The fixed blade 32 is installed on the base 31. The linear moving piece 35 has a moving end capable of moving towards the direction close to or away from the fixed blade 32. The movable blade 34 is installed on the moving end of the linear moving piece 35. The movable blade 34 is integrally connected with an extension plate 36 on one side. The side of the extension plate 36 is coplanar with the side of the movable blade 34. The upper surface of the extension plate 36 is in abutment with the lower surface of the fixed blade 32. When the moving end moves towards the fixed blade 32, the movable blade 34 is tangent to the fixed blade 32. The elastic extruding piece 33 is installed on the base 31. The elastic extruding piece 33 is in abutment with the extension plate 36. The elastic extruding piece 33 can generate an extruding force towards the fixed blade 32 on the extension plate 36. When the elastic extruding piece 33 abuts against the extension plate 36, the extension plate 36 is kept in abutment with the fixed blade 32. In this way, by arranging the extension plate 36 on the movable blade 34 and making the side of the extension plate 36 coplanar with the side of the movable blade 34, the extension plate 36 is kept in abutment with the fixed blade 32. At the same time, by arranging the elastic extruding piece 33, the extension plate 36 is extruded by the elastic extruding piece 33, so that the extension plate 36 and the fixed blade 32 are kept in abutment at all times, thereby reducing the gap between the fixed blade 32 and the movable blade 34. Therefore, when the linear moving piece 35 drives the movable blade 34 to be tangent to the fixed blade 32, the effectiveness of the film cutting by the movable blade 34 and the fixed blade 32 can be improved, so as to improve the service life of the film cutting assembly.

[0085] The base 31 is in the form of a plate. The base 31 is provided with an opening 311. The cutting position is formed between the fixed blade 32 and the movable blade 34. The opening 311 is opposite to the cutting position, so that the film stripping product can enter the cutting position between the fixed blade 32 and the movable blade 34 from the opening 311, thereby facilitating the cutting of the film by the movable blade 34 being tangent to the fixed blade 32 through the linear moving piece 35.

[0086] The linear moving part 35 comprises a moving frame 351 (i.e. a moving end), a driving part 352, a guide part 353 and a transmission rod 354. The moving frame 351 is in sliding fit with the base 31, and the moving frame 351 can move linearly on the base 31 towards the direction of approaching or moving away from the fixed cutter 32. The movable cutter 34 is installed on the moving frame 351. The driving part 352 is a servo motor, a direct current motor, a stepping motor or a motor. The driving part 352 is installed on a corresponding frame body, and keeps a relatively fixed state with the base 31. The guide part 353 is connected to the driving end of the driving part 352, and can be driven to rotate by the driving part 352. The guide part 353 is an eccentric wheel, which rotates coaxially with the driving end of the driving part 352. One end of the transmission rod 354 is hinged to the side surface of the eccentric wheel. The hinged point between the transmission rod 354 and the eccentric wheel is spaced apart from the center of the eccentric wheel. The other end of the transmission rod 354 is hinged to the side surface of the moving frame 351. Thus, a crank slider structure is formed by the moving frame 351, the driving part 352, the guide part 353 and the transmission rod 354, so as to realize the linear movement of the moving end (the moving frame 351) of the linear moving part 35 under the driving action of the driving part 352, and realize the rapid cutting of the film material.

[0087] In order to realize the sliding fit between the moving frame 351 and the base 31, the base 31 is provided with a sliding rail 312, and the length direction of the sliding rail 312 is parallel to the moving direction of the moving end of the linear moving part 35. The moving frame 351 is provided with a sliding block 355, and the sliding block 355 is in sliding fit with the sliding rail 312.

[0088] In order to improve the abutting stability of the extension plate 36 to the fixed cutter 32, the number of the extension plate 36 is two, and the two extension plates 36 are distributed at the two ends of the length direction of the movable cutter 34. The two extension plates 36 correspond to the two ends of the length direction of the fixed cutter 32 respectively. The upper surfaces of the two extension plates 36 of the movable cutter 34 are respectively abutted to the lower surfaces of the two ends of the fixed cutter 32.

