After the clamping jaws clamp the fruits, the rotating motor 134 drives the clamping jaws to rotate rapidly through the n-shaped seat 132 and the round platform, so that the fruit stalks of the fruits can be twisted off to finish the picking of the fruits.

After the fruits are clamped, the rotating motor 134 in the arm is controlled to rotate, so that the clamping jaws are driven to rapidly and repeatedly twist, the stems of the fruits are twisted off, and the fruits are picked. For the fruits with non-standard shapes, the hollow shaft motor 130 and the solid shaft motor 131 can also implement independent control according to detection signals fed back by the pressure sensors so as to adjust the profile of the clamping jaw.
