[0031] Working Principle: During operation, the kombucha emulsifying raw materials are fed into the emulsification tank 2 through the feed hopper 4. The motor 5 is then started, driving the rotating shaft 6 to synchronously rotate the stirring blades 7, U-shaped frame 10, and scraper 14. This ensures more thorough mixing of the raw materials and improves the emulsification effect. During rotation, the U-shaped frame 10 and scraper 14 scrape away residual emulsion from the inner wall of the emulsification tank 2 and the lower surface of the tank lid 3, preventing bacterial growth and improving product quality. Furthermore, the rotation of the scraper 14, in conjunction with the sliding rod 11, the limiting block 12, and the first spring 13, ensures proper scraping. While the plate 14 fits tightly against the inner wall of the emulsifying tank 2, it also prevents the scraper 14 from damaging the coating on the inner wall of the emulsifying tank 2, thereby improving the service life of the emulsifying equipment. When it is necessary to clean the stirring components inside the emulsifying tank 2, simply pull the handle 23 to drive the limiting plate 21 to move the insert block 22 out of the handle 23. Under the action of the fixing rod 17, the connecting plate 19, and the square column 20, the second spring 18 is compressed, which releases the overall restriction on the tank cover 3, making it easy to remove the stirring components inside the emulsifying tank 2 for cleaning. It is simple, convenient, and practical.

[0032] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
