A detection door 16 is provided to one end of said rods 14, and a photodetecting hole 18 is communicated with the position where it is opened and closed by the door 16. When the hole 18 is opened, this is detected with a light projector and detector, whereby the connection of the bars 3, 3' is announced to the operator. |
