  • Patent number: 11588272
    Abstract: A connection assembly including a first connector comprising a post, and a second connector. A body of the second connector comprises a fastening passage. The post can penetrate into said fastening passage by moving in a fastening direction, so as to reach a fastening position. In the fastening position, the post cannot move in a disassembly direction opposite to the fastening direction. The connectors are configured in such a manner that an external action applied solely to the post allows the post to pass from the fastening position to a free position, in which the post can move in translation in the disassembly direction. In fastening position, the post is in a predetermined angular range. The connection assembly further comprises angular returning means to return the post into said predetermined angular range relative to the axis of the post, when the post is fastened to a body of the first connector.

  • Patent number: 8844869
    Abstract: An assembly includes a structural wall and a composite wall extending in the extension of the structural wall and defining a second section positioned facing a first section of the wall. The assembly includes an elongated traction element received in a first passage made in the structural wall, the first passage opening out into the first section and into a cell made in the structural wall. The composite wall defines a second passage opening out into the second section and receiving the elongated element. The assembly includes a locking member added onto the elongated element. The composite wall delimits an access cavity connecting an outer surface of the composite wall to the second passage. The locking member is received into the access cavity.
