The first sliding frame 413 is arranged on the first sliding rail 412. The first sliding driving member 411 is drivingly connected with the first sliding frame 413. The first clamping assembly 42 includes two groups of first mounting frames 421, a first clamping driving member 422, and first clamping blocks 423, which are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the outer barrel 7. The two first mounting frames 421 are arranged on the first sliding frame 413. The two first clamping driving members 422 are arranged on the corresponding first mounting frames 421, respectively. The two first clamping blocks 423 are slidingly arranged on the corresponding first mounting frames 421, respectively. The first clamping driving member 422 is drivingly connected with the first clamping blocks 423. When the two first clamping driving members 422 are started, the two first clamping blocks 423 are driven to approach each other to clamp the outer barrel 7 or to move away from each other to release the outer barrel 7. When the first clamping driving member 422 is not started or temporarily runs, the position of the first clamping block 423 is positioned so that the two first clamping blocks 423 remain in the clamping state or the non-clamping state.

[0049] Specifically, when the first clamping assembly 42 clamps the outer barrel 7, the two first clamping driving members 422 are started to drive the two first clamping blocks 423 to move towards each other in the clamping direction. After the two first clamping blocks 423 clamp the outer barrel 7, the clamping driving member 232 is started to drive the clamping jaw 233 to move and release the outer barrel 7. Then, the first sliding driving member 411 is started to drive the outer barrel 7 to move towards the conveying belt 312, so as to carry the outer barrel 7 from the second position 112 to the support assembly 32.

[0050] In order to reduce the possibility of collision between the outer barrel 7 and the first clamping blocks 423 during upward conveying of the conveying trolley 212, or the possibility of collision between the outer barrel 7 and the conveying belt 312 during carrying of the outer barrel 7 from the second position 112 to the conveying belt 312, the first lifting assembly 43 is arranged on the first sliding frame 413. Specifically, the first lifting assembly 43 comprises a first lifting cylinder 432 and a first lifting sliding rail 431. The first lifting sliding rail 431 is arranged on the first sliding frame 413, and the first lifting cylinder 432 is arranged on the first sliding frame 413. The first mounting frame 421 is arranged on the first lifting sliding rail 431, and the first lifting cylinder 432 is drivingly connected with the first mounting frame 421. During clamping or releasing of the outer barrel 7 by the two first clamping blocks 423, the first lifting cylinder 432 is started to drive the first mounting frame 421 to slide downwards along the direction of the first lifting sliding rail 431, so that the two first clamping blocks 423 move to the second position 112 to clamp the outer barrel 7 or move close to the conveying belt 312 to release the outer barrel 7. The height of the first clamping blocks 423 is adjusted by lifting and lowering the first clamping blocks 423 by the first lifting cylinder 432 and the first lifting sliding rail 431, so as to reduce the possibility of collision between the outer barrel 7 and the first clamping blocks 423 during upward movement of the conveying trolley 212, and reduce the possibility of collision between the outer barrel 7 and the conveying belt 312 during sliding of the outer barrel 7 towards the conveying belt 312 by the first sliding driving member 411. In addition, when the first lifting cylinder 432 drives the outer barrel 7 to move upwards, the lower end surface of the outer barrel 7 is higher than the upper end surface of the blocking block 323, so as to avoid the possibility of collision between the outer barrel 7 and the blocking block 323. When the outer barrel 7 is covered on the four blocking blocks 323, the first lifting cylinder 432 and the first lifting sliding rail 431 drive the outer barrel 7 to move downwards, so that the lower end surface of the outer barrel 7 approaches the upper surfaces of the first support frame 321 and the second support frame 322, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the outer barrel 7 caused by direct downward falling of the outer barrel 7.

[0051] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the first lifting cylinder 432 is arranged on the first sliding frame 413, and the first lifting sliding rail 431 is arranged on the first mounting frame 421.

The second lifting assembly 52 comprises a second lifting cylinder 522 and a second lifting rail 521, both of which are arranged on the second sliding frame 513. The second clamping assembly 53 comprises two groups of second mounting frames 531 arranged symmetrically along the central axis of the outer cylinder 7, a second clamping drive 532 and a second clamping block 533, the second mounting frame 531 is connected with the second sliding frame 513 through the second lifting rail 521, the second lifting cylinder 522 is drivingly connected with the second mounting frame 531, the second clamping drive 532 is arranged on the second mounting frame 531, and the second clamping block 533 is slidingly arranged on the second mounting frame 531. When it is needed to carry the outer cylinder 7 away from the conveying belt 312 at the end of the conveying belt 312 away from the second position 112, the second sliding drive 511 is started to drive the second clamping block 533 to move, so that the two second clamping blocks 533 are located above the outer cylinder 7 to be carried away, then the second lifting cylinder 522 is started to drive the two second clamping blocks 533 to move downward to the two sides of the outer cylinder 7, and then the two second clamping blocks 533 are driven by the two second clamping drives 532 to move close to each other to clamp the outer cylinder 7. After the outer cylinder 7 is clamped, the second lifting cylinder 522 is started to drive the two second clamping blocks 533 and the outer cylinder 7 to move upward to separate from the four blocking blocks 323, so as to reduce the possibility of being blocked by the blocking blocks 323 during the process of carrying the outer cylinder 7 away from the conveying belt 312.

[0052] As shown, Figure 8 The inner cylinder conveying device 6 comprises a conveying frame 61, a conveying member 62 and a placing plate 63.

During the conveying of the inner cylinder, the inner cylinder is placed on the placing plate 63, and the conveying member 62 is started to drive the inner cylinder to convey on the conveying frame 61, so as to facilitate the conveying of the inner cylinder. The inner cylinder is placed on the placing plate 63, and the cylinder opening of the inner cylinder is completely placed on the placing plate 63, so as to reduce the possibility of the side edge of the inner cylinder separating from the placing plate 63. The inner cylinder assumes a posture with the cylinder opening downward on the placing plate 63, so as to facilitate the outer cylinder 7 to be sleeved on the inner cylinder from top to bottom. During the sleeving of the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder 7, the position of the inner cylinder shaft can be observed through the sleeving hole on the outer cylinder 7, so as to avoid the possibility that the sleeving hole and the inner cylinder shaft are blocked to affect the sleeving efficiency.
