Captive securing means for a screw

A screw securing housing configured for insertion of a screw, comprising:

• a single, one piece integrally formed screw retainer and housing cover,
• wherein the screw retainer is arranged in a shaft of the housing cover, a tangential point of the screw retainer adapted for resting on an outer circumferential surface of a retained screw, wherein the screw retainer is arranged on an inner circumferential surface of the shaft, and wherein the screw retainer extends from the inner circumferential surface of the shaft in a substantially linear manner into a free region of the shaft such that at the tangential point the angle between a direction of extent of the screw retainer and the outer circumferential surface of a retained screw is <90 degrees,
• wherein the screw retainer further extends in a plug-in direction of a retained screw, the screw retainer adapted for resting on a tangential line on the outer circumferential surface of a retained screw, the tangential point being located on the tangential line, and on the tangential line an angle between the direction of extent of the screw retainer and the outer circumferential surface of a retained screw is <90 degrees,
• wherein the screw retainer further has a first bevel that extends in the plug-in direction of a retained screw, the first bevel being arranged on the screw retainer such that the first bevel rests in a substantially parallel manner on the outer circumferential surface which comprises the tangential point, and the first bevel has a radius that corresponds substantially to a radius of a retained screw when inserted into the screw retainer,
• wherein the housing cover is adapted to be securely fastened to a housing by passing a screw through the screw retainer.
