[0035] A limiting ring 10 is fixedly connected to the mandrel 201. The limiting ring 10 has two fixing holes 11, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the front of the limiting ring 10. The fixing rivet 9 passes through the interior of the fixing hole 11. The limiting ring 10 can limit the two ends of the mandrel 201, so that the mandrel 201 can be stably set between the first baffle 1 and the second baffle 4. The fixing holes 11 can facilitate the installation of the mandrel 201 on the first baffle 1 by the fixing rivet 9.

[0036] There are two limiting rings 10, which are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the outer wall of the spindle 201, respectively. The two limiting rings 10 can conveniently limit the two ends of the spindle 201.

The connecting shaft 12 is inserted into the inside of the spindle 201, realizing the quick installation of the transport wheel 8. By adding the transport wheel 8 to this device, short-distance helicopter relocation can be achieved, avoiding the inconvenience of helicopter movement when using skid tube landing gear, reducing the site's restrictions on helicopter movement. The design of the handle 304... The device allows the user to easily pull the connecting rod 303, causing the positioning pin 307 to disengage from the insertion hole 13 inside the connecting shaft 12. At this time, the connecting shaft 12 can be directly pulled out from inside the spindle 201, allowing for quick disassembly of the transport wheel 8. When it is necessary to install the transport wheel 8, the connecting shaft 12 is inserted into the spindle 201, and the positioning pin 307 is released so that it is inserted into the insertion hole 13 under the action of the spring 306, thereby achieving quick installation and fixation of the transport wheel 8 and further improving the practicality of the overall moving structure.
