  • plastic material is also advantageous in order to obtain flexible tabs 70 which are elastically deformable.
  • the flexible tabs 70 ensure, after assembly, a non-removable fixing of the sleeve 46 on the head 18 of the guide 16.
  • the head 18 of the guide 16 is configured so that the flexible tabs 70 have a radially "e" space relative to the cup 12 which is determined to obtain a non-removable fixing of the sleeve 46 with the guide 16.
  • said space "e” is determined to obtain a non-removable fixing between the sleeve 46 and the guide 16, the flexible tabs 70 not being able to disengage radially from the openings 54 once the cup 12 has been fitted as soon as the The space "e" is then insufficient.
  • the assembly of the cup 12 After having assembled the sleeve 46 and the guide 16 in order to fix them by elastic interlocking, the assembly of the cup 12 then locks the flexible tabs 70 in the fixing position.
  • the space “e” is insufficient for the tabs 70 to be able to move radially by disengaging from the openings 54 of the sleeve 46.
  • such a space “e” also makes it possible to avoid any contact of the flexible tabs 70 with the cup 12 thanks to which, in the absence of interference, the torque to be applied to cause the displacement of the cup 12 is not unaffected.
  • the elastic interlocking fixing means could have only one flexible tab 70.
  • said at least one lower face 78 for immobilizing said at least one flexible tab 70 forming the fixing means comprises at least one notch 86.
  • said lower face 78 for immobilizing the deformable flexible tab 70 comprises a plurality of parallel notches 86 intended to cooperate with the lower edge 58 of the opening 54 of the sleeve 46.
