The splash-proof top cover 2 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 32 through the connecting groove 23. The splash-proof top cover 2 can be rotated around the connecting shaft 32. The movable seat 3 slides tightly along the inner wall of the sliding groove 4. A limit groove 31 is opened inside the movable seat 3. A limit rod 41 is provided inside the sliding groove 4. The limit rod 41 slides tightly along the inner wall of the limit groove 31. The design of the limit rod 41 and the limit groove 31 can make the movement of the movable seat 3 more stable and prevent the movable seat 3 from disengaging from the sliding groove 4. A compression spring 42 is sleeved on the outer side of the limit rod 41. The compression spring 42 can push the movable seat 3. An ear plate 22 is provided, and a positioning plate 5 is located on the lower end face of the ear plate 22. The positioning plate 5 slides and engages with the positioning groove 7. A locking groove 51 is provided on the outer side of the positioning plate 5. The locking groove 51 engages with the locking block 8. The design of the locking block 8 and the locking groove 51 can fix the position of the positioning plate 5. A cavity 61 is provided inside the fixing seat 6.
