The mounting column 34 passes through the first limiting groove 37 on the L-shaped partition 29. The first cross bar 9 and the second cross bar 10 pass through the second limiting groove 38 on the L-shaped partition. An atomizer 35 is installed on the mounting column 34.

[0048] like Figure 1 , 6 As shown in Figures 7 and 7 , a micro stepping motor 36 is connected to the end of the screw rod 32 .

[0049] It should be noted that alcohol is contained in the atomizer 35. After drying, the atomizer 35 is controlled to start, and the atomizer 35 can spray out the alcohol contained therein after atomization, and at the same time, the micro-stepping motor 36 is started to make the screw 32 rotate forward and reverse continuously, and then the screw nut 33 moves back and forth laterally on the screw, so that the mounting column 34 can drive the atomizer 35 to move back and forth laterally synchronously, so that the atomized alcohol sprayed by the atomizer 35 is more evenly attached to the dried suction head, so as to achieve the purpose of uniform alcohol disinfection of the dried suction head, improve the cleanliness of the vacuum cleaner suction head, prevent children from contacting unsterilized suction heads and causing infection of various diseases, reduce the contact risk factor, and at the same time increase the service life of the vacuum cleaner suction head, with high reliability.
