The bottom plate 1 mainly provides a quickly replaceable and rotating, sliding base for the gravity clamping mechanism 2, the positioning rod 3 and the flexible support mechanism 4.

[0028] Specifically, the structure of the positioning rod 3 is as shown in Figure 2 The positioning rod 3 and the positioning rod base 5 correspond to each other.

The support block 21 and the intermediate movable block 22 are fixedly connected, and the support block 21 extends out of the opening. The left slide block 23 and the right slide block 24 are connected with the intermediate movable block 22 through the inclined slide block 25, and the intermediate movable block 22 drives the left slide block 23 and the right slide block 24 to slide to both sides or to the middle at the same time.
