A ratchet wheel is received in the compartment and includes a plurality of teeth in an outer periphery thereof and a polygonal inner periphery. An arcuate toothed member is mounted in the cavity and includes a plurality of teeth defined on a first side thereof for engaging with the teeth of the ratchet wheel and a second side bearing against a wall defining the cavity.
