The support rod 1 is provided with a limit frame 8 below the connecting block 4, and a plurality of slide grooves are opened on the side of the limit frame 8. There are three slide grooves, the middle of which is a straight groove, and curved grooves are symmetrically provided on both sides of the straight groove. A cylinder 9 is installed in the limit frame 8, and a connecting rod 10 is installed on the piston of the cylinder 9. The connecting rod 10 slides through the straight groove on the side of the limit frame 8. Protective shells 11 are symmetrically slidably connected on both sides of the connecting rod 10.
