(57) A number of elongate objects (4, 4', 5), tapering from their bases, are enclosed
in a box-like unit. A first number of such objects (4, 4') are disposed with their
bases (4a, 4a') at the first end wall (1a) of the unit, and a second number of objects
(5) are disposed with their bases (5a) at the second end wall (1b) of the unit. The
objects are disposed in parallel relationship and the first objects have their noses
disposed at the bases of the second objects, and vice versa. The first objects (4,4')
are disposed in cases (6,7) which each display, at their first end (6a, 7a) a cylindrical
configuration, and at their other end (6b, 7b) display a four-pointed stellar configuration,
and a smooth transition adhering to the tapering of the objects between cylindrical
and stellar configuration. Each respective object is disposed in its associated case
with its base at the cylindrical, first end and its nose at the four-pointed, stellar
end. The second number of objects (5) extends between the cases and supports against
their outsides.
