When the first sprocket rotates, it drives the outer gear ring to rotate through the transmission gear. When the outer gear ring rotates, it drives the magnet ring to rotate. When the magnet ring rotates, it drives the slip ring to rotate along the inside of the ring groove, which increases the stability of the magnet ring when rotating. When the magnet ring rotates, it causes the magnetic steel rod to rotate along the shaft seat and the first sealing shaft through magnetic coupling. When the magnetic steel rod rotates, it drives several stirring rods to rotate through the first rotating rod, thereby effectively stirring the material.
