The collecting box 200 is arranged below the receiving member 100 and is connected to the discharging port. The collecting box 200 can receive the unqualified products conveyed by the receiving member 100.

[0040] By setting up a collecting mechanism, the material receiving part 100 can receive defective products that fall out of the defective product falling area, and the collection box 200 can receive defective products conveyed by the material receiving part 100. When cleaning is needed, it is only necessary to take out the collection box 200 to complete the cleaning, which effectively saves manpower, improves production efficiency, and reduces safety hazards.
