When the inner slide rod 51 moves, the short column 45 slides inside the sliding transverse groove 53, and at the same time the short column 45 squeezes the support assembly in the tilted state. When the inner rod 51 is moved a certain distance, the inner rod 51 is fixed to the mechanism bracket 1 using the fixing bolt 3. At this time, the tension spring 461 generates tension on the threaded clamping column 462 in order to restore the deformation, so that the connecting assembly 46 can apply a certain prestress to the inner rod assembly 5 to prevent the inner rod assembly 5 from shaking. While the support assembly 55 plays the role of internal support for the inner rod 51, it can also be used to judge whether the inner rod assembly 5 is deformed by observing the deformation of the support assembly 55 during subsequent use, so as to replace it in time.
