The rotation of the grinding plate 702 improves the grinding efficiency of the grinding teeth 704. The ground graphite can be fed through the lower slot 705 and the filter screen 706. The graphite in the lower part of the crushing box 1 can enter the return cylinder 501 through the feed port 502. The lower motor 503 drives the rotating rod 504 and the spiral feeding blade 505 to rotate. The upper side of the return cylinder 501 has an open structure, which allows the spiral feeding blade 505 to feed the graphite in the return cylinder 501 upward and allow this part of the graphite to be discharged through the upper opening of the return cylinder 501. Thus, the graphite below the return cylinder 501 is recycled back to its upper side for repeated grinding, improving the degree of crushing. In addition, during the grinding process, the rotating ring 708 can drive the scraper 712 to rotate synchronously. The scraper 712 is set to facilitate the discharge of the discharge pipe 6. This completes the use process of the graphite crushing device for lithium battery manufacturing.
