[0021] Furthermore, a first motor 302 is installed at the bottom of the gear box 301, and the output shaft of the first motor 302 and the ends of the plurality of conveying rollers 304 are connected to the first transmission wheel 303, and the plurality of first transmission wheels 303 are rotatably connected with a first transmission belt, and the first motor 302 can drive the plurality of conveying rollers 304 to rotate synchronously through the first transmission wheel 303 and the first transmission belt to realize the conveying of materials; Furthermore, a reinforcement rod 319 is fixedly connected between the two gear boxes 301, and the reinforcement rod 319 is used to reinforce the two gear boxes 301 to improve the stability between the two gear boxes 301; Furthermore, first mounting frames 305 are provided on both sides of the plurality of conveying rollers 304, and sensors 306 are provided on the first mounting frames 305. The first mounting frames 305 are used to support the sensors 306, and the sensors 306 are used to check whether the material passes through the conveying rollers 304; Furthermore, a support rod 310 located below the conveying roller 304 is fixedly connected between the two gear boxes 301, two second transmission wheels 312 are arranged on both sides of the support rod 310, and a second transmission belt 313 is transmission-connected between each two second transmission wheels 312; Furthermore, a second motor 311 is installed on the mutually adjacent sides of the two gear boxes 301 , and the two second motors 311 are respectively connected to two of the second transmission wheels 312 , and the second motors 311 can drive the second transmission wheels 312 and the second transmission belt 313 to rotate.

[0022] Furthermore, a positioning member is installed on the top of the support rod 310, and four connecting frames 316 are installed on the positioning member.
