[0062] Based on the above embodiment, an end plate 331 is welded to one end of the connecting rod 33, and a fixing plate is welded to the gantry 2. Both ends of the fixing plate are pre-installed (welded) with screws 21. The two screws 21 pass through both ends of the end plate 331 and are threadedly connected with nuts.
