[0026] Further, the chain hook 5 and the lower presser 2 are fixed on the work platform 1 by bolts.

[0027] Further, the lower die 3 is fixed on the work platform 1 by bolts, and the upper end of the lower die 3 is V-shaped.

[0028] Further, the presser 2 includes a bottom plate 21, a guard plate 22, an upper cover 23, a ratchet gear 24, a bearing 25, a threaded sleeve 27, a middle plate 28, a screw rod 29, a pressure plate 210, a pressure hook 211, a ratchet buckle 213, a spring 214 and a lever 215; a guard plate 22 is arranged around the upper end of the bottom plate 21; an upper cover 23 is arranged at the upper end of the guard plate 22; a ratchet gear 24 is arranged in the middle of the upper cover 23; ratchet buckles 213 are arranged on both the front and rear sides of the right side of the ratchet gear 24, and the ratchet buckle 213 and the ratchet gear 24 are used in coordination; a spring 214 is arranged on the outer side of the ratchet buckle 213; a lever 215 is arranged in the middle of the two ratchet buckles 213, and the lever 215 and the two ratchet buckles 213 are used in coordination;

[0029] A bearing 25 is arranged in the middle of the ratchet gear 24; a nut 26 is arranged at the upper end of the bearing 25; the bottom end of the bearing 25 extends downward through the upper cover 23; a threaded sleeve 27 is arranged on the bearing 25; a middle plate 28 is arranged at the bottom end of the threaded sleeve 27, and both sides of the middle plate 28 are fixed on the guard plates 22 on both sides; a screw rod 29 is arranged at the bottom end of the middle plate 28, and the screw rod 29 passes through the middle plate 28 and is arranged in the threaded sleeve 27; a pressure plate 210 is arranged at the bottom end of the screw rod 29, and the left side of the pressure plate 210 passes through the left guard plate 22; a pressure hook 211 is arranged on the left side of the bottom end of the pressure plate 210.
