A suction pipe 7 is installed between the outer surface of the output end of the suction pump 5 and the vacuum suction cup 6. The lateral clamping piece is fixed to the outer surface of the clamping seat 4.

[0047] The lateral clamping member includes a lateral support shaft 12, and a plurality of radially distributed movable grooves 8 are opened inside the clamping seat 4. A magnet shaft 9 is movably connected to the inner wall of each movable groove 8. A reset spring 10 is installed between each magnet shaft 9 and the corresponding movable groove 8. A plurality of electromagnets 11 are fixedly provided inside the clamping seat 4, and each electromagnet 11 corresponds to the magnet shaft 9 one by one. One end of the plurality of lateral support shafts 12 is respectively connected to the end surface of the magnet shaft 9, and the other end of the plurality of lateral support shafts 12 is connected to an elastic pressure block 13. The plurality of lateral support shafts 12 form a fixed inclination angle with the horizontal end surface.
