[0030] The connecting plate 23 is attached to an outer side wall of the connecting barrel 21, and an outer diameter of the connecting column 24 is the same as an inner diameter of the connecting barrel 21. An internal groove 26 is formed in the connecting column 24, an intermediate plate 27 is fixedly installed in the internal groove 26, a fixing column 28 is fixedly installed in the intermediate plate 27, a sliding groove 29 is formed in an inner side of the clamping block 22, and the two ends of the fixing column 28 are respectively inserted into the corresponding sliding grooves 29. A spring 210 is fixedly installed between the inner side of the clamping block 22 and one side of the corresponding intermediate plate 27, and the spring 210 is sleeved on the outer side of the fixing column 28.

[0031] In the embodiment, when the coupling 1 and the rotating shaft 4 are fixed, first, the clamping blocks 22 on both sides are pressed inwards, the springs 210 are contracted, and the connecting column 24 is inserted into the connecting barrel 21, then the clamping blocks 22 are continuously extruded by the inner wall of the connecting barrel 21 after being inserted, when the clamping blocks 22 move to the clamping grooves 25, the clamping blocks 22 are reset and inserted into the clamping grooves 25 under the action of the springs 210, so that the fixing of the connecting column 24 and the connecting barrel 21 is realized by clamping the clamping blocks 22 in the clamping grooves 25, and after the fixing is completed, the coupling 1 and the rotating shaft 4 can be pre-fixed, which facilitates the subsequent fixing of the coupling 1, and the stability of the movement of the clamping blocks 22 can be ensured by moving the fixing column 28 in the sliding grooves 29 when the clamping blocks 22 move.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In one aspect of the embodiment, the fixing assembly 3 comprises a limiting groove 37, the limiting groove 37 is formed in the internal part of the intermediate plate 27, a moving plate 36 is slidably connected in the internal part of the limiting groove 37, the two ends of the moving plate 36 are fixedly installed with connecting frames 35, the two end bottoms of the connecting frames 35 are fixedly installed with stop blocks 34, the two sides of the clamping block 22 are fixedly installed with follow-up blocks 33, the follow-up blocks 33 are movably embedded in the internal part of the connecting column 24, and the stop blocks 34 are attached to the outer sides of the corresponding follow-up blocks 33.
