A guide cylinder 13 is provided on the upper surface of the frame 12. A notch 14 is provided in the middle of the guide cylinder 13, and the feed end of the guide cylinder 13 is connected to the discharge end of the connecting sleeve 6.

Furthermore, the cooling system includes a cooling coil located within the storage tank 1, with both ends of the cooling coil connected to an external cooling water tank 15. The cooling water tank 15 is electrically connected to the control center 11. Specifically, the alcohol-based fuel liquid is stored within the storage tank 1. The temperature sensor 17 monitors the temperature of the alcohol-based fuel liquid in real time. When the temperature exceeds a set point, the control center 11 controls the valve on the cooling water tank 15 to open based on the detection signal, allowing cooling water to enter the cooling coil, exchanging heat with the alcohol-based fuel liquid. The cooling water then flows back to the cooling water tank 15 through a pipeline, maintaining the cooling water in the cooling coil in a "running water" state.

[0037] S1: The prepared alcohol-based fuel liquid is pumped into storage tank 1. Control center 11 controls the valve on cooling water tank 15 to open, allowing cooling water to flow into the cooling coil to cool the alcohol-based fuel liquid. When the alcohol-based fuel liquid in storage tank 1 solidifies, control center 11 controls the valve on steam chamber 16 to open, allowing steam to flow into the steam heating coil to raise the temperature of the alcohol-based fuel liquid, thereby maintaining the alcohol-based fuel liquid. Furthermore, in step S1, the temperature of the prepared alcohol-based fuel liquid is 65°C. Furthermore, in step S1, cooling water flows into the cooling coil to cool the alcohol-based fuel liquid to 50°C.

[0038] S2: The control center 11 controls the valve on the discharge pipe to open, and the alcohol-based fuel enters the high-pressure gear pump 2. The high-pressure gear pump 2 pumps the alcohol-based fuel into the cooling and forming tube 4, and introduces cooling water into the cavity to cool the alcohol-based fuel in the cooling and forming tube 4. When the alcohol-based fuel is cooled to below 40°C, a solid gel is formed. The gel is then shaped into a molded solid alcohol-based fuel 7 through a pipeline;

[0039] S3: The high-pressure gear pump 2 continuously pumps new alcohol-based fuel liquid, and the formed solid alcohol-based fuel 7 enters the connecting sleeve 6 and is finally extruded from the discharge end of the connecting sleeve 6;

The control center 11 controls the servo motor 8 to drive the blade 10 to cut the solid alcohol-based fuel 7 according to the signal, and the cut alcohol-based fuel blocks fall into the collection bag. Specifically, the control center 11 controls the valve to open and controls the high-pressure gear pump 2 to start. The high-pressure gear pump 2 pumps the alcohol-based fuel liquid in the storage tank 1 into the cooling forming tube 4. At this time, the control center 11 controls the valve on the cooling water tank to open, so that the cooling water flows into the cavity between the cooling forming tube 4 and the outer tube body 5 through the pipeline, and the alcohol-based fuel liquid in the cooling forming tube 5 is cooled to become a solid. During the cooling process, the cooling water in the cavity is in a flowing state, that is, a pipeline is also provided at the other end of the cavity to lead out the cooling water, thereby facilitating the injection of new cooling water into the cavity. Since the high-pressure gear pump 2 continuously pumps in new alcohol-based fuel liquid, the formed alcohol-based fuel enters the connecting sleeve 6 and is finally squeezed out from the discharging end of the connecting sleeve 6, thereby realizing the continuous molding of the alcohol-based fuel liquid. The formed alcohol-based fuel is continuously discharged from the connecting sleeve 6. The solid alcohol-based fuel 7 is extruded and enters the guide cylinder 13. The staff can observe the quality of the formed solid alcohol-based fuel 7 through the gap 14. The formed solid alcohol-based fuel 7 is discharged through the guide cylinder 13. At this time, the laser transmitter arranged on the laser measurement system 9 emits laser in real time. When the laser contacts the formed solid alcohol-based fuel 7, it will be reflected and received by the receiver on the laser measurement system 9, and then the signal is transmitted to the control center 11. After receiving the signal, the control center 11 controls the servo motor 8 to start, and the servo motor 8 drives the blade 10 to rotate quickly for one circle, and immediately stops rotating, thereby cutting the formed solid alcohol-based fuel 7 into blocks of a certain length. The cut solid alcohol-based fuel 7 falls into a collecting belt (not shown) and enters the next processing stage, thereby realizing fixed-length cutting, improving the quality of cutting, and avoiding waste of scraps during segmentation.
