[0028] According to another embodiment of the present invention, the anti-sedimentation vibration component 4-4 is a vibration motor installed at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 4-1.
[0029] According to another embodiment of the present invention, the adjustable angle nozzle 4-3 is further connected to the servo motor 4-3-2 via a gear transmission mechanism 4-3-1, and the nozzle pitch angle adjustment range is -45° to 45°; the servo motor 4-3-2 is electrically connected to the controller 3.

[0035] Example 2: For the inspection of irregularly shaped workpieces, the operator can remotely set parameters through the communication module 8. When a change in the curvature of the workpiece surface is detected, the x / y / z axis components adjust the spray distance in conjunction, while the nozzle angle is automatically compensated by ±15°. After each sprayed surface is completed, the flipping gripper 6-4 rotates 90° according to a preset program to spray the next surface, achieving fully automatic continuous operation throughout the entire process.
