The distribution wheel 302 attracts one group of branches through the magnet 304 and drives the branches to move.

The cylinder 402 and the linear module 404 are started to drive the pusher plate 403 and the receiving plate 405 to move respectively, pushing the branches on the receiving plate 405 down and onto the adsorption platform 413. The adsorption platform 413 is moved to the ejector plate 415 by the sprocket 411 and chain 412. The ejector plate 415 causes the branches to fall into the centralized hopper 410. The linear module 2 408 is activated to move the pusher plate 2 409 and push the branches on the receiving plate 2 407 into the centralized hopper 410. When the type and quantity of branches are appropriate, the cylinder 2 604 is activated to move the automatic gripper 1 605 and pick up the branches. The motor 3 614 is activated to drive the drive wheel to rotate. At this time, the synchronous belt 613 moves the moving plate 603 and the branches to the appropriate position. The cylinder 3 611 is activated to move the automatic gripper 2 610 and pick up the branches on the automatic gripper 1 605. The pneumatic slide 607 is activated to move the automatic gripper 2 610 and the branches to the next processing step to complete the branch binding operation.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that automatic gripper 605 and automatic gripper 610 are existing devices or equipment, or devices or equipment that can be implemented with existing technology. Their power supply, specific composition and principle are clear to those skilled in the art and are common knowledge in the field, so they will not be described in detail.
