  • Patent number: 8342460
    Abstract: A bracket part and a securing part are provided to connect an add-on part to a carrier part. The securing part is displaceable relative to the bracket part. The bracket part includes a carrier part receptacle that receives an edge region of the carrier part that is adjacent a carrier-part opening. In a final mounting arrangement, the securing part secures the bracket part via a mounting operation that can be performed by displacing the bracket part and the securing part. The final mounting arrangement can be easily checked for proper execution.

  • Patent number: 8240964
    Abstract: A sheet metal nut including a cage part (1) that is fitted with a bottom plate (2), supporting edge sections, and opposite side plates (4, 5). Contacting final sections (15, 16) are disposed across from the supporting edge sections and grip the peripheral zones of a hole along with the supporting edge sections in a mounted arrangement of the sheet metal nut. The supporting edge sections are molded onto the bottom plate (2) while a separate securing part (10) is joined to the side plates (4, 5) and is equipped with two leg plates (11, 12) that are located between the side plates (4, 5) and extend from a base region (13) towards the supporting edge sections (24, 25) at an increasing distance from each other. The contacting final sections (15, 16) are molded onto one respective free end of a leg plate (11, 12), are aligned with their front sides directed towards one another, and lie across from the supporting edge sections (24, 25).

  • Publication number: 20120085874
    Abstract: To connect an add-on part (3) to a carrier part (43), a bracket part (1) and a securing part (2) are provided. The securing part (2) is displaceable relative to the bracket part (1). The bracket part (1) comprises a carrier part receptacle (20, 21) that receives an edge region of the carrier part (43) that is adjacent a carrier-part opening (44). In the final mounting arrangement, the securing part (2) is pushed in, a securing pin (33) being inserted in the now-free carrier-part opening (44), and secures the bracket part (1). This makes for a mounting operation that can be performed merely by displacing the bracket part (1) and the securing part (2) and is easy to check for proper execution.

  • Patent number: 7568868
    Abstract: A plug-in device for connecting a support element (27) to an add-on piece (26). The device includes a plug-in element which can be inserted into a recess of the support element (27) and includes at least one laterally projecting bearing section (6, 7) serving to bear externally against the support element (27), and an abutment region (3). An inner element (12) has a threaded region (14) for receiving a screw (31) and at least one counter-element (22, 23). The inner element (12) is received in the plug-in element (1) so as to be axially displaceable. A threaded shank (32) of the screw (31) comes into engagement with the abutment region (3), which forms a stop for the screw (31) in the direction of insertion. The add-on piece (26) can thus be fixed at a distance from the support element (27) to secure the add-on piece to the support element.

  • Publication number: 20080247842
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device to be connected to a screw. Said device comprises a plurality of connecting elements (5, 6, 7) which have respective openings (14) and which can be engaged with a thread of the screw. Said connecting elements (5, 6, 7), in a preassembly configuration, are loose pieces. Along the edge of the opening (14) of the connecting elements (5, 6, 7), a pitch section (15) of a threaded structure is configured. A connecting system (8) allows to maintain, in a final assembly configuration, the connecting elements (5, 6, 7) in a predetermined spatial relationship to each other, thereby increasing the variability of use of the device.

  • Patent number: 5762299
    Abstract: A clip for the retention of tubes, especially corrugated tubes, consisting of a clamping strap (2) for receiving the tube (7), said clamping strap being connected in a C-shape manner to a baseplate (1) and being capable of springing open elastically, and of anchors (8), formed on the baseplate (1), for anchoring the clip in a hole of a carrier body, wherein the anchors (8) are formed from two profile bars (9) and (10) which rest flat against one another and which are connected to one another at their lower end by a web (11) and have claws (15) at their side edges (14), one profile bar (9) being provided with a bearing plate (16) which is formed on at right angles and which is connected at its free end, via deformable webs (17), to the free end of the baseplate (1) at an acute angle (.alpha.), and the other profile bar (10) being designed, in rectilinear prolongation, as a lever (18) which rests flush against the rear wall (5) of the oblique clamping strap (2).
