2. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 1, wherein the spinneret further comprises a temperature sensor located on the other side of the guide channel.

3. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a double-wheel extruder comprising a motor and a set of moving wheels, the set of moving wheels comprising a pinch roller and an idler roller; the pinch roller and the idle wheel are arranged oppositely, and a gap is formed between the pinch roller and the idle wheel; the motor drives the pinch roller to rotate.

4. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 3, wherein the movable pulley set further comprises a housing, a spring, and an idler bracket, the idler bracket is journalled in the housing and movable toward the pinch roller, the idler is journalled to the idler bracket and opposite the pinch roller, and the spring is mounted on an inner wall of the housing at one end and bears against the idler bracket at the other end and applies a force to the idler bracket toward the pinch roller.

5. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 3, wherein the two-wheel extruder comprises a drive wheel and two sets of moving wheels, the drive wheel being disposed between and engaging the pressure wheels of adjacent sets of moving wheels.

6. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 3, wherein the movable wheel set further comprises a pinch wheel drive wheel, the pinch wheel being mounted on and rotatable coaxially with the pinch wheel drive wheel, the motor rotating the pinch wheel drive wheel to rotate the pinch wheel.

7. The melt electrospinning apparatus of any one of claims 3 to 6, further comprising a cooling unit disposed between the two-wheel extruder and the spinneret.

8. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 7, further comprising a receiving unit comprising an insulating receiving plate disposed opposite the spinneret.

9. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 8, wherein the receiving unit further comprises a conductive plate, and the insulating receiving plate is located between the spinneret and the conductive plate.

10. The melt electrospinning apparatus of claim 9, further comprising a feed unit comprising a tray, a material break detector to detect feeding, and a dryer to dry the material.
