The gearboxes 6 house the gear transmission system, which is used to transmit power and adjust the rotation direction and speed of the mixing assembly. A mixing auxiliary rod 7 is horizontally arranged between the two gearboxes 6. The mixing auxiliary rod 7 assists the mixing structure and works with the main mixing rod to enhance the mixing effect. The main mixing rod 5 is provided with several first mixing blades 8, which are directly involved in the mixing of materials. The mixing auxiliary rod 7 is provided with several second mixing blades 9, which are installed on the mixing auxiliary rod 7 to increase the material contact points and improve the mixing efficiency.
[0030] It should be noted that the first stirring blade 8 has two different sizes of stirring blades, and the second stirring blade 9 has more stirring contact points or the blades are arranged more closely than the first stirring blade 8 on the same circumference.
[0031] In this embodiment, a first gear 10 is provided at the connection between the gearbox 6 and the stirring main rod 5. A second gear is provided on the top of the first gear 10 and at the connection between the gearbox 6 and the stirring auxiliary rod 7. The first gear 10 and the second gear mesh to transmit power. The first gear 10 meshes with the second gear, and the stirring auxiliary rod 7 achieves reverse rotation with the stirring main rod 5 through the second gear meshing with the first gear 10.
[0032] In this embodiment, sealing gaskets 11 are provided at the connection points between the gearbox 6 and the stirring main rod 5 on both sides. The sealing gaskets 11 ensure the sealing of the connection points between the stirring main rod and the gearbox to prevent leakage. Connecting blocks 12 are provided at the connection points between the stirring main rod 5 and the mixing chamber 3 and on both sides of the mixing chamber 3. The connecting blocks 12 are used to fix the position of the mixing chamber and are connected to the left support platform by bolts. The connecting blocks 12 fix the mixing chamber 3 by bolts.
[0033] Example 2: The drive assembly includes a drive motor 13 located inside the right support platform 2. The drive motor 13 provides the power source required by the mixer. A reducer 14 is provided on one side of the drive motor 13. The reducer 14 connects the drive motor and the transmission shaft to reduce the speed and increase the torque. A transmission shaft 15 is provided on the side of the reducer 14 away from the mixing chamber 3. The transmission shaft 15 transmits power to the stirring main rod and auxiliary structures. The same transmission shaft 15 as the reducer 14 is provided on both sides of the stirring main rod 5. A transmission chain 16 is provided between the transmission shafts 15 on the top and bottom sides. The transmission chain 16 connects the top and bottom transmission shafts to synchronize the rotation of both sides.

The motor then runs, and the reducer 14 reduces speed and increases torque, efficiently transmitting power to the transmission shaft 15. The transmission shaft rotates, driving the main stirring rod 5 and the auxiliary stirring rod 7. The first stirring blade 8 on the main stirring rod 5, along with the rotation of the main rod, performs preliminary large-scale mixing of materials such as spirulina in the mixing chamber 3. Simultaneously, the second stirring blade 9 on the auxiliary stirring rod 7, due to its high circumferential density design, provides finer mixing, ensuring uniform distribution of materials at the microscopic level. The meshing mechanism of the first gear 10 and the second gear allows the auxiliary stirring rod 7 to rotate in the opposite direction to the main stirring rod 5. This design increases the complexity of the material flow path in the mixing chamber, further improving mixing efficiency and uniformity. After mixing is complete, the operator controls the discharge valve 4 to discharge the uniformly mixed spirulina material from the mixing chamber for the next production stage.
[0037] The beneficial effects of the above embodiments are as follows:
[0038] This spirulina double cone mixer, through its multi-directional stirring component design, achieves not only large-scale mixing of materials through the coordinated work of the first stirring blade 8 and the second stirring blade 9, but also ensures high uniformity at the microscopic level. It is particularly suitable for the fine processing of high-requirement materials such as spirulina. The high circumferential density design of the second stirring blade 9 increases the stirring contact points, significantly improving mixing efficiency and the uniformity of the final product. At the same time, the precision gear transmission system of the gearbox 6, the main stirring rod 5, and the auxiliary stirring rod 7 not only realizes the reverse rotation of the stirring blades, enhancing the mixing effect, but also maintains the compactness of the equipment.
