The strap member to which the strap means 4 is strapped may comprise an endless belt 8;

as shown in fig. 8, the binding device 4 includes a binding band frame 41, two tension assemblies 42 provided on the binding band frame 41, and a driving mechanism that drives the two tension assemblies 42 away from and toward each other, wherein each tension assembly 42 includes a tension frame 421, and a positioning member 424, a belt supporting mechanism, and a pressing mechanism provided on the tension frame 421;

the positioning component 424 is used for positioning the tensioning frame 421 on the material carried by the receiving and stacking device 3, and the belt supporting mechanism is configured to support the annular belt 8 and separate from the annular belt 8; wherein the positioning member 424 is preferably a post that mates with a socket on the material.

When the endless belt 8 to be bound is wound around the outside of the two tension frames 421, the belt supporting mechanism supports the endless belt 8, and the driving mechanism drives the two tension members 42 away from each other to tension the endless belt;

when the positioning component 424 is positioned on the material, the belt supporting mechanism is separated from the annular belt 8, and the pressing mechanism presses down, so that the annular belt 8 moves down to be sleeved on the material carried by the material receiving and stacking device.

Wherein the driving mechanism for driving the tensioning units may be a tensioning cylinder 43 connected to the tensioning frame 421 of one of the tensioning units 42, by means of which tensioning cylinder 43 one tensioning unit 42 is driven away for tensioning the endless belt 8.

As shown in fig. 9, the belt supporting mechanism includes a belt supporting member 422 and a belt supporting cylinder 423 for driving the belt supporting member 422 to move; before the annular belt 8 is tensioned, the belt supporting cylinder 423 drives the belt supporting component 44 to move to a first preset position, so that the belt supporting component 422 can support the annular belt 8, and when the pressing mechanism presses the annular belt 8, the belt supporting cylinder 423 drives the belt supporting component 422 to move to a second preset position, and the belt supporting component is separated from the tensioned annular belt 8.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 9, the belt supporting part 422 is an L-shaped structure including a vertical plate and a horizontal plate, the horizontal plate extends from the lower end of the vertical plate toward the tensioning assembly 42, and the driving end of the belt supporting cylinder 423 is connected with the upper end of the vertical plate;

after the tensioning assembly 42 tensions the endless belt and the belt supporting cylinder 423 drives the belt supporting member 422 to move a predetermined distance away from the tensioning assembly 42, the belt supporting member 422 disengages the endless belt.

The downward pressing mechanism comprises a downward pressing block 425 and a downward pressing cylinder 426 for driving the downward pressing block 425 to move downwards, and after the downward pressing cylinder 426 drives the downward pressing block 425 to move downwards, the annular belt is pushed to the material sleeved below in the downward moving process of the downward pressing block 425.

In specific operation, firstly, the belt supporting cylinder 423 drives the belt supporting component 422 to move to a first preset position, in the first preset position, the belt supporting component 422 can support the endless belt 8 to be bound, then the tensioning cylinder 43 drives the tensioning component 42 to move away from each other to tension the endless belt 8, the lifting cylinder 44 drives the binding belt frame 41 to descend, so that the tensioning component 42 is positioned on the material receiving and stacking device 3 through the positioning component 424, then the belt supporting cylinder 423 drives the belt supporting component 422 to move to a second preset position, so that the belt supporting component 422 is separated from the endless belt 8, the pressing cylinder 426 drives the pressing block 425 to move downwards, and the endless belt 8 is pressed downwards onto the material below.

The strap member to which the strap means 4 is strapped may also comprise a flexible strip-shaped strap;

the binding device 4 comprises a guide plate 45 arranged on the binding machine frame 41, the guide plate 45 is provided with a horizontal guide groove 451, when the materials to be bound lean against the guide plate 45, the opening of the guide groove 451 faces the materials, and the flexible strip-shaped belt can pass through the guide groove 451 to bind the materials.

The material stacking device further comprises a discharging device 5, as shown in fig. 10, the discharging device 5 comprises a discharging frame 51, a discharging grabbing mechanism and a discharging driving mechanism, wherein the discharging grabbing mechanism comprises two discharging clamping jaws 52 used for grabbing materials, the discharging grabbing mechanism is movably installed on the discharging frame 51, the discharging grabbing mechanism is driven by the discharging driving mechanism 53 to move to a preset position to release the materials after the materials are grabbed by the material stacking device 3.

In an embodiment, the material stacking device may include two overturning pushing devices 2 and material receiving stacking devices 3 corresponding to each overturning pushing device 2, the overturning pushing devices 2 are located on two opposite sides of the feeding device 1, the feeding device 1 may place materials on the material carrying frames 23 of the two overturning pushing devices 2, and the discharging device 5 may grab the materials from the two material receiving stacking devices 3 and place the grabbed materials to a predetermined position, so that the stacking efficiency of the materials may be greatly improved.
