Claim 16:
17. A connection assembly, comprising:
a first component and a second component which are joinable to each other along an axis of relative movement, starting from a separated disassembled state, into an interconnected assembled state, and which are transferable back into the disassembled state, the first component having at least one latching element which surrounds the axis of relative movement in an annular or segment-shaped manner, and the second component having at least one latching element receptacle which surrounds the axis of relative movement in an annular or segment-shaped manner and cooperates with at least two latching portions of the at least one latching element in the assembled state, the latching portions being offset relative to each other when viewed in a circumferential direction; and
an adjusting device that is at least indirectly connected to the first component or to the second component, wherein a relative position of the first component and the second component is adjustable along the axis of relative movement by the adjusting device in the assembled state of the connection assembly,
wherein the at least two latching portions of the at least one latching element are each movable along a movement path starting from a non-deformed rest state, the movement path having at least a component parallel to the axis of relative movement, a first portion of the movement path pointing in a disassembly direction with respect to the rest state, and a second portion of the movement path pointing in an assembly direction opposite the disassembly direction with respect to the rest state, the first portion of the movement path being limited by at least one stop against which the at least one latching element rests in a course of disassembling the first and second components.
