[0026] The rubber bushing assembly 9 and the inflation sealing valve assembly 8 are fixedly connected by bolts.

[0027] The coarse adjustment assembly includes a coarse adjustment knob 71, a coarse adjustment bolt 72 arranged on the coarse adjustment knob 71 and a first nut 73 installed on the piston rod 31.
