- first locking means provided on said first free ends to prevent opening of said first cylindrical member;
- first fastening means provided on a rear edge of said first cylindrical member across said first seam;
- a second case section with a second cylindrical member made of a second metal sheet, opposite second free ends of which abut each other at a second seam;
- second locking means provided on said second free ends to prevent opening of said second cylindrical member;
