Damage to the second body 117 made of a relatively weak rigid material compared to the body 111 can be minimized. In other words, both sides of the second body 117 are prevented from directly contacting the wheels of the traveling vehicle, thereby minimizing damage of the second body 117 by external force.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the second body 117 is formed with an inclined groove 118 penetrating laterally so that the light emitting part 130 can be mounted on the inclined surface 119.
