Under the current production conditions, the small standard test engine with the charging tooling has a large aspect ratio, large ends, and a small middle. After the vulcanization, the small standard test engine needs to be transported to the demoulding and shaping workshop. Due to its unique structural characteristics, there are safety risks such as dumping during the transportation process. In addition, with the annual increase in the amount of charging tasks, the production volume of random small test engines has also increased. A large number of small test engines need to be transported every day, so the anti-dumping measures have been put forward for light and simple structures. Summary of the invention
