Specifically, as shown in fig. 4 to 6, since the scanning device 1 is located at a position above the article 2, the top surface a of the article 2 is located within the scanning range of the scanning device 1 (the scanning range of the scanning device 1 is indicated by a dotted line), and the side surfaces (i.e., the B surface, the C surface, the D surface, and the E surface) of the article 2 and the bottom surface F of the article 2 are not within the scanning range of the scanning device 1, so that the scanning device 1 cannot scan images of all surfaces of the article 2 at the same time. In the embodiment, a plurality of mirror imaging devices 3 are arranged on the periphery of the object platform 4, the mirror reflection imaging of the E surface is realized by the first mirror imaging device 31, the mirror reflection imaging of the C surface is realized by the second mirror imaging device 32, the mirror reflection imaging of the F surface is realized by the mutual matching of the first mirror imaging device 31 and the second mirror imaging device 32, the mirror reflection imaging of the D surface is realized by the third mirror imaging device 33, the mirror reflection imaging of the B surface is realized by the fourth mirror imaging device 34, so as to reflect the images of the B-plane, C-plane, D-plane, E-plane and F-plane which are not within the scanning range in the direction toward the scanning device 1, as shown in fig. 6, the six surfaces of the article 2 can be clearly observed from above the article 2 in plan view, so that the scanning device 1 can simultaneously scan images of all the surfaces of the article 2.
As shown in fig. 12, in another embodiment, the first mirror imaging device 31 may be split into two independent mirror imaging devices, the two mirror imaging devices are a first upper mirror imaging device 311 and a first lower mirror imaging device 312, the first upper mirror imaging device 311 is located above the first lower mirror imaging device 312, and the bottom surface F of the article 2 is subjected to two mirror reflection imaging sequentially by the first lower mirror imaging device 312 and the second mirror imaging device 32, so as to be reflected to the direction toward the scanning device 1. Namely, the first upper mirror imaging device 311 realizes the mirror reflection imaging of the E surface, and the first lower mirror imaging device 312 and the second mirror imaging device 32 cooperate with each other to realize the mirror reflection imaging of the F surface.
As shown in fig. 13, in another embodiment, the second mirror imaging device 32 may be split into two independent mirror imaging devices, the two mirror imaging devices are respectively a second upper mirror imaging device 321 and a second lower mirror imaging device 322, the second upper mirror imaging device 321 is located above the second lower mirror imaging device 322, and the bottom surface F of the article 2 is subjected to two mirror reflection imaging sequentially through the first mirror imaging device 31 and the second lower mirror imaging device 322, so as to be reflected to the direction toward the scanning device 1. Namely, the second upper mirror imaging device 321 realizes the mirror reflection imaging of the C surface, and the first mirror imaging device 31 and the second lower mirror imaging device 322 cooperate with each other to realize the mirror reflection imaging of the F surface.
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 14, the first mirror imaging device 31 may be split into two independent mirror imaging devices, which are the first upper mirror imaging device 311 and the first lower mirror imaging device 312. The second mirror imaging device 32 is simultaneously split into two independent mirror imaging devices, which are a second upper mirror imaging device 321 and a second lower mirror imaging device 322, respectively.

It should be noted that the advantage of splitting the first mirror imaging apparatus 31 and/or the second mirror imaging apparatus 32 into two independent mirror imaging apparatuses is: the inclination angles of the two mirror image forming devices can be independently adjusted, so that when the reflection image of one surface of the article 2 is adjusted, the reflection image of the other surface is prevented from being influenced. For example, when the reflected image of the E-plane is unclear, if the first mirror imaging device 31 is a whole, the sharpness of the reflected image of the F-plane may be affected when the angle of the first mirror imaging device 31 is adjusted; splitting the first mirror imaging device 31 into two independent mirror imaging devices allows the angle of the first upper mirror imaging device 311 to be directly adjusted without affecting the angle of the first lower mirror imaging device 312, and thus without affecting the sharpness of the reflected image of the F-plane.

When the screw rod 82 is screwed in one direction, the first connecting piece 81 and the second connecting piece 83 move towards the screw rod 82 at the same time, so that the length of the angle adjusting device 8 is shortened, and the included angle between the mirror imaging device 3 and the object platform 4 is reduced; when the screw rod 82 is screwed in the other direction, the first connecting member 81 and the second connecting member 83 move away from the screw rod 82 at the same time, so that the length of the angle adjusting device 8 is increased, and the included angle between the mirror imaging device 3 and the object platform 4 is increased.
