[0060] When the bagged SBS additive is filled into the feed hopper 2 of the elevator body 1, the forklift directly places the stacked bagged SBS additive on the storage plate 35, and then starts the telescopic member 32. The output end of the telescopic member 32 drives the supporting plate 34 to move upward through the connecting plate 331, so that the stacked bagged SBS additive is aligned with the feed port of the feed hopper 2. The bagged SBS additive is manually unpacked and gradually poured into the feed hopper 2. The motor 363 is started, and the motor 363 drives the transmission shaft 361 to rotate in the supporting plate 34. At the same time, the slider 362 drives the storage plate 35 to move horizontally on the supporting plate 34, so that the unopened bagged SBS additive moves to the feed port position of the feed hopper 2. The material is manually filled, the insert plate 41 is moved in the vertical direction of the outer wall of the threaded pin 42, and the position of the insert plate 41 on the threaded pin 42 is fixed with the nut 43, so that the insert plate 41 blocks the discharge port of the feed hopper 2, and the blocking area of ​​the insert plate 41 on the discharge port of the feed hopper 2 is changed to control the feeding speed of the SBS additive into the elevator body 1. According to the use requirements, the cross bar 211 is rotated in the feed hopper 2, and the cross bar 211 drives the guide plate 212 to have an inclination angle with the feed hopper 2.
