a comparative representation of two identical assemblies 2 and 2 ' the locking arrangement, which are mounted on both sides of the luggage box - due to mounting inaccuracy - twisted against each other.

The one assembly 2 (assuming on the left side of the luggage box) is extended, the other assembly 2 ' (on the right side of the luggage box) for reasons of clarity only in excerpts with dashed lines.

The bearing axes of both assemblies should be the same. The rotation refers to the bearing axis AL.

By such a rotation, the operability of the locking arrangement can be adversely affected. Twist-related disadvantages are averted by a threaded clamp connection arrangement. It allows adjustable attachment of the "fork" pivot lever to the control rod.
(Displacement-related disadvantages are averted by a special design of the bearing for receiving the control rod and a special design of the positive connection between the control rod and handle holder).

First, it explains how it can lead to disadvantages in mutually rotated mounted assemblies.

The rotation of both modules takes place around the imaginary bearing axis AL. For clarity, the rotation of the assembly 2 ' opposite the module 2 ' in 18 only by a dashed line for the outer frame contour of the assembly 2 ' indicated.

On the illustration of the dashed line for the "fork" pivot lever and for the "Z" pivot lever in the assembly 2 ' was in 18 omitted (for clarity, as the solid lines for assembly 2 and the dashed lines for assembly 2 ' too narrow).

The rotation requires that the pivot position of the "fork" pivot lever and the "Z" pivot lever in the assembly 2 and 2 ' differ from each other. D. h., By the rotation may lead to a different positioning of the lugs of the "Z" -Schwenkhebels in the recesses of the locking elements: In the case of the assembly 2 can z. B. the noses protrude completely into the recesses, while in the assembly 2 ' the noses only partially - not completely - protrude into the recesses. In the second case, opening the luggage box would release the noses from the recesses rather than in the first case.

To achieve that the noses in the assemblies 2 and 2 ' At the same time release from the recesses, the pivot position of the "fork" - and the "Z" -Schwenkhebels must in the assembly 2 ' be changed so that the same positioning of the lugs in the recesses as in the assembly 2 results.

For this purpose, the "fork" pivot lever is adjusted accordingly at its junction with the control rod by means of a releasable screw-clamp connection arrangement in its pivoting plane.
