A cylindrical tube is rotatably disposed between the inner walls of the sliding sleeve near the top edge. A turntable is fixed to the top of the cylindrical tube. Multiple blades are equidistantly fixed on the outer surface of the turntable along the circumferential direction. A fitting groove is formed on the top of the turntable. A hexagonal hole is formed on the bottom surface of the fitting groove, and the hexagonal hole extends to the bottom of the cylindrical tube.

[0007] Optionally, the tops of both bending channels extend to the top of the sleeve, and the bottoms of both bending channels extend to the outer surfaces of both sides of the sleeve.

[0008] Optionally, an annular groove is formed between the inner walls of the sliding sleeve near the top edge, and an annular ring is fixed to the outer surface of the cylindrical tube and slidably engaged inside the annular groove.

[0009] Optionally, a motor is provided between the inner walls of the sleeve near the bottom edge, and a flange ring connected to the bottom of the sleeve is fixed on the outer surface of the motor.

[0010] Optionally, a support ring is fixed between the inner walls of the sleeve, the top of the support ring is in contact with the bottom of the cylindrical tube, and a tray is fixed to the output end of the motor. The tray is located inside the sleeve, and a hexagonal groove is formed on the top of the tray.

[0011] Optionally, a hexagonal rod is provided between the inner walls of the hexagonal hole, the bottom end of the hexagonal rod is engaged inside the hexagonal groove, and a cover plate is provided between the inner walls of the fitting groove.

[0012] Optionally, the bottom of the sliding sleeve is provided with a bevel near both sides, and a spring retainer is provided inside each of the two bevels. One end of each of the two spring retainers is engaged in the bending channel.
