[0026] An O-ring 6 is provided between the top cover 15 and the housing 11 , and between the battery cylinder cover 24 and the battery cylinder 21 ;

[0027] When working, the control box 1 is connected to the battery mechanism 2 through one of the first anti-bending waterproof connectors 18, so as to supply power to the control box 1.
