The driving wheel 6 is away from the side of the driven column 5 to the side of the rotating mounting plate 4 away from the driving wheel 6. The distance on one side is smaller than the distance from the upper surface of the rotating griddle 2 to the upper surface of the annular bracket 3, so that the driving wheel 6 can be prevented from contacting the rotating griddle 2 and contaminating the batter. The driving wheel 6 is meshed with the teeth on the outer circumferential surface of the transmission gear 7 through the teeth arranged on one side. The axis of the transmission gear 7 is fixedly sleeved with one side of the middle part of the flip shovel 8. The middle part of the flip shovel 8 is rotatably plugged with the middle part of the swing limit plate 9. A rotating rod is fixedly arranged on the upper surface of the swing limit plate 9. The swing limit plate 9 is connected to the positioning plate 1 through the rotating rod. 6 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating mounting plate 4, and a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the positioning plate 16, which can provide auxiliary support for the limit plate 9, so as to keep the limit plate 9 able to swing vertically to the ground.
