[0043] S3, the flat slot notch of the transversely inserted fin 4 is placed upward, the knife plate 31 is inserted into the flat slot to limit the flat slot, and the fin 4 is prevented from being dislocated. As more and more fins 4 are fed, the raised comb tooth baffles 211 in the baffle component 2 are gradually moved backward under the action of the second driving mechanism 22 to release space for the fin 4 to enter, and to protect the end fin 4 from falling.

[0044] S4, another comb tooth baffle 211 in the baffle component 2 extends from the through slot 111 on the first table 11 under the action of the third driving member 212, the second driving mechanism 22 drives another comb tooth baffle 211 to move and gradually approach the inserted fin 4, and one comb tooth baffle 211 and another comb tooth baffle 211 respectively block the fin 4 from both ends in the first direction, so as to prevent the fin 4 from falling.

[0045] S5, one comb tooth baffle 211 and another comb tooth baffle 211 in the baffle component 2 can be moved to the middle of the fin 4 under the action of the second driving mechanism 22, so that the distance between all fins 4 is reduced, and the operations of S3, S4 and S5 are circularly performed until the stored fins 4 reach a predetermined number.

[0046] S6, one comb tooth baffle 211 and another comb tooth baffle 211 in the baffle assembly 2 are driven by the second driving mechanism 22 to move at the same speed to drive the fins 4 between the adjacent comb tooth baffles 211 to move.

[0047] S7, the flat tube can be inserted into the groove of the fin 4 from the gap between the adjacent knife plates 31 to pre-fix the fin 4 or to press the flat tube.

[0048] The above applies a specific example to explain the principle and implementation mode of the application. The above example is only used to help understand the method and its core idea.
