Abstract: A pepper can includes a grinding mechanism, a rotary driving unit, and a controlling unit to make the rotary driving unit switch between its on and off states; the controlling unit includes two magnetic electricity-conducting pieces, which are electrically connected to the driving unit, and each have an elastic portion; the controlling unit includes a sealing sleeve positioned around the elastic portions, and a magnetic component capable of sliding close to the sealing sleeve; when the pepper can is in an in-use state, the magnetic component will make the elastic portions get into contact with each other owing to magnetic attraction, thus turning on the driving unit for the driving unit to drive the grinding unit to grind pepper; the elastic portions are airtightly wrapped in the sealing sleeve, and therefore can't oxidize or have dust accumulating thereon, preventing the risk of poor electrical contact existing between the elastic portions.

Abstract: A pepper grinding tool with a sideways projecting lever operated with a single hand includes a housing consisting of both an upper part and a lower part, a lever, a grinding assembly and an one-way member. The housing has a first portion and a second elongated portion projecting sideways from the first portion and having a lateral opening. The lever has teeth on a front end, and is pivoted to the elongated portion with the teeth facing the first portion and with a rear portion being biased outwardly of the lateral opening by a spring. The one-way member is turnably received in the first portion of the housing, and has a toothed round part abutting the teeth of the lever. The main body is connected to a shaft, of which the lower end is connected to an inner grinding part of the grinding assembly, in such a way that the shaft can turn together with the round part only when the lever rear portion is pivoted outwardly of the opening to force the toothed round part to turn clockwise, i.e.

Abstract: A bifunction condiment grinding tool has a first and a second turnable housings with an interposed member provided in between; the housings each defines a condiment receiving compartment. A shaft is passed through the center of the housings and the interposed member. Two grinding assemblies are connected to a respective one of the housings, and each has an inner grinding element and an outer grinding element; the outer grinding elements are secured to the housings, and the inner grinding elements are each connected to one end of the shaft. The shaft is further connected to two one-way members disposed in a respective one of the housings.

Abstract: A one-way pepper grinding tool includes an one-way member, and a grinding assembly having an inner and an outer grinding part. The one-way member has a main body turnably received in a housing. The main body has several curved slots around a central round hole. The curved slots each has an engaging end portion in open communication with the central round hole for permitting an engaging block movably received in the slot to separably engage a ring fitted in the central round hole; the engaging blocks being biased to the engaging end portions by springs to force the ring to turn together with the main body when the main body turns in a first direction, making the inner grinding part associated with the ring turn to grind pepper. When the main body turns in an opposite direction, the engaging blocks are moved away from the ring, not able to make the ring turn, i.e. the inner grinding part will not turn relative to the outer grinding part.

Abstract: A one-way pepper grinding tool has an inner grinding part turnably received in a fixed outer grinding part. The inner grinding part is connected to a lower end of a shaft. The shaft is passed through a one-way member including a round turnable main body and a ratchet, and secured to a turning part of the one-way member. The main body is connected to a lever and a torsional spring such that same can be turned clockwise and counterclockwise by depressing and releasing the lever repeatedly. The ratchet will engage the turning part only when the main body is turned clockwise so the inner grinding part can turn only clockwise in the pepper grinding movement.

Abstract: A pepper grinding tool comprises a main body, a socket, a grinding member and a transmission shaft. The socket is received in the main body, and has a rim fitted onto an annular recess in the main body. The grinding member has an outer grinding part and an inner grinding part received in the outer part can be turned for grinding pepper between the inner and the outer grinding parts. The outer grinding part also has a rim; the rim is located under the rim of the socket. Screws are screwed through the rims and into the main body to secure the outer grinding part to the main body. The shaft is connected to the inner grinding part from a lower end, and passed through an upper cover of the pepper grinding tool. Thus, pepper particulate can be dispensed from a bottom of the grinding member very easily without any residue because no any fixing element is arranged under the grinding member to block the exit of the pepper grinding tool.

Abstract: An adjustment member of a pepper grinding tool has a cap, an elastic member, an engaging hook and a support rod. The grinding tool has a main body, a grinding assembly, a turnable member and the adjustment member. The grinding assembly is received in the main body, and includes an inner and an outer grinding wheels. The inner wheel can be turned relative to the outer wheel to grind pepper. The adjustment member is fitted to a hole of the turnable member. The support rod is connected to the inner grinding wheel by a connecting rod. The elastic member is located between the support rod and the cap such that the cap is biased upwards by the elastic member. The engaging hook is connected to the cap at one end, and movably received in a trench of the support rod at other end.

Abstract: A grinding assembly of a pepper grinder has an inner and an outer grinding members. The inner grinding member is turnably received in the outer member. The inner member has grinding teeth on an outer side thereof, opposing grinding teeth of an inner side of the outer member. The inner member grinding teeth are not in touch with the outer member grinding teeth. The inner member further has a lower end annular part touching lower ends of the outer member grinding teeth. Because the grinding teeth do not touch each other, the inner grinding member can be turned more smoothly.

Abstract: An inner grinding member of a pepper grinder comprises a main body and a cushion member. The inner grinding member is received in, and can turn relative to an outer grinding member for grinding pepper into small particulate therebetween. The inner grinding member can be made of porcelain, and has a holding room on a bottom side. The cushion member is made of plastic, and comprises a polygonal lower part, and an upper part. The holding room is shaped such that the cushion member can be received therein with no space in between. A bolt is passed through the main body and the cushion member, and connects a nut arranged under the cushion member. The bolt is further connected to a transmission member. The cushion member can prevent the inner porcelain grinding member from being broken by the nut when the bolt is screwed into the nut too hard.
