Said slits 13 , 13 are desirable to make between projecting pieces 2 , 2 . . . so as not to collide with them. At the back part of projecting part 5 a leading groove 7 is formed to be continuously connected to sliding parts 8 , 6'. In forming the said leading groove 7 , it may be organized with a little distance apart from the upper end of the projecting part by covering a case on the projecting part 5. An oblong thorough hole 10 facing the leading groove 7 is made at a place near the upper end of the projecting part 5. With a foot 14 of the knob 11 fitted thereon. Two connecting plates 8 , 9 , thin and narrow in width, with flexibility and force-transmittability, made of such as metal, plastic or the like that are contained in the said leading groove are made to fix by cauking or screw at the rear end thereof to the forward end of the foot 14 of the said knob 11, and forward ends thereof are made to get down along sliding parts 6, 6' respectively to protrude from slits 13, 13 made on the plate body 1. An elevating plate 4 is shaped in largeness nearly as large as the area occupied by planted projecting pieces 2, 2 . . . , all of which are inserted in thorough holes 3, 3 . . . having a diameter same as or a little larger than that of roots of projecting pieces 2, 2 . . . inserted, and is fixed to forward ends of said connecting plates 8 , 9 protruding from slits 13 , 13 .
The said oblong thorough hole 10 is made in length same as the moving distance of connecting plates 8, 9 and formed in accordance with the elevating distance of the elevating plate 4 . The elevating plate 4 is desirable to get down near to the forward end of projecting pieces 2 , 2 . . . and to rise up to the contact point with the lower surface of the plate body 1 .
