A block 708 is fixedly connected to one end of a group of round rods 707 away from the valve cover 3. The size of the block 708 matches the size of the pressure plate 706. The pressure plate 706 will contact the inner wall of the block 708. The block 708 reaches the position of limiting the pressure plate 706, thereby limiting the position of the bottom plate 703, thereby facilitating temporary positioning of the bottom plate 703. Two L-shaped rods 709 are fixedly connected to the arc surface of the bottom plate 703. A V-shaped plate 710 is fixedly connected to the end of the L-shaped rod 709 away from the bottom plate 703. The V-shaped plate 710 is slidably connected to the surface of the valve cover 3. When the bottom plate 703 moves, it will drive the two L-shaped rods 709 to move.

The V-shaped plate 710 reaches the limit of the moving path of the L-shaped plate, thereby limiting the moving path of the bottom plate 703.

[0032] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, specifically, the cleaning structure 8 includes a support arm 81, the surface of the support arm 81 is rotatably connected to a driving shaft 82, the arc surface of the driving shaft 82 is fixedly connected to a driving plate 83, the side of the driving plate 83 close to the pressure gauge 6 is fixedly connected to a cleaning pad 84, the surface of the support arm 81 is slidably penetrated by a latch 85, the surface of the driving plate 83 is provided with a circular hole 86, and the size of the latch 85 matches the size of the circular hole 86.

The movement of the pressure plate 706 will drive the movement of the ring 705. The movement of the ring 705 will drive the bottom plate 703 to move. The bottom plate 703 will move in the direction close to the valve cover 3. When the bottom plate 703 moves, it will drive the two L-shaped rods 709 to move. The movement of the L-shaped rods 709 will drive the V-shaped plate 710 to slide along the surface of the valve cover 3. The V-shaped plate 710 reaches the limit of the movement path of the L-shaped plate, thereby limiting the movement path of the bottom plate 703. The bottom plate 703 will compress the first spring 701 during the movement. At this time, the first spring 701 is in a compressed state.

After the valve is adjusted, the pressure plate 706 is pushed in the opposite direction, and the pressure plate 706 will slide along the inner wall of the block 708. When the pressure plate 706 is out of contact with the block 708, the pressure plate 706 is released, and the bottom plate 703 will move in the direction close to the top plate 702 with the help of the extension force of the first spring 701 until the bottom plate 703 is meshed with the teeth on the surface of the top plate 702.

[0034] When it is necessary to view the value displayed on the pressure gauge 6, first pull the latch 85, the latch 85 moves and slides along the inner wall of the circular hole 86, the latch 85 drives the circular plate 87 to move, the circular plate 87 moves and compresses the second spring 88, when the latch 85 is released from the inner wall of the circular hole 86, the drive shaft 82 is rotated, the rotation of the drive shaft 82 drives the drive plate 83 to rotate, the rotation of the drive plate 83 drives the cleaning pad 84 to move, the cleaning pad 84 slides along the surface of the pressure gauge 6 during the movement, thereby wiping the surface of the pressure gauge 6 After the pressure gauge 6 is cleaned, the drive shaft 82 is rotated in the opposite direction, and the drive shaft 82 will drive the drive plate 83 to rotate in the opposite direction. When the drive plate 83 contacts the limit plate 89, the drive plate 83 completes the reset, and the latch 85 is released.
