The horizontal plate is driven to shrink to the inside of the shrinkage groove by starting the horizontal driving mechanism. During the shrinkage process, the dust or impurities on the top of the horizontal plate collide with the end of the shrinkage groove, and the dust on the top of the horizontal plate can be pushed down during the movement of the horizontal plate. The horizontal plate can also be retracted in advance before the cylinder is started, so that the dust or impurities fall directly to the outside of the protective shell, and can be reset after cleaning.
