Abstract: A guide carriage for a cutting device for cutting a cylindrical workpiece. The carriage has a tool carrier for the cutting device and a tensioning member which wraps around the workpiece and is guided over a tensioning element. A tensioning device disposed on a chassis acts on the tensioning element. The tensioning device exerts a tensioning force on the tensioning member via the tensioning element. The tensioning member, a belt, is secured non-displaceably on the periphery of the workpiece. The chassis is movable in the peripheral direction of the workpiece along the belt. The belt bears a connecting element, by which the belt is closed. The connecting element is not fully traversable by the guide carriage. In order to be able to execute a full cut over the periphery, the tool carrier enables the cutting device to be mounted in a first and alternatively a second working position.

Abstract: A fastener (1) includes a screw (2) and a supporting element (3). The screw (2) includes a head (4), a shank (8) and a threaded portion (12). The threaded portion (12) is located on the shank (8). The threaded portion (12) includes a thread having an outer diameter (14). The threaded portion (12) includes a thread runout (25) facing the head (4) of the screw (2). The shank (8) includes a shank portion (10) having a diameter (11) which is smaller than the outer diameter (14) of the thread. The supporting element (3) is captively connected to the screw (2), and it includes at least one narrow location (27). The narrow location (27) has a diameter (28) which is smaller than the outer diameter (14) of the thread. The narrow location (27) includes at least one surface element (30, 35) facing the thread runout (25) and forming an enveloping cone (31) enveloping the thread runout (25) to prevent the supporting element (3) from getting clamped at the thread runout (25) of the screw (2).
