The driving end of the secondary reducer 27 is connected to the main shaft 7. The reduction mechanism 28 is placed in the rear frame 5. After the motor 25 is started, it is transmitted to the main shaft 7 through the primary reducer 26 and the secondary reducer 27, driving the main shaft 7 to rotate. There is a certain distance between the connecting bracket 8 and the adjusting ring 9. The connecting bracket 8, the adjusting ring 9 and the angle limit plate 11 are all mounted on the main shaft 7. The connecting bracket 8 and the adjusting ring 9 are used to fix the test head to the main shaft 7 and have a position adjustment function.

[0028] In the second embodiment, a convex portion 29 is provided on one side of the angle limit plate 11. The angle limit plate 11 rotates as the main shaft 7 rotates. The convex portion 29 is used in conjunction with the limit block 10 to limit the maximum rotation angle of the angle limit plate 11. The angle limit plate 11 is provided with a sensor piece 12 at both ends, and a sensor piece 2 13 is provided at the rear end of the convex portion 29. A limit block 10, a sensor 1 14, a sensor 2 15 and a sensor 3 16 are also provided on the side of the rear frame 5 close to the angle limit plate 11. The limit block 10 is provided corresponding to the convex portion 29. Sensor 1 14 and sensor 3 16 are matched with sensor piece 12, and sensor 2 15 is matched with sensor piece 2 13.
