In this way, the two groups of fixing seats 24 are driven to displace by the synchronous belt 14 driven to rotate reversely by the servo motor 13, so that the two groups of movable clamp assemblies 2 fold to the middle or open to the two sides.

[0027] In actual application, the synchronous belt 14 is wound on the driving wheel 16 and the transmission wheel 17, and is arranged in two rows, as shown in Figure 1 One row of the synchronous belt 14 is fixed with one group of the fixing seats 24, and the other row of the synchronous belt 14 is fixed with the other group of the fixing seats 24, so that when the synchronous belt 14 is driven to rotate reversely by the servo motor 13, the two rows of the synchronous belt 14 respectively drive the two groups of the fixing seats 24 to fold to the middle or open to the two sides.

[0032] Further, the two ends of the frame 1 are symmetrically provided with limit seats 15, which are correspondingly provided with the sliding seats 21. In this way, the maximum stroke of the sliding seat 21 when being opened can be achieved, and the sliding seat 21 can be prevented from being pulled out.

[0033] Further, the fixed seats 24 are obliquely arranged, the higher end of each fixed seat 24 is hingedly connected to the lower end of the clamping plate 25 through a hinge, and the lower end of each fixed seat 24 is formed with a sliding hole 29.

That is, the connection between the clamping plate 25 and the fixed seat 24 is the product folding line. After the product is folded, the two groups of fixed seats 24 are opened to the two sides, the product is located in the middle of the material roller 18, and is conveyed to the wrapping machine under the drive of the material roller 18, so that the feeding is more accurate.

[0039] Further, the rack 1 is provided with a gravity sensor and a controller. In this way, the gravity sensor can be used to sense whether the product is fed. When the product is fed, the gravity sensor feeds back to the controller after sensing, the controller controls the servo motor 13 to start working. When the servo motor 13 drives the two groups of movable clamping assemblies 2 to be folded to the middle to the set position, the product is located in the middle of the two groups of movable clamping assemblies 2, and the two side margins of the product are arranged at a certain position on the clamping plate 25. The servo motor 13 stops working, and then the cylinder 26 starts working to push the clamping plate 25 to fold the two side margins of the product, so that the two side margins of the product are straight. After the folding, the cylinder 26 drives the clamping plate 25 to reset and loosen the product. The servo motor 13 drives the two groups of movable clamping assemblies 2 to reset and open to the two sides. The product is located in the middle of the material roller 18, and is accurately conveyed to the wrapping machine for wrapping. The two ends of the wrapped product are neat, the phenomenon that the product and the sleeve film protrude irregularly is solved, and the product is packed and shipped.
