Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the feeding device comprises a base 1, a shaping plate 2 and a track 3. The lower end of the base 1 is connected to the track 3 and can move along the track 3. The upper end of the base 1 is in a rectangular structure, the length direction of the base 1 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the track 3, and the width direction of the base 1 is parallel to the extension direction of the track 3. The upper surface of the base 1 is provided with a connecting groove 11 for inserting the shaping plate 2, the base 1 is slidably provided with a positioning block 4, the lower end side wall of the shaping plate 2 is provided with a positioning groove 21 for inserting the positioning block 4, and the base 1 is further provided with an elastic piece 5 for driving the positioning block 4 to insert into the positioning groove 21 and an unlocking assembly 6 for driving the positioning block 4 to slide out of the positioning groove 21.

[0033] When different socks need to be shaped, the positioning block 4 is first driven by the unlocking assembly 6 to slide out of the positioning groove 21, so as to unlock the shaping plate 2, then the shaping plate 2 is pulled out upward, and then a new shaping plate 2 is inserted for replacement, the positioning block 4 is driven by the elastic piece 5 to insert into the positioning groove 21, so as to quickly fix the new shaping plate 2. It should be noted that different shaping plates 2 mainly differ in the size and shape of the upper end for adapting to socks, and the lower end part is provided with the same structure to facilitate replacement and use. Preferably, in order to facilitate the insertion of the shaping plate 2 into the connecting groove 11, the upper end of the connecting groove 11 is provided in an upward flared shape.

[0034] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the embodiment of the present application, the positioning blocks 4 are arranged as rectangular blocks, and preferably, the positioning blocks 4 are arranged at both ends of the base 1 along the extending direction of the vertical rail 3, and two positioning grooves 21 are arranged at both ends of the shaping plate 2 correspondingly. A sliding groove for the positioning blocks 4 to slide is arranged in the base 1, and the sliding groove is connected with the connecting groove 11. The elastic member 5 is a spring 51, and two springs 51 are arranged correspondingly for the two positioning blocks 4. Specifically, one end of the spring 51 is connected with the bottom wall of the sliding groove away from the connecting groove 11, and the other end is connected with the side wall of the positioning block 4. When the positioning block 4 is accommodated in the sliding groove, the spring 51 is in a compressed state. Once the shaping plate 2 is inserted into the connecting groove 11, the spring 51 will release energy rapidly to push the positioning block 4 into the positioning groove 21 to realize automatic locking. The unlocking assembly 6 can control the positioning block 4 to slide into the sliding groove completely to realize the function of unlocking.

[0035] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the embodiment of the present application, in order to prevent the positioning block 4 from sliding out of the sliding groove excessively, a limiting block 41 is arranged on the side wall of the positioning block 4. The limiting block 41 can also be arranged as a rectangular block, and a limiting groove 13 for the limiting block 41 to slide is arranged in the base 1 at a corresponding position, and the extending direction of the limiting groove 13 is parallel to the sliding groove. The limiting block 41 provides physical resistance when the positioning block 4 moves to the limit position to avoid the positioning block 4 from coming out of the sliding groove. It should be noted that when the positioning block 4 and the limiting block 41 and other structures are installed, the base 1 can be divided into two halves, i.e., left half and right half, and the internal structures are installed first, and then the two halves are assembled by welding or other methods. Further, the upper surfaces of the two positioning blocks 4 are both provided with guide inclined surfaces. When the lower end of the shaping plate 2 is inserted into the connecting groove 11, the shaping plate 2 can abut on the guide inclined surfaces and push the positioning block 4 to slide into the sliding groove. The design of the guide inclined surfaces makes the insertion process of the shaping plate 2 more smooth, and no other operation is needed, and the insertion and automatic locking can be realized by cooperating with the spring 51.

[0036] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3The unlocking assembly 6 comprises a control rod 61, a connecting rod 62 and a pressing head 63.

The connecting rod 62 is connected between the limiting block 41 and the control rod 61, and the end of the control rod 61 away from the connecting rod 62 is arranged out of the side wall of the base 1 and connected with the pressing head 63. When the worker presses the pressing head 63, the control rod 61 drives the positioning block 4 to slide along the sliding groove away from the connecting groove 11, so that the positioning block 4 is separated from the positioning groove 21, and the quick unlocking of the shaping plate 2 is realized. Preferably, a containing groove 12 for inserting the pressing head 63 can be further arranged on the outer side wall of the base 1, and the pressing head 63 can be partially inserted into the containing groove 12. When the pressing head 63 is pressed to abut against the bottom wall of the containing groove 12, the positioning block 4 connected with the pressing head 63 is just slid into the sliding groove.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, the unlocking assembly 6 can be composed of two groups of control rods 61, connecting rods 62 and pressing heads 63. When unlocking the shaping plate 2, two pressing heads 63 are pressed at the same time, so that two positioning blocks 4 are controlled to slide and unlock the shaping plate 2. In the embodiment of the application, in order to further simplify the operation and make it more convenient to unlock the shaping plate 2, the unlocking assembly 6 further comprises a first rod 64, a second rod 65 and a connecting gear 66. The control rod 61, the connecting rod 62 and the pressing head 63 are used to unlock the positioning block 4 away from the pressing head 63; and the first rod 64, the second rod 65 and the connecting gear 66 are used to synchronously unlock the positioning block 4 close to the pressing head 63.

[0038] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 Specifically, in the embodiment of the application, the lower surface of the positioning block 4 close to the pressing head 63 is connected with the first rod 64, and the lower surface of the first rod 64 is provided with first teeth.
