A rotating rod 17 is rotatably connected to the middle of the top cover 22. A stirring blade 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 17. The stirring blade 16... The mixing tank 4 has a double helix structure. Rotating the rotating rod 17 causes the stirring blades 16 to mix the raw materials. A bottom plate 1 is provided at the bottom of the mixing tank 4. A bottom mold 9 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the bottom plate 1. An extrusion groove is formed in the middle of the bottom mold 9. A pressing block 21 is provided on the top of the bottom mold 9. The size of the pressing block 21 matches the size of the extrusion groove. A movable plate 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the pressing block 21. A top plate 13 is provided on the top of the movable plate 12. A sliding connection is made in the middle of the top plate 13. The fixed rod 14 can push the moving plate 12 downward by pressing the fixed rod 14 downward, so that the moving plate 12 moves with the pressing block 21. It can extrude and mold the stirred hydrogel by cooperating with the extrusion groove. The four corners of the moving plate 12 are slidably connected with limit rods 10, which can limit the movement of the moving plate 12. The top end of the limit rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 13, and the bottom end of the limit rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 1.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-3The limiting rod 10 has a spring 20 sleeved on its outer wall. One end of the spring 20 is connected to the bottom of the moving plate 12, and the other end is connected to the top of the base plate 1. After extrusion, the moving plate 12 can be reset by the spring 20. A motor 8 is installed on the top of the top cover 22. The drive end of the motor 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod 17, and the motor 8 can drive the rotating rod 17 to rotate.
