<p>The device (100) has an elastic portion (104) for forming a clamping-connection in the device and exerting force on a component of a pallet in an installation position, where the device is integrally formed. Two sides of the portion are connected with a module region (102). The component is arranged below a bearing surface of the pallet and extends in a longitudinal- or a transverse direction of the pallet. Another component extends parallel to the component. A recess (106) is formed in a region of the device and turned away from the pallet in the position.</p>
