The obliquely arranged cover plate 2 can also appropriately block the liquid from splashing outward to harm the workers. After receiving, the rotating mechanism 3 drives the cover plate 2 to rotate in the opposite direction again, so that the cover plate 2 is buckled at the opening of the receiving hopper 1. The cover plate 2 is arranged in the horizontal direction at this moment, and the cover plate 2 is in a closed state. Then, the moving mechanism 4 drives the receiving hopper 1 to move to the next processing station. The cover plate 2 provided in the application improves the safety of the device, avoids the molten metal liquid in the receiving hopper from splashing to the outside during movement, and the clamping and limiting assembly 44 can clamp the slide rail 41, thereby reducing the risk of the receiving hopper 1 being overturned by the impact of the molten metal liquid during receiving.
