[0056] The product is laterally positioned by the cylinders on both sides of the bag shaping unit 10. After positioning, it enters the unpacking machine. The bag is conveyed to the flipping unit 2, which flips it at a certain angle. The bag opening removal unit 5 sorts and grips one side of the bag, lifts it, and moves it to the position of the cutting unit 4. The cutting knife moves laterally and cuts open the end of the bag, which falls onto the flipping unit 2. The flipping unit 2 flips back to the horizontal position, and the rear end block of the flipping unit 2 rises, conveying the bag to the next station (flipping and unloading station). The bag opening removal unit 7 grips the short side of the bag, and the cylinder of the flipping and unloading unit 8 flips, causing the inner bag to come out and fall onto the inner bag conveyor line. The cylinder of the flipping and unloading unit 8 resets, and the inner bag conveyor line of the inner bag conveying unit 3 starts, outputting from the unpacking machine to the next process.
