The threaded rod 7 drives the rotating shaft 15 to rotate while rotating. After the rotating shaft 15 rotates, it can drive the position sensor 27 clamped between the two clamping blocks 26 to rotate, so that it can drive the position sensor 27 to rotate to different positions, and complete the calibration work of the position sensor 27 according to the output values ​​of the position sensor 27 at different positions.
