Abstract
A device for connecting two components, particularly furniture plates, includes a cup-shaped assembly element and an actuating element rotatably mounted in the assembly element, wherein the actuating element serves to hold a connecting element in the assembly element, and wherein, in the mounted state of the assembly element, the actuating element can be turned from the outside by a tool. The cup-shaped assembly element has a guide duct which extends obliquely relative to the axis of rotation of the actuation element and is directed toward the actuating element. The guide duct through which the tool is to be introduced for turning the actuating element provides the person carrying out the assembly with the precise position of the screwdriver relative to the actuating element.
