[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 A rocker arm 14 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1. A driving source for controlling the rotation of the rocker arm 14 is provided on the fixed frame 1. The driving source is a motor reducer 141. One end of the rocker arm 14 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor reducer 141. The other end of the rocker arm 14 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 3. The end of the connecting rod 3 away from the rocker arm 14 is rotatably connected to the movable frame 2. When the rocker arm 14 rotates, the movable frame 2 can be driven to slide through the connecting rod 3.
[0032] The motor reducer 141 directly drives the rocker arm 14 to rotate, and then the connecting rod 3 can drive the moving frame 2 to move back and forth in a straight line. The linear motion of the moving frame 2 is realized by the rotation of the rocker arm 14. The sliding efficiency of the moving frame 2 is high and can meet the high production cycle requirements. In addition, since the motor reducer 141 has a self-locking function, the angle of the rocker arm 14 can be rotated by the motor reducer 141, so that the stroke of the moving frame 2 can be accurately controlled, thereby improving the accuracy of the moving frame 2 sliding to the curved rail 21 or the straight rail 22 to connect with the introduction rail 11.
