By setting the mounting nut and the pressure plate, it is convenient to axially limit the rotating shaft fork in the direction of the small shaft diameter; the direction shaft fork adopts an inverted Y-shaped arc structure design, which is used to increase the steering torque to make the front wheel steering light and prevent structural deformation. By setting the thrust bearing, the friction between the steering block and the mounting plate can be reduced while bearing the load, which is convenient for the horizontal rotation of the connecting rod. The connecting rod is fastened by the anti-loosening locking nut. The front axle passes through the direction shaft fork hole and the two ends are connected to the front wheels. In this way, on an uneven road surface, the front axle is rotated vertically around the connecting shaft as a whole to realize the landing of the two front wheels. The vertical rotating triangle formed by the two front wheels and the center of the connecting shaft ensures the stability of the front part of the vehicle body. The point support formed by the center of the connecting shaft and the two rear wheel independent supports are combined to form a triangular support on the plane, so that the four wheels of the vehicle can stably land on the ground to ensure the overall stability of the vehicle. Therefore, the utility model is easy to install and disassemble and has a stable structure.

In the universal support steering structure of a marking vehicle of the utility model, by designing the brake disc into a gear shape, the brake disc can mesh with the horizontally movable rack to limit the rotation of the front wheel, and one end of the rack side is connected to the push-pull electromagnet, and the push-pull electromagnet is electrically connected to the relay. When the vehicle travel motor is powered on, the relay is powered on to drive the push-pull electromagnet to move the rack, and the rack is automatically separated from the brake disc to facilitate the travel of the marking vehicle. When the travel motor is powered off, the relay is powered off, and the rack is horizontally slid and reset under the action of the spring force in the push-pull electromagnet to mesh with the rack for braking, so as to facilitate automatic braking at any time to prevent the vehicle from slipping. Therefore, the utility model is easy to operate and has high safety. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
