When the positioning groove 202 cooperates with the positioning boss 302, the column plate 201 of the square column 2 is limited in the limiting groove, so that the square column 2 is accurately positioned in the positioning cavity 301 of the sheet metal support 3, which is convenient for subsequently fixing the square column 2 on the sheet metal support 3 through bolt fasteners; therefore, the insertion and positioning of the square column 2 is convenient, the installation of bolt fasteners is also convenient, and the easy operation also helps to improve assembly efficiency.

[0062] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the sheet metal support 3 has a first mounting hole 305 formed through the positioning cavity 301 for securing the square column 2. The square column 2 has a corresponding second mounting hole 203. Bolt fasteners are inserted through the first mounting hole 305 and the second mounting hole 203 to secure the square column 2 and the sheet metal support 3 together. The fasteners secure the two together using a bolt and nut.

[0063] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, the upper end of the square column 2 is connected to the control console 1 , a connecting sheet metal 204 is fixed to the upper end of the square column 2 , and the control console 1 is fixed on the connecting sheet metal 204 .

A mounting plate 207 for connecting the wire pulley 104 is provided on the connecting sheet metal 204, allowing the wire pulley 104 to be mounted on the connecting sheet metal 204. The cable is connected to the control handle 101 of the console 1 via the wire pulley 104.

[0065] The handle bracket 102 is used for the operator to directly apply force by hand, so it is directly fixed to the connecting sheet metal 204 of the square column 2 for easy force support.

[0066] In one example, the connecting sheet metal 204 is welded to the square column 2; Figure 5 As shown, the connecting sheet metal 204 is provided with a positioning piece 205, and the upper end of the square column 2 is provided with a slot 206 for cooperating with the positioning piece 205. The connecting sheet metal 204 is installed to the slot 206 at the upper end of the square column 2 through the positioning piece 205, and finally the connecting sheet metal 204 is fixed to the square column 2 by welding.Figure 8 As shown, the console 1 is also fixedly installed on the connecting sheet metal 204 by bolt fasteners.

[0067] In some embodiments, the bottom of the positioning cavity 301 is provided with a positioning bolt hole 306 for mounting the positioning boss 302, the positioning boss 302 is installed in the positioning cavity 301 by bolt fixation; the first mounting hole 305 and the second mounting hole 203 are provided as two, thus the first mounting hole 305 is inverted triangular with the positioning bolt hole 306, the square column 2 and the sheet metal support 3 are quickly positioned by the positioning boss 302, and are fixedly connected by installing the fixing bolt at the corresponding mounting hole.

[0068] In the specification, the same and similar parts among various embodiments are referred to each other, and each embodiment focuses on the difference from other embodiments. Especially, for the embodiments described later, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts refer to the part of the foregoing embodiments.
