[0031] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the installation assembly 4 comprises a fixed plate 401 made of titanium alloy to avoid seawater corrosion. A plurality of rotating blocks 402 are movably connected to the outer side of the fixed plate 401. An installation groove 404 is formed in the upper end of each of the plurality of rotating blocks 402. Two limiting springs 405 are arranged in the installation groove 404.
