When the pedal driving member 53 is driven to rotate, the gear plate 54 can be driven to rotate, thereby driving the fixed gear 55 to rotate, providing driving force for the dehydration and water-throwing functions.

[0044] In order to achieve quality inspection and classification, such as Figure 1 , 2, as shown in FIGS. 6 to 12, the discharging and assembling detection mechanism 3 includes a detection conveying component 31, a quality detection station 32 and a sorting station 33. The detection conveying component 31 is used to sequentially convey the fed footrest 5 to each station. The detection conveying component 31 includes a detection conveying device, and both the detection conveying device and the conveying device 211 are preferably synchronous belt conveying devices. Among them, material placement seats are arranged at intervals on the synchronous belt conveying device, and the material placement seats are used to place the footrest or the footrest base, so as to accurately send them to each station for processing work. In other embodiments, both the detection conveying device and the conveying device 211 can also adopt existing or conventional conveying devices that can achieve accurate conveying of each station, such as a roller conveying device + a station limiting device (that is, a limiting member is driven by a driving module at the station to limit the conveyed material), which can also achieve accurate conveying of the station. Also, such as adopting a lifting driving device and a horizontal moving device to drive the conveying plate to lift and move horizontally. Limiting structures or limiting seats are arranged at intervals on the conveying plate to correspondingly place the footrest or the footrest base, and accurate conveying of the station can also be achieved.

[0045] The quality detection station 32 includes a fixed rod driving component, and a limiting and fixing component 322 and a pressing component 323 respectively arranged on both sides of the fixed rod driving component. The limiting and fixing component 322 includes a first Z-direction lifting driving device 3221 and a limiting component 3222.

A sensor is arranged in the third Z-direction lifting driving device 3231 to detect the working state of the pressing component 3232. The sorting station 33 includes a fifth XZ-direction moving mechanism 331 and a fourth clamping device 332. The XZ-direction moving mechanism is connected to the fourth clamping device 332 and is used to drive the fourth clamping device 332 to move in the X-direction and the Z-direction. The fourth clamping device 332 is used to clamp the footrest 5 and move it to the recycling station according to the detection result of the sensor.

[0047] When the gear rotation relationship in the foot pedal 5 is abnormal, the foot pedal driving member 53 will be blocked, and it is impossible to rotate the foot pedal driving member 53 or it is impossible to fully rotate the foot pedal driving member 53 to the specified angle. At this time, the sensor in the third lifting driving device will detect the corresponding signal, and according to this signal, it can be determined that the quality inspection result of the foot pedal 5 is unqualified. Thus, the fifth XZ moving mechanism 331 and the fourth clamping device 332 in the sorting operation can be controlled to move the foot pedal 5 to the recycling station, and then it will fall into the recycling box through the recycling operation, so as to facilitate the subsequent troubleshooting and maintenance by the staff; when the quality inspection result is qualified, the foot pedal 5 is sent to the subsequent station.
