Le corps principal de bracket comporte : une fente pour fixer un fil et une ouverture d'introduction qui communique avec la fente. L'obturateur est disposé de manière rétractable entre la fente et l'ouverture d'introduction du corps principal de bracket. Le corps principal de bracket comporte une paroi de guidage extérieure qui forme la fente et l'ouverture d'introduction. L'obturateur est inséré par un trou traversant qui est disposé dans la paroi de guidage extérieure. Lorsque l'obturateur doit être fermé, une partie de pointe de l'obturateur qui fait saillie depuis le trou d'insertion jusqu'au côté fente est déplacée dans une première direction, qui est orientée du côté d'ouverture d'introduction vers un côté de partie d'ouverture, de façon à couvrir la fente.
