When the lifting belt is hoisted for a long time, the severely worn lifting belt will break, causing the ton bag to fall. If the operating personnel are operating on the opening of the ton bag at this time, the falling ton bag will press on the operator's arm, causing personal injury. Summary of the Utility Model
