Solution Overview
Problem
Existing grinders have complex structures and large volumes, making them inconvenient to carry and use, with complex designs that complicate operation and maintenance.
Innovation Solution
A compact grinder design with a transversely arranged power mechanism, feeding assembly, and power supply, featuring a detachable feeding assembly for easy cleaning and carrying, and an ergonomic switch button for easy access, along with a grinding mechanism comprising male and female grinding heads with adjustable grinding thickness and a sealing mechanism to prevent dust entry.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a traditional grinder structure is used, then the grinding function is achieved, but the structure becomes complex and volume increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the power mechanism, power supply mechanism, and feeding assembly into a single integrated housing structure. These three components are transversely arranged within the same housing space, merging what could have been separate units into one compact device, thereby reducing overall volume and structural complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from a traditional longitudinal arrangement of components to a transverse arrangement within the housing. This dimensional reorganization allows for more efficient space utilization, reducing the overall footprint and volume of the grinder while maintaining all necessary functions.
2Ease of operation
If the feeding assembly is fixed, then the structure is stable, but cleaning and carrying become inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The feeding assembly is designed as a detachable, separable component from the main housing. This segmentation allows the feeding assembly to be easily removed for cleaning or replacement, improving ease of operation and maintenance while the remaining housing structure maintains its stability.
3Ease of operation
If the switch button is placed on the side, then the structure is simple, but accessibility becomes poor
Solution Approach 1:
The switch button is positioned on the top surface of the housing at a location optimized for user accessibility. This local modification to the housing structure places the control element where it is most easily reached and operated, improving ease of operation with minimal impact on overall structural complexity.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The compact design allows for convenient carrying and operation, simplifies maintenance, and enhances grinding efficiency with a simple structure and effective material handling, while maintaining precision and preventing dust entry.
Implementation Method 1
The power mechanism comprises a motor and a driving shaft, wherein one end of the driving shaft is connected to an output shaft of the motor
Implementation Method 2
a compression spring is provided inside the shifting mechanism, and the position of the male grinding head is adjusted by rotating the shifting mechanism to adjust the compression degree of the compression spring
Implementation Method 3
The detachable connection or the absorptive connection has the advantages of a simple structure, reliable connection, and convenient assembly and disassembly
