An additional detection station is added during the picking and placing process, and one more station is used for detection, which enriches the functionality of the equipment and improves the overall efficiency of grain picking, detection, and placing.

[0016] By setting a buffer mechanism, the nozzle contacts the product so that the fixed seat slides through the third guide rail. The nozzle is buffered in the straight direction by the expansion and contraction of the buffer spring. During the process of picking and placing the grain, the grain adsorption has a higher degree of parallelism with the plane of the nozzle, and the stability of picking and placing the grain is better. Each nozzle provides independent buffering, which is compatible with the production of thick chips.

[0017] By setting an adjusting stud and rotating the locking stud to make the adjusting stud slide under the action of the thread, the compression amount of the buffer spring is changed, and the buffer force of the suction nozzle is adjustable. Different buffer forces can be adjusted for different shovels to meet the requirements of grain picking and placing. The buffer force of each suction nozzle can be adjusted individually, and the grain will not be crushed when picking and placing the grain. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] In this embodiment, the output shaft of the first motor 2 is fixedly installed between the fixed plate 1, the output shaft of the second motor 7 passes through the inside of the fixed plate 1 and is fixedly connected to the cam 11, and the four first slide seats 6 are installed in a ring shape. The fixed plate 1 is driven to rotate by the first motor 2 to provide power for the rotation of the four suction nozzles 21 and the four swing arm bodies 18.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first slide 6 is slidably arranged on the top of the fixed plate 1 through the first guide rail 9, and the two ends of the first tension spring 10 are respectively connected to the fixed plate 1 and the first slide 6. The first tension spring 10 pulls the first slide 6 inward to provide force for the first follower 12 to fit closely with the cam 11.
