Abstract
Agitating pins employed in a kneading apparatus extend in the horizontal direction and rotate around a rotation axis of an agitator extending in the horizontal direction, so that the kneading apparatus can repeat a process in which a material is kneaded and beaten against an inner wall surface of a kneading vessel and the material adhering to the inner wall surface of the kneading vessel, especially on the upper side from the rotation axis of the agitator, falls under its own weight through the clearance between the agitating pins. As a result, the material hardly adheres to the inner wall surface of the kneading vessel, so that the kneading efficiency can be enhanced.
