[0043] The first conveyor line 2 is divided into a loading section 21 and a strapping section 22 along its conveying direction, and further includes two rows of strapping stations 4 corresponding to the two strapping sections 22. Each row of strapping stations 4 includes a plurality of strapping stations 4 arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the strapping section 22.
[0044] Workers fill a preset weight of fillings into cups in the loading section 21. The filling of one cup is the amount of filling for one zongzi. The filled cups are transported to the bundling section 22 by the first conveyor line 2. Workers in the bundling station 4 take the cups with fillings from the bundling section 22, pour them into the zongzi leaf cavity they have folded, and start bundling. At the same time, they put the empty cups on the second conveyor line 3. The second conveyor line 3 transports the empty cups back, and the empty cups can eventually return to the loading section 21, forming a cycle. In this way, the weight of the fillings of the zongzi is more accurate, the workers' bundling speed is faster, the layout of the entire production line is more reasonable, the efficiency of making zongzi is effectively improved, and the quality of the zongzi is guaranteed.

The second conveyor line 3 includes a second conveyor belt 31, which includes a second driving wheel 311, a second driven wheel 312, a second chain plate 313 and a second motor 314.
[0046] The frame 1 is provided with a first drive shaft 5 and a second drive shaft 6, the first driving wheel 231 is fixed on the first drive shaft 5, the second driven wheel 312 is rotatably connected to the first drive shaft 5, the first motor 234 drives the first drive shaft 5 to rotate, the second driving wheel 311 is fixed on the second drive shaft 6, the first driven wheel 232 is rotatably connected to the second drive shaft 6, the second motor 314 drives the second drive shaft 6 to rotate, the first chain plate 233 is transmission-connected to the first driving wheel 231 and the first driven wheel 232, and the second chain plate 313 is transmission-connected to the second driving wheel 311 and the second driven wheel 312;
[0047] When the first driving shaft 5 rotates, it drives the first driving wheel 231 to rotate, while the second driven wheel 312 is rotatably connected to the first driving shaft 5. Therefore, at this time, the second driven wheel 312 does not rotate with the first driving shaft 5. The first driving wheel 231 drives the first chain plate 233 to move, and the first driven wheel 232 only supports the movement of the first chain plate 233.

[0055] When workers are wrapping rice dumplings at the bundling station 4, the wrapped rice dumplings will be placed in a box. After the box is full, it will move to the second track 9. The box can move along the second track 9 and be transported to the next process. After the rice dumplings are taken away in the next process, the empty box will be placed on the first track 8. The empty box can move along the first track 8 to reach each bundling station 4 for workers to take.
[0056] In this embodiment, the second track 9 includes two side plates 91 arranged at intervals and rollers 92 connecting the two side plates 91. The side plates 91 extend along the conveying direction of the strapping section 22. There are multiple rollers 92 and they are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the side plates 91. The boxes can be placed on the rollers 92 and moved by relying on the rollers 92.
