[0007] The support pile is arranged above the guide rail base, a guide groove is provided on the surface of the guide rail base, and a moving block sliding in the guide groove is fixed at the bottom of the support pile;

[0008] The functional column is fixed on the side wall of the guide rail base, and a storage bin is fixed on the top of the functional column;

[0009] The cover plate is inserted into the cavity of the storage bin, and a push block is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the cover plate;

[0010] The transition groove is opened on both sides of the supporting piles;
