Circular holes are formed at corresponding positions on the upper part of the first fixed plate 5 and the second fixed plate 6. Bosses are formed on both sides of the circular hole on one side of the second fixed plate 6. The bosses fit with the first fixed plate 5, so that a slot is formed between the first fixed plate 5 and the second fixed plate 6. The bottom of the first fixed plate 5 and the second fixed plate 6 are fixed to the other end of the slide rail 4. The round holes of the two are coaxial with the long rod of the guide seat 3, and the diameter of the round hole is larger than the outer diameter of the long rod.
