[0032] Furthermore, an interception position 37 is formed between the lower half of the first guide post 35 and the second guide post 36 .

[0033] Recombination Figure 4 As shown, the cover lifting device 7 includes a lifting power device 71 and a lifting movable plate 72. In this embodiment, the lifting power device 71 is a cylinder. The lifting movable plate 72 is movably arranged between the first rotary module 21 and the second rotary module 22 and the feed port of the receiving channel 311. The lifting power device 71 is fixedly arranged on the top of the equipment platform 1, and the bottom of the lifting movable plate 72 is fixedly connected to the movable end of the lifting power device 71.

[0034] During operation, when the square cover 8 moves to the intercepting position 37, the lifting power device 71 drives the lifting movable plate 72 to move upward, and drives the square cover in the intercepting position 37 to move upward along the first guide column 35 and the second guide column 36 to the feed port of the receiving channel 311, and is suspended in the receiving channel 311 by the suction force of the electromagnet block 34.
