[0037] As an implementation manner, the first sealing connection component D is sleeved on the connecting shaft 1 and the first sealing connection component D and the first universal head seat 5 can rotate relatively.

[0038] The second sealing connection assembly has the same structure and function as the first sealing connection assembly D. The difference is that the first sealing connection assembly D is used to realize the connection and sealing between the rotor connection part A and one end of the universal connecting rod B (the end where the first universal head 2 is located), and the second sealing connection assembly is used to realize the connection and sealing between the other end of the universal connecting rod B (the end where the second universal head 3 is located) and the transmission shaft connection part C. The structure and function of the second sealing connection assembly will not be repeated here.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the universal head includes a side spherical surface 15 and an end plane 14 . A ball seat 13 is provided on the end plane 14 , and a steel ball 12 is mounted on the ball seat 13 .

[0040] Specifically, the outer side surface of the universal head (the first universal head 2 and the second universal head 3) away from the connecting shaft 1 is a spherical surface, and the end plane 14 connecting the universal head to the connecting shaft 1 is similar to the side surface of a cylinder.

[0048] During the drilling operation, the universal shaft converts the planetary motion of the rotor connected to the live hinge 4 into the fixed axis motion of the transmission shaft connected to the one-piece water cap 6. At this time, the head ball (first universal head 2 and second universal head 3) of the connecting shaft 1 will produce friction with the live hinge 4 and the inner arc inner hole (first head seat 16 and second head seat 17) of the one-piece water cap 6. Because these two parts are surface nitrided during processing, the overall material hardness is high, and the durability of the parts is also increased. This reduces the replacement of parts, greatly reduces production costs, and also improves the work efficiency of drilling operations.
