Abstract
A pepper grinding tool comprises a main body, a socket, a grinding member and a transmission shaft. The socket is received in the main body, and has a rim fitted onto an annular recess in the main body. The grinding member has an outer grinding part and an inner grinding part received in the outer part can be turned for grinding pepper between the inner and the outer grinding parts. The outer grinding part also has a rim; the rim is located under the rim of the socket. Screws are screwed through the rims and into the main body to secure the outer grinding part to the main body. The shaft is connected to the inner grinding part from a lower end, and passed through an upper cover of the pepper grinding tool. Thus, pepper particulate can be dispensed from a bottom of the grinding member very easily without any residue because no any fixing element is arranged under the grinding member to block the exit of the pepper grinding tool.
