The ratchet wheel 1-1 and the transmission gear 3 are sleeved on the connecting shaft, and when the ratchet wheel 1-1 rotates, the connecting shaft is driven to rotate, and then the transmission gear 3 is driven to rotate; the transmission gear 3 is meshed with the output gear 2-3, and the rotation of the ratchet wheel 1-1 is transmitted to the output gear 2-3 through the transmission gear 3; in this embodiment, the transmission coefficient between the drive gear 3 and the output gear 2-3 is designed so that each time the trigger 6 is pulled, the output gear 2-3 rotates 90 °.
The spring assembly comprises a first spring 7 for resetting the trigger 6 and a second spring for abutting the first pawl 1-2 against the ratchet 1-1; the two ends of the first spring 7 are respectively connected with the trigger 6 and the shell, and after the trigger 6 is pulled and released, the first spring 7 resets the trigger 6 to enable the trigger 6 to return to the position before being pulled; two ends of the second spring are respectively abutted against the first pawl 1-2 and the trigger 6, and the second spring applies thrust to the part of the first pawl 1-2 connected with the trigger 6, so that the claw tip of the first pawl 1-2 is always abutted against the ratchet wheel 1-1.
The limiting assembly 8 comprises a first guide block for guiding the first push rod 4 to perform linear motion and a second guide block for guiding the second push rod 5 to perform linear motion; the first guide block and the second guide block are fixedly connected with the shell.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotation process of the first cam 2-1 or the second cam 2-2 has four stages, which are a push stage, a long-distance stage, a return stage, and a short-distance stage, respectively; when the first cam 2-1 or the second cam 2-2 is in a pushing range stage, the first push rod 4 or the second push rod 5 is pushed out of the shell, when the first cam 2-1 or the second cam 2-2 is in a long distance stage, the first push rod 4 or the second push rod 5 keeps in a pushing state, when the first cam 2-1 or the second cam 2-2 is in a return range stage, the first push rod 4 or the second push rod 5 is retracted into the shell, and when the first cam 2-1 or the second cam 2-2 is in a short distance stage, the first push rod 4 or the second push rod 5 keeps in a retracting state; the first push rod 4 and the second push rod 5 are linearly moved along with the rotation of the first cam 2-1 and the second cam 2-2 through four stages, and each stage corresponds to 90 degrees of cam rotation for ensuring that each time the trigger 6 is pulled to complete one stage, and each time the trigger 6 is pulled to rotate the cam by 90 degrees.
In one embodiment of the invention, the rotation of the first cam 2-1 and the second cam 2-2 is always in different stages, so that the first push rod 4 and the second push rod 5 are in different states; in the present embodiment, the first cam 2-1 is advanced one stage ahead of the second cam 2-2.
