In order to further improve the stability of the up and down movement of the pressure plate 200, two screw rods 310 are symmetrically arranged about the axial direction of the pressure plate 200.

[0052] Furthermore, a first tooth portion 321 is provided on the nut 320, and the first tooth portions 321 on the two nuts 320 are transmission connected. Specifically, the two first tooth portions 321 are connected by a transmission chain, so that when one nut 320 rotates, it can drive the other nut 320 to rotate, thereby realizing the synchronous up and down movement of the two screw rods 310.

[0053] In certain specific embodiments, such as Figure 3 and 5As shown, the first driving device 300 also includes a mounting seat 330 and a motor 340, wherein the motor 340 is arranged on the mounting seat 330, specifically, the motor 340 is vertically arranged, and the nut 320 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 330 through a bearing. Further, one of the nuts 320 is provided with a second tooth portion 322, and the second tooth portion 322 is transmission-connected to the motor 340.

[0059] First, the staff sets the first position on the control system according to the height of the material.

[0060] Secondly, the control system will control the motor 340 to drive the second tooth portion 322 to rotate so that the corresponding nut 320 rotates. Since the first tooth portion 321 on the nut 320 is connected with the first tooth portion 321 on the other nut 320 through a transmission chain, the two nuts 320 can rotate synchronously, so that the two screw rods 310 synchronously drive the connecting seat 500 to move downward, so that the pressure plate 200 moves downward to the first position. At this time, a gap is formed between the pressure plate 200 and the material to facilitate the material to flow into the turning area.

[0061] Further, the material flows from the previous process onto the conveyor belt 130 , and the conveyor belt 130 conveys the material to the turning area.

[0062] Further, the second driving device 400, ie, the cylinder, will drive the pressing plate 200 to move downward to compact the material.

[0063] Furthermore, the turntable 120 will rotate along the axial direction to drive the balls 131 on the conveyor belt 130 to rotate, so that the balls 131 drive the materials and the pressing plate 200 to rotate, thereby turning the materials.

[0064] Finally, the turntable 120 stops rotating, the second driving device 400 drives the pressing plate 200 to move upward to the first position, and the conveyor belt 130 conveys the material to the subsequent process.
