Abstract
A pepper mill includes a receiving unit, a grinding unit, and an adjusting mechanism. The receiving unit includes a stationary seat and a rotatable seat. The grinding unit includes inner and outer grinding seats. The adjusting mechanism includes an operating base mounted in the rotatable seat and operable to rotate about a rotary axis, and a movable seat disposed between the operating base and the inner grinding seat. The operating base includes a threaded rod extending upwardly into and threadedly engaging the movable seat. The movable seat is connected co-rotatably to the rotatable seat, is movable with the inner grinding seat along the rotary axis, and is not rotatable relative to the rotatable seat. Rotation of the operating base drives the movable seat to move along the rotary axis under guidance of the rotatable seat, thereby driving the inner grinding seat to move along the rotary axis.
