Example

[0019] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The utility model provides a fruit buffer feeding mechanism, including a buffer box 1 fixed above a feeding port, a rotatable annular member 2 is arranged inside the buffer box 1, and a plurality of supporting members 21 for supporting and transporting fruits from a high position to a low position are evenly distributed along the outer circumference of the annular member 2.

[0020] The support member 21 here is preferably composed of a plurality of finger-shaped rods evenly distributed in an array along the width direction of the ring member 2.

[0021] As an embodiment of the utility model, a driving roller and a driven roller driven by a ring member 2 are rotatably arranged in the buffer box 1 , and the driving roller is driven to rotate by a motor 3 ; the motor 3 is fixed on the outer wall of the buffer box 1 .

[0022] The endless member 2 here is preferably a belt.

[0023] The annular member 2 may also be a conveyor belt composed of two conveyor chains and a group of material plates, and the corresponding conveyor chains are driven by two sprocket wheels, which will not be described in detail.
