Abstract: The invention relates to an insert for connecting an electrical connector to a wall (9) and to a corresponding method. The insert comprises an electrically conductive bolt (1) having a head (3), which extends along a first longitudinal axis (I), and a shaft (4), which is provided with at least one connecting means (5), and a ring (2), which has a through-opening (7) and extends along a second longitudinal axis (II). The head (3) comprises an outer contour which, at least in regions, is produced by the rotation about the first longitudinal axis (I) of a first line (L1), which is curved with a first radius (R1) and spaced apart from the first longitudinal axis (1). The through-opening (7) comprises an inner contour which, at least in regions, is produced by the rotation about the second longitudinal axis (II) of a second line (L2), which is curved with a second radius (R2) and spaced apart from the second longitudinal axis (II).

Abstract: An assembly tool for thread inserts includes a stem, a bush, and a locking means. The stem includes a first external thread extending over at least a portion of the stem and a second thread extending over at least a portion of the stem. The bush includes a thread that is engaged with the second thread of the stem. The locking means releasably locks a rotation of the stem relative to the bush. A length of the stem and a length of the bush complement one another such that the first external thread of the stem protrudes at least partially from the bush.

Abstract: A locking pin with a stud having locking means and retaining means, wherein the stud has at least two separate stud elements, one of which serves as the locking means and the other as the retaining means. The at least two stud elements are rotationally fixed and are connected releasably in axial direction.

Abstract: A fastening assembly, comprising a first element forming a first contact surface and a second element forming a second contact surface, which for producing a clamping force may be moved relative to one another in an axial direction is disclosed. The fastening assembly also comprises a device for performing a relative motion of the two contact surfaces with respect to one another. The second element is provided in the form of a plastically deformable sleeve which may be detachably fastened to the first element designed as a pretensioning element. The disclosure further relates to a disposable sleeve for use in such a fastening assembly, and to a method for fixing and/or clamping at least one in particular multilayer component.

Abstract: A closure element for a detachable, locking storage area in a motor vehicle is disclosed. The closure element comprises at least one clamping element designed for securing to a first component, in particular a plate-type component, by means of an elastic element, and with a handle which is pre-clamped by an elastic element for clamping a second component between the clamping element and the handle.

Abstract: A closure element for locking a storage area in a motor vehicle or the like is disclosed. The closure element comprises a frame in which a gripping element is guided so that it may be displaced in one plane, wherein the gripping element is connected to at least two locking bolts which each have at least a partially triangular cross-section, and which are formed by a stop surface aligned at least approximately parallel to the plane, and by an oblique surface.

Abstract: A closure device for connecting two members which for example have at least in regions the form of plates, includes a closure pin which can be secured, if necessary, loss-proof on the first member and a receiving element which can be disposed on the back side of the second member. The closure pin has a head section for bracing on the front side of the first member and a shaft section which can be guided through an opening of a guidance sleeve disposed in an opening of the first member. The shaft section has threads cooperating with counterthreads of a connecting section of the receiving element. The guidance sleeve on the end associated with the heat section of the closure pin includes a radially expanded head section and at the end facing away from the head section of the closure pin a radially expandible collar-like securing section which is bent round-about outwardly.
