[0024] In one possible implementation, a hexagonal body is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the left connector body 1 near the center.

[0025] The purpose of adopting the above technical solution is to facilitate tightening with a wrench during installation.

[0026] In one possible implementation, the concave ball head seal 2 is annular, and one end of the convex ball head seal 5 is hemispherical.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, one side of the concave ball head seal 2 is a flat surface and the other side is a concave spherical surface, and the other side of the convex ball head seal 5 is a concave spherical surface. The inner spherical surface of the concave ball head seal 2 and the outer spherical surface of the convex ball head seal 5 have the same curvature, thus ensuring their sealing.

[0028] In one possible implementation, the right connector body 4 is cylindrical.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the cylinder is stepped.

[0030] In one possible implementation, the nut 3 has an internal thread.

[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, the thread profile of the internal thread of the nut 3 matches the external thread of the left connector body 1, and one end of the inner hole has a step.

[0032] In a possible implementation, the left joint body 1, the concave ball head seal 2, the right joint body 4 and the convex ball head seal 5 are internally provided with inner holes.

[0034] In a possible implementation, the micro electric push rods 31 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the side end of the nut 3 near the center, and the connecting disc 32 is fixedly connected between the output ends of the two micro electric push rods 31.

[0035] By adopting the technical scheme, the micro electric push rods 31 are arranged at the side end of the nut 3, so as to drive the connecting disc 32 to move, and the micro electric push rods 31 are micro type.
