A second longitudinal conical gear 9 is installed at the top of the outer wall of the stirring rod 13. A transverse rotating shaft 18 is provided on one side of each of the second longitudinal conical gears 9, and the transverse rotating shaft 18 is movably disposed inside the support base 5. Transverse conical gears 6 are installed on both sides of the transverse rotating shaft 18. A feed inlet 11 is installed on one side of the top of the vessel cover 4. The transverse conical gears 6 at one end of the transverse rotating shaft 18 mesh with the first longitudinal conical gear 8, and the transverse conical gears 6 at the other end of the transverse rotating shaft 18 mesh with the second longitudinal conical gear 9. Two sets of stirring rods 13 are provided, and the two sets of stirring rods 13 are symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the heating vessel 1. Several stirring blades 12 are provided, and the several stirring blades 12 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the stirring rod 13, resulting in more thorough and uniform stirring of the material inside the heating vessel 1, and greatly improving the stirring efficiency.
[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, when the servo motor 7 drives the stirring paddle 14 to rotate, the first longitudinal bevel gear 8 above the outer wall of the stirring paddle 14 also rotates. The rotation of the first longitudinal bevel gear 8 drives the transverse bevel gear 6 meshing on both sides to rotate. The rotation of the transverse bevel gear 6 here drives the other transverse bevel gear 6 located inside the support base 5 to rotate through the transverse rotating shaft 18. The rotation of the transverse bevel gear 6 inside the support base 5 drives the second longitudinal bevel gear 9 meshing on one side to rotate. The rotation of the second longitudinal bevel gear 9 drives the stirring rod 13, which is movably connected to the support base 5, to drive the stirring blade 12 to rotate on both sides inside the heating vessel 1, and together with the stirring paddle 14, fully stir the material.
[0025] A feed hopper 10 is installed at the top of the feed inlet 11.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the material enters the interior of the heating vessel 1 through the feed inlet 11, it is first poured into the interior of the feed hopper 10. Then, under the gravity of the material, the turning blade 19 can be pushed to rotate on the outer wall of the rotating rod 20, so that the material can be evenly fed into the interior of the heating vessel 1 through the feed hopper 10 for processing.
[0027] Mounting plate 23 has mounting bases 22 on both sides. Mounting rings 21 are movably provided on the outer side walls of mounting bases 22.

[0029] Working principle: In use, water is poured into the heating vessel 1 through the feed inlet 11. The electric heater 2 inside the heating jacket 3 is turned on to heat the heating oil that is put into the heating jacket 3 through the oil inlet 17. After the heating oil is heated, the heat is transferred to the heating vessel 1 to heat the water inside the heating vessel 1. After the water is heated, β-glucan is poured into the heating vessel 1 through the feed hopper 10. Then, the servo motor 7 is turned on to drive the stirring paddle 14 to stir the material inside the heating vessel 1 to promote its dissolution. When the stirring paddle 14 rotates, the first longitudinal bevel gear 8 also rotates, driving the movable connection with the support base 5. The stirring rod 13 drives the stirring blade 12 to rotate on both sides inside the heating vessel 1, and together with the stirring paddle 14, it fully stirs the material. After stirring, the material can be discharged by opening the discharge pipe 15. After the equipment has been used for a period of time, the waste heating oil can also be discharged by opening the oil outlet 16. Then, the mounting rings 21 on both sides are flipped to separate them from the fixed seat 22. Next, the mounting plate 23 is pulled down to move the electric heater 2 out of the heating sleeve 3. The electric heater 2 is taken out for cleaning and maintenance. After cleaning and maintenance, the electric heater 2 is installed back in its original position and new heating oil is poured in to better perform the heating work.
