[0049] In this embodiment, a partition 3 is installed inside the storage box 2 and connected to a fixing plate 4, which is installed at one end of the partition 3. The partition 3 divides the space inside the storage box 2 into multiple independent areas for storing different types or quantities of polypropylene staple fiber materials. The fixing plate 4 ensures that the partition 3 is firmly fixed inside the storage box 2. Adjustment holes 5 are located inside the storage box 2. The multiple sets of adjustment holes 5 allow the user to adjust the flow rate or storage space of the materials inside the storage box 2 as needed. Each storage box 2 has a different capacity, and this design allows for the selection of a storage box 2 with an appropriate capacity according to different material requirements. For example, a larger storage box 2 can be used to store bulk materials, while a smaller storage box 2 is suitable for storing small quantities or materials with specific needs. When the position of the partition 3 needs to be adjusted, the sliding sleeve 13 slides along the guide groove 20 through the guide block 19 and stretches the tension spring 25. The sliding sleeve 13 pushes the push sleeve 14, and the push sleeve 14 abuts against multiple sets of abutting blocks 12 through the guide surface 16 and is guided to the outside of the push sleeve 14. The abutting block 12 pulls the locking block 10 outward through the sliding rod 9 and moves it out of the locking groove 11. At this time, the sliding rod 9 is in the relief groove 15. While the abutting block 12 moves outward, it stretches the return spring 18. Then, multiple sets of push springs 25 can be used to adjust the position of the partition 12. 1. Pushing the top ring 22 pushes the insert rod 8 out of the fixing sleeve 6 and the insertion hole 7, which releases the fixing plate 4 from the storage box 2. Then the position of the partition 3 can be moved. When it is necessary to fix the partition 3, insert the insert rod 8 into the adjustment hole 5 and the insertion hole 7, and then insert the fixing sleeve 6 and the insert rod 8. When the insert rod 8 abuts against the top ring 22, it squeezes the multiple sets of push springs 21. Then, the tension spring 25 pulls the sliding sleeve 13 to drive the push sleeve 14, releasing the abutment of the multiple sets of abutment blocks 12. The elastic reset of the multiple sets of return springs 18 pulls the abutment block 12 to push the sliding rod 9 and the locking block 10, so that the locking block 10 is locked in the slot 11, completing the fixation of the partition 3.

[0050] In summary, during the use or operation of the entire device: The partition 3 is installed inside the storage box 2 and connected to the fixing plate 4, which is installed at one end of the partition 3. The function of the partition 3 is to divide the space inside the storage box 2 into multiple independent areas for storing different types or quantities of polypropylene staple fiber materials. The fixing plate 4 ensures that the partition 3 is firmly fixed inside the storage box 2. Adjustment holes 5 are located inside the storage box 2. The multiple sets of adjustment holes 5 allow the user to adjust the flow rate or storage space of the material inside the storage box 2 as needed. Each storage box 2 has a different capacity, and this design allows for the selection of a storage box 2 with an appropriate capacity according to different material requirements. For example, a larger storage box 2 can be used to store bulk materials, while a smaller storage box 2 is suitable for storing small quantities or materials with specific needs. When the position of the partition 3 needs to be adjusted, the sliding sleeve 13 slides along the guide groove 20 through the guide block 19 and stretches the tension spring 25. The sliding sleeve 13 pushes the push sleeve 14, and the push sleeve 14 abuts against multiple sets of abutting blocks 12 through the guide surface 16 and is guided to the outside of the push sleeve 14. The abutting block 12 pulls the locking block 10 outward through the sliding rod 9 and moves it out of the locking groove 11. At this time, the sliding rod 9 is in the relief groove 15. While the abutting block 12 moves outward, it stretches the return spring 18. Then, multiple sets of push springs 25 can be used to adjust the position of the partition 12. 1. Pushing the top ring 22 pushes the insert rod 8 out of the fixing sleeve 6 and the insertion hole 7, which releases the fixing plate 4 from the storage box 2. Then the position of the partition 3 can be moved. When it is necessary to fix the partition 3, insert the insert rod 8 into the adjustment hole 5 and the insertion hole 7, and then insert the fixing sleeve 6 and the insert rod 8. When the insert rod 8 abuts against the top ring 22, it squeezes the multiple sets of push springs 21. Then, the tension spring 25 pulls the sliding sleeve 13 to drive the push sleeve 14, releasing the abutment of the multiple sets of abutment blocks 12. The elastic reset of the multiple sets of return springs 18 pulls the abutment block 12 to push the sliding rod 9 and the locking block 10, so that the locking block 10 is locked in the slot 11, completing the fixation of the partition 3.
