The lifting module 33 is arranged vertically, with its fixed end connected to the housing 10 and its lifting end connected to the first lifting seat 31, thereby driving the first lifting seat 31 to rise and fall. This allows the first lifting seat 31 to automatically rise and fall relative to the housing 10 via the lifting module 33, thus facilitating the adjustment of the height position of the lifting seat relative to the housing 10.
