[0021] As shown in Figure 2 And Figure 3 The upper surfaces of the two parallel support plates 6 in front and back are both machined with card slots 7, the drag chain unit 1 side plate is embedded in the card slot 7, the left and right sides between the two parallel support plates 6 in front and back are both connected with connecting rods 8, the concave limiting sleeves 9 are fixed on the connecting rods 8 through nuts, and the concave limiting sleeves 9 are embedded in the lower cover plates 3 in the concave areas downward;

[0022] As shown in Figure 4As shown, the mounting frame includes a frame 10 with through grooves machined on its upper and lower surfaces. Both ends of the frame 10 pass through the vertical section of the L-shaped rod 14, and the frame 10 is limited by nuts in the vertical section of the L-shaped rod 14. A pressing handle 15 is connected between the horizontal sections of the L-shaped rod 14. A horizontal guide rod 11 is provided between the through grooves of the frame 10. Several clamping plates 13 are installed on the guide rod 11 by locking bolts 12. Two clamping plates 13 are respectively clamped in pairs at the junction of the vertical partition plate 4 and the horizontal partition plate 5. The upper clamping plate 13 is clamped above the junction of the vertical partition plate 4 and the horizontal partition plate 5, and the lower clamping plate 13 is clamped below the junction of the vertical partition plate 4 and the horizontal partition plate 5.

[0023] Specifically, the lower end of the vertical section of the L-shaped rod 14 does not exceed the concave head area at the lower end of the vertical partition plate 4, and the lower cover plate 3 is fixedly connected to the drag chain unit 1 on both sides;
