  • the fastening element 61 is guided for fastening a connecting element 65 through its oblong hole 66 and the opening 67.1 in the outer wall 68.1 of the carrier as well as through the opening 67.2 in the outer wall 68.2 of the carrier.
  • the counter-detent means 69.1 and 69.2 arranged on the rear engagement part 63 engage in the detent means 70.1 or 70.2 arranged on the connection element 65 and create a positive-locking connection.
  • the screw 62 has a complementary to the configuration of the opening 67.1 designed guide portion 71.
  • a leaf spring comprehensive spring element 72 is placed and a nut 73 is screwed.
  • the spring element 72 is designed such that it can be arranged, for example, in a recess of the contoured outer surface of the outer wall 68.2. If the fine positioning of the connecting element 65 to take place, is by pressing the nut 73, the rear grip part of the lifted positive connection with the connecting element and the connecting element can be moved with one hand. If the nut 73 is released, engage the counter-locking elements 69.1 and 69.2 in the locking elements 70.1 and 70.2 and restore the positive connection forth. The connecting element 65 is held in its position. If this position coincides with the desired position of the connecting element 65, the fastening element is clamped to the nut 73 and the connecting element 65 is fixed to the outer wall 68.1 of the carrier.
  • FIG. 8 A view of a rear engagement part of the fastener is in the Fig. 8 shown.
  • the rear grip part 63 has a rectangular configuration and is fixedly connected to one end of the screw 62.
  • the counter-locking means 69.1 and 69.2 are formed, which engage in the locking means of the connecting element.
  • a connecting element has been created for a mounting system, which ensures a simple and flexible mounting of the carrier to be connected to the mounting system, as well as subsequent changes and additions to the created construction.
  • a large number of previously complex designs can be created with a few standardized individual parts. Most connections can be made in a one-man assembly with a high level of installation comfort and eliminates the use of special tools or machines.
