Abstract
A pre-strain unit for a T-bolt during a release process of two components connected by the T-bolt comprises a slider and a frame for providing a linear guiding for said slider during the release process. The pre-strain unit also includes means for pre-straining said slider in said frame against a head of said T-bolt to keep, during the release process, at least a part of the T-bolt protruding from the two connected components.
Claims6
A pre-strain unit for a T-bolt during a release process of two components connected by the T-bolt, the unit comprising:
- a slider;
- a frame for providing a linear guiding for said slider during the release process;
- and
- means for pre-straining said slider in said frame against a head of said T-bolt to keep, during the release process, at least a part of the T-bolt protruding from the two components,
- said frame further comprising two opposite guiding parts adapted to receive said head of said T-bolt there between to provide a guidance for said head of the T-bolt when straining the means for pre-straining.
A rack for receiving multiple modules and configured to be mounted to a main frame, the rack comprising:
- a frame structure with at least one opening;
- and
- a pre-strain unit, the pre-strain unit having:
- a slider,
- a frame for providing a linear guiding for said slider during a release process, and
- means for pre-straining said slider in said frame against a head of said T-bolt to keep, during the release process, at least a part of the T-bolt protruding from the rack and main frame,
- said frame further comprising two opposite guiding parts adapted to receive said head of said T-bolt there between to provide a guidance for said head of the T-bolt when straining the means for pre-straining,
- wherein the pre-strain unit is mountable to said frame structure at a position of said opening to receive a T-bolt through said opening and to provide a pre-strain force on the T-bolt, the T-bolt being configured to establish the connection between said rack and said main frame.
