[0026] In this embodiment, a bump is added to the surface of the guide plate, and a protrusion is added to the top surface of the bump, so that when the material bag moves along the guide plate, the bump and the protrusion can press the rolling material bag, so that the connection between the packaging bag and the silage becomes loose, so as to facilitate the subsequent separation of the packaging bag from the silage.

[0027] In another embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the lower end of the guide plate has a horizontal section, and an ultrasonic sensor is provided at one end of the bottom surface of the connecting plate 10. The ultrasonic pulses emitted by the ultrasonic sensor can be reflected back by the horizontal section.

By adding the third telescopic member and the plug plate, when the right half of the material bag falls, the right half presses the hypotenuse surface of the plug plate, and the third telescopic member contracts and does not hinder the falling of the right half. After the pressure on the right half disappears, the spring drives the third telescopic member to reset, and the edge of the left half of the material bag is embedded in the plug plate, and the packaging bag and the silage are separated by the plug plate, further improving the separation efficiency of the packaging bag and the silage.

[0031] In another embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, a loading assembly 22 is provided on the outer side of the material bag inlet 2 , and a receiving plate is provided between the material bag inlet 2 and the output end of the loading assembly 22 .
