In this case, the control of each of the motors can be set so as to perform an electrical interlocking operation by installing ordinary components such as a sensor, a switch, a timer, and the like, which are not shown.

Moreover, since the normal stepping bearing 54 which operates only in one direction by the manual control lever 53 is attached to the shaft of the said 2nd motor 43, the 2nd by a button switch in the case of an emergency, such as a power failure, is carried out. When the motor 43 cannot be driven, the jet plate 45A may be forced to operate, and water may be provided by using an existing tank as it is, or a normal battery may be installed and operated.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 9, when the female screw shaft 42 fixed to the piston 24B is coupled to the first motor 35 via the interlocking gears 40a and 40b and the male screw shaft 41, As the female screw shaft 42 linearly moves in the cylinder 25A by the forward and reverse rotation of one motor 35, it is of course possible to generate air by the piston 24B.

In addition, as shown in Fig. 12, a single-plate jet plate 45B is provided so as to be rotatable by the shaft 51b, and the jet plate 45B is rotated forward and reverse by the second motor 43. Since it is configured to bind through the shaft 49 and the female screw shaft 50, it is possible to open or close the catch port 22 in accordance with the opening and closing operation of the injection plate 45B by the second motor (43). Of course, the air can be injected.
