[0039] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects: The rotating motor 9 is started to drive the large disc 1 to rotate forward, the large disc 1 drives the small disc 22 to rotate forward, the multiple inner protruding teeth 19 on the inner wall of the circular groove 23 first mesh with the small gear 18 to drive the small gear 18 to rotate forward, the small gear 18 drives the first stirring shaft 2 to rotate forward, the first stirring shaft 2 drives the first stirring blade 20 to rotate forward, and when the first stirring shaft 2 rotates forward, the meshing action of the first gear 10 and the second gear 14 drives multiple second stirring shafts 15 to rotate in the opposite direction. The second stirring blade 24 is driven to rotate in the opposite direction. One of the second stirring shafts 15 drives one of the third stirring shafts 11 to rotate in the forward direction through the meshing of the second gear 14 and the third gear 16. One of the third stirring shafts 11 drives the other third stirring shafts 11 to rotate in the forward direction in sequence through multiple belts 12. The third stirring shaft 11 drives the third stirring blade 17 to rotate in the forward direction. The mixing tank 5 has three layers of stirring force from the inside to the outside. The direction of each layer of stirring force is opposite, forming an alternating and opposite shear force field, which forces the material to generate multi-directional vortexes in the radial and axial directions at the same time, breaking the "laminar solidification" phenomenon of unidirectional stirring.

[0040] When the multiple internal protruding teeth 19 and the pinion 18 have finished meshing, the multiple external protruding teeth 21 on the outer periphery of the small disc 22 mesh with the pinion 18, causing the pinion 18 to rotate in the opposite direction.

The stirring directions of the three layers of stirring force alternately switch between forward and reverse in sequence. The dynamic direction switching breaks the material flow inertia through bidirectional shear force, forcing the powder to diffuse in different directions and eliminating dead corners. This can more evenly disperse particle agglomeration, especially addressing the electrostatic adsorption and agglomeration problem of iron phosphate powder. Furthermore, the direction switching causes changes in turbulence intensity, promoting the synergistic effect of convective mixing (macroscopic homogenization) and diffusion mixing (microscopic homogenization), and shortening the mixing time.
