[0004] 1. The polyester granule mixing vessel for polyester film production disclosed in the patent document with patent publication number CN214725474U, in the process of use, the stirring mechanism is operated to stir and mix the materials inside the mixing tank. However, multiple sets of stirring rods can only rotate in the same direction, and stirring the materials inside the mixing tank in a single direction requires more time to stir, so that the materials are mixed evenly and the mixing efficiency is reduced.

[0005] 2. The polyester granule mixing tank for polyester film production disclosed in the patent document with patent publication number CN214725474U involves starting a hot air blower to allow hot gas to enter the interior of the mixing tank through the air inlet pipe, and the raw materials inside the mixing tank come into contact with the hot gas to achieve drying. However, it is not convenient to stir the material multiple times, and the hot gas enters the interior of the mixing tank from a single direction, causing uneven heating of the material and reducing the drying quality of the material.

[0006] To address these issues, we provide a stirred tank for the production of recycled polyester granules. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a stirring kettle for the production of recycled polyester granules. By setting a stirring component, it is convenient to stir in different directions at the same time, thereby accelerating the efficiency of uniform mixing of recycled polyester granules. By setting a heating component, the recycled polyester granules are heated and dried evenly and repeatedly, thereby improving the drying quality of the recycled polyester granules. This solves the technical problem mentioned in the background art of the polyester granule stirring kettle for the production of polyester film disclosed in the patent document with patent publication number CN214725474U.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
