The offset arrangement of the clamping elevations and of the clamping openings allows the units to be connected with clamping action such that they are offset in relation to one another. The clamping openings may be connected to a trough which produces an accommodating space for items which are to be inserted therein, it being possible for the accommodating space to be closed off using a sticker as a cover.
