  • Publication number: 20230389698
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cross-brace (4) having an elongate rod portion (41) and two claws (42), in the case of which a second grip-around portion (423) of the claws (42) can be moved relative to a first grip-around portion (422) of the claws (42) between an open position, in which a rod-form element is accommodated by the claws (42), or can be removed from the claws (42), and a closed position, in which the claws (42) can grip around the rod-form element. The first grip-around portion (422) and the second grip-around portion (423) are designed here such that they grip around the rod-form element in the closed position in such a manner that a gap (S) remains between a free end (4224) of the first grip-around portion (422) and a free end (4231) of the second grip-around portion (423). Furthermore, the claws (42) comprise an arresting mechanism, which is designed to keep the first grip-around portion (422) and the second grip-around portion (423) in the closed position.
