[0020] Embodiment 1:

[0021] The following is combined with Figure 1-3The present embodiment describes a uniform mixing device for infant formula milk powder, comprising: a mixing drum 1, the mixing drum 1 is fixed by a supporting mechanism 8, the lower end of the mixing drum 1 is rotatably connected to the bottom plate 2, the bottom plate 2 is connected to the rotating power, the lower half of the mixing drum 1 is provided with two groups of vertically arranged air holes, both groups of air holes are connected to the fan through the air duct 5, the lower surface of the bottom plate 2 is connected with a tube 1 6, the top wall of the mixing drum 1 is connected with two tubes 2 7, the outer ends of the two tubes 2 7 are respectively connected with a hopper and a cloth bag, and solenoid valves are provided in the tubes 1 6 and 2 7;

[0022] When feeding, the solenoid valve of tube 1-6 is closed through the controller, and the raw materials are fed to tube 2-7 through the hopper, and the raw materials enter the mixing barrel 1. When the raw materials are mixed, the solenoid valve of tube 1-6 is closed, the solenoid valve of tube 2-7 at the lower part of the hopper is closed, the rotation power of the bottom plate 2 is turned on, and the fan is turned on. The bottom plate 2 drives the stacked milk powder to rotate in the mixing barrel 1, and the fan blows air to the air hole through the air duct 5. The air outlet of the air hole is sprayed toward the milk powder to mix and stir the rotating milk powder with each other, replacing the traditional mechanical stirring.

[0023] The two groups of air holes include air hole 1 3 and air hole 2 4. The air outlet direction of air hole 1 3 is downward, and the air outlet direction of air hole 2 4 is upward.

[0024] The air holes 1 3 and 2 4 blow air downwards to stir the milk powder, so that the milk powders in different layers above and below can be evenly mixed.

[0025] The supporting mechanism 8 includes a support ear 81, which is connected to the outer wall of the mixing cylinder 1, and a telescopic end of a cylinder 82 is hinged in the support ear 81, and a fixed end of the cylinder 82 is hinged on a bracket 83, and the cylinder bracket 83 is connected to a bottom bracket 84.
