[0001] REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] The present application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 202411325610.9, filed on September 23, 2024, and entitled "Coffee machine bean box lower bean grinding mechanism", the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The present application relates to a coffee machine and its grinding device, and is a coffee machine bean box lower bean grinding mechanism. BACKGROUND

[0004] A coffee machine is an electrical device for making coffee, generally divided into semi-automatic and fully automatic types. The semi-automatic coffee machine is a traditional Italian coffee machine, which grinds, presses, loads, brews, and manually removes residues according to manual operation. The fully automatic coffee machine realizes automatic control of the whole process of brewing coffee, such as preheating, cleaning, grinding, pressing, brewing, and discharging, according to scientific data and procedures to brew coffee, and is equipped with a perfect protection system, making it convenient to use and obtaining coffee by simply pressing a button. The grinding mechanism of the coffee machine is a grinding tool that cuts and grinds coffee beans into coffee powder when the mechanical cutter is rotated at high speed by the motor. However, the existing grinding mechanism of the coffee machine usually needs to put a certain amount of coffee beans into the bean box for grinding by the grinder. In most cases, it is difficult to control the amount of coffee beans, and users who are not professionals cannot grind the required amount of coffee powder. Moreover, after taking out the bean box, there are residual coffee beans above the grinding disc, which affects the mixing of coffee beans of different flavors in the next grinding process and affects the quality of coffee taste. Therefore, some existing coffee machine grinding mechanisms use automatic feeding, grinding, and powder discharging structures, such as the Chinese patent document No. 202320048768.0, granted on June 23, 2023, and entitled "Grinding bean drip coffee machine grinding device"; and the Chinese patent document No. 202322027446.0, granted on April 2, 2024, and entitled "Grinding bean device with static electricity elimination function and coffee machine".
