Abstract

See full text

A securing device for securing a component to an object comprises a fastening element having an engagement section and having a longitudinal axis, wherein the fastening element is selectively connectable to a counter element by actuating the engagement section; and a cover sleeve which is movably supported at the fastening element between a closed position in which the cover sleeve prevents an actuation of the engagement section and an open position in which the cover sleeve allows an actuation of the engagement section. At least one blocking element is provided between the fastening element and the cover sleeve, said blocking element being freely movable in the closed position of the cover sleeve between a latched position in which it blocks the cover sleeve in the closed position and an unlatched position in which it allows a movement of the cover sleeve into the open position. The blocking element is further supported between the fastening element and the cover sleeve such that, when the cover sleeve is in the closed position, it adopts the latched position due to gravity in a normal alignment of the longitudinal axis of the fastening element and it adopts the unlatched position due to gravity in an installation alignment of the longitudinal axis of the fastening element perpendicular to the normal alignment.
