[0022] The support device includes a second drive cylinder 18, a support platform 19 and two groups of parallel arranged support legs 20, one end of the support leg 20 is hinged to the pulley 4, and the other end of the support leg 20 is hinged to the support platform 19.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 4The clamping pliers includes a U-shaped opening frame 9, two symmetrically arranged rotating shafts 10 rotatably mounted on the U-shaped opening frame 9, a clamping jaw 11 fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 10, a synchronous and different-direction transmission rod and a driving assembly for driving one set of clamping jaws 11 to open and close. The synchronous and different-direction transmission rod includes two driving handles 12 and a connecting rod 13. The two driving handles 12 are respectively fixedly mounted on the two rotating shafts 10, and the two ends of the connecting rod 13 are respectively hinged to the central axis of the two driving handles 12 away from the rotating shaft 10; the driving assembly includes an outer support frame 14 fixedly connected to the U-shaped opening frame 9, and a hinged mounting on the outer support frame 14. The drive plate 15, the tension spring 16 and the drive rod 17, one end of the drive rod 17 is hinged to the drive plate 15, the other end of the drive rod 17 is hinged to the corresponding clamping claw 11, and the drive plate 15 is elastically connected to the outer support frame 14 through the tension spring 16; further, the hinged connection between the connecting rod 13 and the two driving handles 12 is located on both sides of the horizontal end surface where the central axis of the two rotating shafts 10 is located; one end of the tension spring 16 is hinged to the outer support frame 14, and the other end of the tension spring 16 is hinged to the drive plate 15; through the synchronous and unequal transmission rods, the two clamping claws 11 rotate synchronously in opposite directions to achieve synchronous clamping of the roller sleeve 2.

[0024] The end of the mandrel 1 is placed within the semicircular support portion of the support frame 6. By tightening the locking screw 8, the end of the mandrel 1 is clamped between the support frame 6 and the mounting frame 7, thereby achieving a fixed position for the end of the mandrel 1. The roller sleeve 2 enters through the opening of the U-shaped opening frame 9 and is located between the two clamping jaws 11. Under the action of the tension spring 16, the drive plate 15 drives the drive rod 17 to move, thereby tightly clamping the clamping jaws 11 to the outer diameter of the roller sleeve 2. When the pulley 4 moves away from the support and clamping mechanism, the clamping jaws 11 tightly engage with the roller sleeve 2. When the pulley 4 moves toward the support and clamping mechanism, the clamping jaws 11 disengage from the roller sleeve 2. This allows the roller sleeve 2 to be quickly withdrawn from the mandrel 1, improving roll changing efficiency.
