[0036] like Figure 1-2As shown, a spring detection fixture includes a fixture body 1 and a detection device 2. The fixture body 1 is evenly spaced with a plurality of positioning grooves, the positioning grooves include a first positioning groove group, a second positioning groove group, a third positioning groove 9 and a fourth positioning groove 10. The third positioning groove 9 is arranged in the middle position of the fixture body 1. The first positioning groove group is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the third positioning groove 9. The second positioning groove group is arranged at intervals on the side of the first positioning groove group not adjacent to the third positioning groove 9. The first positioning groove group is arranged on the side away from the third positioning groove 9. The first positioning groove group includes a first positioning boss 3, a first receiving groove 4 and a first positioning through groove 5. The first receiving groove 4 is provided with a first positioning through groove 5 on both sides. The first receiving groove 4 is provided with a first positioning boss 3. The second positioning groove group includes a second positioning boss 6, a second receiving groove 7 and a second positioning through groove 8. The second receiving groove 7 is close to the third receiving groove. A second positioning through groove 8 is arranged on the side, a second positioning boss 6 is arranged in the second accommodating groove 7, and the fourth positioning groove 10 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the third positioning groove 9 and the second positioning groove group. A plurality of wire grooves are evenly spaced on the fixture body 1, the first positioning boss 3 and the second positioning boss 6. A plurality of guide pillars 11 are evenly spaced on the fixture body 1. A plurality of threaded holes 12 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right edges of the fixture. A special coating is arranged on the surface of the fixture body 1. The special coating is used to cooperate with the detection device 2 to detect the shape of the spring.

A detachable positioning boss is arranged in the accommodating groove on the detection fixture, and the positioning boss is evenly spaced with multiple wire grooves like the fixture body. These wire grooves facilitate the control terminal to judge whether the detection fixture moves horizontally on the conveyor belt through the colorimeter.

[0037] like Figure 1-3As shown, the detection device 2 is assembled by a workbench 21, a bracket 22, a colorimeter 23 and a conveyor belt 24. The top of the workbench 21 is fixedly connected with the bracket 22, and a plurality of colorimeter 23 is detachably installed at the bottom of the bracket 22. The colorimeter 23 is evenly spaced above the conveyor belt 24. A bracket 22 is arranged on one side of the workbench 21, and a plurality of illuminators 25 are evenly spaced on the bracket 22. The bracket 22 is fixedly connected to the workbench 21, and a tray is rotatably installed on the bracket 22, and a touch screen is arranged on the tray.
