During detection, the light-absorbing baffle 2 can absorb light, reduce the reflection of interfering light to the detection end during product detection, and improve the detection accuracy of the detection camera for the product. When the suction nozzle assembly 3 is damaged, there is no need to replace the entire suction structure. The suction nozzle assembly 3 can be disassembled, replaced or repaired through the bottom plate 1. Through the replaceable design, the maintenance cost of the suction structure is significantly reduced, the service life and stability of the suction structure are improved, and the possibility of misjudgment of the product size caused by the damage of the suction nozzle assembly 3 is reduced.
