[0011] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0013] In some embodiments, please refer to the accompanying drawings.

The first and second pusher assemblies are symmetrically equipped with adjustable guide mechanisms 3 on their front and rear sides for guiding plates of different widths. In this utility model, the plate material is passed sequentially through the second pushing component and the first pushing component from the right side of the base 1, and the side of the plate material is limited by the adjustable guide mechanism 3; then the synchronous reverse drive component is activated, and the synchronous reverse drive component works to make the first pushing component and the second pushing component move synchronously in opposite directions. When the first and second pusher components move to the left, they can push the sheet material to move together; however, when the first and second pusher components move to the right, they will not push the sheet material. When the first pushing component moves to the right, the second pushing component moves to the left and pushes the plate to the left together, realizing alternating feeding of the plate and continuous feeding under the action of the synchronous reverse drive component; and by adjusting the horizontal position of the adjustable guide mechanism 3 on the front and rear sides of the first and second pushing components, the plates of different widths can be automatically aligned and fixed to prevent the plates from shifting during feeding, further improving the practicality of the device.

[0014] like Figure 4 As shown, the synchronous reverse drive assembly includes a vertical plate 26, a drive motor 27, a synchronous belt 28, a driven synchronous pulley 210, and a horizontal guide rail 211. The horizontal guide rail 211 is symmetrically fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the upper end of the base 1, and the vertical plate 26 is symmetrically fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the base 1. The drive motor 27 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the bottom of the base 1 through a support frame. The driving synchronous pulley 29 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the left vertical plate 26; the driven synchronous pulley 210 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the right vertical plate 26; a synchronous belt 28 is wound around the outer ends of the driving synchronous pulley 29 and the driven synchronous pulley 210, so that the two are connected in transmission. Furthermore, the output end of the drive motor 27 is fixedly connected to the active synchronous pulley 29 via a rotating shaft; The horizontal guide rail 211 and the synchronous belt 28 are connected to the first pusher assembly and the second pusher assembly; like Figure 5 As shown, both the first and second pushing components include a sliding plate 21, a slider 22, a fixed plate 23, a tension spring 24, and a push plate 25; the slider 22 of the first pushing component is symmetrically and slidably installed on the left side of the two front and rear horizontal guide rails 211; the slider 22 of the second pushing component is symmetrically and slidably installed on the right side of the two front and rear horizontal guide rails 211. The upper ends of the two sliders 22 are fixedly connected to the sliding plate 21; The fixed plate 23 is symmetrically fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the upper end and the front and rear sides of the middle part of the sliding plate 21; the push plate 25 is hinged to the fixed plate 23; one end of the tension spring 24 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 23; the other end of the tension spring 24 is fixedly connected to the push plate 25. The timing belt 28 on the lower side between the active timing belt pulley 29 and the driven timing belt pulley 210 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding plate 21 on the first pushing assembly; the timing belt 28 on the upper side between the active timing belt pulley 29 and the driven timing belt pulley 210 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding plate 21 on the second pushing assembly. like Figure 6As shown, the adjustable guide mechanism 3 includes guide wheels 31, a mounting plate 32, a lead screw 33, a guide rod 34, and a control knob 35. Multiple guide wheels 31 are rotatably mounted inside the mounting plate 32, and are linearly and evenly distributed within the mounting plate 32. One end of the lead screw 33 is threadedly connected to the lower end of the mounting plate 32, and the other end of the lead screw 33 is rotatably connected to the inner end of the sliding plate 21, while the outer end of the lead screw 33 is fixedly connected to the control knob 35. One end of the guide rod 34 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the sliding plate 21, and the other end of the guide rod 34 is slidably connected to the lower end of the mounting plate 32. The control knob 35 is rotatably mounted on the outer end of the sliding plate 21. In this utility model, the sheet material is passed from right to left through the second pusher assembly and the upper and lower pusher plates 25 of the first pusher assembly from the base 1. Then, the control knob 35 is rotated, which drives the lead screw 33 to rotate together, causing the mounting plate 32 with the guide wheel 31 to move horizontally along the guide rod 34 until the guide wheel 31 is in contact with and aligned with the front and rear ends of the plate. The drive motor 27 is started, and the drive motor 27 drives the active synchronous pulley 29 to rotate. The rotation of the active synchronous pulley 29 drives the synchronous belt 28 to rotate, and the synchronous belt 28 drives the driven synchronous pulley 210 to rotate synchronously with the active synchronous pulley 29. This also drives the sliding plates 21 of the second pusher assembly and the first pusher assembly to slide synchronously in the opposite direction along the horizontal guide rail 211 with the slider 22. When one sliding plate 21 moves to the left, the upper and lower push plates 25 of the sliding plate 21 rotate towards the plate under the friction of the plate surface, thus locking the plate and making the plate move synchronously with the sliding plate 21. At the same time, the other sliding plate 21 moves to the right. During the movement, the upper and lower push plates 25 of the other sliding plate 21 rotate away from the plate and continuously compress the tension spring 24 to the right, so that the push plate 25 is lifted without affecting the movement of the plate. Then the drive motor 27 reverses to reset the two sliding plates 21, and the above steps are repeated to realize continuous step feeding of the plate.

[0015] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
