The screw rod 62 is a transmission element between the second driving mechanism 61 and the slide 63, which is used to convert the rotational motion of the second driving mechanism 61 into linear motion, thereby realizing the movement of the slide 63. Specifically, the screw rod 62 and the slide 63 are threadedly matched. When the screw rod 62 rotates, the nut moves on the screw rod 62, driving the slide 63 to move along the length direction of the screw rod 62. The slide 63 is a moving component in the moving mechanism 6. The top of the slide 63 is connected to the handle structure 1, and the slide 63 drives the handle structure 1 to move along the length direction of the guide groove 51.
