Abstract
A connection arrangement includes a first and a second assembly, and an elastically deformable locking element disposed on the first assembly. The locking element is configured to releasably interlock the two assemblies and, during mounting of the two assemblies, to deform into a mounting condition and, after completion of the mounting, to form an undercut which counteracts detachment of the two assemblies. The first assembly has a stop which is movable between an operative position, which assists in maintaining the undercut of the locking element and in which the locking element bears against the stop and/or in which the locking element is deformable against the stop, and a detachment position, in which the stop, in relation to the operative position, is spaced further apart from the locking element and in which the locking element is deformable into a detachment condition for detachment of the two assemblies.
