An herb grinder comprises a first enclosure defining a first chamber for holding unground herbs, first and second grinding plates, and a second enclosure defining a second chamber that receives ground herbs. The first grinding plate defines an opening that allows unground herbs to pass from the first chamber. The grinding plates each have a plurality of grinding teeth. The second grinding plate is parallel to and spaced apart from the first grinding plate to define a grinding space therebetween. The second grinding plate defines a plurality of holes. The grinding teeth of each grinding plate are staggered such that, when the first and/or second grinding plates selectively rotate, there is no contact between the grinding teeth. The relative movement of the grinding teeth grinds herbs in the grinding space. The ground herbs pass through the plurality of holes in the second grinding plate into the second chamber.

A system for abating noise emanating from a kitchen electric appliance includes a base of a predetermined size, comprising a first instance of a noise reflecting material, so that said base is disposed underneath, supporting, and contiguous to said kitchen electric appliance, and a sleeve of a predetermined size, including a second instance of a noise reflecting material, one or more layers of at least one noise absorbing material, one closed end, and one open end, so that said one open end slides over said kitchen electric appliance and is contiguous to said base. Said noise is effectively abated by reverberating between said first instance of said noise reflecting material and said second instance of said noise reflecting material and is attenuated by said one or more layers of said at least one noise absorbing material.

Grinder-doser device for coffee beans includes a body which internally houses an electric motor, having a shaft, which is integral in rotation with the lower grinder holder to which the lower grinder is joined, said lower grinder holder, and said lower grinder being housed inside a head which has a horizontal annular seat in the lateral edge, which houses an upper grinder. The upper grinder being formed by a toothed annular portion housed inside a hollow annular portion, which in turn is surrounded by an annular portion, which rests on the annular seat. The flat upper surface of the upper grinder is rectified and collimated with the plane passing through the ends of the teeth of the toothed portion.

A bean grinding apparatus including a body; grinding burrs mounted in the body, the burrs including a non-driven burr and a rotationally driven burr, the rotationally driven burr having a rotational axis about which it rotates; a drive motor operatively coupled to the rotationally driven burr; a grounds flow path defined within the body; and an exit spout, the exit spout having an inlet in communication with the grounds flow path and an outlet, wherein the exit spout defines a longitudinal axis and the longitudinal axis of the exit spout is angled with respect to the rotational axis of the driven burr.

The mill for spice products, in particular such as cinnamon sticks, houses a reservoir for storing the spice product. The reservoir communicates through a passage, with a grinding mechanism. The reservoir includes a mechanism for fragmenting the spice product. The mechanism for fragmenting are defined by a crusher of the spice product.

The grinder includes a container having a discharge opening for material to be ground; first and second grinding tools, the first tool rotatable relative to the second grinding tool about a rotation axis for crushing the material in a gap between the tools. The second tool has an inlet channel limited by a wall section around the axis for supplying material into the gap and is moveable relative to the first tool axially to the axis. A collar seal between container and second tool has a through-channel for discharging material into the inlet channel and is stationary relative to the container so that a first annular collar seal section limiting the through-channel contacts the container and overlaps the second tool wall section toward the axis. The collar seal includes a second annular section connected to the first annular section via an elastic spring and supported on a contact surface.
