Abstract
A device for the connection of a band to a further part. The device has a casing (3) fixable to the band, forming a unit with the band and receiving a locking element (1). The locking element (1) in the casing (3) is mounted about an axis (12) so as to be pivotable from a retaining position into a release position and back. The axis (12) is oriented transversely to the longitudinal extension of the band and in parallel to the band plane. The casing (3) is provided, at the front side, with an opening (9) for inserting a retaining clip arranged at the further part. The retaining clip can be brought into a form-fitting connection with the locking element (1) which is in the retaining position.
