[0056] It can be understood that the worker can drive the die assembly 100 to move close to the squeezing block, so that the squeezing block is inserted into the groove 100d of the die assembly 100, so that the first die 110 and the second die 120 are moved away from each other under the internal support of the squeezing block.
