[0024] In the embodiment, the heating device heats the lithium battery powder raw material, evaporates the impurities and moisture after sintering, and discharges the exhaust gas through the exhaust pipe 4. After the two sintering processes, the discharge assembly discharges the lithium battery powder after removing the impurities into the cooling device 1. The cooling device 1 cools the lithium battery powder and discharges it through the discharge assembly to obtain the lithium battery powder product. This horizontal mixing kiln structure replaces the traditional sintering technology kiln production line, greatly reduces the occupied area, reduces energy consumption and loss, shortens the processing time, and improves the work efficiency. The lithium battery powder raw material in the rotating tank 3 is mixed under the mixing effect of the rotating tank 3. The sintering of the lithium battery powder raw material is more uniform, and the impurities in all materials are sintered and evaporated during the dynamic mixing process, so that the lithium battery powder after processing contains less impurities and has higher purity, and the quality of the lithium battery powder is better. At the same time, the rotating tank 3 replaces the traditional technology kiln's sagger, which reduces the production cost. In addition, nitrogen is filled into the rotating tank 3 through the air inlet pipe 5, and the oxygen in the rotating tank 3 is discharged through the exhaust pipe 4, so that the rotating tank 3 reaches an oxygen-free environment, avoiding the oxidation of the lithium battery powder raw material during heating, and improving the quality of the lithium battery powder. The oil injection nozzle 48 regularly injects lubricating oil into the oil channel 47, and the graphite packing assembly is kept lubricated, thereby improving the service life. The thin-wall bearing 32 is provided between the feeding ring 20 and the feeding inclined cone 18, and between the discharging ring 22 and the discharging inclined cone 19, so that the equipment injects gas into the air channel 60 through the gas injection nozzle 61 during operation. The gas passes through the first groove 58, the second groove 59, the first groove 58, and the second groove 59 in sequence, and finally enters the rotating tank 3 through the gap. The first groove 58 and the second groove 59 are arranged in a staggered and communicated manner to form a labyrinth air seal, which prevents materials from entering the gap during equipment operation, thereby affecting the sealing between the feeding ring 20 and the feeding inclined cone 18, and between the discharging ring 22 and the discharging inclined cone 19. The discharging inclined cone 19 does not perform discharging operation when it rotates in the forward direction, and the material will enter the feeding groove 52 and move to the discharging port 51 position for discharging operation when the discharging inclined cone 19 rotates in the reverse direction. Since the guide vane 40 is arc-shaped as a whole, the feeding groove 52 can accommodate more material, increasing the discharging speed. Moreover, the material will slide to the bottom of the feeding groove 52 (arc-shaped) due to its own weight. With the continuous reverse rotation of the discharging inclined cone 19, the bottom of the feeding groove 52 (arc-shaped) is always changing, so that the material always has a tendency to slide to the discharging port 51, further accelerating the discharging speed. The transition ring 53 in the inner wall of the discharging flange 23 is raised inward in the middle to form an angle. One side of the transition ring 53 smoothly transitions with the inner wall of the discharging inclined cone 19, and the other side smoothly transitions with the inner wall of the discharging hopper 25, effectively preventing material from depositing on the inner wall of the discharging flange 23, avoiding affecting the sealing, and making the discharging more complete. The driving cylinder 55 can move the discharging tongue 57 left and right. When the material is mixed, the discharging tongue 57 moves to the right to make the discharging tongue 57 abut against the transition ring 53 to complete the sealing of the discharging port 51. When discharging, the discharging tongue 57 moves to the left to separate from the transition ring 53. The structure is stable and reliable.The isolation frame 54 is arranged to keep the air cylinder 55 away from the rotary tank 3, so that the air cylinder 55 is prevented from working in a high-temperature environment for a long time, and the service life of the air cylinder 55 is prolonged.
