A member with a round cross-section is fitted between the blockings. An oscillating lever with the capability of swinging on an axis is placed on the body. The oscillating lever is made in the form of a triangle, whose top corresponds with the axis of the swinging of the oscillating lever. At the lower corners of the triangle are placed profiled blockings, whose axes are parallel to the axis of swinging of the oscillating lever, placed under the connecting hole. The blocking, which is installed on the upper part of the body is placed above the axis of the oscillating lever.
