Each of the ends of the metal upper casing and the metal upper casing and the metal lower casing has a plurality of engaging holes. Each end closure includes a mediate portion, two lateral walls, and an end wall. A plurality of stops are extended from the end wall to form a gap between each stop and the mediate portion and the lateral walls of the end closure, the gap being sized to fittingly receive an associated end of one of the metal upper casing and the metal lower casing. Each of the mediate portion and the lateral walls of the end closure includes an inner side with a plurality of retainers formed thereon.
