the three-jaw chuck in the third central position-limit mechanism contacts the outer bottom wall of the second sample fixing groove of the upper end cap; the second connection segment of the upper end cap is arranged in the center hole of the three-jaw chuck; free ends of three claws of the three-jaw chuck in the third central position-limit mechanism contact the external side of the second connection segment of the upper end cap respectively; the fourth central position-limit mechanism and the loading base at the top of the testing machine are assembled; the three-jaw chuck in the fourth central position-limit mechanism contacts the loading base at the top of the testing machine; the upper connector is arranged in the center hole of the three-jaw chuck; free ends of three claws of the three-jaw chuck in the fourth central position-limit mechanism contact the outer side of the upper connector; the second hydraulic mechanism is integrated with the third central position-limit mechanism or the fourth central position-limit mechanism; when the second hydraulic mechanism is integrated with the third central position-limit mechanism, the circular oil cylinder of the second hydraulic mechanism is connected to the connecting board of the third central position-limit mechanism; one end of the second spiral spring is connected to the circular piston of the second hydraulic mechanism, and another end of the second spiral spring is connected to the connecting board of the fourth central position-limit mechanism; when the second hydraulic mechanism is integrated with the fourth central position-limit mechanism, the circular oil cylinder of the second hydraulic mechanism is connected to the connecting board of the fourth central position-limit mechanism;
