[0037] Furthermore, a spring limiting block 1103 for limiting the position of the material is provided on the tray 11 .

[0038] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0039] After the laminating materials and pallets are ready, they automatically enter the corresponding positions of each layer of the hot machine material table through the motor of the loading rack lifting drive device. The hot machine material table motor starts to drive the chain transmission of each layer. The chain pusher moves the material pallet horizontally forward to the designated position of the hot laminating tower. The chain pusher moves to the origin, the hot laminating tower hydraulic starts, and the laminate rises to start hot pressing.

[0040] After the hot lamination work is completed, the laminate board descends back to its original position, the motor of the automatic material transfer device starts, the horizontal side movement of the automatic material transfer device pushes the material tray to the cold lamination tower station, the automatic material transfer device returns to the origin, the cold lamination tower hydraulic pressure starts, and the laminate board rises to start cold pressing work.

[0041] After the cold lamination work is completed, the laminate board drops back to its original position, the motor of the cold machine material table starts to drive the chain transmission of each layer, the chain pusher moves the material tray in the cold lamination tower horizontally backward to the corresponding workstations on each layer of the cold machine material table, and the chain pusher moves to the origin.

[0042] The motor of the lifting drive device of the discharge rack works, and the discharge rack automatically rises to the height of the first layer of the corresponding cold machine material table. The ratchet clamps the ratchet hole of the material tray of the cold machine material table, and the cold machine loading rack transfer motor starts to start. The ratchet clamps the tray and moves back with the chain to the specified position of the cold machine material rack.

[0043] The cylinder of the cooling machine loading rack works, the rack turns over, the products are taken out, and the materials to be laminated are put in.

[0044] After the material preparation is completed, the electric push rod of the cold and hot machine loading rack starts to lift the tray, and the material transfer motor starts to move the material tray horizontally to the right to the hot machine material rack through the conveyor belt. The hot machine loading rack lifting drive device motor starts to automatically enter the first station corresponding to the hot machine material table.

[0045] The motor of the hot machine material table starts to drive the chain of each layer. The chain pushers push the material tray horizontally forward to the designated position of the hot laminating tower. The chain pushers move to the origin, the hot laminating tower hydraulics start, and the laminate rises to start hot pressing.

[0046] The motor of the unloading rack lifting drive device starts working, and the unloading rack automatically rises to the height of the second level of the cold machine material platform. The ratchet locks the ratchet hole of the cold machine material platform material tray, and the cold machine loading rack transfer motor starts to start. The ratchet locks the tray and moves back with the chain to the specified position of the cold machine material rack. The cylinder of the cold machine loading rack works, the rack flips, takes out the product, and puts in the material to be laminated. After the material preparation is completed, the electric top rod of the cold and hot machine loading rack starts to lift the tray, and the transfer motor starts to move the material tray horizontally to the right to the hot machine material rack through the conveyor belt. The motor of the hot machine loading rack lifting drive device starts to automatically enter the second level corresponding to the hot machine material platform.

[0047] And so on, the material trays on each layer of the cold machine material table are transported to the cold machine loading rack, the finished products and prepared materials are taken out, transferred to the hot machine loading rack, and then to the hot machine material table, until each layer is completed.

[0048] The hot machine material table motor starts again and enters the next cycle of work.

[0049] Note: When two people are operating, when the material tray of the cold machine material table is moved to the cold machine material rack, the tray takes the finished product and the prepared material from the cold machine loading rack and the hot machine loading rack one by one, and other actions remain unchanged, so that one person can operate each cold machine loading rack and improve work efficiency.

[0050] The embodiments of the present invention are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementation modes, which are merely illustrative rather than restrictive. Under the guidance of the present invention, ordinary technicians in this field can also make many forms without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention and the claims, all of which are within the protection of the present invention.
