By providing a stirring structure 8, the drive shaft 302 drives the rotating gear disk 802 to rotate, so that the gear at the bottom of the small rotating rod 803 drives the mounting rod 805 to rotate under the rotating disk 804. The stirring rod 807 and the stirring scraper 808 stir the mixture inside the fermentation tank 1. At the same time, the stirring scraper 808 can scrape the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1 to prevent the mixture from sticking to the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the blanking structure 5 is arranged at both ends of the external plate 4, and is used for blanking in batches to prevent excessive accumulation of the same type of raw materials, which affects the mixing efficiency. The blanking structure 5 includes a connecting block 501 fixed to both ends of the external plate 4, a blanking pipe 502 arranged inside the connecting block 501, and a sliding groove 503 opened on the side of the connecting block 501 close to the external plate 4, wherein the bottom end of the blanking pipe 502 is connected to the interior of the fermentation tank 1, the limit block 6 is fixed to both sides of the top of the external plate 4, and the top cross-section of the external plate 4 is "U"-shaped.
