The other end of the first push spring 11 is pressed against the side of the first positioning plug 8 and the second positioning plug 9.

[0031] It is worth mentioning that the first positioning plug 8 and the second positioning plug 9 can be supported and positioned by the positioning rod 10 and the positioning hole 12, so that the first positioning plug 8 and the second positioning plug 9 can move smoothly, and the first positioning plug 8 and the second positioning plug 9 can be pushed by the first push spring 11, so that the first positioning plug 8 and the second positioning plug 9 can be plugged into the base 4, thereby realizing automatic locking of the container;

[0032] The first electromagnet 18 is disposed inside the first positioning plug-in block 8 and the second positioning plug-in block 9;

[0033] It is worth noting that the first electromagnet 18 can improve the stability of the first positioning plug 8 and the second positioning plug 9, so as to facilitate the positioning and fixing of the base 4;
