[0042] The connection body 1 of the triaxial connection structure 100 is provided with a third connection part 4 in the Z direction, and the third connection part 4 can be plugged and assembled with the vertical rod 8, and can be detachably connected with the vertical rod 8 through fasteners. That is, the third connection part 4 can realize detachable fastening connection with the vertical rod 8 through both plugging and fasteners, so that the technical solution has the advantages of convenient disassembly and assembly and high connection strength.
[0043] In order to realize the detachable connection between the third connecting part 4 and the vertical rod 8, optionally, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the connecting body 1 is provided with a through hole along the Z direction; specifically, the through hole is a stepped hole a. The fastener is a threaded fastener 5, which is used for threaded connection with a vertical rod 8 having a threaded inner hole at the end (not shown in the figure). Specifically, in this embodiment, the threaded fastener 5 is a screw. In this way, during installation, the third connecting part 4 and the vertical rod 8 are first pre-assembled by plug-in fitting, and then the step hole a of the connecting body 1 and the vertical rod 8 having a threaded inner hole at the end are threadedly connected by screws.

Of course, in other embodiments, the third connecting part 4 includes a plug-in groove arranged around the through hole, so that the plug-in groove can be plug-in assembled with the end of the vertical rod 8 having a corresponding plug-in protrusion (not shown in the figure).
[0045] For details, please refer to Figure 3 to Figure 5 In this embodiment, four first plug-in protrusions 41 are arranged in a circumferential array along the outer side of the through hole, and an axial groove f is provided between two adjacent first plug-in protrusions 41, and the four first plug-in protrusions 41 enclose a stud assembly groove g arranged concentrically with the through hole. Specifically, the first plug-in protrusion 41 is arranged on the side of the small aperture of the step hole a. Since the first plug-in protrusions 41 are arranged in a circumferential array along the outer side of the through hole, the insertion and alignment of the third connecting portion 4 and the vertical rod 8 are easier. It can be understood that the first plug-in protrusions 41 can also be arranged in a circumferential array along the outer side of the through hole to be 2, 3, 5 or other numbers, which are not specifically limited here. The stud assembly groove g is used to cooperate with the vertical rod 8 having a stud (not shown in the figure), and the threaded inner hole is arranged on the stud, so as to facilitate the connection of the threaded fastener 5, and the axial groove f is used to cooperate with the connecting rib (not shown in the figure) of the stud in the vertical rod 8.
