  • the principle of the invention is applicable to very many geometries. Some are more interesting than others, and the invention provides the best advantages in its realization according to the Figures 1, 2 , 3 , 4, 5 , 12, 13, 14 , in particular with a flange 10 having a bearing surface 19 arranged to cooperate with a first bearing surface 8, conical or spherical or the like, of the plate 2, and with a second bearing 9 of the middle part 4, conical or spherical or the like , the bearing surface 19 being of revolution about a flange axis D10 perpendicular to the upper bearing surface 13 of the flange and arranged to coincide, in the assembled position and in the fully screwed position of the screw 6 in the housing 7, with the axis D0 of this housing 7.
  • the provision of the invention makes it possible to have a balance of the moments of the forces applied on the flange, by means of the screw, with very short lever arms (here corresponding to the distance between the axis D0 and the contact surfaces), which makes it possible, at equal torque, to apply a very high force at each point or contact surface, again in comparison with a usual fastening where the lever arm is constituted by the distance between the center of movement and the contact surface, and where, at the same torque moment of screwing, the force applied to each contact surface is much less.
  • the invention thus provides a fixing without play, very stable over time because it is not very sensitive to the effects of accelerations and in particular shocks.
  • the invention provides a shape-free locking game to prevent any recoil of a movement of its box during shocks.
  • the choice of a circular conical flange allows a precise angular centering of the movement and the middle part, and allows the respect of a defined interface of the box with the movement.
