Abstract
A novel cylindrical coffee grinder burr type significantly increases the total cutting area possible within a given enclosure size. The design enables more robust support inside and outside the burrs, and creates opportunities to reduce mechanical complexity and product footprint by housing the motor within the circumference of the inner burr, and integrating hopper and anti-retention mechanisms into the outer burr itself.
Claims5
A coffee grinder burr assembly comprising:
- A near-cylindrical inner burr
- A near-cylindrical outer burr
Integration of additional features directly within the outer burr including:
- Hopper design which is linked to the outer burr directly, and which may change in effective volume during use according to its adjustment.
- Anti-retention knockers that are affixed to the outer burr.
A method of grinding coffee comprising:
- Providing a cylindrical burr assembly
- Rotating said burrs relative to each other
- Adjusting burr separation via a cam mechanism
