The movable disk 8 can be connected and used through the setting of the spring 11. A handle 14 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the end rod 13. The handle 14 is made of silicone. The handle 14 makes it easy to pull the end rod 13 to move, and the silicone material has a good feel when used.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5A cleaning mechanism 15 is jointly provided on the blower 6 and the outer casing 2. The cleaning mechanism 15 includes a fixed base 150. The fixed base 150 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer casing 2. A guide rod 151 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed base 150. A slider 152 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the guide rod 151. The slider 152 is slidably connected to the fixed base 150. A nozzle 153 is fixedly connected to the left end of the slider 152. A spring 154 is provided on the outer side of the guide rod 151. An air supply hose 155 is fixedly connected to the left end of the blower 6. The air supply hose 155 is fixedly connected to the outer casing 2. The other end of the air supply hose 155 is fixed to the nozzle 153. The rear end of the outer casing 2 is fixedly connected to a mounting bracket 156.

Under the action of the nozzle, the airflow can be sprayed to clean the iron filings left on the processing platform 4. The motor 157 is started to drive the output shaft to rotate, thereby driving the winding wheel 158 to rotate and winding the traction line 159, so that the slider 152 can slide along the inner wall of the guide rod 151. The spring 154 deforms, and when the slider 152 moves, it can drive the nozzle 153 to move, thereby driving the nozzle to move, so as to dynamically clean the iron filings and other materials attached to the surface of the processing platform 4 to ensure a good cleaning effect.
[0031] When the air intake pipe 7 circulates air, the filter screen 9 can filter out particulate impurities such as dust in the air, preventing impurities from affecting subsequent structural components. The handle 14 can be pulled downwards to move the end rod 13, thereby moving the moving disc 8 away from the contact rod 12 and causing the spring 11 to deform. Then, the handle 14 is released to allow the spring 11 to return to its original deformation, pushing the moving disc 8 upwards so that it contacts the contact rod 12, impacting and vibrating the filter screen 9 to clean particulate impurities such as dust, thus ensuring the airflow of the filter screen 9.
