The working environment is equipped with an overhead crane system, and the overhead crane is loaded with a mobile fixture.

[0044] The dust removal head (blowing and suction head) of the present application blows and cleans through the middle dust blowing gap and suctions through the surrounding suction gaps; the dust removal head is suspended on the carrier and has no contact. The middle dust blowing gap blows and the surrounding suction gaps suction, so the dust will not be exposed, and the negative pressure suction (suction gaps) around will not leak air, which can prevent dust from floating out.

[0045] The dust collector head has two suction slits (narrow suction channels) on each side, each wider than the dust-blowing slit. Air from the central dust-blowing slit in the dust collector head (working gun) diffuses to either side, where two suction slit air curtains are installed on each side to draw away dust. Dust-blowing slits and suction slits are added to the narrow sides of the dust collector head, creating a surrounding suction air curtain. This prevents dust from escaping the dust-blowing gun, improving cleaning efficiency and enhancing the automation level of the equipment. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
