Patent attributes
A electronic grinder includes a base and a cup, the cup defining a pulverization chamber. A drive shaft connected to an electric motor terminates inside the pulverization chamber at a blade group. The blade group is magnetically removable from the end of the drive shaft for easy cleaning and replacement. The end of the cup opposite from the base in includes a fixed ring and a moveable cap that rotates or swivels about a pin connecting the two components for easy access to the contents of the pulverization chamber. The electric motor is controlled by a microcontroller operable by a power button and a control button. An inductive switch configured as a triggering member is disposed between the base and cup to detect whether the two components are connected in order to prevent inadvertent use of the grinder.
