[0046] Embodiment two:
[0047] In combination Figures 9-12The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the elastic buckle arm (4) is a plastic part or a die casting part which is fixed on the fixed seat (2) by integral molding, and the fixed seat (2) forms an integral whole which cannot be disassembled. Specifically, the elastic buckle arm (4) is a plastic part which is integrally molded on the fixed seat (2) by injection molding, and the fixed seat (2) forms an integral whole which cannot be disassembled. Alternatively, the elastic buckle arm (4) is a die casting part which is integrally molded on the fixed seat (2) by die casting, and the fixed seat (2) forms an integral whole which cannot be disassembled.
[0048] The fixed seat (2) in the second embodiment does not need to be provided with the movable slot (21), and does not need to be assembled, so that the structure of the elastic buckle arm (4) and the fixed seat (2) is more simple, and the parts are less and the cost is low. However, compared with the elastic buckle arm (4) of the metal part, the elastic deformation capacity of the elastic buckle arm (4) of the plastic part is slightly insufficient.
[0049] In addition, the other structures of the second embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment, and the same technical effects can be achieved, and thus will not be described here.
[0050] Of course, the above only describes specific embodiments of the present application, and does not limit the scope of the present application.
