The housings are formed in and between encasing tubes (22) which rest upon a lower plate (10). After placing a control bar in the housing, a removable unit (30) is inserted which comprises a baseplate (34) surrounding the tip of the bar, four holders (32) resting on this baseplate, and spacer wedges (36) separating the holders. One assembly is then placed in each holder (32).
