Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a connecting assembly (10) and a method for releasably attaching a mount-on part (12) to a carrier (14), having a receiving element (16) which includes at least one elastically deformable latching element (18) that protrudes inwards, and a holding pin (20) which includes a shank (22) that is insertable into the receiving element (16) in the direction of a longitudinal axis (A), the shank (22) having an external thread (24) formed thereon which in a locking condition of the connecting assembly (10) establishes a form-fitting connection with the latching element (18). The connecting assembly (10) has a production state, in which the receiving element (16) and the holding pin (20) are connected with each other in one piece. Preferably, one of the holding pin (20) and the receiving element (16) includes a spring section (48) which in the locking condition acts axially upon the holding pin (20) in relation to the receiving element (16) to ensure a defined latching engagement between the external thread (24) and the latching element (18).
