[0014] In the above technical solution, the width of the lifting block is adapted to the length of the wire harness sleeve, so that the top of the lifting block can only accommodate one wire harness sleeve.

[0015] A further feature of this invention is that a clearance opening is provided at the top of the end of the connecting channel.

[0016] In the above technical solution: the clearance opening is designed to prevent the end of the first wire harness sleeve from getting stuck as the lifting block moves.
