A cooling top is arranged above the protective top forming an intermediate space. The cooling top has a cover and a lid. The cover of the cooling top has a plurality of air nozzles so that cooling air impacts the protective top in the form of jets. At least one fan produces a flow of cooling air in the intermediate space. The distance between the air nozzles increases from the bottom of the cover towards it upper end. The distance between the nozzles is from four to twelve times greater than is the diameter of each nozzle. The cooling lid is also provided with a plurality of air nozzles.
