Connecting element for fastening panels etc. on appliances

摘要

A connecting element is for a detachable fastening of base panels, front plates etc. to an appliance housing or a piece of furniture. It features a mounting tube which can be either connected to the panel part (5) or form an integral part of it. A pivot, which is inserted into the tube, can be shifted between a locking and an unlocking position. In the locking position, the pivot can be locked with the tube while the pivot end projects partially out of the tube. The protruding pivot end forms the bearing axis held in the housing or cabinet etc. wall.
