[0002] Books are a medium for recording information in the form of text or images. They are usually composed of a cover and many pages bound together. They are a tool for disseminating knowledge and have the functions of preserving human cultural heritage, developing information resources, and participating in social education. Compared with e-books, books can also protect the eyesight of young people. In order to reduce the cost of books and record more content, most of the inner pages of books are made of thinner paper materials. When people flip through and preserve them, it is very easy to cause problems such as curling of books.

The height of the spring 51 is not less than the depth of the groove, and the height of the support member 53 is the same as the depth of the groove. The tiling plate 52 is connected to the groove by the spring 51, and because a support member with the same depth as the groove is set at one end of the tiling plate 52, the end of the tiling plate 52 away from the center of the pressing plate 42 will tilt downward due to the gravity of the support member 53. When the pressing plate 42 is down During pressing, the downwardly tilted end of the flat plate 52 is in contact with the book. When the pressing plate 42 continues to press downward, the flat plate 52 gradually tends to be horizontal. At this time, the downwardly tilted end generates a forward thrust to flatten the curled edge of the book, and the height of the support 53 is the same as the depth of the groove. Therefore, when the flat plate 52 presses the book horizontally, the downward pressure of the pressing plate 42 can be transmitted to the book to achieve the effect of flattening the book. In addition, the flat plate 52 is in contact with the spring 51, and the height of the spring 51 is not less than the depth of the groove. Therefore, when the pressing plate 42 contacts the book and presses downward, the force between the book and the flat plate 52 is transmitted to the spring 51, and the spring 51 is compressed. The spring 51 generates a reaction force, which provides a certain buffer while strengthening the support for the flat plate 52.

[0037] In one embodiment, the pressing plate 42 is a rectangular structure. Since the curling and folding problems of books mostly occur at the corners, the grooves and the elastic flattening components 5 are arranged at least at the two corners opposite to the spine side to better achieve the effect of flattening the curled edges.

[0038] In one embodiment, a heating device 5 is provided on the bottom surface of the pressure device 4 and the surface of the third bracket 3.
