A one-part male bayonet connector, by means of which at least two components are releasably connectable to one another in a non-destructible manner via an opening, which bayonet connector has a double T-like form in a side view, consisting of a head, a central shaft extending therefrom, and two radial webs extending diametrically from the shaft, which each comprise a fastening means of the bayonet connector facing the head so that, in addition to an interlocking bayonet connection, a frictional connection of the at least two components can be produced between the head and the fastening means of the radial webs.

Bayonet connector, component composite comprising said bayonet connector, a production method for the bayonet connector, and a method for connecting at least two components using said bayonet connector

A tolerance compensation element that compensates for tolerances in the distance between first and second components, includes a thread bolt having a first drive feature, a first thread of a first thread direction and a second thread of a second thread direction. Between the first and the second thread, a protrusion extends from the thread bolt radially to the outside. The element includes a first plastic overmold in the portion of the first thread, which provides a fastening structure for the fastening to the first component, and a second plastic overmold around the protrusion which extends radially to the outside, to provide an abutment portion abutting the second component when in use. A distance of the second plastic overmold to the first plastic overmold is changeable after overcoming a start-up torque between the first plastic overmold and the first thread in longitudinal direction of the thread bolt.

A tolerance compensation arrangement enables fastening two components with compensation of tolerances between the components. The arrangement includes a base element with a passage opening, an inner thread, an adjusting element with a supporting collar and with a thread sleeve having an outer thread which matches the inner thread. On a first front side of the base element, the adjusting element is screwed into the passage opening and on a second front side of the base element, a holding structure faces away from the adjusting element. The holding structure has at least one locking web and a supporting structure, so that via a lateral or an axial insert opening in the front-sided holding structure, a fastening structure configured with two steps is fastenable friction-fit and form-fit in the holding structure an opening in the front-sided holding structure.

An electrical connector includes a connector body that contains an open-topped chamber in which is mounted a stationary, upwardly-directed insulation-severing electrical contact, together with an operating member for displacing an insulated conductor laterally downwardly in the chamber. The operating member includes a flexible intermediate portion that permits the leading end of the operating member to be introduced initially downwardly into the chamber, and subsequently to be diverted upwardly relative to the connector body by a guide surface arranged at the bottom of the chamber. As the leading and trailing ends of the operating member approach their final positions relative to the connector body, the insulation layer of the conductor is severed by knife edges on the stationary contact, and the conductor is brought into electrical engagement contact with the contact.
