[0005] The diameter of the left-hand ball screw is greater than that of the right-hand ball screw, and a long hole is formed in the center of the left-hand ball screw, and when the left-hand and right-hand ball screws at both ends are closed, the right-hand ball screw can enter the long hole in the center of the left-hand ball screw.

[0006] The sleeve ball nut is provided with support bearings at both ends of the outer diameter, a spacer is arranged between the two support bearings, the outer rings of the two support bearings are mounted on the bearing seat, and the inner and outer rings of the left-end support bearing are fixed by a bearing baffle and a bearing pressure cover, respectively.

[0007] Long guide key grooves are respectively machined on the outer diameters of the left-hand ball screw and the right-hand ball screw.

[0008] Further, a first guide key is arranged on the gear box cover and cooperates with the long guide key groove on the outer diameter of the left-hand ball screw to limit the rotation of the left-hand ball screw, so that the left-hand ball screw can only move linearly forward and backward.

[0009] Further, a second guide key is arranged on the bearing pressure cover and cooperates with the long guide key groove on the outer diameter of the right-hand ball screw to limit the rotation of the right-hand ball screw, so that the right-hand ball screw can only move linearly forward and backward.
