ATTACHMENT SYSTEM FOR ELONGATED FASTENING ELEMENTS
In an attachment system for elongated, transversely stiff fastening elements, the fastening elements are centered and rotatably fixed in place on fastening bolts of connecting units by terminal eyelets. The terminal eyelets open in the transverse direction and have insertable bushings that receive the bolts.
1 . An attachment system for elongated rod-like fastening elements, at least one end of the fastening elements is provided with an eyelet open in the transverse direction, the attachment system comprising:
a cylindrical fastening bolt of a connecting unit, wherein the bolt is guided in the eyelet by means of a bushing inserted into the eyelet and axially fixed relative to the eyelet;
the bushing is axially supported against the eyelet by means of a terminal stop shoulder that is spaced from the stop body;
the bushing is supported against the fastening bolt by means of a terminal latching shoulder that engages in a latching groove of the fastening bolt;
wherein the eyelet is clamped between the terminal stop shoulder of the bushing and an opposing stop shoulder of the stop body with the bushing inserted, supported axially and elastically in the direction toward the bushing via the latching shoulder; and
wherein the latching shoulder engages the latching groove of the fastening bolt and is spaced axially apart from the terminal stop shoulder of the bushing.
2 . An attachment system according to claim 1 , wherein the latching shoulder consists of latching fingers that proceed from the stop shoulder and conically converge toward their free end.
3 . An attachment system according to claim 1 further comprising a shim that is provided at least on one side of the eyelet.
4 . An attachment system according to claim 3 , wherein the shim is provided between the stop shoulder adjacent to the connecting unit and the eyelet.
5 . An attachment system according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening bolts allocated to the two connecting units extend in an opposing, parallel direction, that the rod-shaped fastening element assumes a crossed initial position relative to the parallel fastening bolts during assembly in the initial position, and that the wall thickness of the bushings reflects the radial backlash that is given in the initial assembly position due to crossing and must be offset for the assembled state.
