The push mechanism 7 is located below the base 3 and includes a drive component 10 and a rotating component 11. The drive end of the drive component 10 is connected to the rotating component 11. The lid 2 is hinged to the base 3 via a hinge made of wear-resistant ABS material, ensuring a stable connection and allowing the lid 2 to open and close from 0-120° for easy opening and closing by children. A rigid partition 21 at the center of the inner wall of the base 3 divides the base 3 into upper and lower functional areas. A paper slot 4 is specifically provided above the partition 21, which can hold a stack of standard-sized cards 6. The paper tray has protrusions on both sides to effectively prevent the cards 6 from tipping over during movement. The paper outlet tray 5 is opened on the side of the bottom box 3, corresponding to the position of the paper tray 4. When the cards 6 are neatly stacked in the paper tray 4, the bottom card 6 will naturally make contact with the bottom pushing mechanism 7, preparing for subsequent automatic paper feeding. The sealing plate 8 is made of high-strength engineering plastic injection molding, with a rod vertically set on each of the four sides of the top, matching the pre-set insertion holes on the inner wall of the placement cavity 22 of the bottom box 3. The space between the four sets of rods can just accommodate the drive component 10. This design not only allows the pushing mechanism 7 to be installed stably, but also has a detachable function. When it is necessary to replace the battery or perform simple maintenance, the entire mechanism can be easily removed by separating the rods.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the drive assembly 10 includes a positioning shell 12, a motor 13, a first gear set 14, and a second gear set 15. The motor 13 is connected through the side of the positioning shell 12, and the drive end of the motor 13 is located inside the positioning shell 12. The drive end of the motor 13 is meshed with the first gear set 14, and the side of the first gear set 14 is meshed with the second gear set 15. The drive assembly 10 of the push mechanism 7 is the power core of the push mechanism 7. The first gear set 14 is composed of gears with different numbers of teeth. The initial power transmission and speed adjustment are realized through the meshing between the gears. Its side meshes with the second gear set 15, which is composed of gears. Both the first gear set 14 and the second gear set 15 are movably connected to the positioning shell 12 to realize the connection between the first gear set 14 and the second gear set 15.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the rotating assembly 11 includes a docking gear 16, a first conveying wheel 17, a docking rod 18, and a second conveying wheel 19. The docking rod 18 is fixedly connected to the center of the docking gear 16. The first conveying wheel 17 and the second conveying wheel 19 are respectively mounted on the outer diameter surface of the docking rod 18. A rotating ring 20 is mounted on the end of the docking rod 18 away from the docking gear 16. The rotating assembly 11 is responsible for converting power into conveying action. Its core is the docking gear 16, which meshes with the output end of the second gear set 15. At the center of the docking gear 16, the first conveying wheel 17 and the second conveying wheel 19 are respectively mounted on the docking rod 18 via the docking rod 18. The outer layer of the two conveying wheels is covered with a layer of silicone material, and the surface is covered with fine anti-slip textures, which can generate sufficient friction to move the card 6 during rotation. A rotating ring 20 is also mounted on the end of the docking rod 18 away from the docking gear 16, which cooperates with the groove on the inner wall of the base box 3 to ensure stable operation of the entire rotating assembly 11.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the second gear set 15 and the docking gear 16 are meshed together. When the motor 13 is driven, the driving end of the motor 13 drives the first gear set 14 to rotate, the first gear set 14 drives the second gear set 15 to rotate, and the second gear set 15 drives the docking gear 16 to rotate, causing the first conveying wheel 17 and the second conveying wheel 19 on the docking rod 18 to rotate. When the drive assembly 10 is working, the driving end of the motor 13 drives the first gear set 14 to start rotating. Through the meshing transmission between the gears, the first gear set 14 transmits power to the second gear set 15, and the second gear set 15 then drives the docking gear 16 to rotate synchronously, thereby causing the first conveying wheel 17 and the second conveying wheel 19 on the docking rod 18 to rotate at the same speed. The clamping force formed by the two conveying wheels can just drive the card 6 to move smoothly along the paper output slot 5. The entire conveying process is smooth and uniform, avoiding the card 6 from getting stuck or skewed.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, a bottom box 3 is movably connected to the bottom of the cover 2 via a hinge. An isolation plate 21 is fixedly connected to the center of the inner wall of the bottom box 3. A paper slot 4 is reserved above the isolation plate 21 in the bottom box 3. A paper outlet slot 5 is provided on the side of the bottom box 3. A card 6 is placed above the paper slot 4. When the drive component 10 drives the rotating component 11 to rotate, it drives the card 6 on the paper slot 4 to move along the paper outlet slot 5. The bottom box 3 has a placement cavity 22 below the isolation plate 21 that perfectly matches the size of the push mechanism 7. A layer of sound-absorbing cotton is pasted on the inner wall of the cavity, which can effectively reduce the noise when the push mechanism 7 is running. After the push mechanism 7 is placed in this cavity, it is connected to the bottom box 3 through the rod, which makes it convenient for parents to clean and maintain.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom box 3 has a placement cavity 22 located below the partition plate 21.
