- Each sliding path 32 is connected by switch means 36 (FIGS. 4 and 5) to adjacent sliding paths 32 for the purpose of displacement. rotation of the spindles 16 around the first axis A by transfer of the spindles of the organs to the adjacent organs.
- the sliding paths 32 must be regularly cleaned to remove grease residues and any pieces of wire. In the current technique, this maintenance is done manually, as shown in FIG. 8.
- the sliding paths have a relatively small width and are currently cleaned by means of a cotton fabric which is moved in the sliding paths by means for example of a spatula of chemist. This maintenance operation is long and tedious. It also represents a significant risk for the operator who manipulates the spatula to injure itself by moving the cotton fabric in the sliding paths.
