Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a mill used as a crusher or a pepper container, and more particularly to a lever type that can be operated with one hand.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, as a sesame scraper for slicing and seasoning seasonings such as pepper and sesame, a cylindrical container is divided into two parts and the two are relatively rotated to slide the seasonings between rotary blades installed in each container. The grated one is known. Further, in recent years, a lever type has been proposed so that the grate operation can be performed with one hand.

An example of such a lever type crusher is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 56-35169.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, this is a rod-shaped blade 52 in which the base end of a lever 51 is pivotally supported on the upper side surface of the container body 50, and a large number of valley-shaped blades are formed on the tip side of the lever 51. The rod-shaped blade 52 is arranged in the container body 50 so as to be retractable. A fixed blade 53 is provided inside the container body 50 so as to face the rod-shaped blade 52. When the lever 51 is grasped on the container body side, the rod-shaped blade 52 slides and forms a sesame between the fixed blade 53. Is crushed.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional device, since the force applied to the lever is only directly applied to the rod-shaped blade, the lever action cannot be expected and the operation is heavy.

Further, since the rod-shaped blade 52 and the fixed blade 53 face each other in parallel, the resistance when crushing is large, and since the sesame is slid to fine particles at once by each of the blades described above, the blade is also clogged. There is a drawback that the operation is not smooth, such as easy occurrence.

The present invention has been made in view of the above matters, and an object thereof is to provide a mill capable of smoothly sliding sesame or the like with one hand.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

The present invention has the following configuration in order to solve the above technical problems.

That is, the opening 2 is provided on the bottom side of the container body 1.

The grip lever 3 is pivotally attached to the bottom side of the container body 1 so as to be swingable at its lower end side.

An elastic spring 4 is inserted between the grip lever 3 and the container body 1 to urge the upper end of the grip lever 3 in a direction projecting from the side surface of the container body 1.

A grinding blade 6 is provided on the inner side surface 5 at the lower end of the grip lever 3, and a pedestal 7 is provided at a portion of the container body 1 facing the grinding blade 6.

A predetermined gap is provided between the grinding blade 6 and the pedestal 7, and a step portion 8 is provided at a portion of the pedestal 7 close to the grinding blade 6.

Then, by tilting the grip lever 3 toward the container main body 1 side, the crushed material 9 contained in the container main body 1 is slid between the grinding blade 6 and the slide table 7 and discharged. And

In addition, this mill is not limited to sesame, various peppers, crystalline salts, etc.
As a matter of course, it can be used for all kinds of seasonings and the like, which are preferably ground each time they are used.

The grinding blade 6 and the pedestal 7 can be integrally molded with a synthetic resin forming the container body 1 and the grip lever 3, but a metal such as brass, which is not easily corroded, or a ceramic, etc., is sintered. By using wood, sesame seeds can be rubbed stably over a long period of time.

[Action]

When the grip lever 3 located on the side surface of the container body 1 is gripped, the grip lever 3 swings against the elastic spring 4 about the shaft. Then, the grinding blade 6 provided on the inner side surface 5 at the lower end of the grip lever 3 is rotated, and the crushed object 9 is crushed between the grinding blade 6 and the pedestal 7 provided so as to face the grinding blade 6. At this time, the pedestal 7
The non-crushed material 9 is firmly sandwiched by the stepped portion 8 formed in the region close to the grinding blade 6 to be crushed and crushed securely. In particular, it is expected that rough grinding will be performed in the front stage of the step portion 8 and fine grinding will be performed in the rear stage, so that smooth and reliable sesame grinding can be performed.

Moreover, if the distance from the axis point of the grip lever 3 to the scraping blade 6 and the distance from the axis point of the grip lever 3 to the upper end of the grip lever 3 and the ratio thereof are set to about 1: 3, a triple boosting effect is obtained. Can be expected and can be operated lightly.
