The leg part has a post suspended from a center of a lower face of the head part, at least three projections which are radially extended from the post in a diametrical direction and connected to the lower face of the head part at their upper ends, and engaging pieces which are extended from these projections in a circumferential direction to be respectively positioned between the projections. The engaging pieces are connected to the head part at their upper ends, and provided with slits between their circumferentially extended ends and the opposed projections.
