A grinding system for grinding raw material to obtain ground material comprises a housing, a grinding assembly, and a first cap. The housing defines a grinding chamber, and the grinding assembly comprising a plurality of burrs. The grinding assembly is supported relative to the housing such that each of the plurality of burrs is arranged within the grinding chamber. The first cap is detachably attachable to the grinding assembly such that, with the first cap attached to the grinding assembly, rotation of the first cap relative to the housing causes rotation of at least one of the plurality of burrs relative to at least one other of the plurality of burrs and, with the first cap detached from the grinding assembly, the raw material may be arranged within the grinding chamber.

CONTAINER
20220338535 · 2022-10-27 ·

A container when assembled includes a body, a cover, a lower grinding component, and an upper grinding component. The body includes a primary storage area compartment, the lower grinding component includes a grinding area compartment, and the upper grinding component includes a secondary storage area compartment. The upper grinding component partially nests within the lower grinding component. The lower grinding component defines a recess comprising the grinding area compartment. The upper grinding component is inserted into and partially received within the recess of the lower grinding component to form a grinder. The lower grinding component partially nests within the body of the container and the cover fits over the upper grinding component and partially over the lower grinding component when the cover is secured to the body of the grinder, whereby the grinder is completely enclosed within the body and cover of the container.
