Abstract
A device for securing a clamping element against unintentional release includes a disk-shaped structure penetrated in an axial manner by a bore hole. A driving profile is defined by the bore hole. The disk-shaped structure is positionable on a component such that the bore hole engages a profile on the component to establish a torque-proof coupling of the disk-shaped structure and the component. The disk-shaped structure has a pair of contact surfaces. Each contact surface of the pair of contact surfaces runs radially and is positioned at a respective axial side of the disk-shaped structure. A profile plane of the driving profile is tilted at an angle with respect to a radial plane of each contact surface of the pair of contact surfaces. A related mounting arrangement is also provided.
