The width of the slit 42 may also be along the distance from the through hole 41. The direction decreases first and then increases or decreases first and then decreases.

The cross section of the through hole 41 is any one of a waist shape, a circular shape, an elliptical shape, and a polygonal shape. A waist hole is used in the present invention. The cross-sectional area of the perforations 41 is from 10 square millimeters to 25 square millimeters. Since the number of the wires 31 to be passed through is three, the area of the cross section of the perforation 41 is selected to be 21 mm 2 .

Specifically, the through hole 41 is disposed on a side of the mounting seat 4 away from the axis.

By arranging the through hole 41 on the side of the mount 4 away from the axis while providing the slit 42 communicating with the edge of the mount 4, the wire can be pulled from the slit 42 when the wire 31 is passed through the through hole 41. The 31 is inserted into the perforation 41 without the direct passage through the perforations 41, which is convenient to install. Moreover, since the minimum width of the slit 42 is smaller than the outer diameter of the wire 31, the wire 31 can be easily contacted with the inner wall of the outer sleeve 1 when it is placed in the through hole 41, so that friction with the inner wall of the outer sleeve 1 is not generated, so that the wire is made 31 The outer side is worn and causes a short circuit.

It can be understood that the mounting seat 4 is composed of a soft material, and the specific mounting seat 4 can be a silicone piece, a rubber piece, a polyvinyl chloride piece, Thermoplastic polyurethane parts or trimethyl benzoyl parts.
