[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a retarder housing is provided with a cast ceramic core. The cast ceramic core 1 has multiple positioning holes 5 inside, which penetrate the upper and lower surfaces of the cast ceramic core 1. A positioning block 2 is slidably inserted into the inner side of the positioning hole 5. A cast insert 3 is fixed to the upper surface of the positioning block 2, and a positioning rod 4 is fixed to the lower surface of the positioning block 2. Two symmetrically distributed second slots 10 are provided on the outer side of the bottom end of the positioning rod 4. Two anti-detachment plates 6 are provided at the bottom of the positioning hole 5. A first anti-detachment locking plate 7 and a second anti-detachment locking plate 8 are fixed to one end of the anti-detachment plate 6. The first anti-detachment locking plate 7 and the second anti-detachment locking plate 8 are located between the positioning rod 4 and the inner wall of the positioning hole 5. The positioning rod 4 is restricted in position by the anti-detachment plate 6, the first anti-detachment locking plate 7, and the second anti-detachment locking plate 8, so as to ensure that the positioning block 2, the cast insert 3, and the positioning rod 4 will not separate from the cast ceramic core 1.

[0021] The bottom inner side of the positioning hole 5 is provided with two symmetrically distributed first slots 9. The two first slots 9 are aligned with the two second slots 10 and are the same size. The tops of the first anti-detachment locking plate 7 and the second anti-detachment locking plate 8 are both bent downward in a V-shape. The bent tops of the first anti-detachment locking plate 7 and the second anti-detachment locking plate 8 are respectively locked into the inner side of the first slot 9 and the second slot 10. The position of the positioning rod 4 is restricted by the second anti-detachment locking plate 8, while the first anti-detachment locking plate 7 ensures that the second anti-detachment locking plate 8 and the anti-detachment plate 6 will not fall between the positioning rod 4 and the casting ceramic core 1.

[0022] The anti-detachment plate 6 is L-shaped and its bottom end is parallel to and fits against the bottom surface of the casting ceramic core 1. The bottom end of the anti-detachment plate 6 is connected to the casting ceramic core 1 by screws. The first anti-detachment snap plate 7 and the second anti-detachment snap plate 8 at the top of the same anti-detachment plate 6 are the same size, and the positions of the first anti-detachment snap plate 7 and the second anti-detachment snap plate 8 are symmetrical to each other.
