The one-way rotating ring 20 has an arc groove 201 on the upper part, and the one-way rotating ring 20 has an outer circumferential surface, and the arc groove 201 is depressed downward on the outer circumferential surface, and the sunken character wheel 21 has a long hole 210, and the long hole 210 includes a straight channel and two semicircular channels connected at both ends of the straight channel, and the semicircular channels are adapted to the outer circumferential surface contour of the rotating shaft 13. The upward direction of the long hole 210 is the same as the notch direction of the arc groove 201.

[0026] The sunken character wheel 21 is provided with a connecting column a212, and a positioning claw a19 whose end can abut against the arc groove 201 is rotatably provided on the sunken character wheel 21. When the end of the positioning claw a19 abuts against the arc groove 201, the sunken character wheel 21 slides upward on the rotating shaft 13 through the long strip hole 210, that is, it sinks upward. The connecting column a212 is connected to a special-shaped spring a22, which is an L-shaped strip spring. The outer end of the special-shaped spring a22 abuts against the side of the positioning claw a19 to ensure that the end of the positioning claw a19 abuts against the one-way rotating ring 20.

[0027] The sunken character wheel 21 has a mounting groove a211, and the positioning claw a19, the one-way rotating ring 20, the connecting column a212 and the special-shaped spring a22 are all located inside the mounting groove a211, making the structure compact and occupying little space.
