[0056] 2. The two outward-expanding top blocks 43 expand outward, pushing the two rigid rotating arms 32 to rotate outward, so that the two damping friction sections 33 tightly contact the inner wall of the drive shaft 22 to prevent the drive shaft 22 from continuing to rotate, thereby preventing the hand wheel 21 from rotating.

[0057] 3. Insert the locking shaft 73 into the locking hole 71 and the locking groove 72 to lock the position of the active pressure block 58.
