[0050] Furthermore, the fixing member 23 includes a first fixing plate 231, a second fixing plate 232 and a connecting bolt 233. The first fixing plate 231 is connected to one end (right end) of the steering member 21, and the second fixing plate 232 is connected to the first fixing plate 231 through the connecting bolt 233. There are at least four connecting bolts 233, and a plurality of connecting bolts 233 are arranged to form a fixing channel. In the process of installing the mounting seat 2 on the suspension rod 1, the connecting bolt 233 is first disengaged from at least one of the second fixing plate 232 and the first fixing plate 231 to ensure that the first fixing plate 231 and the second fixing plate 232 are disengaged, and the first fixing plate 231 and the second fixing plate 232 are respectively placed on both sides of the bending section 11, and then the connecting bolt 233 is connected to the first fixing plate 231 and the second fixing plate 232. The fixing member 23 has a simple structure, and the connection process with the suspension rod 1 is easy to operate, which can improve the installation efficiency of the mounting seat 2 and the suspension rod 1.

[0051] In some embodiments, the fixing member 23 further includes a limit block 234, and there are a plurality of limit blocks 234. The limit blocks 234 are arranged on the side of the first fixing plate 231 facing the second fixing plate 232, and the limit blocks 234 are adjacent to or abut against the suspension rod 1. The limit blocks 234 position the installation of the first fixing plate 231 and the suspension rod 1, which is conducive to improving the convenience of operation when the first fixing plate 231, the second fixing plate 232 and the suspension rod 1 are installed.

[0052] The steering member 21 includes a square tube 211 and a connecting plate 212. One end of the square tube 211 is connected to the first fixing plate 231, and the other end of the square tube 211 is connected to the connecting plate 212. The connecting plate is connected to the mounting plate 22. The connecting plate 212 is perpendicular to the mounting plate 22. A reinforcing rib plate is provided on the lower side of the mounting plate 22, and the reinforcing rib plate is connected to the connecting plate.

[0053] Specifically, the robot arm 4 has six degrees of freedom, so that the camera 31 can be adjusted in multiple dimensions, so that the shooting angle of the camera 31 can be adjusted, which greatly increases the range of the camera 31 that can be photographed and detected, and improves the inspection area of ​​the embodiment of the utility model.
