Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bookbinding technology, specifically to a binding and sorting device for printed books. Background Technology

[0002] Printed books are publications that use printing technology to reproduce text, images, and other content onto paper or other media and then bind them into a book. On a book printing production line, the printing stage only produces scattered, unprocessed "semi-finished products," while binding and finishing transform these semi-finished products into a "finished book" that is easy to read, can be preserved for a long time, and has a complete structure.

[0003] The patent with publication number CN220723054U discloses a page integration structure for book printing, including a base. A conveyor belt is arranged in the middle of the upper end of the base. Adjustment boxes are fixed on both sides of the upper end of the base. A limit strip is movably arranged on one side of the adjustment box. An adjustment structure is arranged between the limit strip and the adjustment box. The two limit strips are located on both sides of the upper end of the conveyor belt. The book pages are placed on the conveyor belt and are located between the two limit strips, so that the two sides of the book pages are limited and aligned together, which facilitates the arrangement of the book pages. The book pages move under the action of the conveyor belt. When the book pages move to the position of the movable stop, one end of the book page can be integrated, so that both ends of the book page are kept flat. After the book pages are flat, the movable stop is squeezed, causing the movable stop to rotate, so that the book pages can move with the conveyor belt, which facilitates the subsequent binding.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned integrated structure still has the following problems in actual use: In the bookbinding process, the binding machine usually needs to first stack the printed "semi-finished" paper neatly, then punch holes in the paper uniformly through the built-in perforation mechanism, and then the threading mechanism automatically threades the paper, thus realizing the complete transformation of the book from loose pages to finished product.

[0005] However, during the punching process, the equipment will generate a certain amount of paper scraps. These paper scraps fall naturally under the influence of gravity and are collected in the waste bin below the binding machine platform. Since a single binding machine may process thousands of books per day, the total amount of paper scraps generated by punching is large and can quickly fill the waste bin, resulting in frequent cleaning.

[0006] It is worth noting that most binding machines are only equipped with one waste bin. During the cleaning process, the operation must be stopped. Otherwise, the paper scraps generated by punching will scatter into the work area and pollute the production environment. This downtime caused by waste cleaning directly affects the overall production efficiency and continuity. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a binding and finishing device for printed books, which is particularly suitable for cleaning up waste generated during punching of printed books without stopping the machine.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a binding and sorting device for printing books, comprising an operating table, a support platform fixedly connected to one side of the operating table, a conveying mechanism connected inside the support platform, a backing component connected to the side of the operating table away from the support platform, a U-shaped frame fixedly connected to the upper surface of the operating table, an outer box fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the operating table, a plurality of through holes being provided through the U-shaped frame and the upper surface of the operating table, a hydraulic rod fixedly connected to the upper surface of the U-shaped frame, the output end of the hydraulic rod passing through the U-shaped frame and fixedly connected to a connecting plate, and a series of holes fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate.

[0013] Furthermore, both sides of the discharge port are provided with a misalignment port and a limiting port. The two misalignment ports are connected to the two limiting ports respectively. The two sides of the partition located inside the discharge cavity are fixedly connected with limiting blocks. The limiting blocks are slidably connected to the connected misalignment ports and limiting ports.

[0014] Furthermore, an elastic cloth is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the upper plate, and the lower end of the elastic cloth is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lower plate located inside the material discharge cavity.

