A threaded groove 103 is provided, a threaded rod 104 is screwed inside the threaded groove 103, a second vertical rod 105 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded rod 104 extending out of the threaded groove 103, a top plate 106 is fixedly connected to the top of the second vertical rod 105, and a plurality of concave blocks 107 are fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate 101 and the bottom of the top plate 106; a cylinder 108 is fixed to the top of the softening box 1, and a lifting plate 109 is provided inside the softening box 1, the top rod of the cylinder 108 passes through the softening box 1 and is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting plate 109, and a plurality of first plug blocks 110 are fixed to the bottom of the lifting plate 109, and the first plug blocks 110 are inserted into the first slot 111 opened at the top of the top plate 106.
[0022] By means of the above technical solution, a plurality of bamboo materials are placed between the bottom plate 101 and the top plate 106 in advance, and the two ends of the bamboo materials are inserted into the two concave blocks 107. The first vertical rod 102 is rotated, and the distance between the first vertical rod 102 and the second vertical rod 105 can be adjusted by screwing the threaded rod 104 and the threaded groove 103, thereby adjusting the distance between the bottom plate 101 and the top plate 106. In this way, the bamboo materials can be fixed between the bottom plate 101 and the top plate 106, and by adjusting the distance between the bottom plate 101 and the top plate 106, bamboo materials of different lengths can be fixed between the bottom plate 101 and the top plate 106. Then, the bottom plate 101 and the top plate 106 are placed inside the softening box 1, and the top rod of the cylinder 108 drives the bamboo materials to move upward and downward.

By utilizing a steam component commonly used in the prior art for producing steam, steam is provided to the interior of the softening box 1 through the softening air outlet window in the softening box, thereby achieving steam softening of the bamboo materials. After the softening is completed, the restriction of the first plug block 110 on the top plate 106 is released, and the plurality of bamboo materials can be directly taken out of the softening box 1 without having to take the bamboo materials out of the softening box 1 one by one, making the placement and collection of the plurality of bamboo materials more convenient, saving time and effort, and thus improving the softening efficiency of the bamboo materials.

A connecting rod 116 is fixedly connected inside the rotating groove 114 and at the top of the rotating plate 115. The connecting rod 116 extends from the top of the bottom plate 101 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first vertical rod 102. When the first vertical rod 102 rotates, it drives the connecting rod 116 and the rotating plate 115 to rotate, so that the rotating plate 115 rotates in the rotating groove 114, and then the first vertical rod 102 rotates normally on the top of the bottom plate 101.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 Two supporting blocks 117 symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides are fixed to the outside of the softening box 1. An air pump 118 is provided on the top of the supporting block 117. The top of the air pump 118 is connected to a first air pump 119. One side of the first air pump 119 is connected to several second air pumps 120. The other end of the second air pump 120 extends to the inside of the softening box 1. The bottom of the air pump 118 is connected to a ventilation pipe 121. The bottom side of the ventilation pipe 121 is connected to a shunt pipe 122.

The generator 302 is electrically connected to the backup power supply 303 through a wire.
[0026] Through the above technical solution, after the bamboo is softened, the vacuum pump 118 extracts the excess hot air in the softening box 1 through the second vacuum pipe 120 and the first vacuum pipe 119 into the ventilation pipe 121, and the hot air enters the steam turbine 301 through the diverter pipe 122 at the bottom of the ventilation pipe 121 and drives the steam turbine 301 to rotate. The steam turbine 301 drives the generator 302 on one side to generate electricity, so that the electricity generated by the generator 302 enters the backup power supply 303 and is stored. In this way, the excess hot air in the softening box 1 can be recycled and utilized, and the heat energy is converted into electrical energy and stored. The backup power supply 303 and the electrically driven structure in the softening box 1 are electrically connected through wires to provide power for the normal operation of the softening box 1, thereby avoiding waste of hot air.

The push rod of the cylinder 108 drives the lifting plate 109 and the first plug block 110 to move downward, so that the first plug block 110 is inserted into the first slot 111 provided on the top plate 106, thereby fixing the top plate 106 in the softening box 1, and then a plurality of bamboos can be put into the softening box 1 at one time. By utilizing the steam component commonly used in the prior art for producing steam, steam is provided to the inside of the softening box 1 through the softening air outlet window in the softening box, thereby achieving steam softening of the bamboo.