[0089] The number of elastic extruding pieces 33 is two, and the two elastic extruding pieces 33 are distributed at two ends of the length direction of the fixed knife 32 and are used for extruding the corresponding two extension plates 36. The elastic extruding piece 33 comprises a spring 331, a movable frame 332 and a pressing roller 38; one end of the spring 331 is installed on the base 31, the movable frame 332 is L-shaped, one end of the movable frame 332 is hinged to the base 31, the other end of the movable frame 332 is connected to the end of the spring 331 away from the base 31, the L-shaped opening 311 of the movable frame 332 faces the spring 331, the corner of the movable frame 332 is integrally connected with a pressing block 37, the pressing block 37 faces the extension plate 36 in the direction of the fixed knife 32, and the pressing roller 38 is rotatably installed on the side of the pressing block 37. Under the elastic force of the spring 331, the pressing block 37 of the movable frame 332 abuts against the extension plate 36 through the wheel surface of the pressing roller 38, so that the extension plate 36 abuts against the side surface of the fixed knife 32. Thus, by arranging the movable frame 332 in the L shape, under the elastic force of the spring 331, the movable frame 332 is flipped about the hinge point between the base 31 and the movable frame 332 in the direction away from the spring 331, and drives the pressing roller 38 to abut against the extension plate 36, so that the extension plate 36 abuts against the side surface of the fixed knife 32, thereby realizing the function of reducing the gap between the fixed knife 32 and the movable knife 34.

[0090] It can be understood that the pressing block 37 of the movable frame 332 extrudes the extension plate 36 in the direction of the fixed knife 32, and also abuts the upper surface of the extension plate 36 against the lower surface of the fixed knife 32, so that the upper surface of the extension plate 36 is coplanar with the upper surface of the movable knife 34, thereby realizing the function of reducing the gap between the fixed knife 32 and the movable knife 34.

[0091] Similarly, the movable frame 332 can be hinged to the base 31, one end of the spring 331 is installed on the base 31, and the other end abuts against one side of the movable frame 332, so that the movable frame 332 can abut the other side against the extension plate 36 under the elastic force of the spring 331. Since the upper surface of the extension plate 36 is coplanar with the upper surface of the movable knife 34, the function of reducing the gap between the fixed knife 32 and the movable knife 34 can be realized.

[0092] In summary, the film piece after cutting is transmitted by the film conveying device, and the film piece can smoothly leave the film conveying assembly, so that the problem of film piece winding on the roller can be solved. The film conveying device and the conveying device 10 are synchronously conveyed by the electric control device 50, the discharging end of the film conveying device is oppositely arranged with the discharging end of the conveying device 10, so that the film piece conveyed by the film conveying device is just covered on the toast surface conveyed by the discharging end of the conveying device 10, and the product with the film is continuously conveyed to complete the film pasting action, so that continuous work can be realized to improve the work efficiency.

[0093] Another embodiment, as shown in the accompanying drawings Figure 11 The first tensioning adjusting bolt 101 is installed on the main frame 100 below the conveying device 10, used for adjusting the tightness of the conveying belt 13, locking the conveying belt when rotating to the left, and loosening the conveying belt when rotating to the right. It also includes a press switch that is turned on when in a pressed state, generating an electrical signal that is transmitted to the PLC controller. The press switch includes a press head 103 and a press seat 102, which are matched and slidingly connected. The press seat 102 is slidingly connected to the main frame 10, and a locking bolt is also provided on the press seat 102 to fix the press seat to the main frame when it slides to a designated position. The press head 103 abuts the bolt head of the first tensioning adjusting bolt 101. After the adjustment of the conveying belt is completed, the laminating machine is normally started, and during the toast conveying process, some vibrations may occur due to the motor driving the machine, which may cause the first tensioning adjusting bolt 101 to loosen. This loosening process is difficult to monitor, so the press switch is introduced in this embodiment. After the adjustment is completed, the press seat is adjusted to the position after the adjustment of the first tensioning adjusting bolt, so that the press head abuts the bolt head of the first tensioning adjusting bolt 101. The press seat 102 is locked, and if the first tensioning adjusting bolt loosens during the laminating machine movement, the press head 103 will be pressed, and an electrical signal will be generated, which will be received by the PLC controller, giving an alarm to the operator to prevent accidents during production.
