DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] In order that those skilled in the art can further understand the present invention, a description will be provided in the following in details. However, these descriptions and the appended drawings are only used to cause those skilled in the art to understand the objects, features, and characteristics of the present invention, but not to be used to confine the scope and spirit of the present invention defined in the appended claims.

[0014] With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. The present invention includes the following elements.

[0015] A base seat 1 has a concave recess at an upper side thereof;

[0016] An upper cover 10 has a hollow cavity at a lower side thereof. The upper cover 10 is installed at an upper side of the base seat 1. As the upper cover 10 covers on the upper side of the base seat 1, they are formed as a box body.

[0017] A circuit assembly 11 is installed on an inner bottom of the recess of the base seat 1.

[0018] A push rod gear 2 is installed at a left wall of the recess of the base seat 1. The push rod gear 2 is extended with a push rod teeth 21.

[0019] The motor 101 is installed within the upper cover 10. The motor 101 is installed with a motor gear 102 for engaging with the push rod gear 2 so that the motor 101 can driven the push rod gear 2. The motor 101 is installed with a motor fixing sheet 103 for assembling the motor 101 within the upper cover 10.

[0020] A movable table 3 driven by the push rod 21 and capable of moving linearly.

[0021] A push rod 4 is installed at a front end of the moving table 3 and extends out of the moving table 3.

[0022] Two sliding tracks 13 are installed in two lateral walls of base seat 1. Each of the sliding track 13 is installed with a teeth strip 12. Two sides of the movable table 3 are installed with respective moving gears 31 for engaging with the teeth strips 12 so that the moving table 3 is movable thereon. Thereby, the moving table 3 is movable along the two sliding tracks 13.

[0023] A bottom side of the moving table 3 is protruded with a plurality of finger pieces which is connected to a circuit board 11 so that the moving table 3 is controlled to be positioned at a plurality of predetermined points.

[0024] In the present invention, two sides of the movable table 3 are installed with respective moving gears 31. A worm rod 32 is engagable with the two moving gears 31. Each moving gears 31 may be single layer gears or two layered gears. In the present invention, a two layered gears structure is used for description, but this is used to confine the scope of the present invention.

[0025] With reference to FIGS. 1 to 2, and 4 to 5, the worm rod 32 of the moving table 3 is driven by the push rod 21 extending from the push rod gear 2. The worm rod 32 is formed with an axial hole 320 which receives the push rod 21 of the push rod gear 2. A cross section of the axial hole 320 is not an exact round. The linear moving gear 31 at two sides of the moving table 3 includes an upper worm gear 31A and a lower worm gear 31B. A positioning shaft 310 serves to fix the upper worm gear 31A and the lower worm gear 31B. Two sides of the worm rod 32 are engaged with upper worm gears 31A. The lower worm gears 31A are engaged to the teeth strips 12 at the inner wall of the base seat 1. When the push rod 21 is driven by the push rod gear 2 to rotate, the worm rod 32 will drive the moving table to move linearly.

[0026] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 2 and 4 to 5, the push rod 21 is a long rod and a cross section thereof is not an exact round. The extension rod 4 is installed at a front end of the moving table 3 and is extended out of the box body of the electric control box. A rear end of the extension rod 4 is formed with a channel 40 for receiving the push rod 21. The channel 40 has a predetermined depth and an inner diameter thereof is larger than a maximum outer diameter of the push rod 21. When the moving table 3 is driven by the push rod 21 of the push rod gear 2 and thus rotates so that the moving table 3 moves linearly, the extension rod 4 also move linearly and synchronously.

[0027] Referring to FIG. 6, it is illustrated that the moving table 3 is driven by the push rod 21 of the push rod gear 2 due to the power from the motor gear 201, the moving table 3 will linearly move precisely due to the worm rod 32 and the linear moving gear 31 moving along the teeth strips 12 and the tracks 13. Furthermore this liner moving will cause the extension rod 4 to move linearly, precisely and steadily.

[0028] Advantages of the present invention are that: the volume is small and the ratio of destroy is low. The space is used effectively so that the moving path for pushing and pull is long and thus a large pushing force or pulling force may be generated easily. Furthermore, the moving table can move and position in multiple points due to the engagements of the worm rod with the teeth strips. The moving of the moving table is steady and precise. Moreover, the present invention is a product which can be used industrially and economically.

[0029] The present invention is thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
