[0005] The inner wall of the sealing channel is provided with a recess, and an airbag is installed in the sealing channel, the top of the airbag is pressed between the sealing joint and the filling joint, and the bottom of the airbag is squeezed between the sealing joint and the workpiece joint, so that an inflation chamber is enclosed between the wall of the airbag and the recess of the sealing channel;

[0006] The sealing joint is provided with an inflation channel, one end of which is communicated with the inflation chamber, and the other end of which is connected with high-pressure air through a control valve.

[0007] Optionally, the workpiece joint, the sealing joint and the filling joint are fastened by bolts.

[0008] Optionally, a first positioning groove adapted to one end of the sealing joint is provided on a side of the filling joint close to the sealing joint, and a second positioning groove adapted to the other end of the sealing joint is provided on a side of the workpiece joint close to the sealing joint.
