[0002] Sichuan pepper belongs to the Rutaceae family and can be used as a traditional Chinese medicine. It has the effects of warming the middle energizer, dispelling cold, relieving pain, and killing parasites. It is also a popular condiment. Sichuan pepper is usually used to season in the cooking process. However, if whole Sichuan pepper is used directly for seasoning, the aroma and numbing sensation of Sichuan pepper will not be released well. Therefore, when Sichuan pepper is used as a condiment, Sichuan pepper powder is still an indispensable product. Whole Sichuan pepper is ground into Sichuan pepper powder by a grinding device.

[0003] However, existing pepper grinding devices cannot adjust the grinding fineness of peppers because the grinding media is fixed on the device, which cannot meet people's needs. Furthermore, existing pepper grinding devices do not have a sieving mechanism, which results in the pepper powder containing sand and dust, affecting the quality of the pepper powder and making it difficult to promote its use.

[0004] To address this problem, this application provides a pepper grinding device. Utility Model Content

[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:

[0023] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a pepper grinding device, including a support component 1, an adjustment component 2, and a transmission component 3. The adjustment component 2 is disposed inside the support component 1, and the transmission component 3 is disposed inside the support component 1.

[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the support assembly 1 includes a grinding cylinder 10 and a movable plate 12. The movable plate 12 is movably installed at one end of the grinding cylinder 10, and a support leg 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the grinding cylinder 10. By opening the movable plate 12, the sand and dust after screening inside the grinding cylinder 10 can be cleaned.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the grinding cylinder 10 is provided with a feed inlet 13 at one end near the movable plate 12. The peppercorns to be ground are introduced into the interior of the grinding cylinder 10 through the feed inlet 13. The other end of the grinding cylinder 10 is provided with a discharge outlet 14, through which the ground peppercorn powder is discharged.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly 2 includes a cylinder 20 and a top block 21. The top block 21 is fixedly installed at one end of the cylinder 20, and the cylinder 20 is fixedly installed at both ends of the grinding cylinder 10. The top block 21 is movably installed inside the grinding cylinder 10. A movable block 22 is movably connected to the bottom of the top block 21. The movable block 22 is movably installed inside the grinding cylinder 10. The cylinder 20 drives the top block 21 to move, causing the top block 21 to press down on the movable block 22. Then, the movable block 22 drives the bearing 31 and the transmission shaft 30 to move down, thereby adjusting the fineness of the pepper powder.

[0027] like Figure 3As shown, a sieve plate 24 is movably installed inside the grinding cylinder 10. A first motor 25 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sieve plate 24. When peppercorns enter the grinding cylinder 10, they will first fall onto the sieve plate 24. The vibration generated by the first motor 25 during operation causes the sieve plate 24 to vibrate, thus separating the peppercorn particles from the sand and dust.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the transmission assembly 3 includes a connecting bracket 36 and a grinding column 37. The grinding column 37 is rotatably mounted on the outside of the connecting bracket 36. The grinding column 37 rolls against the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 10 to squeeze and grind the peppercorns to be ground, thus grinding the peppercorn particles into peppercorn powder.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, a drive wheel 34 is fixedly installed at one end of the second motor 32, and a second motor 32 is fixedly installed on one side of the grinding cylinder 10. A belt 33 is movably connected to the outside of the drive wheel 34, and a driven wheel 35 is movably connected to the other end of the belt 33. A transmission shaft 30 is fixedly installed inside the driven wheel 35. The second motor 32 drives the drive wheel 34 to rotate, and then the drive wheel 34 drives the driven wheel 35 to rotate through the belt 33, and then the driven wheel 35 drives the transmission shaft 30 inside it to rotate.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, a bearing 31 is fixedly installed on the outside of the drive shaft 30, and a movable block 22 is movably connected to both sides of the bearing 31. A connecting bracket 36 is fixedly installed on the outside of the drive shaft 30. A spring 23 is movably installed inside the grinding cylinder 10. The bottom end of the spring 23 is movably connected to the bottom of the movable block 22. Under the drive of the cylinder 20, the top block 21 presses down on the movable block 22, and then the movable block 22 drives the bearing 31 and the drive shaft 30 to move down, reducing the distance between the grinding column 37 and the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 10, making the pepper powder finer. When the fineness requirement of the pepper powder is lower, the cylinder 20 drives the top block 21 to retract. Under the action of the spring 23, the movable block 22 drives the bearing 31 and the drive shaft 30 to move up, increasing the distance between the grinding column 37 and the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 10, making the ground pepper powder particles larger.

[0031] The working principle of this pepper grinding device will be explained in detail below.

[0032] like Figure 1-4As shown, when using this peppercorn grinding device, the peppercorns to be ground are introduced into the grinding cylinder 10 through the feed inlet 13. Upon entering the grinding cylinder 10, the peppercorns first fall onto the sieve plate 24. The vibration generated by the first motor 25 causes the sieve plate 24 to vibrate, separating the peppercorn particles from the sand and dust. Then, the movable plate 12 is opened to clean the sand and dust from the grinding cylinder 10. The combined action of the sieve plate 24 and the first motor 25 prevents the sand and dust from affecting the quality of the peppercorn powder. When the peppercorns fall onto the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 10, the second motor 32 drives the drive wheel 34 to rotate. The drive wheel 34 then drives the driven wheel 35 to rotate via the belt 33. The driven wheel 35 then drives the internal transmission shaft 30 to rotate, causing the transmission shaft 30 to drive the external connecting support. The frame 36 and the grinding column 37 rotate. The grinding column 37 rolls and is pressed against the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 10 to grind the peppercorns into peppercorn powder. The ground peppercorn powder is discharged through the discharge port 14. When different fineness requirements are required for the peppercorn powder, the cylinder 20 is driven to push the top block 21 to move, causing the top block 21 to press down on the movable block 22. The movable block 22 then drives the bearing 31 and the drive shaft 30 to move down, reducing the distance between the grinding column 37 and the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 10, making the peppercorn powder finer. When the fineness requirement for the peppercorn powder is lower, the cylinder 20 drives the top block 21 to retract. Under the action of the spring 23, the movable block 22 drives the bearing 31 and the drive shaft 30 to move up, increasing the distance between the grinding column 37 and the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 10, making the ground peppercorn powder particles larger.

[0033] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
