Since the limiting axis is located on the obliquely lower side of the first axis away from the second mounting cavity 102 (it should be noted that the obliquely lower side is described from the position shown in Figure 5 When the first cover body 5 is opened, the first cover body 5 rotates around the first axis, the end of the first cover body 5 away from the second cover body 6 rotates around the first axis towards the second cover body 6 (rotates in the counterclockwise direction shown in Figure 5 When the first cover body 5 is opened, the first cover body 5 rotates around the first axis, the end of the first cover body 5 away from the second cover body 6 rotates around the first axis towards the second cover body 6 (rotates in the counterclockwise direction shown in Figure 9 When the first cover body 5 is opened, the first cover body 5 rotates around the first axis, the end of the first cover body 5 away from the second cover body 6 rotates around the first axis towards the second cover body 6 (rotates in the counterclockwise direction shown in
