[0045] It should be noted that the outer walls of the first discharging assembly 5, the second discharging assembly 6 and the water injection assembly 7 together form a circle with the same diameter as the inner wall of the blending barrel 3, so as to support the rotating shaft 4 when the cover plate is removed.
[0046] In the embodiment, a guide disc 21 is fixed on the upper end surface of the bottom plate 2, a lowest part of the guide disc 21 is provided with a discharging port 22, the discharging port 22 penetrates the bottom plate 2, and the guide disc 21, the blending barrel 3 and the first blending assembly 8 together form a second blending space, and a plurality of mixing leaves are fixed on the rotating shaft 4 located in the second blending space.
[0047] That is, the starch processed by the first blending assembly 8 can be secondarily blended by the plurality of mixing leaves after falling into the second blending space, so as to improve the mixing degree of the starch and the plasticizer.
[0048] In the embodiment, a crown gear 31 is fixed on the inner wall of the blending barrel 3 close to the first discharging assembly 5, and the first discharging assembly 5 and the second discharging assembly 6 are the same in structure and each include:
[0049] A stirring bin 51 is fixed on the rotating shaft 4;
[0050] A stirring shaft 52 is rotatably arranged in the stirring bin 51 and radially arranged along the rotating shaft 4;

[0052] A plurality of stirring leaves 53 are equidistantly fixed on the rotating shaft 4.
[0053] That is to say, when the starch and plasticizer are put into the first discharging assembly 5 and the second discharging assembly 6, the starch and plasticizer can be turned over by the rotation of the stirring blade 53, so that the accumulation of the starch and plasticizer is avoided, and the starch and plasticizer can be moved continuously by the continuous turning over, so that the discharging is facilitated.
[0054] As a preferred embodiment, the inner wall of the stirring bin 51 is provided with a guide wall inclined to the stirring blade 53, and the bottom of the stirring bin 51 is provided with a discharging port 54, the opening of the discharging port 54 is inclined to the inner wall of the blending barrel 3, and the discharging port 54 of the first discharging assembly 5 is larger than the discharging port 54 of the second discharging assembly 6.
[0055] In the embodiment, the water injection assembly 7 comprises:
[0056] A water storage bin 71 is fixed on the rotating shaft 4;
[0057] A water pressing block 72 is slidably arranged in the water storage bin 71, and a plurality of one-way air holes 74 are arranged through the water pressing block 72;
[0058] A lifting handle 73 is threadedly connected to the upper end surface of the water pressing block 72, the upper end surface of the lifting handle 73 is not higher than the upper end surface of the water storage bin 71, and the threaded hole connected with the water pressing block 72 penetrates the water pressing block 72; and

[0060] As a preferred embodiment, the water pressing block 72 will slowly descend in the water storage bin 71 by its own weight without external force.
[0061] It should be noted that when the water storage bin 71 is injected with water, the water pressing block 72 is first lifted upward by the lifting handle 73, and the one-way air hole 74 is opened during lifting to facilitate lifting, then the lifting handle 73 is disassembled, the water pressing block 72 is positioned by an auxiliary tool, and the water storage bin 71 is injected with water through the disassembly opening of the lifting handle 73, the amount of water is increased or decreased according to the amount of starch and plasticizer, then the lifting handle 73 is installed, the auxiliary tool is disassembled, and the driving motor is started to spray water on the inner wall of the blending barrel 3 through the first blending assembly 8 to increase the adhesion.
[0062] In the embodiment, the first blending assembly 8 comprises:

[0069] That is, when the structure of the starch and the plasticizer is destroyed, the rotating speed of the rotating shaft 4 is slow, at this time, the scraping plate 831 is not in contact with the inner wall of the blending barrel 3, when the initial blending of the starch and the plasticizer is completed, the rotating speed of the rotating shaft 4 is increased, and the scraping plate 831 is in contact with the inner wall of the blending barrel 3, thereby scraping the residual blending material on the inner wall of the blending barrel 3.
[0070] Specifically, first, an appropriate amount of water is added to the water injection assembly 7, and water is sprayed on the inner wall of the blending barrel 3 through the first blending assembly 8 to increase the adhesion of the inner wall of the blending barrel 3, then the starch and the plasticizer are respectively put into the discharge assembly one 5 and the discharge assembly two 6, and the starch and the plasticizer are extruded through the first blending assembly 8, thereby destroying the intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bond force existing in the starch, facilitating the transfer of the plasticizer to the starch molecules, improving the blending degree, after the initial blending is completed, the rotating speed of the first blending assembly 8 is increased, thereby scraping the blending material adhered to the inner wall of the blending barrel 3, and the blending material after the initial blending falls into the second blending space for secondary stirring and blending, and after the blending is completed, the material is collected through the discharge port 22.
