[0019] The end of the screening section 52 is provided with a guide section 56, which is tapered and the end of the guide section 56 is smoothly connected to the discharge section 53.
[0020] The horizontal cross-section of the directional groove 54 is consistent with the shape of the horizontal cross-section of the workpiece 2 in the required positioning direction, and the horizontal cross-sectional area of the directional groove 54 is 1-1.5 times the horizontal cross-sectional area of the workpiece 2 in the required positioning direction.
[0021] The feeding trough 7 is arranged in a straight inclined line. The feeding trough 7 includes a base plate 71, a first side plate 72 is vertically fixed on the base plate 71, a groove 73 is also provided on the base plate 71, and a second side plate 74 is also provided on the base plate 71.
