The staff can set the rotation angle of the servo motor 3 to only rotate thirty degrees each time. The model of the servo motor 3 is selected according to actual needs as long as it meets the work requirements. There is a rotating disk 4 and a fixed disk 5 on the bottom surface of the cross arm 2. One end of the drive shaft of the servo motor 3 is fixedly connected with a connecting shaft 6, and the connecting shaft 6 is fixedly connected with the inside of the rotating disk 4. The rotating disk 4 is movably sleeved with the inside of the fixed disk 5. The outer wall surface of the connecting shaft 6 is fixedly connected with a suspension arm 7. A water pipe 8 is fixedly connected inside the suspension arm 7. A water spray gun 9 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall surface of the water pipe 8. The model of the water spray gun 9 is selected according to actual needs as long as it meets the work requirements. There is a positioning component on the top surface of the fixed disk 5 for positioning the rotation amplitude of the suspension arm 7. The positioning component includes: a plurality of fixed slots 10, all of which are opened on the top surface of the fixed disk 5. The distance between every two adjacent fixed slots 10 is thirty degrees. The inner bottom surface of the fixed slot 10 is fixedly connected with a first spring 11.

A plurality of first positioning slots 14 are opened on the bottom surface of the rotating disk 4, and the first positioning slots 14 correspond to the positions of the positioning balls 13, and the positioning balls 13 are located inside the first positioning slots 14. The positioning component further includes: a plurality of limiting holes 15, all of which are opened on the top surface of the rotating disk 4. The distance between every two adjacent limiting holes 15 is thirty degrees. A positioning rod 16 is movably connected inside the limiting hole 15. A fixed ring 17 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall surface of the positioning rod 16. The top surface of the fixed ring 17 is fixedly connected with a second return spring 18, and the second return spring 18 is connected with the bottom surface of the rotating disk 4.

[0027] By means of the provided water spray gun 9, the user can hold the water spray gun 9 and start the servo motor 3 through the PLC controller 24. Since the rotation angle of the servo motor 3 has been set to thirty degrees each time, each time the staff presses the servo motor 3, the driving shaft of the servo motor 3 can drive the suspension arm 7 to rotate thirty degrees through the connecting shaft 6. When the rotating disk 4 rotates, the first positioning groove 14 will squeeze the positioning ball 13, so that the positioning ball 13 moves toward the inside of the fixed groove 10 and squeezes the first spring 11.
