ring is provided with a first thread, and the outer side of the external blade lifting limit mechanism is provided with a second thread. The first thread and the second thread are adapted to be connected.

[0018] The inner side of the outer blade lifting and limiting mechanism is provided with a third thread, and the outer side of the outer blade fixing ring is provided with a fourth thread. The third thread and the fourth thread are adapted to be connected.

[0019] The outer blade anti-rotation post is located inside the outer blade fixing ring and outside the outer blade mechanism to prevent the outer blade mechanism from rotating.

[0020] As an optional implementation, the grinding body also includes an axial guide groove; wherein:

[0021] The axial guide groove is adapted to the outer blade lifting and limiting mechanism so that during the rotation of the scale adjustment ring, the outer blade lifting and limiting mechanism only moves up and down in the axial direction.

[0022] As an optional implementation, the grinding body further includes a rotating shaft; wherein:

[0023] The inner blade mechanism is sleeved at the bottom of the rotating shaft. When the rotating shaft rotates under the drive of an external force, the inner blade mechanism rotates synchronously and performs crushing and cutting.

[0024] As an optional implementation, the grinding body further includes an internal blade positioning mechanism; wherein:

[0025] The inner blade positioning mechanism is located below the inner blade mechanism.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0027] Taking a coffee bean grinder as an example, before starting to grind, it is often necessary to adjust the position between the inner and outer blade mechanisms by rotating the scale adjustment ring. Specifically:

[0028] When the user rotates the scale adjustment ring, the outer blade mechanism moves axially, while the inner blade mechanism remains stationary. This allows adjustment of the distance between the inner and outer blade mechanisms, and control of the grinding grit, by varying the degree of rotation. Simultaneously, the rotation limit ring, which is synchronously set with the scale adjustment ring, can only rotate within a circumferential range of less than 360°. This prevents continuous rotation of the scale adjustment ring from causing a lock-up, ensuring ease of operation. Furthermore, the presence of the rotation limit ring reduces the precision required between components, lowering the installation costs associated with fitting different parts together.

The inner side of the outer blade fixing ring 15 has a groove 152, which engages and fixes with the outer blade anti-rotation post 16 to prevent the outer blade mechanism 12 from rotating. More specifically, by... Figure 7 It can be seen that the outer blade anti-rotation post 16 is located in the side-level area outside the outer blade mechanism 12 (either one side or both sides, in this embodiment both sides), and is engaged and fixed with the groove 152 on the inner side of the outer blade fixing ring 15.
