The hopper is driven by an electric motor, the electric driving device is connected with the driving assembly 202, and the driving assembly 202 is driven by the electric driving device to swing back and forth on two sides of the hopper 100. That is, the rod entering the hopper 100 swings in opposite directions when sliding down to the top of the driving component 202, and specifically swings inward and outward along the insertion port 103 relative to the central axis of the hopper by the driving component 202, so as to avoid the clamping groove phenomenon of the rod in the falling process, and further drive the rod to fall smoothly. The electric drive device adopts a conventional electric driver, and according to different actual requirements, the swing speed is preset to drive the drive assembly 202 to reciprocate in cooperation with the structure of the lollipop feeding device, the conveying speed of the lollipop and the like.

During the implementation, in the stick got into hopper 100 through hopper pan feeding mouth 1051, the stick of hopper 100 both sides rolled along the pan feeding inclined plane and fell, and middle part stick is shunted through reposition of redundant personnel subassembly 102, falls into the pan feeding passageway respectively by reposition of redundant personnel subassembly, when falling to both sides drive assembly 202 top or side, carries out inside outside swing along interface 103 through drive assembly 202, avoids the draw-in groove phenomenon of stick at the whereabouts in-process, and then drives the smooth and easy whereabouts of stick.

On the premise of not limiting the lollipop feeding device, according to different requirements of actual use, any one of pneumatic drive, vibration drive and electric drive or the combination of two or more of the pneumatic drive, the vibration drive and the electric drive can be selected independently, the drive sequence of the separate drive devices can be replaced successively, any one drive device drives the drive assembly to reciprocate, and then the other drive device or the other drive devices are matched to avoid the phenomenon of clamping grooves of the lollipop in the falling process, so that the lollipop is driven to fall smoothly.

The above description is only for the preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope of the present invention are included in the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
