They should be connected, a lower rail 14 is provided on the sliding frame 7, the upper rail 12 slides with the slider group 11 on the upper part of the corresponding Z-shaped fixed beam 6, and the lower rail 14 slides with the slider group 11 on the lower part of the corresponding Z-shaped fixed beam 6. An upper rack 13 is provided on the upper sliding frame 5, and a lower rack 15 is provided on the lower sliding frame 7. The gear 16 is respectively engaged with the upper rack 13 and the lower rack 15 on the same side.
