Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012175096A1] The invention relates to a connecting element for securing a holder for a pipe or cable or bundle of cables, or an actuating rod or a hinge part, or a handle or hook or another fitting in a rectangular opening or undercut slot of a first wall or a first aluminium profile. The connecting element comprises a head (14) having an adjoining neck (16) that has a rectangular, in particular square external cross-section to be received in a clip-like manner such as to be secured against torsion and possibly displacement in the rectangular opening (18) in the thin wall, such as a sheet metal angle (24), or to be received in a clip-like manner such as to be secured against torsion in the slot in the profile. Said connecting element is characterised by a base (26) from which two legs (26), reaching back to the neck (32), extend and have grooved feet (30) for support on the edge (32) of the wall opening (18) in one plate (20) or the undercut of the slot in one profile, the head (14) consisting of a rectangular plate in which a slot (34) may be located to receive a flat cable or to receive a cable strip (36), or alternatively consisting of a hinge part, a handle, a hook, or another fitting part.
