A connecting plate 510 is fixedly connected to the upper surfaces of the two limiting frames 509. A screw rod 511 is threadedly inserted into the lower surface of the support frame 505. The upper end of the screw rod 511 is slidably connected to the connecting plate 510. By operating the adjusting rod 504, the material box 3 can be conveniently fixed on the vibration plate 2 by using the positioning frame 501 and the limiting frame 509, without disassembling and assembling a plurality of screws, improving the working efficiency of replacing the material box 3. A plurality of positioning rods 502 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the vibration plate 2. The arc surfaces of the plurality of positioning rods 502 are slidably connected to the material box 3. The material box 3 is further limited by the positioning rods 502 to make the installation position of the material box 3 more accurate. A plurality of anti-slip protrusions 507 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the adjusting rod 504. The plurality of anti-slip protrusions 507 are evenly distributed on the adjusting rod 504.

[0032] In an embodiment of the present utility model, please refer toFigure 5 , the auxiliary structure 6 includes a fixing frame 61, the fixing frame 61 is fixedly connected to the machine body 1, an auxiliary rod 62 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 61, a spring 63 is sleeved on the arc surface of the auxiliary rod 62, and both ends of the spring 63 are fixedly connected to the fixing frame 61 and the auxiliary rod 62 respectively.

[0033] The working principle of a flexible loading machine provided by the present utility model is as follows: By setting the adjusting structure 5, first slide the material box 3 to be installed into the positioning frame 501 from top to bottom until the material box 3 abuts against the upper surface of the vibrating plate 2. Then move the connecting plate 510 towards the material box 3. The connecting plate 510 drives the two ends of the limiting frame 509 to move along the support rod 508 towards the material box 3. When the connecting plate 510 aligns with the screw rod 511, rotate the screw rod 511. The screw rod 511 moves upward along the support frame 505 by means of the thread until the screw rod 511 slides upward into the connecting plate 510 to fix the positions of the connecting plate 510 and the limiting frame 509. Then rotate the adjusting rod 504. The adjusting rod 504 drives the support frame 505 to move downward along the arc surface of the limiting rod 506 by means of the thread. The support frame 505 drives the limiting frame to move downward until the limiting frame tightly presses against the upper surface of the material box 3. Similarly, operate the adjusting rod 504 on the other fixing plate 503 to fix the material box 3 on the vibrating plate 2 by extrusion. Among them, the material box 3 is further limited by the positioning rod 502 to make the installation position of the material box 3 more accurate. The friction at the upper end of the adjusting rod 504 is increased by the anti-slip protrusion 507, which is convenient for the user to rotate the adjusting rod 504. The friction at the lower surface of the limiting frame 509 is increased by the anti-slip pad 512 to make the limiting effect of the limiting frame 509 on the material box 3 better.

[0034] By setting the auxiliary structure 6, first pull the auxiliary rod 62 in the direction away from the machine body 1. The auxiliary rod 62 drives the auxiliary plate 64 away from the machine body 1. During this process, the auxiliary plate 64 always slides along the round rod 65, and the spring 63 is in a compressed state. After the auxiliary plate 64 disengages from the round rod 65, rotate the auxiliary plate 64 upward along the auxiliary rod 62 to make the auxiliary plate 64 away from the wiring area. Then connect the connecting wire 4 to the machine body 1. After installing the connecting wire 4, rotate the auxiliary plate 64 downward so that the auxiliary plate 64 sleeves on the surface of the connecting wire 4, and make the end of the auxiliary plate 64 away from the auxiliary rod 62 align with the round rod 65. Gradually release the auxiliary plate 64. The spring 63 in the compressed state gives the auxiliary rod 62 a force to approach the machine body 1. The auxiliary rod 62 drives the auxiliary plate 64 to approach the machine body 1, and the round rod 65 slides into the auxiliary plate 64. Then the auxiliary plate 64 continues to approach the machine body 1 until the auxiliary plate 64 tightly abuts against the connecting wire 4 in the direction of approaching the machine body 1. Among them, the auxiliary rod 62 is driven to move by operating the pull ring 66, which is convenient for the user to move the pull ring 66. The end of the round rod 65 away from the machine body 1 is arc-shaped, which is convenient for the auxiliary plate 64 to slide and sleeve on the round rod 65.
