[0008] As an optimization, the sleeve is arranged on the outside of the guide rod, and the sleeve corresponds to two groups of connecting rods arranged on both sides of the fixed frame. The push plate moves up and down, which drives the connecting rod to push and pull the support, and then drives the sleeves on both sides to slide along the guide rod away from or close to each other, thereby adjusting the distance between the upper movable brackets on both sides.
[0009] As an optimization, sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the fixed frame, and the push plate is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0013] 1. The X-ray beam limiter will push the push plate upward by starting the electric telescopic rod, so it will push the sleeves on both sides through the connecting rod, so that the sleeves drive the movable brackets on both sides to separate.

[0022] See also Figure 3The driving assembly 8 includes a fixed frame 9 fixedly mounted on the bottom wall of the housing 1 directly below the guide rod 7, an electric telescopic rod 10 is fixedly mounted inside the fixed frame 9, a PLC controller is arranged at the bottom of the electric telescopic rod 10, and the PLC controller and the electric telescopic rod 10 are connected by signal, a push plate 11 is fixedly mounted on the top telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 10, and the electric telescopic rod 10 is controlled to be extended and retracted by the PLC controller, thereby driving the push plate 11 to move up and down;
[0023] See also Figure 3 , both ends of the push plate 11 are rotatably connected with connecting rods 12, and the guide block 5 is plugged with a sleeve 13, which is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 7, and the sleeves 13 are arranged on both sides of the fixed frame 9 corresponding to the two groups of connecting rods 12, and the bottom side of the sleeve 13 is fixedly installed with a support 14, and the top of the connecting rod 12 is rotatably connected to the support 14. The push plate 11 moves up and down, which drives the connecting rod 12 to push and pull the support 14, and then drives the sleeves 13 on both sides to slide along the guide rod 7 away from or close to each other, so that the spacing between the upper movable brackets 3 on both sides is adjusted;
[0024] See also Figure 3 , a slide groove 15 is provided on both sides of the fixed frame 9, and the push plate 11 is slidably connected inside the slide groove 15. The push plate 11 slides along the inner wall of the slide groove 15, thereby limiting the push plate 11 so that the push plate 11 keeps moving vertically;
[0025] See also Figure 4 The internal array of the sleeve 13 has six groups of empty slots 16, and a damper 17 is fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the empty slot 16. A buffer spring 18 is sleeved on the outer side of the damper 17. A slider 19 is fixedly installed on the other end of the damper 17. The slider 19 is slidably connected to the inside of the empty slot 16. A ball 20 is embedded in the inside of the slider 19. The ball 20 is rollingly connected to the outer side of the guide rod 7. The rolling of the ball 20 along the guide rod 7 can reduce the friction when the movable bracket slides. At the same time, the internal damper 17 and the buffer spring 18 can buffer and reduce shock to the ball 20 to minimize the impact of vibration on the shooting quality.
[0026] When using, refer to Figure 1-4 First, the electric telescopic rod 10 is started by the controller, so that the push plate 11 is pushed to slide upward along the inner wall of the slide groove 15, and then the sleeve 13 is driven to slide along the outer side of the guide rod 7 through the connecting rod 12, so that the movable brackets on both sides are separated from each other, and then the spacing between the brackets is adjusted;
[0027] At the same time, when the sleeve 13 slides along the outer side of the guide rod 7, the ball 20 inside it will roll along the outer wall of the guide rod 7, thereby reducing the friction during its sliding, making it easier for the bracket to move back and forth. When the ball 20 is pressed, it will compress the damper 17 and the buffer spring 18, so it will play a role in buffering and shock absorption, thereby preventing the shaking of the mobile bracket when it moves from affecting the filming quality.
[0028] To sum up, the X-ray beam limiter, by starting the electric telescopic rod 10, will push the push plate 11 to move upward, so it will push the sleeves 13 on both sides through the connecting rod 12, so that the sleeves 13 drive the movable brackets on both sides to separate. Similarly, when the push plate 11 is driven downward by the electric telescopic rod 10, the movable brackets on both sides will be brought closer, and then the distance between the movable brackets will be adjusted, and the motor drive method will be replaced to avoid affecting the filming quality due to vibration.
[0029] By rolling the ball 20 along the outer wall of the guide rod 7, the friction force when the bracket moves can be reduced, which makes it easier to limit the rays. When the ball 20 rolls, the damper 17 and the buffer spring 18 are compressed, which can play a role in buffering and shock absorption, avoiding vibration when the mobile bracket moves and affecting the film quality, thereby further improving the film quality.
