The conductor is associated with a forced guidance element in a positive fit, engaging the peripheral side of the conductor and resulting in a defined winding or unwinding of the conductor during a rotational movement of the rotationable housing part. The forced guidance element comprises a toothing that engages into the respective recesses in the conductor and may be assigned to the rotatable housing part, the stationary housing part, or both.
