[0024] In this embodiment, a slide groove is provided on the inner side wall of the groove, and an adjustment plate 6 is slidably inserted on the inner side wall of the slide groove, which is used to adjust the internal size of the groove 2. Two symmetrically arranged guide rods are slidably inserted in the adjustment plate 6, which are used to keep the adjustment plate 6 moving linearly. One end of the guide rod passes through the adjustment plate 6 and is fixed to the inner side wall of the slide groove. Both ends of the adjustment plate 6 are provided with arc grooves, and balls are rollingly connected on the inner side wall of the arc groove to reduce the resistance when the adjustment plate 6 moves, and part of the ball passes through the arc groove.

[0025] In this embodiment, a lead screw 11 is inserted into the adjusting plate 6 for driving the adjusting plate 6 to move. The lead screw 11 and the adjusting plate 6 are threadedly connected. One end of the lead screw 11 passes through the adjusting plate 6 and is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the slideway. A worm gear 10 is fixedly sleeved on the end of the lead screw 11 away from the adjusting plate 6 for driving the lead screw 11 to rotate. A worm 9 meshing with the worm gear 10 is provided in the slideway for driving the worm gear 10 to rotate. A support block 12 is rotatably connected to the end of the worm 9 away from the second gear 8 for supporting the worm 9. One end of the support block 12 is fixed to the inner side wall of the slideway.

[0026] In this embodiment, a vertically arranged storage groove is provided in the material selection plate 1 and near the right edge. One end of the worm 9 passes through the material selection plate 1 and is fixedly connected to a second gear 8 for driving the worm 9 to rotate. The second gear 8 is located in the storage groove. The worm 9 and the material selection plate 1 are rotatably connected. A vertically arranged rotating rod 5 is provided in the storage groove for driving the first gear 7 to rotate. A first gear 7 meshing with the second gear 8 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod 5 for driving the second gear 8 to rotate. One end of the rotating rod 5 is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the storage groove.

[0027] In this embodiment, a through opening corresponding to the rotating rod 5 is provided on the inner wall of the storage groove, and the other end of the rotating rod 5 extends into the through opening. The rotating rod 5 and the inner wall of the through opening are rotatably connected. A support ring 13 is rotatably sleeved on the rotating rod 5 for supporting the rotating rod 5.
