In this embodiment, all parts that come into contact with the silicone are made of non-stick silicone materials such as tetrafluoroethylene.
[0036] The upper surface of the upper module 1 is slidably connected to a control board 2, and a spacing line 12 is provided on the upper surface of the upper module 1.
