[0005] Finally, after grinding, sample cleaning is troublesome and residues are easy to leave, leading to cross-contamination. Each sample replacement is time-consuming and inefficient. Incomplete cleaning may also affect the service life of precision testing equipment. Utility Model Content

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] Please see Figures 1-5 A grinding device for detecting the oil content of plant protein foods includes a main body 1, a running mechanism, an adjusting mechanism, and auxiliary components. The running mechanism includes a rotating component 2, a transmission component 3, a fixed component 4, a movable component 5, and a roller bearing 6. The rotating component 2 is mounted on the main body 1 and rotatably connected to the main body 1. The transmission component 3 is mounted on the rotating component 2 and slidably connected to the rotating component 2. The fixed component 4 is fixedly installed inside the main body 1. The movable component 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the transmission component 3. The roller bearing 6 is fixedly installed on the main body 1 and rotatably connected to the rotating component 2. The adjusting mechanism includes a threaded sleeve 7, a first spring 8, a positioning frame 9, and a feed box 10. The threaded sleeve 7 is mounted on the rotating component 2 and threadedly engages with both the rotating component 2 and the transmission component 3. The first spring 8 is mounted on the threaded sleeve 7, and its other end is fixedly connected to the positioning frame 9. The positioning frame 9 is mounted on the threaded sleeve 7 and slidably connected to the threaded sleeve 7. The feed box 10 is fixedly mounted on the main body 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the operating mechanism includes a rotating component 2, a transmission component 3, a fixed component 4, a movable component 5, and a roller bearing 6. In use, the hand lever 15 on the rotating component 2 can be rotated, allowing the rotating component 2 to rotate on the main body 1. Under the action of the roller bearing 6, the rotating component 2 can rotate more smoothly. The rotation of the rotating component 2 drives the transmission component 3 to rotate inside the main body 1. At this time, materials can be put into the feed box 10. Under the action of the threaded plate 24 of the transmission component 3, the materials can be conveyed inside the main body 1. After entering the main body 1, the materials are ground under the action of the fixed component 4 and the movable component 5, so that the materials can be ground into powder and finally fall into the receiving box 13.

[0032] In this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism includes a threaded sleeve 7, a first spring 8, a positioning frame 9, and a feed box 10. During use, the grinding degree of the material needs to be changed according to the different materials. At this time, the threaded sleeve 7 installed on the rotating part 2 can be rotated. When the threaded sleeve 7 is rotated, the positioning frame 9 can be pulled on the threaded sleeve 7, so that the positioning rod 19 on the positioning frame 9 can be rotated to the positioning hole 18 on the rotating part 2, and at the same time, the first spring 8 is compressed. As the threaded sleeve 7 rotates, the screw 17 and the threaded sleeve 7 are threadedly engaged, causing the position of the output part inside the main body 1 to change. The lifting and lowering of the output part causes the contact distance between the fixed part 4 and the moving part 5 to change, thereby changing the grinding degree of the material.

[0033] In this embodiment, the auxiliary components include a second spring 11, a push plate 12, a receiving box 13, and a support rod 14. In use, the receiving box 13 can be first installed at the bottom of the main body 1. The protrusion 23 on the receiving box 13 directly enters through the inlet hole 21 at the bottom of the main body 1, thereby contacting the push plate 12 and transmitting pressure to it. This allows the push plate 12 to compress the second spring 11, and under the compression of the second spring 11, the receiving box 13 can rotate. When the receiving box 13 rotates forty-five degrees... Then, the receiving box 13 is released, so that under the action of the push plate 12, the protrusion 23 of the receiving box 13 can enter the fixing hole 22, and under the action of the second spring 11, the receiving box 13 can be fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body 1. After the receiving box 13 is installed, the support rod 14 can be installed in the mounting hole 25 at the bottom of the main body 1, and the magnet block 26 on the support rod 14 is magnetically connected to the main body 1, so that the main body 1 is more stably supported under the action of the support rod 14.

[0034] Example 2:

[0035] In summary, during use, the hand lever 15 on the rotating part 2 can be rotated first, allowing the rotating part 2 to rotate on the main body 1. Under the action of the roller bearing 6, the rotating part 2 can rotate more smoothly. The rotation of the rotating part 2 drives the transmission part 3 to rotate inside the main body 1. At this time, material can be put into the feed box 10. Under the action of the threaded plate 24 of the transmission part 3, the material can be conveyed inside the main body 1. After the material enters the main body 1, it is ground under the action of the fixed part 4 and the movable part 5, so that the material can be ground into powder and finally fall into the receiving box 13. At this time, the degree of grinding of the material needs to be changed according to the different materials. At this time, the threaded sleeve 7 installed on the rotating part 2 can be rotated. When rotating the threaded sleeve 7, the positioning frame 9 can be pulled on the threaded sleeve 7, so that the positioning rod 19 on the positioning frame 9 can disengage from the positioning hole 18 on the rotating part 2, and at the same time, the first spring 8 is compressed. Under the rotation of the threaded sleeve 7, the screw 17 and the threaded sleeve 7 are threadedly engaged, so that the position of the output part inside the main body 1 is adjusted. The change in the output component's lifting and lowering alters the contact distance between the fixed component 4 and the movable component 5, thereby changing the grinding fineness of the material. The subsequent material collection involves first installing the receiving box 13 at the bottom of the main body 1. The protrusion 23 on the receiving box 13 directly enters through the inlet hole 21 at the bottom of the main body 1, thus contacting the push plate 12 and transmitting pressure to it. This causes the push plate 12 to compress the second spring 11, which in turn rotates the receiving box 13. 3. After rotating forty-five degrees, release the receiving box 13 so that the protrusion 23 can enter the fixing hole 22 under the action of the push plate 12. Under the action of the second spring 11, the receiving box 13 can be fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body 1. After the receiving box 13 is installed, the support rod 14 can be installed in the mounting hole 25 at the bottom of the main body 1. The magnet 26 on the support rod 14 is magnetically connected to the main body 1, so that the main body 1 is more stably supported under the action of the support rod 14.

[0036] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
