The side end cap 11 covers the side of the main body 10 where the socket 100 is disposed, and an opening 110 for exposing the socket 100 is formed at a position of the side end cap 11 corresponding to the socket 100.

The movable door assembly 2 includes a movable door 20 and a rubber hinge 21, the movable door 20 is detachably fastened to the opening 110 of the side end cover 11, the rubber hinge 21 protrudes out of one side of the movable door 20 and is provided with a strip-shaped limiting hole 210 corresponding to the limiting pin 102, the rubber hinge 21 is sleeved on the limiting pin 102 of the housing 1 through the limiting hole 210, the rubber hinge 21 is slidably limited in the chute 101 of the housing 1, and the thickness of the rubber hinge 21 is smaller than the depth of the chute 101.

The fixing plate 3 has a strip-shaped main plate 30, a fixing hole 300 for the limit pin 102 to pass through is formed in a position of the main plate 30 corresponding to the limit pin 102 on the housing 1, and the fixing plate 3 limits the rubber hinge 21 below the fixing plate 3 by sleeving the fixing hole 300 on the limit pin 102. The main plate 30 of the fixing piece 3 is provided with a through hole 301 at a position corresponding to the screw hole 12 of the housing 1. In the embodiment, in order to make the rubber hinge 21 smoothly move under the fixing plate 3 without interference of the edge of the main plate 30, and to increase the bending strength of the fixing plate 3, the side of the main plate 30 close to the movable door 20 is curved upward to form the front reinforcing edge 31, and due to the curved transition of the connection between the front reinforcing edge 31 and the main plate 30, no interference occurs when the rubber hinge 21 reciprocates. In the present embodiment, in order to further enhance the bending strength of the fixing sheet 3, the other side of the main plate 3 is also bent upward in an arc shape to form a rear reinforcing edge 32.

Referring to fig. 3 in conjunction with fig. 2, the flat head screw 4 is inserted through the through hole 301 of the fixing plate 3 and then screwed into the screw hole 12 of the housing 1 to fix the fixing plate 3 above the rubber hinge 21, and since the thickness of the rubber hinge 21 is smaller than the depth of the sliding groove 101, the smooth sliding of the rubber hinge 21 is not affected.
