[0024] The effect achieved by the entire Embodiment 1 is as follows. First, the water tank 4 is fixedly connected to the pipeline 8, the pipeline 8 is fixedly connected to a group of nozzles 9, and the pipeline 8 is also connected to the water pump 10. First, the infrared sensor 11 is used to detect the position of the metal workpiece, and then the controller 13 is used to control the operation of the water pump 10 to spray water on the metal workpiece for cleaning, removing dirt and impurities on the surface of the workpiece, providing good conditions for subsequent precise detection. The workpiece can be cleaned before detection to ensure the normal transmission of light and improve the detection accuracy. Secondly, the workpiece is transported to the lower part of the second support frame 14, and the infrared heating plate 15 operates to dry the metal workpiece, which can quickly remove the moisture on the surface of the metal workpiece, enabling the workpiece to enter the inspection link as soon as possible, thereby shortening the inspection cycle, improving production efficiency, and reducing production costs.

[0025] Embodiment 2 is as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 shown. A second square hole 17 is formed in the top of the workbench 1, two second holes 18 are formed in the outer surface wall of the workbench 1, two servo motors 19 are arranged on the outer surface wall of the workbench 1, rotating rods 20 are arranged at the output ends of the two servo motors 19, a conveyor belt 21 is arranged between the outer surface walls of the two rotating rods 20, a third support frame 22 is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1, and an inspection device 23 is arranged at the bottom of the third support frame 22.

[0026] The effect achieved by the entire Embodiment 2 is as follows. When the device is in normal use, first, the two servo motors 19 are connected to the two rotating rods 20, the conveyor belt 21 is arranged between the outer surface walls of the two rotating rods 20, and the two servo motors 19 operate to drive the two rotating rods 20 to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt 21 to operate to transport the metal workpiece, which can ensure that the workpiece maintains a stable posture and speed during the transportation process, avoiding inspection errors caused by workpiece shaking or tilting. Finally, the workpiece is transported to the lower part of the third support frame 22 for inspection.

[0027] Among them, the water pump 10, the infrared sensor 11, the controller 13, the infrared heating plate 15, the power supply 16, the servo motor 19, and the inspection device 23 are all prior arts, and their components and operating principles are all publicly known technologies, and no further explanation will be given here.

[0028] Working principle: Firstly, when the device is in normal use, rotating rods 20 are arranged at the output ends of two servo motors 19. A conveyor belt 21 is arranged between the outer surfaces of the two rotating rods 20. The operation of the two servo motors 19 can drive the two rotating rods 20 to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt 21 to operate, and the metal workpieces can be transported. Secondly, an infrared sensor 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the first support frame 2. A pipe 8 is fixedly communicated with the bottom of the water tank 4. A group of spray heads 9 are fixedly communicated with the outer surface of the pipe 8. And the pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the first support frame 2 through two fixing rings 12. At the same time, a first square hole 5 is opened on one side of the outer wall of the water tank 4. A liquid level gauge 6 is arranged on the inner surface of the first square hole 5, and the water level in the water tank 4 can be observed in real time, which is convenient for the staff to replenish in time to avoid affecting the cleaning of the workpieces. The metal workpieces are placed on the conveyor belt 21. The operation of the conveyor belt 21 drives the metal workpieces to move. When the infrared sensor 11 detects that the workpiece reaches the specified position, through cooperation with the controller 13, the operation of the water pump 10 is controlled to pump the cleaning liquid in the water tank 4 into the pipe 8 and then spray it out from the spray heads 9 to wash the metal workpieces. There is no need for manual intervention, which not only reduces the labor intensity of the operators, but also reduces the errors caused by human factors, can maintain high-efficiency operation, ensure that the metal workpieces are always in a clean state before inspection, improve the operation efficiency of the overall production line, can keep the detection surface of the metal workpieces smooth, reduce the influence of surface roughness on the inspection results. Secondly, the conveyor belt 21 transports forward again. A group of infrared heating plates 15 are arranged on the inner surface of the second support frame 14. The infrared heating plates 15 are connected to the power supply 16 through wires. The operation of the infrared heating plates 15 can dry the washed metal workpieces. Timely drying can prevent moisture from staying on the surface of the workpieces and reduce the corrosion risk caused by slow evaporation of moisture, protecting the surface quality of the workpieces. Finally, it is transported to the lower part of the third support frame 22, and the metal workpieces are inspected by the inspection equipment 23.

[0029] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not limitations to the present invention in other forms. Any person skilled in the art may use the disclosed technical content to make changes or modifications into equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes and apply them to other fields. However, as long as it does not depart from the technical solution content of the present invention, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention still belong to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
