The second side elevation 202 is used to connect with the vehicle body support seat 100. The second side elevation 202 is provided with a second mounting hole 203 and a second mounting hole 204. The mounting hole 203 extends to the notch 204 at the edge of the vehicle body mounting bracket 200. In other words, the second mounting hole 203 is not a complete hole, but a hole with a notch.
