  • Patent number: 10082170
    Abstract: A fastening device is provided for fastening a structural part consisting of a carbon-fiber reinforced plastic, in particular a cell of a vehicle, to a component, in particular a chassis component of a vehicle. In order to provide a fastening device which ensures a secure fastening of structural parts consisting of a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic to other vehicle components, a first connecting element is mounted on the structural part, on which first connecting element a second connecting element can be mounted. The first connecting element is connected to the structural part by an adhesive layer and has a protruding bush which passes through a bore in the structural part and which projects with its free end beyond the structural part.
