The lifting driving member 25 is installed on the frame 21 and is connected to the guide plate 24 to drive its liftable sliding. Four guide shafts 26 are fixed to the bottom of the guide plate 24. The pressing plate 27 is slidably sleeved on the four guide shafts 26 and is located above the punching bottom die 22, and the bottom ends of the four guide shafts 26 support the pressing plate 27. The elastic member 28 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide shaft 26 and its two ends abut between the pressing plate 27 and the guide plate 24. The punching knife 29 is fixed to the bottom of the guide plate 24, and punching holes corresponding to the punching knife 29 are opened on both the punching bottom die 22 and the pressing plate 27 for the punching knife 29 to pass through so as to punch the metal plate pressed by the pressing plate 27 on the punching bottom die 22. The discharging conveying device 3 is used to convey the punched metal plate out.

[0027] When the feeding conveying device 1 carries the metal plate into the punching position of the punching mechanism 2, the feeding conveying device 1 stops to prepare for punching one end of the metal plate; the lifting driving member 25 drives the guide plate 24 to descend along the guide columns 23, driving the punching knife 29 and the pressing plate 27 to descend; when the pressing plate 27 contacts the punching bottom die 22, the elastic member 28 is compressed, and the punching knife 29 continues to descend along the punching hole of the pressing plate 27 to the metal plate on the punching bottom die 22 to achieve punching. The lifting driving member 25 drives the guide plate 24 to ascend along the guide columns 23, so that the pressing plate 27 is separated from the metal plate; the feeding conveying device 1 and the discharging conveying device 3 are started to continue conveying. When the other end of the metal plate is fed into the punching position of the punching mechanism 2, the feeding conveying device 1 and the discharging conveying device 3 stop, and the lifting driving member 25 presses down so that the punching knife 29 punches the other end of the metal plate. Then, the discharging conveying device 3 conveys the punched metal plate out.
