A limiting rod 9 is integrally formed in the mounting groove 8 and is arranged radially along the mounting ring 4. The snap-fit ​​block 5 has a limiting hole corresponding to the limiting rod 9. The snap-fit ​​block 5 is slidably arranged in the mounting groove 8. A first elastic element 10 is sleeved on the limiting rod 9. The first elastic element 10 has elastic potential energy to push the snap-fit ​​block 5 closer to the limiting sleeve 2.

[0021] One side of the slot 6 has an integrally formed arc-shaped lead-out surface 11 that connects to the inner wall of the limiting sleeve 2. The arc-shaped lead-out surface 11 is spirally arranged away from the limiting sleeve 2. The side wall of the snap-fit ​​block 5 has a rounded corner 12 corresponding to the arc-shaped lead-out surface 11. The end of the snap-fit ​​block 5 away from the protective cover body 3 has an integrally formed inclined smooth surface corresponding to the limiting sleeve 2.

[0022] In the above embodiment, the first elastic element 10 pushes the snap-fit ​​block 5 toward the side wall of the limiting sleeve 2, so that the snap-fit ​​block 5 can be inserted into the slot 6.
