An operation screen 12 is provided on the outer side wall of the outer casing 1.
[0028] The fixing assembly includes a support frame 13, a mold rotating disk 14, a second hollow connecting column 15, a third motor 16, a second rotating shaft 17, an annular clamping mold 18, a third hollow connecting column 19, a fourth motor 20, a third rotating shaft 21, and a pressing head 22. The support frame 13 is provided on the other side of the fixed rack and pinion track 2. The mold rotating disk 14 is provided around the support frame 13. The second hollow connecting column 15 is fixed to the lower wall of the mold rotating disk 14. The third motor 16 is fixed below the second hollow connecting column 15. The second rotating shaft 17 is provided at the rotating end of the third motor 16. The annular clamping mold 18 is provided at the other end of the second rotating shaft 17. The third hollow connecting column 19 is fixed to the top surface of the support frame 13. The fourth motor 20 is fixed above the third hollow connecting column 19. The third rotating shaft 21 is provided at the rotating end of the fourth motor 20. The pressing head 22 is provided at the other end of the third rotating shaft 21.
[0029] The first motor 4 and the gear slider 3 form a fixed structure, and the first hollow connecting column 6 and the rotating plate 5 form a rotating structure through the operation of the first motor 4.
[0030] The rotating plate 5 is fixed to the second motor 7 via the first hollow connecting column 6, and the support plate 9 and the first rotating shaft 8 are rotated by the operation of the second motor 7.
[0031] The side-wall clamping mold 10 and the support plate 9 form a fixed structure. The side-wall clamping mold 10 has four sets of symmetrically distributed about the center line of the support plate 9. First, the two sets of side-wall clamping molds 10 at one end of the support plate 9 clamp the thermos cup mold 11. Then, the two sets of side-wall clamping molds 10 at the other end of the support plate 9 release the thermos cup mold 11. The polished mold is placed, and the unpolished mold is clamped, thus completing the quick replacement of the thermos cup mold 11. Next, the first motor 4 is turned on, which drives the side-wall clamping mold 10 and the thermos cup mold 11 to rotate. The un-clamped end of the support plate 9 is moved to the outside of the thermos cup mold 11 that has just been polished and clamped.

After the unpolished thermos cup mold 11 is placed, it can be lowered and pressed by the pressing head 22 above the thermos cup mold 11 to fix it stably. Then, the thermos cup mold 11 can be rotated and polished by opening the third motor 16 and the fourth motor 20.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment further illustrates Example 1.

[0036] The first polishing robot 23 and the second polishing robot 24 are symmetrically distributed about the center line of the support frame 13. When the thermos cup mold 11 is fixed and rotated, the mold rotating disk 14 rotates one station, and the second polishing robot 24 polishes the thermos cup body. Then it rotates another station, and the first polishing robot 23 can also polish the thermos cup body. The two can be performed simultaneously.
[0037] Working principle: First, the thermos cup mold 11 is clamped by the two sets of side wall clamping molds 10 at one end of the support plate 9. Then, the two sets of side wall clamping molds 10 at the other end of the support plate 9 are released from the thermos cup mold 11. The polished mold is placed in place, while the unpolished mold is clamped, completing the quick replacement of the thermos cup mold 11. Next, the first motor 4 is turned on, causing the side wall clamping molds 10 and the thermos cup mold 11 to rotate. The un-clamped end of the support plate 9 is moved to the outside of the just-polished thermos cup mold 11 and clamped. Then, the second motor 7 is turned on, causing the side wall clamping molds to rotate. Rotate the thermos cup mold 10 and the thermos cup mold 11, then place the unpolished thermos cup mold 11 on top. The pressing head 22 on top of the thermos cup mold 11 will then lower and press it down to secure it stably. Then, the third motor 16 and the fourth motor 20 will be turned to rotate and polish the thermos cup mold 11. The mold rotating disk 14 will rotate one station, and the second polishing robot 24 will polish the thermos cup body. Then, it will rotate another station, and the first polishing robot 23 will also polish the thermos cup body. Both can be done simultaneously. This operation can be controlled by the operation screen 12.
