Second, a first sliding groove 14, a second sliding groove 18, and a third sliding groove 19 are opened on the surface of the second connecting seat 7. A first sliding post 15 on the top of the guide block 4 is slidably connected to the inner side of the first sliding groove 14. The two first connecting rods 3 are connected through the second sliding post 17. The first connecting rod 3 is slidably connected to the inner side of the second slide groove 18. The end of the first connecting rod 3 away from the second slide column 17 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the guide block 4 through the rotating shaft 16. The two second connecting rods 21 are slidably connected to the inner side of the third slide groove 19 through the third slide column 20. This structure limits the range of movement and ensures that the component will not exceed the predetermined trajectory under normal working conditions. Finally, the bottom of the mounting base 8 is connected to the first spring 13, and the inner side of the two second connecting rods 21 is equipped with the second spring 22. The first spring 13 and the second spring 22 can absorb vibration and improve the stability of the device.