The threaded rod is threadedly connected to the fixed plate.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This type of bookbinding and sorting device, through the cooperation of the separating components and partitions, can separate the lower plate and the upper plate when the collection box is full by controlling the No. 1 electromagnet, temporarily storing the waste in the elastic cloth area between the two. At the same time, the partition blocks the material discharge port to prevent the waste from scattering. This means that there is no need to stop the machine when cleaning the collection box. Only the upper and lower plates need to be separated to temporarily store the waste, which significantly reduces the production interruption caused by waste cleaning and improves the overall production efficiency. 2. This type of bookbinding and finishing device has a displacement sensor at the bottom of the lower plate that monitors the height of waste in the collection box in real time. When the threshold is reached, an audible and visual alarm is triggered. In addition, an electronic counter records the number of perforations simultaneously, providing double protection to prevent waste from overflowing. 3. This type of bookbinding and sorting device uses a hydraulic rod to drive the lifting power of the perforating needle. Through the connecting plate, No. 2 electromagnet, No. 2 ordinary magnet and other components, the lifting plate and the separating component move synchronously. It can realize the switching of waste channel without the need for an additional power source, simplifying the device structure, reducing equipment cost and energy consumption, and improving operational stability. 4. In this type of bookbinding and finishing device, the elastic cloth between the upper and lower plates is retractable to prevent waste from entering the mechanical gap, and the accordion plate in the limiting port cooperates with the No. 4 ordinary magnet to prevent waste from clogging the limiting structure. 5. This type of bookbinding and finishing device uses the magnetic attraction / repulsion of a No. 1 electromagnet and a No. 1 ordinary magnet to control the partition switch, thereby achieving automatic sealing and opening of the material feeding port and reducing manual operation.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-14A bookbinding and finishing device for printing includes an operating table 1. A support platform 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the operating table 1. A conveying mechanism is connected inside the support platform 3. A backing component is connected to the side of the operating table 1 away from the support platform 3. A U-shaped frame 10 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the operating table 1. An outer box 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the operating table 1. A plurality of through holes 16 are provided through both the U-shaped frame 10 and the upper surface of the operating table 1. A hydraulic rod 11 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the U-shaped frame 10. The output end of the hydraulic rod 11 passes through the U-shaped frame 10 and is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 26. A plurality of through holes are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 26 and are slidably connected to the plurality of through holes 16. Auxiliary rods 12 are fixedly connected to the upper surfaces of both ends of the needle 15 and the connecting plate 26. The upper ends of the two auxiliary rods 12 extend through to the top of the U-shaped frame 10, and the auxiliary rods 12 are slidably connected to the U-shaped frame 10. A backing plate 27 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the U-shaped frame 10. Several connecting ports 43 are opened through the surface of the backing plate 27. Several lifting ports 24 are opened at the upper rear side of the outer box 2. The inner side of the outer box 2 has a material dropping chamber 32 that communicates with several lifting ports 24. One end of the connecting plate 26 extends through several connecting ports 43 and is connected to several connecting components. The other end of several connecting components extends through several lifting ports 24 and reaches the inside of the material dropping chamber 32 and is connected to a separating component.

[0024] It should be noted that the operating table 1, U-shaped frame 10, hydraulic rod 11, auxiliary rod 12, connecting plate 26, perforating needle 15, and perforation hole 16 are all mature technologies in existing binding and finishing processes, such as the P460 binding machine produced by Yishen Office Supplies Co., Ltd. In addition, the perforating needle 15 can be detached from the U-shaped frame 10 or the number of perforating needles 15 can be increased. In this invention, only the disclosed structure is partially improved. Structures not mentioned, such as the adjustment of the number of perforating needles 15, are not modified in any way and retain their original functions and effects.

[0025] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the connecting assembly includes a lifting plate 14, a U-shaped frame 21, a second electromagnet 22, a T-shaped block 38, and a second ordinary magnet 39. A plurality of T-shaped slots 30 are provided on one side of the U-shaped frame 10. One side of the upper end of the lifting plate 14 is fixedly connected to the T-shaped block 38. The T-shaped block 38 is slidably connected to the U-shaped frame 10. The lower end of the lifting plate 14 passes through the lifting port 24 and is connected to the partition assembly located in the material discharge chamber 32. The middle part of the lifting plate 14 away from the U-shaped frame 10 is fixedly connected to the side of the U-shaped frame 21. The outer wall of the second electromagnet 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 21 away from the lifting plate 14. The second ordinary magnet 39 is slidably connected to the U-shaped frame 21 through a non-detachable sliding groove slider. The two ends of the second ordinary magnet 39 face the second electromagnet 22 and the connecting plate 26, respectively.

