- a contact surface of the locking element ments can be formed profiled.
- a corresponding profiling can be found on the locking receptacle.
- the profiling may be formed regularly on the contact surface and on the latching receptacle.
- an improved protection against unintentional release is achieved by providing the latching connection in the mounting position of the connection arrangement.
- this results in a variable locking position.
- the detent position can be taken regardless of the geometric conditions and in particular dimensions of the housing wall thickness.
- the locking connection is insofar as variable formed as the connection arrangement as a whole.
