A limiting block 11 that abuts and matches the support rod 8 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting groove 10. The support rod 8 can be rotated and unfolded or folded in the connecting groove 10. When unfolded, the support rod 8 abuts against the limiting block 11 to limit the opening angle of the support rod 8. When in the folded state, it can be suspended by using the hook 12.

[0032] Specifically, each of the four corners of the base plate 1 is fixedly connected with a sponge pad 13, which can cushion and protect the corners when the base plate 1 falls.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model:

[0034] When in use, place the diagnostic instrument body 2 on the surface of the base plate 1, and rotate the four threaded rods 302 in sequence to drive the square threaded sleeve 303 and the L-shaped clamping plate 6 to fit around the diagnostic instrument body 2 to complete the connection and fixation. Then, when it is possible to stand it upright, rotate the main board 701 to face the display below the diagnostic instrument body 2, and then insert the pin 402 into the pin sleeve 401 and the positioning hole 403 at the same time to fix the main board 701. Then pull the cross-shaped sliding plate 703 to extend it to a suitable height, and rotate the bolt 502 to move it in the bolt hole 501 until it abuts against the cross-shaped sliding plate 703 to complete the compression and fixation. Then open the three support rods 8 for stable placement. When it is not possible to stand it upright, the support rods 8 can be rotated to face the display above the diagnostic instrument body 2, and the hooks 12 can be hung in a suitable position around the maintenance area.
