[0009] Furthermore, in the process of the sealing movable part being forced to move outward, the first reserved steel wire rope drives the docking movable part to slide along the inner wall of the reserved nesting part, and the docking movable part has a ring-shaped structure.
[0010] Furthermore, the heat conduction structure is provided with a second reserved steel wire rope, and the second reserved steel wire rope is docked at the rear side of the docking movable part, a guide reserved groove is opened at the inner end of the reserved nested part, and a nested connecting block is nested and installed on the outer side of the guide reserved groove, and the nested connecting block and the end of the second reserved steel wire rope are docked with each other, a return spring is docked at the lower end of the nested connecting block, and the return spring and the inner wall of the guide reserved groove are docked with each other; an external reserved cooling fin is docked and installed on the inner side of the reserved nested part, and the external reserved cooling fin is connected to an external power supply, and the outer sides of the nested connecting block and the external reserved cooling fin are fixedly connected with contact switches.
