[0024] like Figure 1-3As shown, the power unit 1 can limit the displacement of the extension rod 23 and provide power, and as the extension rod 23 is displaced in the inner cavity of the extension groove 33, one end of the expansion block 32 will be deformed and the slot 34 will be expanded, thereby facilitating the insertion of the part to be processed. The deformation of the expansion block 32 can be used to clamp the part through the clamping unit 4, so that the cylindrical part surface can be better clamped and fixed all around.

[0025] Example 2

[0026] Reference Figure 3-4 , which is the second embodiment of the utility model, and this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment.

[0027] In this embodiment, the extension unit 2 also includes a support rod 21, which is fixedly connected to one side of the support plate 12. One end of the support rod 21 is movably connected to a threaded sleeve 22.

[0029] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the threaded sleeve 22 rotates with the support of the support rod 21 under the cooperation of the gear 14, thereby pushing the extension rod 23 and the slider 25 to move along the inner cavity of the slide groove 24, providing power for the extension of the extension rod 23.

[0030] Example 3

[0031] Reference Figure 1-2 , which is the third embodiment of the utility model, and this embodiment is based on the previous two embodiments.

[0032] In this embodiment, the power unit 1 also includes two gears 14 , which are fixedly connected to one side of the threaded sleeve 22 and the output shaft of the motor 13 , respectively. The upper gear 14 is sleeved on the surface of the support rod 21 , and the two gears 14 are meshed with each other.

[0033] The power unit 1 comprises a mounting frame 11 , a support plate 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner cavity of the mounting frame 11 , and a motor 13 is fixedly connected to the lower end of one side of the support plate 12 .
