[0032] The closed unit 200 includes a support plate 201 arranged on the upper side of the feed port 103, and the upper surface of the support plate 201 is fixedly connected to an annular plate 202, the lower surface of the annular plate 202 is slidably connected to a cover plate 203, and the side of the cover plate 203 facing away from the support plate 201 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 204, the surface of the fixed plate 204 is fixedly connected to two groups of support seats 205, and the upper end of the support seat 205 is rotatably connected to a handle 206, the inside of the handle 206 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 207, and the middle part of the rotating rod 207 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 208, the other end of the connecting rod 208 is fixedly connected to a clamping rod 209, and the clamping rod 209 is clamped and connected to two groups of clamping seats 210 on the surface of one side of the connecting rod 208, the two groups of clamping seats 210 are both fixedly connected to the annular plate 202, and a locking assembly 212 is provided on one side of the connecting rod 208.

[0033] Among them, both sides of the fixed plate 204 are fixedly connected with the sliding rod 213, one side of the support plate 201 is fixedly connected with the limiting shell 214, and both sides of the inner wall of the limiting shell 214 are provided with limiting grooves 215, and the inner wall surfaces of the two sets of limiting grooves 215 are slidingly connected with the sliding rod 213. When the cover plate 203 slides out from the surface of the feed port 103, the sliding rod 213 will be slidingly connected with the limiting groove 215, and the fixed plate 204 fixedly connected with the sliding rod 213 can limit the cover plate 203.

[0034] Furthermore, the upper surface of the fixed plate 204 is fixedly connected to a support block 211, and the upper surface of the support block 211 is movably connected to the lower surface of the handle 206. The support block 211 limits the downward flipping angle of the handle 206, so that when the handle 206 locks the cover plate 203, the handle 206 and the connecting rod 208 are in a horizontal state.

[0035] Furthermore, the locking assembly 212 includes a fixed seat 212a fixedly connected to the support block 211, and a slide groove is provided inside the fixed seat 212a, a telescopic rod 212c is slidably connected inside the slide groove, and one end of the telescopic rod 212c is fixedly connected to a spring 212b, the other end of the spring 212b is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove, and the lower side of the other end of the telescopic rod 212c is movably connected to the upper surface of the handle 206, and the elastic force of the spring 212b pushes the telescopic rod 212c to move outward, so that the telescopic rod 212c can fit the handle 206, thereby locking the position of the handle 206.

[0036] Furthermore, a guide block 212d is fixedly connected to the upper side of the other end of the telescopic rod 212c, and the guide block 212d is designed to be inclined.

[0037] Furthermore, the support plate 201 is semicircular in design, and the cover plate 203 is circular in design with the same inner diameter as the support plate 201. When the cover plate 203 fits tightly against the support plate 201, the cover plate 203 can seal and close the feed port 103, and at the same time, pushing the cover plate 203 has a limiting function.

[0038] During use, the cover plate 203 is pushed to move the cover plate 203 to the upper surface of the feed port 103, and the cover plate 203 is tightly fitted with the support plate 201, and then the clamping rod 209 is placed on one side surface of the clamping seat 210, and then the handle 206 is manually pulled downward through the rotation connection between the handle 206 and the support seat 205, and is tightly fitted with the support block 211, and the rotating rod 207 rotatably connected to the handle 206 drives the connecting rod 208 to move, so that the connecting rod 208 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 208.

[0039] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
