[0025] The ball probe 5 is mounted on the lever 3. Since the front end is spherical, during measurement, the contact part is point contact, which ensures the accuracy of the transmission of the distance variation.

[0026] The clamping rod 12 is installed in the through hole on the side of the positioning shaft 1, and has a screw hole at the tail for installing a clamping screw. By pressing the clamping screw, the clamping rod 12 rotates the lever 3 to control the retraction and exposure of the ball probe 5 on the positioning shaft.

The probe 6 is finally displayed by the micrometer 7; when the positioning shaft 1 is placed in the planetary shaft hole of the differential housing, the top tightening screw of the clamping rod 12 is pressed down, and the clamping rod 12 presses down the tail of the lever 3, and the other side of the lever 3 rotates synchronously, driving the ball probe 5 to rotate into the inside of the mounting groove 2 of the positioning shaft 1, while avoiding the inner wall of the planetary shaft hole; after the workpiece 20 to be measured is placed, the clamping screw is loosened, and under the action of the spring 9, the lever 3 rotates in the opposite direction, and the ball probe 5 contacts the transmission member 19 to complete the measurement.
