The shaft 13 passing through the center of the roller causes the roller 12 to be fixed to the middle of the bracket 11 on top of which rods 14 and springs 15 are provided. Also the pushing rod assembly 16 is secured to the bracket 11 by the nuts 167.

[0026] The bracket 11 has shape, and at its left and ligate sides the elongated through slots 111 coaxial with each other are provided. Threaded holes 112 and holes 113 for the displacement of the rod perpendicular to the slots 111 and passing through their upper arcuate surface are provided on the top of the bracket 11. Threaded holes 114 for connection the pushing and its sliding holes 115 pass through the front and rear sides of the bracket 11.

[0027] The roller 12 made of elastic material is fitted in the middle of the bracket 11, and has a bearing hole 122 in which the single direction ball bearing 121 is received.

[0028] The single direction ball bearing 121 is pressed into the bearing hole 122, then the shaft 13 is passed successively through the elongated slot 111 on one side of the bracket 11, the single direction beating 121 and the elongated slot 111 on other side of the bracket 11. The shaft 13 together with the roller 12 can move perpendicularly upward and downward in the slots 111 varying the relative highness between the roller 12 and the bracket 11.

[0029] The cylindrical shaft 13 has a boss 131 provided at each of its both ends in the same direction facing downward, and passes through the elongated slots 111 of the bracket 11 as wells as the bearing 121 received in the roller 12.

[0030] Rods 14 are inserted into the sliding holes of the rods 113 on the top of the bracket 11 with the springs 15 which are placed on the upper bosses as of the rods 14 inserted in the holes 113 respectively.

[0031] The pushing rod assembly 16 consists of a pushing rod head 161, a rear connecting plate 162, spring 163, pushing rod connecting bolts 164, pushing rods 165, a front connecting plate 166 and the fastening nuts 167 with the pushing rod connecting bolts 164 and the pushing rods 165 welded with the front connecting plate 166.

[0032] The pushing rod connecting bolts 164 welded to the front connecting plate 166 are inserted into the holes 114 on the bracket 11 passing through the center of the springs 163, while the pushing rods 165 welded to the front connecting plate 166 are inserted into the sliding holes of the pushing rods 115.
