A through hole 609 is provided on the dust cover 608.

[0023] In this embodiment, when the flux-cored welding wire needs surface cleaning, one end of the flux-cored welding wire wound on the winding spool 3 is passed through the guide hole 5 of the base 1, through the through hole 609, and into the cleaning cylinder 602 in the cleaning mechanism 6. By controlling the operation of the servo motor 4, the winding spool 3 can be driven to rotate inside the mounting box 2, providing power for the feeding of the flux-cored welding wire. During the process of the flux-cored welding wire passing through the cleaning cylinder 602, the downwardly inclined scraper 603 and groove 604 can scrape the impurities on the surface of the flux-cored welding wire into the inside of the collecting cylinder 607. The cleaning cylinder 602 is threadedly connected to the collecting cylinder 607 by a threaded ring 606, which makes it convenient to remove the collecting cylinder 607 after the work is completed, and to clean the removed impurities in a unified manner to ensure the smooth progress of subsequent processing.

[0024] Example 2:

[0025] Please see Figures 1-3 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: the cleaning mechanism 8 includes two fixing plates 801, which are symmetrically connected to the top of the mounting box 2.

By controlling the operation of the servo motor 4, the winding spool 3 can be driven to rotate inside the mounting box 2, providing power for the feeding of the flux-cored welding wire. During the process of the flux-cored welding wire passing through the cleaning cylinder 602, the downwardly inclined scraper 603 and groove 604 can scrape the impurities on the surface of the flux-cored welding wire into the inside of the collection cylinder 607. The cleaning cylinder 602 is threadedly connected to the collection cylinder 607 by the threaded ring 606, which makes it easy to remove the collection cylinder 607 after the work is completed, and clean the removed impurities in a unified manner to ensure the smooth progress of subsequent processing. After the flux-cored welding wire is initially cleaned by the cleaning mechanism 6, it enters the cleaning mechanism 8 through the connecting pipe 805, and then the water pump is started. 9. Cleaning water is drawn from the water storage tank 7 through the water inlet pipe 10 and transported to the sealing pipe 802 through the water outlet pipe 11. The water flow can be controlled by the valve on the water outlet pipe 11, which can be adjusted according to the actual cleaning needs. After the water flow enters the guide pipe 803, it briefly converges and then is evenly sprayed onto the surface of the flux-cored welding wire through the spray hole 804 for a thorough rinse. The inclined setting of the connecting pipe 805 can prevent the cleaning water from splashing out of the sealing pipe 802. The cleaned water is discharged through the drain pipe 806.
