A device for accommodating a component, comprising:

• a housing comprising:
• a housing wall, which delimits an interior space of the housing, and
• a passage portion in the housing wall,
• the component to be accommodated in the interior space comprising:
• a sensing element with an actuating portion and a holding portion which is mechanically connected to said actuating portion and which has at least one latching hook with a latching lug, and
• a holder, with respect to which the sensing element is movable and which has a latching edge,
• wherein, when the component is accommodated in the interior space,
• the actuating portion of the sensing element, in a first state, is arranged in the passage portion of the housing wall, and
• to reach a second state, wherein the actuating portion of the sensing element is located in the interior space, is displaceable into the interior space so that the latching lug of the at least one latching hook engages over the latching edge of the holder to form a latching connection.
