[0028] The utility model discloses a principle lies in through clamp 5 to the clamping of crystal bar 100, utilize the lifting of stand 4 and lift crystal bar 100, then follow slide frame 3 and move to detection station 6 and detect after.In the process of detecting, in order to detect every side of crystal bar 100, clamp 5 can rotate axially to make crystal bar 100 also rotate to thereby expose every side in detection station 6 before detection for detection.After detection, slide frame 3 drives clamp 5 and sends crystal bar 100 back to conveying belt and conveys to next process down.
[0029] The utility model discloses the conveying belt can be multiple, and clamp 5 is sequentially grabbed from each conveying belt and is conveyed to detection station 6 and detects.It can be foreseen that the time consumed in the whole detection process should match the speed of feeding on multiple conveying belts, avoid causing material congestion.
