• the long object housed within the first housing is pulled out from the first housing when the movable pulley moves upward from the first position toward the second position, and the long object pulled out from the first housing is housed in the first housing when the movable pulley moves downward from the second position toward the first position, and
• the first weight is separated from the movable pulley when the movable pulley moves between the first position and the third position, and moves together with the movable pulley when the movable pulley moves between the third position and the second position.