[0026] More specifically, by setting up a connecting component, the hydraulic rod 11 can drive several perforating needles 15 to rise and fall, so that the power used when perforating printed books can be applied to the separating component. Thus, without the need for an additional power source, the separating component located inside the material discharge chamber 32 of the outer box 2 can be moved together.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the separating component includes an upper plate 34, a lower plate 35 and a plurality of No. 3 ordinary magnets 33, the plurality of No. 3 ordinary magnets 33 being fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lower plate 35 and the bottom surface of the upper plate 34 respectively, and the No. 3 ordinary magnets 33 on the bottom surface of the upper plate 34 and the No. 3 ordinary magnets 33 on the upper surface of the lower plate 35 attract each other.

[0028] More specifically, by setting up a separator, the waste can be accurately guided to the bottom of the outer box 2 during the initial waste collection. When it is necessary to process the waste inside the outer box 2, the upper plate 34 and the lower plate 35 can be separated to create a temporary space for collecting waste, which does not affect the subsequent waste collection and is convenient and quick.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an insertion port 25 is provided through one side of the upper end of the outer box 2, which is connected to both the lifting port 24 and the material discharge chamber 32. A partition 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the insertion port 25. A plurality of No. 1 electromagnets 20 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the partition 19 at one end of the outer box 2. A plurality of No. 1 ordinary magnets 23 are fixedly connected to the side of the outer box 2 near the insertion port 25. The plurality of No. 1 electromagnets 20 are respectively aligned with the plurality of No. 1 ordinary magnets 23. A material discharge port 45 is provided through one side of the lower plate 35 near the partition 19, which is aligned with the position of the through hole 16. The end of the partition 19 located inside the material discharge chamber 32 is slidably connected to the material discharge port 45.

[0030] More specifically, by setting up components such as partition 19, electromagnet 20, and ordinary magnet 23, when it is necessary to clean the waste inside the outer box 2, the electromagnet 20 can be activated in conjunction with the ordinary magnet 23 to push partition 19 into the material discharge chamber 32 of the outer box 2, thereby blocking the material discharge port 45 of the lower plate 35, thus preventing waste from falling below the lower plate 35 during cleaning.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an outer plate 36 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper plate 34, and a plurality of dropping columns 37, which are respectively connected to a plurality of through holes 16, are fixedly connected to the top surface of the dropping cavity 32. The outer plate 36 is sleeved and slidably connected to the outside of the plurality of dropping columns 37. The plurality of dropping columns 37 are also connected to the dropping port 45. The outer plate 36 and the dropping port 45 are aligned vertically. A No. 5 ordinary magnet 49 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the outer plate 36. The No. 5 ordinary magnet 49 is attracted to the dropping cavity 32.

[0032] More specifically, by setting up components such as the outer plate 36, the discharge column 37, and the No. 5 ordinary magnet 49, the upper plate 34 can be stably attracted to the top of the discharge chamber 32 when there is no need to clean up the waste, thus preventing the upper plate 34, lower plate 35, and other components from falling off.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the discharge port 45 is provided with a misalignment port 42 and a limiting port 46 on both sides. The two misalignment ports 42 are respectively connected to the two limiting ports 46. The partition plate 19 is located inside the discharge cavity 32 and the two sides are fixedly connected to the limiting blocks 40. The limiting blocks 40 are slidably connected to the connected misalignment ports 42 and limiting ports 46.

[0034] More specifically, by setting the misalignment port 42, the limit block 40 and the limit port 46, the material discharge port 45 of the lower plate 35 can be blocked without affecting the descent of the lower plate 35. Furthermore, after blocking the material discharge port 45, the upper plate 34 and the lower plate 35 can be separated to prevent them from separating.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an elastic cloth 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the upper plate 34. The lower end of the elastic cloth 41 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lower plate 35 located inside the material discharge cavity 32. The inner walls of the two limiting ports 46 away from the misalignment port 42 are fixedly connected to accordion plates 44. The other ends of the two accordion plates 44 are fixedly connected to No. 4 ordinary magnets 48. The two No. 4 ordinary magnets 48 are respectively aligned with the two limiting blocks 40, and the two limiting blocks 40 are both magnetic metals.

