[0048] More specifically, the manipulator 103 is a vacuum suction cup type manipulator, which facilitates the suction of the sections;

[0049] The push rod 104 is arranged at the end of the second conveying belt 102, and the output end of the push rod 104 is provided with a push plate 104a;

[0050] Specifically, the reciprocating displacement path of the push rod 104 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the second conveying belt 102;

[0051] More specifically, the push rod 104 is an electric push rod, and the push plate 104a is arranged to adhere to the surface of the second conveying belt 102;

[0052] In use, the manipulator 103 sucks and moves the sections on the first conveying belt 101 to the second conveying belt 102, the sections on the second conveying belt 102 are displaced to the push rod 104, the push rod 104 pushes the sections out through the push plate 104a, so that the sections are separated from the second conveying belt 102 and enter the collecting mechanism 200 (wherein the push rod 104 detects whether the second conveying belt 102 has materials, and an infrared detection device is used, which is derived from the prior art);

[0053] Regarding the collecting mechanism 200, which is used for collecting the sections pushed out by the push rod 104 on the second conveying belt 102, the following is included:

[0054] The limiting frame 201 is two in number and is fixed on one side of the second conveying belt 102;

[0055] The relative distance between the two limiting frames 201 can be adjusted according to the specification of the slice;

[0056] The limiting frame 201 comprises a first limiting frame and a second limiting frame, and the two limiting frames 201 form a hollow rectangular frame;

[0057] The lead screw 202 is rotatably installed in the first limiting frame;

[0058] Specifically, the motor 202a is arranged at the top end of the first limiting frame, and the output end of the motor 202a is in transmission with the lead screw 202;

[0059] The guide rod 203 is vertically arranged in the second limiting frame;

[0060] The support plate 205 is slidingly arranged between the two limiting frames;

[0061] The limiting plates 204 are two in number and are arranged at the top ends of the first limiting frame and the second limiting frame respectively;

[0062] Specifically, one of the limiting plates 204 is arranged in an "L" shape, and the other limiting plate 204 is arranged in a "one" shape;

[0077] The remaining structure is the same as the above embodiment.

[0078] In use:

[0079] Spring part: when the slice falls on the supporting plate 205, the mass of the slice itself will compress the spring, so that the supporting plate 205 and the sliding block 204a are displaced downward between the limiting frames 201, without the need of using the motor 202a and the lead screw 202 nut to adjust the height of the supporting plate 205, so that the production and use costs are reduced, and it is suitable for the working condition that the mass of the slice itself is large.

[0080] Sliding connection part of the supporting plate 205 and the sliding block 204a: when different specifications of slices need to be collected and arranged, the supporting plate 205 and the sliding block 204a are adjusted to a length close to the length of the slice, one limiting frame 201 is taken down, and the distance between the limiting frames 201 is adjusted to adapt to the new slice specification, so that the unstable placement of the slice due to the insufficient length of the supporting plate 205 can be avoided.
