[0008] Among them, the first hinge structure and the second hinge structure have the same structure, and the first hinge structure includes: a first hinge shaft, the middle part of the first hinge shaft and the head connecting piece are connected by a key; a limiting component is provided between one end of the first hinge shaft and the mounting hole of the hinge seat to prevent the hinge shaft from rotating, and the other end of the first hinge shaft is connected to the first positioning cap after passing through the positioning hole set on the hinge seat, and an expanded hole that cooperates with the first positioning cap is opened on the side wall of the hinge seat facing the first positioning cap, and the first positioning cap is pushed to drive the hinge shaft to move to disengage the limitation of the hinge shaft on the limiting component.

[0009] Preferably, the positioning cap is threadedly connected to the hinge shaft.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting assembly includes: a gear provided at one end of the hinge shaft, and the gear is meshed with a section of internal teeth provided in the hinge seat mounting hole.

[0011] Preferably, the inner teeth are arranged in the mounting hole close to one end of the head connector.

[0012] Preferably, it also includes a first return spring, which is sleeved on the hinge shaft in the expanded hole, with one end of the first return spring contacting the end of the first positioning cap and the other end of the first return spring contacting the step surface formed by the expanded hole and the positioning hole.
