A portion of the engaging part disposed between the two axes is of resiliently compressible construction to accommodate movement of the engaging part between the two stable conditions. The portion of the engaging part is provided with a formation which biases the portion to deflect towards one lateral side thereof as the engaging part moves between the two stable conditions.
