Here, the fixing frame 41 can be locked inside the outer barrel 1 by bolts, and a through groove is provided on the fixing frame 41 for installing the movable support, and a supporting surface facing the processing barrel 2 is formed in the through groove; the movable support here includes a nut 43 and a screw 42, the temperature control device 44 is provided at the top of the screw 42, the screw 42 is connected to the nut 43, and a supporting surface facing the processing barrel 2 is provided on the fixing frame 41, and the elastic member 45 is provided between the supporting surface and the top of the screw 42 to make the temperature control device 44 higher than the heating plate 3 when the processing barrel 2 is not placed on the heating plate 3, and to make the temperature control device 44 press against the outside of the processing barrel 2 when the processing barrel 2 is placed on the heating plate 3. In this solution, since the screw 42 is connected to the nut 43 by threading, the height of the temperature control device 44 in the unpressurized state can be adjusted by adjusting the depth of the screw 42 in the nut 43. The temperature control device 44 is an existing temperature measuring device, such as an existing NTC device, which is connected to a control system, and the control system controls the heating plate to heat in real time according to the temperature detected by the temperature control device 44 to achieve the purpose of temperature control.
