Connecting element with spanner-less release comprises bolt and geometrically defined balls which by housing and tube are brought into defined position and held there

摘要

The connecting element comprises a bolt (1) and geometrically defined balls (2) which by a housing (4) and a tube (3) are brought into a defined position and held there. The bolt is introduced into the mechanism consisting of the balls, housing and tube by its contour which conforms to the geometrically defined balls, with a form fit being created between the bolt and the aforesaid mechanism. As the diameter of the mechanism is greater than that of the bore in the connecting halves (6,7) a form fit is created between the connecting element and connecting partners like a screw head.
