The first chain plate 1 and the third chain plate 2, and the second chain plate 30 and the fourth chain plate 31 are connected by a connecting assembly with the same structure. The first chain plate 1 and the second chain plate 30, as well as the third chain plate 2 and the fourth chain plate 31, are connected by a mounting assembly with a symmetrical arrangement. The mounting assembly includes a movable rod 32 disposed on the first chain plate 1 and a rotating rod fixedly disposed on the first chain plate 1. The shaft 33 and the mounting post 34 fixedly mounted on the second chain plate 30 are provided. The mounting post 34 has a rotating hole 35 that matches the shaft 33. The first chain plate 1 has a through hole 36 for the movement of the movable rod 32. A stop post 37 is fixedly mounted on one end of the movable rod 32 facing the second chain plate 30. The movable rod is an elastic rod. A first stop block 38 and a second stop block 39 are fixedly mounted on the outer circumference of the mounting post 34. The first stop block 38 and the second stop block 39 are spaced apart. The stop post 37 is located at... A stop post is positioned between the first stop block 38 and the second stop block 39. This stop post acts as a barrier during movement, and because the movable rod is elastic, it also provides cushioning and noise reduction. An arc-shaped mounting strip 40 is fixed to the first chain plate 1, spaced apart from the rotating shaft 33. Speed-reducing plates 41 are fixed to the upper and lower sides of the left side of the arc-shaped mounting strip 40. A noise-reducing plate 42 is fixed to the second chain plate 30, with the noise-reducing plate 42 facing the mounting post 34. An arc-shaped groove 43 is provided, and inclined plates A44 are fixedly connected to the noise reduction plate 41 at both ends of the arc-shaped groove 43. An inclined plate B45 matching the inclined plate A44 is fixed on the side of the arc-shaped mounting strip 40 away from the rotating shaft 33. An mounting assembly is set between the first chain plate 1 and the second chain plate 30, as well as the third chain plate 2 and the fourth chain plate 31. When the first chain plate and the second chain plate rotate, the movable rod contacts the first stop or the second stop, the mounting column contacts the speed reduction plate, and the inclined plate A contacts the inclined plate B, which plays a role in buffering and noise reduction.

[0025] The present invention is further configured such that the opposing surfaces of the first stop block 38 and the second stop block 39 are inclined, and a transition groove 46 is formed in the middle of the inclined surfaces of the first stop block 38 and the second stop block 39. By setting the transition groove, a transition buffering effect is achieved.

A noise reduction block 49 fixedly connected to the first chain plate 1 is provided in the noise reduction groove 48. The cooperation between the noise reduction rod and the noise reduction block also plays a role in noise reduction.

[0027] The present invention is further configured such that: the connecting assembly includes a lower mounting plate 3 and mounting blocks 4 fixedly disposed at the left and right ends of the lower mounting plate 3; the lower end faces of the first chain plate 1 and the second chain plate 2 are respectively provided with mounting grooves 5 that match the mounting blocks 4; the upper surface of the mounting blocks 4 is provided with a groove 6; a limiting block 7 fixedly connected to the mounting blocks 4 is provided in the groove 6; a limiting groove 8 communicating with the groove 6 is provided on the limiting block 7; the upper end face of the limiting block 7 is lower than the upper end face of the mounting blocks 4; a support block 25 is fixed to the bottom wall of the mounting groove; the support block is adapted to the limiting groove; fastening blocks 9 are fixed to the front and rear ends of the mounting blocks 4; and fastening grooves adapted to the fastening blocks 9 are provided on the side walls of the mounting groove 5. 10. The mounting block 4 is fixedly installed below the first chain plate 1 and the second chain plate 2 by engaging the fastening block 9 with the fastening groove 10. This facilitates the fastening connection of the first chain plate and the third chain plate together, making mold opening convenient and assembly easy, thus saving costs for the enterprise. By setting mounting blocks at both ends of the lower mounting plate and fastening blocks on the front and rear sides of the mounting blocks, the mounting blocks and fastening blocks are inserted into the mounting grooves during installation, and then further inserted until the fastening blocks fit into the fastening grooves for a fastening connection. This facilitates the fixed installation of the lower mounting plate with the first chain plate and the second chain plate. The support block and limiting groove provide guidance during installation.

[0028] The invention is further configured such that the lower end face of the fastening block 9 is higher than the upper end face of the limiting block 7. By setting the lower end face of the fastening block to be higher than the upper end face of the limiting block, it achieves a yielding effect when the fastening block moves inward. When the fastening block moves in the direction of the fastening groove, the fastening block will abut against the side wall of the mounting groove, thus achieving a yielding effect and facilitating the movement of the fastening block.
