[0028] The folding surface assembly 24 includes a folding plate 401, and a limiting shaft 402 is installed on the inner side of the folding plate 401.

[0029] By installing folding surface component 1 3 and folding surface component 2 4 on the device, the cotton towel placed on it can be folded in a coordinated manner through the working effect of folding surface component 1 3 and folding surface component 2 4 when using the device, so as to carry out the subsequent packaging work better and more efficiently.

[0030] The workbench assembly 1 includes a control body 101. A cavity 102 is opened inside the front side of the control body 101. A cavity 2 105 is opened on the adjacent side of the cavity 102. A partition 104 is installed between the cavity 102 and the cavity 2 105. Limiting grooves 103 are opened on both sides of the cavity 102 and the cavity 2 105.

Folding panel assembly 4 is then installed in the limiting groove 103, completing the overall assembly. A cotton towel is then placed on the panel. The rotating motor 302 drives a rotating rod 303 on one side to rotate. During rotation, the rotating rod 303 drives a transmission gear 305 via a drive gear 304 at its end, further driving the adjacent central transmission device 306 to rotate. The central transmission device 306 then... The rotation of 06 enables the adjacent transmission device 307 and side plate braking assembly 308 to work together, thus achieving the effect of linked braking and improving folding efficiency. The transmission device 307 drives the end-linked braking shaft 309 to rotate, which in turn causes the panel on which the cotton towel is placed to flip to the steam outlet plate 205. Then, the rotating transmission device 3081 drives the brake shaft 3083 through the linked wheel 3082, which in turn drives the limit rods 403 on both sides to rotate. The limit rods 403 are installed on the folding plate 401, which allows the folding plate 401 to flip, realizing the folding of both sides. Finally, the cotton towel folded on the disinfection plate assembly 2 will be disinfected by the high-temperature disinfection gas sprayed by the disinfection spray 203 through the steam outlet plate 205, so that it can be used after leaving the factory.
