  • Publication number: 20040129186
    Abstract: An assembly fitting has a first fitting part (1), which is provided for attachment to a first component, and a second fitting part (10), which is provided for attachment to a second component. The first fitting part (1) and the second fitting part (10) can be connected to one another by means of a bayonet coupling, whereby a sleeve part (2) of the bayonet coupling is formed in the first fitting part (1) and an insertion part (11) of the bayonet coupling is formed in the second fitting part (10). The insertion part (11) has a number of radial tongues (12). The sleeve part (2) has an inner sleeve opening (4) and tongue openings (5) radially formed thereon, corresponding to the number of tongues (12). Each radial tongue (12) has at least one lug (13), whose outer radial distance from a center of the insertion part (14) essentially lies on a circle and the shape of the inner sleeve opening (4) corresponds essentially at least in part to this circle.
