Of course, in other embodiments, the carrying and conveying platform 20 can also be an assembly line in the form of a belt or a plate chain. In the working state, the driving linear module drives the carrying and receiving element to move to the station of the glove forming equipment, receives the formed gloves, and then reverses the action to transport them to the bottom of the feed port of the first folding mechanism 30. Specifically, in this embodiment, the gloves are TPE gloves, which are folded multiple times into a square shape by the first folding mechanism 30 and the pressure folding mechanism, and then pushed into the tape packaging mechanism 40 for packaging and forming. Of course, in other embodiments, the gloves can also be structures such as film gloves.

[0027] The first folding mechanism 30 is used to fold the gloves for the first, third, fourth and fifth times, so that the gloves become a square shape for subsequent packaging. The first folding mechanism 30 in this example is prior art and is well known to those skilled in the art, so it will not be described in detail.

[0028] Please combine Figure 2 As shown, the swing clamping folding mechanism includes a folding slide 1, a first driving source 2, a folding push plate 3, and a clamping component 4.

Specifically: after the clamping component 4 is pressed against the folding push plate 3, the first driving source 2 drives the folding push plate 3 to move along the folding slide 1 to the other end to complete the folding.

[0029] Based on the above embodiment, the first driving source 2 is a synchronous belt module, and the folding push plate 3 is detachably mounted on the output end of the synchronous belt module; the synchronous belt module is mounted on the folding slide 1 through a profile mounting seat; sensors are provided for the start and end positions of the synchronous belt module. They are used to sense the moving state of the synchronous belt module. Of course, in other embodiments, the first driving source 2 can also be a cylinder type or an electric type or other reciprocating linear moving mechanical structure, which is not specifically limited here.

[0030] Based on the above embodiment, the folding push plate 3 includes a connecting block 31 fixed on the first driving source 2; a push plate pad 32 is detachably provided on one side of the connecting block 31; and a push plate 33 is adjustably mounted on the push plate pad 32.

[0031] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, a positioning shoulder is provided at the connection between the push plate pad 32 and the push plate 33, which is used to provide positioning for the installation of the push plate pad 32 to ensure that the overall force on the contact surface is uniform during clamping; an array of U-shaped clearance grooves is provided on the push plate 33; a clamping portion is provided on one side of the U-shaped clearance groove to extend outward, which is used to ensure that each clamping of the package is in an effective state and improve the folding stability.

Of course, in other embodiments, the clamping power source 41 can also be a cylinder type or an electric type or other reciprocating rotating mechanical structure, which is not specifically limited here.

[0033] During operation, when the glove enters the feeding port of the folding slide, the first driving source drives the folding push plate to hold one side of the glove, and then the clamping power source on the clamping component operates at the same time, driving the pressing plate to swing toward the folding push plate and then press it, and finally, driven by the first driving source, it slides from the entrance of the folding slide to the other end to exit, and the folding of the glove is completed. The whole process is convenient and fast to operate, with low cost, and the glove is always tightly clamped when pushing and folding, effectively avoiding the problems caused by gravity and smooth surface.

[0034] Based on the above embodiment, the pressing plate 42 is provided with an array of Ω grooves on one side close to the clamping portion.
