Furthermore, the outlet module 2 also includes a guide rod 24 arranged parallel to the lead screw 23, one end of the slider 22 away from the lead screw 23 is movably mounted on the guide rod 24, and the lead screw 23 is provided with a guide thread 231 for engaging the slider 22, so that the rotation of the lead screw 23 drives the slider 22 to move along the length direction of the guide rod 24. The setting of the slider 22 is added, so that the lead tube 21 has a movable function, and the outlet position can be adjusted when the lead tube 21 is outlet, so that the outlet is smoother.

[0023] Preferably, the guide threads 231 are arranged in an interlaced cycle in the shape of an "8", so that the rotation of the lead screw 23 drives the slider 22 to move back and forth along the length direction of the guide rod 24.
