Both chains of the second chain machine are vertically connected to one chain of the first chain machine, and the two vertical connection points form two converging turning angles, which are respectively located on both sides of the second chain machine. The first chain machine fence and the second chain machine fence at the converging turning angle both include a first fence. Each first fence includes a first flat plate and two parallel second flat plates. The first flat plate and the two second flat plates form a groove, and the opening of the groove faces the corresponding chain machine; an installation shaft is provided between the two second flat plates, and a steering wheel is sleeved outside the installation shaft. The steering wheels of adjacent installation shafts are not at the same height, and the steering wheels of two installation shafts with one installation shaft in between are at the same height.

Therefore, when adjusting the support feet, it is necessary to disassemble and separate the support feet from the installation bracket and then reinstall them. Such an adjustment method inevitably requires realigning and checking the relative positions of the support feet during the installation process, making the whole process more cumbersome and unable to meet the actual needs.
