The worm gear is inserted into the inner cavity of the hollow column through the center hole of the positioning sleeve three and passes through the fixing ring until its small-diameter insertion end is inserted into the center hole of the positioning sleeve four. The fixing ring is pressed against the rear end face of the positioning sleeve three, and at this time the radial through hole three of the fixing ring corresponds exactly to the radial through hole four at the front end of the worm gear. The elastic cylindrical pin two is inserted into the corresponding radial through hole three and radial through hole four to connect the fixing ring and the worm gear, thereby rotatably installing the worm gear in the inner cavity of the hollow column.

2. A tennis post according to claim 1, characterized in that: The drive part of the worm gear is a groove that mates with an internal hexagonal crank handle, or a protrusion that mates with an external hexagonal crank handle.

3. A tennis post according to claim 1, characterized in that: The bottom surface of the end cap is provided with four positioning posts distributed at the four corners of the bottom surface. The end cap is inserted into the top of the opening of the hollow column through the four positioning posts.

4. A tennis post according to claim 1, characterized in that: The specific installation structure of the mesh hook includes: a vertical groove is provided on the outer wall of the hollow column; limiting stops extending inward into the vertical groove are provided on both sides of the groove opening; a gap is left between the limiting stops on both sides; the vertical groove and the limiting stops on both sides together form a limiting vertical groove; a mesh hook slide is slidably installed in the limiting vertical groove; the mesh hook is fixed on the mesh hook slide; the mesh hook moves up and down along the limiting vertical groove through the mesh hook slide; locking screw holes are provided at the upper and lower ends of the mesh hook slide; a self-tapping screw is threaded into each locking screw hole; tightening the self-tapping screw inward makes the self-tapping screw press against the bottom wall of the limiting vertical groove, thereby installing the mesh hook on the hollow column.

5. A tennis post according to claim 1, characterized in that: The locking assembly consists of several threaded locking holes extending laterally to the flange opening on the outer wall of the adjusting flange. Each threaded locking hole is threaded with a tightening bolt. Tightening the tightening bolts inward causes them to press against the outer wall of the hollow column, thereby locking and fixing the adjusting flange to the hollow column.
