An anchor point () for a fastening element (), such as a cable tie, includes a substantially flat anchor plate () and a resilient element () connected thereto, which in turn has at least two locking tongues (). The anchor plate has a substantially circular disc shape. The resilient element is preferably designed as a plastic loop in the shape of an omega and exerts its resilient action primarily in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the anchor plate. Via an opening in the anchor plate a fastening element/cable tie can be passed through the anchor plate and is deflected by the locking tongues or the resilient element so that it passes through a second opening again to the surface. By pulling on the cable tie, the locking tongues are spread apart by compression of the resilient element and are fixed in or behind the opening of a surface.

Anchor point

A retaining device for attachment of objects to a wall surface includes a main body, a fastening arrangement, and a cover lockable to the main body that arches over the fastening arrangement. The main body has a bottom side, that faces the wall during mounting, and a top side, that faces away and includes a retaining ring. The fastening arrangement includes a fastener and a centering cap which fixes the fastener. The bottom side of the main body has a circular-ring-shaped surface, on inner and outer edges of which, in each case, one closed encircling web is provided which faces away from the bottom side. Two passage openings are provided in the circular-ring surface between the top and bottom sides. When attached, the main body is pressed onto the wall and an adhesive is injected through one of the passage openings until it emerges again at the other passage opening.

Holding device and method for attaching same

A holding device () for holding a component (), the holding device () being convertible from a component holding mode into a component release mode by magnetic force. The holding device () for holding the component () has a movable detent element (), the position of which is not influenced by the magnetic force. A method for releasing a snap-in connection between a holding device () and a component () is also provided, having the following steps: generating a magnetic field in the vicinity of the holding device (); and applying a force that moves the holding device () and the component () apart from each other to release the snap-in connection.
