The mounting system, consisting of a top cover, main shaft, connecting rod, mounting rod, slide rail, slider, first fixing hole, second fixing hole, and cleaning brush, facilitates cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing vessel after its operation. When cleaning is needed, the operator opens the inspection port, slides the cleaning brush into the slide rail via the slider, and then secures it through the first and second fixing holes with fasteners. The drive motor then drives the main shaft, which, through the connecting rod and mounting rod, moves the cleaning brush to remove material adsorbed on the inner wall of the mixing vessel. This method is simple to operate, facilitates cleaning and maintenance of the mixing vessel, and ensures normal subsequent use.

[0007] Preferably, a conversion box is provided at the bottom of the mixing vessel body, and a water inlet pipe is provided through the bottom of the conversion box.
