The abrasive belt is sleeved on the outer sides of the driving wheel 22, the driven wheel 23 and the support plate 212, and a horizontal placement plate is provided above the driven wheel 23; the angle between the support plate 212 and the horizontal plane is 8-18 degrees, and the angle between the line connecting the axes of the driving wheel 22 and the driven wheel 23 and the horizontal plane is 8-18 degrees; further preferably, the angle between the support plate 212 and the horizontal plane is 15 degrees, and the angle between the line connecting the axes of the driving wheel 22 and the driven wheel 23 and the horizontal plane is 15 degrees.

[0032] The knife to be sharpened is placed on a horizontal plate, and the driving wheel 22 drives the driven wheel 23 so that the abrasive belt can grind the knife to be sharpened. There is an angle between the line connecting the axes of the driving wheel 22 and the driven wheel 23 and the horizontal plane. The support plate 212 keeps the abrasive belt tilted and also applies a squeezing force to the knife when sharpening. There is no need to manually control the sharpening angle, which reduces the workload of the operator and improves the quality of sharpening.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 4 , 5As shown, the adjustment mechanism 3 includes a fixed seat 31, a limiting plate 32, a T-shaped connecting plate 33, an L-shaped handle 34, a connecting piece 35 and a spring 36.
