[0037] Its usage or working principle is:

[0038] When the output ratchet is to output clockwise motion, the first left drive cylinder inputs low-pressure gas or no gas. At this time, the output end of the first left drive cylinder outputs a small thrust or is in a free state. Then the first right drive cylinder inputs high-pressure gas, and the output end ejects. Since the output end of the first left drive cylinder outputs a small thrust or is in a free state, the first right drive cylinder will first push the first swing pawl to swing clockwise. At this time, the first left ratchet tooth contacts the first transmission tooth and pushes the first transmission tooth to move clockwise. Then the first left drive cylinder can input high-pressure gas to retract the output end of the first left drive cylinder, and the first right drive cylinder continues to output motion, then the first left ratchet tooth continues to push the first transmission tooth to contact the clockwise direction. When the first right drive cylinder rotates clockwise, when the first right drive cylinder reaches the limit stroke, the first right drive cylinder disconnects the high-pressure gas or outputs low-pressure pneumatic. At this time, the output end of the first right drive cylinder outputs a small thrust or is in a free state. Then the first right cylinder outputs a high-pressure cylinder and outputs a retraction motion, pushing the ratchet disc assembly to rotate counterclockwise. At this time, since the output end of the first right drive cylinder outputs a small thrust or is in a free state, the first swing pawl rotates counterclockwise as a whole, and the first left pawl tooth is in a state of being attached to the first transmission tooth. At this time, the first swing pawl and the output ratchet are in a power disconnected state; repeating the above actions can achieve continuous clockwise motion output. If counterclockwise motion is required, the above actions can be performed in reverse.

[0039] The beneficial effect of this embodiment is that the right drive assembly and the first swing pawl are rotatably connected through the first swing connecting hole, and the left drive assembly and the ratchet disk assembly are rotatably connected.

[0046] Its usage or working principle is:

[0047] When the output ratchet is to output clockwise motion, the second left drive cylinder inputs low-pressure gas or no gas. At this time, the output end of the second left drive cylinder outputs a small thrust or is in a free state. Then the second right drive cylinder inputs high-pressure gas, and the output end of the second right drive cylinder moves. Since the output end of the second left drive cylinder outputs a small thrust or is in a free state, the second right drive cylinder will first push the second swing upper ratchet to swing clockwise.

Then the second left drive cylinder can input high-pressure pneumatic pressure to make the first left drive cylinder The output end of the cylinder retracts, and the second right driving cylinder continues to output movement, then the second upper ratchet tooth continues to push the first transmission tooth to contact and rotate clockwise. When the second right driving cylinder reaches the limit stroke, the output end of the second left driving cylinder outputs a small thrust or is in a free state, so that the first left driving cylinder retracts.

At this time, the second upper ratchet tooth and the second lower ratchet tooth are both away from the first transmission tooth. At this time, the first transmission tooth has no power input. Repeating the above actions can achieve continuous clockwise motion output. If counterclockwise motion is required, the above actions can be performed in reverse.

[0051] Working principle: A movable pawl and at least one set of driving components are rotatably connected to the pawl component.
