Further, the included angle between the first rear endless conveyor belt 1 and the second rear endless conveyor belt 2 is adjustable. It can be understood that the spring bagging conveying device can be suitable for springs of different types by adjusting the included angle, and the applicability of the spring bagging conveying device is improved.