[0036] More specifically, by setting the elastic cloth 41, the part between the partition 19 and the lower plate 35 (a part of the discharge port 45 is aligned with the perforation hole 16, and the other part of the discharge port 45 has the partition 19 inside) can be blocked. This not only prevents the waste falling from the perforation hole 16 from being blocked and accurately slides down to the lower part of the outer box 2 for collection, but also blocks the lifting port 24 of the outer box 2, so that the inside of the outer box 2 cannot be directly seen from the outside, making the overall appearance more aesthetically pleasing. In addition, by setting up the bellows plate 44 and the No. 4 ordinary magnet 48, when the upper plate 34 and the lower plate 35 are not separated (i.e. during normal material feeding), the limit port 46 can be blocked by the bellows plate 44 to prevent waste from falling into the limit port 46 and causing blockage.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a storage cavity 28 is provided inside the lower end of the outer box 2. The storage cavity 28 is located directly below the material discharge cavity 32, and a collection box 18 for collecting waste is slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity 28. A buckle plate for pulling the collection box 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the collection box 18. Two boxes 17 for closing the storage cavity 28 are hinged to the rear side of the outer box 2. Several displacement sensors 47 are fixedly connected at equal intervals inside the lower plate 35. The detection ends of the displacement sensors 47 all face the collection box 18.

[0038] More specifically, by setting up the collection box 18, the waste falling from the perforation hole 16 and the discharge port 45 can be collected in a unified manner. When cleaning later, you only need to take out the collection box 18, which is convenient and quick. In addition, by setting a displacement sensor 47, the waste collected inside the collection box 18 can be collected in real time, and a prompt will be given when the set value is reached, so as to facilitate cleaning. It should be noted that the displacement sensor 47 is a mature existing technology. In this invention, any model currently available on the market that can achieve the above purpose can be used, and there is no specific limitation.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a display screen 29 and an audible and visual alarm 13 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the U-shaped frame 10, and an electronic counter 31 that works in conjunction with the display screen 29 and the audible and visual alarm 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one of the connection ports 43.

[0040] More specifically, by setting up an electronic counter 31, a display screen 29, and an audible and visual alarm 13, the electronic counter 31 can automatically count the number of times the piercing needle 15 pierces the hole and display the result on the display screen 29 in a timely manner. After the set number of times is reached, the first electromagnet 20 is automatically activated, and the audible and visual alarm 13 issues a prompt. This can be combined with the displacement sensor 47 to achieve dual protection, clean the collection box 18 in a timely manner, and avoid excessive waste causing blockage. It should be noted that the electronic counter 31, the display screen 29, and the audible and visual alarm 13 are all existing mature technologies. In this invention, any model currently available on the market that can achieve the above objectives can be used, and no specific limitation is made.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the conveying mechanism includes a conveying motor 4, a conveying belt 5 and two conveying rollers 6. The outer wall of the conveying motor 4 is fixedly connected to the side wall of one end of the support platform 3. The output end of the conveying motor 4 is fixedly connected to one end of one of the conveying rollers 6. The two conveying rollers 6 are located at both ends of the support platform 3, and the two ends of the two conveying rollers 6 are rotatably connected to the two support platforms 3 respectively. The conveying belt 5 is sleeved on the outside of the two conveying rollers 6.

[0042] More specifically, by setting up a conveying mechanism, the printed books after automatic punching can be conveyed to the next process (such as threading, stacking, etc., which are existing technologies and are not closely related to this invention, so they will not be described in detail here).

[0043] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the abutment component includes a fixed plate 7, a threaded rod 8 and a movable plate 9. One end of the fixed plate 7 is fixedly connected to the side of the U-shaped frame 10 away from the conveyor belt 5. One end of the threaded rod 8 passes through the fixed plate 7 and is rotatably connected to the movable plate 9. The threaded rod 8 is threadedly connected to the fixed plate 7.

