[0066] The structure of the support frame 4 is not limited in the utility model, as long as the corresponding support function can be realized.

[0067] Further, in some embodiments, the cover body 11 of the steam module 1 is formed with a moving channel 111, the moving channel 111 is arranged through along the first direction X and along the third direction Z, and the moving channel 111 is located between the opening of the condensing piece and the steam generator.

The carrier 22 is arranged correspondingly to the moving channel 111, and the carrier 22 is used for carrying the material to be detected and passing through the moving channel 111 with the material to be detected under the driving action of the driving mechanism 21.

[0069] In this embodiment, the steam module 1 generates steam, such as water vapor, in the cover 11 by using a steam generator. During the process that the driving mechanism 21 drives the carrier 22 to move through the moving channel 111 in the first direction X, the water vapor has sufficient wetting capacity and can quickly cover the surface of the material to be inspected, and form a thin film on the surface of the material to be inspected, thereby realizing the appearance quality detection of the material to be inspected. Moreover, the cover 11 can prevent the water vapor generated by the steam generator from polluting the optical detection equipment such as the camera, thereby further ensuring the detection effect of the material to be inspected.

[0070] In some embodiments, the steam generator can be arranged towards the moving channel 111, so that when the carrier 22 carrying the material to be inspected moves into the moving channel 111, the steam can quickly cover the surface of the material to be inspected. For example, the steam generator is connected to the top of the cover 11, the moving channel 111 is located below the steam generator, and the steam outlet of the steam generator is arranged towards the bottom. In the third direction Z, the steam outlet of the steam generator can be arranged opposite to the moving channel 111, or the steam outlet of the steam generator can be arranged non-opposite to the moving channel 111.

[0071] In some embodiments, the steam generator is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cover 11, such as by bolt connection, welding, riveting, etc. The top of the cover 11 is provided with a communication pipe. The communication pipe communicates the outside and the inside of the cover 11, so as to facilitate wiring and supplying liquid or gas to the steam generator through the communication pipe. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the bottom opening 112 of the cover 11 is provided, and the steam generator uses the bottom opening 112 of the cover 11 for wiring and supplying liquid or gas.

[0073] In some embodiments, in the third direction Z, the moving channel 111 of the cover 11 is located above the bottom opening 112 and communicates with the bottom opening 112. That is, in the second direction Y, the bottom structure of the cover 11 close to the bottom opening 112 is arranged on both sides of the moving channel 111 and forms a blocking structure on both sides of the moving channel 111, so as to block the steam from escaping and avoid the steam from polluting other electronic elements such as the camera.

[0074] In some embodiments not shown, the carrying module 2 is located on one side of the cover 11 in the second direction Y, and the side of the cover 11 in the second direction Y is provided with a gap, the moving channel 111 is formed in the cover 11 and communicates with the gap. That is, the bottom of the cover 11 is not open. In this embodiment, the bottom of the cover 11 is not open, the gap in the side provides a moving space for the carrier 22, and the effect of preventing steam from escaping is better, and the structure is simple and easy to manufacture and use.

[0075] In the third direction Z, the moving channel 111 of the cover 11 can be located above the gap or can be flush with the gap.

[0076] Further, in some embodiments not shown, the bottom of the cover 11 is not open, and the side of the cover 11 in the second direction Y is provided with a gap, and the gap communicates with the moving channel 111. The steam module 1 further comprises a first flexible barrier and a second flexible barrier, the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier are arranged side by side in the third direction Z, that is, arranged side by side in the height direction, to jointly enclose the gap. Wherein, the mutually away ends of the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier are connected with the cover 11 respectively, such as bonding, screw connection and the like, and the mutually close ends of the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier can be in contact with each other, or even abut each other; or a small gap can be provided between the mutually close ends of the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier, as long as it can jointly enclose the gap.

[0077] In this embodiment, since the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier have flexibility, when the carrier 22 passes through the cover 11, the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier can provide a moving space for the carrier 22; after the carrier 22 leaves the cover 11, the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier can enclose the gap to prevent the steam in the cover 11 from overflowing, thereby further ensuring the detection effect.

[0078] Exemplarily, the first flexible barrier and the second flexible barrier are both dust-free brushes, which have good steam leakage prevention effect and will not scratch the carrier 22.

[0079] Further, the material of the cover 11 is not limited in the utility model, as long as it can block the steam to prevent the steam from polluting the visual detection module.

In this way, the driving mechanism 21 can be prevented from interfering with other detection components, which is beneficial for space layout.

[0081] Specifically, in some embodiments, the driving mechanism 21 can include a first driving assembly 211 and a second driving assembly 212. The first driving assembly 211 extends along the first direction X and is connected with the second driving assembly 212. The second driving assembly 212 extends along the third direction Z and is connected with the carrier 22. That is, the carrier 22 is directly connected with the second driving assembly 212 and indirectly connected with the first driving assembly 211 through the second driving assembly 212. The first driving assembly 211 and the second driving assembly 212 can realize driving the carrier 22 to move along the first direction X and the third direction Z, respectively, which has high flexibility. Moreover, driving the carrier 22 to move along the third direction Z, i.e., the height direction, by the second driving assembly 212 can adjust the relative position of the material loading part and the moving channel 111, so as to adjust the surface steam covering effect of the material to be detected, thereby ensuring the detection effect.

[0082] For example, the first driving assembly 211 can be a linear motor and extend along the first direction X to drive the carrier 22 to move along the first direction X through the second driving assembly 212. For example, the second driving assembly 212 can also be a linear motor and extend along the third direction Z to drive the carrier 22 to move along the third direction Z.
