The power output mechanism comprises a primary input gear 27, a secondary duplicate gear 6, a tertiary output gear 5 and a crank sleeve 25, wherein the primary input gear 27 is fixedly connected to an output shaft of the motor 10, the duplicate gear 6 is hinged to the middle of the fixed bottom plate 7, the tertiary output gear 5 is hinged to the upper part of the fixed bottom plate 7 through a flat head shaft 26 of the transmission mechanism, a large gear of the duplicate gear 6 is meshed with the primary input gear 27, a small gear of the duplicate gear 6 is meshed with the tertiary output gear 5, and the crank sleeve 25 is fixedly connected to one side of a crank hole 28 formed in the surface of the tertiary output gear 5 through a crank pin 29 and is perpendicular to the crank hole and the primary input gear 27; thus, when the motor is turned on, the output rotary motion of the motor directly drives the input gear 27 to rotate, and drives the wheel 5 with three-stage output to rotate around the axis of the wheel after the power transmission of the duplicate gear 6.
