The at least a first receptacle is configured by means of a fixed upper portion and a lower portion connected thereto, where both portions comprise a first side and a second side having a semicircular shape that are arranged opposite and parallel to one another and perpendicular to the central shaft, such that they allow the passage of the central shaft, with a first end and a second end, a plurality of first rods with respective opposite ends secured to the sides of the upper portion and a plurality of second rods with respective opposite ends secured to the sides of the lower portion. Said first rods and second rods are arranged adjacent to and successively separated from one another by a first and a second separating spaces respectively, all of them being located according to the longitudinal direction of the central shaft, and where the lower portion comprises first connecting means for connecting the first end and second end of the sides thereof to the first end and second end of the respective sides of the upper portion. Said first connecting means are movable at least at the first end of both sides, such that they allow opening or closing the at least a first receptacle through the lower portion thereof.2/11 3 5 14 / 10, 6 4 x 7 15 Fig. 2
