The conveying column 121 and the L-shaped connecting piece 122 are connected in damping rotation. In this embodiment, when the operator puts the socks on the sock carrier, by giving a pulling force to the first conveying carrier 12 at the end, multiple conveying carriers 12 are moved away from each other. Due to the limitation of the annular track 11, multiple conveying carriers 12 are still parallel to each other after moving away from each other; a toggle member 13 is provided on the annular track 11, and the toggle member 13 includes three toggle pieces 131 and a toggle center column 132. The three toggle pieces 131 are arranged on the column wall of the toggle center column 132 at equal angles along the circumference of the toggle center column 132. The end of the toggle piece 131 away from the toggle center column 132 is used to toggle the bottom of the conveying carrier 12, so that the conveying carriers 12 are close to each other. The toggle center column 132 can toggle three conveying carriers 12 by rotating one circle.

[0034] Furthermore, since the sizes and models of socks in different batches are not the same, a plurality of sock plates 14 are provided at one end of the conveying carrier 12 away from the circular track 11.

[0036] First, insert the plug plate 141 into the slot 142, and then insert the fixed card block 143 into the slot 145. Since the slot 145 and the slot 142 are connected, the fixed card block 143 passes through the slot 145 and is embedded in the positioning notch 146. At the same time, after the positioning column 1441 and the positioning hole 147 are aligned, the rebound force of the connecting spring 1442 makes the positioning column 1441 embedded in the positioning hole 147, so that the fixed card block 143 and the conveying carrier 12 are relatively fixed, and the sock plate 14 and the conveying carrier 12 are fixed. The fixed card block 143 limits the movement of the sock plate 14 in the vertical direction, which is convenient for the stability of the subsequent sock removal process.

[0043] The implementation principle of an automatic sock-removing steam setting machine in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: after the operator puts the socks on the sock carrier, the driving component drives the sock carrier to rotate circumferentially along the circular track 11, and the sock carrier passes through the steam setting machine and the sock-removing structure in sequence. The steam setting machine sets the socks, and the socks after setting are transported to the sock-removing structure through the driving component. The sock-removing structure removes the socks from the sock carrier, and then puts the next batch of socks on the sock carrier to form a cycle. Moreover, since multiple groups of sock carriers are provided, the sock-putting, setting and sock-removing operations can be carried out simultaneously, which reduces the equipment stop time and improves the equipment working efficiency.
