However, in this embodiment, in order to be able to steadily insert the insertion member 130 between a part of the outer edge of the suction member 120 and the placement surface 2, the sharp end of the insertion member 130 is cut along the longitudinal direction. The cross-sectional shape of the surface is formed into a sharp triangular shape. Further, when inserting the insertion member 130 between a part of the outer edge of the suction member 120 and the placement surface 2, the insertion member 130 is inserted while being in contact with the placement surface 2.

Further, although this embodiment is not limited, for example, the supported surface 130c and the guided surface 130d of the insertion member 130 may be configured in the same manner as the supported surface 13c and the guided surface 13d of the insertion member 13. or may have a different configuration. For example, in order to reduce friction with the base portion 11, a notch portion may be formed in the guided surface 130d.

According to the above configuration, the same effects as those of the first embodiment described above can be achieved, and since there is no need to form a protrusion, it can also contribute to reducing the manufacturing cost of the stand.
