Alternatively, as shown in fig. 3, the lower box machine 400 is placed at the upstream of the conveying mechanism 200, i.e. at the right side of the batch feeder 500, and the material pressing mechanism 100 is placed at the downstream of the conveying mechanism 200, i.e. at the left side of the batch feeder 500, in operation, the lower box machine 400 lowers an empty material box 300 onto the material receiving tray 220, and reaches the lower part of the batch feeder 500 after being conveyed by the conveying belt, the batch feeder 500 automatically puts a certain amount of rice into the material box 300, and then the material box 300 reaches the lower part of the material pressing mechanism 100 under the conveying belt, so as to perform the compaction operation on the rice in the material box 300.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the lower box machine 400 is provided with a stack of material boxes 300, when the material receiving tray 220 of the conveying mechanism 200 is located below the lower box machine 400 and there is no material box 300, the lower box machine 400 lowers one material box 300, the material box 300 just falls onto the material receiving tray 220, and the material receiving tray 220 can be further provided with a guiding and limiting structure as required, such as at least three limiting posts, to limit the position of the material box 300.

The box feeder 400 may be constructed to discharge one magazine 300 (e.g., a plate or a lunch box) at a time according to the conventional art, and installed in the prior art.

In one embodiment, the batch feeder 500 may be a rice thresher that automatically injects a predetermined amount of rice into the cartridge 300.

Specifically, in operation, the magazine unloader 400 automatically lowers a magazine 300 onto the receiving tray 220 of the lower conveying mechanism 200; the conveying mechanism 200 moves and reaches the position below the batch feeder 500, a sensor is arranged on the batch feeder 500, and when the sensor detects that the material box 300 is arranged below the sensor, a certain amount of rice is automatically beaten into the material box 300; the conveying mechanism 200 moves and transfers the material box 300 to the lower part of the material pressing mechanism 100; the pressing plate 131 of the pressing mechanism 100 moves down and the pressing operation of the rice in the cartridge 300 is completed. Later, an additional mechanism can take away the material box 300 on the supporting plate to carry out the next procedure, then the conveying mechanism 200 returns to the lower part of the lower box machine 400, and the lower box machine 400 puts the next material box 300 on the material receiving tray 220, and the operation is repeated in this way, so that the automatic operation of placing the material box, placing the material and pressing the material is realized.

The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.

The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept, which falls within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
