Both the first rod body 11 and the embedded part 12 are hollow cylinders. The embedded part 12 is disposed at the upper end of the first rod body 11. The cross-sectional area of ​​the first rod body 11 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the embedded part 12, that is, the embedded part 12 is recessed relative to the first rod body 11. The connection between the first rod body 11 and the embedded part 12 has a stepped surface 13, which extends horizontally and is specifically annular.

[0038] The second rod 2 extends in the vertical direction, specifically as an upper rod, including a second rod body 21 and an outer sleeve 22 disposed at one end of the second rod body 21. Both the second rod body 21 and the outer sleeve 22 are hollow cylinders. An inner part 12 is disposed at the lower end of the second rod body 21. The cross-sectional area of ​​the second rod body 21 is equal to the cross-sectional area of ​​the outer sleeve 22. In one embodiment, the second rod body 21 and the outer sleeve 22 are integrally formed.

[0039] At least part of the first connector 3 is disposed in the embedded part 12. Specifically, the first connector 3 is hollow, with an external thread 31 on its upper part and two first through holes 32 symmetrically disposed on its lower part. The lower part of the first connector 3 is disposed in the embedded part 12, and two embedded part through holes 121 symmetrically disposed on the embedded part 12. The first rivet 5 is disposed in the two first through holes 32 and the two embedded part through holes 121, thereby connecting the first connector 3 to the embedded part 12.

[0040] The second connector 4 is disposed inside the second rod body 11. The cross-sectional area of ​​the second rod body 11 is larger than that of the second connector 4. Specifically, the second connector 4 is hollow and has an internal thread 41 at its lower part. The internal thread 41 is used to screw into the external thread 31. The upper part of the second connector 4 has two symmetrically arranged second through holes 42, and the outer sleeve 22 has two symmetrically arranged outer sleeve through holes 221. The second rivet 6 is disposed in the two second through holes 42 and the two outer sleeve through holes 221, thereby connecting the second connector 4 to the outer sleeve 22.

[0041] As shown in Figures 1-2, the connecting rod extends vertically and is cylindrical in shape. The first rod 1 and the second rod 2 are connected together. The external thread 31 of the first connecting member 3 is screwed into the internal thread 41 of the second connecting member 4. The outer sleeve 22 is fitted over the inner part 12. The inner part 12, the first connecting member 3, and the second connecting member 4 are not exposed. The second rod body 21, the second connecting member 4, the first connecting member 1, the inner part 12, and the first rod body 11 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom.
