[0025] The connector and the support plate 13 are snapped together by the first snap-fit ​​member 11 and the second snap-fit ​​member 12. Since they can be disassembled, the connector can be replaced separately when it is damaged, while the support plate 13 does not need to be replaced. This saves costs and solves the problem of high replacement cost of one-piece molded frame in the prior art.

[0026] In this embodiment, the upper sidewall of the support plate 13 is provided with at least one slot, and the lower sidewall of the connector 14 is provided with at least one insert block, which is inserted into the slot. To facilitate positioning the connector 14 on the support plate 13, the insert block is inserted into the slot, thereby placing the connector 14 on the support plate 13 and providing a positioning function.

[0027] In this embodiment, at least one of the slots includes a first slot 1331, a second slot 1332, and a third slot 1333, and at least one of the inserts includes a first insert 1431, a second insert 1432, and a third insert 1433. The first insert 1431 is inserted into the first slot 1331, the second insert 1432 is inserted into the second slot 1332, and the third insert 1433 is inserted into the third slot 1333.
