The model of the distance sensor 9 is TF02-Pro. The distance sensor 9 is used to monitor the distance between the support base 5 and the top of the arched frame 2, so as to monitor the height of the liquid level sensor 8.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 2 , A driving motor 501 is fixedly installed on the top of the arched frame 2. The model of the driving motor 501 is: RS-360SH. A threaded rod 502 is fixedly installed at the output end of the driving motor 501. The threaded rod 502 passes through the top of the arched frame 2 and is arranged along the length direction of the arched frame 2. A threaded hole 503 is formed on the top of the support base 5. The support base 5 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 502 through the threaded hole 503. Sliding sleeves 504 are fixedly installed on both the front and rear sides of the support base 5. The support base 5 is slidably connected to the vertical guide rail 4 through the sliding sleeves 504. Through the cooperation of the vertical guide rail 4 and the sliding sleeves 504, the moving path of the support base 5 is guided; then, the driving motor 501 drives the threaded rod 502 to rotate, driving the support base 5 to move up and down. Two groups of guide grooves 505 are formed through the top of the support base 5. The two groups of guide grooves 505 are distributed front and rear.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 3 , Two groups of sliding columns 602 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the sliding seat 6.

[0028] Working principle: First, the output end of the cylinder 604 extends, driving the fixed plate 603 and the sliding column 602 to move to the right. The sliding seat 6 fits on the top of the support seat 5 and moves to the right. Then, through the connection of the elastic component 7, the probe 801 is pulled out of the avoidance groove 3 and separated from the water tank 1;

[0029] Then, the driving motor 501 drives the threaded rod 502 to rotate, driving the support seat 5 to move up and down along the vertical guide rail 4. At the same time, the distance sensor 9 monitors the distance between the support seat 5 and the top of the arch frame 2, and reflects the height of the probe 801 accordingly;

[0030] After the liquid level sensor 8 moves to the predetermined height, the output end of the cylinder 604 contracts, pulling the fixed plate 603 and the sliding column 602 to move to the left, driving the sliding seat 6 to fit on the top of the support seat 5 and move to the left, so that the probe 801 is inserted into the avoidance groove 3 and fits against the right side of the water tank 1; As the sliding seat 6 continues to move to the left, the spring 703 is compressed and contracted. Then, due to the elasticity of the spring 703, the probe 801 is tightly attached to the right side of the water tank 1.
