Of course, in other embodiments, the circulating track 102 can be arranged in other shapes according to the factory layout, which is not limited herein.

[0057] The power output end of the first driving part 101 is connected with a chain wheel, and the chain 103 is arranged along the extension direction of the circulating track 102. In the present example, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the chain 103 has a gap between the two rollers, the connecting seat 201 is inserted into the gap, and the chain 103 drives the connecting seat 201 to be transported by the driving of the first driving part 101.

[0058] As a specific embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 , the spraying assembly 3 of the present embodiment is fixed above the circulating track 102, and the axle 5 needs to be stopped at the spraying position for spraying operation. It should be noted that the spraying assembly 3 can also be fixed with two adjacent connecting seats 201, so that the spraying assembly 3 can be sprayed while the axle 5 is transported, further increasing the spraying efficiency.

The clamping end of the clamping jaw 2023 is provided with a circular arc groove, and the U-shaped seat 205 is provided with a pin shaft 206 matching the diameter of the circular arc groove. When the third driving part 2024 drives the two clamping jaws 2023 to approach each other, the clamping jaws 2023 are locked to limit the displacement of the connecting arm 202.

[0066] As shown in Figure 5 The rotating shaft 402 is a threaded shaft, and limit nuts 6 are arranged on both sides of the rod end joint bearing and / or the connecting rod 5012. By arranging the limit nuts 6, the stability of the connection of the axle 5 is increased, the axle 5 is prevented from shaking during transportation, and the spraying effect is improved.

[0067] Preferably, the driving assembly 301 adopts a three-axis combined module to adapt to the adjustment of the spray gun 302 in the X, Y and Z directions. The first driving part 101 adopts a servo motor, which can control the rotation angle of the axle 5, so that the irregular surface of the axle 5 can be kept perpendicular to the spray gun 302, and the position adjustment of the spray gun 302 can meet the distance requirement between the spray gun 302 and the surface to be sprayed of the axle 5, thereby ensuring the spraying effect.
