[0002] When bamboo is being processed from feeding to fine planing, bamboo strips need to be placed one by one into the fine planer. Due to the differences in length, thickness, and curvature between different bamboo strips, existing feeding equipment is prone to misaligning the bamboo strips with the exit guide groove when dealing with bamboo strips that are too curved, which prevents the bamboo strips from being conveyed properly and causes the feeding equipment to malfunction. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding mechanism that can smoothly feed bamboo strips with different curvatures into the outlet guide groove, reduce equipment failure rate, and thus improve bamboo strip feeding efficiency.

[0030] The guiding assembly 5 includes an outlet guide 501 located at the discharge end of the lifting assembly 3 for limiting the material posture and guiding the material; a movable guide cover 502 located on the outlet guide 501; a swing mechanism 503 located below the outlet guide 501 for providing power to the swing plate 504; a swing plate 504 movably connected to the outlet guide 501 for straightening the material; a pressing mechanism 505 located on the outlet guide 501 for limiting the material posture; and a detection sensor 506 located at the feed end of the outlet guide 501 for detecting the material.

[0031] The specific implementation method is as follows: The lifting mechanism 302 is composed of a power-providing element and an elastic telescopic element. The elastic telescopic element can be a spring, a gas spring, or an elastic telescopic material, so that the feeding wheel 304 provided on the lifting mechanism 302 can extend and retract up and down within a certain range in the vertical direction.

[0032] The specific implementation method is as follows: the outlet guide groove 501 is a trumpet-shaped guide groove, the swing plate 504 is a trapezoidal guide plate, and the pressing mechanism 505 is composed of a trapezoidal pressing plate and a spring.

[0033] The specific implementation method is as follows: the feeding mechanism further includes a material unloading component 4 disposed below the conveying component 2 and located on both sides of the lifting component 3.

[0034] The unloading assembly 4 includes a first unloading mechanism 401, a first unloading guide rail 402, a first unloading guide groove 403, a second unloading mechanism 404, a second unloading guide rail 405, and a second unloading guide groove 406.

[0035] The specific implementation method is as follows: the first unloading guide groove 403 is a rectangular guide groove with a certain height boss at both ends. The left side of the guide groove is provided with a certain angle slope. The second unloading guide groove 406 is a trapezoidal guide groove with a certain height boss at both ends.

[0039] S2: The lifting mechanism 302 drives the feeding wheel 304 to lift upward along the lifting guide rail 303, lifting the bamboo strip at the front end of the blocking mechanism 301 to the conveying wheel 203;

[0040] S3: Motor 201 drives conveyor wheel 203 to rotate via chain 202, which feeds the bamboo strip between conveyor wheel 203 and feeding wheel 304 to outlet guide chute 501;

[0041] S4: The swing mechanism 503 drives the swing plate 504 to swing. If the bamboo strip is too curved, the tail of the bamboo strip is lifted by the swing plate 504, so that it can smoothly enter the outlet guide groove 501.
