[0026] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is based on the technical solution of the present invention and provides detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures; however, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0027] refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a mixing tank, including a tank body 1, a shell 2 on the top of the tank body 1, both the tank body 1 and the shell 2 are cylindrical, a moving component 6 is slidably connected to the bottom of the tank body 1, and a driving component 7 is connected to the side of the tank body 1. The moving component 6 and the driving component 7 are arranged on a horizontal plate 8.

[0028] The bottom surface of the horizontal plate 8 is equipped with a control mechanism 5.

[0029] refer to Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the tank body 1 and the shell 2 are equipped with a main stirring mechanism 3 and a secondary stirring mechanism 4. The main stirring mechanism 3 includes a driving component 31, which can be a motor. The top of the driving component 31 is located at the top of the inner cavity of the shell 2. The output end of the driving component 31 is fitted with a driving plate 32, which is elliptical and located in the inner cavity of the shell 2. The output end of the driving component 31 is equipped with a first stirring component 33, which is located in the inner cavity of the tank body 1.

[0030] The stirring mechanism 4 includes an elastic element 41, which can be a spring. The elastic element 41 is symmetrically arranged along the axis of the housing 2. One end of the elastic element 41 is connected to the inner cavity side wall of the housing 2, and the other end is connected to the connecting plate 42. The side of the connecting plate 42 away from the elastic element 41 is connected to the slide groove 43. The outer edge of the long shaft of the drive plate 32 is arranged in the groove of the slide groove 43.

[0031] The bottom of the connecting plate 42 is connected to the second stirring element 44, which is located inside the tank 1.

[0032] The driving component 31 drives the first stirring component 33 to stir the fragrance in the can. The stirring mechanism 4 uses the cooperation of the elliptical driving plate 32 and the slide 43, as well as the action of the elastic component 41, to make the second stirring component 44 reciprocate to assist in stirring. The combination of the two stirring methods significantly improves the uniformity and efficiency of stirring, and allows the various components of the fragrance to mix better.

[0033] The second stirring component 44 includes a support plate 441. The top of the support plate 441 is connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 42, and the bottom of the support plate 441 is connected to a deflecting plate 442. The deflecting plate 442 is evenly provided with multiple guide grooves 443. The guide grooves 443 can guide the flow direction of the fragrance, change the flow state of the fragrance, enhance the stirring effect of the stirring mechanism 4, and make the auxiliary stirring effect more obvious.

[0034] The top of the connecting plate 42 is provided with a movable sleeve 421, and the movable rod 422 slides through the movable sleeve 421. One end of the movable rod 422 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity side wall of the housing 2, and the diameter of the other end is increased to limit the movement of the movable rod 422 within the movable sleeve 421.

[0035] During stirring, the movable sleeve 421 and the movable rod 422 cooperate to ensure that the connecting plate 42 reciprocates in the radial direction of the movable rod 422, thereby ensuring that the reciprocating motion of the second stirring component 44 is in the same direction, and ensuring that the second stirring component 44 will not deviate or shake when moving.

[0036] The first stirring component 33 includes multiple stirring blades 331 and multiple stirring rods 332. In this embodiment, the stirring blades 331 are arranged in groups of four, and each group of stirring blades 331 is evenly and circumferentially arranged on the output end of the driving component 31. Similarly, the stirring rods 332 are arranged in groups of four, and each group of stirring blades 331 is evenly and circumferentially arranged on the output end of the driving component 31. The stirring blades 331 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. This distribution method can expand the stirring range and increase the contact area with the fragrance when the driving component 31 drives it to rotate, thereby further improving the stirring effect of the main stirring mechanism 3 and making the stirring more thorough.

[0037] refer to Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, there are two moving components 6. Each moving component 6 includes two support blocks 61. The bottom of each support block 61 is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate 8. A sliding rod 62 is fixedly connected between the two support blocks 61. A sliding sleeve 63 is slidably fitted on the surface of the sliding rod 62. The sliding sleeve 63 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank 1. The sliding rod 62 and the sliding sleeve 63 of the moving component 6 cooperate with each other, and the sliding sleeve 63 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank 1. This structure allows the tank 1 to slide stably on the sliding rod 62, ensuring the smooth movement of the tank 1 and providing reliable support for the change of position of the tank 1 during the stirring process, which is beneficial to improving the stirring effect.

[0038] The drive assembly 7 includes a vertical plate 71, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate 8. A telescopic rod 72 is threaded through the surface of the vertical plate 71. The telescopic rod 72 is an electric telescopic rod, and its output end is fixedly connected to the tank 1. A limiting rod 73 is threaded through the surface of the vertical plate 71. One end of the limiting rod 73 is fixedly connected to the tank 1, and the diameter of the other end is increased to limit the movement of the limiting rod 73 within the vertical plate 71. The telescopic rod 72 extends and retracts as follows: the motor drives the lead screw to rotate, and the nut engages with the lead screw. Since the nut is fixed to the telescopic rod 72, the rotation of the lead screw will push the nut to move axially, thereby driving the telescopic rod to extend and retract. The electric telescopic rod 72 can precisely control the movement of the tank 1, while the limiting rod 72 ensures that the tank 1 will not deviate or shake during the movement, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the movement of the tank 1, thereby ensuring the stirring effect.

[0039] The drive component 7 can control the movement of the tank 1 on the moving part 6, so that the position of the tank 1 can be changed continuously during the stirring process, allowing the flavoring to have more opportunities to flow and mix inside the tank 1, further improving the uniformity and all-roundness of the stirring.

[0040] refer to Figure 1 , 5 As shown, the control mechanism 5 includes a control box 51. The top of the control box 51 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate 8. A base plate 54 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the control box 51. The mixing tank is placed on the workbench through the base plate 54. A storage battery 52 and a controller 53 are fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the control box 51 and the top of the base plate 54. The storage battery 52 is connected to the drive component 31 and the telescopic rod 72 through wires. The controller 53 is connected to the drive component 31 and the telescopic rod 72 through control wires.

[0041] The storage battery 52 provides power for the operation of the equipment, ensuring its normal operation; the controller 53 can control the drive component 31 and the electric telescopic rod 72, making it convenient for operators to adjust the working status of the mixing tank according to actual needs, thus improving the operability and intelligence of the equipment.

[0042] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the drive component 31 is activated, the drive component 31 drives the first stirring component 33 to rotate in a circular motion inside the tank 1 to stir the fragrance in the tank. When the drive component 31 rotates, the drive plate 32 rotates accordingly. During the rotation, the drive plate 32 cooperates with the slide groove 43, so that the connecting plate 42 reciprocates under the action of the elastic component 41, thereby driving the second stirring component 44 to reciprocate to assist in stirring the fragrance and enhance the stirring effect. When the electric telescopic rod 72 is activated, the telescopic rod 72 extends and retracts to push the tank 1 to slide back and forth on the slide rod 62, so that the fragrance can be stirred more evenly and comprehensively during the stirring process.

[0043] The beneficial effects are as follows: This utility model combines circumferential stirring with reciprocating stirring, enabling the fragrance to flow and mix fully in all directions and from multiple angles within the tank 1, avoiding uneven mixing in certain areas. At the same time, an auxiliary device is set on the outside to make the tank 1 reciprocate in the horizontal direction. This efficient stirring method can ensure that the various components of the fragrance are deeply blended, greatly improve the uniformity of product mixing, meet the stringent requirements of fragrance production for high-quality mixing, help improve the quality of fragrance products, and enhance the market competitiveness of products.
