[0008] In a possible design, extension shafts are fixedly connected to both sides of the rack, and sliding grooves are provided on both inner walls of the connection box, and the extension shafts are slidably connected in the sliding grooves.

[0009] In a possible design, an elastic element for resetting is fixedly connected between the bottom of the mounting block and the top of the sleeve 1, and the elastic element is sleeved on the circumferential outer wall of the connecting rod.

[0010] In a possible design, a handle for facilitating the rotation of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the other side of the circumferential outer wall of the rotating shaft.

[0011] In a possible design, a groove is formed at the bottom of the upper die, and a plurality of fixing slots are formed at the top of the lower die and the top of the groove.
