[0025] As shown Figure 1 , 2 As shown, as a preferred solution, the roller conveyor 2 includes a frame 21 and a plurality of rollers 22, and the guiding device 3 is arranged on one side of the top surface of the frame 21; the plurality of rollers 22 are arranged at intervals on the frame 21, and the rollers 22 are inclined towards one side in their transmission direction; specifically, the rotation direction of the rollers 22 intersects with the reference plane 301 of the guiding device 3, and the intersection angle is an acute angle. When the wooden board 1 is placed on the roller conveyor 2, the wooden board 1 moves forward and laterally under the drive of the rollers 22, and then one side surface of the wooden board 1 abuts against the reference plane 301. Finally, when one side surface of the wooden board 1 abuts against the reference plane 301, it is transmitted forward at the same time.