[0044] More specifically, by setting up the abutment component, when punching holes in printed books, one side of a stack of paper sheets can be placed against the moving plate 9, and the other side of the stack of paper sheets against the backing plate 27, which can restrict the position of the paper sheets, thereby enabling the hydraulic rod 11 and the punching needle 15 to perform punching.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 14 As shown, the bookbinding and finishing device of the present invention can be used in accordance with the following steps: The operator only needs to manually (or with the help of other external machinery and equipment) smooth out a stack of paper sheets that need to be bound and sorted for printed books (hereinafter referred to as paper stack) to ensure that the surface of the paper stack is flat. Then, the front side of the paper stack (the side away from the operator) is placed against the backing plate 27, and then the right side of the paper stack is placed against the moving plate 9. This ensures that the position of the punched hole in the paper stack is aligned with several punching needles 15 and punching holes 16. Then the hydraulic rod 11 is activated. After the hydraulic rod 11 is activated, its output end extends outward. The hydraulic rod 11, together with the two auxiliary rods 12, pushes the connecting plate 26 located in the U-shaped frame 10 to slide at the connection port 43 of the plate 27. This ensures that several perforating needles 15 are vertically downward. Thus, during the downward process, all the previously placed paper stacks can be pressed out of the perforation at once. At the same time, the electronic counter 31 counts automatically and displays "1" on the display screen 29. Afterwards, the hydraulic rod 11 is reset, and then the operator places the perforated stack of paper onto the left conveyor belt 5. When the hydraulic rod 11 is started again, the conveyor motor 4 starts at the same time. While the hydraulic rod 11 perforates the next stack of paper, the conveyor belt 5 is driven by the conveyor roller 6 to lower the first stack of paper to the next process (of course, the conveyor motor 4 can also keep running at all times, which is not limited here, but is only used as an example). While the hydraulic rod 11 pierces the paper stack, the small round pieces of paper left after piercing (hereinafter referred to as waste) will pass through the piercing hole 16 on the operating table 1 and enter into several dropping columns 37 located on the bottom surface of the operating table 1. Then, they will pass through the bottom of the outer plate 36 and the dropping port 45 of the lower plate 35 from below the dropping columns 37 and fall into the collection box 18 of the storage cavity 28. The waste debris falling into the collection box 18 will be detected by the displacement sensor 47 located at the bottom of the lower plate 35. As the hydraulic rod 11 runs more and more, the waste debris inside the collection box 18 will also pile up higher and higher until the displacement sensor 47 detects that the waste debris has reached the set value (this set value can be preset by the PLC controller, which is existing technology and will not be described in detail here). Then, the sound and light alarm 13 will issue an sound and light alarm. In addition, because the displacement sensor 47 may experience delays or misjudgments during long-term operation, the operator can pre-set the number of alarms. If the electronic counter 31 detects a certain number of times (such as 100 times, and the number will be displayed in real time on the display screen 29), the audible and visual alarm 13 will also issue an audible and visual alarm, thus achieving dual protection. At the same time as the sound and light alarm 13 sounds, the second electromagnet 22 changes its magnetic pole. After the magnetic pole of the second electromagnet 22 changes, it will push the second ordinary magnet 39, which was originally attracted in the loop frame 21, towards the U-shaped frame 10 (this needs to be done when the hydraulic rod 11 is not activated, because whether the paper stack is placed manually or by automated equipment, there will be a certain pause during the paper stack placement, such as a few seconds, but this is enough for the second electromagnet 22 to work). When the second ordinary magnet 39 moves from the loop frame 21 under the action of the second electromagnet 22 [because the second ordinary magnet 39 slides in the loop frame 21 in a non-detachable manner through a slider groove (this is existing technology, for example, the common method is through a T-shaped slider groove, the structure of which is the same as that of T-shaped block 38 and T-shaped groove 30, which can ensure sliding without falling off. Since the structure is the same, it is not shown in detail in the figure), there is no need to worry about the second ordinary magnet 39 falling off]. At this time, the second ordinary magnet 39 will be exactly located on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 26 at the end that passes through the connecting port 43 and abuts against it. At this time, during the process of the hydraulic rod 11 pushing the connecting plate 26 to descend, it will push the second ordinary magnet 39, the lifting plate 14, the loop frame 21 and the second electromagnet 22 together to slide down through the T-block 38 and the T-slot 