Abstract
A plug-in device for connecting a support element () to an add-on piece (). The device includes a plug-in element which can be inserted into a recess of the support element () and includes at least one laterally projecting bearing section () serving to bear externally against the support element (), and an abutment region (). An inner element () has a threaded region () for receiving a screw () and at least one counter-element (). The inner element () is received in the plug-in element () so as to be axially displaceable. A threaded shank () of the screw () comes into engagement with the abutment region (), which forms a stop for the screw () in the direction of insertion. The add-on piece () can thus be fixed at a distance from the support element () to secure the add-on piece to the support element.
