Patent ID: 8496394

Claim:
A connecting arrangement connecting at least one first and one second component to each other through radial and axial forces, comprising: a bolt on which a thread is formed, the bolt extending in a fixed position with respect to the first component from the first component through a through opening in the second component, wherein the thread extends out of the through opening in the second component exteriorly beyond an abutment surface of the second component; a clamping nut screwed onto the thread of the bolt; a cone pair comprising an inner cone with a split for enabling an expansion of the inner cone, and an outer cone, wherein the inner cone or the outer cone forms at least a portion of a conical clamping element, the conical clamping element having a first portion positioned exterior to the through opening and between the components and the clamping nut and a second portion extending into the through opening; and a locking nut or at least one locking screw screwed at least partially onto or into, respectively, the first portion of the conical clamping element by means of a threaded coupling such that the locking nut or at least one locking screw is exterior to the second component and faces the abutment surface of the second component, wherein the locking nut or the at least one locking screw is clamped against the abutment surface of the second component by the clamping nut to limit the moveability of the conical clamping element when the clamping nut is screwed onto the thread of the bolt, and wherein the connecting arrangement connects the first component and the second component through radial and axial forces.
