Abstract

In a combination of a securing eye, which has a fastening portion and an eye portion, and a holding plate, the fastening portion includes a first fastening part, which incorporates the eye portion, and a second fastening part. The first fastening part has a fastening element which can be brought into a positive connecting effect with the holding plate by a rotational and/or translational mounting movement of the first fastening part. The second fastening part can be fastened to the holding plate and, in the fastened state, prevents the positive connection between the first fastening part and the holding plate from being released.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A combination of a securing eye and a holding plate, wherein the securing eye has a fastening portion and an eye portion, wherein the fastening portion comprises a first fastening part, which incorporates the eye portion, and a second fastening part, wherein the first fastening part has a fastening element which can be brought into a positive connecting effect with the holding plate by means of a rotational and/or translational mounting movement of the first fastening part, and wherein the second fastening part can be fastened to the holding plate and, in the fastened state, prevents the positive connection between the first fastening part and the holding plate from being released. 
     
     
         2 . The combination as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the fastening element comprises at least one fastening hook which, in order to form the positive connection, engages behind an opening in the holding plate. 
     
     
         3 . The combination as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the second fastening part has at least one fastening hook which, with the second fastening part in the fastened state, engages behind an opening in the holding plate. 
     
     
         4 . The combination as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the second fastening part has at least one latching element in order to form a latching connection with the holding plate. 
     
     
         5 . The combination as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the fastening element of the first fastening part and/or the portion, incorporating the eye portion, of the first fastening part is arranged between the fastening hook and the latching element of the second fastening part in the fastened state thereof. 
     
     
         6 . The combination as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the first fastening part supports a load, acting on the eye portion, on the fastening hook of the second fastening part. 
     
     
         7 . The combination as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the first fastening part forms at least a second fastening hook which engages behind the fastening hook of the second fastening part. 
     
     
         8 . The combination as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the shortest distance between the eye portion and the first fastening hook of the first fastening element is smaller than the shortest distance between the eye portion and fastening hook of the second fastening part. 
     
     
         9 . The combination as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the holding plate has at least two openings for receiving the fastening element and/or the second fastening hook of the first fastening part and/or the fastening hook of the second fastening part. 
     
     
         10 . The combination as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first fastening part and the second fastening part are connected to one another in a moveable manner. 
     
     
         11 . The combination as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the second fastening part has a prong which is guided in an opening of the first fastening part, wherein the prong forms a projection serving as a stop. 
     
     
         12 . The combination as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the eye portion comprises a ring component which is arranged in a rotationally movable manner in a receptacle of the first fastening part and/or between the first fastening part and the holding plate. 
     
     
         13 . The combination as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein the ring component is held in the receptacle by means of a latching projection which is temporarily elastically deformed when inserting the ring component into the receptacle. 
     
     
         14 . The combination as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first fastening part and/or the eye portion are formed from metal and the second fastening part is formed from plastic. 
     
     
         15 . A securing eye, comprising:
 an eye component; and   a fastening component including a first fastening part, which incorporates the eye portion, and a second fastening part, wherein the first fastening part has a fastening element which is configured to be brought into a positive connecting effect with a holding plate via a rotational and/or translational mounting movement of the first fastening part, and wherein the second fastening part is configured to be fastened to the holding plate and, in the fastened state, prevents the positive connection between the first fastening part and the holding plate from being released, wherein   the second fastening part is configured to extend through a portion of the first fastening part at least prior to connection of the securing eye to the holding plate during attachment thereto.   
     
     
         16 . The combination as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first fastening part is made of platinum. 
     
     
         17 . The combination as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first fastening part has a cross-section lying on a plane normal to the holding plate when the securing eye is attached to the holding plate that has a portion that first extends horizontally, then curves upward vertically, and then curves sideways horizontally again in the same direction as the initial horizontal extension. 
     
     
         18 . A securing eye, comprising:
 an eye component; and   a fastening component including a first fastening part, which incorporates the eye portion, and a second fastening part, wherein the first fastening part has a fastening element which is configured to be brought into a positive connecting effect with a holding plate via a rotational and/or translational mounting movement of the first fastening part, and wherein the second fastening part is configured to be fastened to the holding plate and, in the fastened state, prevents the positive connection between the first fastening part and the holding plate from being released, wherein   the securing eye is configured such that at least one of the first part or the second part completely extends about a portion of the other of the first part or the second part at least prior to connection of the securing eye to the holding plate during attachment thereto.
