The baffle 10 can shield the spiral groove 7 to prevent foreign matter from falling into the spiral groove 7 and affecting the normal movement of the block 9 along the inner wall of the spiral groove 7. A pinching piece 11 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the baffle 10. When the pinching piece 11 is pinched, the movement of the pinching piece 11 will drive the baffle 10 to move.
