The rotation drives the mechanical arm of the industrial robot connected to the connecting flange 11 to rotate. When lubrication is needed during the operation of the industrial robot, the two electric telescopic rods 61 can be controlled to contract so that the extrusion plate 63 moves downward to squeeze the extrusion head 55 so that it completely enters the interior of the connecting groove 52. At this time, the lubricating oil in the storage groove 51 will flow downward into the interior of the connecting groove 52. The lubricating oil entering the interior of the connecting groove 52 will flow along the gap between the extrusion head 55 and the connecting groove 51 to the interior of the guide groove 64, and then flow through the guide groove 64 to the gap between the worm wheel 3 and the worm 72.
