The sphere is positioned inside the discharge pipe, and the supporting device is installed on the storage cylinder to drive the sphere to move up and down and to mix and stir the material in the storage cylinder. Solid material is fed into the storage cylinder through the feeding hopper. The supporting device drives the sphere to move upward, thereby discharging the material in the storage cylinder downward through the discharge pipe onto the conical mesh plate. At this time, the vibrating device drives the conical mesh plate to vibrate up and down, thereby distributing the solid material downward evenly, effectively improving the material distribution effect and improving the material processing quality. At the same time, the supporting device mixes and stirs the material in the storage cylinder, improving the smoothness of material discharge, reducing the danger to personnel during material distribution, and improving the safety of use.

[0009] Preferably, the driving device includes a top plate and an electric cylinder. The bottom end of the top plate is connected to the top end of the connecting rod, and the electric cylinder is installed at the top of the storage cylinder. The moving end of the electric cylinder is connected to the bottom end of the top plate.
