Abstract: A plug-in nut has an outer body and an inner body which is mounted in the outer body such that it can be displaced in a rotationally fixed manner. On the inner body, rear-latching lugs are formed on spring arms, which rear-latching lugs fix an attachment component on a carrier part in a variable position of the inner body in relation to the outer body, which variable position is assumed so as to compensate for tolerances, as soon as a screw has been screwed into a screw receiving space of the inner body. This results in a secure hold with very simple handling.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device comprising a base part (2) and a top part (7) that can be joined to the base part (2) via a releasable locking connection (16). The locking connection (16) is provided with at least one catch (18, 19) that is attached to a locking web (20) and engages with a thrust bearing section (21) in a closed position, and a releasing mechanism which acts upon the locking connection (16) and causes the engagement of the or each catch (18, 19) to be canceled when being actuated. The locking connection (16) is also provided with a flexible pressure latch (11) which is recessed in the top part (7). A latch rib (15), under the effect of which the engagement of the or each catch (18, 19) is canceled, is molded onto the side of the pressure latch (11) facing the or each catch (18, 19), whereby a very simple and safe mechanical structure is obtained, resulting in a relatively low production cost.

Abstract: A device for fastening cable is provided, the device including a base having a carrier part for holding the cable. A first connecting unit includes a sleeve connected to the carrier part, and the device further includes a second connecting unit comprising a guide part connected to the carrier part and a holding part releasably engageable with the guide part. The guide part includes an outer sleeve that defines a guide cavity for receiving the holding part. The guide cavity has a cross section that is longer in the longitudinal direction than in the transverse direction. The holding part includes an inner sleeve having a smaller diameter than the diameter of the outer sleeve. The inner sleeve includes at least one engagement element that engages at least one engagement element on the outer sleeve to fasten the cable to the carrier part.

Abstract: In a device for retaining, in particular, a roof strip (34) in a roof channel (44) of a motor vehicle, a base part (1) and a head part (7) are present. On the base part (1) as well as on the head part (7) a rail arrangement is configured (19, 23), by means of which the head part (7) is displaceably guided with respect to the base part (1) between a pre-assembly position and a final assembly position. Furthermore, a locking arrangement (26, 33; 20, 21) is configured on the head part (7) as well as on the base part (1), by means of which the head part (7) is blocked in the final assembly position in relation to the base part (1) at least for a displacement into the pre-assembly position. Thus, due to the floating mount a simple and reliable connection can be achieved for a roof strip (34), particularly on a motor vehicle, even in the case of relatively large dimensional tolerances of a roof channel (44) and of the roof strip (34) itself.

Abstract: The invention relates to a covering device for covering a mounting recess in a cover strip of a vehicle roof. Mounting recesses of this type are, for example, provided for fastening the feet of a roof luggage carrier. The covering device is comprised of an insertion part (1), which can be positioned inside the cover strip (3), and of a hinged cover (2), which is mounted in bearing shells (7) in a manner that enables it to pivot about an axis in the longitudinal direction of the strip and which fills the recess (4) when in a closed position. Said hinged cover comprises both bearing journals (6), which are shaped thereon at both ends, as well as detent journals (11), which can be locked in an open and closed position by means of spring elements (12). These spring elements are shaped onto the insertion part (1) and act upon the detent journals (11).

Abstract: Disclosed is a device for fastening at least one elongate object, comprising a support part (2, 3, 4) and a connecting unit (8) that is provided with a stationary guiding part (9) which is joined to the support part (2, 3, 4) and an accommodating part (12), said accommodating part (12) movably engaging with the guiding part (9) while being able to engage with a fastening element. The guiding part (9) is embodied with an outer sleeve (10) that encloses a hollow guiding space. The cross section of the hollow guiding space is greater in a longitudinal direction than it is in a transversal direction. The accommodating part (12) is provided with an inner sleeve (11) which is movable within the hollow guiding space and whose diameter in the longitudinal direction is smaller than the diameter of the outer sleeve (10) in the longitudinal direction.
