  • the distance between the circlip 18 of the hollow screw 111, when the housing elements are coupled, is less than the total length of the screw 112 comprised between the free face of the head 113 and the free end of its thread and of the nut 19 comprised between its free end and the fins 21.
  • the head 113 abuts against the hollow screw 111 and the fins 21 against the circlip 18 before the uncoupling has not started.
  • the screw 112 thus tends to push the nut 19, the skirt 20 of which emerges from the first bore 117, which causes the two elements 1 and 3 to separate.
