Abstract
A component assembly consists of a first, largely dimensionally stable component having at least two latching protrusions, which are largely diametrically opposed to each other and by which a second, flexible component can be positioned. The second component has cutouts corresponding to the latching protrusions. In an assembled end position, the latching protrusions are positionally fixed in the cutouts. At least one latching protrusion transitions, at the front and at the rear with respect to a positioning direction, into the first component at a largely right angle. Because of the design, very accurate positional fixing between the first component and the second component is possible.
Claims8
A component assembly, comprising:
- a first, largely dimensionally stable, component having at least two latching lugs which are largely diametrically offset with respect to one another;
- and
- a second, flexible, component, wherein the latching lugs are used to position the second component,
- wherein the second component comprises cutouts which correspond to the latching lugs, wherein, in an assembled final position, the latching lugs are positionally fixed in the cutouts,
- wherein at least one latching lug transitions, at a front face and a rear face in a positioning direction, into the first component at a largely right angle, and in the assembled final position, the font face and the rear face extend into the corresponding cutout;
- and
- wherein the at least one latching lug is positioned on the first component such that the first component extends in the positioning direction forward and rearward of the at least one latching lug.
