After the hot pressing is completed and the interior trim panel is taken away, the remaining covering layer 9 is wound up by the winding frame 8, and a new covering layer 9 to be hot pressed is added to the lower die base 3 at the same time. There is no need to manually feed the covering layer 9. During hot pressing, the covering layer 9 of a specified size is automatically cut off by the shear force between the die bases. There is no need to cut the covering layer 9 material in advance, which saves time and effort and improves the hot pressing efficiency.

[0023] When the lower die base 3 and the upper die base 4 are hot-pressed together, the cutting edge 11 applies extrusion shearing force to the covering layer 9, and the covering layer 9 used for hot pressing is cut off by the shearing force and hot-pressed together with the frame.

[0024] Among them, the preheating frame 5 includes an electric cylinder 12 and a preheating box 13. The electric cylinder 12 includes a push rod. The push rod of the electric cylinder 12 is fixed to the preheating box 13. When preheating, the electric cylinder 12 drives the preheating box 13 to move the preheating box 13 between the lower mold base 3 and the upper mold base 4. The covering layer 9 and the skeleton are preheated by the preheating box 13.
