[0039] Specifically, before use, the special-shaped pressing plate 62 can be rotated to have a certain gap with the fixed plate 61, and the special-shaped pressing plate 62 rotates to drive the movable shaft 63 to rotate, and at the same time, the vortex spring 631 is wound, at this time, the bag opening can be placed in the gap, and after being placed, the special-shaped pressing plate 62 is released, at this time, the special-shaped pressing plate 62 is restored under the action of the vortex spring 631, so as to fix the bag, facilitate the bagging of bananas, and when the device is moved to a suitable height, the moving ring 4 can be moved downward by pulling the pull ring 52, the moving ring 4 moves downward to drive the triangular block 68 to move downward through the vertical rod 69, the triangular block 68 moves downward to extrude the trapezoidal block 67 to move outward, the trapezoidal block 67 moves outward to drive the rack plate 65 to move outward through the horizontal rod 66, and at the same time, the extension spring B672 is deformed, and the rack plate 65 moves outward to rotate the movable gear 64, the movable gear 64 rotates to drive the movable shaft 63 to rotate, the movable shaft 63 rotates to deflect the special-shaped pressing plate 62 outward, so as to move away from the bag opening, at this time, the bag opening is tightened under the action of the rubber ring, and the bagging work is completed, and after the bagging is completed, the pull ring 52 is released, at this time, the pull ring 52 and the rack plate 65 are restored under the action of the extension spring A54 and the extension spring B672.

[0040] The opening support assembly 7 comprises a fixed rod 71 fixedly installed on one side of the top of the hollow circular plate 1, a rectangular plate 72 fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixed rod 71, a hydraulic cylinder 73 fixedly installed at the bottom of the rectangular plate 72, an active circular ring 74 fixedly installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 73, a rack ring 75 arranged below the bottom of the active circular ring 74, a rotating gear 76 arranged on one side of the rack ring 75, a servo motor 77 arranged at the bottom of the rotating gear 76, the servo motor 77 being fixedly installed on the outer side of the hollow circular plate 1 through a support, the output end of the servo motor 77 being fixedly connected with the center of the bottom of the rotating gear 76, and a plurality of arc-shaped grooves being equally and intermittently arranged on the rack ring 75, and a support rod 78 being movably installed in the inner cavities of the arc-shaped grooves.

[0041] The upper ends of the support rods 78 are respectively fixedly installed with sliding blocks 781, and the tops of the sliding blocks 781 are respectively slidably installed on the bottom surface of the active circular ring 74.

[0042] Specifically, when the bag is fixed on the device, the support rod 78 is also located in the inner cavity of the bag and is attached thereto, and can support the bag, so that the bag is not attached to the surface of the banana under the action of the wind and affects bagging. When the device is moved to a suitable position, the hydraulic cylinder 73 is started to operate. When the hydraulic cylinder 73 operates, the movable ring 74 is moved upward, and when the movable ring 74 is moved upward, the support rod 78 is moved upward away from the inner cavity of the bag through the sliding block 781. After moving away, the rotating gear 76 is driven to rotate by the operation of the servo motor 77, and when the rotating gear 76 rotates, the support rod 78 is moved outward through the arc-shaped groove. At the same time, this setting can also better support the bag. Moving outward can move downward to take out the device.

[0043] Working principle: Before use, the special-shaped pressing plate 62 can be actuated to have a certain gap between the fixed plate 61, and when the special-shaped pressing plate 62 rotates, the movable shaft 63 also rotates, and at the same time, the volute spring 631 is wound. At this time, the bag opening of the bag can be placed in the gap, and after placement, the actuated special-shaped pressing plate 62 is released. At this time, the special-shaped pressing plate 62 is restored under the action of the volute spring 631, and the bag is fixed, which is convenient for bagging bananas. In addition, after the bag is fixed on the device, the support rod 78 is also located in the inner cavity of the bag and is attached thereto, and can support the bag, and when the device is moved upward to a suitable height, the pull ring 52 can be pulled. When the pull ring 52 moves downward, the U-shaped plate 51 moves downward, and when the U-shaped plate 51 moves downward, the movable ring 4 moves downward, and at the same time, the extension spring A54 is stretched. When the movable ring 4 moves downward, the vertical rod 69 drives the triangular block 68 to move downward, and when the triangular block 68 moves downward, the trapezoidal block 67 is extruded to move outward. When the trapezoidal block 67 moves outward, the cross rod 66 drives the rack plate 65 to move outward, and at the same time, the extension spring B672 is deformed. When the rack plate 65 moves outward, the movable gear 64 rotates, and when the movable gear 64 rotates, the movable shaft 63 rotates, and when the movable shaft 63 rotates, the special-shaped pressing plate 62 deflects outward, thereby moving away from the bag opening. At this time, the bag opening is tightened under the action of the rubber ring, and the bagging work is completed. After bagging is completed, the pull ring 52 is released, and at this time, the pull ring 52 and the rack plate 65 are restored under the action of the extension spring A54 and the extension spring B672. In addition, before the pull ring 52 is pulled to move to a suitable position, the hydraulic cylinder 73 needs to be started to operate. When the hydraulic cylinder 73 operates, the movable ring 74 moves upward, and when the movable ring 74 moves upward, the support rod 78 moves upward away from the inner cavity of the bag through the sliding block 781. After moving away, the rotating gear 76 is driven to rotate by the operation of the servo motor 77, and when the rotating gear 76 rotates, the support rod 78 is moved outward through the arc-shaped groove. At the same time, this setting can also better support the bag. Moving outward can move downward to take out the device.
