The limiting structure includes a limiting groove and a limiting block 34. The limiting groove is opened on the two opposite side walls in the mounting groove, and the limiting block 34 is arranged on both sides of the knife seat 32 corresponding to the limiting groove. The limiting block 34 is slidably connected to the limiting groove, and the return structure is a spring 35, which is vertically connected between the bottom side of the limiting block 34 and the side wall of the limiting groove; the first cylinder 40 is vertically arranged at the bottom of the slide 23 corresponding to one of the mounting grooves, and the motion trajectory of the end of the first cylinder 40 is staggered with the mounting groove, so that the end of the first cylinder 40 can extend into the mounting groove; the chuck 50 is rotatably arranged on the top of the base 10, and a motor for driving the chuck 50 to rotate is arranged in the base 10.
