One side of the elastic member 3 (a spring or a disc spring) is placed in the arc-shaped groove I 41, and the other side is placed in the arc-shaped groove II 42. When the baffle 2 rotates on the bottom plate 1, both ends of the elastic member 3 respectively abut against the inner walls of the end sides of the arc-shaped groove I 41 and the arc-shaped groove II 42. When the baffle 2 is rotated to compress the elastic member 3 to a contracted state, the jack I 11 and the jack II 21 are in a communicating state. When the baffle 2 is released, the elastic member 3 rotates the baffle 2 through the elastic acting force, so that the jack I 11 and the jack II 21 are in a misaligned state.
