[0018] Figure 4 This is an enlarged view of embodiment A of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] See Figures 1-4This coffee grinder features a vibration-based residual powder removal structure, including a grinding mechanism 1. The discharge end of the grinding mechanism 1 is equipped with a powder conveying channel 2. A striking element 3 is located on the outer side of the powder conveying channel 2. The side of the striking element 3 facing the powder conveying channel 2 has a striking part 31 for vibrating the powder conveying channel 2 through collision. The side of the striking element 3 facing away from the powder conveying channel 2 has a pressing part 32 for impacting the striking element 3 towards the powder conveying channel 2 upon contact with a hand. The striking element 3 can better separate the powder adhering to the inner side of the powder conveying channel 2 from the powder conveying channel 2 by causing the powder to vibrate, thereby relatively increasing the powder output of the powder conveying channel 2 and relatively reducing the chance of bacterial growth in the powder conveying channel 2. At the same time, the striking element 3 does not require complex electronic control structure for control, and its structure is relatively simple, which will not significantly increase the material cost of the equipment.

[0021] This residual powder removal structure can also be applied to other grinding mill equipment, making it suitable for use in grinding mills that grind beans, medicinal materials, etc. into powder.

[0022] Furthermore, an installation frame 4 is provided on the outer side of the powder conveying channel 2. The powder conveying channel 2 is connected and fixed to the installation frame 4. The installation frame 4 is provided with a limiting mechanism corresponding to the striking part 3. The striking part 3 moves back and forth in the direction of approaching or moving away from the powder conveying channel 2 through the limiting mechanism and is limited and cooperated with the installation frame 4. The installation frame 4 can install and position the powder conveying channel 2, and can also achieve connection and cooperation with the striking part 3 through the limiting mechanism.

[0023] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes a guide post 41 and a limiting hole 33 respectively disposed on the mounting frame 4 and the striking member 3. The guide post 41 is disposed along the direction of the striking member 3 approaching or away from the powder conveying channel 2. The guide post 41 passes through the striking member 3 through the limiting hole 33. The guide post 41 and the limiting hole 33 slide against each other. The cooperation between the guide post 41 and the limiting hole 33 can improve the stability of the striking member 3 during its movement and reduce the chance of the striking member 3 accidentally falling off or accidentally shifting.

[0024] Furthermore, the guide post 41 is provided with an anti-detachment part 411 on the side facing away from the powder conveying channel 2. The limiting hole 33 abuts against the anti-detachment part 411, which can stop the striking part 3 from moving away from the powder conveying channel 2, so that the striking part 3 will not accidentally fall off the mounting bracket 4 when resetting.

[0025] Furthermore, the striking element 3 is connected to an elastic reset element 5, which can push the striking element 3 to move away from the powder conveying channel 2, so that the user can quickly make the powder conveying channel 2 vibrate continuously by pressing the striking element 3, and the powder in the powder conveying channel 2 can be more easily released from the powder conveying channel 2.

[0026] Furthermore, the elastic reset member 5 is a long strip of metal that can be elastically reset. The two ends of the elastic reset member 5 are connected and fixed to the mounting bracket 4. The striking member 3 is provided with a connecting groove 34 corresponding to the elastic reset member 5. The connecting groove 34 is open on one side facing the powder conveying channel 2. The elastic reset member 5 enters from the opening of the connecting groove 34 and can push the connecting groove 34 to make the striking member 3 move away from the powder conveying channel 2. Compared with the method of setting a spring between the striking member 3 and the powder conveying channel 2, the metal strip does not need to contact the powder conveying channel 2. Even if the surface of the powder conveying channel 2 is non-planar, the metal strip can still effectively reset the striking member 3.

[0027] Furthermore, the striking element 3 has a plurality of connecting grooves 34 distributed along the length of the vertical metal strip, which further improves the stability of the striking element 3's movement when the metal strip resets it.

[0028] Furthermore, the powder conveying channel 2 has a discharge port 21. The striking element 3 is located on the upper side of the powder conveying channel 2 adjacent to the discharge port 21. After the striking element 3 acts on the powder conveying channel 2, it can make the powder easier to be discharged from the discharge port 21 and reduce the chance of the powder adhering to the powder again in the powder conveying channel 2.

[0029] This utility model also discloses a coffee grinder, including a main body 6 and the above-mentioned coffee grinder vibration powder removal structure. The grinding mechanism 1 is located on the upper side of the main body 6, and the air outlet of the powder conveying channel 2 extends to the front side of the main body 6.
