Claim 16:
17. The molding system as claimed in claim 16, wherein:
said third conveying unit is rotatable, partially defines said blank conveying path, is adjacent to said second conveyor, and includes a plurality of turning rods that are angularly spaced apart from each other about a third imaginary axis extending in the up-down direction;
said first conveying unit releases the blank bodies in a manner that arranges the blank bodies in an array with m rows in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and the up-down direction by n columns in the longitudinal direction such that the blank bodies are conveyed by said first conveyor of said conveying device in the same manner, each of m and n being a positive integer;
each of said turning rods includes m turning suction members that are arranged perpendicularly to the third imaginary axis, and is rotatable about the third imaginary axis among a first rod transverse position, a first rod longitudinal position, a second rod transverse position and a second rod longitudinal position;
when one of said turning rods is at the first rod transverse position, said turning suction members of the one of said turning rods are in a transverse arrangement, face said first conveyor, and correspond in position to one of the columns of the blank bodies so as to be adapted to respectively suck the blank bodies in the one of the columns; and
when the one of said turning rods is rotated from the first rod transverse position to be at one of the first rod longitudinal position and the second rod longitudinal position, said turning suction members of said turning rod are in a longitudinal arrangement, face said second conveyor, and are adapted to release the one of the columns of the blank bodies onto said second conveyor in a manner that arranges the released blank bodies in the row in the longitudinal direction.
