The height positions of other parts are adjusted according to the pipe joint with specific pipe diameter specification, so that the requirements of shooting or matching are met. The transmission of the chain and the chain wheel can ensure the accuracy of the position when the device is stopped and can not slip; the stepping motor works intermittently by receiving signals, so that intermittent starting and stopping of the conveying belt 21 can be well realized, and the use requirement is realized.
The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and all technical solutions belonging to the idea of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