30, and then bring down the upper plate 34 located at the other end of the lifting plate 14 and inside the material dropping chamber 32. After the upper plate 34 descends, the lower plate 35, which is attracted to the upper plate 34 by the third ordinary magnet 33, will also descend together. At this time, the outer plate 36 located on the upper surface of the upper plate 34 will also slide down the surface of the dropping column 37, and the fifth ordinary magnet 49 on the upper surface of the outer plate 36 will detach from the dropping cavity 32. After the lower plate 35 descends, the material drop port 45 of the lower plate 35 will be stuck on the outside of the partition plate 19. At the same time, the two limiting blocks 40 at both ends of the partition plate 19 will be located at the misalignment port 42, and the limiting blocks 40 and the limiting port 46 will be at the same height. When the hydraulic rod 11 is ready to retract, the first electromagnet 20 will instantly change its magnetic pole. After the magnetic poles of electromagnet 20 change, the repulsion between it and ordinary magnet 23 will change to attraction. Since the position of ordinary magnet 23 is fixed, electromagnet 20 will slide along with partition 19 toward ordinary magnet 23, thereby completely inserting partition 19 into the discharge port 45 and completely blocking the discharge port 45 (a certain degree of gap is allowed, the purpose of which is to prevent subsequent waste from falling into the collection box 18, not to require a complete seal). At the same time that the partition 19 is inserted into the material discharge port 45, the two limiting blocks 40 of the partition 19 will also compress the No. 4 ordinary magnet 48 and the bellows plate 44 located in the limiting port 46 from the misalignment port 42 and then insert into the limiting port 46. At this time, as the hydraulic rod 11 rises, the lifting plate 14 lifts the upper plate 34, while the lower plate 35 will be passively separated from the upper plate 34 due to the restriction of the limiting block 40. Afterwards, the upper plate 34 continues to rise, and the outer plate 36 will once again be placed on the outside of the material drop column 37. The upper plate 34 will also be attracted to the top of the material drop chamber 32 again by the No. 5 ordinary magnet 49. When the hydraulic rod 11 rises to the top, the magnetic pole of the No. 2 electromagnet 22 changes again. Then the No. 2 electromagnet 22 generates a force to attract the No. 2 ordinary magnet 39, which pulls the No. 2 ordinary magnet 39 back into the loop frame 21 and the lifting plate 14. This will not affect the normal drilling of the subsequent piercing needle 15. In addition, after the upper plate 34 rises, since the lower plate 35 does not move with it, the elastic cloth 41 located on the bottom surface of the upper plate 34 is stretched within the elastic capacity of the operation, which can prevent the subsequent falling debris from accumulating on the partition 19, so that the debris can only accumulate in the space between the upper plate 34 and the lower plate 35. During the separation of the upper plate 34 and the lower plate 35, after hearing the alarm (because the first operator is working on the paper stack perforation, the second operator can only do cleaning work, and if multiple devices are running in the factory at the same time, the second operator can clean in a cycle, which is not limited here), the second operator comes to the back of the outer box 2 and opens the two boxes 17 of the storage cavity 28 (the opening degree of a single box 17 is 90°-180°). Then the second operator pulls out the collection box 18 from the storage cavity 28 through the buckle below the collection box 18, then pours out the waste collected inside the collection box 18 all at once, and then inserts the collection box 18 back into the storage cavity 28. After that, the second operator manually changes the magnetic pole of the first electromagnet 20. At this time, the first electromagnet 20 will repel the first ordinary magnet 23, and thus can move the partition 19 towards the outside of the outer box 2. During the movement, the limiting block 40 will be pulled out from the limiting port 46, and the fourth ordinary magnet 48 located in the limiting port 46 will be attracted by the limiting block 40 and will stretch the accordion plate 44 to the top again to block the limiting port 46. At this time, the lower plate 35 will slide down naturally due to the lack of support. The second operator only needs to manually support the lower plate 35 while changing the magnetic pole of the first electromagnet 20. Then, pour the waste temporarily piled on the lower plate 35 into the collection box 18, and then push the lower plate 35 up along the material discharge chamber 32 so that the lower plate 35 can be attracted to the upper plate 34 again by the third ordinary magnet 33. It should be noted that because there is at least a few seconds between the two operations of the hydraulic rod 11, this interval is sufficient to attract the lower plate 35 and the upper plate 34 together. Even if the hydraulic rod 11 has already run once while the upper plate 34 is being pushed up, the debris from that one operation will not have a significant impact on the attraction between the lower plate 35 and the upper plate 34, because the accumulated debris will be dumped again during the next operation.
