[0076] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The sliding groove 313 and the connecting rod 32 belong to the limiting device 3. The limiting device 3 comprises a contracted state and an expanded state,
[0077] As shown in Figure 5 , the limiting device 3 in the contracted state limits the cover plate 2 to move between the closed position and the intermediate position, wherein the cover plate 2 in the intermediate position is located between the cover plate 2 in the open position and the cover plate 2 in the closed position,
[0078] As shown in Figure 6 , the limiting device 3 in the expanded state is configured to enable the cover plate 2 to move to the open position.
