Next, the first upper support plate 19 and the second upper support plate 20 of the upper support mechanism are controlled to be close to each other, and support the edge of the second plastic shell at the bottom. Then, the first lower support plate 30 and the second lower support plate 31 of the lower support mechanism are controlled again to move away from each other, and the last plastic shell falls on the feeding slide 2 through the unloading channel 17, and is pushed to the target position by the feeding mechanism and fits the positioning frame 3 to achieve accurate positioning of the plastic shell and ensure that the plastic shell is fed into place.
