[0027] The limiting plates 11 are symmetrically installed on the top of the base plate 1. The drive motor 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the limiting plates 11. The transmission rods 13 are mirror-symmetrically installed between the left and right limiting plates 11 and are rotatably connected to the limiting plates 11. The connecting shaft 14 is fixed between the two transmission rods 13. The connecting rod 15 is rotatably connected to the transmission rods 13 and the insert plate 16. The insert plate 16 is slidably connected to the guide block 17.
[0028] Specifically, the base plate 1 can limit the position of the limiting plate 11. The limiting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the guide block 17, which can limit the position of the guide block 17. The drive motor 12 drives the transmission rod 13 to rotate. Since the connecting shaft 14 is located on the outer edge of the disc structure at the end of the transmission rod 13, when the transmission rod 13 rotates, the connecting shaft 14 will drive the insert plate 16 to slide inside the guide block 17 through the connecting rod 15. The movement direction of the insert plate 16 is limited by the guide block 17, so that the insert plate 16, driven by the connecting rod 15, makes up-and-down reciprocating motion to fold the fabric.

The L-shaped conveyor belt 21 rotates counterclockwise, the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 rotates clockwise, and the horizontal conveyor belt 27 rotates clockwise, thereby driving the fabric from below the horizontal conveyor belt 27 to the top of the U-shaped conveyor belt 24. After being folded on one side by the insert plate 16, the fabric is driven to the front of the U-shaped conveyor belt 24, and then moved to the front of the bottom L-shaped conveyor belt 21 by the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 and the front L-shaped conveyor belt 21. It is then folded a second time by the insert plate 16, and the insert plate 16 drives the fabric to the area between the top of the bottom L-shaped conveyor belt 21 and the U-shaped conveyor belt 24, where it is transported by the L-shaped conveyor belt 27. The belt 21 and the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 are conveyed backward to the top of the chute 36. The support frame 2 can limit the position of the bottom L-shaped conveyor belt 21. The distance between the bottom L-shaped conveyor belt 21 and the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 can be adjusted by the extension and retraction of the support piston 22. The connecting block 25 is mirror-symmetrically installed at both ends of the connecting piston 26. The connecting piston 26 is horizontally installed between the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 and the front L-shaped conveyor belt 21, and vertically installed between the front L-shaped conveyor belt 21 and the horizontal conveyor belt 27. The distance between the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 and the front L-shaped conveyor belt 21, and between the front L-shaped conveyor belt 21 and the horizontal conveyor belt 27 can be adjusted by the extension and retraction of the connecting piston 26 to accommodate fabrics of different thicknesses.

The fabric is heated by the steam, and after being heated, the fabric will pass between the pressure rollers 35 and be pressed, thereby preventing the fabric from unfolding after folding.
[0035] In use, the distance between the bottom L-shaped conveyor belt 21 and the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 is adjusted by extending and retracting the support piston 22. The connecting blocks 25 are mirror-symmetrically installed at both ends of the connecting piston 26. The connecting piston 26 is horizontally installed between the U-shaped conveyor belt 24 and the front L-shaped conveyor belt 21, and vertically installed between the front L-shaped conveyor belt 21 and the horizontal conveyor belt 27.
