A wheel-foot connecting plate 7 is fixed to the lower end surface of the support column body 8. Connection holes 6 are provided on the sides of the upper swing arm 3 and the lower swing arm 4, and the connection holes 6 can be rotatably connected to the fixing bolt 2;

[0020] An upper fixing plate 9 is installed on the side of the upper swing arm 3, and a lower fixing plate 14 is installed on the side of the lower swing arm 4. An upper rotating column 10 is rotatably connected inside the upper fixing plate 9. A movable plate 15 is fixed to the right side of the upper rotating column 10. A limit rack 16 is fixed to the upper end surface of the movable plate 15. A lower rotating column 13 is rotatably connected inside the lower fixing plate 14. A movable cylinder 12 is fixed to the upper end surface of the lower rotating column 13. A micro electric cylinder 11 is installed on the upper end surface of the movable cylinder 12. A sliding plate 17 is installed on the lower end surface of the micro electric cylinder 11. A limit clamping plate 18 is fixed to the lower end surface of the sliding plate 17. In this design, a limiting structure is provided after the relative movement of the upper swing arm frame and the lower swing arm frame, so that when carrying a heavy object, a part of the force can be shared for the electric push rod 5, and the service life of the electric push rod 5 can be improved.

[0021] As the first embodiment of the present utility model: A rectangular groove is provided inside the movable cylinder body 12, and the inner wall of the rectangular groove can be in sliding fit connection with the outer wall of the movable plate 15.
