Two ribs 133 are respectively formed on two outer side surfaces of the two hooks 132, and the two ribs 133 protrude from the outer side surfaces of the hooks 132. The ribs 133 are gradually reduced in height from the connecting plate 131 to the end of the hook 132 to reinforce the strength of the first connecting member 13.

In one embodiment, the second connecting member 14 is an integral structure, and the body 141 is configured with a sleeve hole 1410, a clamping portion 142 and two clamping channels 143.

The latch protrusion 1421, the latch channel 143, and the connecting hole 144 of the second connecting member 14 are removed, leaving the body 141 and the trepan 1410 thereon.

The shielding plate 12 is formed with a locking hole 120b having a large diameter and penetrating the thickness of the shielding plate 12, and a connecting plate 131 is fitted in the locking hole 120b, and the upper surface thereof is located above the shielding plate or slightly protruded/lower than the upper surface of the shielding plate. The body 141 penetrates the engaging hole 120b from top to bottom and reaches below the engaging hole 120b, and the supporting arm 112 penetrates the sleeve hole 1410 along the axial direction of the sleeve hole 1410.
