Abstract: A connection assembly includes first and second components joinable along an axis of relative movement, starting from a separated disassembled state, into an interconnected assembled state, and transferable back into the disassembled state. The first component has a latching element and the second component has a latching element receptacle which cooperates with latching portions of the latching element in the assembled state. The latching portions are offset relative to each other when viewed in a circumferential direction, and are each movable along a movement path starting from a non-deformed rest state. A first portion of the movement path points in a disassembly direction, and a second portion of the movement path points in an assembly direction opposite the disassembly direction. The first portion of the movement path is limited by a stop against which the latching element rests in a course of disassembling the components.

Abstract: A profiled strip for connecting a windshield of a motor vehicle to a cowl plenum cover includes an attachment portion, a latching portion and a water drainage element. The attachment portion is connectable to the windshield and has an attachment side facing the windshield and an underside facing away from the windshield. The latching portion has a latching groove configured to latchingly receive a rib of the cowl plenum cover and has an outside facing away from the latching groove. The latching groove is bounded by an inner leg adjacent the attachment portion, an outer leg opposite the inner leg, and a bottom portion connecting the inner and outer legs. The water drainage element is disposed on the latching portion in a section along a longitudinal extent of the profiled strip.

Abstract: A connection assembly includes first and second components which, starting from a separated disassembled state, are joinable to each other along a plane of relative movement parallel to respective planes of extension of the components into an interconnected assembled state, and are transferrable back into the disassembled state. The first component has a latching element on either side of the plane of relative movement, and the second component has two latching element receptacles. In the assembled state, each of the latching element receptacles cooperates with a respective latching portion of a respective one of the latching elements. The latching portions are movable along a movement path starting from a non-deformed rest state. A first portion of the movement path pointing in a disassembly direction with respect to the rest state is limited by stop surfaces against which the respective latching elements rest in a course of disassembling the components.

Abstract: A strip assembly includes a profiled plastic strip having a latching recess configured to receive a mounting rib of an air inlet panel, and a single-piece protective plastic strip which is mechanically releasably latched in the latching recess at least in some sections along the profiled plastic strip. The strip assembly includes a first and a second strip section. The profiled plastic strip is configured such that the profiled plastic strip extends only along the first strip section. The protective plastic strip is configured such that it extends along both the first and the second strip section.

Abstract: A profile strip arrangement includes a profile strip having first and second connecting areas. The first connecting area has a connecting section configured to establish a connection to an inside of a windshield and the second connecting area has a U-shaped or V-shaped material section having two legs which delimit a groove-shaped receiving area configured to receive a latching section of a windshield cowl cover. As seen in a cross section of the profile strip, at least a partial layer of the connecting section, which is oriented in parallel to a top of the connecting section facing the windshield, and at least a partial layer of a bottom section of the U-shaped or V-shaped material section together form a continuous base section of the profile strip which extends in one plane and from which the legs of the U-shaped or V-shaped material section project.

Abstract: A strip assembly includes a profiled plastic strip having a latching recess configured to receive a mounting rib of an air inlet panel, and a single-piece protective plastic strip which is mechanically releasably latched in the latching recess at least in some sections along the profiled plastic strip. The strip assembly includes a first and a second strip section. The profiled plastic strip is configured such that the profiled plastic strip extends only along the first strip section. The protective plastic strip is configured such that it extends along both the first and the second strip section.

Abstract: A mounting device is useable with a strip arrangement comprising a profile strip arrangeable or arranged at an edge area of a window pane of a motor vehicle and comprising a transport protection strip, wherein the transport protection strip is arranged at least with a portion of its cross section in a receiving area of the profile strip. The mounting device has a guide-in area configured to guide a free end of the strip arrangement into the mounting device, and a separation area configured to separate the transport protection strip from the profile strip.

Abstract: A profile strip arrangement includes a profile strip having a first connecting area configured to establish a connection to an edge area of a windshield of a motor vehicle and having a second connecting area configured to establish a connection to a vehicle part that is adjacent to the windshield. A reinforcement strip is detachably connected to the profile strip. The reinforcement strip has an insertion section that is configured to be inserted into and remain permanently in the second connecting area. The reinforcement strip also has a connecting section configured to establish a connection to the adjacent vehicle part.

Abstract: A profiled strip includes a first connecting area configured to connect to an edge area of a windshield of a motor vehicle, and a second connecting area configured to connect to a component to be adjoined to the windshield. The second connecting area has an open profile along at least one first partial section of a lengthwise extension of the profiled strip, which allows a connecting element of the adjoining component to be inserted into a receiving area delimited by the open profile. The second connecting area has a closed profile along at least one second partial section of the lengthwise extension of the profiled strip, which prevents the insertion of the connecting element into the closed profile.
