At the same time, the lifting push rod 803 drives the waterproof motor 8 to move upward, so that the driving roller B 802 contacts the linkage roller 208 on the other side. Then, the waterproof motor 8 drives the linkage roller 208 and the rotating shaft 2071 on this side to rotate, so that the leaf spring can rotate in the annular nozzle 7, improving the quick cooling efficiency of the leaf spring; After the leaf spring is completely cooled, the walking motor 302 drives the leaf spring clamping structure 2 to be lifted out of the cooling tank 6, and then the leaf spring is removed.
