<p>A device for fixing to one another two molded parts (1, 4) has a receiving element of plastic material provided on the first molded part (1) and a locking element (retainer opening 3) to be engaged with the latter and provided on the second molded part (4). The receiving element is formed by a thin-walled sleeve (2) deformable in the radial direction and circular or elliptic in cross-section, the sleeve wall (5) of which has a lateral snap-in hole (6). The locking clement (retainer opening 3) has a locking nose (14) extending at right angles to the direction of insertion (push-in direction E) and engaging with the snap-in hole (6) of the sleeve (2). The locking element (retainer opening 3) is moreover provided with supporting and guiding surfaces for radial support of the sleeve (2), radial, elastic deformation of the sleeve (2) taking place at least when the locking element (retainer opening 3) and the sleeve (2) are joined together. Alternatively a locking element with an externally projecting locking tooth can be inserted into the receiving element. <IMAGE></p> |
