The first row of receptacles is movable either by pivoting from a storage position to a working position or can be slid from a withdrawn storage position in the housing to an exposed working position. The second row of receptacles is mounted in the housing for pivoting between the storage and working position. In one embodiment of the invention, a coupling member is provided so that both rows pivot simultaneously between the working and storage position.
