[0020] The lead screw drive component 23 includes a lead screw 231 rotatably connected to the middle of the lower end of the connecting frame 21 via a bearing seat, and a motor 232, such as a stepper motor or a servo motor, fixedly connected to the side of the lower end of the connecting frame 21. The drive shaft of the motor 232 and the side end of the lead screw 231 are fixedly connected by a coupling.
[0021] The lower end of the movable block 24 is provided with sliders on both sides, and the sliders and the slide rail 22 are slidably connected.

[0022] The connecting rod assembly 25 includes a first rotating rod 251 rotatably connected to the lower side of the connecting frame 21 via a rotating shaft, and a second rotating rod 252 rotatably connected to the moving block 24 via a rotating shaft.

When the fixed sleeve 32 is rotated, the elastic grippers 311 are pressed and retract simultaneously, thus fixing the marking pen 33 in place.
[0025] The electric lifting mechanism 12 and the electric extension mechanism 13 are both conventional electric telescopic mechanisms.

In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0027] Example 2 The operating principle of this utility model: This invention is used for centering and scribing operations on square or strip-shaped workpieces.
[0028] In use, the extension length of the electric extension mechanism 13 and the height of the electric lifting mechanism 12 are first adjusted by the control platform so that the rolling element 26 on one side of the connecting frame 21 contacts the side of the workpiece, while the other side of the workpiece will contact the rolling element of the moving block 24, thereby achieving the centering of the scribing pen 33 on the workpiece.
[0029] When the rolling element 26 on one side of the connecting frame 21 contacts the side of the workpiece, the control motor 232 starts, driving the lead screw 231 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 231 pushes the moving block 24 to slide along the slide rail 22. The movement of the moving block 24 causes the first rotating rod 251 and the second rotating rod 252 to move synchronously. When the moving block 24 moves away from the motor 232, the first and second rotating rods will move closer together synchronously; conversely, when the moving block 24 moves closer to the motor 232, the first and second rotating rods will move apart synchronously. In this way, it is possible to adjust according to the width of the workpiece.
[0030] When the rolling element 26 on the moving block 24 contacts the other side of the workpiece, the first and second rotating rods simultaneously press against both sides of the workpiece. Since the first rotating rod 251 and the second rotating rod 252 are of equal length, their movement resembles the structure of an isosceles triangle, where the two equal rotating rods, like the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle, always remain symmetrical. As the moving block 24 moves, the two rotating rods synchronously approach or open, ensuring that the clamping force is symmetrical and evenly distributed on both sides of the workpiece. Because the connecting part of the rotating rods is always aligned with the center of the workpiece, this symmetrical structure ensures that the workpiece is always in the correct centered position during clamping, thereby ensuring that the workpiece will not shift during the scribing operation and ensuring a high-precision scribing effect.
[0031] When installing or replacing the marking pen 33, the operator only needs to rotate the fixing sleeve 32 upward to release the compression of the elastic jaws 311 at the lower end of the clamping sleeve 31. The multiple elastic jaws 311 open, and the marking pen 33 is placed into the clamping sleeve. The operator then contacts the tip of the marking pen with the workpiece, and then rotates the fixing sleeve 32 downward so that the multiple elastic jaws 311 close synchronously after being pressed by the fixing sleeve 32, firmly clamping the marking pen 33 and ensuring that the pen tip is stable and not easy to loosen during the marking process.
